meetings and passing resolutions rejecting

There are many firms having stands in the
main building who would pay literally to lie
allowed to close up and 60 home. The sx-
penss Of keeping several clerks here and the
formerly small attendance discouraged
them, and they were anxious to withdraw
and close their stands Several exhibits
have already been abandoned. The young
man who is removing his goods will be all
out before Sunday. For more than a month
he has been steadily at work, carrying away
little every day in paper bag or a hand
sachel. The few bits of furniture at his
stand have been sold to other exhibitors, and
no bids fair to get clear without losing any
thing at all. There may be many more do
ing the same thing, though no cases have
yet been reported.

All that can be said about education in
very large portion of Russia is that it does
Iot exist. There is no national provision
for the teaching Of the masses in the rural
districts, and, though municipal authorities
in towns have the power to establish schools,
they have hitherto exercised it very spar
ingly. Towns, however, in the sense in
which the word is understood in America,
are hardly to be found in the dominions Of
the czar. The two capitals stand apart, of
course; besides these there is not Il single
city in the whole of Russia which wouli be
deemed a large town in America. Only
twenty have a population exceeding SO, 900,
and only so count more than 10, 600 inhabi.
tants Not more than one in eight of the
100000 who make up the subjects Of
Alexander III can be called q townsman.
The remaining seven-eighths Of the people
are dwellers in isolated village communities.

ATLANTA constitutional
The revenue raiders have some very thrill
ing experiences sometimes. A few nights
ago party of raiders were up the Marietta
q North Georgia railroad. In the party was
a very quiet but utterly fearless young fellow
named Lee Cape. The party approached
distillery In which five men were at work,
and as the place was being surrounded the
moonshiners discovered that something was
going wrong. They made a wild dash,
every man going in a different direction.
Near by was creek about fifteen
feet wide and eighteen inches deep.
The night was one of the coldest
Of the recent severe weather A distiller
made a bold dash toward that creek. Lee
Cape was on the of side OF the stream and
putou to intercept him. As the moonshiner
approached one bank Lee come up on the
other, both painting from the violet race.
Without hesitation the fleeing 'stiller plunged
in, and as he did so Lee Cape, from the
opposite bank, presented big revolver and
said:
"Halt!'
The moonshiner stopped in the middle Of
Jue slTeaH.
Don't run, said Cape.
"Hello, Lee" observed the moonshiner,
standing half-waist deep in the icy waters

And the blockader, shvering and freez-

In the rear OF the coach / saw young
couple who seemed to be very deeply inter.

well dressed and had nice manners Her
eyes were bright, her cheeks rosy and her
lips vermillion. The young couple appeared
to be much pleased with each other and, In
spite Of their surroundings were indulging
in soft speeches and melting glances.
After awhile the young man suggested
that they 60 out on the rear end of the coach
and enjoy the beautiful scenery. The after
noon was bright and the sun was shining
across from the west in genial way. cast
ing long shadows towards the east The
train sped along through fields, over bridges
and around curves, and in my admiration Of
the line farms to be seen from my window l

Of their faces-even the molten Of the young
mans lips and the shadow Of the young

ing to look at, and called the attention Of
my neighbor on the next seat to it.
Soon almost every one In the Car was
watching the shadows. The young man
seemed to be very earnest and the young
lady very attentive. Gently and as if by
accident the shadow of the young mau's
arm glided around the shadow of th, young
lady's waist and the shadow Of the young
mans lips wers seen to quicker" and dive at
the space between the shadow OF thu young

train became deeply interested and as the
shadows would meet tim, after timea litter
would run up and down the line inside the
car. "Dippin' sugar" said one old fellow
down in the corner. 1t seemed that could
almost see the sparks of electricity fly out
of the shadows on the bank as the lips came
together.
About the time the whistle lew for town
and the young people came in looking harm
less and innocent-like and the young lady
remarked, Wasn't the scenery just too

like he had said something funny.
