RUSSIAN CALENDAR, July 24. I remained at Warsaw only a day and a night, but was pn the go every waking hour, spending part of the evening on a letter to the EVENJNG RECORD. I have not seen a copy ol your sprightly little daily since I left home, a wanderer in foreign lands, more than six months agoi and would give a rouble equal to fifty cents of American money for today's issue. No one but a traveler, far from home and friends, can appreciate how one values a token or remembrance from home and country. Even a postal card inscription from that veteran ex- editor, Harry Watson, bad and illegible a fist as he writes, would nevertheless find a patient nod interested reader over here in the Cz ir's domin ions.

There was an air of depression and melancholy in Warsaw that I have experienced in no other city in my journey ings save only at Jerusalem. Even the little children were silent. One hundred and five years under the yoke of Russia has not altogether removed from the Pole the hope some day oi old time liberty and independence. Only the most watchful and rigid military discipline at this time prevents an uprising. Mounted Cossacks and Russian soldiery literally line the streets of that troubled city.

I gladly shook the dust the Polish capitol from my feet, and departed, never to return. A ride of two days and one night brings me to historic Moscow. Mr. Oswald Cancel, on train, a German born in Pittsburg, who has lived in this city the past thirty years, and who speaks English fluently, helped me to order my meals, and thus I got along first-rate. He also interpre ted a bill of fare for me for future use, which insures rne something to eat while in this land of the Greek alphabet, where I he feiv English letters used are generally printed upside down.

Their letter stands for in our language, as shown upon the silver roubles. No lewer than 5,000 women are employed on this railway as Rate-keepers and flagmen. Every insignificant cow crossing is protected. These peasants wtre nearly always barefoot, but were careful to have their heads wrapped up good and warm, while some of them had mittens on. The first requisite in arriving in a Russian city is to hand over your passport to the hotel manager.

Then it goes to the police. A fee all around for this service is found in your hotel bill, and one is glad that he fares no worse. I shall never become a naturalized citizen of Russia. I would rather live in Mercer. Here is the farthest point east on my itinerary, and when I make another start I will indeed be homeward bound by easy stages, reaching Liverpool, October 25, sailing day.

There is a difference of nearly 9 hours in time between Moscow and Western Pennsylvania. The greatest attraction here is the Kremlin or Citadel, within the walls of which are the gold lined churches, the alaces, the treasures and the arsenal. Von are shown in the old palace the ooms of Napoleon and the bed he occupied when here in 1812. The Kremlin is of stone, with 10 to 20 bot walls, and would not burn when the city was destroyed. The Kremlin las five gates, the most important of which is thu savior's gate, surmounted by an Icon or Holy Image, which is held veneration by the Russians, is necessary to uncover head when passing umler this image.

I ascended the tower of Ivan, 325 feet high tiom the summit, of which may be had best view of the city, with its picturesque houses of blue and red roofs. The city is built on seven hills and has now a population of one million two hundred thousand inhabitants. The city covers 46 square miles, and is the second largest city in Europe. It contains numerous gardens and fine boulevards and 450 churches, with thfir slender steeples and gilt and colored domes, all form a striking and unique picture. The Cathedral of the Assumption is where the czars are crowned for Moscow, is the political capitol of Russia, while St.

Petersburg is the tesidi-niial capitol. Among the many valuable Icons here the first is that ol the Holy Virgin of Vladimin, said to baye been painted by (Continued on last page.) Our Own added to their other achievements Saturday afternoon by defeating the Youngstown new independent team two games. It was bargain day at Packard park, one game being started at 2:30 and one at 4:15. In the first Coffman and Richards were the opposing twirlers and a good game resulted. Greenville made four errors but doubled the score on Youngstown by superior hitting.

Coftman asked to pitch the second game also and the request being granted shut out Youngstown ra to giving only 8 hits in the 18 innings and only one base on balls, while struck out 14.

SECOND GAME. Threatening weather kept many people away from the Central harvest home Saturday, but the crowd was big and Ruhlman's grove, between Hadley and Fredonia was filled with people. After a basket dinner the exercises were called to orded by President James Gamble, of Fairview, who introduced Rev. S. B.

Stupp, the latter invoking the divine blessing. The Jamestown band then rendered a selection and furnished music at intervals during the program. Speeches were made by W. H. Cbch- ran, of Mercer, Oliver and William Kerchner, Asa Eckles of Chicago, Prol.J.

S. Fruit, of Mercer, Rev. W. F. Shannon, Fredonia, and Rev.

S. B. Stupp, of Greenville. Michael Bromley, of Fairview, a well known citizen, aged 80 years also made an address. The platform was very tastily decorated with evergreen and flowers.

The attendance is estimated at 6,000 by those in charge. No officers were elected but time of next meeting was set for last Saturday of August, 1901. STEVENSON. The Stevenson family "rounded up" at J. B.

Stevenson's Salem township, Saturday, and a right enjoyable time it was, for the 245 people present; from the average height of Stevenson's they doubtless had a "tall" time. That important feature, the dinner, he- ing dispatched, President Charles Hazen called the people to order, when some songs were sung. Rev. Mr. Gow read from 2 Peter ist chapter, offered prayer and preached a short sermon.

Interesting recitations were given by Misses Hazel Hazen and Belle Stevenson, and a short address by Prof. Claude Hazer. Election of officers resulted as follows President, J. vice president, J. treasurer, M.

and chorister, J. M. Stevenson, organist Mrs. Mary Roberts. The family history will appear later.
