"ToLD You So."-The ladies will

the concern politicians have for " the
woman vote" There is not an au.
thoritative enunciation of principles
yet put forth anywhere in the Terri
tory that has not recognized the
right Of women 10 vote and hold
Office. The candidates oil favor o
continuation Of the law, and some OF
them manifest the zeal of new con-
verts so strongly that they entirely
ignore those who have been mainly
instrumental in placing the ballot in
the hands Of woman. But this is
m old habit Of the professional poll
tician, and is too transparent to de-
ceive as intelligent an element as
has been admitted to equal priv.

EGYPTS SCA7rERED OBELLsKs.

Thirty obelisks transported from
Egypt from time to time are now stand
ing in various parts OF Europe. OF
these there are in Rome eleven, of which
four are higher than the New York
obelisk. The highest of these and the
highest in Europe, being 1O6 feet with
out the base, stands before the church
of st. John Lateran. The obelisk in
the piazza of st. Peters is eighty-two
feet nine inches high. Both Of these
were mounted on high pedestals. The
pedestal of the st. John Lateran obelisk
is forty.four feet high, making the en-
tire height of obelisk and pedestal $50
feet. The pedestal of the st. Peter
obelisk is trihe less than fifty feet
high, making the whole height of the
monument 1872 feet 2 inches If Com
mander Gorringe had brought with him
the entire pedestal on which the New
York obelisk stood at Alexandria, about
the same proportion would he observed as
those of the st. John Lateran obelisk,
the pedestal of the former being twenty
seven feet and one inch, AMI its pedestal
sixty-eight feet and eleven inches,
making the whole height of our obelisk
ninety-six feet.

JEWS IN RUSSIA,

Peter the Great was the first to admit
Jews into Russia They emigrated to
that country in large numbers, and ut
first were treated fairly. Christian
prejudice was soon aroused, and in 1743
the Empress Elizabeth expelled 81, 900.
They were readmitted 10y the Empress
Catherine. Until the time of the En-
peror Alexander l., in whom they found
a friend, they were held in the most alb
ject condition, and denied all the moro
important privileges of citizens. Alex
Rnder granted them full liberty of trade
and commerce. But the DEGREES of Al
exander were Cancelled by his successor.
Nicholas, and since that time, III spite OF
the scheme of 1885, which contemplated
the improvement of their condition, and
the extension of their liberties, and oc-
casional and intermittent favors of
subsequent date, the Jews have had
hard fate in Russia. In Poland they
found home at much earlier date.
AS early as the fourteenth century they
were in high favor at court, a Jewish
maiden of great beauty having won the
affections of Casimir the Great, and for
many years the whole trade of the coun-
try was in their hands. In the seven
teenth and eighteenth centuries they
had fallen into disfavor, and they gradu
ally sank into condition OF deplorable
ignorance and most abject poverty. To
this day the Polish Jew, in spite of adj
mitted improvement in late years, is the
meanest in Europe, one of the most
wretched specimens of existing human
ity. Up 10 the time of Nicholas, Jews
were not allowed to possess land, to give
evidence in civil suits, to have syna-
gogues, or to inhabit the holy cities Of
Kew and Moscow. They were obliged
to wear particular dress so that their
nationality could not be mistaken, and
out of every jewish family one child
was always taken by the state to be edu-
Gated as a Christian at his parents cost.
Some of their disabilities have since
been removed. The Jew has his syna-
gogue, his schools, his municipal privi-
leges, and he is allowed to celebrate the
festivals of his church with public dis
plays. But he is not yet in the enjoy
ment Of equal rights with the native
population around him. He holds no
land, but he trades, and trades Success.
fully, and it is estimated that two.thirds
Of the trade of the Southern states and
at least one third of that in the North is
in Jewish hands.

"That," said Betty, AMI then she
broke into a merry laugh, that got so
mixed up with the dimplcs and the
dancing brown eyes that for II moment
she could not finish. "Oh, john, |

They weren't gooG, but they were the
best could do, then. And Id only
bought 'em yesterday. Two whole
dozen. And when you put that $40
bill in my hand 1 didn't hardly know
it, but 1 suppose 1 did give one little
bit of sigh, for l was so provoked that
1 hadn't waited buying them till to.

John caught up the little woman,

they have ever quarreled since-at least
l have never heard OF it.
