REIGN OF TERRIER IN RUSSIA.
Strikes Continue at Home. Little Activ
ity at Seat OF War.

War news in the far East is very
meager. The excessive cold in Manchu-
ria seems to render military activities
impossible.
Internal troubles at home have be-
come very serious with Russia. Strikes
continue among the working classes,
who in some instances are gaining con-
cessions.
On February II the Grand Duke Ser
gius, uncle of the Gar, was murdered
by bomb being thrown under his car
riage. The assassins were captured,
but they seemed satisfied with the re-
suit.
The press dispatches indicate that
there is great terror in the Royal House
of Russia. 1t is considered dangerous
for the Car to attend the funeral of
the Grand Duke which is set for Feb
ruary %.
There is some talk Of peace between
Russia and Japan, but there is no tan
gible basis for the opinion other than
the terrible state of affairs at home.

waited them in the highest style Of the
agriculture of his time, but there are hun
dreds Of comparatively unknown men In
the West who not only possess larger
farms but keep them more easily under
cultivation by means of appliances OF
which Washington never dreamed. No
modern architect would think Of offering
anything like Washington's villa" at
Mount Vernon to modern wealthy buy
err The Presidents overland journeys
were accomplished in coaches. Perhaps,
however, there could be no more signif-
cant indication of the alteration that
science and civilization have worked than
the manner of the first Presidents death.
There is little doubt that the excessive
bleeding resorted to in his last illness
fastened his death, possibly many years
before the natural limit. A physician
who should be guilty of similar malprac-
tice now would find himself the object Of
prompt and vigorous prosecution III the
courts.
None Of these material changes in en-
vironment, however, seem to have set
the image Of Washington any further
away. That figure is as near and clear
to the people Of to-day as is Lincoln's.
In fact, the lapse of time has brought a
better understanding Of the man and q
more intense admiration for his very real
greatness. If there had even ever been
any doubt as to whether Washington's
fame was Of the Homeric kind, that in
creases with age it was erased long be-
fore this birthday.
The celebrations with which the day is
now observed very generally are grow
ing in number and have taken on a new
character within recent years. They are
more general and more earnest. The
way in which thinking men in clubs and
other organizations are falling into the
custom of devoting Feb. % to exercises
and speechmaking in the first Presidents
memory is itself significant of the growth
of interest in Washington and of the In
creasins appreciation of his high and pat
riotic ideals

WASHINGTON.

Rome had its Caesar, great and brave, but
stain was on his wreath;
he lived the heartless conqueror, and died
the tyrants death.
france had its eagle but his wings, though
lofty they might soar,
Were spread in false ambitions fight, and
dipped in murders gore.
Those hero-gods, whose mighty sway would
fain have chained the waves
Who flashed their blades with tiger zeal to
make world Of slaves
Who, though their kindred barred their
path still fiercely waded on
Oh, where shall be their glory" by the
side of Washington?
He fought, but not with love Of strife
he struck but to defend;
And, ere he turned a peoples foe, ne
sought to be a friend.
He strove to keep his country's rights by
reasons gentle word,
And sighed when fell injustice threw the
challenge-sword to sword.
He stood, the firm, the calm, the wise, the
patiot and sage.
He showed no deep, avenging hate-no
burst Of despot rage.
He stood for liberty and truth, and daunt-
TIL shouts Of victory gave forth the name
of Washington.
He saved his land, but did not lay his SOL
der trappings down
To change them for the regal vest, and don
kingly crown.
Fame was too earnest In her Joy-too proud
of such a SON
To let a robe and title mask the nopie

ly increased by lighting the table with
candles or two tiny lamps. In the end
the lamps are cheaper, for oil costs less
and the quantity consumed nightly is
scarcely to be counted. Very pretty
moderately tall ones of pressed glass
are to be had from $1.50 to 81 each, and
there should always be two or four if
the table is very big. Shade the lamps
with silk or paper covers of yellow,
pink, red or green. which will cast
pretty glow, and place the lights dag
onally across from each other at either
end of the table very close to the CEN
terpiece. If candles are preferred they
should be arranged in the same way
as the lamps.
In setting a table the main idea
should be to make it balance.
If heavy salt cellars are used place
them diagonally across from each other
at either end Of the table, as the lights
are, so that one viii be beside each
light. With the salts place the pepper.
If there are fancy spoons place them
about the centerpiece. whether they are
used or not. Two big spoons which will
be required for serving may be grouped
in front of the lamps, and pickles or
nuts placed near. The centerpiece, in
deed, is a sort of nucleus for things,
and when one is put at one side some
thing else should go at the other to
correspond. Do not put vegetable dishes
on the table, for they Will spoil the ar
tistic effect. It is quite as convenient
TO have a small linen covered table be-
side the dining table, and the small
table will be a server. On it may be
kept vegetables. bread, gravy, etc, and
when food is desired it can be reached
without rising from the table. Do not,
however, leave soiled plates upon it
when changing for dessert. Dishes fin
ished with for the meal should be rele-
gated from sight, for nothing is more
offensive than a pile of greasy, dirty
china. Neither should dishes be scraped
at the table. This is done only in a
pantry or kitchen. The dining room is
q place to eat in. not to clean.
Attractiveness is the Keynote of the
whole effort, and anything which adds
thereto should be done. 1t will ulti-
mately have a pronounced effect upon
the family temper at night and its in
fiuence will gradually extend to other
parts of the house.
