CALL THAMES LONDON RIVER

London.-The Thames that most of
us know, says Ralph D. Paine. in
Scribner's Magazine, is toy river in
a fair country of lawns and meadows
wonderfully green, of gray manor
houses and parks Of ancient oaks,
where the levels between the locks
are crowded with skiffs, punts and
small pleasure steamers and every
nook and blight of shaded shore has
its picnic party. This is astonish-
fngly unlike the Thames that sailors
know. Where it meets the brown tide
which swirls up from the sea, they
call 1t London river, and as such it
was famed in their chanties when
the Yankee packets were storming

before the hanging was to take place.
Ribarich had painted many of his
friends and had drawn a sketch Of
himself dangling at the end of a rope
with his body half concealed through
the falling of the trap.
Rabarich shot and killed Michael No

government to take steps to fight the
vodka fiend. A home for inebriates
will be started and an institute for
anti-alcoholic research win follow.
Over 80 per cent. of the city popula-
ton of Russia become confirmed vod-
ka fiends before they are twenty-five
years old. while 45 per cent. of the
girls fall into the habit between the
ages OF seven and twelve. Recruits
are driven to drink through insufi-

four-fifths of the coal and meat allot-
ted to them are snapped up by officers
and purveyors before 1t reaches the
stores.
Vodka has been a crown monopoly
since the sixteenth century. The car
has now 10000 vodka saloons and
controls 1000 distilleries, on which he
realizes $400.o00.000 a year. While
the government spends only 3h cents
per head on education, each Russian
citizen carries between IS cents and
81 year into the cars saloons. The
vodka spirit is distilled from potatoes
and cereals.

Much of this commerce is hidden
