of so many unhappy homes.
No woman can be amiable, light

.RUSSIA'S POSITION
PUBLICLY DEFINED
Terms of Peace Which Can BE
Accepted Made Known.
DEMANDS MUST BE MODERATE
One of the Leading Papers of Russia
Declares tlsat Their PIenipotentiaries
Must Defend the Caucasian Race
Against the Yellow Peril.

st. Petersburg, July 17.-1:27 p. m.
The Novoe Vremya today prints the
following statement of Russia's posi-
ton, which may be inspired:
Russia can consent only to such a
peace as will not affect the dignity or
vital interests of the empire. To act
otherwise would be fatal to Russia
and would threaten all Europe. Eu
rope no longer believes in Japan's as
surances that she will not restrict Eu
ropean interests in the Far East. Even
in England and America the voices
of moral instigations can be heard in
favor of the indirect interference OF
the powers to moderate Japan's de-
mands. Our plenipotentiaries must
remember that they must defend the
interests not only of Russia but also
of the other Caucasion powers and
they will find moral support in Berlin,
Paris, Washington and perhaps even
in London. Our army in the field is
much stronger than it was Is months
ago. The Hamburger Nachrichten
proposes that Europe intimate to ia
pan that extreme demands will be re.
sisted by Europe in general and espe.
cially Germany This is valuable
statement. We must ascertain tho
accebtable maximum of our con-
cessions to Japan from the European
point OF view act accordingly.

BUSY WEEK AHEAD OF soLoNa.
Georgia Legislators viii Have Plenty
of Work To Do,


Atlanta, July 17.-This is going to
be busy week with the legislature
The lower house, at least, and its com.
mittee, are going to have just about
all they can do. And it is not likely
there will be much tagging on the
senate side of the general assembly
The senate has some important legis-
lation ready for consideration, and
one or two lively debates may be
forthcoming.
The anti-pass bill by Mr. Hall, of
Bibb, is promised as the opening bill
in the house. This bill, which for
bids any corporation to issue a free
pass or frank to any publi% official of
the state under penalty of 81 900 fine,
comes back from the general judiciary
committee with a favorable report by
vote of % to g.
The general appropriations commit
tee of the house will begin its hard
est work on Tuesday afternoon. when
it will tackle the general appropria-
tions bill. This measure the commit
tee proposes to report back to the
house within a week or ten days at the
outside. 1t depends on the extent to
which the committee can scale this
bill, how much there will be left for
special appropriations. The present
indications are that there will be very
little doing in this line unless the com
mittee finds some money, and so far
as is known the state has not lost any.
There will be about S150,00O for this
purpose, and at least 100000 will be
asked.
There are indications that the pres
ent general assembly will enact some
sort of legislation regarding the West
ern and Atlantic railroad, and there
are several propositions on this line
now before the house and senate.
Over in the senate there seems to
be a strong inclination toward the
99-year lease plan as outlined in the
bill boy Senator w. S. McHenry, of
the forty-second. This, it is argued
would effecutally dispose of the state
road question, would insure the state
a good steady income from its prop
erty and at the same time leave the
state with an asset upon which 1t
could realize at any time that it might
become necessary. 1t is also said
that the lessees, thus securing prac
tical ownership, would not hesitate
to make all needed improvements and
keep fully abreast of the times.

The jaguar and a polar bear occu-
pied two compartments in a large cage
that was loaded on a flat car of the
train belonging to circus. The car
was too large to enter a tunnel and as
the car struck the roof of the tunnel

tunnel but upon emerging at the other

animal was again captured and
