\ Oaestion of Dtsrl.li~s-

German was boasting in tho pres once of some Russians about tho obe- dience and discipline Of the German army. citing numerous inslauces from the war between France and Germany.
 'Gentlemcn," replied ono of the Russians. what you say about the dis cipline in the German army amounts to nothing at ali when compared with what occurs continually in the Russian army. But l will merely rcciie one instance ot what occurred at the be- ginning of the reign of the Czar Nicho- las. when the discipline in the Russian army was comparatively lax. At that time. before the telegraph was discov- cred. the Russians used signal stations, which were n few miles apart Tho soldier made the signal which was re- peated by tho soldier at tho next station. and thus the news was convey cd thousands of miles.
 One day a soldier nj u station near St Petersburg did not see the signal iu time, and, dresding the punishment that awaited him for negligence, de- iiberalcly hanged himself on the signal tower. The soldier at the next station mistopS this for signal. so he deliberately bat promptly hanged him. sell. also. In consequence of the dis cipiine which prevails in tho Russian army. next day it was discovered tlia, all the soldiers at tho signal stations from St Petersburg to Warsaw had hanged themselves on their signal towers Of course. much stricter discipline prevails Il, present and"
 That will do," replied the German, "I give it up. Texas Siftings.

Modern Mumwiarafio~

The facts disclosed in tho process of unrolling mnmmy present in striking contrast the difference of the modc of cmpalming pursued bv the ancient Egyptian and that carried out in mod ern times. Now tho embalmer can conduct in minutes a preserving pro- cess which cost the Egyptians as many days. and II after his process Is com pletcd he should iake pains to seal up the preserved body with all the skill possible to modern art he might leave human body so perfect in regard to natural form aud color that after 5000 years not Ii lineainent need be wanting Tor its Identification that would not have satisfed even contemporary of the dead person. We arc inclined now to experience regret that in Egyptian times the art was not ad vanced enough to leave the emhalmcd in such likeness of life. But whether it Is worth the trouble in these days to revive the art, in the more perfect type of 1t. for the edification and satisfaction of the men and women Of thirty centuries heace. is wide question. Cremation Is, at this moment. becoming the fashion, but possibly some persons would rather be so immortalized and preserved for scien titic study. like William Gilbert's flies in amber. shining in eternal sepulchres.

Stay pr His S0rrows.

He was dressed like cowboy and a wild look of despair had settled upon his face, wh..e his conntcnaacc, as he glided slowly into tho sarctum and seated himself mournfully upon the orthcast corner of the exchange table, was pail, sul picture. His glaring e,es indicated sn ovcrpowering sorrow or an unoigcsted dinner.
 ..Is this the sanctum sanctorum?"
 "S,ruck it the first jump out of the box" sa.d the editor, as he looked mp from his proof-rcading
 s'This is the place where tho brainy mon give their intellects roper"
 s.The very thing"
 'And do you know that winter is almost here?"
 "Therc has been slight prejudice that way.'
 '.That the crimson-tinged leaves have been mournfully floating from the trees and signing like human things, as they left the branches naked. That, like memories of the long distant past, they have charmed the senses for a moment and then sunk into oblivion .''
 Shouldn't wonder
 ..The symphony of the winter winds is weird, wild music in my ears. Ii is sad, sweet sweep of melody divine that charms the listening soul.'
 "Wcll?a
 'sI was about to tell you. My life Is like winter. Through the halls of memory there comes whisper tha, tells that the summer of my existence has flown into the depths of the irre- trievable past, and that autumn, the heyday of the year, has wrapped the mantle of the flying years about it and is no more. Like the faint odor ot forgotten flowers, they arc gone"
 "Yes."
 "Did you ever look over musty packet of letters and come upon spray of mignonette that brought back to you the touch of fingers that traced the words?"
 .sHardly."
 sI have. My life has been bitter mockcry and l have tried to drown the past in the flowing bowl. Such is my purpose now. l wish to stay the flood of sorrows that presses upon my spirit. But alas! l have only five cents. A glass of whisky costs ten. Will you loan me n nickel!"
 The stairs to tho street were not long, but they were steep. and when he reached the pavement the past sorrows were cngulfed in the flood of present pain.

 The men obcyed. and Godena dis- mounted with pistol In hand. Ned, held in his place by his bonds, looked him boldly in the face. Advancing q pace tho miscrcant aimed at him, changing his aim from time to timo 10 distress tho prisoner. But Ned did not give the slightest sign of fear At last the pistol exploded and the bull tore through the feshy part of his shoulder.
 ''Onew said Godcna, producing au- other pistol. "i nun going to hit you on the other side"
 Again he fred and the other shoul- der was torn by the bnll.
 You black-hearted houndr' cried Ned, "if you think to wiring a single cry from mo you arc mistaken. Go on. savage and complete your bloody work"
 Godena. with the grin of a fiend, took two other pistols from tho hands of one of the mon. Again he fired, iu- tending 70 pierce the arm of the young sailor, but this time he missed.
 Poor practice" said Ned. .Try again. my dear fellow"
 The fourth pistol cracked. and Ned gave a start and a shiver, for his left arm had been pierced. Godena was very angry. for in spite Of the torture, he had not been able to wiring a groan from the gall nt young man. Reload ing his pistols carefully, he stepped close to his prisoner. and again and again touched him with the muzzle of the cooked pistols over the heart, upon the forehead, in every vital part but he did not finch.
 'Why don't you end 1t. cowardly dog?" cried Ned.
 "I will end it, replied Godena, stepping back single pace. Thus Manuel Godeua avenges himself"
 Hc raised the pistol in his right hand to a level with the heart of the prison CT. and was about to pull the triggcr, when rifle cracked on the mountain side nbove them and Manuel Godena, shot through the heart fell upon his face. dead. At the same tune a score of stockmen and rancheros chased down the canyon, and tho bandits turned in flight pursued by the herd riders, led by Senor Mendez. Then Ned tainted from loss of blood. and when he came back to life his bonds had been removed and he lay upon the green sod. his head pillowed upon the knee Of Isola Mcndez
 Do not move" she said softly. ''Yo te amor q love you).
 Ned Wilton recovered from his wounds, but not soon enough to sail in the Vcsper. Indeed. he never left Chili. md is now rich ranchero. and the name of his wife was once Isola Mendez. -- Boston Globe.

The game of shadow bun differs vcry
 materially from blind m1n's bun. but 1t is equally as amusing. A large piece of white linen should he fastened neatly up at ono end ot roum. 50 that 1t hangs smoothly.
