There have been similar crises before in
the history of Russia, and most prob
ably the same panacea will be sought
1T is il this direction that the peace
of Europe and the peace of Asia is
more iuminently threatened than even
by the slow aggressive policy of the

verge of a social catastrophe, nothing
can save her but war. The Russo
Turkish war of the seventies, though
in the main object unsuccessful was
undoubtedly brought about by the
spirit of Nihilism which had premeated
the empire. Nihilism did not desire war
by any means, but the government saw
that a war would occupy the attention
of the people, and the Nihilist once the
war began, was as ready to. fight for
holy Russia, as the most ardent sup

Russia, if war comes in the Balkan

The statement of the Builders and

very important one. The employment
of Asiatic labor upon government con-

the protest is well taken, In the Ter

carried out with Asiatic labor now.
Federal contracts, however, have been
so carried out On the other hand Ash

EDUCATION OF AN ANGLER.
A Craft That Calls for Wide Expe-
rience and Somewhat of
Diplomacy.

Anyone can bait a hook, toss it into
the water and jerk out a hungry fish, but
few. indeed, are gifted with the art OF
Turing a fulfilled trout from his lair with
deity manipulated feathers fiuttering
and falling-as if zephyr-borne, over
and upon a CLASSY water. This knack OF
gift in a devotee of the art, which is
recognized the world over by the frater-
nifty as a delicate and gentle one, is d
matter of adaptation and education,
which is not at its diploma stage until
the student has reached the standard OF
a postgraduate in the art of fy-fishine
a mountain brook, says the Illustrated
Sporting News.
Few laymen outside the craft oil
anglers are aware of the character ano
extent of the subjects to be studied as
the education of the angler progresses.
He should be conversant not only with
the literature of the art, but also have a
knowledge Of the many thousand de-
vices of capture, and of the habits, habi-
tats, and even the idiosyncratic moods
of the fish he seeks. For they, of all
creatures of the earth, the air and the
water, are the most erratic, particular.

CARELESSNESS IN DRESS.
Characteristic of Some Men of Wealt
That Is Merely an At
feCtatfOn.

Many wealthy men affect carelessness
in dress, and it may truly be said that
they can afford to do anything, but they
are the very men who require that their
employees shall dress so well that the
public will imagine they are well paid,
a V Success. The first impression
made by a man in business life is the
most important. When he enters the
presence of another man he studies him
no less than he is being studied in turn.
Each unconsciously takes the measure
of the other, and each quickly forms an
opinion.
The Importance of making that first
impression a favorable one cannot be
overestimated. 1t helps toward the OBJ
ject to be gained. The nicely "groomed,"
clean-cutman, ~dressedin good taste, and
CARRYING himself with that confident air
of gentility which is ~inseparable from
good attire, feels sure of his ground,
and can talk with the man who is his
superior in a business without
displaying those many little evidences
of uncouthness which creeps out in ones
dress, speech and name If you have
an important part to play in your bust
ness life, remember that you must dress
up to it. The shabby and the shiftless,
the unshaven and unrefined cannot rise
above the mediocre. They are the men
who fill the want" columns of news
papers and who ply those callings
where no previous experience is re-
quired," and where applicants are in
formed that 500 a week can be made
without the slightest knowledge, effort
or skill.

news of Plus death, Protestants believed
that the papacy which was claimed to have
come down from Peter was at an end. The
questions arose, will the government not
take possession of the vatican and st. Pc
tiers? VIII they, can they, allow the eardi-
nails to assemble freely in c~onclaye and elect
a successor to Plus TX? Will not the gov
eminent raise the flag of Savoy and secure a
spiritual head of its own selection who will
be amenable to the house of Savoy? Such
might nave been the case had Victor EN-
manuel lived, or had the papacy had at its
head a man of less diplomatic skill, less tact,
than Cardinal Pecci. He carefully avoided
everything that could give offence, but was
determined there should be no delay that
he could prevent in assembling the conclave,
which should be ten days after the death
of a pope. At that time the papal tiara was
not a crown to be coveted.
Out of sixty-four cardinals three were alb
sent. Two were il and McClosky only ar

But two ballots could be cast in one day
morning and evening. Two-thirds majority
was necessary to an election. If no choice
were made, a little smoke emitted from the
burned ballots told the fact to the outside,
waiting people. The first balloting gave

% votes to Cardinal Pecci-he was seen to
be greatly disturbed-his face expressed
dismay and grief. At the second balloting
the name of Pecci was called 3S times
great tears rolled down his cheeks-his pen
dropped from his trembling hands. Before
the third balloting he begged the cardinals
to drop his name and choose one more wor-
thy. The third balloting began-44 votes
were recorded against his name. He rose
declaring his unworthiness. Il am old, am
feeble. / shall soon end my days; it is not
the papacy, it is death that should be given
me. Finally he bowed to what his brother
cardinals declared to be the Divine will
and gave Leo XIII. for his pontiical name.
He trembled at the threshold of this I'M
known glory, where he must be solitary, so
high above those who were nearest to him.
The hour was very bitter. There was not a
stain upon his name. In statecraft he ranked
with Gladstone and Bismarck-when they
passed away he stood alone as the greatest
statesman in Europe. By his uniform,
steady line of action, his aims were attended
by remarkable success. Leo's benevolence,
his self-denial surpassed even his zeal and
worldly wisdom. To aid the poor he
stocked all the streams he could control
with fish. The fruits of his gardens he or
dered to be preserved and dealt out to the
needy.
A late empress craved an audience with
him-had the poor taste to denounce GER
tain doctrines of the church. Leo listened
with gentle courtesy. On leaving, she was

OF INSECTS.


Everyone in a general way knows OF
the astonishing muscular power m
ployed by insects. and Of the real u
de force which they execute either In
the pursuit of prey or in
themselves against their enemies. Al
the same time n rarely has a precise
idea of the strength of these insects be-
cause there are few standards OF COM
p~arison, although nothing is simpler
than to make a correct valuation OF their
strength, says Public Opinion.
The wing strength of insects is known
because of the work of Felix Plateau
and De Lucy, who showed that these
little creatures could not raise a weight
much heavier than themselves, no mat
ter what the surface of their wings
During the course of these experiments
a very interesting fact was discovered,
namely, that the size of the wing de-
creases as the weight and size OF the
animal increases, a fact which explains
the slow, heavy flight Of the beetle and
the swift, light movement of the gnat.
The case is entirely different, how
ever, where the creature moves on a
solid surface where its six feet may OBJ
tain points of support In this Ease we
can approximately calculate the force
exercised. Take, for example, a fly by
the wings, leaving the legs free so h a
they may seize and raise a match. II a
man wished to perform relatively equal
labor he would have to raise a beam
24A feet long by 14h inches square.
The earwig harnessed to a small chari-
OF, drags without difficulty eight match
es, which for a large ~percheron horse
would mean dragging $50 beams as long
and thick as himself. The man VINO
leaps the 300 meters of the Ethel tower
is merely repeating the action OF the
flea. which can leap 200 times its own
height. Finally the Hercules is obliged
to raise so large locomotives to equal
the relative strength of an oyster,
which, in closing its valves, exercises a
force of Is Kilograms. Thus it is a mucn
more simple thing to calculate the
strength of insects than to equal 1t, and
our modern athletes have yet a long
road to travel before they can compete
with animals occupying very humpie
positions in the living world.

Consul A. l.. NJ. Gottschalk, writing

Sharks exist in large numbers on this

seem to permit of their being caught as

rived from them. A number of persons
here believe that they could deal with
