Censorship in Russia.

A correspondent tells the following story of methods of censorship in Rus sia
 l was at an evening party of the local press censor in a south Russian town. About midnight had strolled from the music room into card room, and was watching a game of cards, one of the players being our host, the censor, when the hostess approached her husband.
 ''I wish, my dear, you would step behind. There are three poor devils there who have been waiting for you a couple of hours. l did not wish to disturb you sooner.'
 '"They must wait little longer" re- piled the censor; q must finish my rubber"
 Twenty minutes later our host ab- sented himself for q quarter of an hour
 Meeting his wife next doy, I asked her who were the three poor devils" referred to.
 "Editors of the three local journals" she replied.
 They had waited two and half hours in the censor's back kitchen with their MSS. and proof sheets for that mornings issue, without which they could not go to press.

Why?

'I'd like to ask" began the irate passenger on the elevated train.
 What's that?" interrupted the man who was hanging to the next strap
 "Why, I'd like to ask why in thun- der it is that the fellows who run these trains don't learn how to start and stop them. Not more than one motorman in ten knows any more about air brakes than a coyote does about civilization. Now, we're con- ing to q station. Just notice how the train jerks and lurches and jumps when it slows down. There she goes. Excuse me, sir 1 didn't mean to step on your toe. Whoa, beg pardon, stranger l couldn't help pitching for ward. See? l told you. That fellow up in front holding the controller ought to be out husking corn. He couldn't make life miserable there for so many of us."-Chicago Inter Ocean.

Japan-s Exports Increasing.

In August, 1904, Japan exported $1,600,000 worth of manufactured silk tissues, against $1,1OO00O worth in August, 1903, an increase of $5OO,O0O. There was also an increase of $7O,0OO in the exportation of silk handker- chiefs. Japan's total exports in Au- gust, 1904, were of the value of $14,- S7S,0O0, against $15,547,00O in August, 1903. Such small decrease -$669,O00 in time of war is surprising. The falling off was in raw silk exported. Tea figures for $1,000O00, raw silk for $4,500,O0O, cotton yarns for $1,S5O,OOO, copper for $541,OOO

Old Fashioned Children.

To speak with precision, children's costumes do not begin before the clos ing year of the eighth century. Up to that time it was thought sufficient to dress the little folk, according to sex, 1n garments reproducing exactly those of the father and mother. Such clothes must, assuredly, have been very uncomfortable for creatures whose movements call for ease, and whose turbulence does not well accord With the. stiffness of the eighteenth century ruff, or the majestic amplitude of those perukes whose solemnity ap. pears to overshadow the intimate life of our progenitors.
 It is to be observed in this connec- ton that wherever in our day, ancient costumes have survived the invasion of the railroad and of what we are generally agreed to call progress, this manner of dressing children still con- tinues. Anywhere in Brittany, in Hol- land, or in certain remote parts of Switzerland and the Tyrol, one may meet boys and girls from to 6 years old promenading gravely in the habiii- ments of grown-up persons. And one perceives that such fashion springs from an undeveloped conception of early youth, conception which does not measure properly all the distance that separates the man from the child. Century.

Potato Crop Breaks Record.

The potato crop of 1904 beat a rec. ord, being 40,0O0,000 bushels more than the banner crop of 1896. The three years totals are. 1902, S4,OOO,- GOO bushels; 1903, 247,O00,OOO bushels; 1904, 3332 100000 bushels, twenty bush- els for every family in the country.
 New York is the champion potato State, says the New York World. The east end of Long Island is all one potato patch. Potato schooners haul up at little docks anywhere.
 Michigan and Wisconsin tie for sec ond place. Then, in order come Penn sylvania, Iowa, Name, Ohio, Illinois.
 Colorado has come to be quite q factor in the potato market She SUD- plies the southern and southwestern markets, principally Texas, Oklahoma and Indian Territory, also Kansas and western Nebraska.
 Potatoes are the fourth largest farm crop in this country, and are a very article of commerce, an ar- ticle found on the tables of rich and poor every meal.
 St. Louis is an important potato market, being distributing point for northern shipments during the fall and winter and southern shipments during the spring and summer St. Louis is located in one of the important potato growing districts of the country, the American bottoms, just east of the river in Illinois, where large quantities are raised each sea- son.

Protesting Against Rate Reduction.

Atlanta, Ga.-The recent proposi- tion of j.. Pope Brown, chairman of the Georgia Railroad Commission, to reduce the passenger rate in Georgia from three to two cents per mile was protested against by the Brotherhood of Locomotive Engineers, the Order of Railway Conductors, and unions of the blacksmiths machinists and tele- graphers, boiler makers, railway train men, carpenters and joiners, clerks and car men. These organiza- tions employed an attorney especially to represent them, who urged that such a reduction would work against the prosperity of the State and lead to reduction in the number of rail road employees as we'll as of their wages. The Travellers Protective As sociation also protested that reduc- tion as proposed would result in few trains and poorer service.

Music as q Profession.

Unless a man is rich he ought to be regarded as a criminal if he permits h1s sons or daughters to become musi. clans. In the musical profession there are few prizes not of the largest, but for the largest number of inter. Pretative artists the life is one of drudgery-the drudgery of learning, the drudgery of pushing ones self into notice and after all the continual drudgery of playing or singing just the music the public wants. I recon. mend no one to enter such profession unless he or she loves music to such a degree that the drudgery is a pleas. ure.-John F. Runciman in Saturday Review.

EARLY RISING AND LONGEVITY.
An Excellent Habit to Be Formed by
 Everybody for Health.

Most persons who have lived to be old have been good sleepers, but this does not mean that they have been long sleepers. A good sleeper is one who sleeps well. He may sleep quite enough in six or seven hours to an swer all his needs, and it would be folly for him to lie in bed three or four hours more. As a rule, long-lived per sons have been early risers, because they have been good sleepers. By
 "good sleep" is meant sleep that is sweet and sound, without dreaming refreshing; the body recuperates who'll ly. Those who love to rise early gen. erally are of this sort They have strong wills and good health to begin with. Late risers are often invalids or persons of bad habits-idlers who are never free from other vices be- sides idleness. The nervous eXhaus- tion which keeps man wakeful throughout the small hours requires sleep late in the morning. This eX- haustion is invariably due to one of several life-shortenng influences, espe- cially anxiety or indiscretlon in diet or drink. Early rising is thus rather one effect of certain favorable influences another result of which is longevity than q cause of longevity. To turn a weakly man out of bed every morning will not prolong his life unless he has c1a 1nnu nrpt,nI Draunntip,, Iy ly person from sleeping more than four or five hours nightly would not cause him to live to be old, but would tend to shorten his life. Early rising does not mean the time by the clock the word has relative significance with the time of going to bed. A per son who retires to rest four hours af- ter midnight and gets up at 10 a. m may be strictly regarded as an early riser. Thus early rising is synonymous with short sleeping, which means rap i'd recovery from fatigue, itself sign of bodily strength Early rising as a practice may be cultivated by all per sons in good health. It is excellent as moral discipline and eminently healthy as matter of fact. Most persons will eat three meals daily. When man gets up late those meals will probably follow each other at too short intervals and be eaten too rapid ly to be wholesome. When he is an early riser it will probably be other wise. He can enjoy a good break fast, and when his other meals are due he will be ready for them which is itself one of the signs of health.- New Orleans Times-Democrat.

above defendants and others conspir-
ed together for the purpose of de-
stroying the labor organization known
as the Western Federation of Miners;
that, further, on August 20, 1904 a

their pumps running at a great ex-
pense, and that when they learned
that the miners would not work the
pumps were stopped with the result
