Nov. 3 , St Petersburg—Whlls the new (plans (for the government are being prepared rioting is ram pant. Large crowds throng the streets singing the national hymns And carrying pictures of the czar. They have broken into hundreds of stores, and committed great blood shed, the Cossocks have killed many but are unable to disperse the mobs. In Odessa it is thought that the casualities will amount to 5000 for the day. In the Jewish quarter bodies strew the streets and side walks. Jewish women and children are strangled and hacked to pieces in the streets where the mobs gained the upper hand. The Red Cross doctors, who are protected everywhere tell of tales that put to nhame, even the tales of il.e terrors of Kishinef. A hundred machine guns have been placed nt various points for guarding of th* streets nnd the breaking up of nn>l>s. Mobs of so-called “ Loyalis's" pour through the streets l>v thousands, and oie protected Mint helped by the regular police, the excesses and crimes that they me committing are terrible. The troops are unable to make any impression on the mobs, and their tiring has killed thousands, hospital wagunsaie passing through the .*t' eet incessantly carrying off the de id, iioitilHtcd and wounded. Premier Witte has been called upoD 1» icnove tbe governor whoae acts are held responsible for the outrages. A Lesson From the Lewts and Clark Fair. The City ot Portland, Ore., is to be congratulated on the fact that In the highly successful Lewis and Clark Fair, recently cloaed, it has proved that by the exercise of care ful forethought and good manage ment it ia posaible to carry through one of these national expoaitiona aa a paying proposition, and turn over a cash dividend to the stockholder at its close. No doubt one secret of its success is to be found in the fact that the Fair was planned on a scale commensurate with the pres ent stage of development of the Pa cific coast, and that a conservative estimate was made ot the probable number of visitors. That the gate returns should have shown a total admission af 2,5oo,ooo is a highly creditable result, and particularly so when we bear in mind that the total population of tbe state in which the Fair waa held is less tnan one- fifth that number. We have long been of the opinion that these natioual expositions have grown altogether too big and cum bersome. Tb - -wo elements of bulk and acreage, which have been bla zoned as their chief glory, are really their chief defect, and tbe bane of every weary pilgrim that bss toiled through their miles of boulevard« and plazas, or plodded through aisles of interminable length and oppressive monotony. When such Bobdingnagian buildings as those of the St Louis Fair are scattered over two square miles of territory, it is clear evidence that the builders have lost all sense of proportion; for only a race of giants, striding ten feet to our one, could cover such an exposition with any degree of com fort, or in any reasonable time. If we make our future expositions smaller, we can fill them with more select exhibits. The commissioners will be mote concerned about the quality and less about the quantity. Where such an enormous building, for instance, as the Agricultural Palace at St Louis is put up, it be comes a problem bow to fill it; for on a fioer space measuring 5 oo feet by 2,000 feet, there are bound to be whole acres of stock exhibits which are simple repetitions of other acres similarly tilled. Nor are such vast proportions necessary to produce the desired architectural results. If the St. Louis buildings and grounds had b<*en scale-1 down nearer to the pro portions of those at Portland, the effects (landscape, architectural and illuminative) would have been scarcely less striking, and the proper acquaintance and appreci ation of them would not have en tailed such mental an<| physical ex haustion Furthermore, a reduc tion in the scale >f future world’s fairs would not only serve to get rid of many miles of stock exhibits, such as may be seen in a day’s walk through any large city’s busi ness center, but it would bring the first cost and operating expenses down to a point at which ns in the Lewis and Clark Fair, the custo mary deficit would give place to a caah dividend.— The Scientific American saya of the Lewis and Clark Fair. Woman Attempts to Fleece Albany Bank. Albany, Ore., Nov. 1 . —A woman giving the name of Eva Marshall and claiming bar home is in Pitts- bnrg, Pennsylvania, attempted to secure $500 in the First National bank here this morning by forging ths name of Clay Marshall of this city as indorsement.

Tbe Presbyterian church is the onlv denomination maintaining a mission at Lienchow, and the mis sionanes stationed there are Dr. and Mrs. E. C. Machte, Rev. and Mrs. Rees F.
