Therefore marriage must be religiously
legal to be legal at all. A second marriage
places the parties under penance of two
years. Marriage between kindred, how

considered by all Russians as an abomna-

entire Tombs. He orders perfumes by the
box, and every time the soup and hash for
the common criminals is toted past his door

altogether the gayest bit of criminal that
ever lodged in Murderer's row. don't

How that unfortunate wife of his must feel

uncertainties, that poor woman will first
learn that the father of her child is in the

CANINE RAvAGEs ON THE SHEEP
FOLD. Official reports show in Ohio an
annual loss of $3,000,000 in sheep killed
by dogs, and nearly 81 900, 900 in injuries
"a loss equivalent to 100000 pounds of
wool, or tax of two per cent. upon the
total amount invested in sheep in that
State. 1t is said that in two years, from
1868 to 1870, Illinois sank from the sixth
to the ninth rank among the States in the
number and value of its sheep, and this
great falling off is attributed to proper
Tomato increase in the number of dogs, and
the lack of proper legislation to prevent
their ravages among the sheep. The Leg
islature of Maryland is considering the
same subject. The returns from five coun-
ties report over LOO sheep killed in one
year by dogs.

REMARKABLE CAREER OF A VESSEL.
The schooner "vigiant," now plying as a
packet between St. Thomas and st. Croix,
W. l., has had somewhat remarkable ca
reer. She was built at Baltimore in 1900
for the purpose of piracy, and was used in
that business until 1910, when she was
converted into an African slave trader
After being used in this business for sever
al years, she again served as an ocean free
booter until 1927, when she was boarded
by Danish man-of-war, and the entire
crew, with a single exception, it was found
had died of yellow fever. She was then
fitted out as d privateer and so used until
1910, since when she has piled as mer-
chant vessel between the different islands Of
the West Indies.

Marriage In Russia.

A Russian marriage is always n weighty
affair, the ceremony at the church consume
ing at least two hours but that part being
the climax of the happy event, 1t is no wise
considered irksome. Not so, however,
with the preparatory arrangements. The
trousseau and the collecting of household
goods are affairs of serious moment to the
young lady's family. Not only garments
of every description by the dozen are re-
quired, but all manner of crockery, silver
ware and household furniture in the bar
gain. For young couple, as in this coun-
try, to wait until after their marriage to
furnish the house would never be counten-
anced. The bride must bring everything
with her as nearly as she can. Among the
indispensable articles are: the house linen,
kitchen utensils, table services and piano,
and in order to provide these articles, pa
rents of limited means commence from their
girls earliest childhood to lay aside articles
for that purpose, and often long before any
attention whatever has occurred, under
garments are made at odd times and re-
served for the hoped for event.
Among the wealthy the outfit is tremen-
dous, the quantity Of clothing, linen and
table ware being sufficiently large to last
throughout the lady's own life, and give
some of her daughters, when their turn
comes, a comfortable "setting up" The
husband elect. however, contributes his
share in the way OF jewels, ornaments, etc.
After the marriage festivities are over the
young pair retire to their new home, the
chattles following in the numbering wagons
peculiar to the country. Eighteen for the
bridegroom and sixteen for the bride are
the earliest ages at which a couple may be
married, and eighty for a man sixty for q
woman the latest. Fourth marriages arr
not lawful, and third is considered any
thing but proper. To belong to the Ortho
dox church is almost compulsory in Rus
sia, and consequently every act ola Russian'
