It is difficult to imagine how the Russian Empire as it now (19O0), from Poland to eastern-most Siberia, could be kept together and governed by any, thing else than an autocratic central izatlon of power, constantly self asserting and directing central author ity with a tremendous organization of force behind it. This rigid central despotism cannot fail to create oppres- siye abuses in the government of the verious territories and diverse Qopula- tlons composing the empire. When this burden of oppression becomes too galling, efforts, raw, rude, more l1r less inarticulate and confused, will be made in quest of relief, with a slim chance of success. Discomfort with the memorable autocracy will spread and seize upon the superior intelli- gence of the country, which will be in- spired with a restless ambition to have a share in the government.
 At the moment when the autocrat yields to the demands of that popular intelligence, and assents to constitu- tional limitations of his power. or to anything that will give an authoritive. official voice to the people, the real rev. olutinoary crisis will begin. The pop ular discontent will not be appeased, but will be sharpened by the conces- sion. All the social forces will then be thrown into spasmodic commmotion; and when those forces in their native wildness break through their tradit- ional restraint, the world may have to witness a spectacle of revolutionary chaos without example in history. The chaos may ultimately bring forth pew conceptions of freedom, right and jus tice, new forms of organized society new developments of civilization. But what the sweep of those volcanic dis turbances will be and what their anal outcome is a mystery baffling the imagnation- a mystery that can be approached only with awe and dread Carl schurz, in McClure's Magazine

SICKNESS INTERPRETERS WITH MU-

Due to the illness of Miss Treat and Dr, Lawton, of New Hacen, soprano and tenor, respectively, in the Congre- gational church quartet, Ansonia, the singing of the cantata, "The Story of Bethlehem" which was to have conn posed the afternoon service at the church, yesterday had to be omitted. Mrs. Brown and Ernest Robinson, of New Haven, substituted in the morn ing, and the music was of high order. There is some possibility that the can tata will be sung at some future date, as many in the church are anxious to hear it.

BANKER BUYS WAITER A RANCH.
David n. Moffat Will Install OLD
Friend in Home Near Him.

Denver, Col.-David H. Moffat, mill
lionaire banker and railroad builder OF
Colorado, who boasts as his friend
Thomas Gay, head waiter of the Fifth
Avenue hotel, New York. desires his
friend to live near him, and as the
first step in that direction has pur-
chased ranch of 1853 acres in Routt
county, near Steamboat Springs,
which he is having put in shape be-
fore presenting it to Gay. Mr. Moffat
bought the rauch for $4,000. He will
spend goodly portion of his time on
the ranch with his old friend. The
friendship of the two men has inter-
fered with Moffats business several
times. but when a man objected to
the waiter the banker wanted nothing
to do with him. Once a Denver man
took an eastern capitalist to Mr.. Mof-
fats room in the hotel to talk over a
business deal involving s250,000. They
found Moffat playing poker with the
waiter. They were introduced to him
as they would have been to any other
guest and the deal fell through on
account Of the attitude of the eastern
man when waiter was introduced to
him as social equal.
