A Russian official recently, In talk
with the representative Of a Chicago
paper assured him that Russia was
strong enough Notwithstanding her
agrarlan troubles, and the Aslatic sit
uation, 10 take part In any happenings
on the Balkan. and that she would
have her full share In whatever devel-
oped. Tie added, that Russia had no

The trouble, however, is that by no
demonstration and by no representa-
ton, can the Turkish government be
made to take reform efforts seriously.
The only reform that government Is
capable Of, is the determination OF the
dissatisfied element. II this mode Of

elsewhere is to be prevented, more
than a naval demonstration must be
resorted to. 1t may be doubted that
Russia at present Is strong enough to
make war for the Macedonians. Many
regard the internal condition of the en-

be guarantee Of the continuance Of
such peace as IS common to the Bal

New lolk evening POST.
BY a curious and incalculable mis-
fortune, The parliament which is proro-

get rather little credit for its imposing

oyershadowed other interests that the
London Education bill the Irish Land
bill and the ratification Of the Sugar
convention are already almost forgot

1t can only be said that Mr. Balfour
pushed them through by strict par

tons Of many Of his supporters. In
deed, until Mr.. Chamberlain made his
witty defence OF the Sugar convention.

SNAKE BITE CURE.

But This One Has a Different Name
from the Usual Kind. a.. .e.-. >.
The anti-venomous serum is produced
from pure venom by injecting the lat.
ter into a horse, first In quantities small
enough to be harmless, then gradually
in larger and larger doses, until, after
some hundred and fifty NEGOTIATIONS, ex.
tending over sixteen or seventeen
months, the horse can receive seven
times month, and without injury
venGns to kill two hundred horses not
thus immunized. The most deadly
snakes may do their worst upon that
horse and never trouble him. He can
get no harm from any Of them, for this
thing stands demonstrated-that immu-
nifty against the cobra means immunity
against all manner of serpents In the
world, SO that when horse, or dog, or
man, is rendered immune against cobra
venom (Which Is the most intense
three times more virulent than that of
the rattlesnake)-he is by that fact
immune against all other kinds OF
venom.
Needless to say, the demand for this
anti-venomous serum is increasing
steadily. already England sends ten
thousand francs worth of 1t every year
to her East Indian possessions, where
q, 900 lives are annually lost as result
of snake bites, some of which may now
be spared.-McClure's Magazine,

SOME QUEER YORK.

1t is pity that everybody doesn't
seem inclined to let us have the trade
Of the world. OF course we could do
it better than anybody else, do those
who might trade with us more good
than anybody else. and incidentally
make a little money for ourselves. But
we have Jealous rivals. Yesterday it
was announced that all British territory
in South Africa has put into operation
a preferential tariff system in favor of
Great Britain, similar to that employed
by Canada since 1897. Under that law
Canada's purchases Of merchandise
from the United Kingdom have in
creased from $4,000, 900 in 1896 to $685.
o0o, 200 in 1903. The plan has been under
Legislative consideration in South Africa
since the Bloemfontein conference last
March. and has finally been adopted,
together with a new general tariff for
the South African Customs Union.
The rate Of rebate in favor Of produce
tons or manufactures of the United
Kingdom is 25 per cent. on most ar
ticles bearing an ad valorem duty. but
articles taxed less than 1-2 per cent,
are made free from the mother country.
Similar concessions will be granted to
any British colony. protectorate or
possession which grants equivalent re-
ciprocal privileges to the South African
Customs Union.
This performance will cost us some
thing, as our exports to British Africa
amount TO over sso,OoO,OOO a year.
Strange that people don't know and
won't do what is best for themselves.

FIGHTING OVER THE OLD BAT
TIES


TIES.
Every one has noticed how old cusA
toms, old institutions, old beliefs decay.
A busy man at sixty, perhaps even
younger, suddenly discovers that what
he learned as gospel in his youth is no
longer in style. Nobody thinks that
now" he is told-probably by his chill
dren. Or, that is gone by" he hears.
1t is not always true, however, that the
new thing in vogue is something un-
heard of by mankind before. 1t is one
of the peculiar phases of life that very
often the so-called new ideas are in re-
ality very mature, and that the world
is forever fighting old battles over
again.
Some merriment has been caused in
England, among the 'old fogy" set, by
Mr.. Chamberlain's denunciation of free
trade principles as ancient shibbo-
leths." How can this be, the old fogies
ask? Free trade did not exist in Eng
land until about thirty-five years ago,
and then 1t burst in upon the world as
an innovation of the most radical and
startling character. On the other hand,
the very ideas which Mr.. Chamberlain
now presents as novel were, as distin-
guished Liberal statesman says, "out of
date when Mr.. Chamberlain was a
schoolboy." Here, of course, is an I'M
commonly good illustration of the gro
tesque effect sometimes produced by

soME YAEKEE rHREFT.

All the Yankees don't live in New
England. There are some in Des Moines.
Iowa. They have figured that the post
age paid on letters sent out of Des
Sfolnes is annually $4,000 more than
the weight of the letters in the aggre-
gate requires. That is. the people pay
two cents postage on thousands of let
tiers that are not in weight up to the
limit that the government is willing to
carry for a two-cent stamp. Why
should not, they ask, this paid-fOr
weight be supplied in some form, and
not wasted? The proposal is that all
persons should inclose in their letters
that are under weight printed slip
calling attention to the attractions and
advantages Of the city. Presumably,
the Chamber of Commerce or some 9TH
er interested organization would supply
the material. Quite long prospectus
could be printed on half an ounce of
thin paper.
This is a truly thrifty scheme, and
there is much in it. Why should not
the Yankees Of New Haven initiate the
Yankees of Des Moines?

sERMAsY,s GETTING ALONG

No wonder Germany is getting along.
She is paying special attention to the
science and art of getting along. For
instance. the development of industrial
education in Germany during the last
quarter of century has been remark
able. Il appears that while in 1882
there were only 90 industrial schools in
Saxony. there are now 2S7. In Hesse
there is not a single village, no matter
how small, in the whole country which
has not an industrial school of some
kind, generally with workshops for act
ual practice. In Baden fully 10000 ap-
orentices, are learning how to make
clocks. and cotton. woollen and silk
goods. The Prussian State railroads
have schools in all the large cities for
the purpose of teaching apprentices
every subject which has anything to do
with the building or repairing of rail-
road cars, etc. Each apprentice in these
schools receives remuneration of
twenty cents a day, which is put out at
interest until the end of his three years,
when he comes into possession of both
principal and interest. In all Germany
pupils Of both sexes are taught forty
four different trades and industries.
The Germans would cor uer the
world if there were enough of them and
if they were situated right AS it is,
they are getting their full share.
