fered Loss.
Waycross, Ga, July 17.-Fire in the
largest business block at 1 o'clock this
morning came near causing one of the
most disastrous blazes in the his
tory of the city. The fire caught in
the grocery and fruit store of A. l..
German, and the whole interior was
ablaze when discovered.
From the German store, the fire
swept into. MiIler's restaurant, next
door, but was extinguished without
causing much damage. Germans stock
was totally destroyed and the build
ing ruined. The insurance was $3.50.
In Miller's restaurant the loss was
about $780, covered by insurance.
Some are of the opinion that the fire
was caused by burglars, as the back
door of Germans store was open when
the firemen arrived.

there is to do. Even the stabling
is made easier from the practice of
never removing the litter from the
stalls during the cold weather. The
filth piles up under the cattle until 1t
is three or four feet deep.
A larger proportion of cattle die OF
disease in Russia than in any other
country, but the Russian sticks to
his method of stabling because of the
quantity of manure which he has
ready for his fields in the spring.

The men receive the rudiments OF
education when they are in the army
but for them the long winter is usu-
ally spent in keeping drunk. The

the government has prevented this
by making the production of alcoho

average peasants house is a crude
structure of logs and thatch; some
times with only one room and some
times with two. In the living room Is
great stove of brick so constructed
that a very small amount of fuel will
heat 1t and it will continue to Civ,
out heat long after the fire has gon'

BY failing to ventilate, the peasant
is able to economic on fuel, hnC

, explanation is that the houses are not
too well built and somewhere there
is a crack through which a tiny al
lowance of oxygen creeps in. Poor
oxygen! Living under such conditions
probably accounts for the fact that
the people like to get drunk, and that
they get drunk so easily.
BY spring the peasants are as pale
as ghosts and weak for lack of air.
In addition to the other terrors, there
is an immense and noisome popula-
ton of insects. Somehow the peas
ants are used to them and do not
give them much thought.
The chief outside influence in the
PEASANTS life is religion. but this is
in many cases degraded to a mere
superstition. Each house has it's own
little icon or picture of a saint and
this is often literally worshiped. The
peasants also hold strange pagan
ideas on many subjects which have
survived from the darker ages of
| Russia. Witches are implicitly be-
lieved in, and in extreme cases, where
stance. is supposed to be bewitched,
the miller will go to the length of
kidnapping a child and drowning it
under the wheel so as to appease the
| sorcery.
With SO religious a people 1t might
| be supposed that the priests would
have great power. TO a certain ex-
tent they do have. 1t was a device of
Peter the Great to abolish the system
| of Russian church government by
which the Greek church was ruled by
one patriarch and to make the car
head of the church. Today there are
| three metropolitan bishops of equal
rank and the car Is the head of all.
, The idea is to teach the people that
the czar is the anointed head of the
church and the religious machinery of
the country is worked to this end
The priest does not have the same
authority as in other places. As a
matter of fact. Russian peasants
think that all priests possess the evil
eye, and whenever a priest comes into
their house or speaks to them in the
street, they always cross their fingers
until he has gone away. If they did
not cross their fingers when a priest
was about they would expect all sorts
| of trouble.
| The degraded condition of the Rus
sian peasants is especially discourag-
ing to those who hope for a revolu-
ton. 1t is hopeless to talk about the
rights of many to a dirty supersti-
! tious savage who can not read and
write, whose vocabulary is seldom
more than $50 words, who does not
even know how to ventilate his
house, and who in his moments of
! leisure is engrossed, not in sorting
out ideas inside his head. but in
catching insects which worry the out
side of 1t.

THOMAS HAYS PICKS FOE HIS
BRIDE MISS JOSEPHINE MAX
wosKI OF THE CoEU1 D'ALENE
rHEArER-THE wooIN0 WAS
FAST AND FURIOUS.

After a courtship that has caused
the men around town to hold their
breaths. Thomas Hays of st. Marys,
Idaho, who is said to be worth close
to q million dollars, will wed Miss
Josephine Makowski, until yesterday
a chorus girl at the Occur d'Alene
theater, at her home in San Francisco
Immediately after Easter. He became
acquainted with his bride-to-be about
a month ago and since then his WOO
ing has been fast and furious. Cham
payne suppers, automobile rides and
diamonds heralded the approach OF
HAYS to the heart of the chorus girl.
Miss Makwowski is beautiful
blonde and since she came to Spokane
last November a score of young men
have offered her homage. Though but
a mere chorus girl earning small
weekly stipend, jewels and silks were
showered upon her by admirers. Tn
til the arrival of Hays she was
strictly impartial with her smiles and
attentions.
Hays came to Spokane on one of his
periodical trips and wandered into
the Occur dAlene in search of an
evenings amusement. AS far as the
lumberman was concerned it was a
case of love at first sight He secured
an introduction to the fair Josephine
and quickly had her other admirers
looking like n map of Manchuria that
had been left out in the rain. For a
time famine in champagne was
threatened and the men about town
began to sit up and take notice. Dia-
monds followed quickly after cham
payne.
But the way to a maids heart is
devious. Josephine at first coyly de-
clned the proposals of the lumber
man. But to secure what he wants
has always been a strong trait of
Hays, and he determined that his
charmer would marry him If ii took
years to gain her consent. His ardent
wooing melted Josephine's heart and
last week she said the word that
made the world all gladness for him.
Today she returned to San Francisco
and Hays will follow on a later train.
Hays is well known among lumber
men in the northwest. He owns thou
sands of acres of valuable timber
lands in Idaho and Montana. He is
80 years old, while his future wife
has just turned 10. An accident some
years ago deprived him of the use of
one arm.
Miss Makwowski comes of excellent
parents in San Francisco. She was
anxious to see more of the world than
the glances she got from beneath the
parental roof, SO last fall she came to
Spokane.

CROSSING NOW NOT
so DANGEROUS

According to the statements of rail-
way officials to the city street depart
ment, over % per cent of the Northern
Pacific switching traffic has been re-
moved from the crossing at Sprague
and Division street. One of the three
switches used in handling the freight
cars has been taken out altogether,
and track extending from just east of
Division street to the river will be laid,
thus still more lowering the amount
of switching.
The city commissioners say that the
complaints of people on Spragus avenue
about flying switches being made across
Sprague cannot be helped; that unless
all the large wholesale houses along the
track west of Division are removed
switching to some extent will be nee
essary.

MOSCOW, Russia, March 1S.--Only
per cent of the vast number of the
czar's subjects live in the cities or
towns. The rest are farmers. Most
of them very poor farmers, or, as
they are called in Europe, peasants,
There are no people whose existence
is more dreary The summer season
is short and very warm. From the
first day the frost breaks to the time
when the north wind again freezes
everything, the peasants labor is un-
ceasing.
Only by desperate eXertion can they
raise sufficient to support them
through the six months of winter.
Through the summer, owing to the
northern latitude, the days are long,
so that IS hours work day for the
peasant. his wife and his children is
not uncommon.
American agricultural machinery is
work easier. but on the peasant farms
there are only the most primitive ap-
planes. Wooden plows and wooden
implements make agriculture a drudg-
cry to an extent which the most hard
worked American farmer could not
believe.
In october winter begins, and
everything is frozen solid until May.
At once the PEASANTS life becomes
one of idleness. To milk the cows
and get in wood from the forest is all
