St. Petersburg, April 25.-An inter-
esting manifestation of the compare
tive liberty which the Russian press,
in spite of the frequent arrests OF ed1-
tors and representations of papers, now
enjoys is the publication this month of
a number of important historical docu-
ments and sketches on which the cen
sorship had hitherto sets its most rig

Russian court life of the eighteenth

lives and loves of Russian sOvereigns,

Russia even today is looked upon al
most as lese majeste. A magazine,

forbidden ground by printing the

playing with human lives
Even pure literature under present
political conditions has assumed

is talking of a new sketch of Leonid
Andreiff, the talented young disciple of
Gorky, whose red laugh" inspired by
the reex of blood on Manchurian bat
tIefields and the slaughter IN the
streets of st. Petersburg, caused such
a sensation when published after red
sunday - January e22, 1905. His new
sketch, entitled THE Governor is a
physiological study Of a provincial
official who had ordered the troops to
fire upon an assemblage of workmen
and who is condemned and executed
by a revolutionary tribunal. It is
powerful piece of writing without the
affectations and tricks of style which
marred ''The Red Laugh" and in its
descriptions of the slow awakening,

heaps of sprawling corpses to a sense

Auto Opens New Fields.

An automobile milk wagon which
Is running in Ohio and doing the
work of two and three horses every
day is one of the developments of the
horseless age.
Another is an automobile In the
Congo Free State where electricity
and coal are not to be considered as
power generators, and where, there
fore, wood was mustered into ser
vice as the only logical fuel. The
wood burning car weighs ton and
has a maximum speed of twelve
miles an hour. Sheet steel wheels
with heavy pneumatic tires are used.
The fifteen horse power engine is en-
closed in a bullet-proof bonnet, as
the vehicle is to be used in transport
ing troops and is expected to be un-
der fire at times.
A third novelty in the automobile
business Is the arrangement of an
enterprising Yankee for a regular
service of motor omnibuses to the
pyramids.-Exchange.
