College Men Preferred.

The roller chair concessionaire of the
ST. Louis fair has sent out invitations
TO ali the college men of the country
TO join the push" The concessionaire
is anxious to have all the pushers
young men who have enjoyed the edu-
cational privileges of our great seats of
learning - young men, as he puts it,
who will combine that gracefulness, of
manner and intelligent interest in the
fair desired in men doing this kind of
work" But the concessionaire would
do more wisely, we think, to attempt to
engage his pushers, so far as possible,
from the athletic ranks of the univer-
sites. St. Louis is a warm town. and
strength and endurance will probably
be found more necessary than grace
fulness of manner" And so far as in
telligent interest is concerned" the at
titude of the average college student
toward art and kindred subjects is too
likely to be that of the American young
woman who upon seeing the Venus de
Milo said well, if that's art, excuse
mel" If the college students services
were limited to pushing us down the
Pike-well, that would be different

She Moved Slowly.

Senator Nelson w. Aldrich of Rhode
Island tells this story on himself. He
was in New York recently and stopped
at the Fifth Avenue Hotel for several
days. The first night he was in town
an elderly woman stopped him near
the hotel and said:
Please, sir. will you tell me the way
to. Harlem? ?"
'Harlem!" exclaimed the Senator.
Why, my good woman you are about
two miles from there. and 1 should ad-
wise you to take cab"
rs it as far as that?' inquired the
woman. Then I'll have to walk" and
she sighed heavily as she drew her
shawl more tightly over her shoulders.
The Senator's heart was touched
Let me assist you. madam" ne said.
Here are two dollars"
God bless you, sir" said the woman,
ferventIy
Two nights later the Senator again
was stopped near the hotel by the same
woman.
Please. sir, can you tell me the way
to Harlem?" she asked.
Good Lord, woman, haven't you got
to Harlem YETI" he replied as he
passed on.-Boston\ Journal.

SPLENDID ELECTRIC TRAIN
SERVICE IN MIDDLE WEST
Comfortable, Well Equipped Coaches
and Dining Cars That Run Over
Sixty Miles an Hour.

A 2O0-miie road is in operation be-
tween Columbus. Ohio, and Indianap-
oils. equipped with sleeping and dining
cars Of the most advanced type. Ex-
tensions Of this line are being pushed
through to Wheeling, w Va. and 10
Pittsburg, and plans are being made
for connections with Cincinnati This
service in another year will cover
stretches in various directions of from
200 to 500 miles in length. Solid trains
are run. consisting of sleepers. dining
cars and day coaches, all of the most
improved design and construction. the
sleepers costing over $20,0 900 each. State
rooms with two berths are used instead
Of open compartments. The roadbeds
and tracks are built as substantially
as on steam roads, and a speed of
sixty-fye miles an hour is regularly
made on some stretches. Indeed, the
Chicago, Elgin and Aurora Railroad is
planning an equipment capable of 100
miles an hour for everyday schedule
Trains leave the indianapolis and Co.
lumbus terminals at 1870 o'clock every
night and finish the 20O-mile run at
o'clock on the morning. The operation
of the road has shown that there is no
smoke, cinders or dust, and that Sleep
ing car passengers will be able to open
their windows in summer. The charge
for a berth and fare between the two
cities is So, which is less than the day
coach fare on the competing steam
railroads Although in the Eastern
States the development of the electric
railway has not yet reached a stage
where sleepers and dining cars are IN
use, still the improvements in the
equipment and fittings of the ordinary
service cars are keeping pace with
those of lines in other parts of the
country. The Fonda, Jchnstown and
Gloversville Railway has put on new
palace cars, which are said to be the
largest and most expensive ever seen.
They are fifty-fve feet in length and
weigh forty-three tons. High back re-
versible seats, finished in plush. with
roll headrests and footrests, increase
the comfort of the passenger. Each
car seats fifty-six persons. Over each
seat is an electric light, and the electric
push button keeps the passenger in
close touch with the conductor. A teIe-
phone connects both platforms, so that
the motorman and conductor can talk
with each other and also with the gem
eral offices of the company. The cars
are geared to forty-five miles an hour

RUSSIA 7.HROL1J OFF M1AJK
and REDEALS HER PURPOSE
Present Uar Is Intended to Insure the Cars Pre-
dominance on the Western Shores of
the Pacific Ocean.

ST. PETERSBURG, March 26-The
text of the Emperor's message to Vice
roy Alexieff notifying him OF the ap-
pointment of General Kuropatl1in to
the command of the Russian troops in
the Far East and of Admiral Makaroff
to the command of the fleet at Port
Arthur. not only clearly defines the lat
ter's position, but specifically an
nounces Russia's aims. The message
follows:
Owing to the Importance of the inn
pending struggle, which is intended to
finally insure the predominant position
OF Russia on the shores of the Pacific
Ocean, and foreseeing that it will be
necessary for you as my lieutenant to
transfer your residence TO a more CEN
trail position-for instance, Harbin or
some other place of your choice-I have
found it eXDedient to send to your as
sistance General, Kuropatkin for the
direction Of the land forces, with the
rights of army commander, and Vice
Admiral Makaroff for the direction OF
the sea forces, with the rights of fleet
commander. / am convinced that the
appointment Of these independent, re-
sDonsible commanders in chief viii en-
able you as my lieutenant TO discharge
the difficult and historic task which has
fallen to your lot
The mobilization of the Manchurian
army is now complete. General Kuro-
patkin stopped q Harbin to visit the
fortress there. He win reach Mukden
tomorrow.
The Russian authorities have been
privately informed that the Egyptian
Government proposes to exercise sur
veillance over ships other than war
ships passing through the Suez canal in
order to ascertain whether they carry
contra band of war Il the report is Of
ficially confirmed Russia viii imme-
diately protest against it as n violation
of the international agreement covering
the canal.
The Japanese Government, through
the United States embassy, has re-
QueSted Russia to permit the Japanese
Consul and the consular staff at Tur-
bussi. island of Saghalien, and 400 refu-
gees to return to Japan. Many of the
latter are represented to be suffering
from lack of food.
The Russian authorities have ar
ranged to deliver without postage all
mail intended for soldiers in the field.
The papers here are quoting editorials
published in American newspapers to
prove that the Japaphile agitation in
the United States is not such a brilliant
success as the New York correspond
ents of the London papers would have
it appear. Some of the papers sharply
criticize the advice of Sir Robert Hart,
the Inspector General of Chinese Gus
tome to China. counseling the strength
ening of the Chinese army. The Novoe
Vremya declares that Sir Robert is
cunningly seeking to encourage China
with a semi organized army to inter
fere after the Japanese are defeated,
thus giving Great Britain a chance to
step in and share the spoils, while the
Bourse Gazette argues that in view of
Sir Robert Hart's advice the respon-
sibility for complications must fall upon
Great Britain.

VLADIVOSTOK DOES
NOT FEAR SHORTAGE
OF FOOD SUPPLIES

VLADIVOSTOK, March 26.-Sup-
plies of provisions on hand assure the
sale of food at peace prices during the
summer, even though the operations
of the Japanese and the overhowing
of the rivers may cause difficulty in
transportation, followed by an increase
in the price of a few articles. The
Koreans had laid up stores of cab
bages, onions and cucumbers for the
winter, but these were not used and
are now sold cheapy. The attempts
of minor dealers to raise prices were
followed by repressive military meas
ureS.
There are many empty lodgings in
Vladivostok. Nikolsk has been chosen
as a residence by many. Nearly all
the women ef the middle class are
leaving Vladivostok and the islands of
Saghalien and Posieta. Lodgings at
Nikolsk have doubled in prices.
