Orleans Concert Band Notes.

A large company braved the cool
evening air to enjoy the splendid
double concert by the Barton-Orleans
bands Friday evening. The people
gave excellent attention which was
greatly appreciated by the players.
The following program will be CIV
en- Friday evening, August 9Th, A.
81. Billiard, director: March, Norum-
bega; overture, Encouragement; duet,
Tranquility, Miss Billiard and Mr..
Domino; one-step, Good Morning,
Mr.. Zip, Zip, Zip; waltz, Olivette;
march, Our Director; duet, Jennie
Polka, Billiard and Domino; fox trot,
Ja-Da; march, Colonel Miners; a
medley of war songs, United We
Stand.
The band management wish to
have the band stand moved to the
corner of the park as soon as possible.
1t is estimated that it will require
SIS to move and repair the stand and
put it IN good shape. Some of the
business men have made the request
that a paper be prepared and pre-
sented to them to start the ball
rolling. You may be prepared to
expect some one to bring it to you
The players receive about enough
money from the public treasury to
purchase their music and with the
quality of concerts which they have
been giving this summer they should
receive this encouragement from the
people

A Fine New House.

The chic bungalow that Mr.. and
Mrs. Z. E. Mathews are having erect
ed at the upper end of School street,
overlooking the beautiful valley OF
the Willoughby and Barton rivers to
the north, the picturesque hills of
Bloomington to the east and the vii
lage of Orleans to the west, is near
ing completion.
The house is 80 by 80 feet with
full-length verandas front and back.
The living room, dining room, den
and kitchen are cosy, yet comfortably
large, well lighted and conveniently
arranged. There are three pleasant
and commodious chambers with clos
cts, hall and toilet room on the Sec
ond floor.
The cellar is in dry gravel soil, as
surfing stable foundation and thus
avoiding many of the sorrows
that are SO common to man. 1t will
be heated by a Round Oak pipeless
furnace to be installed by Whipple,
French & Co.
One IS everywhere impressed by the
economy of space and the comfortable
living quarters. The exterior, in quiet
harmony with its surroundings, is a
snug bit of pleasing architecture. B.
A. Scott, the contractor and builder
of this attractive home is hoping to
have 1t ready for occupancy about the
first of September.

French POLICY ON
RUSSIA REDEEMED
N. Pichon Says It Has Never
Wavered in Not Sending
Many Troops There.
BY PAUL SCOTT MowRER.

BY PAUL SCOTT MoWRER.
CableEfam to The Evening Star and
Chicago Daily News. Copyright, 1919.
THE DAILY NEWS PEACE con-
FERENCE BUREAU. PARIS. France,
June 10 (delayed).-M. Pichon. minis
ter Of foreign affairs. has just rede-
fined Frances Russian policy, which at
the same time. he assures the French
parliament. Is the Russian policy of
all the allies. Looking back over the
last five months, it is seen that the
American and British attitude toward
Russia has been vague and vacilat-
ing. now flirting with the bolsheviki
and now strongly condemning them.
The policy of France. on the other
hand, has never wavered since it was
outlined by NJ. Pichon last Deem
Der. In such matters single minded
ness easily becomes a social strength.
What, then, is the French policy? ?
In the first place, France is opposed
to sending troops to Russia. Such
troops as she has there now were
sent against the Germans. There are
less than 500 of them in Siberia and
less than 1000 in the Archangel re-
gion. OF three divisions which were
supporting the Rumanians along the
Dneister river one has already been
Withdrawn and the others will be as
soon as the Rumanians are able to
defend themselves. There are no 9TH
er French troops in Russia and no
more will be sent
France Anti-Bolshevist.
It is no secret. according to NJ
Pichon. that, when, in 1917. inter-
vention in Russia against the Ger
mans was decided upon. the British
were allotted Archangel and the eau
casus as their spheres of action, and
these allotments are said to have no
political or economic significance
whatever. France is unshakably anti
bolshevist. NJ. Pichon admits frankly
that the $4,000. 100000 francs ($3,600,-
000,000) which Russia owes France
Is a consid eratfon. but insists that il
Is merely minor consideration. In
the first place. France regards boil
shevism as a reign of autocratic ter
against their will, and processes to
feel that it is her moral duty to aid
the Russian people to shake off this
nightmare.
In the second place. bolshevism is
regarded as an international danger,
which. as long as it continues. may
threaten France herself and which.
therefore. should be stamped out at the
source. But above all. France believes,
and probably with good reason, that
Germany's chief hope of renewed world
lies in obtaining a pre-
dominant influence over enfeebled and
divided Russia. France, therefore. is
seeking to restore a strong. united
and integral Russian state, including

all the former provinces except Po-
land and Finland on democratic
federal basis with the free consent OF
all the regions concerned.

British Hopes in Mandates.

| Such is the French policy. 1t is per-
fectly open and perfectly clear. but
| If the American government has &C
quiesced it is probably only in a
negative way. AS for Britain. while
i she undoubtedly shares Frances fear
| that a divided Russia would fall an
easy prey to the Germans, she also
has reason to fear the new vigor and
new ambitions which might be de-
| veloped by united. powerful, demo-
cratic Muscovite state. Russia ana
Britain long have been rivals IN the
near east and southern Asia. AT the
present time the Britons have gotten
the Russians out of Persia. have
strengthened their hold throughout
the near east and are probably con-
templating strengthening the protec-
torate over Afghanistan.
At the same time. there is nothing
to prove that the old Russians. south
ward push may not ultimately be re-
newed. 1t is obviously for this reason
chiefly that Britain is so anxious TO
see the United States take mandate
, over Constantinople and Armenia or
both The United States would then
stand in Russia's way and would be
helping to defend the British empire
1t is for similar reason that the
British have offered the Italians
mandate over the Caucasus. which
has hitherto been the principal high
way of Russian encroachments south
ward.

Supporting Admiral Kolchak.

1t is believed that such state
would not only be able to resist Ger
man encroachments, whether political
or economic. but also would renew the
alliance with France. thus Offering
strong guarantees against a possible
ultimate German danger. To achieve
this aim France is Encouraging" all
constructive" elements in Russia to
unite against bolshevism.
France has accepted Admiral kol-
chalk as a leader of this movement
first. because he seems to be the
man most likely to succeed, and sec
ond, because Kolchak has promised
the allies that as soon as the boil
sheviki are overthrown he will call
a constitutional assembly. elected by
free, secret and universal suffrage:
will recognize the independence of
Finland and Poland; will accept the
engagements made with the allies by
the provisional government in 1917:
will accept the league of nations. and
will make liberal settlement of the
land question. France has great sym
pathy for the sufferings of the Rus
sian people. but is opposed to lifting
the blockade. because it believes that
it would only give a renewed lease OF
life to the bolsheviki.
