WITH RUSSIAN STORES.

Roiesvensky's Squadron.

Vessel Leaves Saigon to Replenish
Rojesvensky's Squadron.
Paris, April II. A dispatch from Sai-
gon announcing the presence of Russian
warships at Kamranh Bay is considered
as showing that Admiral Roiesvensky
is not moving northward as fast as ex
pected.
The fact that Admiral De Jonquieres,
the French naval commander at Saigon,
is proceeding to Kamranh Bay and the
departure from Saigon last night of a
vessel having on board cargo of Rus.
sian stores combined to indicate that
the Russian rendezvous is not far dis
tant from Saigon, and that prObabl.
that it is in or near Kamranh Bay.
The officials here say that no govern
ment dispatches have been received.
They have been privately informed that
the Russian squadron was off the coast
of Indo-C China two days ago, but are pos
tive that the squadron is now further
north, probably sheltering along the
coast of Anam This locality is consid-
cred particularly dangerous owing
the rocky coast, the currents and the
prevalence of tropical storms.
The appearance of a case of beri-beri
at Saigon caused apprehension, as it
resembles yellow fever and is similarly
infectious.
The halt of the Russian apparently
was due to Admiral Rojestvensky's de-
sire to have an opportunity to commun-
icate with St. Petersburg and gather
information concerning the movements
of the ,JaDanese.

The Family Spirit.

Higher education" says Bishop Pot
ter, has increased woman's selfish
ness" 1.-THE divorce" he adds, sis
merely a recognition of something
which has already been accomplished
What. therefore, we must study are the
causes for this passing of the family
spirit this degeneration of the home in
stinct. And what we must aim at is
the recreation of the family in the
patriarchial sense" In other words. the
individual interest has excluded the So
cial and society becomes an aggregate
of unrelated units. Such result might
have been expected, says the St. Louis
Post-Dispatch. In old times the man
died in the village where he was born.
In the churchyard were the graves of
his parents and grandparents and
more remote ancestors. He was identi-
fed with his family and the circle of his
friends. He had no life apart from
them. In our time the boy who stays
at home is a dull boy. The ambitious
go west, or to China, or South Africa;
wherever he is, he must go somewhere
else, Ancient ties are broken and the
individual lives for himself alone. He
does not know where his grandfather
lies buried. Often he does not know his
full name. The habits of selfishness
acquired while he is making his for
tune cling to him after he marries. Is
it wonderful that trouble often comes?
1t is growth of the time which must
be accepted as fact and turned to So
cial account, difficult as the task may
be. Probably the family in the patri-
archial sense" will never be restored,
but the family, vital and indestructible,
is essential to civilization; it will out
live the chaos of selfishness and he the
nucleus of saner and stronger social
life.

Clothinp of children.

A certain mothers club devoted one
Of its meetings recently to the suggest
i've and profitable theme of children's
clothing. 1t does not follow, unfortu.
nately, that a child who is fashion
ably dressed is sensibly dressed and
the critics found most of their "horrible
examples among the well-to-do, in
stead Of among the poor. The small
boys leather CATERS, for one thing,
were roundly denounced. It was charged
that they condemn him to stiff legged
strut as far as possible removed from
the graceful freedom of childhood
Nor does summer bring comfort to his
legs, or to those Of his little sister for
the short-stocking fashion is friendly
to none but mosquitoes. Possibly
children Of both sexes have grievance
in the summer use of sandals for foot
wear, although boys who have gone
barefooted will not admit it. But un-
doubtedly small girls might complain
of their huge, beribboned hats, 'the
first step toward st. Vitus' Dance as
recent writer has called them, since
to keep them on and in place is per-
petual strain on the nerves. The
melancholy conclusion of the Mothers
club was, says Youths Companion,
that the worst offenders against hy-
giene and common sense are people
who have plenty of money. Such par
ents, or some of them, make their chill
dren lead IAN almost adult life" and
the evil influence of their example af-
fects many persons who wish above all
things to be wise and kind. Pos
sibly return to simplicity is needed
in this quarter. Talk of "childrens
fashions" sounds rather ridiculous
when we stop to think what childhood
should be. The only defensive prac-
tice, in the matter of clothing and
everything else, was once summed up
by Maine farmer: Keep the young
ones clean and warm, and able to eat
and sleep and work and play-and en-
joy it all"

London, April IS In the absense
Of further information regarding the
disposition of the Russian and Japanese
fleets the London morning papers are
keenly discussing the neutrality ques-
ton, for the most part in strong pro
Japenese tone. The Morning Post takes
the milder view that Kamrah Bay is q
mere fishing port and unable to provide
coal oil other supplies to the Russian
squadron, which probably took shelter
there to replenish from its own golfers,
and that a technical breach of neutral
ity has been committed. The French au-
thority could hardly be held respon
stable unless it can be proved that they
had previous knowledge Of Rojestven-
sky's intentions.
