Boston, Dec. 2S.-COunt Trau Schaw-
olof, a lieutenant 10 the Russian navy. is
stranded IN this city. The story OF his
trouble is a romantic one. He was at
tached to the frigate Sebastopol and was
engaged in exercising the crew when the
ship was off the Grand Banks. He fell
from the main toDsail yard arm, a dis
lance of some sixty five feet, to the deck
and was taken into the Cockpit In an I'M
conscious condition. The vessel steamed
for Halifax, where the injured man was
conveyed 10 a hospital in that city. There
the attending physician claimed hat he
could not live over ioItY-eight hours.
Money was left with the hospital author
ties to bury him, together with papers for
three years back pay. Contrary to ex-
pectations the count recovered and after
fourteen days was discharged. He started
to find a legal representative OF his
country who could furnish him money
for his certificates, with which to return
home. He visited all the important Can
adian cities, hut found no Russian repre-
sentauves at any of them.
He then started for Boston. c. F.
Wynn, the Russian vice consul, was
Obliged to send the papers to the Russian
minister at Washington before any ad-
vance could be made. At present the
count is an object OF charity. Two phi
lauthropic police lieuteuants secured ac-
commodations for him at the Sherman
house. When Count rrau Schawoloff
arrived in Boston he wandered about the
city hungry and without money, but
clothed in all the splendor OF a lieutenant's
uniform Of the Russian navy. He wore
a helmet hat of glittering beauty and
high legged boots, while his uniform was
a perfect military fashion plate. He was
hooted by street gamins until in his des
perstion he rushed into a secondhand
clothing store and exchanged his clothes,
which included a $40 ieweled dagger. for
a cheap i'll fitting suit. The count is emit
tied to nearly 81 900. which he will obtain
as soon as the necessary formalities are
gone through with. He belongs in st.
Petersburg. to which city he will return
as soon as his funds reach him, He ex-
poets on his arrival in his native city to
be examined for a commanders position.

THE SENATOR'S SIDEWALK.

That the city council clearly went back
on Its own construction of the ordinance
in regard to grades is plainly evidenced by
the following resolution which was adopted
at a meeting subsequent to that at which
they passed the new grade ordinance over
the mayors veto:
The residence portion of the city shall
be construed to mean all those parts or
portions of the city where the city council
does not require she sidewalk to be twelve
feet wide, aud wherever the city council
orders a Sidewalk twelve feet In width it
shall be laid on the established grade.
While no one questions the councils
right to rescInd any resolution which it
may have previously adopted, it is rather
remarkable that without resembling it and
the very first time an opportunity arose
to put it in operation the council should
give permission to Senator Carey to lay e
twelve foot walk to whatever grade might
suit his convenience or fancy. The reason
that the suggestions OF the mayors veto
message were not adopted was that the
city council did not wish to acknowledge
that he was right. Thev arbitrarily shut
him of, but subsequently, realizing that
his Judgment was correct, they adopted
the resolution which We have quoted.
The reason that sctuates Senator Carey
10 making the grade he has established
about the opera house is found in the
fact that he would not 20 to the expense
of lowering the floors of his storerooms so
that the sidewalks might conform to the
established grade without the necessity of
a step at the entrances, To suit this
little economical streak on the part OF the
senator the council is perfectly willing to
allow him to throw out the grade on all
sides of him.
Ii he now determines to establish a
toboggan slide on his md air pavement
the council will doubtless prove equally
subseryieut to his wishes.

IT is being already stated hat the
movement to induce Senator Carey to
lower his sidewalks to grade finds its
handspring In politics. 1t was politics,
perhaps, which induced Councilman
jerks to order one end of the walk lowered
so that the fire plug at Seventeenth
street and Capitol avenue could be utilized
in case of fire. As the walk was origi,
nally set tine plug could not have been
used bur although Councilman jerks is
of the same political faith as the United
States senator. he did what he believed TO
be his duty.
