News of the dissolution reached SL Petersburg papers too late for th'*;r last editions, but the public was quickly Informed through extras and great posters set out by the police at all strget corners containing the ukase announcing the dissolution and the Imperial manifesto. Little knots of readers clustered around these the whole day. attentively perusing the manifesto the phrasing of which was calculated to appeal to the pa'riotism of tho lower Classes. Little enthusi asm or excitement. however, was evoked and many, of the readers, as they turned away, spat silently upon the ground as a sign of their deepest c ontempL The following is the full text of the Emperor's manifesto dissolving the Douma: “We. Nicholas TT. by fhe grace of God. Emperor of all the Russias. Czar of Poland. Grand Duke of Finland, etc., deplore to all our faithful sub jects. that in conformity with our or der and Instruction* since the disso lution of the first Douma. our Govern ment has adopted a series of succes sive measures to pacify the country, and estabh.h the affairs of state in their regular course. "The second Douma convoked by us was summoned to contribute, accord ing to our sovereign will, to the pacifi cation of Russia, principally by the work of legislation, without which the life of a state and the perfection of its administration is impossible: next by an examination of the budget of rev enue and expenditure which insures regularity in nntionnl finance and fin ally. by tho national use of the right of addressing interpellations to the Government with a view to establish ing every where truth and Justice.' “Entrusting these tasks to the elect ed representatives the nation placed on them by that very trust a heavy re sponsibility, and It was their sacred duty to use their rights in wise labqr for the welfare and the strengthening of the Russian State. Such were our ideas and desires when we gave to th® ration new principles for the life of the State. "To our sorrow a considerable sec tion of the second Douma failed to JusMfy our expectations. It w chine gun detachments. The military was chiefly disposed in the industrial section, but a strong force occupied tho Tauride palace vicinity. A por tion of the Tsarkuzy JCregim Regiment garrisoned the palace, while the squads of culraslcrs were stationed in the court yards of adjoining buildings. Nobody, not even Douma officials, was allowed to enter the precincts of the palace. A laconic notice was posted on the grounds announcing that “former deputies" would receive their salaries upon application to the chan cellory of the empire. Reports were in circulation during the day that the workmen were planning a great dem onstration in front of the police bar racks, but thev did not appear, and onlv occasional sightseers visited the building. Not to Spare Bullets. ' The officer in command of the troops informed the Associated Press that he had orders to disperse anv crowds collecting, without parly and not to spare the bullets in case of necessity. During the night nine of the sixteen Social Democratic leaders spe-iflcally named in the Government indictment, including Prince Tzertzerete’I and M. Dzhaparldge were taken into custody. The other seven succeeded in eluding the elaborate preparations for their arrests. Two secret service men. with signed warrants, had been as signed to follow each deputy and servo the warrants as-soon as th'e ukase was | | _ RRL I promulgated. They were instructed to i nlnn» which almost pass»a rornorehonslo nart. The perpetuity and power of His tingdom depends unon our obedience The preacher said also that “the Chris tian eonauest of the world is not only reasonable but possible: possible In a eenrration.” He said "that this great work was easily possible in twenty-five years because the doors of the heathen world are wide osen for missionary effort. With the exception of Thibet everj- na- *ion on the earth is accessible to the mis sionary. Possible because agencies of modern progress are at the command of the church. Every Influence that ad vances civilization and commerce facili tates the wo-k of the world’s evangeliza tion. Possible because the phj-sical agen cies are ample.” Following this statement the preacher announced that there was an earnest ordained men in the ministry today to do the work in twentj--five vears. This af firmation wag emphasized and sustained by facts and figures that were Interesting ’nd surprising. There am in Christian Innds more than one million ministers one for every 54G persons Tt bad h-p- estimated that an army of fifty thousand consecrated missionaries could p-each tlm gospel as n witness in everv land, and =o the p-eacbo- ar'tied that if th°-e was perfect Christian unity between th® de nominations In Cbis-ian lands, they could so distribute available forces as to accdrn- nllsh this great end.

There is a strong belief on the par f of the Nicaraguans that their with drawal would be followed by the north coast falling again into the hands of ex-President Manuel Bonil la. and a consequent renewal of war.

Ivestigation Commission. Tills story of the architect’s dream, whose real ization would have increased his com mission to S1.2S0.C00, and plunged the State deep into debt, came as the cul mination of the report of the Audit Company of New York, the reading of which James Cameron, the chief auditor for the commission, concluded Huston, the expert declared, was readv to erect a granite wall around Capitol park, build a magnificent mu- seum and library in State street, ttnd expend $7,000,000 more than-was done on trimmings which were to include heroic figures, costly art. turklsh baths and swimming pools.

Ga., June 17.—The exer clses at the University of Oe'gia chapel Sunday were full of inspi ration. The music was splendid end the sermon was a -plain, old-fashioned Gospel talk that stirred the congrega tion to the very depths. After singing ,the doxologv and the offering of- 'prayer, "by Or. F. H. Gaines, president of Agnes Scott Institute, the large congregation rose and sang. "Cor onation.” Dr.! "Gaines read Scripture selections and offered prayer, after which the copgreg’Mon sang, “My Frith Looks U-p To Thee.” Dr. Gaines announced as his text: John 10:10: “I am come that they might have life .and that they might have it more abundantly.” In substance Dr. Gaines said: “Life! What a full, suggestive mys terious word! Human life! Still what a great word!. In this narrower sense the word has a deep, personal interest to each one of us.

To make this life ’possible for man the Son of God left the thron e 0 f His glorv and came to earth, suffered, died and rose again, that men ‘might have life and have it more abundantly.’ The .Christian life Is larger, fuller, grander, better. “The subject of my sermon is ‘The Largeness, the Fullness of. the CVris- tian "Life/ It is true because it is a life saved from sin.
