Russian GaNauts.

As humanity does not live by brains
alone, the Young officers of the Guards
play the most prominent role in the
salons. and if they do not shine 10y
their refined culture, they take their
revenge by their gallantry. In this
social function they give proof of that
passionate folly and pgucely prodi-
galty which Madame dc Slacl immor-
tllized by saying, "Ihe desire of the
Slav would set town on fire. You
may still see grand seigueurs, true
sons of Potemkin, playing with the
impossible in order TO satisfy the ca
prices of the lady of their heart. One
will by telegraph send for cart-load
of roses from Nice. another for a cele-
brated orchestra from Warsaw. The
following story is told of gentleman
poet who died few years ago. He
was talking in tho presence of a
lady of a kirgheoz musician whom he
had met during journey beyond the
Ural, in tho steppo of Orenburg-ono
of those camel-driyers who play their
antique Asian melodies on long reed
pipes. The lady expressed regret at
never having heard these harmouies
of the desert The poet immediately
wrote for his k,rgheez to be sent from
the other end of Russia, aud then de-
Spatehed him to play before the lady.

When faucies haunt the brain,
When even the sigh Of the sleeper
Sounds Ike sob Of pain.
a sense of awe and wonder
may never well dehue,
For the thoughts thst come in the shadows
Never come In the shine.
The old clock down in the parlor,
Like a slsepless mourner grieyes,
And the seconds drip in the silence
As the rain drips from the leaves
And l think of the hands that signal
The hrs there IN the gloom,
And wonder what angel watchers
Wait in the dalk-ned room.
Aud think Of the smiling faces
That used TO watch and wait,
TIL the click of the clock was answered
by the click Of the opening gate,
They are not there now In the evening
Morning or uoon-uot there
Yet l know that they keep their vigil
And wait Tor me somewhere.

wink the Sterncr Sex.

Let us consider some exhibits of de-
mureness. Some time ago a young
society woman went on the stage She
made a failure and returned TO private
life at once. She was generally COM
meudcd by the critics for her evident
gentility and innocent iucapacity.
She got sympathy without praise. The
other day was having luncheon in a
cafe on Broadway, says Clara Belle in
the New Orleans Times Democrat A
Notwithstanding man paced up and
down by the windows, staring ia inn
patiently, and coming 10 the door
every few minutes to take "a glance
about. He was cross-eyed and had a
nose like Holsters claw, weighed
about 10 pounds and limped. Taken
altogether he was quite as unattractive
as a man could well be. After an hour
of waiting this man entered the place
at last with a tall, slim, handsome
young woman. She was our old friend
the unsuccessful society actress. The
two took places at table and pro-
ceeded TO be "spooney." 1t was an
awful case Of spoons. The cross
eyed man was beside himself with ex-
element and JOY And that young
woman led him on in a way that could
not be exceled by Cleopatra herself
