Though a great deal Of money has
been expended upon railroads in Rus
STA they are not profitable. An Odessa
newspaper estimates the annual out
lay from the Treasury as $196,OOO, 900.
The railroads are not built for the peo-
pie. They are strategic in part, and in
part used to assist the coal and other
industries. How to reduce the ex-
penses of the railroad is a curious pro-
blem. While spending nearly $2OO,OOO,-
900 upon assisting the railroad, the ele-
mentary education of the country is
entirely neglected. To develop this
would require $51, 100000 annually, but
strategic railroads take PRECEDENCE Of
education, and the consequence is that
out of every thousand men in the army
some 900 can neither read nor write,
and are simply ignorant machines.

while she dribbles troops into Korea.
1t will take some time for Russia's re-
ply to reach Japan, and during that
period she can be taking up positions.
There is no doubt that Alexieff desires
to possess Korea and especially THE
port near Fusan, as that would give
him undivided command from VIadi-
vostok to Port Arthur If the Russians
are entering Korea from the north one
does not see why Japan should not
land troops at Masampho. However
she can get there in half a day at any
time, and in organization Japan is
probably ahead of any other nation.

Rev Father Senesac, pastor of St Aims church, has awarded the con- tract for making plans and specified tions of his proposed new church to Chickering & O'Connor of Boston. 1t is understood that ground will be bro ken for the foundation early next spring. The building will have a seating capacity of 1,3U0, will front on East Clay street, and will be of marble or granite. If the building fronted on South Main street it would require several steps to get into it. and even then half of it would be under ground, while by making the entrance on Clay street. where the grade at the street line is several feet above that Of South Main street, the conditions with refer ence to grades will be just right for an entrance which will not make 1t necessary to set in a long flight of steps which are always objectiona ble at the entrance way to churches. There are $500 souls in St Ann's par lsh and the number is constantly on the increase. After the new church. Is built and ready for occupancy St Anns will have one of the handsomest pieces of church property in the Hart ford diocese.

The Englishman is less social than men of any other nationality; I mean
 is less conscious of the ties which ind humanity together, his moral for nation owes little to his relations with about what they think, and if he ever considers the matter at all 1t makes no difference in his sentiments and actions. In short, the Englishman Is, to large extent, a recluse; he is more aloof from the world in which he lives and the neighbors whom he elbows than the men of any other nationality.
