This year Easter Sunday will eome on
April 3d. This early will no doubt de
tract, in a measure, from the popularity
of the Easter bonnet and pretty white
dresses, in the northern part of the state,
as the season will not be advanced enough
to warrant the wearing of summer head
gear,
RUSSIA’'S LUST FOR LAND.
The Russian has an insatiable thirst for
land, He has absorbed Poland, Finland,
part of Turkey and wide stretches of Asia.
Manchuria is his present meal, but he
is casting greedy eyes upon Korea, Per.
sia, Afghanistan, Turkey. India and what
remains of dismembered and helpless
China, and unless his advance is checked
now by the legions of Japan, or later by
some other power or powers, his progress
southward will end only at the Mediter
rancan, the Rad sea and the Indian
ocean,
The means - by which this land was
taken have varied. Sometimes by war,
sometimes by diplomacy, sometimes by
settlement, he has reached his ends. He
did not hesitate at butchery if butchery
were necessary. He cheerfully lied if ly
ing would forward his purpose. He fo
mented internal discords in the coveted ‘
kingdom if he thus could come in under
the guise of peacemaker and take the
country for his own. If it were necessary
to reach his goal ‘y indirection, then the
indirect route was followcd; if he was
compelled to seize his prey when the
other powers were not looking, such sei
zure was made, if he had to wait a cen
tury before achieving his object, he wait
ed patieutly and stolidly. Beaten back
at one point, he reached out at others,
but always aud everywhere he kept one
thing in view—to get the land.
