HUNTING IN RUSSIA.
Wartime Sport on Country Gentleman's
Estate Near NJ OscOw.

J Although the calling out Of the reserves
had made some reductions In the stan OF
| household and farm servants on the estate
| that visited last August in Russia, said a
| young New Yorker on his return from
| abroad last week, Il met with the same
hospitality and found every other condition
about the same as when l was there the
year before, when a war with japan was
the last thing expected.
-The estate was some two hundred mil es
from Moscow and the life seemed to me
much like what it must have been In the
South before the rebellion. the country
houses being maintained on a large and
semi-aristocratic scale, and lying about
fifteen or twenty miles apart in the centre
Of great expanses Of titled land. My object
was to get some hunting In the Russian
style and had plenty Of novel and exciting
sport.
1T was something in the order Of English
fox hunting, for the sportsmen are mounted
and the quarry is run down by dogs, the
guns not being In Use at all. There was
plenty Of hard riding that tested the jump
ing abilities Of the horses, but 10 regular
fences as in England. We hunted foxes
and hares. for the greatest sport OF the
Russian country gentleman, wolf hunting,
may only be had in the cold months.
The bunting was on broad stretches Of
grass land, resembling the Western prairies
with here and there patch Of woods as
coverts. Three or four made UP each
hunting party and we would take places
at intervals apart about the covert.
"A mounted keeper stayed with each
sportsman. holding three wolf hounds on a
leash. Other keepers on foot, with q pack
OF fox hounds, went through the woods
to drive out the game.
wolf hounds hunt only by sight and the
fun would begin when fox or a hare broke
from the covert to make q dash across
the prairie to the next woods. perh APPS
two or three milcs of. The wolf hounds
would catch sight Of the quarry and strain
at the leash, but the keeper would hold
them until the flying animal got 60 cd
start.
Then II the game should be hidden
in the grass, the wolf hounds would zigzag
like flashes of lightning until they set eyes
on it, when a desperate race would ensue,
with the fox or hare doubling when hard
pressed and the hounds darling along
in gigantic leaps with the speed Of racing
automobiles. The prettiest sight imagin-
able is TO see huge wof hound, when first
slipped, spring UP In the air far higher than
POISED in the aff, they suggest big fly
ing squirrels, and they mount and descend
as lightly. Although in the air for only
an instant. they have such keen eyesight
that the fitting and dusky foxes or bar es
are at once picked out, and. giving tongue
with bell like barks, the team Of hounds
is off In chase

Startling and strange, indeed, was
the death Of Mr.. William Cherry, at
Woodland, Wednesday night. The
young man had completed a hard
days labor and retired for his nights
rest apparently in the best of health.
During the night his relatives were
summoned to his bedside by his means
and cries of pain. They found the
young man fast asleep, but evidently
suffering in a most painful manner.
They made every effort to awaken
him, but did not succeed. A physi-
clan was summoned but before he ar
rived death had relieved the suffer
ings OF the stricken man, who died
without awakening. Authorities state
that his death was due to horrible
nightmare. Had be been awakened
in time his life would have been saved.

A Quarrel on Paper.

They were sitting at the tea'taole'
and were on the verge of that dread
full first quarrel, which the young wife
had prayed might never come. Inc
husband had uttered criticism that
she thought unkind and -undeserved'
al can find fault with many things,
too" she flashed out.
ooh, indeed, he said, coolly; "and
what are they, pray?"
She paused a moment. If she gave
utterance to the sharp words tremo-
ling on her lips, she knew that the
opening wedge of discord would have
entered. On the other hand. 1t was
severe trial to curb her impetuous
spirit and receive the husbands re-
buke meekly. But her good angel
triumphed. After a short silence

I ought t. say what l thought. l be-
lieve I'll keep it till tomorrow, and

plate.
He smiled at her whimsical answer,
and the cloud disappeared. After
tea she said, II have a proposition to
make.
"Wbat is it?" he asked gaily.
1--WE nearly had quarrel, and, of
course, it must not happen again.
Hereafter, if either has any criticism
to make on the other, let US wait a
day, and then, if we still wish to make
it, write it out, instead Of saying it.

rate in the mere act of reducing it to
writing, and then some heartaches
would be spared"
He laughed, but in his heart he
acknowledged the wisdom Of her plan,
and SO agreed to it. They have been
married three year, now, and both
are still waiting tJr the first letter Of
criticism. The quarrel on paper has
never begun.
Most of us might use the brides
plan with profit. If we would wait
and write the unkind speeches, won

delivered to wound loving hearts.
Of course, some people would quarrel
by telegraph, if there were no other
way, but doubtless they are very few,
and three fourths of our vexing, I'M
dignifed and unloving disputes might
be avoided if we would wait to quar-
rel on paper.

Movements of Chinese Troops.

II is said that the additional assurances
from China regarding her neutrality during
the existing hostilities were in response TO
an inquiry from Mr.. Conger, the American
minister at Picking. who. under instruc-
tons from the State Department asked the
Chinese officials in a general way about the
significance of the activity of the Chinese
troops on the Manchurian border. Russia,
Germany and France have felt some un-
easiness about the movements of these
hoops. fearing that a juncture with the
japanese forces was contemplated. This
government, however, has not shared IN
the uneasiness. and the positive character
Of the assurances that China not only
would observe. but would maintain, tho
strictest neutrality, leads to the belief th1t
the maneuvering of her army is for thu
legitimate purpose of getting it in shape to
put down any disorder that may arise as
the result of the war.

Secretary Cortelyou's speeches before
some of the principal commercial organiza-

cial attention to the new department Of
which he is the head and showing to the
world Of labor and Industrial enterprise
that they have In this branch of the gov
eminent service a friendly co-operator in
stead of an enemy.
Many of the great merged interests Of
the country have looked with suspicion on
the Department Of Commerce and Labor
and the world Of wage-earners has had it's
doubts OF the sincerity of the latest Gre
alton of Congress. From the inception and
organization of the new department, now
just entering on it's second year of life. it
has been the object of the accomplished
Secretary first Of all to win the respect
and confidence Of all classes of industry.
and then, to prove that the department
was worthy OF that confidence. The law
that created the department provided that
its object should be ITO foster, promote
and develop the foreign and domestic COM
merce. the mining. manufacturing, Ship
ping and fishing Industries. the labor inter-
ests, and the transportation facilities of
the United States and it ia along these
broad lines that the work has been car
ried and an energetic attempt made to
prove to all the people that its object was
beneficial and not deterrent to the pro-
gress of the national body. With the first
year of its life it has achieved most Of the
results at which it aimed and today is
looked up to by the mass Of the people as
one of the greatest. If not the very great

federal work is divided.

began with Secretary Cortelyou. who took
in hand it's organization with an energy
that carried out by man stanch of pur-
pose and enthusiastic In his work. prom

looked about him and then selected as his

cocks ability in the special line of work to
which he had given some of the best efforts
Of his life was acknowledged, and the
choice of Secretary Cortelyou has since
proven wise. Together these two men went
to work to organize the new department,
