Washington. Feb. 27.-rhe announce. ment that the Russian government has directed the three officers who broke their parole and escaped from the Lena at San Francisco to return to that ship was received with qualification at the navy department principally because Admiral McCalla. who Is directly re- sponsible for the detention of the IIe- mas person will be relieved from what otherwise might be a disagreeable ne cessity of abi id9ing Inc shore leaves of the Lena's officers and crew in the fu- ture.
 The action also relieves the state de- partment rem making apologies to Ja- pan for permitting breach of neutral ity such as might be properly charged If Russian sailors interned under con- ditions imposed in the Lena case were allowed to escape. It is believed that the Japanese government might readi- ly assent to the Lena crews return 10 Russia under pledge to refrain from further engaging in the war if properly approached on the subject, but 1t Is re- garded as necessary to maintain the principle involved in interment and Japanese consent first must be sought to secure the release of the men.

Miss Jeanette Kling. aBifted elccu- tionist of Cincinnati.
 Miss King. who Is a niece of Mrs. Isidore We'll, the President of the Council, was prevailed upon during social visit in the city to give the recital prior to her appearance in the Lyceum course at Albany, Ga, and other cities of the South.
 The artists program yesterday was sufnciently diversified to sustain her reputation as one of the best attrac. Lyceum platform. The selections rendered were as follows: <
 The. Little God and Dickie." by Mary Dodge Daskam.
 "oueen Anne my Ruth McEnery Stuart.
 Judith. and Holofernes." by Thomas Baily Aldrich. .
 His Courier by>o. Heury.
 The Irish Mother" by Ellene The old Played Out sOar." by James
 MonolosuswsA visitor." by May Isabel Fiske. Miss King has temperament. Her methods are simple. Her expression of feeling Is delicate. Her voice utters kindness in tones that come from a heart habituated to kindliness and forbearance. The lines about the mouth respond to sentiment and atten- ton is centered on a face lit up by eyes aglow with the soul.
 Her very first selection--a brief piece in a humorous vein illustrating the comical stubborness of childhood--es- abolished her firmly in the affection of her auditors. 'Queen Anne" proved to be only a black-faced pickaninny. but her pathetic story drew tears from every eye.
 Judith and Holofernes" was the piece de resistance of the afternoon. Here Miss Kling displayed versatili- ty, intelligence and high training in her art, such as in uncommon even in the dramatic stage. The piece, which might easily have been made noisely emotional. showed the self-restraint. the quiet dignity. the repressed force, the subtle power of an artiste, whose work springs directly from high men tality.
 His Courier by O. Henry was 6e- Iightful bit of comedy into winch the slang and follies and fads of the hour are crowded with such bewildering profusion that all criticism is com ~pletely disarmed.
 Miss King scored heavily in her sEdphtC tch0OAthe VI 4AS @AAo1 Mother" She Is an elocutionist who subordinates elocution, posture, and gesture to spiritual intimacy with the character she depicts.
 The pathetic poem of Riley "The Old Played Out Song was so heartily eneored that the artist was compelled to give another selection before the audience would permit her to retire.
 She chose for the concluding number a monologue, entitled "A Visitor" Miss Kings acting in the part of shall low-brained, selfish, self-assertive, gossippy, irascible Yankee woman was delicious comedy.
 Miss King was altogether capti- vating surprise to those who were privileged to hear her. Possessing a fine stage presence. a voice that alter nately thunders and pleads, with eyes that speak and a winsome countenance irradiating the changeful demands of the soul-is it strange that this artist made an impression that will not soon ha fnrDoffenS

Trix of the Trade.

The mail order houses have
new advertising trick. They are
sending agents from town to town
with quantities of goods to be dis
posed of at ridiculously low prices
or even in some cases to be given
away without money and without
price. These agents are usually
skilled performers and begin their
operations with free open. air
concert to attract the people. Once
the crowd has gathered, the trunks
are opened and the goods begin to
move out. And one of these fakirs
will handle five times as many
goods as all the stores of the town
will handle in the same time. What
next, we wonder. Is not the situa-
ton rather anomalous? On the
one hand we have the huge cata-
logue houses scattering money
with lavish hand for advertising
purposes and demanding and
making new opportunities for
sending more. As against these,
we find the hone merchants, whom
we all wish to protect, looking on
half indifferently, even sleepily,
looking to their friends to be their
81 ield and their defense. And be-
tween the two, the local press, the
advertisers spokesman, courted
by the alien with his gold, yet re.
pelling him and making the fight
almost single-handed for home in
stitutions. And the editor, mark
you, is wondering in his inmost
soul whether patriotism in these
days is paying proposition.

In the breast of every man there
is spirit that is never still. 1t is
either filled with love for, a desire
to share with it the beautiful,
charming, delightful, delectable,
enchanting. lovable, amiable things
and places of all nature, or else it
is filled with hatred, aversion, in
tense dislike, detestation, repug-
nance, opposition, contrariness, in
consistency, irreconcilab bility, and
hostile to all things, people and
places. Which dear reader do you
prefer, peace or discord? You must
have the one or the other. Ifpeace,
practice it and preach it. If dis
