Big Aid to Russia.
The moral effect Of this action on the

to be great, as it probably will do much

London, Aug. 23-12:52 p. m
Reuters correspondent at Petrograd
telegraphs that the Russian naval

in front of the government buildings,

May Not Be MoItke.
Petrograd, Aug. 23.-(via London,
2:24 p. m.)-The little Russian gun
boat Sivutch, with crew Of 14S men,
is said by the Petrograd newspapers
to be the only Russian warship lost in
in the battle in the gulf of Riga
Commander Tcherkassov. who dis
tinguished himself at Port Arthur,
was in charge of the Sivutch. The
number Of survivors has not been an
nounced.
Although the president of the duma
announced that the German battle
cruiser Moltke had been sunk by a
British submarine there still appears
to be some doubt whether 1t was the
Moltke or vessel Of that type which
was sent to the bottom.
The only other German warship Of
the type Of the Moltke, according to
1915 naval records, Is the battle cruis-
er Goeben, sold to Turkey in 1914 and
renamed the Sultan Selim.

Not Dead Yet.

Dr. Bernhard Dernburg, at the Ger
man-American chamber of commerce
in New York, said about Turkey:
'1hey called Turkey the sick man
OF Europe. Now they have taken to
calling her the dying man. Well, Tur-
key may fool them yet. She may fool
them like the dying man of Dussel-
dorf.
"a Lutheran pastor called on dy-
ing man in Dusseldorf. During the
conversation that ensued the pastor
noticed that the dying man kept put
ting his hand under the bed, whence
he carried to his mouth something
that he ate with appetite.
What are you eating. my good
friend?' the minister finally asked.
My funeral biscuit, the dying man
answered, with a loud, bitter laugh.
While my wife's out I'm going to fin
lsh them up.''

A Sweetly Solemn Thought.

How dear to our hearts is the steady
subscriber,
Who pays in advance at the birth of
each year;
Who lays down the money and does it
quite gladly.
And casts round the office a halo of
cheer.
He never says: stop it; cannot afford
it,
I'm getting more papers than now can
read"
But always says, Send it, our people all
like it,
In fact, we all think it help and a
need"
How welcome his check when it reaches
our sanctum,
How it makes our pulse throb, how it
makes our heart dance,
We outwardly thank him; we inwardly
bless him
