WILL DEVOTE TIME
TO MINING INTERESTS.

Because the large and constantly
increasing business of the American
Gold Placer Mining company, of which
he is secretary, demands practically
his entire time, Captain H. A. Clarke
yesterday disposed of his half interest
in the Cheyenne cigar factory to Sam
G. Wilson. who will continue the bust
ness in partnership with Dwight APP
person, says the Cheyenne Leader.
Mr.. Wilson also purchased from Cap
tain Clarke his interest in the auto
matte piano business, which hereafter
will be conducted by Apperson & Will
son. The American Gold Placer Min
ing company is now installing addi-
tional machinery, and within the next
six weeks it is expected that the COM
pany's dredge, the largest piece of
metal mining machinery in Wyoming,
will be in operation on the corpora

Russian Church Architecture.

Nothing shows more clearly how
far 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 a few weeks ago, is a good
example of the prevailing Russian
style. 1t is not Gothic, nor Greek, nor
Roman, Tor yet Renaissance. The In
fuences 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 non-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 a semi-savage nation into
4 European power by building his new
capital In close contact by sea with
the western world. But the choice o.
the oriental type of architecture for &c
splendid a church as that recently ded
lcated proves that the influence Of
Asia is still strong.
