The descendants OF the second wife, who was Stith
have no claim to relationship with the other line,
except where the two Boiling branches afterwards
intermarried. Intermarriage between neighbOring
families have been 80 numerous in tide water Vir-
gnia that at this day, after the lapse Of than
two hundred years, it would be difiult il not i'm
possible to distinguish the direct descendants Of
POcahonts from the collateral descendants. Suffice
to say that very many Of the most influential fam
lilies and eminent men Of this country owe their
origin to the Virginia Princess, who was ever the
friend from childhood OF the jamestown Colony.
She was buried at Gravesend, England, but no
stone marks her grave. The vicar Of the parish
says that ell trace Of PocahOntas remains has been
lost. While is no hope that Virginia will ever be
the resting place Of the remains Of this noble woman
it would be on an appropriate and beautiful thing
for the Society Of Colonial Danes TO erect q monu-
ment TO her memory either at Richmond or Wash
ingtOn.

government Of late The imperial troops are over
active. It ls doubtless true that prompt measures
are from time to time needed to suppress disturban
ces in the streets Of Russian Cities There is large
more or less laWless element in nearly all Of the
cities and in many Of the rural dstricts-O the Cars

these people. II allowed an inch they will sOme-
times take yard. It does seem reasonable, how
ever, to suppose that ordinary street disturbances
could be suppressed without deliberately shooting
down helpless women and children az fequent inter
walls.
There is no love between the imperial troops aud
the disturbing element. The former are looked
upon as the representatives Of oppressive form
Of government. The harsh feeling towards them Is
frequently productive Of great deal Of personal
hatred on the part Of the troops themselves who ap

IL from the fact that they feel confident Of govern
ment sympathy and bureaucratic support even when
they take advantage OF the least prOvocation to fire
into street crowds Russian soldiers heartily dis
like Russian civilians and especially the laboring
classes and appear to be glad Of an excuse to attack
them.
The shooting at Warsaw is reported TO have been
unprovoked. Naturally Indignation is widespread
all over the city. Peoples thoughts went back to
the st. Petersburg slaughter, and thinking people
doubtless wondered when these massacres will cease

The truth is Russian militarism run mad is large

that militarsm in at least reasonable form IS needed
to preserve order in that benghted land the root Of
the evil is Russian intolerance and Russian oppres-
sion as government institution. Individual lib
