WHY RUSSIA LACKS LEADERS.

Thinking Glasses Coesced by Those In
Power.
Russia possesses very few conspicu.
Gus and seemingly no great men ut the
beginning Of one Of the most fateful
periods Of her checkered history, says
the Review Of Reviews. At home, the
thinking and the working classes live
in a continuous ferlnent Of passive re-
sistnnce to the daily manifestation Of
bureaucratic authOrity--a ferment
much too intense and widespread, 1t
would seem, to be amenable to the pal.
liatlve or cOerclye measures hitherto
employed against 1t with success.
Abroad, a series Of complications has
arisen which threatens to undermine
the paramount position occupied by
Russia In the hierarchy Of nations for
over decade; and as yet the men
capable Of steering the ship OF state
clear Of both or either Of these dan
gers have not come to the front. Dex-
ferrous and conscientious officials are,
indeed. numerous enough ut the apex
Of the social pyramid, but they are
mostly individuals to whom uniforms,
rank and decorations impart the up.
pearance Of intellectual or admins.
trative talents which many Of them
In reality sadly lack.
From this striking fact, however, II
would be mistake to draw the infer.
ence that there are no master spirits
among a people Of nearly l5O.OO0,OOO.
There MAY be. undoubtedly there are.
many men Of superior parts possibly
more than one Individual Of real gent
us. who, under such circumstances as
prevail In the United States, France or
England, would be able and ready to
take the tide In the Affairs Of their
country ut the Hood. hut In Russia. 1t
Is affirmed. they are condemned to OBJ
security. The impersOnal system Of bu-
reaucracy acts, people complain, as a
scythe cutting of, as It We're, the heads
Of those who rise above the low level
Of the average tshin0vnik. or official.
For the man who has not dOnned the
state uniform In his youth, and been
duly ground In the administrative mill,
even though lie We're a Bismarck and II
Napoleon combined. there IL no legal
avenue to power or influence. He is
condemned to inactivity and silence I'M
der pains and penalties which, during
the last few weeks are understood to
have been intensified. His whole duty
Is to hearken and obey; his greatest
crime to critlclse or oppose those whom
chance or seniority has placed at the
head Of the administration. These are
plain facts which almost every Russian
will avow; whether the principles UNI
DERIVING them are sound or the reverse
Is n question which am not now con.
cerned to discuss

CHATTER Nj.

A knock Mt the door announced the
arrival Of the des Grassins; their com
Ing and exchange Of greetings prevented
CruchOt senior from finishing a sentence.
Nor was he ill-pleased with this diver
sion; Grandet was looking askance at
him already, and there was that about
the wen on the cooper's face which indi-
Gated that Il storm was brewing within.
And on sober reflection 1t seemed to the
cautious notary that president OF a
court of first instance was not exactly
tie person to dispatch to Paris, there to
open negotiations with creditors, and to
lend himself to dubious transaction
which, however you looked at 1t, hardly
squared with notions of strict honesty;
and not only SO, but he had particularly
noticed that goodman Grandet had shown
not the slightest inclination to disburse
anything whatever, and he trembled In
stinctly at the thought of his nephew be-
coming involved In such business. He
took advantage Of the entrance Of the
des Grassins. took his nephew by the
arm. and drew him into the embrasure
Of the window.

ID any need" he said, shat Is quite

ing to the Star of that city, the insti-

the deposits grew to S1.6OO.OOO. At
the end of two years they were 5000,

were $6,300,OO0 The advertising was

EXPENSIVE TO STOP.

The railroad train is the best illus
t1ation that has ever been found to
typify continuous advertising. A local
passenger train takes just about
twice as long to cover hundred miles
as an express train. Some people
think it travels more slowly, but
there is little difference in the actual
running speed. The time is lost in
making stops, slowing down and get
ting under way again. For this rea-
son spasmodic advertising consumes
twice as much energy as continuous
advertising. 1t may cost considerable
to continue the campaign, but 1t
costs more to stop for a season.
