The Russian Torture.

Gen MelikofT commaDdant OF st. Peter

reIorted by the cable dispatches as having

q have been part OF Gen. MeliSoff's duty to
effort from the prisoners confessions not only

WHO were concerned with them In their as.
saults upon the life Of the late Gar. He was

human devices that history describes as having
Teen applied for similar purposes In the past
NoTc cruel enough for this military savage.
With an ingenuity that would do credit to his
Satanic majesty General Melikof invented
form or torture by electricity, which inficts
upon The human body all the agonizing pains
~ The rack, the wheel and fire at one time. The

She Washed on a Sunday,

He only whispered to a lady friend who
sat beside him in church, but it cost con-
siderable trouble.
''There comes Mr.. Proud's wife Do
you know she washes on Sunday? I've
seen her doIt," is what he SAID.
Heavens! Can it be possible Z" said
the lady.
''Yes. but please don't say anything
about it.
She didn't.
In exactly seven days by the clock every
body in church knew it 1t came to the
ears of MIR. Pround, and he sat about tra-
cling the story to its origin. Mrs. Proud was
being snubbed by nearly everybody in the
congregation. Even the minister forgot
to take off his hat when hepassed her in
the street..
There was some talk of dropping Mrs.
Proud's name from the roll of church nleIn-
bership.
Mr.. Proud became furious. He went
around town with pistol IN his pocket.
He finally found the lady who had start
ed the report, and asked her who her in
formant was. She referred him to the
gentleman who mentioned it to her in
church. MIR. Proud jsmmed his hat over
his eyes and sought the mlscreant.
'.DId you say that my wife washed on
Sunday ~ asked MIR. Proud, with murder
in his eye.
Certainly" responded the man, with
out moving muscle.

Tom Gains was what you call a swift
witness. When Tom was for fellow he
was for him all over, and he was so friend
ly and coniding the Judge did not know
what to do with him. Last court, Lawyer
Braham put Tom upon the stand to prove
that a drunken man couldn't remember
what he did when he was drunk. Tom had
taken two drains that morning and was
feeling splendid. He swore straight out
that he couldn't.
The Judge didn't Ike that. He didn't
like witnesses who were so willing and IA
miliar, and SO he put a few questions to
Tom from the bench.
''Alr. Gains, weren't you drunk yester-
dayl" Sunday.
They say / was, your Honor.
''And you don't remember itl"
''lt's sOrter like dream, your Honor;
but was awfully sick last night
slow are you now, Mr.. Gainsi'
81 am tolerably well, l thank you,
Judge, how do you do yourselfl' and Tom
bowed humbly, foT he thought the Judge
was kindly inquiring after mis- health.
When the Sheriff had quieted the gen.
eral hllarity, the Judge said:
'.Now Mr.. Gains you were drunk yes
terday, which was Sunday. Now where
did you find your whisky"
sin the jug, Judge-right IN the Jug"
''Well, sir, where was the jugf'

and If your honor ever passes that way, it's

'.AIr. Gains, you can retire, sir. | be-
lieve you are the same man who about
thirty years ago testified in this court
house that Jim Wilkins bit his own ear

forgot what you told me, and L s'pose l
did swear that Wilkins bit his ear oil him
self; and it wasn't so unreasonable no how,
for he had the awfullest mouth that ever
was seed-didn't he Judgei"

gentlemen who are so hilarious. I'll sec

he brought his umbrella down on the top
of her head; ''she wants the whole street
to get around in, and she tired to shove me
in the snow bank"
''Why couldn't he stand up there on
that lump instead st making me walk
through the water, and me a woman, and
clipped him under the jaw with dexerity

"A man ought, to always give way to a

''Of course he ought, conceded the wo-
man, smashing her opponents hat over his

of mans spirit, he'd waited for me to
