'o the Editor of the "Noxri-Cuixa Dairy News."
Sir,—Zv avoid any possible ridings and mis-we beg through of your esteem-w bring two public knowledge. that we the—editors and publishers of the Russian week Ix, which appeared until now under the name "The Students Gazette" wand with our next issue shall appear under the name of Vocvie Slovo" (in Russian) and "The New Word" (in its English section), have nothing in common with a body which calls itself "The Russian Students Union."
Our aims, as in the beginning, are to help those Russian students and emigrants, who are willing to work for their living, and who use all their force to avoid dependency on public charity. Such. workers have formerly received assistance from us whenever we had the possibility to offer help. and it is true we have done so on several occasions through the medium of the departed Presidents of Russian students. Messrs. Blumenthal and_bekkarevitch.
With the departure of the above named gentlemen all our contion with the Students' Union ased, and our help shall be directed! in the future to direct deserving cases. At present in the work of our young weekly are ti " part, and earning their modest living, over 20 young men and women, and we expect that in the future this number will grow.
Enclosing you a copy of our last, number, No. 16, we shall be pleased and very much obliged if you would care to mention it in your esteemed Paper.
We are, ete.
