The City CHar Peter BulIt on the Deadly
Marshes of tho Neva.
There was a sublime ruthlessness
about the Gear Peter which reminds
US at every step Of the operation
OF the forces OF nature. What rocked
he how many of 40000 serfs, whom he
impressed every year to build his city,
perished in the marshp AS little as
the earthquake which engulfs a city or
the typhoon which desolates province.
He was an elemental force embodied In
human form-and what forcel No
one can properly appreciate the colos-
sal energy Of the man until he has had
some acquaintance with the unconquer-
able inertia OF the people whom Peter
set himself to force into step with ma
tions hundreds OF years In advance of
Muscovy. Even to this day his coun-
trymen have not quite made up their
minds whether he was tiend or an
archangel, antichrist, or a new ava-
tar. But surely in all history there are
few more pathetically tragic spectacles
than this tremendous battle with mud
giants on the part Of this modern
Thor, q struggle constantly re,

pidity against which the gods them
selves contend in vain. ! suppose Mr..

object lesson as TO the fatuity Of all
Efforts to force the pace OF nature. But
Peter himself, with his fiery energy
and unconquerable will, was at least
as fundamental piece Of nature as
the sluggishness and superstition with
which he waged so sore war. 1t is
true he failed in much, and many
things have not turned out as he
hoped. Even St. Petersburg is now
admitted TO occupy by no means the
most desirable site on the Russian sea-
board. The mortality among the levies
whose labor built the city was great,
but the number who perish by the un-
healthiness Of the site year after year,
even to this day, is still more appall-
ing. The death rate OF st. Petersburg
is nearly double that Of London, and,
even il all allowance is made for the
difference Of sanitary science, the NOR
tality due to the site selected by Peter
can hardly be less than 10 per 1000
per annum. As the population OF the
capital is 100000, this is equivalent to
an annual hecatomb OF $500 victims
sacrificed TO the names Of the Despot
Reformer. - CentemD0rGrY ReVieso.

st. Petersburg's Extraordinary Sidewalks
and Capricious Climate.
One OF the most extraordinary things
about st. Petersburg is the unevenness
of the sidewalks 1t must surely be
accounted for by reaction against
the prevailing Hatness Of Russia.
Even in leading thoroughfares the
sidewalks, instead OF being made, as
with us, as level as possible, abound
In the most treacherous ups and
downs. How drunken men survive a
walk through the streets is to me an
unsolved mystery. In Middlesborough
it used to be profanely said that the
Quakers. who had laid out the town,
purposely elevated the sidewalk a
couple of feet above the roadway in
some of the streets in order to break
the necks of drunkards. Possibly a
similar benevolent motive prompted
the construction of the trottoirs Of the
Russian capital. People get used to
any thing, and after week in the city
you become so accustomed to the sud-
den sbiftings Of gradient as hardly to
notice their existence In the same
way you become accustomed to
the dvornik, who sits doing outside
the door of every public building or
tenemented house. At first nothing
seems more monstrous than the pres
ence of this sheep-skin clad mortal at
the door of your hotel, motionless and
somnolent all through the night. but
after awhile you cease to notice him.
He is supposed to be a substitute for
police. and, as he survives the winter,
he may be supposed not to feel the
frosty nights OF Russian spring.

THE USEFUL SKUNK.
Why Farmers Make Mistake In Destroy
ing the Little Animal.

Why Farmers Make n Mistake In Destroy
ing the Little Animal.
The much despised skunk is good
entomologist and the farmer and
gardener make great mistake in per-
scouting and destroying this humble
little animal. The few eggs he pur-
loins from the farmers hen yard very
poorly compensate for the great
number OF noxious insects he destroys.
In May. he is sometimes seen about
sundown, ON some elevated spot,
watching for the May beetle as he
wheels his droning flight, and he saves
him. too, not in the sense spoken Of in
the immortal elegy, but between his
teeth. He will sit an hour at time
gathering in the destructive beetles.
He is persistent hunter, and in his
aocturnal rambles moves along With
nose close to the ground; his sense of
smell is so acute not an insect, not a
larya, above ground or below, can es-
cape him; his eyes now glow with un-
usual brilliancy as he scans every leaf
and branch for the hidden prey. About
tobacco plantations his services are
considered valuable.
Several years ago tobacco was culti-
waited to some extent in the a adjoining
town Of Brighton. The writer, wish
ing to get some of the worms to rear
moths from, called on a gentleman
owning a plantation in the town, and
made known his object. The reply
was, Take all you can find; we want
to get rid of them.n In going through
the rows ! noticed many holes in the
in the ground, five or six inches deep,
but could not make out the object. as
they did not seem to have any thing
to do with the tobacco. | mentioned
the fact to the gentleman, who smiled
as he told me that it was done by
skunks to obtain the tobacco worms
that had left the plants and buried
themselves to undergo their trans
formations, but were forestalled by
the keen-scented animal and made TO

THE BowsER FAMILY.
Mr.. II. Buys a Dog, and Mrs. u. Tells All
About the Ugly Brute.


About the Ugly Brute.
Ever since our marriage Mr.. Bow
ser has been looking after a house
dog, and good share Of our troubles
have arisen over this fact. On a hun
dred different occasions / have asked
him what we wanted of dog, and on
hundred different occasions he has
raised his voice and replied:
What do we want Of dogP Did
you ever see family which amounted
to shucks which didn't keep a dogP
Nature gave US the dog TO protect us
to be sort Of companion. There
are people who can strike terror to a
dogs heart by one look, but ! am not

"And burglars the doggy

brute because Nature made him dogl
Under the circumstances ] have stated
we should probably owe our lives to
the faithful guardian"
He brought home a dog. 1t was a
dog with certificate Of character
from his last owner. He was guaran-
teed to be yigilant, trusAi, tidy, kind,
and to have special hankering after
the life-blood OF house-breakers. He
carried his head to the left as If trying
to see his left hind foot, and there was
a suspicious squint in his eyes. He
had been badly knocked about from
all appearances, but the boys who
brought him explained that this was
the result Of tackling an elephant and
coming of second best The beast
growled at me and snapped at the
baby as Mr.. Bowser brought him in,
and when l protested against the in
vasion was answered with:
mo wonder he growls! A dog knows
an enemy on sight. He feels that
you'd like to murder him, and he
properly resents it. Come here,
Rambo."
That night the dog had the run of
the lower part Of the house. We had
no sooner got to bed than he began to
howl Mr.. Bowser threatened him
from the head ofthe stairs, and then he
barked at intervals of five minutes for
an hour. Mr.. Bowser silenced him
after awhile, and / was just getting
asleep when heard the beast gurgling
and growing and worrying some
thing. ] wanted Mr.. Bowser to go
down stairs, but he utterly refused,
saying:
"He has probably got hold Of a
burglar, and i don't want to be ap-
pealed to to call him off just go to
sleep and let Rambo alone. We haven't
been as safe for years"
Next morning the beast bit the cook
in the leg as she went down, and the
minute the door was opened he lit out
for parts unknown. We soon dis
covered what he had been worrying.
1t was Mr., Bowser's new winter over
coat, and it was reduced to q roll of
strings and tatters.

asked, when Mr.. Bowser explained
| this fact.

He looks very simple-minded."
'Does he! Well, don't you fool
yourself. You may owe your life to
him yet. He's better than forty bur-
glar-alarms."
The canine deserved credit for one
thing. He slept soundly on the parlor
sofa all night On the second after
noon he got out, and little terrier
weighing eleven ounces ran him three
times around the house and finally
drove him into barrel partly filled
with plaster

occurrence. HE run, Of course. |
bought him for runner"
He whistled for Archimedes, as he
had named him, and the animal came
creeping in and hid under the lounge.
When routed out OF that he made
dive for Mr.. Bowser's feet, just in time
to trip him up and let him down with
jar that made the roof shake. The
scared brute then jumped into the crib
and lay down on baby's head, from
which position he was lifted to be flung
over the alley fence.

asked Mr.. Bowser.
Whose fault is itP" he demanded
You had that dog terrified as soon as
he struck the house. 1t was his NOR
tai fear of you which made him act SO.
II you don't have something awful
happen to you I'll miss my guess.
II wasn't week before he came
home with another canine. The beast
was understood, out at the elbows and
down-hearted. When ! asked what he
was good for, Mr.. Bowser replied:
'1f you knew any thing about dogs
you could see at glance. He's rat

''Does he terrify ratsp"
"Does he? In one week there won't
be rat on this whole square!"
Wouldn't 1t be as well to stand the
rats as the dogP"
That's you, exactly! That's
specimen Of your mercy It's a wonder
to me that such murderous feelings as
you carry in your heart don't meet
with fitting punishment"
The terrier didn't do any thing re-
markable for the first three days ex-
eept to fill up and sleep. On the fourth
day, as we were eating dinner, we
heard row in the back yard. and as
we got to the door we saw the terrier
penned up in corner Of the yard, tail
down and eyes rolling. and small rat
was keeping him there and having lots
of fun. The rodent skipped at sight
of us and the dog crawled under the
barn. laughed till fell down, but
Mr.. Bowser was very stern and digni-
fed. After he had pulled the terrier
out and flung him over the fence he
came back to me and said:
"Are you satisfied nowp"
THAT the dog is ratter?"
