I had no sooner done so than I re-
membered that I didn't even know what

lady herself opened the door and put IN
end to my embarrassment on this score,
but increased my embarrassment on a
thousand other scores.
l told the whole story, putting the
blame exactly where it belonged. She
never said a word during the recital, but
sat there with that straight-ahead look
in her eyes and I half doubted whether
she paid any attention to what I said.
She bowed me out without a word
and I went home more depressed than
ever. After thinking the matter over I
resolved to 60 to our employer and lay
the whole case before him, in spite of
what Denmark had said, and by assum-
ing the whole blame, as of course 7
ought to do, and accepting my dis

books, came down and the complaint
was withdrawn"
"That was ali" said singlemann with
a sigh.
"But the girl" said 7, "did you

amusing account of the way IN which Rus
sian Solomon treated fish women who came
to blows: He knew that preaching would
be of no use whatever where the hearers
were two women, who were cursing one an
other at the rate of 120 words minute
and who were only prevented
from tearing one anothers faces
by the strong arm of the police.
You must be locked in one aud the same
cell until you have kissed each other"
This was invariably the sentence of
the new magistrate in every case of female
broil which was brought before him. He
knew that although kissing one another Is a
habit with male Russians, it is not so with
the women of Muscovy, least of all with the
hshwives. The women were hurried of; rallied
for time louder than ever; protested that
they would die sooner than give this humil-
itating sign of recognition; and, then,
after few hours confinement, called the
jailor and informed him that they had
kissed. They were informed that they must
repeat the kiss publicly in the open market
place. A small fine was taken from each,
and they were compelled, in the midst of
their sisters in trade, to kiss each other three
times

Shared by a personal,

A newspaper came as package wrapper
into farm house near Cleveland, o., says
the st. Louis Republican. 1t was very in
nocent looking sheet, but was full of buzz
and hum of the great world outside of this
secluded farm. Clara, an 1S-ysar-old
daughter of the house, was charmed with
it-charmed with its column of personal adj
vertisements. They we're new to her, if
newspaper was not entirely new.
She had never seen such conf
dental communications made public
before. She was fascinated with the romance
of such method of acquaintanceshIp as it
prescribed. One young man of easy means,
living in city, wanted to make the acquaint-
ance of live country girl, through CORE
spondence. 1t was just to have little fun
that was all. Clara thought she filled the
conditions of lively country girl, and
wrote. He wrote; his letter looked right.
1t was fair writing; all modesty and good
breeding. 1t was delightful to Clara to
have city correspondent, nice young man
whom she had never seen, but already
admired for his penmanship and senti-
ments. Besides he told her in his first letter
that he had received a hundred answers to
his advertisement but had singled hers out
as the only one to which he made reply.
This was hattering to her. She knew no
better than to believe it, and her own girlish
vanity helped to snare her. OF all this
Clara's parents knew nothing for some time.
At length he wanted a meeting and she told
the old I0lks now she mad Deen amusing her
self. A meeting could do no harm,
she thought, it was all pure fun.
Her parents thought differently,
but, through her earnest solic-
itations, they at length consented and
Clara and her correspondent met. She
thought his person as fine as his writing and
as noble as his sentiments. He loved she
loved. but the parents they did not love.
The young fellow was too fiashily dressed
to suit them-plain country people, as they
were. He was too loud for the modest scope
of farm house. But at length the old folks
gave way to an engagement ard in a short
time there was marriage In that house and
| the flower of the farm left for the city a
| happy bride. Her romance had become re-
| atty. What money the old folks could
! scrape together went with her to make easy
| the beginnings of life. In less than two
months the girl returned to her country
| home with a look of 20 years more age and
experience stamped on her face. She had
lived long life in two short months. He
| did not turn out to be what she expected.
He was a gambler, and luck was against
him. She thought he was broker, and the
deception broke her heart He spent all her
dowry and pawned her extra clothes, and
| then she was forced to return to her parents
| for something to eat. That's what came of
| the fun of answering q personal addressed
to any lively country girl.

clared thatGod was dead and hell had begun

The horrors of the time were further
heightened by cruel prosecutions against the
Jews. who had been accused of poisoning
the public wells, this being in popular be-
lief the cause of the pestilence. The people
rose in mad fury to exterminate the unfor-
tunate Hebrew race, and slaughtered them
by tens OF Thousands. In the uncomfortable
city of Mentz Germany alone, near 5000
fell victims to the public wrath. They were
killed with steel aud club, hanged, drowned,
burned, and often barbarously put to death
by every kind of torture. In numberless
instances they took their own lives in masses
to avoid cruelties of the mob, and in many
communities every man, woman and child
was sacrificed ID insensate rage. To aggravate
the scourge, the panic about poison
caused the wells to be closed. The people
were afraid to touch water, and those who
escaped the plague persisted of thirst and
terror. Society, rude at best in that day,
was totally disorganized, and such means as
might have been adopted to prevent or nit
igate the stupendous evil were either neg
iected or unthought OF, in the arrangement
and frenzy that possessed everybody, from
the highest to the lowest The influence of
the plague and its desolation were SO over
honesty and principle among its survivors.
Many were rendered callous, and many took
advantage of the universal horror to indulge
their worst passions, to plumber, murder
and perpetrate the most revolving crimes.

The Centennial Derby.

The Derby has probably done more to cement and establish the turf in Eng land than any other race. It is the one race that all breeders, owners and jockeys want to win. They may have won the Guineas, St. Leger and Oaks time and again, but without the Derby as keystone to the arch of triumph the other events are but secondary honors. In this respect the success of George Fordham, the rider of the winner, Sir Bevys was completed. Fordham has been on the turf for nearly twenty-five years and had ridden the winner of ev cry important race in the kingdom, but time and time again he had been beaten for the Derby. Last year, when he was so ill that he had to retire from the turf, it was regretted by all that he could not claim the Derby. Last winter he took up his residence in France, owing to bad health. In the spring he returned to England and rode at some of the early meetings, only to be again forced to re- tire. He was not seen during the Sec ond Newmarket spring meeting, and ac- cording to the last advices he could have only returned to England few days ago j; therefore to ride the winner of the Derby, and the Centennial Derby at that, is D fitting honor to a career which can be truly said to have been without reproach
 The Derby as a race was first run on the 4th of May, 1790, having been instituted by the twelfth Earl of Derby as a south ern offset to the great northern race at Doncaster, which was instituted in l776 by Colonel St. Leger. By common con- sent the stakes were called the Derby" by which name it has been known ever since. It obtained thirty-six subscrib- CTS, of which nine started It was then dash of mile, colts carrying I12 pounds and Allies l09. It was won by Sir Charles Bunbury's Diomed, by Florizel, with Major O'Kelly's Burdroo second and MT. Walkers Spitfire third. For some few years the weights and dis tance continued as in the initial race, but eventually the distance was in- creased to a mile and half, the weights being raised to ll8 pounds and 112 pounds. They were subsequently, raised some time during the '.forties to I22 pounds, at which they have remained since-NeaO Y0rk World.

Facts About FlOur.

Flour is peculiarly sensitive to atmos- pheric influences, hence it should never be stored in room with sour liquids, nor where onions or fisa are kept. nor any article that taints the air of the room in which it is stored. Any smell per- ceptible to tie sense will be absorbed by flour. Avoid damp cellars or lofts where free circulation of air cannot be obtained. Keep in cool, dry, airy room, and not exposed to freezing tenn perature nor to intense summer, or to artificial heat for any length of time above seventy to seventy-five degrees. 1t should not come in contact with grain or other substances which are liable to heat. Flour should be sifted and the particles thoroughly disintegrated, and then warmed before baking. This treat ment improves the color and baking properties of the dough. The sponge should be prepared for the oven as soon as the yeast has performed it's mission, otherwise fermentation sets in and acid ity results. Nsller.
