Heeds Hen, Hot Poppets. Russia has been chastened by dafeat in the far east; she has seen revolt and assassination show their heads in Poland; bitter dissent In Finland, which ia being crushed; the blsck discontent, deep muttering!, lack of loyalty In the heart of the empire. On every hand are corruption and Inefficiency, because the blight spirits of the land have been forced to the rear by the kind of base persons who Inevitably come to the front when despotism and Injustice are the order of the day. The armies more like a machine under orders, but In the ranks there are myriads of those whose patriotism has Buffered a strain from a sense of injustice, says the Philadelphia Ledger. Russia Is perhaps learning the lesson that a crest nation Inipregnable in war. and safe from infernal foes, must be composed of stout and efficient Individuals, and not of puppets and base slaves; And If she* learns the leaaon thoroughly, oriental despotism, like the administrative order, will give way to a measure of Justice and freedom Which is favorable to the production sad growth of men

Such wild shooters undoubtedly are making a good deal of noisd In the Russian and Japanese armies of to-day. as they did In oar BtwTU-iny 40 years ago. But such Miowa did not count thee and they do not count now In the work of eoldlera. Shooting in the air is n sort of hywteria. The soldier addicted to the practice Jumps higher, shoots loader

Estimate* have Just been made fo» running an electric'train from Berlin tc Hamburg. Germany, at the rate of 1|{ miles an hour. While It to possible to go at this rate-of speed. H Is by no meant practical and to In fact foolish. In thU day of telegraph and taiepbone then Is no sense In traveling at such high pressure. The strain on the mechanical equipment to strong and the strain on the human nerves Is worse. There is great danger In going at even a mile a-mlnnte gait, and anyone who would want to' go any taster than that would Indeed have to he In a great hurry.
