The Great Heat Of Siberia.

Siberia is commonly regarded as
region of ice and cold, but according to
Mr.. George Kennan it is, in summer
time, about as hot country as there
his is on the face of the globe. In one of
remarkable Siberian narratives, given
in the Century Magazine, Mr.. Kennan
thus relates one of his hot weather ex-
perienceS:
"The farther we went up the 1rtesh,
the hotter became the weather, and
and the more barren the steppe, until
it was easy to imagine that we were in
an Arabian or q north African desert.
The thermometer ranged day after day
from so degrees to l0S degrees in the
shade; the atmosphere was suffocat-
ing; every leaf and every blade of
grass, as far as the eye could reach, had
been absolutely burned dead by the
fierce sunshine; great whirling COL
umns of sand 100 to $50 feet in height
swept slowly and majestically across
the sun-scorched plain; and we could
trace the progress of a single mounted
Kirghis FIVE miles away, by the cloud
of dust which his horses hoofs raised
from the steppe. I suffered intensely
from the heat and thirst, and had to
protect myself from the fierce sunshine
by swathing my body in for thick
nesses of blanket, and putting big
down pillow over my legs. I could
not hold my hand in that sunshine
five minutes without pain, and wrap
ping my body in four thicknesses of
heavy woollen blanketing gave me at
once 8 sensation of coolness. Mine
was the southern or sunny side of tfe
tarantas, and I finally became 50 ex-
hausted with the fierce heat, and had
strange feeling of faintness, nausea,
and suffocation, that I asked Mr..
Frust to change sides with me, and
give me brief respite. He wrapped
himself up IN blanket, put pillow
over his legs, and managed to endure
it until evening. Familiar as I sup
posed myself to be with Siberia, little
thought, when crossed the frontier,
that should find in it north African
desert, with whirling sand columns
aid sunshine from which I should be
obliged to protect my limbs with
blankets. laughed at a Russian officer
in Omsk, who told me that the heat
in the valley Of the Irtes'h was often
so intense as to cause nausea and faint
ing, and who advised me not to travel
between II O'Clock in the morning and
o'clock in the afternoon, when the
day was cloudless and hot. The idea
of having a sunstroke in Siberia, and
the suggestion not to travel there in
the middle of the day seemed to me so
preposterous that I could not refrain
from a smile of amusement. He as
sured me, however, that he was talk
ing seriously, and said that he had
seen soldiers unconscious for hours after
a fit of nausea and fainting, brought
on by marching in the sunshine. He
did not know sunstroke by name, and
seemed to think that the symptoms
which he described were peculiar
effects of the Irtes'h valley heat, but it
was evidently sunstroke that he had
seen."

A great deal of water drains off
through the wire cloth, aud atthe low
er end of the frame, just before the wire
cloth turns back to begin its work over
again, the rest of the water suddenly
disappears, and sheet Of paper comes
into existence.
This sudden change is caused by a
strong suction pump whose thirsty
mouths are placed right under the wire
cloth, and draw away the surplus
water.
The machine now picks up the sheet
of paper and carries it over series Of
heated cylinders which complete the
drying process.
The paper is now ready for polishing
or calendering machine is an upright
frame containing a number of highly
polished rollers, and as the paper passes
between one pair after another of these
rollers they give the polish that makes
it smooth and easy to write upon.
From the calendering machine the
paper is rolled upon frames in con-
tinuous sheet. Several of these frames
are placed in a cutting machine, which
first trims the sides and cuts the large
sheet into several of the desired widths,
then revolving knives cut across the
sheets, and the paper is ready for in
spection and packing.
five were to follow stick Of wood
though these changes we would need
to wait twelve hours before we could
see the work completed.

Came to See Christ.
Northern Christian Advocate. !

NOrtRern CnrlSClan Advocate.
Munkacsy's great painting, "Christ
Before Plate" has excited almost un-
iversal admiration, as it has been car
ried from city. to city and placed on
exhibition. Some people wonder if
the public exhibition of such picture
does any good. The manager of the
exhibition recently said on this point:
"We had the painting in Hamilton,
Canada, last fall and one DAY it hap
pened that my wife was alone at the
door: There came walking up rough,
rude man, evidently sailor from one
Of the lake boats. rs Christ here? :? he
asked roughly. My wife was so taken
back by the rude, blunt question that
she was SPECIFICS for a moment.
How much to see Christ?' he de-
nanded. She told him that the ad-
mission fee was q quarter. We'll, I
guess I'll have to pay it, be growled,
Quitting down piece of silver he
brushed past her. He sat down in
front Of the great picture and studied
it for a moment or two, then, by and
by, off came his hat. He studied it
longer, and then, leaning down, he
picked up the descriptive catalogue,
which he had let fall as he took his
seat. He read it over, studied the
painting anew, dropping his face in
his hands at intervals. And so he
stayed there for a whole hour. When
he came out there were tears in his
eyes, and in a voice full Of sobs he said
to my wife: Madam, I came here to
see Christ because my mother asked
me to. I am q rough man sailing on
the lakes, and before I went on this
cruise my mother wanted me to see
this picture, and I came in to please
her. I never believed in any such
thing, but the man who could paint a
picture like that he must have be-
lieved in it. There is something in it
that makes me believe it too. Madam,
God helping me, I am changed man
from to-day"

Kansas Catfish in Luck.
from the Kansas CITY Times.

Kansas gets an average of about So
600 year with which to stock her
streams with imported fish. The only
real good that can be discerned as a re-
suit of the outlay is that the catfish are
little fatter than they used to be be-
fore the appropriations commenced.

The Longest English Word.
New York Sun.

Your correspondent, A. D. S., of
Sackville, n. B., who writes about Car
dinal Newman and the longest word in
the English language, which he says is
Notwithstanding, probably
never ran up against "Disestablish-
mentarianism" in connection with
English church matters. It don't do to
be too fly. TOURNAMENT.
LONGER WORDS.
To the Editor of the Sun:-Several OF
your correspondents have lately SUBJ
mitted, as entitled to the honor of
being "the longest word in the English
language" the first three of the words
following, in competition wherewith l
send fourth:
/. Dis-pro- -por-tion-a-ble-
.. Hon-or-if-i-ca-bil-i-tud-in-i-ty.
3. Observation-Disclosures.
4. Un-pro-pre-an-te pen ult-l-mat-l-
ca-bil-i-ty.
The meaning of the last is obvious,
and may be predicated of the great ma
jority of words in every language, since
it applies to all that have no "propre-
antepenult"; that is, to every word OF
less than six syllables. The stem of
the word, of course, is "ult," the re-
maiuder being an aggregation of pre-
fixes and suffiXes. D. G.
To the Editor of the Sun:-"Sack-
villen and Tournament" make me
tired. Several years ago the same thing
was up, and, as near as I can remen-
Der, the word brought out by the Sun
then was Observation-Disclosures
ianologist"-in comparison with which
their words are nowhere.

A postal card bearing the singular
and touching inscription,
"My Dear Mamma

was found in the twelve O'Clock mall
to-day Of course it went to the post
masters desk. On the other side was
the appeal of a little girl to her mamma
in heaven. 1t was in a little cramped
and tremulous hand, as though the
little hand that guided the pen was
nervous through suffering or tears. 1t
read as follows
