THE SITUATION IN RUSSIA.

Practically all the Russian prisoners
of war have left Japan. The last trans
port was scheduled to leave Japan Feb
ruary 20.
The battleship C~zarevitch, one Of
those the japanese didn't get, has ar
rived at Libau from the far east.
There is said to be evidence that a
bomb explosion which occurred at Viii
ma, February IL, was part of a general
plot, with qualifications throughout the
empire, aimed at preventing of the mod
crate parties participating in the cleo
ticn for the assembly.
Gen. Kaulbars, governor general of
Odessa, has issued a proclamation de-
claring that every one attempting to
kill or killing an official by explosives,
arms, or otherwise, or who is found in
possession of deadly implements, will be
summarily executed without inquiry or

THREE BLOWN TO PIECES
Terrible Accident At the Button-
wood Mine About Two Miles
From Wilkesbarre, Pa.

Wilkesbarre, Pa, Feb. 19.-Four men
were killed by an explosion that oc-
CURED Sunday morning in the Button
wood mine, operated by the Parish Coal
Co., about two miles from this city.
The explosion occurred in a small
structure known as a timberman's
shanty located along the gangway q
short distance from the foot Of the
shaft. In this shanty was stored q
lot of giant powder. A number of
company hands had been at work dur
ing the night in the mine, and 1t Is
thought they went to the shanty to
get warm and eat their lunch. The
supposition Is that the heat from the
steam pipes ignited the powder and ex-
ploded 1t.
Three Of the men were blown to
pieces.

high, was constructed by the windows.

unobstructed view of it. The platform
was ~carpeted in green, of handsome de-

with artistic carelessness, an elegant
oriental rug, designed in curious and
intricate figures. In colors, red pre-
dominated. Banked back of the plat

palms, selected for the beauty and
c~loseness of their leaves. This group
of palms was fringed at the base with
Astilbe Japonica. Forming a back
ground were dracena sanderii, of green

January brings two American poets
birthdays for the club luncheon series
that of Bayard Taylor, who was born al
Kennett Square. Pa. January II. 1S25,
ana OF Edgar Allan Poe, whose birth
day anniversary comes later in the
month.
Bayard Taylor's reputation as the
great American traveller makes a
change possible in the arrangement OF
the program and detail for this one poet
luncheon at least. From his first great
journey to Europe made in the midsle
forties. to his death IN Berlin in 1878.
Bayard Taylor gave 10 the world series
OF travel volumes and stories which are
fascinating in style and so varied in
scope and experiences that the sophisti-
Gated and untraveled have been won't TO
dub him an American Munchausen. TAX
ing the truth and the untTuth OF the
volumes, however. they form q series so
interesting that his ability as a poet and
novelist Is overshadowed by his fame
as a traveller. For this luncheon nothing
could be more appropriate than "a Bay
ard Taylor luncheon OF the nations"
Representative of his book on "a
Journey to Central Africa. the Lands
of the Saracen." have an African table
His Visit 90 India, China and Japan"
makes an Oriental table very appro-
pirate and his Summer Pictures of
Sweden, Denmark and Lapland" will
make a pretty Scandinavian table. An
American table should be added and
possibly a European table. IL an extra
one is needed, but the countries chosen
will give oddity of entertainment which
the English. French and Italian tables
have lost through much use.
For the toasts choose from each table
a speaker TO give a bit of experience
of travel-personaL II pOssible-from a
country the table represents. Or a de-
scriptive sketch from the work of
Taylor which have been mentioned may
be made interesting. At the close of
the service or between courses a short
program of vocal or instrumental music
representative OF the various countries
should be given.
Every course should. in it's turn, be
representative of the countries-lixe- e
wise. For instance, the famous Indian
soup-Mulla gataWney - may open the
luncheon, or, to be more strictly proper
