Speaking of the warlike demonstra'
tions on the part of England and Russia
the San Francisco Argonaut Of last
Saturday says: "That the war is newt.
able. we do not doubt. In our opinion
the wal is already begun; armies are

land, fleets weigh anchor, merchant yes.
sells hide in friendly neutral ports, a
Russian army is within eighty miles Of
Herat. And Herat is more than the key
Of India; it is the key to Central Asia;
it is the heart of Afghanistan; it is the
strategic point which, once seized and
its Notifications strengthened, will prove
im~pregnable against all the power that
England may bring against it. Herat is
SO ancient that its origin is lost in anti.
guilty. 1t is fortified with immense
earthworks, s~urmounted with q wall,
and surrounded by a moat; with the i'm.
provements of modern engineering. it is
capable of being converted into an i'm.
pregnable fortress. The walled enclosure
of Herat is one mile square, and the city
is situated upon a broad river in a fertile
valley, capable of being provisioned and
watered to stand a long siege. Herat is
in the same latitude as that of San Diego,
in California-about IS degrees north.
The country about it for three hundred
miles one way, and two hundred miles
the other, is a most fruitful and pro-
ductive valley, and at one time sustained
a population of one and one-half millions
of people. Herat was once the glory
and wonder of the East, renowned for its
palatial structures, the beauty and
grandeur of its mosques and palaces. 1t
has been captured by Timour and Chen
gis Khan; it has been the central point
around which great tragedies have been
enacted since the time of the Prophet;
it has been fourishing and populous; it
has been ruined and desolate; it has
been the seat of wealth and magniicence,
and the favored seat Of literature and
art. The consequences to this city. and
to this part Of Central Asia, will be i'm
p~ortant, whatever may be the outcome
of the war. Afghan will no longer be
regarded as the zone between Russia and
India, in which it is better to encourage
~marauding and lawless tribes than organ
lied government, and it is not impossible
that Cabul, Candahar, and Herat will
become the centers of civilized power.
That the Russians do not intend to relax
their efforts without q struggle, is ap-
parent. Only twelve years ago the
Cossack cam down upon Kiva; three
years ago the oasis Of Merv came within
Russian dominion. Since the recent EN-
broilment, Penjdeh has been brought
within their ever advancing southwark
border, and Herat, if not already cap
tured, is within the embrace Of the

The Rhine Wine supply.

1t is perfectly ridiculous for wine
merchants to assert that the flower of
the produce of the vineyards of the
Duke of Nassau and of Prince Meter
mich gets into the hands of ''the trade. "
The best is almost invariably retained
for certain imperial and royal cellars
and for few favored customers. The
''SchloSsn vineyard at JOhannisberg
extends TO only forty acres, while that
of the Duke of Nassau, near the Abbey
of Eberbach, is only 60 acres. You
may, therefore form some inadeduacy
of the supply as compared with the de-
mand. The fact is that the wine
usually sold at Johannisberger does
not come from Prince Metternlch's
famous vineyard, The best is grown
on the adjoining estate of Count Schon-
born, while most of that which is sold
in England is the produce of the vine
yards around the village of JOhannis-
b ry, which, although not bad, is very
far inferior to second-rate growths of
RudeSheimer, Marcobrunner and Rau-
thenthaler. Berg-Steinberger Cabinet,
in the same way, come, as rule, from
vineyards in the district behind Hat
tenheim. The prices at which the sup
posed JOhannisberger and Steinberger
are sold show at once that they cannot
possibly be what ignorant people sup
pose them to be. You can get ''Rudes-
hiemer" at Rudeshiem for three shil-
Iings a bottle, but for really frst-rate
Rudesheimer you will pay nearly three
times that price. People who like
Rhine wine of high class land there
is no finer tipple) must be prepared TO
pay a very liberal price for 1t, and the
present rates are likely to increase.
The 'crack" vineyards of the Rhinegau
are incapable of producing twentieth
part of the wines which are sold as
coming from them.

One of the most remarkable uses to
which paper has been put of late years
is the manufacture of zylonite, a SUBJ
stance which, at the will Of the man.
ufacturer, may be made in imitation
of horn, rubber, tortoise shell, amber,
and even glass. The uses TO which
zylonite is adaptable are almost infinite,
but perhaps the most extraordinary is
the manufacture of cathedral windows.
The discovery was made by an English
man named Spills about fifteen years
ago, but it was only about five years ago
that company was formed in London
for its manufacture.
The basis of zylOnite is a plain white
tissue paper, made from cotton, or cot
ton and linen rags. The paper, being
treated first with a bath of sulphuric
and other acids, undergoes a chemical
change. The acid is then carefully
washed out, and the paper treated with
aaother preparation of alcohol and
camphor. After this it assumes an ap-
pearance very much like parchment.
it is then capable of being worked up
into plates of any thickness, rendered
almost perfectly transparent. or given
any OF the brilliant colors that silk will
take. 1t Is much more flexible than
either horn or ivory, and much less
brittle. Combs or other articles made
of it, in imitation Of tortoise shell, art
said to be 50 perfect in appearance as tC
deceive the eye Of the most practica
workman in that substance.

StOrmIng the Ice Palace.

A January writer from Montreal
says: The visitors managed to enjoy
themselves In the morning at the Vie
toria Skating Rink watching skating
tournament. The Governor General
ahd Lady LansdOwn and their children
were present. The competitors were
from Canada and fromthe United States
The contest was a close one; the local
champion, Rubenstein, winning by 2S2
points, against Robinson of Toronto,
80 points. In the afternoon there was
a steeplechase across the mountain, "A
Mardi Gras:masquerade and toboggan
races at the Russian side. Recently
the snowshoers' attack on the ice palace
was as peculiar as it was fascinating.
The leaders of both the attack and the
defense were commanders of local mill
tary regiments. The battle-ground Is
large oblOng square at one end-Of the
palace. The towers and turretS d
clear ice, with the cOrnrrs and angles
gLtterIng as JhOngh set with diamonds,
were intensified by electric lights
within and without. The snOwshOe
soldiers, with torches, quietly entered
the square and took their allotted posi-
tions. A bomb was fired as a signal
for the attack And a shower of harm.
balls were at once hurled against the
icy ramparts Rocket after rocket was
shot up, and the palace glOwed with
cOlored lights. Each turret burned
with fires of many eOlOrs, and with fire.
balls and rockets the defenders an.
swered the attack. Then came a rush
from outside, with perfect storm OI
fire balls from within. Then another
rush and d vOlley of rockets and Roman
candles, and the palace was taken.
Beseiged and beseigers then marched
from the palace gates and up the
mountain side. 1t looked from below
as if great serpeant of fire was gliding
along the mountain. The scene wa:
The most enchanting one since the can

dear" she said very gravely, as May
came in to show herself in all her we'd
ding finery. but the bride only blushed,
having evidently no doubt upon the
subject
In the evening there was a grand
ball, and the house was merry with
music and brilliant with many lights,
while Lydia, being the youngest bride
present, was besieged by admirers and
would be partners. But, though her
feet moved lightly in the dance, her
heart was very heavy, and very soon
she stole away into the library to be at
rest for little time
Even here, however, she could not be
alone, for scarcely had she entered the
room before a footman followed her.
MY lord is here, and Is asking to see
your ladysliip," he said apolOgetically,
as she turned to confront him, vexed at
being disturbed and, almost before he
had finished speaking, Lord Sands
pushed past him and closed the door be-
hind him.
LYDIA, what does this mean 2" he
asked impatiently. She stood notion
less, leaning a little forward, and her
eyes seemed fastened on the face which
they had hungered to see for so many
days.
"Oh, why did you not write ?' she
cried with a sob of joy at having him
at last.
II did not get your letter for some
time" he answered hastily. II was
away, trying to forget the past year of
my life, which has been the sweetest
and yet the most bitter that have ever
known. Then your letter came-Idared
not write to ask you why Captain Dali
frey was marrying your sister when he
loved you, and so | started for home at
once. Do you think 1 did not see the
exchanged glances, the smiles and whis-
pers, the way he haunted your footsteps
and how he never seemed content apart
from you. And, then, for yourself, do
you think did not note your change to
me, your GOODNESS, and the sorrowful
look in the eyes that l had sworn to
keep clear from all shade of grief ?''
She had been standing silently before
him with bowed head and lowered
lashes but, as the last words fell on
her ear, she raised her face and stretched
out her arms to him with low, glad
cry.
''Keith, my love, my love ~ And in
another moment she was strained to
her husbands breast, as though he
could never release his newly-found
treasure.
Lydia, little Lydia, do you really
love me z" he whispered at last and,
though she did not answer in words, the
tender light in her eyes, and the dreamy
smile on her parted lips told him all
that he would tain know.
"And So Dalfrey was i'll love with
May ?" he said, laughing, a few miu-
utes later. You see, 10 me there was
only one woman III the world, and |
don't think | realized that any one
could see charms elsewhere. And you
loved me only, Lydia, and were grieved
at my cOldness ~
Il think | loved you always; Keith /;
but had heard 50 much of marriage as
a business affair that did not think it
might also be a matter of affection"
80 much for friendship between the
sexes!' cried Jack, chuckling to him
self, when he saw how thiHgs had turned
out. "Oh, Plato, Plato, with thy dir
