Russian Writer Declares 1t OBstructs
 True Progress.

Russian Writer Declares 1t Obstructs True Progress.
 Count Leo Tolstoi condemns the re- cent zemstvo agitation in Russia cul- minating in demand for a constitu- tional government as obstructive of real progress in the czar's dominions, says Philadelphia special dispatch to the New York World.
 The North American cabIed Count Tolstoi asking his views on the mean ing, scope and probable result of the Zemstvo movement. Tn his reply the Russian author-philosopher says:
 t"The present political agitation among the Russian people, resulting in Q direct appeal to the czar by represent atives of the zemstvos, aims to bring about a restriction of the despotiSm that now prevails and the establish ment of representative government. What the results of the movement will be cannot be foreseen. The aspiration is not new, but the expression is.
 '"The question seems to be this, Will the leaders of the agitation achieve what they desire or anything approach ing it or will their efforts expend them selves in stirring up public protest without result?
 '"The country and the people are too great and the gulf between the pres ent government and the people in some respects is too vast to permit sensi ble forecast at this time. But declare that, whatever the outcome, one sure result of the whole matter will be to delay true social amelioration.
 "This movement, which is hailed as the dawning of new era of liberty, is but new obstacle in the path of true progress. The real uplifting of peo- pie, socially and governmentally, can be attained only through religious and moral regeneration of all the individ- uals constituting that people. Political agitation, whether by peaceful propa- ganda or appeals to existing powers of government, must have a fatal effect. It puts before the nation and before in- diyiduals the pernicious illusion that social improvement can be wrought by mere change of forms, that substtu tion of a different kind of government or amendment of the existing kind can accomplish reforms which to be effec- tive and permanent must begin with the individual
 "These movements, so frequent in history and so natural under the false teachings which have blinded human 1ty, invariably hinder real progress to- ward peace, justice and love. Consti tutional government is no cure for the evils that aff1ict mankind. For proof of this point to conditions in France, in England and in America"

rur Jne temporary use or men with sore feet the soft native shoe with grass sole, such as is used by the rick shaw men and the people generally in Japan, is served out
 The knapsack is of leather, with the hair outside, its shape being maintain ed by a wooden frame, and this seems to us to be capable of improvement The khaki colored hemp haversack is divided lengthwise to form two com partments and resembles somewhat the haverSack carried by English of- ficers. A useful addition to the sIfngs supporting it from the opposite shoul- der is a short strap fixed in the center of the top of the sack, with hook to fix on the waist belt, and thus take off some of the weight from the sling. =
 For carrying additional small articles of clothing the soldier has long sack about nine inches in width and six feet long, open at each end and stitched across at it's center, so as to make two bags. It is worn over one shoulder, like bandolier the ends being tucked under the waist belt at the opposite side.
 The water bottle, canteen and mess tin are of aluminium, the first two be ing blackened outside; the mess tin fits inside the canteen, like a tray. The rice ration is carried in the small grass box in front of the mess tin. The cop- per Chinese camp kettle is a very prac- tical contrivance. 1t has double sides The water poured into the outer jacket is heated by burning charcoal in a small stove in the center of the vessel, air being admitted by the lateral ap- erture near the bottom, through which also the ashes can be extracted. With this water can be boiled even in gale, and the Japanese soldiers have realized its value in campaigning and use it very generally.
 Of the various samples of food the rice ration ready boiled and the bis- cults = consisting of wheat and rice flour, with few grains of millet seed to prevent 1t from becoming too hard are specially notable. Vegetables of various kinds sliced potatoes, carrots, beans, sliced gourd, etc-are thorough ly dried, thus insuring preservation and diminished weight. Tea and salt are both in solid cakes or cubes, and various meats and fish are in hermet- ically sealed tins Even fodder for, the horse is prepared, like the vegetables for the men, by drying.

LHAsA ARCHITECTURE.

ed from the external appearances; dur ing the stay of the British mission and its escort the market people brought out from their hiding-places many art.- cles of undoubted antiquity and inter- est. Gigantic cups of embossed silver were to be seen side by side with ware closely corresponding to that we call ''clotsonne,' and many precious furs: but all were offered at prices which showed that the merchants in the Lhasa bazar were fully aware of the value of their wares to European in search of curios. The strictly enforced order against footing gave the people courage to display their treasures in the. face of the soldiery: and some of the of fcers who penetrated into the curious courtyards of the houses were gratified with sight of things which they could not purchase.
 The first impression of Lhasa on en- tering by the western gate Ga square opening beneath golden chorten, with a terrifying blue god painted on the teft-hand walD was that the Potala. which came into view on the left, sur- passed all the other buildings of the city. The Jo-kang, where are kept the famous beieweled idols of immensevalue, is comparatively small structure, hud- dled round with houses and public of fees. The Turquoise bridge, reached after passing through the central park, is remarkable only for it's weather beaten red glazed tile, though the Chi uese style it one of the Five Beauties oi Lhasa.
 In the open square before the Chinese Amban's house herds of black pigs rolled in the rubbish heaps, and the proximity of the cemetery made conjecture as to their food impossible. The Ragyabas. or professional scavengers, live close

Says Admiral Sir John Arbuthnot Fisher, first sea lord of the British na- ": 'Tn our future sea fights, with de- stroyers haunting us by night and sub marines dogging us by day, the two chief requisites will be endurance and nerves A machine has no nerves and never gets tired. In the Nelsonic days they could go. to sleep at nights. When the destroyers arrived we settled to go to sleep by day. Now the submarine has come, you can sleep neither by day nor nightv'

to the square, and their houses possess the famous walls of horn which every traveller, from the Abbe Hue to the pres
 ent day, has noticed and recorded. An other duty of the Ragyabas is to cut up and distribute to animals the bodies of the dead. Great pools of black scummed water flood the square, and the main drain of the town runs be- tween fetid mud banks. The famous willow tree in the Ja-kang is walled up to a height of ten feet, and some well- wooded gardens on the north of the town are walled with adobe. But the general effect is one of dirt and poverty. strangely contrasting with the magnifl- cence of the Potala and the beautiful effect of the wide belt of trees and marshes. The other Thibstan towns. though less favored than the Mecca of Buddhism, compare none too badly with the poorly built, badly-drained capital, the interest of which lies chiefly in it's long hidden secret.

Forbidden City Offers Distinct Dis
 appointment to Those Who Penetrated Its Mys- -..-, feries.

The streets of Lhasa have proved a distinct disappointment to the Euro peans who penetrated the Forbidden City with Col. Younghusband's mission. Dirty and narrow, swarming with black pigs, and overlooked by mean houses, the streets were in utter contrast to the magnifeence of the Potala, the shining roof of which can be seen from miles round. And yet in these unprom- ising surroundings are to be found some remarkable examples of artistic devel- opment, such as could not be anticipat-

INSECT MORAL QUALITIES.
Ants and Bees Display an ExtraOr-
 dfnaRy Sense of Duty.

Ants and Bees Display an ExtraOr-
 dinRry Sense of Duty.
 There are insects, mostly parasitic, which, like some men, only desire to eat and drink, but among the social insects, such as ants and bees, there is high development of moral quail ties, to which Haeckel goes the length of applying the term "soul life," to dis 91nguish them from mere instinct.
 Thus patriotism is obviously virtue among ants, for if an ant hill is dis furbed the inmates never attempt to escape from danger, but apply them selves immediately to rescue the lives and property of the community as a whole. Respect, for law and order is also very strongly marked in some communities of ants, which include soldiers and workers, peasants and ar tisans, governors and slaves.
 Bees have an extraordinary sense of duty. Huber noted relays of them SUD- porting a fragment of comb which threatened to fall without one single bee dinching or leaving it's post until relieved by another. Loyalty to the queen is another distinct moral qual- tty.

Boston University Upper Class Girls
 Make Freshmen Do stunts.
 Some fifty Boston university fresh men co-eds were recently put through a course of stunts at the annual initia- tion of Gamma Delta society, says a Boston special dispatch to the New York Times.
 Dressed in sheets and gorgeous rai- ment, with big red bandanna hand kerchief around the neck, hair flying and snarled, shirtwaists turned inside out, some barefooted and others wear ing stockings of various hues, candi- dates were marched from the locker room to Jacob Sleeper hall on the top floor, where a crowd of upper class CO., eds met them.
 First on the programme was a settee race. Several victims were compelled to crawl under overturned settees, only to be stopped abruptly by colliding with a bucket of water or suffering an electric shock.
 Some of the other requirements were to write an essay of twenty-five words on ''How I'd Like to Be Soph" and to bring a picture of a favorite pro- lessor.

HonIor for a Hen

Gandersheim, German village, some time since was en fete. The oc- casion was the honoring of a hen which laid it's thousandth egg. Many of the houses were decorated with flags, while in the evening the propri- etor of the hen entertained his friends at supper, at which the principal dish was gigantic omelet. The function was a splendid success, and the health of the hen was drunk with great en- thusiasm.
