OUR KALEIDOSCOPE.

The incident, related in this column a few weeks
ago, of the comedian who set out TO teach clergy
men how TO read the Lords Prayer has brought TO
my notice the following story about Kyrle Bellew,
the we'll known actor. lie Is the of English
clergyman, who, In addition to his being a minis
ter, is also q splendid elocutionist and from whom
the son inherits those talents which have made him
famous on the stage The elder Bellew, II IL said
played. or rather read, the play of Hamlet" to q
large audience In Langdon Hall, London, over
twenty years ago. having dummy actors who came
on at the proper "cues" and went through the act
ing and business OF the piece the clergyman read
Ing all their parts.
The gentleman who told me the above also
vouched for the fact that the performance was a
most entertaining one and that he had never heard
Shakespeares lines grandly interpreted. He also
added: "But he is about the only clergyman
ever heard who was a finished elocutionist. His
son inherited the same talent but he took to the
stage, and the pulpit lost another great orator"

that work she took full editorial charge Of
Tho Sunny South, weekly story paper pub
hshed In Atlanta, and kept two serials con-
stantly running In addition to her other
hbors. During the spare hours left by this
task she wrote "Manche, }" which was pub
lished by the Appletons, and this was fol-
lowed by 'Wild Work, which was tale Of
the reconstruction period Immediately after
the war. Both had an enormous success, but
"Manche" Is the better book. These were fol-
lowed by almost numberless serials and other
shorter articles Of every conceivable style,
all marked by rare vigor and originality.
While still working on The Sunny South,
Mr.. George Munro wrote and offered her an
enviable position on his publications as lit
erary editor, and she went to New York
some four years ago, and has won her way
there. Mrs. Bryan married at II, and has
little boy of about IL, who remains in the
south with his father, who is not in good
health. In appearance Mrs Bryan is very
attractive, having beautiful soft, dark eyes,
a fine forehead and mobile features, a slen-
der, girlish figure and thick head of black
hair, which she wears short. She is quick
and nervous in her movements, absent
minded to degree as regards her belong
ings, and she seems to live on nerve, for she
eats scarcely anything.
Mrs. Bryan now has an ample salary,
though she was not always so fortunate, and
had to win her way against many obstacles.
In the beginning she had no help to a liter
ary career, having been born and reared in
the middle of Florida in an isolated home on
cotton plantation. There were no railroads
within fifty miles, and no schools She had
few books and no education except that
given by her mother, who was superior
woman, until she was II years old, when she
was taken to an academy and there remained
until her marriage, after which she pursued
her studies until she graduated.

Tho Transplantation Of Tissue.

The possibility of tho transportation of
tissue from one human subject to another,
from the lower animals to man, and even
from man to the lower animals, has been re-
peatedly demonstrated. John Hunter trans
planted the spur of cock to its comb, where,
under the influence of a more abundant blood
supply, it tlourished exceedingly. A tooth
has also been made to grow in the comb of a
cock, and freshly drawn teeth have been
transplanted from one human jaw to an
other. The operation of Taliacotius, for re-
storing lost nose by means of skin taken
from another individual, has been immortal
lied by .'Hudibras," and has from timo i'm
mortal been practiced in eastern countries,
where loss Of the nose has been not uncom-
mon attendant upon the blessings of paternal
government. In the present day surgeons
prefer to repair the nose from the forehead
of tho patient, but this change of method
does not render the older way any the less
practicable. Several attempts have been
made of late years to repair damaged human
eyes by corresponding portions taken from
the eyes Of rabbits or of dogs; and although
none of these attempts have as yet been con-
spicuously successful, the comparative fail
urc has not depended upon any insurmount-
able difficulty in the way Of inducing the
transplanted structure to take root and live
In the case Of nerve the experiment would
be tried with much hopefulness, because this
structure possesses great powers of repair,
and even of reproduction.-London World.

The Water Route to siberia.


While Mr.. Sibirikiakoff, tho wealthy Rus
sian merchant, was sinking thousands Of
dollars every year in the vain effort to provo
that steamers could make tho passage from
western Europe through the Kara Ito the
Yenisei river, a rugged British sea captain
named Wiggins kept asserting that the route
was perfectly feasible, and that the Russian
failed because his ships were inadequate to
the task, and consequently got fast in the
ice On his own account Capt Wiggins has
made three successful voyages to the Yenisei,
and with capitalist named Sullivan he has
now embarked in the Siberian trade by the
sea route. They left England three weeks
ago in the well freighted steamer Labrador,
which they expect will be met at the mouth
OF the Yenisei by their steamer Phoenix from
Yenlse1sk. 1000 miles up the river, with a
cargo from the far interior of Siberia. The
vessels will exchange cargoes, and tho
voyagers will then push into the Kara sea
again. They hope to make the round trip in
little over two months.
The profits of the voyage, if successful,
will be enormous. The ample productions
OF southern Siberia, of which Mr.. KEENAN,
has recently given vivid description, arc
as yet almost inaccessible, except for homo
consumption. 1t results from tho almost
utter lack of communications that homo
produce in Siberia is very cheap, while for
eign goods of all sorts are very dear. Tho
cost of freight from Moscow to Irkutsk is now
$50 ton. Capt. Virgins says he can mako
handsome profit by laying down goods on
the Yenisei from England at SIG q ton. IIo
says he can buy on the Yenisei first class
ships mas. sixty feet high for s.; that beef
costs there only five cents a pound; that
ton of salt, worth fifteen shillings at Liver
pool, is salable ut Yenisei for SIS; that q
ton Of wheat can be bought there for SIS, and
he found fine quality of black lead so plen-
tiful that he ballasted his ship with it.
The day is coming when this great empire,
with all its mineral wealth, its boundless for
ests, its furs and fossil ivory, its tallow, wool
and grain, will be closely bound to the outer
world by commercial highways, and then
Siberian produce will not be bought for a
song.-New York Sun.

How the Voting Has Been.

The accompanying map shows at a glance
the political battlefield and those particular
sections where the battle now RACES hottest.
Each globe is colored to show the majority
at each Of the last four presidential elections
Republican, black; Democratic, white. Thus,
If the state was Democratic in 1872, the upper
left hand quarter is white; if in 1876, the
upper right hand quarter; if in 1880, the lower
left hand quarter, and the remaining quarter
for 1884. The quarters are in like manner
white for Republican success in those years.
This shows the curious groupings Of the
states, fifteen northern states being in solid
black and five southern states in solid white,
meaning that the former states ere the t'solid

men, very fair, straight and slender. They

The Russians have struggled hard to stop
the trade in girls for the Turkish haren,. but
IN intelligent Georgian told mo it was still
carried on to limited extent, but insisted it
existed only upon the mountains near the
Black Sea, and not in his part of the country.
But after all does the thing really do harm3
A handsome girl is sold to a Turk-she be-
comes his wife-and her parents in their old
age have comforts. Left here she and thew

do not go as unwilling slaves, or at least not
more so than many beauty that you and

and Ci-oassia alone that warm young hearts
are turned to stone for the sweet privilege
Of treading upon soft Turkish carpets and
slipping tea in egg shell china and eating from

Kings and emperors would suppress tho
selling Of slave girls, and yet their own
wives, daughters and sisters are or were
made princely merchandise. Not far from
the Baltic there are royal studs where prin-
cesses are bred and regularly trotted out and
right royalty sold. The thing is called state
alliances. Following these are those shining
examples for common folks to follow, such
as Milan's platonic firtations with actresses.

fashionable American society. and is Of a

tion to the area covered. This was because
the district Is mountainous and very thinly
settled. Not more than 500 persons were
killed, though the half of whole enormous
mountain was blown bodily into the air and
in its fall covered at least forty square miles
OF the lower country.
The feature in which this differed from
previous calamities of the kind was that it
was not, strictly speaking, q volcanic erup-
t1on. There was no lava, and the fall of
ashes was very light; there was simply an ex-
plosion by steam, on scale so vast that all the
boiler explosions since man first used the fluid
as motor, united into one, would not have
made an introduction to it. Evidently the
bottom Of a vast lake suddenly opened, the
water descended into the body Of the volcanic
furnace and was instantly converted into
steam; there was convulsive quiver for,
perhaps, ten or twenty seconds, then tho
whole upper half and eastern side Of Mount
Bandaizan sprang into the air and, appas-
emily turning over towards the east, fell in
mountainous masses, burying few hamlets
under rock and earth to the depth of hun
dreds of feet. In vain does the imagination
strive to conceive of such a convulsion, or
the pen of genius to describe it. Yet many
persons witnessed it and live to tell the tale.
OF course these were minor phenomena Of
note. Steam issued from crevices on and
about the mountain for some time. Peaks
and cliffs here and there fell New lakes
were formed and new hills on tho former
plain. But the destruction was sudden and
complete. Only one buried village can be
reached at all, and twenty days digging
were required for that; the others wcro in
stantly crushed to atoms below millions of
tons of earth and rock, and all life therein
annihilated in the twinkling of an eye. The
wind created by the conclusion blew down
villages and uprooted forests several miles
away. The dust and steam also injured
many at some distance. But the strangest
feature of the destruction is that the border
