RUsSIA'S MIGHTY RIVER.
The Sluggish Vosa Is Three Times as
Long as the Rhine.


In Russia the rivers are large and
sluggish, owing to their great length
and slight fall. The Volga is the long
est river in Europe. II is 2,300 miles
in length-that is, three times as long
as the Rhine-yet its total fall is only
a little over 500 feet.
The peat boys in the Valdai hills,
where it takes its rise, are only 100
feet above sea level, while Astrakhan,
ut the mouth, is sixty-iive feet below
the level of the sea-
The Russian fondly speaks and sings
of it as "Matushka yolga." or Little

for the bounteous supply of fish, caviar

WORDS IN THE MAKING.
Our Language Grows by Terms Created

Language can be made in the IL

Imaginative energy of our race ex-
presses itself spontaneously in swift

could be better, each in its own day.
than picturesque vocables like scare
head and loan shark, windjanmer and
hen minded all of them American con-
ulbutions TO the English language and
all of them examples of The pnrest
English. Hen minded is an adjective
devised by Mr.. Howells to describe
those women who are. so common in
all walks of life and who are made
up of only one aim ut time and of
manifold anxieties Mt all times. Scare
head and loan shark are the products
of the newspaper office, while wind
jammer was put together by some
down east sailor man, inheritor of the
word forming gift of his island an
cestors who helped TO harry the ar
NADIA. "Windjammer,' remarked Pro
fessor Gildersleeve, trained by his
intimate knowledge of Greek to APP
preciate verbal vigor as well as verbal
deicacy-"w indjammer is Il fine word,

cnmnound that grows and is not

But all new words are not of neces

The British and the pro British
characterize the sinking of the Lusi-
tania as murder, piracy. and the great
est atrocity Of the war They de-
mand and seem to expect that the
United States will declare war on
Germany in revenge for the loss of
American lives. The German view is
expressed in an official statement:
THE Cuhard finer Lusitania was yes
terday torpedoed by German sub
marine and sank. The Lusitania was
armed with guns. as were recently
most of the English mercantile steam
ers, Moreover, as is well known here
she had large quantities of war ma
terial in her cargo. Her owners,
therefore. knew to what danger the
passengers were exposed. They
alone bear all the responsibility for
what has happened Germany on her
part, left nothing undone to repeated
ly and strongly warn them. The inn
perial ambassador in Washington
even went so far as to make public
warning. so as to draw attention to
this danger The English press sheer
ed then at the warning and relied on
the protection of the British feet TO
safeguard Atlantic traffic Both
these views are the views of the par
ties who are principals in the war
and represent the hate of each other
that always accompanies war. The
American people should not rush to
the violent support of either party
Neither is wholly right 1t is better
to await the conclusion of President
Wilson who has more of the facts at
his command than anybody else and
who also has the benefit of the
greatest authorities on international
law and rights of neutral nations

L.
1t is astonishing to read the varie-
ty of opinions expressed by the sur
vlyors of the Lusitania disaster.
Hardly do any two agree on a single
detail. Robert Rankin says that on
lly one torpedo struck the vessel and
another survivor who stood near
says that three or four torpedoes
struck the ship. One thing that
seems fairly well established is that
overconhdence cost many lives. The
captain and officers did not believe
the injury was serious after the first
explosion and several moments were
lost and passengers misled Scores
of them did not even try to find life
belts until it was too late.
