THE FIRST RUSSIAN CONGRESS. The present strujrjfle between Russia and Japan will probably result in Im proved conditions in each empire. Russia has more to pain from the gen eral shakeup than has Japan, simply because Russia is the more backward country. One of the most important events that has come as an accompaniment of the recent struggle is the upheaval in Russia looking to popular rights Russia has no popular assembly wor thy the name. The nearest thing to uch an assembly is the meeting of the Zemstvolsts or delegates from the .Zemstvos or districts. These dele gates can meet and talk, provided they meet when they are asked to do so and talk about affairs in an unobjection able way. Since Prince Mirsky has oome into power as minister of the in terior to succeed Van Plehve, assasin ted, the Zemstrolsts have received aauch encouragement. Under the new regime the Zemstro lata have held what may be called the first Russian congress. They presen ted a memorial on constitutional gov ernment to the czar, and were accorded an audience by him. The czar is per sonally inclined to deal liberally with bis subjects in such matters as pertain lo government. But the Russian "ays tern" forbids his doing much. Any way the cause of constitutional government iV moving forward per cepiibly even in the land of the czar, nd those now living may tee impor tant political changes In the great northern despotism. NO SET BACK FOR REFORM. . Developmentsslnce the election have shown that the stand pat policy did not win at the polls on the Eighth. The majority of the people of the country demand reformreform of the tariff , and reform In the method of trust illation, reform in governmental mat ters generally. For some reason or other the major ity of the American people chose to commit this reform to Roosevelt and the Ilepublican party rather than to Parker and the Democratic party. Ue form Is on the boards, and it must be carried oat to the satisfaction of the people, or there will be another land slide nexi November and the Republi can party will be the sufferer. It is a question whether President Roossvelt will yield to the reformers within his party or stand by the stand patters. The latter class seems to have the upper hand at present, and there will be a "merry old time' be fore they give in if they do at all. The Republican leaders are afraid that if a breach in the tariff wall is once made it may not know where to stop until all schedules have been over hauled and made reasonable. The people are averse to changing administrations in comparatively pros perous times. But if certain well de fined changes are not made tbet will no longer hesitate. It seems that John D. Rockefeller, who once said that be would give a million dollars for a stomacbe, has come into his own again. ' Since 1889 he has suffered from indigestion, and for quite a while has been compelled to Jive on stale bread and skimmed milk. His Standard ' Oil millions availed him nothing so far as the Thanksgiving turkey dinner is con cerned. - But this year Mr. Rockefeller waa permitted to indulge in the thanksgiv ing bird. ' He has probably paid a million dollars for the cure of his in digestion. -, An expenditure of $5,000,000 will soon be made in an effort to develop the Yadkin ' river nover : plant near Salisbury.

To thin I agreed m::l lifter a lo;;en or more kisnew icft her. not to nee her HRnln til! tli' iniddio of November, when I wan to spend the trial month at her house. I am an i.inlaldo man when noUiiiij; occurs to Irritate me, rather impatient und iruRc-iliie for the moment, though cloud is followed hy Miii-hine in itliik sueeesslon. Idirinn the montli I spent in Miss Kennedy's hone 1 o:ifesn 1 waa ulwaj-H on my j'r.:ml. I made it a point to eonie il.wn to hreakliiHt In a happy mo: d, anil on returning in the evening from li:;sit;ess, h; matter what hud lx't'ii the asmoyam-en .f the day. I was in an excellent humor. It oceunvd to me that the tent wan a farce he cnuKe I was nlwnvs prpnared. - The feminine stupidity of my ladylove in conBiderltig it of value wua very charm- lug to me. On the evening before the month wr.s up 1 came home from busintsu after dnrk to find the ho-.-.sc unusually culd nnd cheerless. The lights had not been lighted und houic one Lad left a window on in the drawing room, for I could feel the raw air pouring in. went Into the room and started to go across the floor to put down the win- dojHr. On the way I ran my instep a very tender spot against the rocker of a chair. I am not habitually used to swearing, bnt the pain on this occasion drew forth an outh. , I was terror stricken at remembering that some one might have heard me. I listened, but could not hear a sound in the- house. "All out shopping, I suppose,' I mut tered. "But why they wanted to leave such uu uncomfortable house for a man to come home to I ean't see." I pushed forward, struck a table and heard the -crocking of broken glass on the floor. I knew that I had knocked over n lamp giouc or cousiaerauie vaiue und I well, I swore. Stepping on the broken glass that cracked ugatn unticr my reel, i went on toward the window nud struck one of those delicate Htands used for bric-a- brnc. I cursed that idiosyncrasy of women which leads tltem to put such fragile articles In men's way, nnd by tills time Jt seemed Imposs-ible for me to find words lurid enough to express my dissatisfaction. I made up my mind to first close the window, tl.tn strike a light, then clear away the rubbish, tfucueniy remem bering that I was still on trial. 1 braced myself to be ready when the ladies came iu, with n smile at my dis comfiture nnd a quiet, well modulated reference as to what I ''-would do to make good the loss. Unfortunately, before the window, a siiuth exposure. were a gusiiIkm- ef p!;:!:ts perched on rests especially fitted to be knocked over, and. reneutnt; ror the sack, I .up set a flowerpot, , which broke to pieces and, I knew, covered the fioor with eurtu. Pince there was no one to hear me, I showed my wrath, cioseJ the window and started away from it to strike my nose on the edge of an open door. The pain I suffered brought forth more ex pletives. Feeling faint, I felt tuy wuy along the "wall to the sofa and was about to throw myself upon it when I put my band against a soft, warm cheek. ' - - "Is that you, dear?" asked Miss Ken nedy, as It awakened from slumber. I stammered a reply, wondering if she had been sleeping during the exhi bition of my ."disposition' and hoping she had been. "Why, it's dark." ahe said. "Having a headache. I went to sleep under the afghun, with the window up for fresh air, I must have slept more than an hour. ". ' ' " v-iyV '" - I never knew whether Miss tennedy had been awake during the episode till the day of our wedding, when she told me she bad laid a trap for me ami was conscious of the w hole of my exhibi tion. ; When I csked her why. since had not stood the test she had still ac cepted me, ahe replied: "';": '."..y : J "Love doesn't require that people should I e angels, baring your. stay at the holts several tilings occurred to try miJown eqininindty, endIjjade a very bad showing.

Exchange. AN ODD GAME. -Bow a Itnrr Inn Be Ran Wth Drops of "Water. This game can he readily made in a few minutes; by any boy or girl. As is we!l known, if a drop of water be plr.ced en a piece of paper it will be nt once absorbed by the paper, bnt if the minor is oiicd the drop of water will remain Intact and slide gracefully ove: the paper. . The first thing necessary is to get four or live books, one smaller than the other, and rest them on tbclr edges on the table. - Then get a sheet of strong paper, hold It over a lamp till it Is thoroughly blackened by the soot from the flame, and then olljt This done, yon lay It over the tops of the book covers, hold ing It down with a plate or other small vessel at the end. Take a spoon and let a few drops of water drip on the paper, and they will slide along like so many living tilings until they fall into the plate. The game is to see which drop of water gets there first It can be played by any number of boys and girls, but-"a careful wntih must be kept on the various drops of water, as they slide very quickly. By coloring the water and having each player own a differently colored drop they Rii bt readily kept track of. The one wh; gets the greater number or drops In the plate first wins the game, Trained Tortolsea. ' Japanese mitt Korean showmen, In addition to their skill as Jugglers and acrobats, display a truly marvelous skill in teaching animals tricks. Tbey not only exhibit .'educated bears, span iels, monkeys and goats, but also train ed birds. a:id, what is most astonish ing of all, trick fish. One of the most curious examples of patient training is nn exhibit by an old Korean boat man of a desen drilled tortoises. Directed by tils songs and a small metal drain, they march hr line, exe cute various evolutions and conclude by climbing npon a low table, the lar ger ones forming of their own nccord a bridge for U.e smaller," to which the feat would otherwise be impossible. When they have all mounted s they dispose themselves in three or four piles like so many plates. ? Sour oTKooooooooooe 0000000000000 Prepare Your.
