BSgEJ ,sF PfF THE PITTSBURG. . DISPATCH, MONDAY, JANUARY; 1889. 3 A RTJSSIM REFUGEE. Mr. Colin, a Besident of Allegheny Tells About Nihilism AND THE DESPOTISM IT AIMED AT. Assassination of Hijh Tyrannical Poten tates, and Its Meaning. O.NE BRA YE GIEL WHO WAS LIBERATED Mr. T. Colin, a Russian refugee who lives in Allegheny, wrote a letter to The DIS PATCH a few days since, intimating that he would be willing to furnish au interesting article about the conditions, customs and sundry peculiarities of Russia, which might afford instructive reading to the gen eral public Accordingly a reporter went to see Mr. Colin yesterday, and, during -a very extended conversation, Nihilism and its followers served as an interesting sub ject. Mr. Colin is an adherent to the cause himself, although he does not like to be called a Nihilist. He said: The people, who are Indentifled with that name, are really a very peaceful-minded class of citizens; but their enemies have called them N ihilists more f or a nickname than anything else. In America, for instance, I do not believe that Nihilism is at all understood; for, if it were, the American, instead of associating us with murderers, cutthroats and foul conspira tors, would sympathize with us, because the fact is simrly this: The Nihilist is merely an apostle of republicanism; and the very form of liberty and democratic government which we enjoy in this country, tho Nihilists are endeav oring to introduce into Russia, to take the place of despotism, tyranny and slavery, which exist there now. Let me give you a synopsis of the history of that class of people, and then let j our readers judge for themselves. The being which a tyranical Government calls a Nihilist does not in reality exist in Rus sia any more. We call ourselves Radicals. The Ideal Nihilist you have heard of is an unbe liever in everything existing. Ho wants to up root the government, overturn religion, change all social relations and the economic cons trac tion of the country. Well, such a being was represented by a few scatterbrained individ uals, who were the extreme fanatics in a really good cause. To explain myself better, it is necessary for me to say that the intellectual faculties of the Russians HAVE MADE BAMD STRIDES during the last SO years. They became more intelligent by edncatlon. of course, and this font of knowledge made a few men vain enough to think that everything in this world was wrong. From those men came the Ni hilists; but they .did not last long. How ever, the general distribution of knowledge caused everybody to think, and a nat ural result was that the people gained the conviction that they should be free, men. and were not deserving of being treated like slaves. They felt that they were treated with restrictions by the despotic rule of the Russian Government, which were not compati ble with the free-born spirit of man. Hence the people of our country organized them selves for the purpose of curtailing the iron constitution and the supreme will of the Czar. A political party sprang into existence, whose alms were the introdnction of greater liberty tn the individual, and the abolition of arbitrary government and personal restriction. Those are the aims of the Russian Radical or, as he is wrongly called. Nihilist of to-day. It was in 1S74 that men of superior intelli cence went all through the vast country of Russia and preached to the people about their rights. They told them that the power to govern the land really belonged to them, and that, instead of the Czar owning the country, it ought to be their own, governed in such manner as they chose. The consequence was that the party soon grew. There were aristocrats, tradesmen, mechanics peasants and artisans enrolled among the Radicals, and steps wero taken to induce the Government to change sundry laws and forms in the constitution for the benefit of the population. It was the era of peaceful propaganda and the commencement of what is calledNihilism .r. But, peaceful as the propaganda was, the Government could not allow it to disseminate among the people, and a crusade was at once inaugurated against anybody who openly avow ed himself to be a Radical, or against him who was only suspected of being a Radical. The persons were immediately punished, exile or Siberia being the usual t-entence. Exile meant a change of residence and associations; Eiberia explains itself. A SYSTEM OP ESPIONAGE. The Government introduced a system of "es pionage." Men pretending to be Radicals were gome through the country, and while they os tensibly glorified in the dawn cf an era of lib erty, they quietly informed against the Radi cals wherever they were found. This system of persecution on the part of the Government naturally exasperated the people. It was not unusual to see mothers, fathers, sisters, brothers, etc, separated and thrown into prison. Here, of course they were tiven Into the hands of Government officials, and these minions of the law, who were nothing if not the tools of the tyrants who oppressed the people, treated the political prisoners with despotic ana innmnan severity. The consequence was that the people aroused in utter indignation against their fiendish foes and murders took place In 1875 a spy was killed in Odessa, and in the follow ing year Trepof, the Governor of St. Peters burg, was snot by Vera Zasulitch, a young girl. The facts of the last case are simply these Trepof had maltreated a man named Iiogolubof in a prison It caused a terrible excitement among the people, but nobody seemed to have the nerve to get redress and reveuge from the governor. At last Vera Zasulitch came forth, and shot at the governor in his own office. The girl was, of course, arrested: but, in spite of the evidence against her. the jury ac quitted her. She was set free, but t'ie government was after her, and. liaditnot been for the interference of her friends, n ho got her out of the country, she vould, probably, have been sent to Siberia am how, and to-day she lives in Switzerland. The stand which the jury took in that case showed the Government how the people thought on the subject, and they introduced greater rigors and more stringent measures against the Radicals. The Government and the Radicals grew more and more incensed against one another, and, for the next year or so.it was open war between the two parties. A CLIJIACTEEIC MOVE. Finally, in 18S7, the Radicals called a con gress at Lipetzk, in South Rnssia, and it was there decided to assume an aggressive policy against the government, simply as a matter of self defense. Then the government instituted capital pun ishment against all political offenders, and the blood of many true and noble Russians flowed after that. The government also invested the officials with greater executive power, and they all distinguished themselves bv their heartless ness and cruelty. But all this barbaiity had not the desired effect. The people grevr more incensed, and Radicalism grew more and more, until it culminated in the cons'iirary which re sulted in the assassination sf Alexander IL This opened the Government's eves, and Louis Melikoff was called to the head of the army. But even he failed. Then, when the present Emperor came to tho throne, the Radicals congratulated themselves that things looked better for them, because the voung monarch promised them all kinds of things immediately after his accession to power. But his promises were all idle words, and to-day there is not a man's life more un certain than thexistcnce of Alexander IIL You must not think that the Radical party of Russia is an organized bodv. No! Such a thmg could not exist tinder the argns eve of the watchlul Government and police of Rus sia But conspiracies are constantly being formed, and tho day will come when the head of the present monarch will fall, or else a gov ernment will be introduced into Russia which will give the poor man the right which was in culcated in him by his Creator, who did not make any man to be a slave.

Lamps Ilave Once More Become Fashion nble In Flttsbnrc. According to the statement of a promi nent dealer in decorative household objects there are more lamps in use in this city now than there has ever been before. It has be come fashionable to light up the entire household with fancy lamps, and in many palatial residences in the bon ton portion of the city this method of illumination can be seen nightly. All Borts of devices are used, and they are at once novel, ingenious and artistic In the parlor window of a handsome house in the East End, there may be seen a beautiful stork standing upon one leg, with its head held aloft in delicious conceit, while from its partly opened bill there beams a bril liant light which is given a roseate hue by a daintily slained globe of crimson. In the upper portion of the house the lamps are more simple in construction, but bear the impress of testhetic art Most of these are in the form of fairy lamps covered with parti-colored globes representing "beehives, and here and there on these globes may be seen a tiny bee oi black glass. In the halls are lamps of crude iron with quaint-looking curves and angles; also one or two in brass repousse work. When illuminated the structure presents a magnificent appear ance. THE LAST IMPKESSITE KITES. Sad Hotel Men Look for the Last Time on the Face of Sam Jone. The funeral services over the bodyof Sam Jones were held at his rooms, 720 Penn ave nue, yesterday afternoon. The house was filled with the friends of the dead clerk, who feel the loss of his genial presence keenly.

TheRev. J. H. Robinson, of Allegheny, who knew Mr. Jones from boyhood, spoke of his kindness oi heart, his gentlemanly manners and his sunny disposition.
