LIFE AT GORNY STUDEN.

At Gorny Studen every one from the EN-
peror downward keeps under cover, such *
it is Nobody ventures out in the thick
deep mud to do SO is to run the risk Of
| sliding down up to the knees in mire into the
valley on either side of which the village
novels are built His Imperial Majesty oc-
cupies the only house which exists there,
and which was probably the dwelling of some
Turkish official before the war. The Grand
Duke Nicholas and few of his staff are in
stalled in Kirghiz Ribttkas-in round, dome
shape tents made with thick felt laid over
wooden frames, which look quite warm and
comfortable.
The rest of the little camp nestle under
their few yards of saturated canvas, which
swarm with large mice trying to find shelter
or creep into the holes which Nature and the
Bulgarian peasant have provided. The itin-
Grant restaurateur who has bound himself in
writing, much to his regret, to follow the
headquarters wherever it goes and to provide
food in all circumstances and in all weathers,
is in a sad plight. His tented kitchen is al
most washed away, every crust of bread in
the place is moist and mouldy, there is not
dry lucifer match to light ones pipe, and,
to bring things to climax, the last loaf was
being eaten when l left yesterday, as the
difficulties of transport had for time put
stop to the regular supply. A gloom is cast
over everything, and the officers are mostly
in low spirits No sunlight appears through
the thick, heavy clouds, and at o'clock in
the evening it is so dark that it is impossible
to walk dozen yards without a lantern to
light the way and big stick to keep off the
woliish, bowling dogs, which attack unarmed
persons at night with greatest ferocity.
The most disagreeable sight of all is the
hard worked horses, of which there are a
great many at Gorny Studen, standing out
lay and night in the cold rain without cover
Or cloth of any kind. There is not sta

horses are without shelter. There the poor

ormer to be bought. The picture as I have

PHILANTHROPIST AND HIS
TROUBLES.

1t is now nearly eleven years since DR..
Bernardo introduced himself to the London
public as philanthropist. Born in Ireland,
DR.. Bernardo is German by descent. His
philanthropie specially is the London gamin.
From small beginnings his work has grown
into large and until recently prosperous
charity He has Home for poor boys in
Stepney Causeway, and Home for poor
girls at Ilford, containing hundreds of in
mates, and having some of the best known
men in England, such men as the Earl of
Shafteseury, for patrons. In 1874 the gifts
to the two Homes footed up over 800, 900.
Two years ago, unpleasant rumors began to
fly about that the Doctor was making philan-
thropy profitable, and that the children were
ill-treated. An anonymous writer in the
newspapers, "Clericus Junior" he signed
himself, vigorously assailed the Doctors de-
tractors but the unpleasant rumors buzzed
away. Presently the Charity Organization
Society put the Homes on its black list, and
subscriptions at once fell off. DR.. Bernardo
saw that something must be done. His first
step was to hand over the financial manage
ment to board of trustees he had pre-
viously kept it entirely in his own hands.
Next, having conscientious scruples against
libel suits, he proposed court of arbitration,
and the proposition was accepted. But his
refusal to answer a question as to the author
ship of the g Glorious Junior letters led to
the withdrawal of his accuser's counsel from
the room and the case. The arbitrator de-
cided to go on, however, heard what the Doc
tors counsel had to say, and then pro-
judgment. They acquit the Doctor
of dishonesty, but virtually censure him for
undue severity to the children in some cases,
and for improper advertising tricks These
faults corrected, a board of visitors appointed,
and Government inspectors invited, they rec
ommend the Homes as worthy of public con-
fidence and support. The investigation has
been going on for four months, aud has cost
thousands of pounds.

RECLAIMING THE DESERT.

| The Silver State of Monday contains the
nation of certain lands in the Humboldt Val
ley {: ''The Humboldt Development and Irri-
cation Company have undertaken to divert
large part of the waters of the Humboldt on
to the valley on the west side of the river be-
tween Oreana and Browns Station The
Company purchased the Clay & Caufman wa
ter right at Oreana, and are putting sub
stantial dam in the river at that point. Piles
have been driven across the river bed, and the
dam is constructed so as to withstand the
pressure of the highest freshets. The water
will be diverted from the river in a canal 80
feet wide and three or four feet deep. Sub
stantial fumes are being constructed across
ravines and low ground, and tunnel is being
cut through the ridge which runs almost to
the river southwest from the dam. The
works are carried on under the supervision of
Mr.. Merry, noted civil engineer. 1t is ex-
pected that the canal will carry sufficient wa
ter to irrigate all the valuable agricultural
land on the west side of the Humboldt river
in the vicinity of the Big Meadows. An i'm
mense reservoir will be built west of the ridge
through which the tunnel is now being run,
in which sufficient water will be accumulated
when the river is high, to irrigate thousands
of acres in the event of the river running low
during the latter part of the summer. This
canal will enable hundreds of people to make
homes in the lower valley, and make the des
ert literally blossom like the rose.

INDIAN TROUBLES IN THE BLACK
HILLS

Deadwood, D. T., Dec. 3-Many rumors
are in circulation about Indian depredations
on the northern routes, but few can be
traced to reliable sources. On Saturday six
men reached Crook City suffering from expo
sure and want of food. They report that
their camp on the Belle Fourche, about forty
miles from this city, was attacked by band
of more than 200 Indians. The party kept
the Indians at bay for some time, but were
finally forced to abandon their camp, leaving
their horses, mules, camp equipage and
Indians. During the fight three Indians
were killed no whites were injured.

Moses Fl. Grinnell, the protector and ex'

ton which went in search of Sir John Frank
lin recently died in New York. The Sun, in
biographical notice of him says: Mr.. Grin
nell was married in 1926 to Mrs. Susan FL.
Russell, a daughter of Gilbert Russell of New
Bedford, and again in 1886 to Miss Julia Irv-
ing, neice of Washington Irving. We haz-
ard nothing in saying that no man in New
York, of the like means, ever bestowed so
much in public and private charities as Moses
Fl. Grinnell. While Collector of Customs of
this port his kind heart was
panied on hearing how heavily the poorly
paid clerks were taxed for political purposes,
and in one year he paid out of his own purse
the sum of 81 900 to tighten their burdens,
Hundreds of people will mourn his loss to-day
whom he has helped to educate, to cheer, to
keep homes over their heads. He was no
Pharisee he enjoyed life He made others
happy, and he leaves an honest record of
which any man might be proud. The inter
