WINCHESTER GUNS AND
AMMUNITION, THE FIRST
CHOICE OF EXPERIENCED
HUNTERS.

Name over the prominent hunters
and explorers and inquire what guns
and ammunition they use, and you will
find that most Of them use the famous
Winchester guns and Ammunition. Why.
is this? Are such experienced men
actuated by sentiment in buying their
shooting equipment? mol they want
guns and ammunition that they know
can be depended upon and in making
such a choice lies the reason for much
of their success. They select Win
chester guns and, ammunition because
they know they are. absolutely reliable.
Then, too, Winchester guns and am.
munition are made in calibers and sizes
for all kinds Of shooting, which gives
a full range of selection. Another
point about Winchester guns and am
munition is they are moderate in price.
although unsurpassed in material.

ST. PETERSBURG. June lin the

zette. a government publication, there is
declaration by Ozeroff. who is an i'm
portant economist and an elected men,
Der of the Russian council of empire. on
the Jewish question Ozeroff declares
fatty that Russia treats the matter from
an entirely wrong point of view.
He declares that the commercial nobil-
ity of the Jewish race has done a great
deal to make the business development
of the United States the envy of the rest
of the world. According to his state
ment. there are 100000 Jewish CONNER
cial agents on the road in the United
States engaged In opening markets for
the newest kinds of manufacturing.
Russia complains that she cannot ere
ate an active business life outside of her
agriculture. Ozeroff argues this is
largely because of the mistaken rule of
inclosing all Jews in the pale and pre-
venting the community from benefiting
by their commercial quickness and
energy.
Ozeroff's article has raised a great out
cry among the reactionaries. On the
ground that 1t appears in a government
publication, it has attracted serious at
tention and many believe. Prime Min
lister kokovzeff shares some of its views.

LONDON, June IAN incident which
occurred during the recent informal visit
Of the Dowager Queen Alexandra to the
Shakespeare exhibition, organized by
Mrs. George CORVALLIS West is being
discussed at many social gatherings.

to remember him..
Mrs. West. being woman of wisdom,
made no effort to explain that the ini-
tials stood for Elizabeth Regina. not for
Edward Rex.
Queen Alexandra's erratic movements
are causing considerable anxiety, not
only to her own household. but to
many persons outside. She frequently
changes an order half a dozen times a
day and members of her household are
consequently kept busy guessing as TO
which instruction will be final. The
queen mother shows an almost painful
desire to keep before the public, al
though the double bereavement she has
suffered recently in the death of the
King of Denmark and her Cumberland
nephew will prevent her from making
public appearances for awhile.
AS soon as it is known that King George
and Queen Mary are to visit an exhibit
ton or institution. Queen Alexandra
sends word that she is coming the day
before. The officials are. therefore, en-
barrassed, as they cannot possibly tell
the queen mother that the visit of the
sovereign and his consort should come
first.
The king is patient with his mother.
but 1t is well known in court circles that
Queen Mary resentS the odd behavior OF
her mother-in-law.

Petrof. who manages a recreation hall
here. advertised contest for money
prizes among English and French boxers.
The project of st. Petersburg. Gen.
Bratchevsky. at first forbade the show as
a disorderly entertainment. He was over
ruled by Gen. kurloff minister of the i'm
perial police. who ordered that the show
be allowed to proceed.
Petroff went on spending money, but at
the last moment the premier imposed an
absolute veto, and directed that the pre-
fect's first decision should be acted upon.
Petroff then sued Bratchevsky for $1,000
damages. this being money spent in
launching the show and apparently spent
on "squaring'' Minister Kurlofrs depart
ment.
The supreme court rejected his claim
and based its Judgment on statute of
the Empress Catherine, issued 10 years
ago, directing her ministers to see to 1t
that the lower orders should not use their
fists on each other in public or use bad
language. According to the court. the
boxers would constitute the lower orders
and the spectators doubtless would pro-
vide the bad language.
