ST. Petersburg. April 23.-The capture
of Scutari has caused great anxiety and
activity in diplomatic circles here. The
Russian Foreign Minister. Sergius
SaZonOff, was busy all day comforting
with ambassadors and exchanging tele-
grams with the European chanceleries.
II is understood that Russian diplo-
macy prefers to leave the initiative TO
France and Great Britain, and il is be
leved that neither will countenance
any form Of coercion with respect To
Montenegro. Russia herself cannot do
so without straining 10 the breaking
point the patience Of her Slavophile
ruling classes.
In the circumstances, according to
the opinion in well informed quarters.
the only possible course is for the am
bassadOrial conference at London to
reconsider its decision regarding Sou
tart.

Rome April 23.-The "Tribuna. 4"
which is considered the mouthpiece Of
the Foreign Office, says that the inter
national situation brought about by the
capture Of Scutari by the Montenegrins
is grave and exceptionally difficult. II
adds that a collision between the con
hicting interests can only be avoided by
the maintenance Of the unity Of Eu-
rope which must find energy for i'm
mediate and precise action. Any hesi-
tation might compromise European
peace.
When the Pope learned this after
noon through Cardinal Merry del Val
of the fall of Scutari he said: Il hope
this will mark the end Of the war. thus
insuring that the remainder of the
jubilee Of Constantine which Catholics
are celebrating will pass without fur

Curious Examples In the Dome of the
National Capitol.
In the dome of the capitol at Wash
ington there are eight great paintings
carefully designed and executed-by the
artists for the adjournment of the ma
tons greatest building. Yet five of
them are either defective in technique
or in error as to natural or historical
facts. -
One-of the best known pictures is
that in which. Washington is shown
resigning his commission to the Cont :
mental congress. There are two young
girls. almost life size, standing III tue
foreground. They are very pretty
young girls. but one of them has three
hands One left hand rests on the
shoulder of her companions: another
left hand is round her companion S
waist. Doubtless the artist Trumhuil
painted both hands to see which pose
he preferred and then forgot to paint
out the supertiuous hand.
Diagonally across the rotunda is the
painting Of the baptism of PocahOntas.
Sitting in the foreground is Opecan-
canough, the uncle of Pocahontas. he
is barefooted. and the artist has Civ
en- him six toes on his left foot.

Story of How an Ohio City Came TO
Gets Its Name.

Story of How an Ohio City Came TO
Gets Its Name.
About 100 years ago little settle
ment existed at the mouth of the Mau-
NEE river. Its name, Port Lawrence.
was given in honor of the great naval
commander The little town was not
prosperous, and five years later Major
Stck1ey. an enthusiastic but eccentric
man. founded another settle ment right
next to Port Lawrence and called his
village Vistula. Both settlements were
tion. but neither prospered sufficiently.
and one year later it was proposed to
unite the towns.
Everything was easily arranged ex-
cept the name, and here trouble arose.
Major Stickney insisted that the new
community accept the name of his
part, Vistula. but the citizens were not
prepared to have name thrust upon
them by one whose peculiarities led
him to name his two children NO -
and No. 2. This fact in the majors
family life was enough to cause any
suggestion from him to be received
-.1z -
skeptically
The discussions were many and heat
ed when Willard Daniels. a merchant
of Vistula, suggested that they adopt
the name Of Toledo, the ancient capital
of Spain. He explained that the word
originally was "Toledoth.' from the
Hebrew. meaning Mother of People,
and Mr.. Daniels said they ought to be
| able to come together under such a
title of peace Another reason was the
remarks able nearness in ATTITUDES OF
both places. in Spain and in Ohio. the
| actual difference being only little
more than one degree. Further argu-
ments we're that it was pleasant in
sound. easy to pronounce and that nc
city of the western continent as yet
bore the name.
His reasoning prevailed. and the
united towns assumed the name To
ledo. That they remained true to il
is shown in the fact that their first
permanent newspaper was called the
Toledo Blade in recognition of the fac
that Toledo. ssapin. was famed all over
the word for the quality of the SWORD
blades which it produced. - Ladies
