GREAT PICTURE
 AT THE ROYAL

Commencing with Sundays matsr nee. the Royal Theatre win present one of the most interesting pictures that has ever been shown here. This picture, entitled The last rites Of the Maine" shows that famous old battleship, whose destruction caused the Spanish-ADIer1Can war, being slowly tcwcd out past Moro Castle 10 her last resting place, covered with as noble a garment of rust and baTnacles as ever chung to a ship that has done her duty.
 When they reached the deep water chosen for her last resting place, the other ships drew away and left the historical old fighting machine to the mercy of the deep. Slowly she sank until her decks were nearly to the waters edge. The sea rolling and II seemed as though every plunge would be her last but each time she rose again to ride the angry waves like thing of life fighting against her in evitable doom
 From the decks of the vessels sur rounding this grand spectacle could Dc heard in hoarse whispers She is go ing" With her flags floating Co the breeze, she tipped slowly forward un til her colorg were .moistened by the sefay .andt ben drooped for1 the tlnal plunge. Slowly the white foam closed in oserz her. decks as she sank to rise no more.

4 CALL FOR HELP.

CALL FOR HELP.
 Russia is suffering from calamity greater than any which, with the ex- ception of war. has overtaken it since the terrible experiences Of 1891. Con .seryatiye estimates show that from 15.OOO.OOO to 2O.OOO,OOO people are at this moment actually starving in the great empire of the czars." Their condition is due to the failure of last summers crops in the provinces of the middle and lower Volga, the Ural provinces, West Siberia, the steppe provinces. and in Turkestan. Many of the peasants, after selling their cattle and horses, have been forced to dispose of their allotments or land and are moving in thousands to the towns. already over-crowded and stricken says the Boston Herald Scurvy and hunger-typhus have brok- en out. with the result, as reported by the Pirosoff society, that there are whole districts with disease in every household. Tn some Dashkir villages, according to one correspondent. the peasants lie down on the floors of their hutts and patiently await death. another writes: The parents pray for the death of their children in or der not to see their sufferings, and they themselves are often ready to put an end to their own torture by suicide" Much has already been done for the relies of the sufferers in Russia itself, but the rich of the em- pire are a comparatively small class. and the less well-to-do have been greatly impoverished by the disturb ances Of the past six years. Recent ly a pathetic word came from a group Of elder peasants who had noticed the absence of assistance from abroad: 'Ia 1891 people came to halp us from everywhere. even from America; where are the kind-hearted people now" The allusion here made to the United States relates partly to Massachusetts. for in 1891, Governor Russell appointed a famine relief relief committee which, presided over by Phillips Brooks, collected and for warIcd to Russia a sum or over s10.OO0
 lt is not long ago that the census
 told of the striklngly rapid growth of Russias population. While good government and a higher degree of economic efficiency would cradle her resources to support many additional
 millions, this famine re-enforccs the
 fundamental lessons taught by Nal thus, as to ;he possibilities of popuia- tons outrunning subsistence. In spite of all Colonel Roosevelt's preachmont against race suicide, overpOpulation remains danger Of the world to-
 day. as it has proved in other coun | tries and other centuries. America is SO favorably situated as 10 Je hap !. pily free for the present from any
 risk on this score. but it is not wise
 on that account to shut our eyes to ! agc-long possibilities such as this
 faraine brings to light.

WAGES INCREASED IN THE WARREN DISTRICT.

This morning when the employees of the producing mining companies reach their places of work they will receive the welcome notice that they are to all share in the increased pros perity of the copper industry Notices have been posted by the companies telling the men of an increase of wages which will be in additional cash per day: to all except the meH who work underground, who will receive. their share in the benefits by a con. cession of one-balf hour of work each day from what they have worked in the past. The new wage scale adopted by the companies will be found elsewhere in the Review this. morning, being the notice posted by ;he Copper Queen, the pioneer com, pany in the district
 The eight hour bill passed by the legislature during its regular session provides that employees may remain underground only eight hours Pre- viously miners have been on their own time going to and from the place where they were employed, as with the printer, carpenter and other eight hour day men and the time for eating lunch was also their own Now the man underground will have a halt hcur for lunch, but will be paid for rom his work, in other words he y.ill be eight hours underground, eat his lunch on his own time as now aud receive the same pay in future for seven and one half hours work as he now rec ceives for eight hours IL is quite likely that the action of the lcgislat, rrc in :he matter of underground men was through lack of knowledge Of present working conditions, an over. sight such as occurred in the matter of the smeltcr men who were de priyed of working more than eight hours in any twenty-four. The sneltermeu at Douglas discovered that this law would prevent them from working more than eight hours on days when they changed shifts which is necessary or d man must lose one day every time he goes from night 10 day shift and vice versa The smeltermcn at Douglas sent one of their number, MT II. Clay Han. kins, 10 Phoenix and when this bad feature of the eight hour law, as af- fecting the smeltermen, was pointed out to fhe legislative leaders who had fathered the measure they saw where d hardship had been put on the men and they readily agreed to rectify the unintentional error It remains to be seen whether the under ground men will be satisfied with the workings of the new law which will cause them to have d shorter work ing day rather than aD advance ol twenty-five cents per day for the same work that they have done in the past
 The Review cOngrstulates the men in the Warren district on the fact o' the increase they are to receive ir wages or the decrease in hours o labor. This comes as a result of thc increase in the price of copper ana from the desire Of the employing companies to share their profits witt the men who are serving them faith fully. This additional wage sill be O assistance to every home; it will snesn gihat { 'iitllei more lu4ury Arlsl be}indulged in or that wife and child ren may haze their needs better sup pied.
