tD'eeA"Vous ohhkdLlne.I
The scene at the Botallack Works used
TO be absolutely unique, and a remarkable
instance Of the facility with which man
may familiarlze himself with danger i'm thu
pursuit OF wealth or IN the struggle for
existence. The entrance 10 the Botallack
was On the face OF some Of the boldest preci-
pieces that are TO be found ON the wild
northern coasts OF the country. Looking
upward from the strip OF beach beneath.
You saw dwarfed human beings like trains
OF ants, swarming upon the least accessible
foot-tracks and lodges. Barrows laden
with blocks OF ore were being wheeled
over the single plank bridges that spanno,l
b0ttomiess abysses.. When the men
knocked of from work for relaxation
they smoked their pipes and took their
midday meal on prOmontory slopiiig IN
the rollers that broke many hundred feet
below. And the curious visitor, without
the constitutional imperturbability OF
the natives, had to accept trying share of
the risk. He made his way downward from
the crest OF the cliff TO the opening OF the shaft
by something like q goat track that was dan.
ger0us In wet weather. AT the mouth of
the pit, having produced his credentials,
be was equipped In complete mining eos
,ume, and surely never was that
Isryiceable but unbecoming dress more
necessary. For the descent was by
succession OF perpendicular lad

Death and Burial In Moscow
From the Pau.Mall Gazette
Chambers Journal

In Moscow, as in other parts Of Russia.
dlssenters are met with, and among them
we have the "Old Believers" who con-
duct their worship according to the rites
OF the ancient Greek Church, not admit
ting the various changes adopted by Neon
and others and now carried out in the
Russian Greek Church. These dissent
ers 20 TO great expense whenever death
enters their dwellings; and Just now
March, 1SS3-'hcrc has been in Mos
cow a very important example OF
this fact. In Russian merchants
family in that city, consisting Of
father, mother, two manageable daugh-
tiers, and one son, the eldest daughter,
about twenty years OF age. has just died.
and an outline Of the proceedings conse-
quent thereon will be interesting. Ger

preparations were made for the burial.

among the living for more than twenty-four
hours. The coffin was made OF thin boards,
but covered with silk velvet, having Hall
marked silver handles, and "cOffin fllrni-
ture" costing over 1000 rilbles (ElOO);
and in the hands OF the corpse was placed
small painting OF the Virgin having q
silver frame and covering, costing another
fI0O, and which became the property of
the church where the funeral prayers were
recited at burial. The body was dressed
as a bridc-she had become the bride Of
Heaven; and these robes and the dressing
involved, the first G200 and the latter Jel00.
First, she was dressed in fine linen che
mise trimmed with costly lace; over this
a chemisette, and then n short tunic i'm
white satin, embroidered with gold and
silver thread, called q Sdrdfdn. Then the
head-dress was the usual Russian hat with
pearls. But the greatest expenses were
incurred in prayers and masses. In forty
churches OF the city OF Moscow prayers
were ordered to be said for her, morning
and evening, for forty days, for which
10, 900 rubles were charged, or ut the rate
OF los. per service-E1,600 being paid for
1920 services and ut each service
some one attended and distributed bread
and aims to the poor, the bread
being 10 each person Cdtdtch, some
thing more than penny loaf. Such
loaves were also sent for forty days
to all the prisoners in Moscow. For seve-
raj days in the baZaars the bakers were au-
thorized to distribute bread to all poor
people applying who asked for II in the
name Of the dead girl and engaged to pray
for her. But even this dld not suffice. TO
other cities OF Russia, and also to cities such
as Vienna, Pesth, Athens, where churches
Of the sect exist, money was sent and
prayers ordered to be said for forty days.
The funeral took place in the church
OF the well-known Holy Cemetery OF
RagOshka, where only Old Believers
are buried and where a wooden building
was put up capable OF dining $50 guests
the leading members OF the sect around
Moscow. The dinner was served from the
leading hotel in Moscow, at n cost OF about
16S. per person, to which the expense Of
the fruit and wine had to be added. The
fruit in Russia IN early spring costing
fabulous prices. Ii l. calculated by some
Of the most intimate friends OF the family
known to the writer that a sum OF not less
than C10,000 was spent over the ceremony,
and none Of the coreligiOnists look upon
this rs ut all eXtrayagant.

Modern Steamers.
Is THE LIMIT OF SAFETY IN LOADING THE'
RFACUEDi
from the Nautical Mapazine.I

From the Nautical MaPazinc.l
There is one thing that we know, or
should have learned from the vast eXpc-
rlence OF the last ten or twenty years-an
experience. perhaps, as gloomy and unsat-
isfactOry as ii has been raSh-that the ma
joritV OF &" cargo steamers" aS at present
constructed and sent TO sea, have already
long since-reached the limit of safety in
loadirg; If, indeed, MANY of them have not
got much beyond il. II this be not so, how
! nre we TO account for the great number
| Of such vessels which annually diSap-
pear? There is, surely, unmistakablc
evidence TO prove that something is wrong
somewhere, for many Of them are compare
lively new ships. After two long centu-
ries OF experience of all kinds Of ships,
and over all seas, vanished school Of able
and sagacious seamcn laid il down that a
good ship, fairly loaded and ably command
ed, will live i'm any storm-eXcepting per-
haps, cyclones and hurricanes, and the ac-
cidents which they engender-she posi-
tivelE cannot sink, but is as certain to ride
over those great rolling mountains Of seetl-
ing water as well-buit church is OF stand
ing on its foundation.
1t is great mistake to suppose, as some
ship-builders really do, that because a ship
Is big no heavy seas will ever run on
| board. In consequence Of this fallacy they
| take all manner of liberties in designs and
constructions. Ii is difficult to believe
there are such opinions in such quarters,
yet it is so, Notwithstanding. There is
doubtless less science imported into ship
| building now than in former times, when
iron for such work was a novelty,
and when the worthy blacksmith,
though occupying an indisputable po-
sitiOn, played only second fiddle III the
symphony; but the mercst riyeter should
understand that the long, low steamers
which are now turned out of the building
yards are the wettest and, in too many
cases. the most dangerous ships which ever
PIT to sea. A great ocean wave, however
| high or fast il may run, will lift up bodily
any small ship or boat, but not so some
400-fOoter; and, rs a matter of course, if
it cannot lift, must run over some part OF
her. Allowing such n wave TO run at
thirty-tive miles an hour, and great
part Of its crest, say twcnty-f five tons Of
water, TO Oyerwhelm her decks, we have at
once u force equal to the charge of loco
motive against everything in the shape OF
an obstruction to its course. Yet il is COM
mon to see such ships putting to see with
all kinds OF trumpery ana feeble fittings
such as obtained in hgh-sided ships OF fifty
years back-feeble, il should be said, in re-
lafion to the amount of freeboard or bad
weather to be encountered. and afterward

"terrilic weather and fearful damage"

The Peels.
IAN the Year Round /

Old Robert Peel, q farmer IN the Fish
lane, "a tall, robust man, whose ordinary
garb included calI-skin waistcoat and
woOden-soled clogs. hair grizzly, of Il red
dish color" This at forty or so, when still
obscure. In later and more prosperous
days at Burton-On-Trent, where he had set
up print-works, he wore bushy John
s0nian wig, and carried gold
headed cane. The Peels had not So
much to do with spinning cotton and
weaving as with printing calicoes-done
In rough way at first with wooden blocks.
Nancy Peel, the daughter. making almost
the first success with a sprig of parsley
cullcd from the garden, the pattern rildely
scratched on the back Of an ealthenware
plate. A neighbor Of old Robert was
Yates, of The Black Bull, and the two put
their heads and purses together and
started calico-printing. And at The Black
Bull was daughter named Ellen, pretty
little thing in those days. whom young
Robert Peel, grave and persevering
youth, would take on his knee and call his
little wife. Years after, when Peels and
Yateses were rich, and little Ellen a fine.
dashing, accomplished girl, Robert Peel
came back to his first love as a wooer, and
they were married, and q son OF these two
was the Sir Robert Peel whom people
know about. There Is an old Lancashire
proverb. or prophecy, perhaps it nay be
called, "lts only three generations from
clogs to clogs" And some have seen a
Kind OF general application in the saying,
ioretelling not only the fate OF particular
families. but the destiny OF the very indus
Try itself. And as yet scarcely three gene
rations have passed away since the homely
weaver In his apron and clogs were driven
out OF the field, clogs superseded by cranks,
as the pOwer-loom came into use-looms
driven first of all by water-power. some
times, indeed. by horses, or even donkeys
and ut first taken up not 10y practical men,
but by such unlikely people as Cave. OF the
Genttemdn's Magazine, and DR.. James. the
inventor OF the fever-powders. A local
bard alludes to these attempts:
"Concerning looms from Doncasier,
Aud weyvin' done by wayier."
Indeed, practical men were little shy of
operations which were naturally
viewed with intense disfav0r by large
section OF the population. One Of the chief
inventors OF the power-loom, as practically
