"A Gigantic Project.

It is announced that the Russians are
actually setting about the gigantic pro-
iect of railway from Europe to the
Pacific across the whole length of Sibe-
ria. The estimated cost is put at 300,-
OOO, 900 roubles, or about 1000 900, of
which about tenth will be spent on five
huge bridges. The line is to go by
Omsk, Tomsk and Irkutsk, by the
northern shore of Lake Baikal; thence
to the valley of the Amoor, and finally
sOuthwards to Vladivostock. The prime
object of the scheme, states the London
''Daily News" is military. 1t is the
Russian answer to the completion of the
Canadian Pacific railway, and the sud
den equipment of surveying parties has
been brought about by the desire to pro-
tect the Russian settlements on the
Pacific The scheme has been discussed
for years, but its vast commercial i'm
portance has hitherto failed to act as a
sufficient motive to undertake the work.
pie of the Russian Empire will raise the
whole enormous capital, and there can
be little doubt that ihe opening up of
the almost unlimited resources of Siberia
would add immensely to the wealth Of
the nation. Among the Siberian noun
tains are some of the richest mineral
districts in the world, and in spite of the
intense cold of winter a vast forest
stretches from the Ural mountains to
the Pacific Moreover the line is car
ried close to the frontiers of the Celestial
Empire, and the traffic in Chinese pro-
ducts which is even now carried on must
pour along the Siberian line in immense
ly increasing quantities. From a gen
eral commercial point of view there can
be only one feeling on the subject, and
if commerce were the only consideration
the undertaking would be one in which
the civilized powers might fifty join. AS
it is, the benefit of the Russian Empire
must be commensurate with the vastness
of the project.

Roasted Peacock.
THE Caterer.

Twice year old Thomas had either a
peacock or peahen on his table. The
peacock was served usually in January
and the peahen in July. The former
made a grand appearance, being
brought to the table with his gorgeous
tail feathers spread, which, however,
were removed before it was carved; but
the peahen of which l partook was
served without her train, of which
she had been deprived while being shut
up and fattened The meat tastes much
like turkey, should be stuffed with a
similar dressing and basted with plenty
of butter, while cooking. Old Sally
used to lard the breast as its flesh is
rather dry and, just before serving it,
poured into the body, from the neck,
equal Quantities of port wine and strong
beef gravy mixed, with a teacupful Of
currant Jelly dissolved therein, allowing
the same to permeate slowly into the
bird Currant ELY is always the &C
compartment of roasted peacock.

Neglect of the Hebrew Language.

It is a very sad thing to him who loves
the Hebrew language to see how gradu-
ally knowledge of it among the Jews
is decreasing. This was forcibly called
to our attention recently, when, on at
tending several funerals, the chief
mourner was not sufficiently acquainted
with the Hebrew to repeat the Aaddish
without the assistance of the officiating
rabbi. Parents need not strive to hush
the accusing voice of conscience by say
ing there are too many other more
necessary things to be, learned in this
afford mind exercise, and, if for this
reason alone, the Hebrew should be
taught the language of his raca

Volume " VHha.

This is the initial number Of volume
XVIII, of TIE CAToCTlN CLARION,
founded by VIM. Need, and for exactly
one half of the seventeen years, under
its present editorial management.
We have in this time become so fully
and completely identified with its in
terests that We have, as 1t were, become
incorporated with it, and all there is of
the one finds both its existence and eX-
preston in the other.
Viewing it thus we shall not indulge
in very great laudation of our other
self but shall be content to say that we
are content and to the end that some OBJ,
vious reasons for our complacency may
be made apparent, shall refer to the
more prominent events Of the past year,
to the shaping and possibly to some de.
gree the projecting Of some Of which THE
CLARION is not wholly without credit.
Within year we have seen per
manent water supply introduced into
our town and already placed upon a
sound financial basis.
We have seen eight hundred dollars
raised to equip Fire Company and
that organized, equipped with two
reels, six hundred feet of hose md 9th.
er essentials, and q body Of thirty two
men exceptionally we'll drilled and uni.
formed.
We have seen one Of the handsomest
depots along the line Of the ". Md. rail
road erected at point from which our
town NAV be cen and to which our PEG.
pie contributed nearly one thousand
dollars.
We have seen an admirable industry,
the Burial Case Works, built up here
and of which We are proud to-day and
to which one year hence, unless our
Judgment be sadly at fault, we shall re-
fer, quoting its rapid growth within
the year.
We have seen the plans laid and
much of the equipment purchased for
a canning house by Mr.. John Root and
the experience of the past warrants US
in claiming it to be a wondrous help to
our laboring people.
We have seen personal property tax
ed for borough purposes and thus all
properly required to contribute to
ward the expense Of lights, streets, law
and order, Of which all receive equal
benefit.
The above is brief resume Of steps
that have each in their turn been advo-
Gated and reported accomplished in our
columns, during the past year whatev-
er may be adiudged to our credit in
this, is that which We build upon when
we say We are content.
We send YOU greeting, friends, and
invoke your interest and cooperation

Luxuriant Hair

Can only be preserved by keeping the
scalp clean, cool, and free from dam
druff, and the body in a hralihful
condition. The great popularity Of
Ayers Hair Nisor is due to the fact
that it ciranseS the scalp, promotes the
growth of the hair, prevents it from
falling ont. and gives it that soft and
silky gloss so essential to perfect beauty.
Frederick Hardy, of RoNbury, Mass,
gentleman fifty years OF age was fast
losing his hair, and what remained was
growing gray. After trying various
dressings with no effect. lie commenced
the use of Ayers Hair Nigor. :" 1t
stopped tho falling out" he writes;
"and, to my great surprise, converted
my white hair (withont staining the
scalp) to tie same shade Of brovn it
had when | was % years of age"
