Any manager in the country would be
glad to get a chorus as pretty and as

Frozen Lake a Serious Obstacle in
Way of Russis1 Troops.
The reassuriug star aments published
by the chief of the Russian transport ser
vice regarding the transport of troops
across Lake Baikal are entirely discred-
tied by Independent witnesses. Accord
ing to a Russian informant there is no
reason for doubling the reports that
many hundreds of soldiers have been rem
dered unfit for service by the hardships
endured on the march over the ice.
The casualties, this authority adds,
have been vastly increased by inadequate
clothing aud the food supplied the sol
diers. The men before setting out ON
the march ross the lake are served
early in the morning at Baikal station
merely with tea and dry bread. At a
half way wooden barracks they eceive a
basin of hot wheaton Cruel cooked in
salt water without the addition OF Hny
fat. and in the evening, at the end OF
their to.lsome journey of forty seven
miles through wi d and snow, they are
again provided III tea and dry bread.
Many Of the men besere reaching the
barracks manage to sell their thick high
boots of felt for bottles OF vodka, with
the result that their feet are frozen
and cases of drunkenness on the march
are by no means rare. Stragglers of this
description are necessarily left to their
fate unless they can be placed by com
passionate comrades on pack sleighs.
