ST. PETERSBURG, Feb. S.-Despite
the efforts that are made to prevent
the publication of alarmist reports
concerning the Czarina's real condi-
ton, sad news filters through to the
people from court circles. Both men
tai and physical ills are believed to be
affecting Her Majesty, who is describ-
ed as 1.-THE wreck of her former self"
Although the official statement is
made that the Czarina's real malady is
a stubborn attack of influenza, follow
ing a weakening attempt at "bant-
ing" the popular information is that
the Czarina is in a state Of great ner-
vous depression, almost amounting to
melancholia. She has lost all interest
in the outside world and has ceased to
take any pride in her personal appear
ance.
The Czarina refuses to move from
st. Petersburg, in obedience to the
strong advice of her medical attend
ants. The court physicians are ex-
tremely disquieted by her obstinacy,

THE MILITIA.

There ought to be more encourage

on the other hand, the nation owes it

to give every possible aid to the gem

for they realize that something must
be done to get her away from the de-
pressing atmosphere of the court to
some sunny retreat in the South
Both the Gar and Czarina have
largely abandoned the freedom Of
movement in which they formerly in
dulged, disregarding to a great extent
the police precautions for their safety.
The Car frequently rode out from
Tsarkoe Selo beyond the protection
zone, chatted with peasants by the
road side, and so on. Similarly the
Czarina delighted to escape from Off
cial supervision occasionally and to
go out shopping like an ordinary wo-
man. But in her present low state of
health and spirits she has given up
these outings. In their place the
Czarina takes a mild interest in physi-
cal matters and has attended the sean
ces at court promoted by the Grand
Duchess Melissa, wife of the Cars
cousin, the Grand Duke Peter Nicolaie-
witch.

FRIDAY, DECEMBER 25, 1908.

The State of New York has appro-
priated fifty millions of dollars for
improvement of roads. Over three
hundred miles of perfect road were
made in 1907 and $40 miles during
the present year. For many years
the state has urged the fight for good
roads, but the victory has been won,
the undertaking well begun. That
the investment will prove profitable
none can doubt. Sooner or later the
other states of the union will follow
the example of New York and it is
probably that some living today will
see the time when this country Will
be checkered with roads as perfect
as those in England, France and Ger
-
many.

Men Do Not "Naa."

Men as husbands are not so faithful
as women; they are not so tender;
they do not forgive, as women do con-
duct which disgraces them publicly;
they are not so patient with physical
pain; but they have a shining virtue
they do not nag!
1t is not like a man to thresh out
an old injury after every grain of cir.
cumstance has been extracted and the
fail raises nothing but dust. Nor is II
like a man to tumble into the traps
of his own logic and rescue himself by
a burst of temper or a flood of tears.
Men fly into passions over trifies just
about as much as women, and often
more violently. Their language, for in.
stance, in regard to overdone beef
steak frequently is not fit for lady's
ears. And it seems irrational to be
upset, as men are, by the misbehavior
of collar buttons. Still, 1t may be ad,
mitted that while they fly into pas.
sions they do not fly into the same
passions again and again. And when
they forgive they forgive; they do not
simply take the offense away and put
1t in. cold storage.-Octave Thanet in
Harper's Bazaar.

and inashlnch as there are only four
others, England, France, Germany
and Japan, let us hope we may never
know whether our ships are as good
as theirs or not. Meanwhile, the con-
troversy cannot but be helpful. Ad-
miral Evans was not the inventor of
his soubriquet, Fighting Bob" and
he is no more of fighter than hun
di eds of other naval officers in the
service His naval education, ante
dating the war and continued in alb
solete hulks, would scarcely entitle
his Judgment to the weight of the
judgment of those officers who have
been educated in the recent, improv-
ed curriculum of the Naval Academy
and have supplemented this educa-
tion by study of recent naval archi-
lecture in England, France and Ger
many. There comes a time in the
life of every man and every fighter
when he is disposed to cling TO old
things--old friends, old ships, old
times-but the history of progress
shows a continuous elimination of
the old and an adoption of the i'm
proved and new.

STILL RETAINED HIS BELIEF
Magistrate Clearly Had No High opin
ion of Supreme Court

Col. Blank, police magistrate of
Toronto, has local reputation for dis.
pensing justice in his equity mill with
no especial regard for the intricacies
of the law. The colonel is highly re.
spected in the community. Every man
gets equal and exact justice in his
court. Sometimes the lawyers appeal
from his decisions, claiming they are
not based on the law as it stands on
the books. The defense in a case of
some moment appealed once, and kept
on appealing until the court of last re-
sort was reached.
The colonel came into his office one
morning and was met by legal
friend.
Good morning, colonel" said the
friend, 81 must congratulate your lord
ship this morning"
What is the provocation?'
Haven't you seen the morning pa,
pers? The supreme court has con-
firmed your judgment in the case of
So-and-So."
Well" the colonel replied, as he
drew off his gloves, II still believe I'm
right"

Sixtieth Congress. He has instruct
ed the Attorney General to intro
duce proceedings against Joseph
Pulitzer, the editor of the New York

crookedness in the Panama Canal
transaction never had the shadow of

and the country with him, are justly
indignant. If the effect of the eX-
posure of the World and Sun in New
York, the News in Indianapolis and
other papers, shall produce greater
circumspection in American journal
ism, the incident and its lesson need
not be regretted.

ACTED UPON BY SUGGESTION
That Thought May Produce Blister on
Hand, Is Medical Fact.

1t is not generally known that
thought may produce a blister on the
hand or an ulcer on the foot, as well
as many other actual physical
changes in ones organism which are
little short of miraculous. have no
doubt that st. Francis of Assist re-
ceived the stigmata of the crucifiXion
on his hands and feet as historically
described. 1 have no doubt, because
its possibility has been put to the
proof within the past few years, and
by friend Of mine whom l will name,
Prof. Kraft Ebing of Vienna told a
young woman he would place a small
fly plaster upon her which would pro-
duce a blister in a few hours. He
actually only put a postage stamp
upon the skin, without her knowledge,
and covered it over so securely with
bandages that she could not interfere
with it. The blister appeared as .sug-
gested.-Frederick Peterson, M. D., in

out in a magazine article claiming
that our battleships are the best in

late magazine article in which he
quoted extensively President Roose-
velt's words in language by no means
as optimistic as that of Fighting
Bob" The President openly sides
with the younger officers of the Navy
who believe that millions have been
wasted in the construction of small
and useless ships and in the mis-con-
struction, partial at least, of the larg-

cheney of the American Navy may
possibly never be determined except

The yearly report of Mr.. Capers,
the Commissioner of the Internal
Revenue Bureau, shows a decline of
forty millions of gallons in the dis,
tillation of grain spirits, chiefly whis.
ky He explains that the prohibi.
tion movement, the high price OF
grain and the compact-agreement
among distillers to limit the quantity
of distilled liquors, are the cause OF
this decrease Among the. hopeful
indications of the time, there is none
more inspiring than the decrease in
the use of strong drink and millions
Of people are anxiously anticipating
the statistics of the future with the
hope that the coming years may show
an accelerated disuse of this potent
source of misery and crime. 1t is
calculated that the Government has
lost eighteen millions of dollars dur
ing the past year in the falling off
of the whiskey tax, but the gain, as
will be admitted by all rejecting
people, is immeasurably greater than
the loss in money.
