DR.. Mitchell asked for few min

after DR.. Johnson had seen the Allan

to remind the committee Why he was
present. 1t was because of grave
charges made against him-charges
that he deeply resented. Questioned
by Mr.. Welch, DR.. Mitchell said Gov,

he asked, that it was particularly

Nevertheless. optimism has cooled.
Business men, following the example

are now asking: what will Wilson

the hard realities of dollar making.
The translation of scholarly theories
INTO laws governing the carrying on OF
trade would be fraught, Capitalistic in

moralizing dangers. The Seven Sis

RUSSIAN DUCHESS
LIVES LIFE OF NUN

LONDON. Aug. 25.-The doings of
ROYAL personages who visit this country
are usually Chronicled with patient per-
severance. One royal lady, however,
who is at present in England, has man
aged with almost complete success TO
elude even the publicity of the court
circular. She is the Grand Duchess
Elizabeth of Russia, who is staying
with her sister. Princess Louise of Bat
tenberg, and doubtless the lack of in
formation about her movements is due
to the fact that she is a nun and alb
stains from the usual social rounds.
She is certainly one of the most re-
markable princesses in Europe. Her
husband. the Grand Duke Serge, it
will be remembered was killed by a
bomb while drivir2 to the Kremlin
at Moscow. The Grand Duchess Eliz-
abeth was very deeply attached to
him, and since his death she has lived
in retirement.
She did not finally leave her palace
Urtil her motherless niece. the Grand
Duchess Marie PaVlOvna, to whom she
was a second mother, married; then
she retired 20 q house in a quiet street
of Moscow and in company with sew
eral ladies' began to live the life of
sister of charity
The Grand duchess is one of the most
beautiful women in Europe, but her
face now bears signs OF the ascetic
life she leads. She has introduced IA
new form of convent life into Russia,
modelled on that of the various orders
Of Sisters of Mercy working in this
country.
The Russian nun is supposed to de-
vote herself entirely to ,prayer; she
does not. as a rule undertake charitable
work The sisters of the new order
founded by the grand duchess have
under their care a number OF disabled
soldiers. a home for consumptives. an
orrhanaGe, a dispensary, and free
