the immense Siberian SHOWS is one
of these little towns into which the
Transsiberian railroad has blown the
breath of life. The great road or
traffic that traverses the continents
here crosses the paths of the cara
vans which lead to the tribes in the
interior. Nowhere around this town
are those farms or country houses
which give an aspect of relative Sc
Curity to a country scene. The houses
seem to lean fearfully one against
the other. The nearness of tribes OF
brigands rests heavily upon these
,]ttle places of Manchuria. There are
none of those sleighs with the decora-
tive mounting of leather and bells
which give to Russian villages in
winter the air of festival inter
minable caravans cross the roads,
little vehicles filed with large bales
of merchandise for the interior

Crows Over Places of Execution.
The sun rises and sets behind the
hills. the rolling profile of which
stands out against the clear sky.
Near the town one sees from afar
immense flocks of crows and solitary
birds of prey assembling around the
places of executions. The bolsheviki
, at first and later the adherents of
Semenoff there took all the condemned
in a doleful corteSe to these places,
and more often. moved by the sur
.viving feeling of discretion. they went
in the night with the men whom they
were impatient to have disappear and
against whom the most partisan tri-
hunals had not dared to pronounce
sentence.
In this period of transition
through which Siberia is passing it is
clear how artificial the prestige of
the settlers became when it did not
rest upon force. The discharge of
Russian garrisons disarmed by the
Chinese. the interminable quarrels be-
tween Russian chiefs and the vigorous
entry of Japan upon the scene have
diminished the Russian authority to
such point that one at times sees
Chinese coolies fighting with Rus
slams in the street.
