THE SEIZURE or srALEns.
Explanation Given by Russians of tho
Occurrence.

81. PETERSBURG, Oct. 81. - Tho
oDioers' A!eSaenger publishes today tho
hrst authoritative version OF the
Russian capture OF sealing vessels In
the Pacific ocean. IL says SIX vessols
were seized 1T points eighteen to twenty
miles from, the Russian coast, not from
thirty to forty, as asserted. Tho cap
lures were nearly all made outside OF
the territory OF the water boundary.
This Is explained by the fact that the
sealers, seeing the Russian cruisers
approaching, fed, and the cruisers
chased them. Only vessels proved to
have been sailing in Russian watora
were seized. The conduct OF the Rus.
sian officers was blameless. The
British nag was not insulted. Tho
crews OF the captured vessels were well
treated, but when they became quarrel
some and insultei Russian officers,
order had TO be restored by force Of
arms.

The Various Dozens.

The child is taught at school that a
dozen means twelve every time, but
when the child grows into a man he
finds that a dozen is very elastic
term. A bakers dozen is thirteen,
and so is q publishers or news
agents in many parts Of the world.
In some sections q dozen of fish
means twenty six. and there are
other anomalies of this kind. But to
find dozen indicating anything
from two to fifty it is necessary to 20
to the earthenware trade. Here the
size and weight ofarticles decides how
many make q dozen, and in jugs,
bowls, plates and so on there are two,
four six, eight or more to the dozen.
A dozen composed of twelve articles
is very unusual thing in the whole
sale pottery trade, and as q result
there are few clerkships more difficult
to hold than in this line. tried the

TO have to find the cost of 500 ar

mamma as she kissed her goodbye.

swer Now on the way to the but
ton store there was a fruit stand and
Bel often used to look at it with long
ing eyes. This morning she saw
something she had not seen for long
tlme-great beautiful red bananas.
II Bel liked anything in the world it
was banana She wondered how
much they would cost Then she
thought she would ask" Five cents. -
Why, she had just cents in her
fat fingers that very minute! Before
you could think she hadn't cents at
ALL but had the banana instead. Do
you think she went right home? Not
she. She marched straight to the
button store and standing on tiptoe
reached her sample above the counter
saying: my mother wants a spool
of silk like this The lady smiled
down on the mite matched the silk
carefully. and handed it to her.
Flank you" said Bel; she never for
gets her manners. But little girl"
called the lady, didn't your mamma
send any money for the silkp"
'Yes'm; but buyed banana" And
before the LADY could stop laughing
she was on the street hurrying home.
If you will believe it it was long
time before mamma could convince
her little girl that she had been
naughty.
