Barring Out the Wolves.

Every Siberian village is sur
rounded BY a big stockadc some ten
Or fifteen feet in height. This cree
ton is to prevent the sheep and
cattle from wandering into the for
ests and SO falling a prey to the
wild animals which swarm therein.
In addition to this, each village
makes common property of an enor-
mou number of dogs Of the wolf
hound breed, which are kept for
protection from the packs of wolves
which in winter, desperate with
hunger, descend upon the villages.
Such dogs are rightly priced and,
though they belong to nobody in
particular, are kept well fed and
cared for. They are huge beasts,
almost as savage as wolves them
selves.

ing America. The right arm was
raised, pointing upward, On the
left arm was IA buckler with a blue
ground carving thirteen stars. On
the stern Of the ship, under the
cabin windows. appeared two large
figures in bas-rellef representing
Tyranny and Oppression bound
and bleeding o the ground. On
the back of the starboard quarter
was a large figure Of Mars" On

Philadelphia furnished not only
the greatest ship designer in tho
United States, but also The best
ship caryer in the world, William
Rush. In this field he was without
a rival. and to a wonderful tcchni-
cal skill he added an artistic sense
Of beauty and genius for compost

Rush was the first carver to give

In my opinion the want of occu-
patton is no less the plague Of So
ciety than of solitude. Nothing is
SO apt to narrow the mind; nothing
produces 0 trifling, silly stories,
mischief making lies than being
cternally shut up in a room with
one another, reduced, as the only
alternative, to be constantly twad-
ding. Mhen everybody Is occupied
we only speak when we have some
thing to say, but when We are doing
nothing We are compelled to be al
ways talking, and of all torments
that is the most annoying and the

on board her.
An American citizens presence, it was
believed by some officials, would be the
one condition on which the United
States could base a protest in the event
of attack on the ship.
They based their opinion on frequent
past rulings by Secretary Lansing on
cases in which armed "a well as unarm-
ed Allied merchantmen have been at
tackled or sunk by Teuton U-boats. In
every case. Secretary Lansing has eN
phcitly explained, presence Of Ameri'
cans aboard must be shown before thi'
government could demand explanation
disavowal or reparation or all three
from the government whose hag th'
attacking ship carried.
To suggestions that "undersea
merchantmen" mean changed condi-
tions and therefore should mean
changes in international law, officials
today pointed to the stand Of Secre-
tary Lansing that international laws
affecting sea warfare. blockades, etc.
could not be changed during the
course Of war. except by unanimous
consent OF all belligerents.
This continued refusal TO admit
.Germany's contention that changed
conditions of warfare made changes
in international law necessary was EN-
phasized in the refusal Of this govern
ment to harken 10 Teutonic protests
that an Allied merchant ship carrying
even a 3-inch gun should be classed
as a warship. Despite her protests
Germany was forced TO the United
States internretatIon.

tempted to induce Russia to join
against Japan to block Japanese IN
terests.
Therefore, the treaty really has a
two-fold purpose First, Russia for
the next decade must concentrate her
attention on europe. having no time
to look eastward. so she felt the need
OF an ally in the Far East to pro
tect her interests there. Secondly
Russia has no intention of allowing
Germany TO do to China what she
did to Turkey. That is all there is
to it.
America can dismiss baseless talk
of the treaty being leveled at her.
This treaty is really the last OF three
all similar. The first in 1908 stipu-
lated an agreement between Russia
and Japan on Manchurian policies,
The second in 1910 acting together
with the third in 1916 merely goes
step further.
