THE RUSSIAN SOLDIER.

F It is a relief to turn from the Russian
 officer to the Russian soldier. Ivan,
 poor fellow, with all his ignorance and
 stupidity is a man to love His simple,
 kindly nature, answering loyalty to
 Czar and country who have done so
 little for him. unquestioning obedience
 to officers, who take such little care for
 his well fare, never-failir1g patience un-
 der reVerses, unfiinching courage in
 the presence of the enemy generally un-
 complaining attitude in misfortune,
 and quet endurance of poor food and
 excessive fatigue make him an almost heroic figure. Unaccustomed to what we would consider ordinary comforts, he does not miss them; knowing noth- ing better, he is content with his lot.
 Perhaps it is his deeply religious na- ] ture that enables him to bear so well jthe hardships put upon him. He would rather enter battle without food than without the blessing of the regimental priest, whose picturesque flowing gown land long, uncombed hair are to be met leven on the firing line. Many priests wear the St George cross, given only for gaIlantry under fire
 As a soldier, Ivan is fairly well dri1l@
 ed in ordinary marching evolutions, land the manual of arms, for which he must thank his on-commissioned of lficers; but apparently gets very little instruction in modern fighting tactics.
 Entirely destitute of personal initia- tive he is apt to become practically helpless if he loses his officers. He has ! a fairly good weapon, though inferior Ito the rife used by the Japanese, but has been given little instruction how to
 use it. Target practice is expensive, and in an army the size of Russia's the men lget the minimum, In this war it has ibeen noticeable that such infantry-fire control as is displayed by the Russians lis directed almost entirely by non Icommissioned officers, and it's efficiency falls far below that of the Japanese.
 The Russian soldier, too, is poorly
 supplied and clothed in comparison to those of most armies. His rations depend largely upon his foraging ability. When the war began his cloth ing was unsuitable for the requirements tof modern conflict, but as time has
 gone by efforts are being made to re-
 remedy this.-Scribner's

AT YALE FIELD.
Coaches Still Trying to Develop Kick ing Game

Coaches Still Trying to Develop Kick
 ing Game.
 During the football practice at Yale field yesterday afternoon the freshman eleven were lined up against the regu- liars. and by short steady plunges suc- ceeded in gaining ground against them repeatedly. The varsity was not given possession of the ball at any time, how |eves.
 Tn the regular scrimmage between the first and second teams both elevens succeeded in crossing each others goal lines.
 The practice was practically the same as the day before, both the scrubs and the varsity indulging principally in a kicking game. Both sides used a number of different players who wers taken in hand by the coaches and worked especially hard. Near the end of the practice Hoyt managed to drop a goal from the field after several tries, and little Hutchinson duplicated his feat several minutes later, causing the stands to rumble.
 The team as whole has improved wonderfully in the pushing and pulling game, but still lack finish in getting the plays under headWay. This is es- Ipecially true of the backs, who still start clumsily.

Then Married in Dark That Marks of
 Age Might Not Be so Apparent.
 Judge Zen Roe left his bed Monday night at F o'clock to speak the words which bound together Ragan B. Bay hard and Lou Pairn, aged 1T years. The couple walked into the city from opposite directions to reap the reward they had waited for 27 years to receive. and then asked to be wed in the dark.
 The groom arrived about II o'clock and hung around the front yard until the arrival of the bride. They met in the moonlight and approached the house hand in hand. It had been a long time since they had met before
 Judge Roe thrust his head from the door without the formality of putting on his clothes or striking a light.
 Please don't strike a light, squire, pleaded the groom in husky voice. II reckon Lou ain't quite es purty es she was 27 years ago. Kaint you tie us up in tn dark so's we ken think we air es young es we used t be-"
 When it was over they told story of humble submission to fate. Each had watched tenderly over the de .clining years of father and mother. For 27 years they had slaved to ease the path of invalids in the separate hones.# But few days ago the death angel fitted away with the soul of an aged mother in one home and father from the other. The angel opened wide the door which has been barred these long 27 years.
 Judge Roe will not deny that he felt a glad thrill of joy as he watched them wandering in arm, down the moon 1 lit road De Moines New.

HORSE HOSPITAL.

It was an intending ride for Joe way up to the hospital but the wagon ran smoothly and easily, and it took him right into the building where they lifted him in sling on to an elevator, which hoisted him to the top floor where all was clean, smelling of tan bark and full of box stalls. He was taken into one of these. A long wide piece of canvas was passed under his belly, brought together over his back and hooked to two pairs of block and tackles fastened to roof beams. Then he was hoisted up until his two legs cleared the floor, and there he re- mained, day in and day out, week in and week out for long weary month. Every day the surgeon came and gent ly squeeed and washed and bandaged. Every day some one of his friends from the granite engine house came to visit him, to pat him, to talk to him and to bring home good news. Twen- ty others, blacks, grays, sorrels and bays (for in the fire department a good horse is good color") were in stalls
 But rarely any one came to visit them. One of these swathed to the eyes in bandages, was a victim of flames, Most suffered from sprains or wrench es or cuts or bruises and would recover and be sent back to duty A few were very sick or very much hurt and, likely would die or be put out of misery. Several there would recover only to be sold to coal dealers, icemen, truckmen and even ragmen, who in- sisted not on fawless beasts-for the great city never squandered money on g big farm where it's debt to the dumb might be paid, "A. w.

WOUND HEALING.
Sergeant McBride's Physical Condition
 Improving.

The condition of Police Sergeant William E Mcbride of Station Nc. } is stated by his attenling physician to be very favorable to recovery. The wounds which he inflicted i'll his neck ill an endeavor to end his life are heal ing rapidly and no complications are thus far threatened.
 The most serious feature with which his physician has to contend is his mental condition. The mental break down is complete, and arrangements have been completed for the removal of Sergeant Mcbride to sanitarium where he will be under constant care.
 So serious is his mental condition now that he has to be constantly watched and as this is hard to accom- plish under the present surroundings, his removal to a sanitarium was deem- ca best. He will be taken away in a day or so.
 Dr. Budd said yesterday that he be- lieved that Sergeant McBride's physi- cal and mental recovery would ulti- mately be complete.

 A large circle of friends will regret the death of Charles H. Blakeslee of this city, which occurred some time yesterday at West Hartland, this state, whither he went last Friday to recruit his health, which had become serious ly impaired. He had been in the habit of going to West Hartland every sum iner for rest and recreation, but did not go last summer owing to the pres sure of his business.

BlakesIee was one of the most expert penilen in the state, and for years had done the expressing of the Yale diplo- mas. His services had also been in great demand by societies and private parties for the expressing of resolutions. He was also for years a teacher of German having had fine success with his pri- vate classes. He was man we'll read and took a lively interest in the lead- ing questions of the day. He was very active despite the bodily infirmity with which he was afflicted. He was 8 staunch and loyal friend and devoted son and brother. He leaves to mourn his loss his aged father and mother, MT. and Mrs. Isaac BIakeslee, and his sister. who formerly taught in New Haven public schools for years, with all of whom he resided at 1916 State street, nearly opposite the street leading to Schutzen park entrance.

Finding of Facts Delivered by Judge BishOp-Bryan Given a Year to set-

 Bound Over-City Court Cases.
 The old suit of Miss Isabella V. shai- Ter against Rev. Charles s. Bullock, of stratford, is revived again by the find ing of facts delivered by Judge Bishop of the common pleas court.
 The request for findings have been made long ago and the judge has sim ply to do with making up his records to appear before the supreme court.
 Judge Bishop finds that the brand on the child was not an evidence of pater- nifty and that there was no evidence that the brand on the child was some thing showing the act of paternity. The offering of the child to show that il had some resemblance to the father is excluded by the judge.
