The level ground of the tennis court
covers considerable space and the
audience seated themselves about it in
congenial groups. In the afternoon, in
order to avail themselves of the shelter
of the trees, the audience was quite
scattered, but so well have the players
learned to use their voices out Of doors
that they could be heard with perfect
ease. The stiffness of the day and the
woody enclosure contributed to this re.
suit. -

This entertainment is pronounced the

In T ur n a of last Wednesday
evening, under the heading Of s'Woman
Burglar Enters Convent" we read that
the police assisted MARY Strong" to con-
ceal her identity, and that great pre-
caution was taken to prevent the public
finding out who the burglar was, on ac-
count Of her relatives; we learn that she
is to sojourn at the House Of the Good
Shepherd in st. Paul. Is this public
institution for criminals, and are all Grim
inals shielded for the sake Of their rela-
tives? This would be nice (for the rela-
tives) but should be followed in all cases
if in this.
This proceeding seems peculiar, to say
the least, and would lead one to inquire
why is this thus? w. c. Wescott,

The Peace Commissioners.

The peace nag has leaped another
hurdle in the appointment of the Jap
anese and Russian commissioners ia
pan has named her minister of foreign
affairs and her minister to this coun-
try. Russia has nominated her former
minister of justice and her ambassa-
; dor to this country. The question of
the equal rank Of the commissioners,
which troubled both countries for q
/ while, has probably been amicably set
tied. Muravieff, while at present not
! holding as high an office as Komura,
!, has been, and may be again, the car 8
most trusted minister. Another ques-
/ ton which appeals to this coun-
i try as of far greater Importance
] than that Of rank has been
settled also. This is the question
of the powers of the commissioners.
Russia s original reply to the presi-
dent appeal was an acceptance Of it
in principle.' The form Of the ac-
ceptance seemed to be vague, and the
president has made every effort to clar-
ify the point to the satisfaction Of
| Japan.
The latter objected to going into a
conference in which she would be
called upon to state her terms and
then might find she was dealing with
persons who had not sufficient powers
to go ahead. The Russian commission
ers would be too much in the situa-
tion Of woman on a shopping tour
without money to buy with. They
might inquire prices, but could not do
business.
Japan wanted to deal with men who
had power to settle up the business.
In this she was backed by President
Roosevelt, and his publication Of the
names of the ENJOYS is taken as a
guaranty that this objection of Japan
( has been overcome. "
The Russians appear to have yielded
gracefully all along the line. They
i gave up The Hague and took Wash
ington as the place of conference; they
have named commissioners with powers
and they have put forward men who
are not predominantly known by, thu
traditional Muscovite idea Of diploma
cy. Baron Rosen was of the antiwa
party in Russia. AS minister to japan
he strove earnestly to convince hi
government that Japan was in earnes
and that war would follow any lack O.

In the face Of his warnings Nichola
allowed himself to be swayed by tn
incompetent Alexieff, who from Por
