ths scslnty and precautionary measures Of
tbo Government than BY renewal activity

come non time to time BY cable indicates
Z dangerous outbreak Of the evolutionary
spirit and extraordinary vigilance on Che
part Of The authorities. Since tbc Cars

prisoner than ever in his iron.clad palace,
elaborate military preparations for bis pro.

mept that this action was not owing TO the
Nibihstic tendencies Of the students, but
TO other offences Of which they had been
guilty; but the world will hardly accept
snch an explanation, particularly as they
wire assigned ten, aud only ten, to com.
rapy in the army OF the Caucasus, aud sent
to Merv. The logical inference In respect OF
these students Is that their offence was the
cry for "more freedom" which cry has
so often depleted the universities Of Rus
STA, aud which. being generally melted by
the old nobility, has widespread signifl-
canoe. II this is so. taken in connection
with the facts that DrGUErP bought his
life from the Revolutionists Executive
Committee by killing SuDEIKIs at the very
time It was thought the society was crushed
out, and that ToLsToI has discovered that
the Jews have lately replenished the trea-
sury Of the Reyolutionists, the further
logical inference Is that the revolutionary
movement is stronger and more dangerous
than II had been since the death Of ALExAN.

sensational than usual lately, startling de-
velopmcnts may be expected from Russia
at any time.

NEGRoFooT, December 13, 1884.
Tradition has II that the queer name OF
this locality owes its origin TO the quarter
ing OF native African child-eater by the
Infatuated populace for having killed and
eaten child OF the vicinage away back in
the long ago, and that when the arms and
feet OF the sable Lowell OF human flesh had
been " eliminated from said eater OF chill
dIen, one foot was suspended from tree
precisely at this spot, as forcible reminder
OF what might be expected by any other
who Glanced to have tooth Tor Juvenile

Another account has ii that this crime OF
cannibalism was revenged by securely
strapping the criminal to wild colt, which
so franticaily rushed through the shrub
berry Of We olden times that the limbs OF The
rider were severally torn off; then they
were suspended, foot here, an arm You
der. and hrs head at another point, which
to this day bears the eupbonious title OF
"Negrohead." Whether these accounts are
founded on fact or legend, the grim realities
OF decay and dilapldation mark the spot,

the response.

The document in question, Of which the
following Is copy, is perhaps the only one
OF The kind In existence. IL reads:
"CITY OF KANSAS AND STATE OF Mis-
souRr-To Whom IL Nay Concern: This

This queer document. as may be well

that the young man was joking. but a
glance at his composed, serious counte'

case. Recovering his equanimity, he de-
handed OF the gentleman:
