RU8SIA AND JAPAN. While we periodical hare an out break of talk about the war cloud in the far eait it cannot be denied that there ia actually tome eaute for such talk, and there will be ao loo? s two powerful nations like Russia and Ja pan continue to pursue policies so dia metrically opposed to each other. Japan does not seem to care so much about Russia's occupancy of Manchu ria although the little island empire does not like that. But she does not, ! apparently, intend to allow the mighty northern jrlant encroach upon her sup posed rights in Korea. There Japan ' insists upon full control, and hands off entirely by the bear. Certainly should Russia gain con trol of Korea the independence of Japan will undoubtedly be threatened, and that is the reason the Japanese empire takes the stand it does. Should Japan go to war with Rus sia the recent Japan-British treaty wosld not obligate Britain to take Japan's part in the affair. But should tome other jjpwer lend Russia assist ance in the contest then, by treaty stipulation, Britain would be bound to assist the island empire. ' It is scarcely probable that the two powers will come to an armed conflict. "GRAFT." Below is given a very comprehen sive discussion of the meaning of the word "graft," It is from Mr. Bry- an'a Commoner, and is as follows: The word "graft'1 has been so fre quently employed of late that it has come to bare a technical meaning. It is used t to describe the illegitimate profit which a corrupt public servant makes out of his office. The moat oommoo form of graft is in the form of a rebate on contracts made by the official for the public. The postoOtoe Investigation shows that several em ployees were interested in contracts made in their departments. Of course, ills plain, bare-faced stealing, for the official acta for the people as a whole nod to pay a high price for supplies with the understanding that a part of the price will be returned to him per sonally is only an indirect method of von verting government money to his tise All purchasing agents are temp tail to misuse their positions and pub J ia opinion ought to be such as to re strain and strengthen those who hold suob positions of trust. Even school boards sometimes become venal nadf sell their decisions to the book rwnpany that offers the largest cash tonus to the board. What a sad commentary on public morals to siy that men especially selected to super Tise the instructionof the young should Iwoome purchasable. In the cities an other form of graft is to be found in t'te selling of immunity. Saloon keep- ws, gamblers and keepers ef houses of 1 J-fame, are sometimes allowed to vio late the law, provided a stipulated sum 1 paid to officers whose duty it is to woforce the law. This form of crime should be made ao odious that every party organisation would, for its own protection, unrelentingly punish its own members when found guilty of trafficking in p )1 loe authority, butback w all this misuse or oraoiai power viands the oomutercialism toe sordid, needy commercialism, which is stimu lating the love of money and condon ing the offenses against law and good morals. The only permanent remedy Is to be .found . la purifying , public bought and raising the ideals of the people. Tfca Camps or Tree.

New York, of Hendrik Ibst-n's i powerful drama. "Hedda Gublcr." is generally conowlwi by both critics and nubile to be the greatest of American actresses. "Ilwldn Gabler" Is one of the most Interfiling of Ibsen's plnys. AHIjoukIi this clraina bus seldom been presented tu English, it xasses all the qnulitie that hare distinguished tht rl.-ys of itf auuior as exxu miming ir '.1:1111111 literature. The story of "lleddu jaU j lr" is utroiiL' and consistent and is develo,M'd with uil the art of tlie Kront dra unit int. The chief role in tills ila.v affords Mrs. I'lske a splendid oi;xiitu nity for the display of the remark. ill.' ti.raiii.ttlc pow) r that has distinguished hei uiuoujf sc. reuses of Lnlmh apeeeh. Ibsen's Il.tUla Gabler us portrayed by Mrs. Fluke is a monster of iiilinity - a woiuuu cold, calculating, cynieul. cruel, who In ber utter selfishness and from the mere lust of evil tears hearts to slireds. tortures soul, plans and schemes to bring misery, slioine. il' datlon uud even Ignominious deat.. , fellow Iteiofts who art seeking for a little liucUt in their darkened lives or are bravely tlyb'.lus for redemption from sin. In the tortures she inflicts she reve's with fiendish glee, and In her triumph she glories in the ruin she has wrou; lit. Mrs. Fluke's acting is notlmible for its Intellectuality uud passion, a rare combination. She made her tirst popu lar success in the lute Mr. Lorlmer Rtoddurd's dramatization of Thomas Hardy's "Tess of the D'L'rbervilles." Although nut pliyskally suited to the part, she carried all before her and won a triumph for her nrt by the in tensity and truth of her Interpretnrion. Mrs. Fiske has to a reinnrkable degree what is termed temperament. She is MKH. C18KB. not nn emotional actress in the sense thnt Clara Morris was. but she moves the most stoical by the force of ber Impersonations. , Mrs. Fiske is a native of New Or leans, the daughter of Thomas Davey and Elizabeth Mndtleru. and in her ear tier stage cnr"er took ber mother's name..

" ' '. Mrs. Flske's occasional appearances for charity In New York during- the period of her temporary retirement tn plays that had tested - the powers - of great actresses sod the number of parts the has played since her return to the stage have lltastrated her marvelous artistic expansion and genius. ; Mrs, ' Fiske had ! been ; accepted throughout the country as the most original and, artistic of .American actresses when In the sprinx of ISr" In "Tees of the D'DrbervUles" she. electrified New York, whose critics de clared her to be unequ ilod among actresses of the English ton?ue.
