A Fortified Monastery.

From Harper's Weekly.
The most strongly fortified
monastery in the world is at
So'oyetsk, in Archangel, Russia.
This monastery is enclosed on
every side by a wall of granite
boulders, which measures nearly
a mile in circumference. The
monastery itself is very strongly
fortified, being supported by
round and square towers about
thirty feet in height, with walls
twenty feet in thickness.
The monastery in reality con

the repositories of many valuable
statues and also of precious
stones. Upon the walls are
i'ounJed huge guns, which IN the
time Of the Crimean War were
directed against the British
White Sea Squadron. The monks
who inhabited the monastery
at that time marched in process
sion on the granite walls while
the shells were flying over their
heads to indicate what little fear
they had of an attack by the
British fleet.
Thousands Of pilgrims come
annually to Solovetsk from var
ious parts of Russia to view
the churches and the relics. They
are conveyed in steamers com
handed and manned solely by
the monks.

CIGARETTE PAPER
Material used in Manufacture
Cleaning and Bleaching Pro-

0N@NSR
From the Scientific American.
Of the great army of cigarette
smokers there is probably not
more than one in a hundred who
knows that rice paper, in which
the tobacco is wrapped, has
nothing to do with rice but is
made from the membranes of
the breadfruit tree or more COM
monty of fine new trimmings of
flax and hemp.
So light is this paper that 800
of the tiny sheets go to make
an ounce. They are perfectly
commbustible and give off the
minimum of smoke. Before be-
ing rolled with tobacco they are
analysed to prove that they
are free from all d%eleterious In
gradients and that they contain
nothing but the purest paper fl
.bre. Only new material-flaz
and hemp trimmings-is used,
and these are thoroughly puri-
fled.

The visiting-C Card.

From Harper's Weekly.
Vlsltlng-cards are held to have
originated with the Chinese, who
from the earliest times, have OBJ
served the greatest ceremony in
their use.
Cards play an important role
in Chinese courtships. When a
Chinese young man desires to
marry, his parents communicate
the fact to a professional match
maker, who at once runs over
IN his mind the eligible young
women of his acquaintance, and
selects the one he thinks will
make the most fitting bride. He
or, as sometimes is the case, she
will then call upon the young
Woman's parents, armed with
the prospective bridegrOOm's card
Whereon are written his ancestral
history, names and the date of
his birth. If the suit proves ac-
ceptable, the brides card is
sent in return; and if the prop
becies for the wedding are good,
the particulars of the engage
ment are written on two large red
cards, and sent to the friends of
each family.
The royal parsonage of today
have their yisiting-cards lust as
have their subjects, but IN some
cases they differ widely in the
matter Of size. The German
Emperor, for instance, believes
IN being sufficiently represented
even on his card. No ordinary
sized piece of pasteboard will
suffice for Wilhelm. His cards
are the largest in Europe, and
almost vie with those used by
the mandarins of China. They
measure no less than six inches
in length and four in width. On
the upper line is the single
word Wilhelm, and below are
the words "Deutscher Kaiser, "
and "Konig Won Preussen." The
words are printed in large, fat
letters in German script. The
Emperor does not, of course,
carry these imposing sheets of
pasteboard himself.
The other ~soNerigns of Europe
are content with more modest
Wsiting-cards, with the words up
On them in Latin script. Among
the more modest in size are those
of the Emperor of Austria-H Hun
gary and the King of Spain.

except one of general obstruct-
ions to anything the Democrats
may suggest.
The Republicans are not even
harmonious on Mr.. Mann policy
of obstruction. Progressive re-
publicAls like William Nent Of
California, are declaring they
were not elected to waste time
in blocking Legislation or in
%badgering any other party. He
was elected to serve the public
interest, he declares, and he
intends to do this.
The majority of the republi-
cans, however, do nothing more
than grumble and oppose, appar-
emily incapable of understanding
that the public cannot be de-
,eived by unintelligent partisan
action, which has no higher
purpose than that of public de-
ception in the interest of a pol
itical organization already in
public disfavOr.
HERE IS INCONSISTENCY.
Most of the Republican mem
bers Of the House of Representa-
tives who voted against recipro-
city sought to defend their votes
hy declaring the measure would
injure the farmers, and that as
they prided themselves upon be-
ing friends of the farmers at
every turn in the road, they
could not vote for the recipro-
city bill.
Then came the farmers free
list bill, which untaxed agricul-
tural implements and nearly ev-
cry thing the farmer uses. Here
was a golden opportunity for all
friends of the farmer.
But, 10 and behold, when it
came to voting, a panic struck
the ranks of the minority and
100 Republicans who had so
loudly proclaimed their affection
for the farmer, turned their
backs squarely upon him and
voted against the farmers free
list bill.
A SIGN OF THE TIMES.
A remarkable vote for the
United States senate was record
ed when the resolution to bring
about the direct election of sen.
atOrS was made the unfinished
business and thereby given pre-
cedence over all other measures
Thus a vote on the proposition
is at last assured. Sixty-fivC
senators voted on the side OF
the general proposition to five
against. Every Democrat and
every progressive republican pres
ent voted in the Affirmative. This
does not mean that the fight
over direct elections has been
won outright. But it does
mean that the great majority
of the tory senators have LEARN
ed hat they cannot perSistently
resist public sentiment and hope
to retain their seats. No one
believes that the tory senators
who voted with the progrresSives
really wanted to vote as they
did. They were prompted solely
by a realization hat the public
demands a change in the method
OF electing senators, and that
further defiance of the public
would but hasten effective pub
lie resentment.

Our Washington Letter.
BY Tavenner.

In six weeks the Democratic
House of Representatives has
passed more progressive and anti
trust legislation than the Repub-
licans passed in fourteen years
administration of that branch of
Congress.
The achievement up-tO-date
Includes the passage of a bill
providing for the publicity of
campaign contributions before
instead of after elections; the
election of United States sena-
tors by direct vote of the peo-
pie; reciprocity with Canada and
the farmers free list bill, with
other similar legislation to fol-
low promptly.
Agitation for much of this
legislation has been going on
for years. The republicans
heard the demand of the people
for relief, but could not enact
such legislation as has been
passed by the Democratic House
because they had for years been
receiving enormous campaign
contributions from the tariff
trusts and other interests which
are opposed to progressive leg
islatiOn of the character passed
by the Democrats.
The Republicans have not
only been obliged not to inter
fere with the monOpolieS and
profits of the tariff trusts, but
because of having accepted cam
paign funds from the great cor
pOrations they have been pract-
ically compelled to extend to
them immunity from investiga-
ton and prosecution.
More than a score of resolu-
tons providing for the investiga-
ton of the steel trust, the sugar
trust and the other big industrial
combines were introduced in ev-
cry session of Congress while
the Republicans were in power.
These resolutions, one and all,
were referred to committees that
had been especially packed by
Speaker Cannon with men friend
ly to special privilege, with the
result that all such resolutions
died in committee.
Now it is different. For the
first time since the trust Ques-
ton has been acute, the House
of Representatives has an n
ti-trust majority.
The result is that the big
committees are manned by men
who are free to go ahead and
investigate, and if the evidence
warrants, to take the proper
steps toward bringing about
the prosecution of illegal com
binatiOns in existence in re,
Straint of trade.
For the first time in a good
many years the Capitol of the
United States will be the scene
of honest Investigations of the
big industrial trusts.
Heretofore it has been impOs-
sible for the government to con-
troll the trusts because the trusts
controlled the government. Now
it is to be determined whether
the government of the people
for special privilege shall occupy
the saddle.
WHAT FREE LIST BILL IS.
Upon close view the farmers
free list bill becomes a mighty
interesting measure. It INTAKES
many articles the farmers use,
but it mean about as much to
all o-her consumers. 1t puts 100
articles of common use on the
free list and it is estimated that
it viii save the buying public
some 5000, 0OO, 900. The measure
won't hit the revenues hard,
either. The tariff is nearly pro

HARD AGAINST 1T.

Still dismayed at the reverses
sustained in the last election dis
couraged overlook for the future,
and realizing that they can take
no stand against the progressive
Democratic legislation that will
be backed up by popular senti-
ment, the Republican minority
in the House Of Representatives
presents a sorry spectacle.
Minority Leader Mann seems
to be following no set policy,

the state department that an agree
ment satisfactory To the Vacuum OH
tnmpanX-- which iS-a- suhAidiarY-ef
the Standard oil COMPANY has been
signed by the Hungarian minister OF
finance.
All repressiVc measures are to be
removed, 1t is promised. within eight
days. The agreement. however. Is
subject to the approval < the en-
tire Hungarian cabinet
Because the American oil refine
ries were more efficient than those
in use by the Hungarian producers
the latter found themselves una BILE
to compete with the Vacuum Oil
Company. The government laid re-
strictions upon the American corpo-
ration, which made 1t almost impos-
sible for the latter to do business.
There is little doubt at the state de-
partment but that the Hungarian cab
met will agree to the removal OF

WITH BRIDGE FREE
MORE GO ACROSS

Lower Hull street presents busy
appearance since the Mayo bridge
has been converted into free thor
oughfare across James river. Teams
from both sides OF the river are usin>
the structure very much more freely
than when a toll was assessed on
both vehicles and pedestrians. While
the travel Is very much heavier than
during the past when 1t was a pay
institution, IT IS thought that there
are still many people who are not
aware that the cid bridge has been
purchased by the city of Richmond
and the dollhouse eliminated.
Tt Is noticeable that country peo-
pie continue to drive over the Free
bridge. when 1t would he very much
nearer 10 cross the river by the old
Mayo bridge route, as most of the ru-
ralites have business in the downtown
section where the tobacco ware
houses are located.
The use of the Mayo bridge has
greatly reduced the congestion on the
