THE will of James H. Allen, n St. Louis millionaire, which was. filed for probate the other day, Is a remarkable document. Tho will Is In tho nature of a sermon, setting forth Mr. Allen's views re garding Christianity and the obli gations of wealth, ns follows: "To whom It may concern: "This Is my only nnd last will and testament. 1 hnvo never mado' n will before.

The Russian troops having ex tracted from n difficult position are now awaiting further action of the enemy. An Austrian official comuulcatlon received at Homo denies the re port of Russian victories over the Austritius, and states that about 100,000 Russians prlsloners and nearly COO cannon have been captured. It is stated at Romo that Roma nia Is making advances to Italy for common action toward Austria.

In tho little city of Rlddlo tho city-owned water Bystem pays for Its upkeep and tho Interest on the bonds issued to construct it. Every municipal water plant in tho statoi Is a good investment from a pecun iary point of view and udds to tho health and comfort of tho people who uro served with water by the city.
