"The Russian Revolailas, gentlemen') and may we all live to see it i1. I suggest that as 'm!! suitable toast for any assembly of sanguinag sexagenarians. For those who live to see the Russian Revolution will live a long, long time.

Russia is a difficult country to prophesy a bout, for just the same reason that It is difficult to forecast a day ahead the actions of a man who does not know' what he wants to do. Moreover, it is immoral to prophecy except. about horses. About the doings of talking animals it is more virtuans and prudent to bet

For this horse, though a publiè fancy, is-I have it straight from the stabla a bad starter, an ungenerous beast, on the light side as regards bone, backward in his pro- paration, and a non-tryer,

EXACT DEFINITION.

It is necessary, of course, to know exactly what is meant by "revolution." Vague general terms are well enough for the loose practices of prophecy, but for a question that has climbed to the higher plans of a wager exact definitions of terms and conditions are necessary. For a theorist expounding the probabilities of the next big race it is proper to be a little my sterious and "pin his faith" to "the upstand ing son of Fryingpaa "er to talk of seeing the popular lemon and vanilla jacket once more" triumphant.

But when the Principal Operator comes into the argument with his methods of expression the horse he fancies is spoken of very definitę. ly as "Pancake. And no doubt he will be careful to bave it clearly understood what is meant by "revelation" before he begins to make his investments. For revolution is far too loose a term for serious wagering. It would cause wrangling as to its interpretation, repudiation of responsibility, and all the trou ble and ill-feeling incidental to a reference 'to

A-DARK KIND OF HORSE,

It would not be difficult to contend that a nation in such a condition is in a state of re- volution. I should not pay over constructiva revolution; alse 1 bar palace revolution. That is a dark kind of horse that has effected many startling surprise in Russian history, and may easily bring off another coup some fine day.

A mere change of ruler or even a change of dynasty without any alteration is the principle or system of Government does not constitute the sort of revolution that I am betting against. It would be so easy.

The revolution I mean is the full-blooded French article-a national movement; not a'' family affair. When the people of Russia risa in overwhelming might to sweep away the system and to trample on the fragments of the broken machine-that will be a real revolution.

them. The most practical of the Russian reformers, as far as I have been able to observe, are those who look to the benevolence and good-will of the Autocrat for some amelia. ration of the evils of autocracy. That the Car, If he live and continue to reign, will grant pro dent concessions of civil liberty to his people is generally conceded, and, when they come to vote, however little authority at first their votes may carry, their vague discontent will begin to' crystallise into clear ideas of what they want and how they propose to get it. When that has happened a leader may emerge, and things may begin to march. But at present the only man I know of in Russia who knows just what he wants to do and knows just how he proposes to do it, and with a clear purpose before him, throws himself with energy and capacity into its achievement, is General Trepoff

LACK OF A LEADER. DANA

The number of people in Russia who desire an improvement in the system of Government is rather larger even than is generally suspect. ed. It comprises the entire population, and in- clades, the Cras, most of the Grand Dukes, the greater part of the officials, the police, and the army of all ranks, in addition to the peasantry and the professional, commercial, and indus trial classes. But the number of people who are prepared to take part lo any active mea sures for obtaining a better system is no greater. Ithan than the number of those who consider themselves qualified and entitled to be at the bead of the movement,

There is no leader with whose leadership anyone size is content The population is dissatisfied with the existing state of things, but has not the faintest aetion of how to set about improving it. The so-called intellect vals figures as the leaders of the various reform parties do not possess the affectionate conf- |*dence or even the admiring respect of the

people at large. Professors, however learned: and able, do not lead great popular movements, and as yet there is no one else to land;
