Troops to FinIand.

The inundation of Finland with Rus sian troops, and the gradual reduction of Finland to a Russian provence ic now part of the steeled policy of the Tsar
 Finland regained her liberties dur ing the height of the Russian Revolu- ton, when the continuation of the Bobrikoff policy became impossible: Now that the Revolution at home is crushed, the crushing of Finland's new liberties Is inevitable. The old Finnish garrisons are to be with drawn. St. Petersburg has known for nearly two years that the troops at Helsingfors and vyborg are effected by the Finnish propaganda. Ac long as Finland was peaceable 1t was gar risoned with the orst-discipltned regiments, the best regiments being kept at home. Among these iil-dis- ciplined troops the Finish Socialists kept up an active propaganda, which culminated in the mutiny of Sveaborg fortress. Since the crushing of the Russian movement things have got worse. Russian Revolutionists, driv- en from their own country, inundated Finland. and seconded the Finnish movement for the seduction of the Tsar's troops. All these unrelieble regiments will soon be withdrawn, and replaced by soldiers from Poland, Lit tle- Russia. and the Jewish Pale, where most regiments are astively loyal, ow- ing to the promotion. praise and plum der they have gained in theid cam paigns against the Jews and Poles The Tsar Is apparently convinced that they will be no less eager to carry out work of repressing- Finland. Nichol- as II is the most active Of the anti Films. He has never forgiven the .lIu- mtliations of October 1905, when his governor Prince oholensky surrender ed to the Finnish Red Guard. More over, the Finish Socialist movement is developing rapidly; there are eight Socialists in the new Diet, and this spectacle Is . sore in the eyes of the Russian Cabinet, which has succeeded in creating a third Duma from which the Old Socialist Party has been oblit- erated.
 M. stolypin and General Kuropat- kin are strongly anti Finnish. Three months ago. 'Ruropatlxin was summon ga 10 and entrusted with the drawing of scheme for re-garrisoning Fin land. KuropatEin advised that no gar rison in Finland would remain loyal. so long as Finland remained a nest of free thought and revolution. The change in the garrisons was there fore decided on in concert with a scheme for taking away bodily the Finnish Constitution. Stolypin proved this scheme, but insisted that the change should come gradually, and this amendment was adopted.
 Finland Is to have 10000 more sol diers than formerly When these sol- diers have been placed in garrison, the Russian government will open a series of demands upon the Finnish Senate. among which will be the deliv- cry of Russian political refugees, the suppression of Socialism, and a change in the fiscal system. The Russian call oulation is that according to her con- stitutional right Finland will refuse to comply; and this refusal will serve as 6 pretext to begin encroachments upon the Constitution. the Finnish lam guage, and the personal freedom of Finland's people.

FLAG AT AUCTION
AMERICAN BUNTING TO BE soLD
 IN ENGLAND.
It was Captured by the British in Sea Fight and May Come To Museum fin this
 Country.

London, Jan. 1s-The historic Amer ican flag, captured by the British in the great fight between the Shannon and the Chesapeake is to be sold at auction in London at the end of this month. Doubtless the relic will cross the Atlantic to find home in an Amer ican museum.
 The late owner T. c. Middlebrook. was many times invited to visit the United States with the flag, which he was never able to do.
 For many years the flag had been one of the exhibits at a curious pri- vate museum kept by Mir. Middlebroolx. who was proprietor of the Edinburgh Castle Hotel, in the Regents Park dis trict All kinds of relics were accun- ulated thexe-mostly of q warlike de- scription. Included in the collection were relics of Nelson. Cromwell, Gen. eraI Gordon. and pr. Johnson. and one highly -prized object was the bugle that sounded at the famous charge of the Light Brigade at Balaklava.
 The 0hesapeake's flag authenticity is vouched for by a written history of its ownership. 1t came to Mir. Middle brook, from W. Chapman, of Kings ton -on Thames, who in turn had acc quired in from Signot and Mme. Papuc- ci, of Kingston. It came into their possession on the death of Mrs. Grun- dy. the mother of Mime. Papucci. Captain Csrundy, her husband. was the son of Midshipman, Afterwards cap tain,) Grundy, who captured the nag in the famous fight.

 The notorious secret criminal society, the Mafa, denounced these genteel rogues to the police, out of revenge for being refused the cooperation of the graft society.

I decided to. try Peruna. and within four days the cold was broken up. and the cough abated.
 within another week an increase in my usual strength and vitality told me that Peruna was doing all that ft promised. and more.
 T also consider 1t very superior for tired. worn-out mothers, and have ad- vlsed several to try it. and have seen most gratifying results from It's use.

AMUSING ICE SPORT.
English .sd Americans Play o.
 skaf<a.


 Skates.
 Grindelwald. Jan. is.--A new and most amusing fee sport has been in- vented among the English and Ameri- cans here. It Is. however. an amuse- ment that not everybody is likely to care for.
 Two lines are traced along the ice as goals at certain distance from each other. At one goal stand the ladies on skates. On the other a row of eggs are placed. To each egg is attached gentleman player. and his prowess consists in squIrming along the ice on his abdomen, blowing the egg to the otlfer goal. The egg must not be touched with the hand, and the goal. is, therefore, to him who has the strongest wind.
 The ladies try to prevent the eggs crossing their goal by blowing them back with paper fans. The side which gets it's eggs over the opposite goal quickest wins the game. and the spec tacle of plump or elderly gentlemen on all fours blowing eggs along the ice for all they are worth Is very comical one.

A AIlasIne Prlneess.


 The missing Princess Mestchersky is the riddle of St. Petersburg. Hanged. eloped or dead from her own hand are the three solutions offered. Most peo- pie believe that she was strung up without trial for attempting to murder General Herschtlman. Governor General of Moscow.
 Princess Mestchersky before her mar riage, was Julia Leontieff, a Moscow belle, with & rich father and strong revolutionary ideas. At 19 years of age, on the eve of her marriage to a member of the princely house of Golit- in. she ray away with Prince Mestcher- sky, a cousin of the notirious Prince Vladimir, whose reactionary counseIs to the Tzar were once the chief causes of Russia's recent misfortunes.
 Young Prince Mestchersky was a poor student at Riga University. After six months's happiness his bride left him. Rumor said that she had joined the St. Petersburg Maximalists.
 The rumor was true. But outwardly the Princess was living as a medical student in Vassili Ostroff suburb. She kept in constant touch with moder- ate Russian Liberals, and, evidently to keep the police off the real track tutional reformer.
 On December she disappeared. Three days later .a bomb was thrown under the carriage of Governor Hersch- elman. The thrOwer was a young wo- man. She was seized. brought before secret trtbunal-some say there was no trial-and hanged immediately.
 As Princess Mestchersky has never since been seen, most Russians believe that she was the bomb thrower. But the government resolutely refuses to admit or deny the allegation.
 "She was nameless, and has gone to a nameless grave" was the answer giv- an by Herschelman himself to the Princess's father, Leontieff. When the Princesss student-husband arrived from Riga to make enquiries. he was arrested and searched. and afterwards released.
 The Mestchersky mystery is one of many in which that ancient family has been involved. The founder of the fortunes, a Volga Tartar chief. was imnured by his Russian wife in a monastery, and his death was con- cealed for thirty years
 An Eighteenth Century Princess claimed to have been the real concocter of the disposal and as- sassination plot which removed the worthless husband of the great Cath erie.
 Since then all the Mestcherskys have been more or less mad. Politics is their mania. Every Mestcherslky Is either fierce reactionary or an exAreme radi- cal Teh family is torn by political quarreIss which In one case thirty years ago. led to a murder. and in another

 ffoH.

Paris, Jan. 1s.--A gift of Prince Ko- land Bonaparte to the small commune of Galeznna in Corsica. Is causing some trouble. It consists of a piece of land and a fountain. but a condition of the gift imposed by the Prince is that on the fountain shall be placed a bust of Prince Pierre Bonaparte. the donors father, which, of course, Prince Roland will also give.
 The difficulty before the commune with regard to the acceptance of this gift is whether it can be accepted while 1t entails the placing of laudatory Inscription to a private individual with out the consent of the head of the State. The municipality submitted the matter for the approval of the Coun- sell d'Etate, but this august body has returned 1t, presumably considering .t has no jurisdiction. So the matter standa.

Chaplai: Willard IS very proud of let ters received by him from such we'll known statesman as Ex-Governor Edw. Sco6eld, of Wisconsin; the late Hon. John Sherman. Secretary of State under President Mckinley. and the Hon. w. s. Aldreh. late member of Congress from Minnesota,
 In a letter of introduction given to Chaplain Willard before he started on his missionary tour to Japan. Ex-Gover- nor Sco6eld says: ''I am pleased to certify that Rev. Coydon Willard. of Milwaukee.

London. Jan. 1s.--If anything was lacking to show that the Angio-Japan- eae alliance was a mistake, and that the little yellow men are thinking or knifing Great Britain whenever they think 1t to their advantage. the proofs were given by Count Okuma, one or the snrewdest politicians of Japan, in his speech before the Kobe Chamber of Commerce the other day.
 The speech has caused 2 sensation aa here not only among diplomats. but among the whole thinking population of the Kingdom.
 .sBeinz oppressed by the Europeans, the s0e,00O 900 people of India are lock- ing for Japanese protection" the Count said, land I hope the time will come when they will not look in vain, for if the Japanese let the chance slip py and do not go to India, the Indians will be disappointed, and if one will not take gifts from heaven, heaven may send misfortune."
 Nothing could be piainer than these words which might be overlooked if they came from an irresponsible agita- tor, but which are very significant com- ing from such a high source.
 The Counts speech leaves no doubt that Japan intends to fight England in India, first, commercially. unta she shall consider herself strong enough, and then with arms in hand.
 or course, explanations have been forthcoming from the Japanese Am- bassador. but they have been vague and too fun of Oriental politeness to mean anything. far less destroy the distrust of Japan which now fills the hearts of the British people.
 That there will be war between Ja- pan and the United States before many months have passed is the general inn- pression here, and # may be said that although Great Britain has not always been wishing for the success of our cousins across the sea, nothing would please us more than to see Uncle Sam nip the Japanese ambitions in the bud.

Berlin. Jan. 18-The Biblical Land Of Ophfr," where the Queen of Sheba had her famous gold mines, Is the sub . yect or heated controversy between two, eminent German explorers.
 pr. Carl Peters. formerly Governor or German East Africa has declared In lectures that the mines were sit- uated on the zambesi river, while an. other great authority on the geoera- phy of Africa, Baron von Falkenberg, etrenuously opposes this view and places the Land of Ophir in Abyssinia.
 pr. Peters bases his opinions on his own discoveries in East Central Afr. ca, and Baron von Falk enberg relies on the evidence of the Bible as indi> eating the approximate site for the ancient gold mises. He points out that King Solomon, in cooperation with the King of the Phoenicians, fit. ted out colonizing expeditions for Af- rtea the known portion of which was then called "ophir" pr "Ofir" and was regarded as the land of gold.
 This is confirmed today by the pres- ence of vestiges of Phoenieian colonies in many parts of Africa Baron won Falkenberg is Of the opinion that the richest gold deposits then known were in the Habesch, or Sheba. district, the modern Abyssinia.
 The discussion is bound to stimulate German enterprise in the Sudan. where German pioneers have been very active in the past. Dr. Peter's theory, on the other hand. is declared by the baron to have been "set up in the interests of the English" who have great Influence and power in the Zambesi region. Somewhere in that region was laid the scene of Fl. Rider Haggard's TO. nance, "King Solomon's Mines"
