A CRISIS is NEAR AT HAND
War of the Masses Against the Glasses
in Russia Is Likely to Begin
on May Day.

ST. Petersburg, April 15.-DevelOp-
ments point to a crisis in the present
agitation among the workmen of the
cities and the peasants in the country
on May day and appeals are pouring in
from all quarters of Russia for mill
tary protection. The St Petersburg
worlimen are preparing a great dem
Onstration. Arms and bombs in large
quantities have been smuggled in and
bloOdshed is feared All the prominent
agitatOrs are being arrested or have
already been sent back to the villages
from which they originally came.

gregation itself
The ivy covering of the steeple was so
thick that for years the tunes of the bell
scarcely penetrated through the leafy
blanket. Recently the hindering foliage
has been cut away. and the belfry has
again become useful as well as orna-
mental.
The rector of st. Peters. known to the
fishermen as Capt. Stubbs, the sky pilot,
spends most of his time in a launch on
the sound ministering to his flock, which
is composed largely of fishermen. He is
a little English dominic with strict
ideas on the Sunday observance.
Not long ago the boatmen among
whom he labored held a Sunday regatta
in sight of the church, the proceeds to be
used for the purchase of a new launch
for Capt. Stubbs. When the committee
handed over an ample sum Capt. Stubs
declined it. at the same time delivering
a little lecture on Sunday regattas which
put an end to them Then he set to work
and built launch himself and went
about his pastoral duties with more Wig
or than before.
Although st. Peters was at one time
in the heart of the village of Tacoma,
unfriendly Siwash Indians manifested
such strong disapproyal of churchgoing
pioneers that a trusty shotgun came to
be regarded as necessary to the church
service as the Bible and hymn book.
To-day the hostile Indians have dis
appeared, and even the city of Tacoma
Itself seems to have abandoned the
church with its ancient tower. 1t is sur

pying the section Of Tacoma known as
Old Town. The business part of Tacoma
is three miles away. but one of the
buildings to which Tacomans point with
pride when explaining the superiority of
their city over Seattle is St. Peters
church.

800, 900 in the Bund

A graphic story of the growth of the
revolutionary movement in Russia, by
the years of faithful and persistent work
by the Bund, and Of the commanding po-
sition which it now holds, was told by
Moysey GOurevich, who arrived in this
country several days ago on the Staten
dam from Antwerp, and who is the first
member of the central committee OF the
Bund who ever came to this country.
Gourevich is a graduate Of the Uni
versity of st. Petersburg in the depart
ment of philosophy. Even as a student
he was connected with the revolutionary
movements of the time, and after he had
been member of the central committee,
which consists in all of but five men, and
in whom are concentrated the brains OF
the organization he was arrested in Wilma
and spent two years in solitary confine-
ment in the fortress there.
The Bund, according to Gourevich,
now has nearly 100000 enrolled mem
bers, and for ten years their work has
been entirely of the underground order.
They command a following of 100000
persons, absolutely loyal, and for years
have conducted six underground print
ing establishments in the empire, where
their manifestos were printed, no one OF
which was ever unearthed. For six
years they have printed every week
twentyfour-page newspaper, the plant
Of which was never discovered, although
the keenest detectives Of Russia were
hunting for it.
Yesterday Gourevich received from
the Geneva committee several cable
grams setting forth the latest conditions
in Russia. The cablegrams state that in
Homel, where there were massacres of
Jews several years ago, the Bundists
have practically taken possession Of the
government, and that after protracted
strike in all branches of industry there
were big meetings in which the members

Convention Of Council of Jewish Women

The fourth triennial of the Council
of Jewish Women opened its convention
most auspiciously in Chicago on Tuesday
afternoon. December 5th, with an infor-
nal reception rendered by the local COM
mittee to the national board delegates,
alternates and visitors.
A large audience greeted most enthu-
siastically the speakers of the evening.
The meeting was held in the main audi
torillm of Sinai Temple After an or
gan prelude, DR.. Emil G. Hirsch gave
the convocation, which was followed by
an address Of welcome in behalf of the
congregation given by Mr.. Harry Hart.
Miss Julia Falsenthal, the president of
the local section, welcomed the guests in
a short but beautiful speech.
The address of the evening was that
of Mrs Hannah Solomon the national
president.
After congratulating the members for
the good work accomplished by the coun-
ellis all over the country, the president
offers the following recommendations.
81 wish to recommend that we seek to
extend our organization in the following
manner: The large cities of the country
already being organized, we must now
turn our attention to the smaller cities
and towns. There is much work for us
to do and much can be accomplished if
we concentrate our efforts by attempt
ing to organize thoroughly one state at a
time. We should have an official organ
izer who should, during, let us say, the
months from November to March, care
fully visit and canvass every Jewish
community in one or two neighboring
states. In this way, believe, we would
gradually reach every group Of Jewish
women in the country.
I wish further to recommend the for
nation Of a general committee on immi-

grafton, with headquarters in New York
city, the gateway for our immigrants,
and with a member from each section,
whose special duty it shall be to do
whatever may be decided upon as neces-
sary to protect immigrant women and
girls; and the work undertaken by the
New York section should in my mind be
undertaken by the national organization
through the New York section.
| recommend that the council become
an active and paying member Of the
Conference of Jewish Charities, to
which it now only occasionally sends an
official representative.
l further recommend that the council
ask of each of it's sections to print
year book, not with the program Of the
year only, but with a report of it's past
years work. Such complete record OF
our work would be invaluable.
/ wish further to recommend what
seems to be matter of very great i'm
portance and the duty of such an Or
ganzation as ours-an inquiry into the
number Of Jewish women in colleges, in
the various professions, as professional
workers in philanthropy and other fields.
| further wish to recommend as our
special work for the coming triennial
period an inquiry into the number and
character of children, and Of girls and
women in our city and state charitable
or correctional institutions. The result
of such an inquiry would be most valu-
able, and could be done had we proper
office and clerical force; and could not
be done without. However, unless done
without proper facilities, which natur-
ally entails large expense, it would be
valueless.
Further, wish to recommend what

This is the result of the meeting

that there is not business enough after

about the shops. Already there are
a number of complaints from wives

Snowfall in The Mountains.

During January the snowfall over
the different drainage areas each
considered as a whole was about
nOmal. except in the northwestern
part of the state, where deticieny
seems to have been general. A COM
parison of tie current amounts with
those reported year ago shows that
on Jan. 81. the average date of the
reports there was about One-third
more SHOW at high elevations on
the upper drainage areas of the
Grand and Gunnison and double the
amount of a year ago on the water
shed of the Arkansas and the South
Platte, while for the Rio Grande
there was marked excess. The
warn. periods were favorable to solid

IT B0BS UP AGAIN
Old Talk About Another State
Normal School.

The struggle of the western slope
to get state normal school in its
midst has assumed new form.
There are five towns contesting for
the location of the school-Gunni-
son. Grand Junction, Delta, Montrose
and Glenwood Springs.
Some wise person, familiar with
the devious ways of legislatures has
come forward with the suggestion
that ii the western slope really hopes
to get normal school, it had bet
ter unite on a bill which shall pro-
vide for the establishment of the
school without specifying its loca-
tion. This bill should also make
provisions for the creating of a COM
mission to select the site. In this
way. it is argued, rival towns could
settle their difference at their leis-
ure without endangering their pros
poets by any legislation establishing
the school.
With view of reaching some
conclusion in the matter committee
representing the Business Mems as
sociation of Delta reached Denver
Thursday. The committee has two
representatives in the legislature.
Senator Horace De Long of Grand
junction and Representative n. NJ.
ieistand of Delta.
The Business Mems association
of Delta has arrangd to donate a
valuable tract of land for the site.
This committee will stay in Den
yer several days and confer with its
legislative representatives also with
those interested in securing the
school at places other than Delta.
The members will agree as to
whether they wish to have the bill
made general in its character. or
whether they want to stay in the
fight for Delta to the finish. What
ever the committee decides upon
will be advocated by Senator De
Long and Representative Heistand.

The Seven Lakes Reservoir COM
pany held its annual meeting last
Friday and elected W "a. Insinger,

The board reported the bonding of
the system for s3G. 600 at per cent.
A contract has been made by the
Seven Lakes stockholders with those
of Lake Loveland by which the flood
waters of the Big Thompson, after
filling Lake Loveland through the
Barnes ditch will be diverted into
the Seven Lakes system by means
of the new ditch, which will be 3, 400
feet in length.
Work on the new ditch will begin
as soon as the weather will permit
to enable the storing of this springs

Lakes system supplies the same
country as Lake Loveland many
farmers hold stock in both. Only
moderate amount of work will oe re-
quired to give the Seven Lakes sys-
TEN "A capacity of 500, 900. 600 cubic

The cause of the excitement was
the opening of the doors OF the Old
st bank in Greeley, as national
bank. A little notice OF the coming
change was given out couple Of
weeks ago, but it was not expected
to occur quite so soon. The charter
for the bank, however, arrived Sat
urday, and no time was lost in pre-
liminary preparation. The bank is
now working as part of Uncle Sans
great financial system.
The Union National Bank of
Greeley is a direct descendant Of the
Flower, Cameron & Benedict bank,
the first opened in Greeley. In 1877
the institution was incorporated as
