The Russian engineer came to Keo kuk from St. Louis where he had been on a mission concerned with supplies. He was on his way back to New York where the Russian com mittee maintains its offices, and stopped over here to see the power plant. Manager C. W. Kellogg ar ranged to show the visitor the plant that evening, and in the morning Prof. Astroff appeared for a daylight inspection of the wonderful works here. When he is at home Monsier As troff is a professor of mechanical en gineering in the Imperial Technical Institute of Moscow. Prof. Astroff is most interesting to talk to. He r.old Mr. Kellogg that the Russian government owns all of the railroads there. The various munici palities own certain other public utili ties. When asked regarding the Russian prohibition, the engineer declared that it actually prohibited. This was because the manufacture of the liquor a government monopoly. When the decree of prohibition was entered, the government of course stopped its manufacture. Thus was prohibition• secured. That it was a wonderful thing for the country, is the belief of the engineer. The Russian visitor considers the Kekouk power plant a most wonder ful structure. He has asked for data and literature concerning it. AMUSEMENTS.
