Another Tragedy in, Russia. - On Sunday, January 22nd, about 100,000. working. men, who were ap- proaching tho‘Winter Palace [at St. Petersburg in order to present a petition .to the Czar, were attacked by, soldiers . called out to oppose them, and" several hundreds oli‘t/hemawere killed ; and on Fâ€"i‘iday last, the 17th inst., the Grand Duke Sergius, uncle audibrother-in‘lew of the Czar, and' the most reactionary member of the Grand Ducal Cabal, was blown to pieces by a bomb tlirowndnto or under his carriage while Ire-was be- ing‘ driven through..one-of the-principal ,thoroughfareszof Moscow. This is .the dust ofalong list of political assassina~ tions in Russia, full particularsvof‘whlch may be seen in the daily papers;_but it is likely soon to .be followed by others. Itjs said that “the crime may be traced ,with..some measure of certainty to Rus- 7sian agents of the Social Democratic Revolutionary Society,” but this is simply a bare-faced lie coined by the capitalist press for theopurpose of cast- ing“ discredit upon: Socialists. The 'massesin Russia... want reforms, which they are bound to have, but which in that country cannot be obtained through the ballot box. The Grand Dukeâ€" like Von Plevhe, who was killed a few months ago-â€"was warned that he had been condemned to death..but refused to modify his policy, and was consequently “ executed," as the Terrorist Party call it. The statement) is made~that 5,0007copies ofa»manifesto have been issued from that party's secret press at Moscow, announcing that other cxccu tions will follow, and that a number of: formal candemnations have been signed. The Czar’s life is simply not worth hav- ing, as he knows not at what moment he may be struck down. or blown into fragments;-f0r it is ccrtainthat, if the revolutionary organization condemn him- - to death, the sentence will sooner or later be carried out, in spite of every precaution that. can. be taken. It is saidthat in. no. one instance has the organization failed to take a_.lif.e-it sought, and that the Czar has been twice condemned and then temporarily rcprieved. One of two. things is cer- tain :;there~will either be a revolution in Russia or reforms must be-i'naugur- ated.. The Nevosti and‘ the Russ, two influential papers published in St. Pet- ersburg, commenting on the assassins». tion of Grand Duke Sergius,.poiut out how impossible it is for present cen- ditions to continue. The latter says: “From the day of Minister of the Interior Von Plehve’s death.the fight- ing organization of the-revolutiOnists held its peace, and ten months of Prince , Svlatopolk-Mirsky's regime was a period of active but peaceful: propaganda. Now that blood again has been-shod, _ although foreigners predict all will end in revolution, Russians know the case is not hopeless. Once representatives .of the people are allowed to participate in the Government, and the nation is di- rected in the road of peace and progress, our sufi'erings must end. We do not want blood and terror. but peace and peaceful conditions. In this hope we see our only safety from the tragic in- cidents that are happening about us.” . A“-.. ..._.-._.. “‘3‘ Government Will Consider It. The following paragraph, under the above heading, appeared in the Globe a few days ago : "Inquiry was made at the Crown Lands department yesterday respecting ashooting privilege reported to have been granted by the late Administration to Mr. H. H. Macrae, Col. H. M. Pel- latt and others, over several miles of marsh on the border of Rice Lake for a period of twenty-one years, atan ,an- nual rental of $160. It was learned that, while the order in Council had been granted some three weeks ago, the lease or concession had not yet been ex- ecuted, and that the matter will be one of several acts of the recent administra- tionuwhichwillucomc before the new, €pclicy has been. carried quite far posed of‘to a” favored few who.have ithatdf: Mr. lli‘aorac aud:the others were "to have the privilege of sub-letting the m Government for consideration."

Reynolds, of the Ontario Aggicnltural College :.-; I u~Ti1e season of the year hasarrived when the ice house may be filled. and there is no reason why most farm houses may, not have alcontinueus supply of ice throughout the summer. Where a stream or sheet of. water is within reach, the cost is but trifling. The ice house Can “be constructed very cheaply after the followingfashion :; Large posts six or eight inches in diameter may be sunk- into the ground to support the frame- work forming the walls. For a small ice house two, _or., at mosththrec posts on each side would ‘be sulficient. Inside the posts two-inch .plenkmay be nailed on, the posts and the plank completing the walls of the -stcnage. be constructed of short pieces of plank kept in pltcn on the inside by the ice itself, and on the outsideby the posts. As the ice is.used, the-boards closing the doorwaymny be taken down one af- ter- the other. The roof may be made afteriwany fashion. to suit the builder; the shanty roof, shingled, would perhaps be as cheap.,and. satisfactory as any. In the fitling of the ice house the flour should be covered a foot deep with saw- dust or dry chopped-'straw. The ice. may then be laid upon this, leaving 21.; space all around between the ice and the wall about one foot wide. As the ice is filled in, this space should be filled with sawdust Gin-straw, whichever is needy. each layer of ice is completed, the crevices between the blocks should be filled in with ice chips and soft snow, so as to exclude all air-,lrom a- mong the ice. ice is in place, the should be covered a foot deepxwith. straw or sawdust. The site of. the house should be care- fully chosen, so .that good drainage is provided... it is very important that the ground below the ice shouldibe-kcpt dry. A building twelve feet square and eight feet high..nfiording space within for. ice 10x 10 x 6 feet, wiil' contain “about fifteen tons of ice, which would anudoubtedlybe‘amplc for all purposes on the farm. The material required to construct this buildingwould be only a trifling cost, and a fc‘wtrips to the near- est pt‘md or creek would bring enough ice to fill the house.” “=~_'-= E. .5 ' Personals; ' Mr. George A.
