The assurance of the Russians in the
matter of Thibet is quite refreshing.
Russia strongly objects, while enter
ing Manchuria, to have England enter
Thibet; although to get to the latter
country herself Russia would have TO
cross four hundred miles of alien terri
tory, while Englands empire abuts on
the hermit land and is but $50 miles
from Lhassa. Thibet is within the
sphere of English political influence
and far from the sphere of Russia's.
The protests made at st. Petersburg
against the Younghusband expedition
pretty clearly indicate that Russias
plan of empire takes in the greater part
of Asia.

1t is surprising to see, on the editorial
page OF an afternoon paper discus
sion based on the theory that the Jibu-
til squadron is going East when the
dispatches point just the other way.
Day before yesterday the cablegrams
had the squadron entering the Suea
Canal in the wake of the Aurora,
homeward bound. Yesterday the Auro-
ra was reported as entering the Medi-
terranean, en- route for the semi-Greek
port OF Crete, where she will be able to
get coal. The truth seems 10 be that
the Russians have conceded the mas
terry OF the Far Eastern sea 10 japan
and are gathering their naval forces al
home In expectation of ultimate trou-
BILE with Great Britain.

If Japan wins in this war she will
probably demand Saghalien back, a
geographical part of her island empire
which Russia long ago got from her
under false pretences. Saghalien is not
precisely a winter resort, but it is n
northward extension of the Japan
group and is valuable for its minerals,
its fisheries and its command of the
Gulf of Tartary.

According to statistics given in CT

According to statistics given in Chi
nese papers. the opening of the war
found nineteen torpedo-boat destroyers
and ten torpedo-boats in Port Arthur.
Presumably they are there yet, less the
number smashed by the Japanese.
That the destroyers have done nothing
to repel the attacks of the japanese
torpedo boats which have caused most
of the mischief, indicates that the Rus
sian, as sea-fghter, has not improved
with years.

That the stoneboats did not do their
perfect work at Port Arthur is shown
by the fact that the Russian ships
afterwards came out to fight. How
ever, there are more stoneboats. 1t
would be like the japanese on some
snowy night to make a rush for the
entrance of the port with half dozen
Merrimacs and thrust them as far as
possible into the narrow channel.

rHA BlBLE KANsAs.

There are many people in Kansas. and some of them don't want the Bible read in the public schools. So "a test ease" was brought. and the Supreme court of the State has this to say: A public school teacher who. for the pur- pose of quieting the pupils and prepar- ling them for their regular studies. re- peats the Lords Prayer and the Twen- ty-third Psalm as a morning exercise. without comment or remark, in which none of the pupils is required to par ticipate. is not conducting a form of re- ligious worship or teaching sectarian or religious doctrine.
 This decision appears to be within bounds. Of course there are people in Kansas. as in other States, who are more prejudiced against the Bible than against any other good book. But it will probably not hurt any of the little Kansans to hear the Lords Prayer and the Twenty-third Psalm, if no com- ments or remarks go with them.

able for the purpose in view. Once the park has been made then is a natural invasion Of the surrounding territory by the welI-to-do middle class But as the years roll on yet more remote districts appeal to these park margin dwellers, and there is a gradual exodous to fresh fields with corresponding influx of a denser population. The tide moves ever and gradually yet surely. The villa residence give place by process of evolution to a different type, and ultimately the factory. warehouse or business store will invade the district. When this time comes there will be other and perhaps better parks for those who have moved of; there will be veritable breathing spot and re- creation ground for these workers and toilers of the city for whom such rec reation should be procured, as a paying investment by the nation at large American Gardener.

THE MISSION OF PARKS.


 It is a fair question to ask whether
 the enormous sums of money spent by
 the several municipal governments upon
 their park system actually accomplish
 Ia proportionate amount of public good.
 Wha. Is the primary object of these
 parks and city squares? Is it to afford open spaces in centers of dense poula-
 ton. to improve the sanitary conditions Of the population, to be of the greatest benefit to the greatest number-the 3oorer classes; or is it the purpose to provide within the city to greater or less extent a substitute for the country drives and rural surroundings that are the enjoyment of those who are able to maintain both a town and a country residence? Or perhaps it is the com hination Of these two possibilities that should be sought True it is that public gardens are generally located in the well-to-do districts, circumstance
 that is brought about in more ways than one. First of all, land on the out skirts of city is not only to be had at a lower price, but it is also more avail-

THE PL1eUE IN souru AFRICA

THE PLAGUE IN SOUTH AFRICA.
 South Africa is free from the plague
 of war, but it is still troubled by that
 dreadful disease called the plague. IL
 appears that the plague has existed in Cape Colony for some four years, and although in no town or district except perhaps Port Elizabeth, has plague as- |sumed any considerable proportions, yet the continued presence of the dis ease in both men and rats in several towns of Cape Colony and in Durban, Natal, rendered the possibility of se- ed area or in adjacent towns or dis tricts, an ever-present cause of anxiety. The last plague patient was discharged from the hospital at East London on February 25 Rats, however, are still reported as being infected by plague at Port Elizabeth and East London, so that although no case of plague in hu man beings actually exists for the mo- ment, the probability of recurrence in one or other of these towns has to be contemplated. During the year 1903 the total number of deaths from plague ii, Cape Colony amounted to 1855. The Transvaal has hitherto labored with
 success, says South Africa, to keep the
 disease from crossing the border. The plague there, it adds, IS of the pneumo-

MADAME poUsnP, wARRIoR

It is nothing new for women to fight. There have been women fighters ever since Eve fought with Adam. And some Of them have shown themselves to be very efficient fighters. But it is inter- esting to notice that Russian woman who knows she can fight has got per mission from the war ministry to do It. She is Madame Pousep, who is thirty three years old, was reared under the patronage of the late Emperor Alexan- der IT. and is said to be a fine horse woman, a good shot and handles the rifle. revolver and sword equally well, often taking part in the cavalry man. euvers of the Vyanzensky regiment. Mime. Pousep is also qualified Red Cross nurse, but she says there are enough women nurses and she want to show that a woman can fight. The dispatch said that should Mime. Pou- sep's petition be rejected, she would go to the front at her own expense and serve as daughter of the regiment"
 Sister Pousep wants to serve in a Cossack regiment, and it is to be hoped that she will be allowed to. We don't suppose that 'the enemy will be at all polite to her when they meet her. but probably she doesn't expect even the polite Japanese to allow her to cut their heads off just to please her.
