 correspondent of the Echo de Paris cables that he has had an Interview with Finance Minister KokovishdH, who declared that the issue of the was was not doubtful. The minister said that even assuming the most unfavor- able hypothesis the total resources the country will not be touched. The expenditure, he said, must not be conn pared with Great Britain's enormous expenditure in South Africa. Russia will not have to buy $76 o0O, o00lworth of horses abroad. The most that will be spent in this direction with be s2,0oO o00. and it will all be spent within the erl- pire Similarly, the cost of transporting the troops will not go out of the empire but will swell the receipts of the state railways.
 The minister denies that there was any panicky withdrawals from the saw ings banks and said that the greater risk of panic would be among the for- eign holders of Russian securities; but. he added. the foreign holders appeared to be treasured by the events of the last few weeks.

Men would then be better able to ap- proach the question of socialism.
 He quoted Herbert Spencer that when the police powers of government were no longer needed government would cease. He disagreed with this because the speaker thought that when men be- come more civilized governments take upon themselves more and larger func- tions. He did not think. however. that socialism would ever be attained, as the extension of governmental direction of different phases of human endeavor would be commensurate with the up- lifting of the individual intelligence by means of extended educational facul- ties.

ADDRESS ON SOCIALISM
DELIVERED BY .. S. LABOR CON-
 MISSIONER WRIGHT

At United Church Last Evenfng-Nihii-
 ism, Anarchy and Socialism Have
 Longing for Equaiity-No Equaiiza-
 lion of Labor-A Large Attendance.
 Hon. Carroll D. Wright, commissioner of labor for the United States, delivered an address, under the auspices of the Mems club of United church, at that church last evening. The speaker took for his subject, Romantic Socialism and Its Results" Mr. Wrights long service in his Important position makes him conversant with the labor condi- tions and his remarks were listened to with care and attention by the large congregation present.
 The speaker started his remarks by saying that nihilism, anarchy and so- cialism upon being dissected are shown to have the same fundamental tenor. He stated that in all ages the desire for one of these three conditions had been expressed, which tends to show that there has been longing for equality but that such attempts had always been fruitless. He gave as a reason for this that all three place a premium on laziness because the most active and keenest minded have no greater return than the lazy.
 He then said that man has not yet attained sufficient sense of social re- sponsibilyity to work for the community when he himself will only obtain pro rata amount of the total production He then quoted Pierre, who said that it is not difficult to get men to die for their country but that it is hard to get them to make pig iron.
 Continuing the speaker said that ap- parently God Himself in making the universe had not intended that there should be a socialistic economic condi- ton, inasmuch as he had created man of such varying activity and varying mental ability.
 He briefly sketched socialism andsthe longing of man for an ideal and made some adverse comments.
 He cited the colonies of Jamestown and Plymouth where they attempted to pool their earnings and were unsuccess- full. Going further in American history of socialism, the speaker said that Thomas Jefferson was familiar with French socialism and that when frarn- ing the Declaration of Independence he had used many of their phrases and that this had caused the adoption of the most socialistic form Of government in the world.
 After the Civil war wave of social ism had sprung up in many parts of the country which was still felt in many sIlaces.
 5 } Tn concluding he said that the ques- tion arose as to what would be the re- suit of socialistic propa ganda. It would result that many ideas would be sSadopted as when the postal department took over the expressing of small pack ages and formed the money order de- apartment.
 The speaker then said that the only true socialism was in accordance with Whittier's idea of the uplifting of man from ignorance to high stage of edu- cation. A better economic condition, the speaker thought, would be obtained by meliorism plus ethics plus religion. He advised those who are restless to work for the universality of education.

FIRE ON PROSPECT HILL.
Residence of Professor Fisher Almost
 Destroyed.

Residence of Professor Fisher Almost
 Destroyed.
 The beautiful $40 900 residence of Pro- lessor Irving Fisher of Yale was nearly destroyed by fire Saturday. The care taker discovered the fire at 6:15 in the morning over the furnace, which he had just started. He reused the family after failing to extinguish the flames by a, chemical extinguisher. Mrs. Fisher was absent at the time. Several en- zines were summoned but were pre- vented from coming quickly to the fire by the steepness of Prospect Hill where the house stands. The water pressure was so low that only one engine could play on the house. and owing to this the flames gained such headway that they destroyed the roof, injured the third story seriously and other stories partially. The loss was about $30, 900, largely insured. Owing to the lack of water there was a bitter hand to hand fight with the flames by the firemen and by neighbors, among whom was Pro- lessor Schwab. The beautiful and costly furniture was saved, as was the large library. Among the things saved were the handsome old fashioned clock, rich tapestries. ancient vases and curi- osities and fine paintings. The house was a very large and costly one, built mostly of stone with a conservatory.
 Owing to this and other fires, the res idents of Prospect Hill will make ef- forts to have better fire protection es- tablished. Although Prospect Hill has many Of the finest houses in the city, it has wretched protection from fire, as was proved on Saturday.
 A petition for the location of a fire steamer on Prospect Hill is being circu- lated. M

A DIR. .'S FOOD
Found a Food that Lifted Him Out of
 Trouble.


 The food experience of 8 doctor exper- ing. He says:
 II had acid dyspepsia since I have any knowledge-from eight years old, I know.
 It worked down from stomach to in testines locating at the umbilicus in en- teritis, until six years ago the agony every few days was something terrible. I have walked the floor for hours un- able to eat, or digest if I should eat.
 Medicine would not relieve me at all. Four years ago I began the use of Grape Nuts and since the first dish l have never had an attack of the old trouble take four tablespoonfuls once a day with my supper, which is com posed only of whole wheat bread and the Grape-Nuts.
 ssThe wonderful part of my case is that I have never had an attack or even any of the dreadful symptoms since the very first meal of Grape-Nuts. Most of my patients know how sudden ly and promptly Grape-Nuts cured me, and have prescribed the food with good results in many cases" Name given by Postum Co, Battle Creek, MicE.
 Grape-Nuts is regularly prescribed in place of medicine by many physicians for stomach or intestinal troubles, lack of norishment. brain-fag and nervous prostration. The result usually shows immediate improvement, and speedy, complete cure.
 Ten days trial of Grape Nuts in place of starchy foods works wonders.
