MONKS WANT PANTS
C|erics Go on Big Strike to Get
Trousers.
Economics Of Head Of Russian Monas-
terry Provoke General Rebellion
"Fixed Ideas" of Head Of In

London.--A st. Petersburg dispatch
says that the monks of st. Michael,
near MaikOp, in the Caucasus, are out
on a strike and demand more food,
more leisure and supply of trousers.
They are determined to enforce their
rights, and as long as justice Is de-
MED them services will not be held at
the monastery. The bells are silent,
and the cloisters dark and forsaken.
The trouble has arisen owing to the
possession of fixed ideas" by Father
Ambrosio, who is the head of the
monastery. His ideas do not stop at
the ordinary fulfllment of the monks
obligations to be devout, chaste and
temperate,
He has the impression that devo.
tions are the best substitute for daily
bread, and so the worthy father length
ened prayers and shortened rations.
In the intervals between the devo-
tons and the ever-decreasing meals
the monks are called upon to perform
hard work In the fields. This Is found
very trying. because the Russian mon
astery dweller generally possesses q
human leaning toward an abundance
of food and drink and extended leisure

he occasionally contrives to find lit
tie time for the devotiOns that make
him a complete monk.
But a denial even worse than those
already described was inflicted upon
the long-suffering monk Of st. Mich
ael. The supreme shock came
when Father Ambrosio refused to sup
ply trousers to the jewellers within the
convent walls. The ecclesiastical die
tator ruled that those articles OF ap-
parel were a luxury. The latest cur
tailment caused much discomfort, and

When Country Girls Learn

Perhaps the greatest movement in
the cause Of humanity ever undertaken
is the white slave" investigation now
being carried on in Chicago, Los An
geles and other cities of the United
States. This is purely a Progressive
movement, advocated in the platform
Of the Progressive party, and whether
or not the Bull Moosers' ever get
into power they will accomplish much
good in the way of bringing about
such needed reforms as the reduction
OF the white slave traffic to a minimum.
AS the investigation shows, many oil
the men connected with the business
Of leading girls to life of shame are
we'll educated and in some cases are
wealthy. A large percentage Of the
victims are girls from the country, who,
rather than remain at home and live
the simple life, harken to the call of
the city with its swell amusement
places, cafes, parks, etc. Once the
simple maiden reaches the metropolis,
she meets a well-dressed, smooth-ton-
gued young gentleman" who is very
kind to her and is willing to show her
the city. She does not intend to do
wrong, but once in the clutches of the
human vulture, she cannot escape.
From a virtuous country girl she be-
comes denizen OF the underworld.
This part of the investigation is a
lesson that speaks volumes. 1t shows
that the country girl too often longs
for the city; that she sacrifices the old
fashioned home and the old-fashioned
folks, and the country sweetheart with
his simple ways for the bright lights,
the slick chap and the gay life Of the
city. In other words, the girl from
the small town or from the farm who
believes that she can do better in the
large city labors under delusion that
in the end is often the cause of hel
downfall.
So soon as the country girl is made
to realize that the city life with its
many snarls compares very poorly with
the pure, wholesome life of the rural
district, just so soon will the damnable
white slave traffic lose good per cent.

A council of Indians living on the
Tulalip Reservation. on WILDLY Island,
Puget Sound, has asked the govern
ment to effect the sale of between
100, 100000 and 200, 100000 feet of
standing timber on the reservation,
having a market value ranging from
$500, 900 to 100000. This is de-
sired sold for the benefit OF allotment
owners. The Indians said they are
tired of owning property and being
unable to market it advantageously.
The petition, signed by 38 of the In
