The Woman Who Rules Russia.

"Who is now the leading spirit of the
cars governmontp" asked st. Peters
burg correspondent OF the New York
Sun Of high official. "A woman. as
usual" he answered. Like other mo-
narchical countries. we have always had
some woman at the top or bottom Of
our government. Nine. Pobedonostzetf.
the leading spirit Of the Russian govern
ment of to-day, is the wife of the chief
procureur of the holy synod and the
most confidential counselor Of tho car.
She is young. beautiful and ambitious.
She married MIR. PObedonostzeff but u
few years ago. Her husband. very old
gentleman. is in love with her. 1t is
said of him that the knightly motto,
God and My Lady" he changed into
God and My Wife," and upholds it as
devoutly as a knight Of old. He rises
early, prays to God, adores his wife and
then goes to see the czar. or the minis
tiers, or the holy synod. and everywhere
he tries his best to carry out the conf
msnds Of his charming goddess. Mean
while she herself is not idle. She re-
ceives hosts Of fair visitors of high rank,
who, while Offering their homage. seize
the chance of commenting their hns-
bands, brothers, or cousins. Sometimes
this or that minister of state does him
self the honor Of paying his respects to
her. Occasionally she visits her majesty
the cxaritza to cheer her soul in her
golden cage. And the car himself is
there always at hand. Thus it has come
about that. while the car keeps away
from the capital Of his empire, Nine.
Pobedonostzeff has somehow found
herself to be the center OF the Russian
political world. Instead of the cars
policy, or the chancellor's, or the min
ister's policy. VIC hear of the madam's
policy. With the lnodesty Of an ascend
ing star, she does not reveal her pro-
jeots, but it is very doubtful whether
any liberal reforms will find favor with
her."

Hanging Rock.

Among the Capon Mountains Of
Hampshire County, w. Va, is q gorge
called Hanging Rock, which possesses
more than ordinary historical and ro-
mantle interest A narrow road runs
along the side Of . brawling stream.
and above 1t on either hand the wooded
cliffs rise TO hight If several hundred
feet. A band Of Catawba Indians vho
were encamped in the gap in 1881 were
set upon by party of hostile Delawares
and totally exterminated. A few years
later some prowling Frenchmen and In
dams fred from an ambush on Ensign
Daniel Morgan, 1.-THE hero Of Saltwater
aud the Cowpens." who was passing
through the gap bearing dispatches to
Winchester. Two soldiers who were
with him fell from their horses dead,
while Morgan with the blood streaming
from terrible bullet wound, clasped
his mare about the neck with both arms
and was borne safely back to Q neigh
boring fort, where he was lifted from
the saddle insensible. In 1864 the gorge
was the scene Of fierce cavalry fight
between some rowing troopers from the
Federal and rebel armies. Recently
surveyors have located the route of the
Baltimore. Cincinnati & Western Rail-
road through the pass.

A Question Of Law.

A perplexing question often arises
under the patent laws: Suppose work
man in the employ of some large estab-
lishment invents valuable improve
ment in the machinery or processes;
does the patent for 1t belong to him or
his employersa They always say that
they were paying him for his time, and
are entitled to whatever he accomplishes.
He argues that inventing is a matter
quite outside the duty for which he was
hired. For example, a pillow manufac-
turing company in Indiana employed Il
superintendent of their business, and he.
during his engagement. took out a pat
ent for the improvements he made in
the plows they were selling. They sued
him, claiming that he should transfer
the patent to them, for they said that
they were led to engage him by his as
surance that he had large experience in
making and selling plows and devising
improvements, and that be would de-
vote his time and services to manufac-
turing and perfecting their plows; also,
that the improvement he had patented
was made partly BY aid of suggestions
from other employees and with materi-
ais belonging to the company. The
Judge said these facts were not enough
to make out their case. Persons are
not deprived of the right to the inven-
tons they make while in the service of
others, unless they have been hired and
paid to exercise their inventive facul-
ties for their employers. A contract for
the time, labor and skill of an employe
in manufacturing and selling does not
give the employer the right to an i'm
provement which the employee invents.
If in this case the superintendent was
materially aided by suggestions from
other persons, he was not sole inventor.
and perhaps his coadjutors were entitled
to q share in the patent, but the fact
would not give the employer rightto it.
