New Temple at Moscow.

tParisian.l
The Khram Spaseetel or Temple Of
Our Saviour, at Moscow, is now rapidly
approaching completion. The building
was begun 50 far back as 1888, and was
designed in commemoration of the
French expulsion from Moscow. Nearly
four thousand laborers, for month, were
employed in digging out the ground for
the foundations and considerable energy
was displayed in building the base; but
after while operations languished, and
the work has gone on by fits and starts,
until it has now reached stage when
the architect can promise its completion
next August, in readiness for the twen-
ty-ffth anniversary of the Emperors
coronation. s.a
The height of the structure is two hun
dred and eighty-eight feet, and the style
of architecture is the Russo Byzantine,
the building being in the form of a
Greek cross, surmounted by five cupolas,
one at each corner and a large one, or
dome, in the center. The roof and the
framework of the cupolas weigh eighteen
hundred tons, and the gliding on the lat
ter has already consumed more than half
ton OF gold leaf. Above the center Gu
palo is massive bronze cross, which can
be seen from every part of Moscow. The
bronze frames Of the windows, each nine
yards high, weigh nearly three tons, and
the hinges of the bronze doors have to
support five and one-quarter tons of
metal Inside, the walls are gorgeously
decorated in the usual style Of Russian
churches, and contain number of Jas
per pillars, each Of which cost upward of
$4,000.
The total cost Of this wonderful build
ing is estimated to exceed 20,00O,0O0
rubles, or E2,500,000. But this is not
all. Recently the architect reported that
block Of houses in proximity to the
temple was detrimental to one Of the as
poets, and, as a mere matter of course,
the Synod voted 100000 to demolish
the buildings and to construct in their
place terrace. 1t must not be forgot
ten that this is the second great Cathe-
dral which Russia has raised during the
last sixty years, the famous one of st.
Isaac's, in st. Petersburg, having been
begun in 1919, and consecrated in 1853,
after an expenditure of 36,O00,0 900 ru-
bles, or f4,500,000. A third cathedral,
not quite SO large, is also rising at Mini
Novgnrod, and will involve an outlay Of
92, 000, 900 before completion. q

The Duke of POrtland'A Property.
... London TRUTH

The late Duke of Portland's real and
personal estate was (roughly) as follows:
His Welbeck property was worth 955, 900
per annum, and he derived Gl0,000 per
annum from the royalties on coal-pit.
This property, however, contains coal
which, if worked, would bring in, on an
estimate made few years ago, above
100000 per annum. Besides this, a
portion Of it, which is now let for agri-
cultural purposes, is close by Noting
ham, and might be Teton building leases
His Northumberland property was worth
f12,00o per annum. A great portion OF
this was derived from what are locally
called "way leaves;". that is to say, tolls
for the right Of hauling coal over roads.
In Caithness he had property worth
$4,000 per annum.
He had originally bought an estate
there for 100000, and he had, by subse.
quent purchases ip the same county, ex.
pended as much more. He had a lease
Of his house in Cavendish Square, which
has still about 80 years to run. In Lon
don, his freehold property was worth
about 100000 per annum, and Ayrshire
he possessed estates worth 100000 pei
annum. Besides this he had about
91 100000 invested in good securities
and there was 9110,000 at his banker
when he died. By the will of his grand
father, General Scott, the London free
hold property passes to the three sister
of the Duke, Lady Qssulton, Lady Har
riet Benfck, and Lady Howard de Wal
den. All the rest OF the property, rea
and personal, with the exception of thu
balance at the bankers, goes under 6
stringent entail and settlement.

A Hint TO Dram Drinkers.

Barkcepers pay, on an average, 50
per gallon for whisky. One gallon
contains an average of sixty-fivc
drinks, and at ten cents drink the
poor man pays $3.50 per gallon for his
whisky. In other words, he paws So
for the whisky and $3.50 to man for
handing it over the bar. While il
would be better for all not TO drink.
some men will have whisky, and my
advice to them is this: Make your
wife your barkccpcr. Lend her 81 TO
buy gallon of whisky for beginning
and every time you want a drink go to
her and pay ten cents for it. BY the
time you have drank gallon she will
have 5000, or enough money TO refund
the g borrowed Of you, to pay for an
other gallon of liquor, and have bal
ance of $3.50. She will be able 10 con-
duct future operations on her own cap
ital, and when you become an inebri-
ate, unable TO support yourself, shun-
ned and despiscd by respectable people,
your wife will have enough money to
keep you until You get ready to fill a
drunkard's grave. But had YOU paid
all this money to a barkeeper, he would
not have given cent to bury you, or n
crust OF bread to keep your children
from starving.
Few people ever stop to calculate the
cost of dram-drinking. At ten cents
per drink, one drink per day will
cost $500 per year; two drinks
per day will cost $40; three drinks,
$1,000, and four drinks STAG per year.
a man came to me the other dav to
pay the interest on a note of 500 !
hold against him. Said he, 81 only re-
ccive 5000 year and with a family to
support am not able to pay my debts"
asked him TO take pencil and make
a slight calculation for me, and then
asked him how often he drank at the
bar. His average was three drinks per
day, which by his own calculation
amounted TO $50, or enough to have
paid both principal and interest of the
note and have $3.50 left. He was as
tonished at the discovery, and is now
determined never to drink at bar
again [Campbell's Lecture at Mans
field, Kentucky.

A Universal Curse.

There is no civilized nation OH the
face of the globe that does not surround
the liqnor traffic with precautions and
subject II to conditions peculiar TO itself.
II is thing that cannot be allowed TO
regulate itself. And even where the
attempt is made to regulate il best, II
makes for itself always bad name.
Tho liquor traffic will damage the best
community in which ii can be located.
Open place for the sale of strong
drinks in the most quiet and orderly
neighborhood, even in a quiet country
town, and soon You will see the bad re-
suits. The establishment will have its
customers. Those customers will drink
to excess. Young men will become
dissipated. There will be carousals
and disturbances, and the business will
become curse 10 the community.
This ideal traffic, where there shall be
no drunken men and no damage, and
only where well behaved people shall
ever patronize the bar, is the purest
fiction. There is no such a thing.
There never was and never will be.
And, whatever you may say in its de-
Tense, the American people do not re-
gard liquor selling us respectable
business. -lSelected.

Two Tragedies In Milton last Friday

Another Man Killed by the Cars.
The Burlington Free Press gives tho
following account of these affairs
The stirring town of Milton was the
scene, Friday and Friday night, of two
dreadful tragedies, involving the lives
of two human beings, one by his own
hand and the other through circumstan-
ces induced by the use of intoxicating
liquor. The first shot himself through
the head with his revolver, and the
second was killed by the cars, under
the following circumstances The name
of the unfortunate man was Pbilip
Pippin. On Friday night he attended
II mcrrymaking at the house of neigh
Dor at the lower part of the village, and
at late hour, when the party broke
mp, started Tor home, walking on the
rlilroad track, as that was the shortest
way-and this proved the last time his
friends were ever TO see him alive. AS

hut il was too late, tho locomotive and
cars passed over tho hapless mans
body, mangling il in frightful man
her and of course causing instant death.
Both legs were cnt of close to the body,
his arms were broken and his face
crushed in. An inquiry revealed the
fact that the man so suddenly summon
ed into the presence of his maker under
such dreadful circumstances was Philip
Pippin. lie had undoubtedly made
such free use of Intoxicating liquor thai
he was unable to walk any great dis
lance and had in his stupor lain down
upon the track, there to meet such a
violent death. Pippin was about ~
years of age and was unmarried. lie

Joseph Mason, living in the south
part of the same village, had had con-
siderable tronble with his wife, the
couple living together very inharmoni-
ously. Finally she abandoned him, a
short time since, and took up her abode
in the house of "A neighbor. On Friday
Mason went TO the place and had an in
lerview with his wife, endeavoring to
persuade her To return and live with
him again. This she utterly refused to
do; ard finally after repeated urgings
and pei sua ions, Mason at about one
o'clock in the afternoon left the house.
After getting out into the road he drew
