A Caution 10 Travellers.

A reverend divine of this vicinity found
himself in rather an awkward fix the other
day. He and a lay triendwere riding along
one of the fine beaches near Swamscott,
when tempted by the retirement of the
place. and the excellent chance for bathing,
having their bathing colthes with them,
they stopped and prepared themselves for
the water. Trusting to the quiet habits OF
their horse, they placed their clothing in
the carriage. and leaving all on the beach,
made their way into the surf They had
hardly time to congratulate themselves on
their fine mprovised bath. when to their
utter CONSERVATION their quiet horse was
seen making off with their clothing; and
" hat was worst of all, going directly to.
wards the village! There was no help at
hand. and there was nothing for them to do
but for one of them to run for the horse.
This the lay brother did with will and
after long stern.chase Of about mile, ju
before the village was reached. overlook
the runaway horse, and joyfully turned his
head toward the beach again, to relieve the
poor divine from his watery Imprisonment.
He was found covering under the water,
chilled with his prolonged bath, and in
state Of delightfuluncertain'y how he should
ever get into his clerical clothes a.ain.
The return oil his friend with the where
wi,hal 10 clothe him, was most joyfully
hailed; and we have no doubt our clerical
friend adopted on the spot the army maxim
never again to be separated from his bag

ALEXANDER ia distinguishei Russian
gentleman in New York has furnished the
Mirror some facts in regard to the present
occupant Of the Russian throne, from which
We take this extract;
"The new Emperor Of Russia is man of
81 wears, with the look OF Prussian Prince,
more than that of Russian. He fesem-
bles his mother, the sister OF the present
king of Prussia; but, possessing her kind
nature, he lacks the energy OF his father,
and il free from Nicholas desp0tc instincts.
He was brought up by joukoosky, the Rus
sian poet of u classical style, who transla-
ted the Had and Oiyssey-a man Of great
intellect and honorable feelings. Alexan-
der grew up with the brothers Adtenberg,
one Of whom was lately slain at Sebastopol,
and with Paskai. He had for his aid de-
camn. in 1889, Paul Golovin, who died after.
wards with the cholera. Jean Seistor was
the chief Of the grand tucal court, and is
very likely to exercise great influence
ever the young Car.
Alexander married in 1910 Princess OF
Darmstadt, a very superior woman, by whom
he has had four children. He always gave
undoubted proofs of his kindness and good
ness Of heart. When a boy he was asked
by his father what he would have done with
the cons orators, five of whom were banged;
he answered that he would have pardoned
them. He also disapprcyed the persecu-
lions against the Poles. and scarcely was
he proclaimed Emperor, before he immor-
tailed himself by the abolition Of extraos-
dinary trials in Poland. and by giving to the
Jews equality Of rights with all other sub
jee,s."

The following anecdote of Horace YER
net is amusing the Parisians, though ! sup

The artist was coming from Versailles to
the city in the cars. In the same compart-
ment with him were two ladies whom he
had never seen before, but who evidently
were acquainted with him. They exam
ined him very infinitely, and commenced
upon him quite freely, upon his martial
bearing, his hale old age, military panta-
looms, &c. The painter was annoyed, and
determined 10 put an end to the persecu-
tons. As the train passed under the tun-
mel of ST, Cloud, the three travellers were
wrapped in complete j rkness. Werner
raised the back of his hand to his mouth
and kissed il twice violently. On emerg-
ing from the obscuri,y he found that the
ladies' had Withdraw their attention from
him, aiii werr accusing each other of hay
ing been kissed by in the dark. As
they arrived at Paris, Vernet, on leaving
them, said, Ladies, / shall he puzzled all
my life by the inquiry, Which OF these two
ladies was il that kissed me?'"

PorAruE R0r.-The Salem Press takes
on after this fashion on the Potatoe Rot:
"This disease is prevailing 10 a fearful
extent in all sections OF the State IGNORE
particularly, however, in the Western part,
where tits said thousands of acres will not
be worth ha ycs,iDg And even in Old
Washington County. which produces the
best quality OF potatoes in the country, the
Rot has commenced, and. in all probability,
will destroy over two-,hirLs Of this import
ant crop"
No other paper has this news. This is
mere croaking. Hardness is no doubt en-
ga gcd. in potatoe speculation. Ii 50, i, is
he that has got "speeked" and not the muir
phies. which are, with few exceptions, as
mealy and sound as nut Troy Times.

involved in this result is said to be near $3OO,OOO
The administrator, DR.. Beekman, has been in pos
session of this estate since 1889, during all which
time the charitable purposes of the testator have
remained unexecuted. By the Judgment of the
court the administrator is now to account for this
large fund, and for the manner in which it has been
employed by him during the long interval within
which the claims of charity have been postponed.
The administrator claimed that the will was void,
in which event one-haf of the estate would fall to
him and his brother, Thomas Beekman, and the
residue to sister of DR.. Barthrop in England, and
the suit now decided was prosecuted upon that
theory, with, as appears, disastrous result.
