trail to the conservatory on Olive street,
the marks leading him up to the very
door OF the house.
The person who responded to his ring
at the bell at first denied all knowledge
OF the wounded man whom the officers
wanted to see, but little perseverance
on Martins part brought an admission
from her that there was man in the
house who had been wounded, by whom
she did not know.
Here again came the same request
made at the station to keep the matter
quiet, and these repeated requests.
led the officers to seek some reason why
the man should want the facts withheld
from the public.
He has been daily visitor to the park
for months past, and the officers cay
that he has frequently remained until
near midnight. Another strange fea-
ture OF the affair is that since the night
of the stabbing the man has altered his
appearance by shaving off his side
whiskers, leaving only a small chin
beard. This apparent effort at disguise,
and his repeated. requests for secrecy,
indicate that the stabbing was no or
dinary assault by footpads, and every
effort will be made to locate the person
or persons who were parties to the
affair

A RUSSIAN AWAKENING.
The Famine After All Is Blessing in
Disguise.

Moscow, Jan. 7.-An eminent Russian
officer in an interview says: "The fam
inc is the result of thirty years OF mis-
management, and will become chronic.
The state of the peasantry is extremely
unsatisfactory. They believe the czar
is in duty bound to feed them, and if he
does not, uprisings may be expected.
Should the troops be called
upon to quell such uprisings,
it is doubtful if they would fire on their
starving fathers and brothers. Possibly
should the Polish frontier be partially
denuded of troops. Austria and Ger
many may make an effort to render
harmless for time the power which
they regard their most dangerous foe.
1t is not necessary to speak OF Poland.
Every one knows that The Polish peas
antry do not respect the czar. The
party at the head of government affairs
Is composed OF Nihilists In disguise.
They are Nihilists, only have altered
methods, and are leading the country to
ruin and disaster in the most loyal
fashion in the world. / regard the
famine as blessing in disguise. 1t may
rouse Us and show US the pitfalls toward
which we are going"

A Preacher and Editor Charged With
Arson and Fraud.
SEATTLE, Jan. REV. A. E. Schade,
editor of the Seattle Tribune, German
weekly paper, and pastor of the German
Reform church, has left for the east, and
numerous creditors mourn his departure.
On December 18th his Office was burned
under circumstances raising strong sus-
picions of incendiarism. Albert Miller,
advertising solicitor for the Tribune,
wrote to the agents of the insurance
company at San Francisco, charging
Schade with hiring a man to set fire
to the building, and then cheating
him out of the price of his crime. The
letter was forwarded to the Seattle
agents, and the insurance money was
withheld. Failure to secure the insur-
ance prevented the temperance of the
Tribune. Several attachments have
been filed against the paper.

BERLIN, Jan. 1.-THE Kreuz Zeitung
publishes an account of the manner in
which it is alleged the accident to the

originated. The account states that

the accident. escaped. He was re-
Gently arrested on suspicion of being a
Nihilist and handed over to the police.
This youth, since his arrest, has con-
fessed that he placed an internal clock
iii a compartment next the imperial
dining saloon, and fearing it would ex-
plode too soon, turned it the wrong way
with the result that it exploded in a
downward direction.

women,s watch Pockets.

Women's watch pockets are always a
difficulty to their modistes and tailors
Our tickle sex has grown tired of the
bangle watch, which is indeed not very
feasible with our very long sleeves. The
newest idea is to insert a tiny pocket in
side the gown just over the chest, where
it cannot affect the fit or cause an un-
slightly little bulge. Short chains are
not worn, except those little idealized
fob arrangements about four inches in
length and finished with small ball.
These are pinned up to the dress above
where the watch is inserted Long
chains, such as our grandmothers re-
joiced in, are coming in, just as are
other forms of old fashioned jewelry.-

There is New York woman who de-
serves honorable mention. Less than
year ago the editor of The Dolls Dress
maker, who conceals her identity under
the most suitable pen name of Jennie
Wren, started her venture in this
unique literary field. Now it takes 50,-
900 copies to supply the demand for the
little monthly, brilliant testimonial to
what woman can do when the need is
great.
DR.. Emily Kempen, professor of the
law class of women students, is the first
woman professor to lecture before a
class of men students since the women
lectured at Bologna in the days of the
Fifteenth century. Her marked ability
has been so clearly demonstrated in her
work with women that Professor Russell
has included her among the instructors
of the men students.
Among the New York ladies who own
beautiful and valuable jewels are Mrs.
Lindley Chaplin, who has diamond
necklace, which she sometimes wears as
tiara, worth $40 1000; Mrs. John Blood
good, who has pair of solitaire diamond
earrings worth So, 1000; Mrs. George Lew

Some Rain Superstiiions.

In the Caucasian provinces OF Geor-
gia where a drouth has lasted long.
marriag eable girls are yoked in couples
with yoke OH their shoulders. a priest
holds the rpins and thus haruessed
they wade through rivers, pUddies
and marshes, praying, screaming,
weeping and laughing.
In the district of Pennsylvania when
the ground is parched with dronth'
some girls strip themselves naked, and
led by an older woman, who is also
naked, they steal IL harrow and carry
it across the field to brook, where
they set il afloat. Next they sit on
the harrow and keep tiny flame
burning on each corner Of it for an
hour. Then they leave the harrow in
tie water ana 90 home.
A similar rain charm is resorted TO
i'm Iudia. Naked women drag pillow
across the field 10y night. 1t is not
said that they plunge the pillow into
stream or sprinkle it with water. But
tie charm could hardly be complete
without it. Sometimes the charm
works through all animal.
To procure rain the Peruvians used
to set a black sheep in a field, pour
chica over it and give it nothing to
eat till rain fell.
Ina district of Sumatra all the wo
men of the village, scantily clad, go TO
the river, wade into il, and splash
each other with the water. a black
cat is thrown into the water aud made
TO swim about for a while, then al
lowed to escape to the bank, pursued
by the splashing of the women.

dogs in an hours drive in Damascus
we thought we could see nothing to

Damascus does not begin TO compare
with this city, especially in the old
part. as in STEAMBOAT. At times they
lined the street, making it yellow
and furry for two or three rods.
Again. dogs lay stretched, singly, in
the middle of the street asleep, and
carriages and foot travellers went out
of their way TO pass them for hours
rather than trouble to move them.
Puppies ran about ad libitum, and
dear little things they Were, too.
These dogs are not fine breed.
Their hair is course and rough, and
their bodies thick and heavy. But
they have good mild faces, gentle
ewes, and, as for attacking, anyone,
it seems never TO enter their minds.
Cats, too, are plenty, aud often is
seen a happy family of dogs, cats and
chickens sharing the street with per-
feet good nature. The dogs are the
