Russia has also a most elaborate sys-
tenn Of training its policemen, and some
time ago there was opened at st. p
tersburg a fully equipped policemans
college, designed to train men in Ill
the various duties of an officer of the
law. At this college policemen are
made familiar with the tools used by
criminals, their teachers holding that
they can not become proficient police
men in any other way.
The Russian policeman attends lee
lures at which burglars methods and
instruments are explained so that he
can checkmate them, while he has the
advantage of the ordinary criminal
museum which is attached to the col
lege. There every appurtenance known
to the breaker of the law must be ex-
perimented with until it's every use is
thoroughly understood.

have a tulle veil edged with lace, the
lace being sewn fat on to the edge. The
veil is arranged over the head like a
small Quaker bonnet, and a tiny wreath
of orange flower buds is placed about
it. Wells are all worn off the face

A Complicated System.

The Russian police system is en-
tremely complicated, for it practically
gives Russia an assistant policeman in
every house in St Petersburg.
The landlord has a private porter or
acts as a porter himself. \ porter has
authority to make an arrest. and he is
obliged 70 rush from the house to the
street at the sound of police whistle.
As there is policeman stationed at

may be said to be the most arduous Of
any, for. i'm addition to the lessons ir
the police school. he is instructed in the
most up-to-dste methods of dealing
with criminals
one Of the methods Of instruction is
like that used by enthusiastic American
footbalIers practicing. \ heavy sand
bag on a rope is set swinging, and the
policeman has to run to meet it as il
swings toward him and stop it dead.
This is practice in dealing with the
rush of a crowd. He is also instructed
in a hundred and one different matters
which make it necessary for him to al
ways have his wits about him, for it
must be understood that he has null
titude of duties when compared with
the police of other countries
As one visitor to Berlin put It, The
police have nose in almost every
thing. When you go to Berlin you are
reported to the police, and no stranger
can get in or out OF the country, and no
visitor can come or go without leaving
a record of his visit"

Governor Ellyson came in for "a very
large part of the criticism for even
consenting to consider the question of

The return OF the Governor to the
State and city put an end to any eff
forts along this line.
Among the letters that reached tho

was one containing a statement made
