Russian Church Architecture.

Nothing shows more clearly how
Tar from the main stream Of Europe
the currents of Russian life have
flowed than the architecture of the
Russian churches. The new church
Of the Redeemer, erected in memory
of the grandfather of the present car,
which was dedicated by the car in st.
Petersburg few weeks ago, is good
example of the prevailing Russian
style. 1t Is not Gothic, nor Greek, nor
Roman, nor yet Renaissance. The in
huences which have fixed the Russian
church architecture are Asiatic rather
than European, remarks the Youths
Companion. The predominating arches
are Indian rather than Roman, and
the domes, with their bullying sides,
come from Asia and the none Christian
races. Russia itself was in closer re-
lations with Asia than with Europe
till Peter the Great turned the face of
the empire westward and began the
recreating of semi-savage nation into
q European power by building his new
capital in close contact by sea with
the western world. But the choice Of
the oriental type of architecture for so
splendid church as that recently ded-
icated proves that the influence of
Asia is still strong.

No Work. No Food for Indians.

Indian Commissioner Leupp at.
tributes the little trouble among the
Utes to the fact that the Indians will
not work and thus gain the compen.
sation and the food which will support
them and their families. Speaking of
the policy OF the Indian Office, Com
missioner Leupp says: This Office be-
lieves in applying the same rule that
Is applied to poor and ignorant men Of
any race. We believe In finding work
for them and then in permitting them
to go hungry If they will not accept
the opportunity to make a living" He
adds that 1t is the practice Of his de-
partment of the government to treat
the Indians kindly but to Insist that
they shall cease to be paupers when
there is work at which they can earn
good wages practically at their doors"
Can anyone point out anything unfair
or unreasonable in that principle?

MANY DUNKARDs IN TOWN
Stop Over En- Route TO Eastern
Homes. More Could Have
stopped.

This morning a large party OF
Dunkards. consisting of both men
and women, en- route to their homes
in the east from the great national
meeting of Dunkards in California
stopped over in Grand Junction for
a day's-sight seeing. They were tax
en- out for drives through the coun-
trv by several of the real estate men.
They were delighted with what they
saw. If suitable advertising matter
had been distributed among the
Dunkards as they passed through the
city en- route to California. there is no
question but what great number
of them would have stopped over
in Grand Junction on the return trip
and as a result many excellent citi-
zens might have been secured in this
manner As it was not piece of ad-
vertising matter was distributed on
the Dunkard special train. They like
the Shriners passed through the city
with hardly any effort being made to
call their attention to Grand Junction
and the Grand valley.
The party who stopped over in the
city today is made up of prosperous
looking people. AS is well known
there are no better citizens in the
country than the Dunkards. Mesa
county numbers many among her res
idents and no more substantial law
abiding or prosperous people live in
the county.

YOUNG WOMAN PASSES AWAY

Yesterday afternoon at about four
o'clock, Mrs lola Wright, wife of
Mont Wright. a well known ranch
man residing in the West creek coun-
try of the Unaweep. died in this city.
She suffered from blood poisoning.
For some time the condition of the
young woman had been very critical
and last Saturday she was brought
from the home on West creek to this
city so that she might have better
medical attention. However, she con-
tinued to fail rapidly and yesterday
afternoon the end came.
The deceased was about "a years
of age. She was united in marriage
to Mr. Wright only a few months ago
and the bereaved husband has the
sympathy of many friends.
Cosgrove and Slough have charge
of the remains.
No funeral arrangements have
been made awaiting word from the
mother of the deceased who left her
home in Illinois probably yesterday
for Grand Junction in answer to a
telegram notifying her that her dau-
gh ter could not live. Shortly after
fhis first telegram was sent Mrs.
Wright died and a message announc-
ing her death and asking for in
structions was sent to the mother.
but no answer has yet been received
to the last telegram and it is believed
the mother had already started for
Grand junction. She is expected to
reach here tomorrow night.
