Broken Exiles-The Farewell.

Broken E1iIe0-Th9 Farewell
We sprang out of the tarantas and saw,
standing by the roadside, square pillar ten
or twelve feet in height, Of succeed or plas-
tered tItI1l, bearing on one side the coat OF
arms of the European province Of Perm, and
on the other that of the Asiatic province Of
Tobolsk- 1t was the boundary post of ST.
IBERIA No other spot between St Peters
burg and the Pacific is more fun OF painful
Suggestions, and none has for the Traveller a
moro melancholy interest than the little
opening in the forest where stands this grief
consecrated pillar. Here hundreds Of thou
sands of exiled human beings-men, women
and children; princes, mobiles and peasants
have biddsn good-by forever to friends,
country and home
TO other boundary post In the world has
witnessed so much suffering, or been passed
by such multitude of heart broken people
More than l79,0O0 exiles have Travelled this
road since ISIS, and moro than half q mil
Lion since the beginning of the present
century. As the boundary post IS sit
uated about half way between the last
European and the first Siberian etape,
1t has always been customary to allow exile
parties TO stop here for rest and for a last
good-by to home and country. The Russian
peasant even when q criminal, Il deeply at
tached to his native land; and heartrending
scenes have been witnessed around the bound
airy pillar when such party. overtaken per-
haps by frost and snow IN the early autumn,
stopped here for last farewell Some gave
way to unrestrained grief; some comforted the
weeping; some knelt and pressed their faces
70 the loved soil Of their native country, and
collected a little earth to take with them
into exile, and few pressed their lips 70 the
European side OF the cold brick pillar, as il
kissing good-by forever to all that it SYM
bolized
At last the stern order ''Stroisa" csForm
raaksP1 from the under cf6cer Of the convoy
put an END TO the rest and tbs leave taking,
and at the word March" the gray coated
troop OF exles and convicts crossed them
selves hastily all together. and, with q con

said that the men were anxious to show
their appreciation of her work, in man

which he then handed her.
Mrs. Saul was SO overcome with his re-
marks aud with the surprise that the
tears poured down her cheeks and it was
some minutes before she could reply. She
then said that she heartily thanked all of
the men ami that she felt more than re-
warded for her labors by the simple fact
that they had been productive of some
good Over two thousand men were in
the shops, and when she had concluded all
of them shook hands with the little lady
and hade her God speed.
The medal is a very elegant affair and
was gotten up with much taste. From a
chaste gold pin, suspended by miniature
pins, is gold engine, fac smile of the

Names for Children.
Tastes differ as TO names, Of ccurse, and II
is impossible to draw line, With all the
sheep on one side and all the goats on the
other. Some people think that John and
James are excellent names, while others con-
slider them ugly and commonplace. Names
like Charlotte and Clarence are admired by
some and detested by others But whatever
disagreement as to particular names may
exist, it viii be found that there is very little
difference Of opinion as to the pleasant or un-
pleasant sound OF any ones full title, be the
same double, triple or quadruple in its con-
Struction.
The grace and beauty OF a full name or
title depend on certain uncompromising con-
ditions 1t should be rhythrnical; it should
not be Pathological; it should contain sut1-
Gent quantity Of vowel and consonant
sounds; it should be easily pronounced bic; it
should not suggest unpleasant associations
For example; u.j Three loag nonosyllabic
names in succession, like ''Jonn Paul JONES'
are not as desirable as combination of long
and short quantities, like "Oiiver Wendell
Holmes" e. Pathological names, like John
Johnson" or William Williams, /" are an abo-
mination- g. ELLA Ellis" is too monoton-
Gus; it would be better to name the child
"Kate' or Marian" H. "uenry Wads-

The entertainment given by the ladies
of the Baptist church in the Y. NJ. G. A.
hall last evening proved a very remarkable
success. The attendance was large and
the provisions for the comfort and enter
tainment of the guests were made on an
elaborate scale. The unique feature was
the sugar eat, the sugar being i'm
ported from Massachusetts, and served
on cakes of ice. The proper way to serve
the sugar is said to be with snow, but as
none could be secured in this territory and
it was a matter of extreme difficulty to
cart it in from Nebraska this feature had
to be abandoned. Mrs. Warren had gen.
eral supervision of the work and had
many able assistants. At one
unique table, presided over by Mrs.
Churchill, Miss Crook and Miss Horrie,
the great test was the ability to solve con-
undrums.
