One M. Koukol Jasnopolsky was
the proprietor of q printing office. One
fine morning he received visit from
General Tchebikinc, commissioned to
examine all printing stocks in the cap
ital. With the account books before
him, and not in the least knowing how
to set about discovering il the weight of
the type correspondcd with that in the
books, he ordered al! the different
kinds of type to be mixed up together
and weighed The weight was exactly
that stated. But the type broken in
the process was useless and the propri-
etor OF the office put to considerable
loss. The Civil Tribunal condemned
the over-cnergetic General to pay several
thousand rub!es damages. Here the
affair seemed at an end, but the admin
istration, feeling outraged by the YER
dict of the tribunal which, by the way,
WAS never put into effect-gave an or

JEWS IN THE CAUCASUS.
A Colony of Israelites Which Has Moth

Their Religion.

A Colony of Israelites Which Has Moth
ing in Common with Other Jews Except
Their Religion.
A colony of Jews called Dagh Tchou-
font live in the mountains of the north
crn Caucasus. The Dagh Tchoufont
live in several small but distinct COM
munities in the provinces of Daghestan,
Terek and Kouban. They say that
they are the descendants of Pers an
Jews who arrived in Daghcstan in the
fifteenth century, and who established
themselves some time later among the
Koumyks, whose princes greatly valued
their commercial aptitude and their
skill in the cultivation of madden, rice
and the vine. Considerably before the
Russian conquest of the Caucasus the e
Jews were cital lished at the aoul of
Andreievsky, on the plateau of Koumyk,
and it was after this that they came into
the Terek, where they set led in place
named Porlytch, between the present
stanitzas of SchelkazavodSkaia and
Stchedrinskaia. With the view of more
successfully resisting the attacks of the
mountainee;s s, they wera then installed
in the aouls of Andrcievsky, Tasch-
ketchi, Kizil-Yurt and Others, which
they occupy at the present day.
They number about five hundred
families. They speak different dialects
of the Circassian mountaincers, but they
prefer writing and talking the language
of Farsistan, which they brought with
them from Persia. Their Talmud is
translated into that language. They
have nothing in common with Russian
Jews except their religion, which, how
ever, possesses some distinctive feat
ures. Their rabbis are subordinate to
the Chief Rabbi of Dcrband The Dagh
Tchoufont are engaged both in com
merce and agriculture. They were the
first mountaineers of Terek to visit the
towns and distant fairs of Russia. ant
their example has contributed much to
the industr al development of the
mountaincers. They now en- 10y the
same rights as the other Circassians
they can possess lands and pay equa
taxes with the rest. London Times

RUSSIAN CENSORSHIP.
How the Gar Provides That Nothing Of
fensve BE Published.

The censorship for all publications
is composed of two courts-the Censure
Committee and the Press Department
In addition to these two there existed
at this period third division for ''press
censure" organized by the notorious
Third Section, where the chief of the
gendarmerie reigned supreme. At pres
ent this Third Section has been trans
formed into q department of the State
police, and consequently the whole CEN
sorship is confined to the Ministry of
the Interior. There exists besides these
an ecclesiastical censorship for all
works touching upon religion, and one
of the Ministry of Public Instruction,
that deals with all books or periodicals
intended for young persons. Every
publication, whether book or periodi-
cal, must undergo either preliminary
or subsequent" censorship. Those
subjected 10 preliminary censorship

printed text must il no wise differ from
this corrected manuscript, often cut
down wholesale and utterly spoiled by
the censor. With regard to publica-
tons exempted from this censorship,
once printed they are presented to the
Censure Committee, but the permission
to set them in circulation is only grant
ed after the expiration of seven days for
books and of four days for periodicals,
provided that during this period the
censor has not entered any objection.
This formality complied with, the book
review passes on to member of the
Press Department, who exercises
superior control. If all the GEN.
sors think the publication of a book
or periodical is damaging or disa.
greeable to the Government, the
printed copies are sequestered or, ac-
cording to circumstances, other steps
taken. In addition to the administrative
measures, the censorship, through the

THE OPIUM HABIT.
A Pathetic Story of One Young Man VIII
Was Addicted to Its Use.

A Pathetic Story of One Young Man Who
Was Addicted to It's Use.
A pathetic story has lately come to
my knowledge of a young man, an I'M.
der-g graduate in an Eastern college,
who had become victim of the hypo-
dermic use of morphia. He went with
his father, who was engaged in the
numbering interest, into the primeval
forests of Maine, hoping that during a
stay of months with the wood-choppers
he would be able to fight out the battle
of gradual abandonment successfully.
Through a strange fatality, when the
party had Just arrived at their camping
place, and were Transporting their
goods across u stream, the case of
morphia was broken by an apparent &C
cident and its contents scattered into the
water. None but the haggard young
man could, at the moment, comprehend
the appalling magnitude of the calam-
ity-there, as he was, two hundred
miles from the nearest settlement! He
survived the terrible ordeal, but no
words could express, he has said, the
tortures and agony through which he
passed during the succeeding weeks.
He was closely watched, else. at times,
he would have drowned himself or
beaten his brains out on the rocks.
Months afterward he came back to the
world skeleton, worn and haggard,
from his terrible contest. 1t was an ex,
perience to which he could never after
ward refer without the most painful
emotions.
Not the least signi!ica point in this
veritable account is the fact that the
young man always believed that his IA
Their had purposoly brought about the
catastrophe for the sake of bringing
matters to speedy end! Has the usual
treatment of the disease by physicians
at this day anything TO offer that is
much better than this mans summary
methods. r. Morton, in Popular
Science Monthly.
