Nothing on earth equals in magnifcence
the barbaric splendor of those old czars.
I visited the museum where they showed
me with great pride the products Of the
Russian mines. Here was the largest
nugget Of gold in the world; the largest
lump Of silver, the largest specimen of
malachite, and the largest lapis lazuli,
with hundred and one other thing from
the Siberian mines.
I saw the saddles and caparisons of
some of these old warriors. One, I re-
member, had large saddle blanket, as
you might call it, made of cloth of gold.
At distance it looked perfectly white,
and it was large enough to cover the
greater portion Of ths body Of the war
horse. A closer inspe. ton showed that
it was covered all over with diamonds of
the purest water. The larger ones were
sewn on in the form Of stars anG other
figures, but the entire surface was Gov
cred with these gems.
The blanket was worth thousands and
thousands Of dollars.
Then, in one of GATHERINGS palaces,
saw columns Of pure amber, with the
walls Of entire rooms covered with the
same costly stuff. N
And yet, in other countries of Europe,
amber has become 30 scarce that it is al
most impossible to secure pure article,
and imitation amber is used for jewelrv.

A Fittsburger, who recently returned
from trip to Europe, was relating some
Of his experiences to group Of relatives
and intimate friends the other night, and
the recital proved interesting enough to
all present, but particularly to an aunt
of the voyager, an old lady Of 10 odd,
who had never been at sea.
81 think that nothing impressed me SO
much," said the traveller, "as burial at
sea which / witnessed on the voyage
home The poor fellow who died was a
sailor-he fell from yard and crushed
his skull upon the deck. The funeral
service took place in the afternoon of a
warm June day. It was inexpressibly
solemn. The sea was as calm as the
Ohio is today-hardly ripple on the
waves, hardly cloud in the sky.
"A clergyman, who happened to be on
board, read the Episcopal service for the
burial of the dead at sea, and very beau
tiful it was The coffin lay in the middle
of the group Of his fellow seamen, with
the passengers in greater circle beyond
them. A gangway had been opened in
the bulwarks to allow the launching of
the coffin into the sea.
"There the coffin lay, with the union
jack wrapped around it. The sea seemed
to have grown more calm than ever. 1t
was like polished glass. Not sign Of
life over it; not ship in sight; not even
gull or flying fish to break the barren
ness of that great watery desert, only
the great steamer clearing her way"---
"But, John" broke in the aged aunt,
couldn't you see a tree-not even a
tree?"
The irruption of laughter at this point
knocked pathetic situation into a
cooked hat. The story of the burial at
] sea has never been MISUNDERSTANDING

AFRAID OF BANKS.
A Divorced wife Loses $4,000 Allmon!
Hidden In Her Bosom.

A Divorced wife Loses $4,000 Allmony
Hidden In Her bosom.
Why is it that the majority of women
arc 80 afraid OF q bank? asks the New
York Star. They arc only satisfied with
money; checks, b%ank-books, or other cv-
idcncc OF money do not please them.
| When l read about the oma q few
days ago who put her money under the
waist Of her dress and then lost it. I
was reminded of q similar loss, only of
a larger amount, which occurred in this
city a few years ago. After much liti-
CATION in the Supreme Court IN ill-used
wife got u decree of divorce and about
$4,000 alimony. The lawyers and the
wife and her mother me in n of the
small rooms of the courthouse and set
tied. The husbands lawyer had o GER
titled check for the alimony, but the
vito wouldn't touch it; she wanted
money. In vain did her own counsel
assure her that the check was better
than money; it vas so much safer. Her
husbands treatment of her had been
cruel, and he had fought her application
for divorce in such q mean way that she
had come to distrust every thing he
proposed. She believed that the check
was q trick, and she wouldn't have it.
So the two lawyers went out, got the
check cashed, and came back with the
money. She took it, carefully deposited
it in her bosom, smilingly observing
that no thieves could get hold Of it
there.
She and her mother left the courthouse
t--l A--C A. Cs~kI u~n-@ 01vo%
for Forty-second street. When they got
home the money was gone. Womanlike,
they believed that the judge who de-
creed the alimony could in some way
make the loss good, and they rushed
back to the courthouse and obtained an
interview with him. he is n OF tho
tenderest-hcarted men in the world, and
he has since described the meeting as
one of the most painful he ever had. The
loss of the money rendered them abso-
lutely penniless, and there were two
children whose custody had been given
to the mother, the father being worth
less in every respect except pecuniarily.
Tho wife cried and tho mother sobbed.
The Judge explained to them that the
case was closed; that final judgment
had been rendered and complied with;
that they had insisted upon taking bills
instead OF certified check, which had
been offered to them, and that they had
only themselves to blame for the loss.
He didn't convince the excited and heart
broken women by such arguments.
Finally, there being no Other way of
getting rid of them, the judge agreed
to send to the husband and lay the case
before him. He was not called upon in
any manner to do this, nor, in fact, had
he any right to; but his magnanimity
and pity caused him to. I eve heard
that he succeeded, however, and am
under the impression that the wife
never got any thing more from her hus-
band. He had paid the courts decree
and he let her go-to starve, If it should
so haDDen.

you will, and lllremember 1t" ''Well,"

TENDER AS A BABE.
That II Why an Irish Barber sympsthised
with His Victim.

That II Why IN Irish BARBER 5ympathisod
with His Victim.
The village of Garrison's, on the Hud-
son, is the home OF o few wealthy city
people during the heated term, says the
New York Sun. Garrison's is not popu-
lous enough to support regular barber,
and so this very necessary function has
been assumed by the baggage-man at
the Hudson river railroad station, who
is known as Dan. 1t is q funny sight to
see a lawn-tennis dandy with yellow
shoes lying in IN ordinary armchair,
his head over the back and resting on
the book in which Dan keeps his ac-
counts, and which lies upon a desk.
For scraping tho jowls of the city board
crs the baggage-man earns many a dime
between trains.
This reminds the writer of an expo.
rionce in the Arran islands, on the west
coast of Ireland, last February. Hehad
three weeks growth of beard on his
face, and he hunted over the three ISL
ands for a barber, at last finding one
who was willing to undertake the job.
The Arran barber had shaved
o Yankee, and was overjoyed ut
the chance. He was twenty years
old, and had been engaged all his life
ut building stone walls. He sharpened
his razor on q piece of smooth Tag.
stone, and seated his victim in q kitchen
chair. One man held the patients head.
and o dozen interested spectators looked
on, for it was an altogether u~nprccedent-
ed event in the islands The lathering
wal done with q piece Of hard brown
soap, which was rubbed over the face.
Grabbing q handful Of hair On top Of
the patients head, the stone-wall
builder flourished the razor in the air
and exclaimed:
care We all ready, sir?"
"All right" was the trembling reply.
Down came the razor with q sweep like
that of q scythe. The implement was
evidently as full of teeth as o buzzsaw.
1t tore the hair out by tho roots. It
raised the victim bolt upright as If a
cannon cracker had exploded. Tears
gathered in his eyes. His hands clinched
convulsively, and a rivulet of blood ran
down his cheek. The butcher went to
the window to wipe his weapon cloan.
While standing there he looked up and
exclaimed sympathetically:
sShure, sir, ye have a face as tindher
as q little babbyi"
The shave was concluded three weeks
later in the city Of Galway.
