Ru :StAN WAR PARTY ACTIVE.
Making Strong Fight Against Move
-ment for Peace.

Paris, June 13.-Opinion in official
and diplomatic quarters is becoming
rather pessimistic as to the outcome
of the peace movement owing to the
st. Petersburg dispatches showing the
reserved attitude of Russia and the
activity of the war party. A special
dispatch to the :semioEcial Temps
says the influential Russians forming
the war element are making a strong
rally, reinforced by a protest against
peace Stelegraphed from the field by
General lLinevttch and all the division
commanders. However, the Temps
adds that the civilized world "contin-
nes to support the energetic yet pru-
dent efforts of President Roosevelt to
end the terrible slaughter"
The Russian officials here reflect a
view similar to that outlined in the
st. Petersburg dispatch Ito the Temps,
saying that a great deal remains to
be determined upon before definite
accord is arranged. ''''

st. Petersburg, June 13.-The Rus
sian experiment in parliamentarisrs
will begin in September The Asso>
eiated Press is now in a position to
make this positive announcement.
The emperor has already given his
approval to the scheme now being
finally but formally reviewed by the
council Of state for legislative body
consisting of a lower house and an
upper house, with power to formulate
legislation, discuss the budget, inter-
pellate ministers, ETC., but reserving
In the emperor's own hands the final
authority. The elections will take
place during the coming summer. Al
though the scheme clings with des-
peration to the essence of autocracy
1t marks the beginning of the end. The
die once cast there can be no retreat
and the quasi-parliamentary regime
which will be inaugurated will prove
to be only transitory bridge over
which absolutism must cross to con-
stitutienalism. Peace and constitu-
ton appear simultaneously on tbs
Russian horizon. The proclamation OF
parliament either in the form of 6
manifesto or as ukase will be pro-
mulgated within few days.

THE INDIANS PAINT.
Every Mark on His Face Has Mean
Ing Plain to other Red Men.

Every Mark on His Face Has a Mean
Ing Plain to other Red Men.
The fact Of the matter is that every
paint mark on an Indians face is a
sign with definite meaning which
other Indians may read. When an
Indian puts on his full war paint, he
decks himself not only with his own
individual honors and distinctions
won by his own bravery, but also with
the special honors Of his family or
tribe. He may possess one mark OF
distinction only, or many; in fact, he
may be so well off in this respect that,
like some English noblemen, he is
able to don a new distinction for
every occasion. Sometimes he will
wear all his honors at one time.
Among the Indian tribes is one
designated by the symbol of the dog
fish, painted in red on the face. The
various parts of the fish are scattered
heterogeneously on the surface of the
face; the peculiar long snout is
painted on the forehead, the gills are
represented by two curved lines be-
low the eyes, while the tail is shown
as cut in two, and hanging from
either nostril. When. only one or two
parts of an animal are painted on a
mans face, it is an indication of in
feriority when the whole animal APP
pears, even though in many oddly
assorted parts, the sign is one of
great value and indicates high
rank.
Very peculiar are some of the hon
orable symbols painted on the In
dians' faces. They are fish, flesh and
fowl Of all kinds--dog salmon, devil
fish. star fish, woodpeckers, eagles.
ravens, VOLTS, bears. sea lions and sea
monsters. mosquitoes, frogs, noun
tain goats and all manner of foot,
claw or beak marks-each with
special meaning of its own.

In sight of the hospital in which he
had for years devoted himself to the
relief OF suffering, he shot down like
dog the young man just as he was in
the act OF helping the lady into a car
riage. Three shots took effect, and
the victim fell stone dead. The assas-
sin spared his wife and calmly walked
home, unmolested, with the revolver
in his hand.
Within an hour the assassin was put
under arrest, and by a special order Of
the public prosecutor-as If the thing
had been foreseen--he was conducted
to the little-used prison of the Fort de
San Julian for safe keeping. 1t is to
this precaution that he probably owes
his life to-day, for the mob that gath
cred after the funeral Of the victim
allowed itself to be discouraged only
by the obvious impossibility of pene-
trating such fortress, and It was at
this funeral that the spontaneous in
dignation Of all Lisbon, that has dis
turbed even the cynical king, first
manifested itself.
The king has visited the demented
physician and it is said that by in
terposition Of royal decree he is to be
acquitted when his case comes to trial.

in linen busters. 1t was a motley

brook married and soon thereafter
took up agriculture as his vocation.
He applied himself to a scientific
study Of farm work and, by writing
for various farm journals throughout
the State, he attracted attention to
himself. His writings were read far
and wide and had much to do with
his introduction to public life. When
he went to the State Senate in 1S49,
he was not a total stranger to the
people OF mis- State and before he had
been there long they knew him as
one OF the stanchest men in that
body. The following year he was
reelected. In 1850 he was made
president of the Vermont State Agri-
cultural Society which had just been
organized and he remained at its head
10 years. In 1860 he was elected Gov
ernor and served four years. He was
one Of Lincoln's most loyal support
ers and it was upon his suggestion
that the martyr President called for
300,O 900 volunteers in 1862. The same
year the Governor secured the estab-
lishment of military hospital at
Brattleboro and invalid soldiers were
sent there from the southern battle
fields. At one time as many as 1000
sick soldiers were being cared for in
the buildings and in tebts.
At the close Of his second term
Gov. Holbrook resumed his agricul-
tural pursuits. He had a genius for
inventing mechanical implements and
improving on those already made. A
firm in Boston kept him almost con
stantly employed. How the Govern

A GRAND OLD MAN.

Eighty Eighth Anniversary Of His
Birth.

Sound in health. his mental vigor
unimpaired, Frederick Holbrook, war
Governor of Vermont, celebrated the
SSth anniversary of his birth at his
home in Brattleboro the other day.
Gov. Holbrook is one of the grand old
men of the nation. He is probably
the Oldest Ex-Governor in the country
and one Of the few survivors among
those men who were at the head OF
State governments during the civil
strife.
Gov Holbrook was born in Con-.
necticut, but his parents went to the
Green Mountain State when he was
mere boy. locating at Brattleboro,
where his father was engaged in va
rious lines Of trade and manufacture
and was one of the foremost citizens.

ferent stories are told of the manner
In which his life was saved One is
to the effect that his wife, Eleanor,
sucked the poison therefrom. An
other, and the most probable one, is
that an English surgeon who was
with the crusaders cut away the af-
fected flesh The wound. however,
permanently, enfeebled his constitu-
tion and many years later sharp at
tacks os sickness were traced back by
his physicians to the effect Of the as
sassin's blow. In the conquest OF
Wales. 1874 to 1901. he displayed mill
tary genius and diplomatic ability.
He marked the closing years Of his
reign by the subjugation of Scotland
which was made part Of his king

ity were also often tried in many
minor uprisings, rebeIlions and feuds.

Henry III. His accession was re-
ceived with rejoicings everywhere in
England. At the age OF S3 the new
King ascended the throne which he
was so brilliantly qualified to adorn.
The years OF his apprenticeship had
suggested the main lines Of the policy
on which he was to act for the whole
Of his long reign. His work as a
King was 10 strengthen and develop
the royal power, to widen the hold
Of the King on the nation by taking
the people into partnership with him
In the administration of his inherit
ance, to work out under happier aus
pices the great ideas of Montfort and
to turn schemes meant to bring
about revolution into devices for the
regular government OF the realm. His
ambition was to stand forth as the
truly national King. one who ruled
by the advice OF his own mobiles. and
scorned foreign favorites and para
sites. The lack of good laws during
his fathers reign impressed upon him
the need OF legislation and the codi-
fication OF all English law. In carry
ing out this he was eminently sue
cessfuf and displayed great legal
knowledge.

AIexandrm Can Trim Her Hats and
Mako Her own Frocls-
Millinery is one OF the many useful
accomplishments OF the new Queen
consort OF Great Britain. In early
life Alexandra and her Danish sisters
were brought up on decidedly narrow
incomes and had to make the most
OF a scanty provision for the wardrobe.
The consequence was that Alexandra
learned to trim her own hats and
bonnets as well as make her own
frocks. This talent was not neglected
when she went to England as the
bride of the young Prince of Wales.
If the court milliners sent home hats
or bonnets which we're not to her
taste-if they were clumsy or unbe-
coming-the princess scissors were at
hand to take off the trimming and
remodel the offending piece Of milli-
merry.
Very few women of her age con-
tinue to look well in the so-called
straw sailor hat. Numerous pictures
OF the Princess Of Wales show her
fondness for this headdrees. But it
is not to be supposed that as her ma
jesty she will be photographed in the
sailor hat. Many of the recent photo
