MIR. Victor Sanity Delivers interest
ing Address to Clio Club,
Mr.. Victor Sanity, who recently re-
turned from Russia, where he had
charge of the mining interests of an
English syndicate, delivered very
interesting address before the Clio
club Monday evening in which he
dwelt especially ON the customs of the
people and conditions of the country
as well as upon the hardships he
met with on account of the war.
The property where he directed op-
erations was copper mine that had
been worked for a thousand years.
He found the natives a shiftless, stol-
id lot, irresponsible in their work and
so lacking in the proper conception
Of the rights of personal property,
that stealing might be designated as
one of their fixed habits. 1t is a
country where no middle class ex-
lists. The people are either princes
or paupers. The distinction between
the two is everywhere marked even
in the most common customs of life
| and goes so far as to make it an
| offense for those who are not of rank
to allow coachman to drive horses
two abreast.
Living expenses can be made low
enough so it is possible for Russian
to support his family of five or six
on wages of twenty-five cents day.
Their principal diet is bread, and tea
is the national drink. A greater por-
ton of their earnings is spent for
dress. Men wear overcoats the year
around, and medals are very import
ant parts of the decorations,
1t is possible to buy eggs for
cent and half dozen. The only
poultry the country has is crane
like bird with long legs which weight
about one pound. Grapes, pears, cher
ries and little green apples grow
