Throughout the
Country.

While the military evidently have

vices say that great excitement ex-
lists throughout the country. Gem
era1 Trepoff, the new governor gen

absolute authority over the military
and police and even vested with the
power of exile. and it is evidtnt that
the government is dealing firmly with
the situation. Many persons have
been arrested, among them being

form leader. who, the Associated
Press is privately informed, was TAX,

A notice was posted today at all
the works in St. Petersburg giving
the strikers "a hours to return to
work and intimating that those who
do not comply will be deported to the
villages.
Dispatches from Moscow which to-
days advices indicate as the possible
storm center, say at Riga and Revel
troops are marching the streets and
the strikers are being fired upon.
At Saratofi the men in the railway
shops and other establishments have
gone out, but no disorder is reported.
The improvement in the situation is
reflected in generally hrmer tone

His FIRST Attempt.

Kansas City Times.
They were in carriage going to
ball. He was just of age and was
wearing his new dress suit 1t was
his first attempt at doing things up
in style.' Never before had he
worn dress suit or taken girl to
a social function in a carriage. he
had dressed in nervous haste, and yet
he had tried his best to see that his
raiment was absolutely faultless.
As they were driven rapidly to-
ward the hall they talked of the fine
time they expected to have. Sud-
denly the girl stopped talking and
gazed intently at the bottom OF the
hack. The youth noticed that she
was apparently interested in some
thing down there, and he asked:
"Mary, what's the matter with you!
What makes you so quiet? John"
she replied, ''perhaps I shouldn't ask
you such a question, but isn't there
something wrong with your feet?
The young man looked down. He
was still in his old carpet slippers
sockless.
