Wsus1iy Enuowed with tho Porfectio0 Of
Physical Qualities.
Ali novel readers-and they are
about 80 per cent. OF all the people
who read books at sall-must have
been struck with the fact that the
heroes and heroines of fiction are
usually endowed with the very per-
lection of physical qualities, even
though their morals be somewhat

should bring them directly within
the purview of the criminal law. In
TACT, 1t may be said in general way
that the bigger scoundrel and villain
q man is, in novel, the more closely
does he resemble the Apollo Belye-
dere in outward semblance; and the
more sensual and deceitful and base
q woman is, the more is she fashioned
In the physical likeness of some me-
diByal saint, or of some woman who
seems to exude goodness and virtue.
II the novelists... are right the
physiognomists and phrenologists and
the great detectives and students OF

The latter insist, with complete
unanimity, that there. is well-de

and women with certain shaped head
and faces, and with certain kinds OF
eyes and facial expressions, make uI

just as unnatural to find crime unas

ties as to'-fnd grapes on thorns OF
figs on thistles. 1t is true that there
are exceptions to this general rule,
but they are not numerous enough to
impinge in any degree upon the geD
erality Of the rule.
Once in while an Antinous may
turn burglar or a Cornelia may be
convicted of shoplifting, but the
cases are so rare as to cut no marked
figure in the annals Of crime If il

not only a heredity in crime, which
stamps itself intellectually upon the

+ THE EMPRESS OF RUSSIA.

The Empress of Russia is as slender
and petite as the Car is strong and
massive. She is not beautiful and no.
homely. Her nose is slightly retrousse,
but her features are otherwise we'll
formed, and her eyes are bright ana
kindly. She is one Of the most beaut;
full dancers i'll Russia, and she is as fond
of dancing as Danish country girl.
AT the winter palace in st. Peters.
burgh are given each year some of the
most wonderful balls in the world.
Seven thousand people can live in this
palace, and tie thousands of dancers
trip the light fantastic toe over floors of
ebony, of rosewood and ivory. Now
and then the Empress appears at thes.
dances in her royal robes. She wears n
gorgeous crown which fairly blazes wi tn
diamonds.
Her necklace is of many strands OF
the purest pearls, and her vest is mass
of rubies, sapphires and diamonds, put
together so that they blaze like fire.
One of her gowns is of emerald velvet
with q train of white velvet, which is
fairly covered with gold embroidery,
and the front of which is linked with
strands of the purest coral.
The jewels on one of these robes
would make an American village rich,
and their value surpasses computation.
In the treasury at Moscow saw the En-
presses coronation robe. The train Of
this was OF woven silver, and there was
enough of woven silver cloth in the robe
to have carpeted an ordinary parlor.

CHOLERA NOT SO FATAL.
DR.. Elmer Lee Says 1t Is Not Under
stood by the Patients

New YORK. Oct. 31.-In an inter
view last evening DR.. Elmer Lee OF
Chicago, who arrived in this city on
Friday from Hamburg and is now b
guest at the Hotel Savoy, said:
Cholera is not a fatal disease. Those
who heed the lesson of sanitary living
are not in danger of contracting the
disease.
"The horror Of this disease as enter
tanned by the people is largely pro-
duced by mistaken conception OF the
nature and progress Of cholera and by
the knowledge that until recently the
treatment has not been satisfactory
Could the lesson be generally taught
and understood that cholera is filth
disease and localized in the few DAYS
to the bowels, and, further, could they
be made to see that often if the bowels
were cleaned of the filth at the begin
ming of the attack the disease would
be easier to handle"
In order to be able to teach the
lesson that cholera is not fatal dis
ease the experiments were made as
soon as the doctor could reach St.
Petersburg with results that were salts

TELEPHONE POSSIBILITIES.

Albany Times: Until the recent open
ing of the telephone line between New
York and Chicago, the greatest distance
over which the telephone had been sue
cesSfully operated was about 500 miles.
Sound had been transmitted over three
times that distance, but only occasional
words would be heard With the pre-
sent line, however, the tests have been
eminenty successful. 1t is only neCeS-
sary TO speak Il little above a whisper
ana the words pass over the line with
startling diStinctnesS. The line is
within d furlOng OF $50 miles in length
1t runs through Harrisburg, Altoona
and PittSburg, Pa, Youngstown and To
leuO, ONO, and South Bend, Ind. The
wire, Which is Il quarter OF an inch III
diameter, weighs 100 pounds to the
mile. 1ne WIre OF the line that runs to
Buffalo only weighs lSU pounds to the
mile. The Chicago wire is Il double
metallic circuit and weighs III all about
$4,000 pounds. There is no difference
III the appearance of the uanSmitter.
1t is the same little instrument, undoubt-
eddy one OF the greatest inventions OF
modern times. Like all IOng-diStance
phones, it is arranged on an oak table.
The working apparatus is inclOSed i'll

of the speaking tube is longer, and ar

face. Ii the line to Chicago is profitable
it will be extended to san Francisco.

Of the pOrkerS that are slaughtered in
the stock-yards OF Chichgo for their use,
and the western fnanCierS can catch the
cries OF the unhappy lambs that are

effected by the telephone recall to the

Of ear-UuInpeCS, who, i'll describing the
extraordinary results produced by their
use, declared: There was old Mrs. f.,
who was SO very deaf that she might
have worn a percussion cap aud been
knocked on the head without hearing it
snap. Well, she bought her d horn,
and the very next day she heard from
her husband at Botany Bay" Prof.
Bell predicts that the whole civilized
world will soon be in telephone COM
munication.

The President BECK at His Desk.

WASHINGTON, Oct. 31.-The Presi-
dent resumed his Official duties at the
White House to-day, and devoted most
of the forenoon to the consideration
and dispatch of routine bushes re-
curing his action, great deal of
which accumulated during the last
few weeks. Attorney-General Miller
was his only visitor during the fore
noon, and he induced the President to
act in a number of pardon cases. 1t is
expected that the official routine of
the White House will be fully re-
established before the close of the
present week.
