Paid Off With Tin Tags.

John lckiin, u Swedish steerage passenger on the steamship La Bourgogne, steppedupt to the money changers stand ill Castle Garden, New York, and laid q double handful of tin disks on the counter. They were the tin tags from plug tobacco and caps from milk bottles. He wanted them exchanged for bills, and when told by Banker Scully that they were worthless look of blank astonishment spread over his face He said that he md been employed in holy-stoning the deck and in other work while on his way over, :ind be, fore he left the ship he had been paid off in what he was told was American silver. It finally dawned upon him that he had been sold, but he laughed it off yood-naturedly as he pulled out purse well-fiiled with gold and secured the bills that he haa asked for.

Adrift in an Open Boat.

Jessie Clayton, of South Norwalk, ran into Roton Point and landed q man whom he had the day before taken from a capsized yawl, which he found drifting with the tide about three miles from shore. The man refused to give his name, but said he lived at Sound Beach. He said that the boat was a recent purchase, ,and that he started for a short trip down the Sound. The ballast was movable, and sudden gust of wind threw the little vessel over On her beams end, but after great difficulty he succeeded in fighting her. When taken aboard the steamer the man was stiff from cold, nearly starved and completely ex- hausted. The captain removed his wet cloth ing and put the man to bed. He thinks that when rescued by Capt. Lowndes he had been in his perilous position about eight hours. His clothing was wet through and the ther- mometer registered only eight degrees above ZcrO

IN A RUSSIAN PRISON.
Herman Kempinski, an American
 Exile to Siberia.

Samuel Loewith has received letter from Mrs. Herman kcmpinski, dated Konin. Rus. sin, confirming the reports of her husbands imprisonment there. 1t appears from the letter that the cause of the confinement is no reasonable remarks concerning the Russian Government or complicity in any overt acts of hostility to the government, but his eva sion of the military service required of every Russian subject. According to the Russian law every subject who reaches the age of 19 and is pronounced physically able is required to enter the Russian army and be ready to do duty until he reaches the age of 35. Kempinski left his native land when he was IT years of age and came to this country. Upon his arrival in New York he went directly to Peoria, H., where friends of his had pre- viously located. He worked in that city for three years, when he married and started for this city. This occurred in 1873. In 1875 he was naturalized and became Q citizen oi the United States He was in the wholesale when he entered into partnership with C. w. Pease, and the firm conducted two stores in this city and one in Ansona.
 In the spring MT. Kempinski closed up his business affairs, and, with his wife and two children, departed for Konin, Russia, on a visit to his parents and friends in his native place. MT. Rem mpinski, being citizen of the United States, had no idea that the Russian Government would attempt to punish him for neglecting to perform the military service re- quired of every Russian subject. Nothing oc- cured to cause him to feel alarmed until the 24th of December last when the Russian off, cials descended upon him at his fathers home, arrested him and placed him in prison at: Kalish. Mrs. Kempinsk has already spent more than half of the fortune her hus- band amassed in this country and which he took with him to Russia. Unless the United States Goverment effectualy intervenes in her behalf Kempinski will remain imprisoned in Kalsh until May, when he will be exiled to Siberia Messrs. Loewith and B. Klein will go to Washington immediately after the in- nuguration andlay the case before Secretary of State Blaine and endeavor to save MT. Kempinski from the imprisonment which threatens him. Several cases of this kind have occurred in Austria and Germany, but the United States Government intervened on the ground that the parties were citizens of this country and effected their release.

OUR RELATIONS WITH CANADA
| The Dominion Government Attacked by the Opposition.
 In the House of Commons at Ottawa the | Hon. Wilfred Laurier, the Opposition leader

In the House of Commons at Ottawa the Hon. Wilfred Laurier, the Opposition leader, introduced the following resolution:
 That in view of the rejection by the Sen ate of the United States of the treaty of 1888 and the unfortunate and regretable differ ences existing between Canada and the United States on the fisheries question, this house is of the opinion that steps should be taken at an early date by the government of Canada for the satisfactory adjustment of such diff culties and the securing of unrestricted free dom in the trade relations of the two coun- tries, and that, in any negotiations entered upon for such purposes, Canada should be directly represented by some one nominated by its government.
 That in the meantime and to prevent such negotiations being unfavorably entered upon and to afford evidence of the anxious desire of Canada to promote good feeling and re- move all possible subjects of controversy, that this House is of opinion that the modus vivendi proposed on behalf of the British Government to the Government of the United States with respect to the fisheries should be continued in operation during the ensuing fishing season."

Vatican party The Indictment charges them
with having during the recent municipal elections
in this city, forged ballots and with having spent
81 900 in purchasing votes. OF course, Signor
Crispi insinuates that the money thus alleged to
have been spent in electoral corruption was
derived from the "Opere pie " mentioned above,
and finds therein an additional reason for the
confscation by the Government Of the ecclesiastical
property in question. 1t is the knowledge OF the
imminence of this act Of spoliation that has rem
dered the recent utterances of the Holy Father
so exceedingly bitter against the Quirlnal.
Il is strange that the Pope should have selected
lust this moment for seeking to effect reforms
in the rnonastic orders abroad. Much TO the dis
pust ~ the good fathers Leo XIII insists that they
sball return TO the strict observance Of the rules
established by their founders. Those who have
tal,en vows of ascetism must lead ascetic life,
and those who have taken vows of poverty must
no noor not only in name With this object he
has nrobibited the order of Franciscans in Ba-
varia from brewing the magnificent beer for which
they have been famous for two centuries past
and the quaint old Franciscan beer-cellars, SO
well known to all visitors to Munich, have closed
their doors 1t was for the same purpose that
the Pope brought much pressure to bear on the
Grand Prior OF the Order of the Carthusians,
when the hitter recently received an offer from
an English syndicate for the purchase of the
nonopoly of manufacturing the Chartreuse lqueur
As the statutes Of the order in question prescribe
extreme poverty and prohibit all barter, sale or
ACQUISITION Of property, Leo XIII was anxious
that the English offer should be accepted, and
that the manufacture and sale of the cordial by
the monks should cease. His efforts, however,
did not meet with success.
American visitors TO Rome will be interested to
learn that the Government are about to begin
pulling down the hideous and dirty tenement
houses which divide the Borgo-Nuovo from the
Borco-veceho, the two small streets which lead
from the Bridge and the Castle Of st. Angelo to
St. Peters. The disappearance of these houses
and the throwing of the two streets into one
will form a magnificent boulevard, and enable
one. for the first time, to obtain a fun view Of
the grandeur Of the cid Basilca. Hitherto it
has been impossible TO do this. except from the
Pope's private gardens in the Vatican.
