The Big Gunner
Of the MalakOff
And the Sharpshooter
Who Supported
Him
BY F. A. Mitchell.

One of the worlds greatest sieges
was that of Sebastopol. which occurred
in 1876. The fall of the fortress
marked the end of the Crimean war,
in which the English, the French and
the Turks on one side were pitted
against the Russians on the other.
1t was the failure of a bluff on
the part of the British ambassador
at st. Petersburg that caused thou
sands of men to kill each other and
leave a multitude of widows and or
phans to mourn for them. No better
argument for a worlds peace parlia-
ment can be derived from any ven Of
the nineteenth century than this diplo-
matte blunder.
After a good deal of lighting the
Russians shut themselves up in the
stronghold of Sebastopol to resist the
further progress of the allies and stood
one of the longest sieges in history,
extending over q period of eleven
months.
The allies approached the fortress by
that military process which is as old
as war-a system of zigzag trenches.
In these trenches, in heat and cold, in
wind and rain. the soldiers worked
their way toward the object of their
attack. From the walls the heavy
guns sent iron balls to pillow up the
earth about them and crush those who
stood In their path. On both sides the
sharpshooter was ever ready to pick
off any one who exposed even an In
initesimal portion of his person.
Among the guns that did the most
damage to the allies was n on that
part of the fortress called the Mala-
koff. 1t was an enormous piece of ord
nance. which acquired a name among
the Russian soldiers taken from the
car who reigned at the time. Nicholas.

fame and wealth,
and to live close to God. This is the
cost of the precious Oil.
Hence the wise virgins declared, in
no ungenerous spirit, that they had
none too much of the oil of the Holy
Spirit for themselves. Then they adj
vised their brethren who were de-
fcient to go to God. and to seek it by
obedience to His Word. by searching
the Scriptures and by close following
Of the Masters leading in the narrow
way.
Meantime, the wise virgins went in,
one after another-passing beyond the
veil. Then the door was shut. Once
in our misunderstanding we thought
that this represented that the foolish
virgins and all the remainder Of man
kind were banished to eternal torment.
Now, however, we notice that the
door shuts in the Kingdom class.
While others will never enter that
Kingdom. God has other blessings for
them, to come through the Kingdom
class-Christ and His Bride.

The oil of the parable evidently rep

lamps represent the Bible. In response
to the Message, the wise virgins trim

Lamps, as well as oil, the Holy Spirit,
in their hearts. Then the foolish vir-
gins said, "Give us of your OIL"
However, there is but n way to get

Age a separation, division, win take
place in the true Church of Christ.
With the Jews, a betrothal took place
between Bride and Bridegroom about
a year before marriage. During that
year any unfaithfulness to the Bride
groom annulled the contract, which
was usually made through intermedi-
aries. So, during this Gospel Age, a
Church is being betrothed to- Christ,
and covenant obligations are being en-
tered into. These agreements are made
through brethren, ministers, servants,
of the Lord and the Church.

her own MONEY" IS NEWEST
DRAMA Of EMPRESS COMPANY

Absolutely new to Tacoma and
the Pacific coast, yet one of the
big successes of last season in
the east, Her Own Money" a
forceful play by Mark e. Swan,
will be the offering for the new
week by the Empress stock COM
pany at the Empress theater, be-
ginning with the matinee Sunday.
Many Tacomans will recall Miss
Julia Dean for her appearance
here in a leading emotional role
with Nance O'Neil in THE Lily"
under the management of David
Belasco, and some idea of the
strength OF Her Own Money" may
be gained when II is known that
the play was written especially for
Miss Dean and was played by her
for several months in New York
last season.
Her Own Money" IL an In
tensely interesting and at the
same time an amusing play. II is
thoroughly American and true to
life. Its dramatic situations have
strength and power and 1t has
many witty lines and laughable
situations. II will give the mem
bers OF the Empress company ex-
celent acting opportunities and
will require the full strength OF

General Trade Conditions.

Dun's Review says: There is fur
Their abatement of the tension in finan-
cial circles, although money continues
very firm and new business is still
closely restricted to urgent needs. The
Reorganization of foreign exchange is
slightly less marked, and international
banking arrangements slowly but
gradually improving. Efforts to re-
store more normal transportation ia
cilities with foreign markets are meet
ing with gratifying success. Ship
ments of grain abroad are becoming
more extensive and buying for foreign
account continues heavy. The higher
prices induced by these purchases
cause considerable expansion in Of
ferings of wheat from the country and
these sales abroad will hasten a re-
turn to more normal conditions in in
ternational exchange. Considerable
irregularity is manifest in reports
from the leading mercantile and in
dustrial centers, but in view of exist
ing conditions the movement of COM
modities is quite well maintained.
Failures for the week in the Unit
ed States were 1854, compared with POS
last year; in Canada, So, compared
with 10 last year."

WAR REVENUE LEGISLATION
is FOUGHT IN CONGRESS
Proposed 8 Per Cent Tax on Freight
Bills Arouses ReVoIt.-Wilson's
Help Needed.

Washington.-War revenue legisla-
ton faces a fight within the demo-
cratic ranks this week that may rival
in intensity the struggle over the re-
peal of the Panama canal toll exemp-
ton for American ships.
Revolt against the proposed per
cent tax on freight transportation
charges which developed such proper
lions last week that administration
leaders decided to await the return of
the president before introducing the
revenue bill, continues to grow in
strength, and a party caucus is de-
manded by democratic members of the
house on the subject.
Majority Leader Underwood, who
withheld the revenue bill which would
tax beer, wines and freight bill, plans
to see Pres. Wilson early this week,
and to ask his open espousal of the
proposed freight tax. Mr.. Underwood
will explain to the president that there
is considerably opposition to the plan
within the party, and that opponents
of the measure want to substitute a
larger tax on beer, tax on whiskey
and distilled liquors, which was not
contemplated in the ways and means
committee bill, and, perhaps, stamp
and inheritance taxes.
