intelligence of their sisters of the nobility.
The merchants of Russia form to a large
extent the middle class and the mer-
chants wives and daughters are kept out
of sight. They spend their time in dress
ing. smoking and eating, and their hus-
bands. when they chat with their fellows
about women. usually speak of them as
.sthe children of the devil" and they are
full of all sorts Of superstitions concern
ing them.
RELIGIOUS AND SUPERSTITIoUS
The daughters of these merchants are
often very religious and very superstl-
tious. Their marriages are usually made
by matchmakers, and the merchant is ex-
pected to give q good dowry with his
daughter when she enters matrimony.
Long engagements are not common and
they seldom last more than two or three
months. Among the peasants the girls
usually weave aud embroider their own
wedding gowns and they begin to get
ready for marriage as soon as they are old
enough to sew. Among the merchant
after a girl is engaged her friends come
in and help her sew upon her wedding
outfit. and she has sewing circles and
quilting bees in preparation for the mar
rage. These sewing circles are held dur
ing the afternoon and after tea the bride
groom and a few OF his bachelor friends
drop in and the girls n the future bride
have O dance with them during the even
ing.
Russian marriages generally take
place at night and the ceremony Is per-
formed by the priest. The bridegroom
meets the bride at the church and the
pair carry lighted tapers with them to
the altar. The taper that burns out first
is supposed to indicate the death Of its
holder. After the ceremony the bridal
party walk three times round that part of
the church where the cross is, and after
benediction they kiss the holy pictures of
the church and they kiss each other three
times during the ceremony. When the
whole service is over the bridegroom
leads the bride to his house, where his
peasants greet him ard where they are
blessed with bread and salt.

Brutal sIu.eers

The sports who went to Coney Island
last night were Disguised. Not a particle
of science was shown by either Maher or
Goddard. Is was q brutal smuggling
match. Had Maher taken advantage of a
fine opening in the first round he would
have won. He had Goddard ratified iu
the second. The brutal exhibition closed
in the third round. Goddard got Maher
in the corner and knocked him out. God
dard had an advantage OF many pounds
in weight.
