ment, and partly with a vested and very remunerative interest of the bu- reaucracy. How little the protection of the peasants weighs with the gov ernment in this question is shown by the history of the very liquor dealing with which you reproach the Jews. Before the state monopoly was insti- tuted-when, for the purpose Of the excise, the Jews were encouraged to enter and extend the liquor trade it was always found that there was less drunkenness in the districts to in those from which they were eR- cluded.
 Since liquor selling has become a. state monopoly. from which Jews are rigid1y excluded, the drunkenness and consequent demora1ization and pov- erty of the peasantry have reached alarming proportions. Only the other day the czar found it necessary to dismiss a prime minister on this ac- count alone and to issue a strongly worded rescript denouncing the vodka scourge as inflicted on the peasantry not by the Jews, but by his own gov ernment.
 The replies to this seemingly ur1an- | swerab1e document are curious.

RUssIA's ANT4-JEw POLICY.
Campaign in Its Support in England
 Conditions in the Pale.
CLondon Letter in The New York

Times.)
 Although it only requires a pogrom or Kief trial to arouse the sympathy of the British public to the deplorable state of the Jew in Russia, and a cor responding attack by the press upon the Russian institution, lacking these sensational contingencies the whole tone of many of the more important London papers is distinctly pro- Rus sian.
 This may be explained by three req sons-the Anglo-Russian entente, the attempt of British manufacturers to control the Russian market. and the growing amount of British capital in~ vested in Russian enterprises. But as it is a question of relationship, not between the English and the Russian people, but between the English peo- pie and the Russian government, the

LOOKING AT A PHOTOGRAPH.
Better Effects Are Obtained When Only
One Eve Is Used.

Photographs should be looked at
with only one eye to appear best. says
II. w. NARROW in an article on How
to Look at Photograph in the Photo
Era.
"Most photographs, particularly small
ones of landscapes, street scenes and
interiors. fail TO produce their full ef-
feet or TO be estimated at their true
value because they are not looked at
in the most effective way" the author
says. take as an example print re-
sulting from camera with five inch
focus lens. Such a print is usually
looked at with both eyes open and
held at distance OF twelve inches o;
more. Now camera is essentially
one eyed instrument, or at any rate,
it views the object to be reproduced
from single point. the optical center
Of the lens. The object must be looked
at. therefore, with one eye only and
from point corresponding as nearly
as possible to the optical center of the
lens IL its characteristics as 1t is to be
reproduced in the camera are TO be ap-
preciated.
"Let 1t be remembered that when a
print is looked at with both eyes open
binocular vision emphasizes the fiat
ness OF the card, and this tends to of
set the illusion OF greater or less dis
lance produced by the light and shade
and perspective or the print. BY using
one eye the impression Of fiatness is
greatly diminished. IL at the same
time the eye be placed at the right
distance everything is seen under its
natural angle or perspective, and the
picture unfolds itself, the different OBJ
iects receding to their proper relative
distances, making details very obvious
which may be unnoticed IL looked at
in the ordinary way.
"As sort Of corollary to the above
use one eye alone to decide whether
landscape or other scene is worth tax
ing. IL with one eye the scene looks
fat II will not make satisfactory

JAPAN'S DARING WHALERS.
They Risk Drowning to Escape the In.
furisted Animals Tail.

VuTtateo AUimsIe att
Many OF the japanese whalemen are
most expert and daring men. After a
whale has been cornerSI. harpooned
and is slowly giving out from ex-
haustion the nimble expert OF the
fhaling crew must prove his mettle.
The skilled Jap. after jumping upon
the animals back aud cutting two
gashes in the head. one on each side.
through which rope must be run and
tied, cannot always perform his work
in one trial. Often the animal makes
deep dive. But the little Jap must
hold fast to his quarry and dive also,
trusting to his fates that his own air
supply in his lungs will last as long as
the whales.
The Jap is safer from being drowned
than from being crushed by the inflri-
ated animals tail IL the little jap
let go Il usually means death. so he
hangs on to the diving quarry. Ere
quently these whalemen lose their
lives from drowning but the members
OF their crew look upon this misfor-
tune with something OF fstalistic
regard.
But the main business In hand is the
capture OF the whale. AS the fight
progresses and the maddened. fright
oned animal grows weaker aud finally
is DYING the boat crews row closer to
the body and pray for the ease of the
departing spirit Members OF the crew
will call ont the words 'Joraku, 10
raku. Josaku," and on the third day
after the animal has been hauled
ashore service is held and prayers
offered for the animals future con
tentment in spirit.

ed TO the shore line he is cut up. the
