LittlHTY IS TRIUMPHING IN RUSSIA
• When Servius Witto, the groat
peac^?nvoy returned to Russia
after the treaty of peace had been
made with Japan he was made a
Count by the Czar in recognition
of his jrreat service to his nation.
Ever since, he has been a con-
stant and trusted adviser of the
Czar, and has used his iulluence,
! not to further his own ambitions
but for the good of his fellow cit
iz*ns of the great empire.
So influential has he become at
court that he has persuaded the
Czar to practically relinquish his
; autocratic power and to give ii
over to the representatives of the
people.
The announcement was made
by the emperor last Monday
morning that he would issue an
imperial manifesto that evening
making Count Witte prime min
i ister with special powers relat
iug to the organization of the gov
eminent, giving the people civil
liberty, enlarging the suffrage
and granting to the national as-
sembly legislative power instead
of a consulting power as hereto-
fore.
Great anxiety was felt every
where during the day—the peo-
ple wondering if the promise
would be fulfilled in a way that
would make their lot any more
endurable than it has been.
The great strike among the
workingmen of St. Petersburg
had extended to the printers and
the press of the city was de-
prived of the privilege of impart
ing the welcome news to the pub
lie, who only learned of it through
the columns of the Official Ga
zette, published by the govern-
ment. The news rapidly spread
throughout the cities of the em-
pire, and in a few hours the
streets of St. Petersburg were
thronged with marching crowds
of the people singing the Rus-
sian National hymn and venting
their joy with shouts and cheers
for the emperor and empress.
The document is clear and sim-
ple in st.vle and is regarded as
the work of Count Witte, and in
it the Czar bows to the inevitable.
He begins by reciting the fact of
the disaffection prevailing among
liis people and admits that he has
been driven to this step by the
agitation for greater liberty than
they have had, and the document
issued grants civil liberty, the
inviolability of the person, and
liberty of conscience, freedom of
speech, and the right of the peo-
ple to assemble in public. He
sides this he changes the "Dou-
ma" or "Parliament," into a leg
islative assembly, with the actual
right of originating laws, and
also promises, eventually, uni-
versal suffrage.
The burden of the work of re-
organization will fall upon Count
Witte who has been designated
Minister-President. He has al
ready selected his cabinet, but
instead of takingone of the portfo-
lios himself he has decided to not
hold a place in the cabinet.
The day following the announc-
ment St Petersburg was ablaze
with a great display of flags and I
bunting and there was general
rejoicing among the people. The
troops were withdrawn from the
streets, workmen by the tlious
ands returned to the workshops
and factories to labor without
waiting for the strike to be de
clared off, and the authorities did
all they cvuld encourage the
people.
If the government keeps faith
with the people in the execution
of these pledges a new era is
•dawning for Russia, and she will
take a new ]x>sition among the
powers of the world.

A Hallowe'en Party.
The Misses Madge and Eu-
nice Smith entertained for Miss
Una Cox of Wichita, last Monday
night by giving a Hallowe'en
party.
On account of the unusually
stormy night conveyances were
sent after the quests.
The house was illuminated
throughout with weird lights
from pumpkin shells grotesquely
carved. The guests having ar-
rived thegentleinen were present-
ed paper padlocks, and keys
were given to the ladies—each of
whom secured a partner by find-
ing the padlock which her key
would unlock. Within the pael
lock were found instructions for
the evening's entertainment. On
the first page they were bidden
to drink from the fountain of
Perpetual \outh (I he punch
bowl) presided over by two lit
tie fairies Inez (Jose and Merle
•Smith. Aften- partaking and
feeling their youth renewed the
gentlemen were told to take an
other lady to the booth of the
Gipsy Queen where the vail was
lifted from the' future and mys-
teries were revealed.
On the third page instructions
were given for another change
of partners and they were direct-
ed to the Mystic Hall where twol
youths fresh from the Orient
served the follev.ving

Monday and Monday night,
which later reports show was
quite general. At Wichita on

of Sunday night was a continua-
tion of that storm. There has
