FOREIGN GOSSIP.

The Vienna dealers in gems are
about to establish an exchange for
jewels in order TO improve their bust
ness Vienna was formerly one of the
principal European 6epots for fine
gems especially the oriental goods, but
so many firms have removed 10 Paris,
London and Amsterdam that the trade
ct Vienna has been retrograding.

The reason why there have been Of late
go many suicides among the members

car, and that, rather than attempt it,
they commit suicide.
"A wonderful story comes from
London. Jane Savage, working wom-

dentally swallowed razor. At first il
lodged in her throat, but when 4 sur
Ceon arrived the razor had disappeared.
She was taken to the Lincoln hospital,
her stomach was opened, the razor re-
moved and the woman is doing well,
and will probably recover.
A remarkable set of gilt wooden
images from the platform of the great

They were seated on the steps Of a

heir vengeance on a suspected horse
thief recently by setting fire TO his
dwelling during the night, while he,
his wife, mother and family of five
children were within, and burning
the whole family to death. The
peasants stood around the hut, and
when the inmates rushed out they
were thrust back into the burning
house with pitchforks and scvthes.
One of the women was murdered out
right in the attempt TO force her back
into the flames The peasants gave
themselves up to the Russian police,
and will most probably be imprisoned
for a year and then exiled to another
part of the country.
There are no alleys in Para, Bra
I'll, as the authorities considered them
merely hiding places for garbage, and
had them done away with about three
years ago BY city ordinance, how
ever, all ashes and garbage must be
carried out and left in the street
every evening between half-past
seven and half-past eight At nine
o'clock the street cleaning department
OF the city leaves the various stations,
goes Through and sweeps every street,
loads all garbage and ashes on TO its
wagons and hauls it away to the gar
bage crematory, about three miles out
of the city limits. There the wagons
are driven on large revolving plat
form and carried to the place where
the load is dumped into the'retort. BY
midnight the streets are all clean, the
days garbage consumed, ashes carried
away and the men and horses of the
STRENGTHENING department are at rest.

NOT SO GREAT AFTER ALL.
The Small Boy Was Grievouslv Disap-
pointed IN Governor Flower

The Small Boy Was GrievousIv Disap-
! pointed In Governor Flower.
A child's conception of human great
! ness is often very curious. The stand
ard by which children gauge fame
would sometime cause us to smile were
their thoughts only voiced. Mark
Twain humorously tells of the disap-
pointment of Tom Sawyer in a certain
! judge, who was mot as tall as steeple
and who had voice just like any other
man"
An amusing story is told at the ex-
pense of Gov. Flower. The governor
it great man, and, like great men in
general, likes children. A Watertown
friend Of the governors has little bov,
about five years Of age, who has had
great longing to meet his excellencv. He
had heard a great deal about governors
in general and Gov. Flower in particular,
and no one knows what extra VACANT
notions he had got into his head con-
corning him. This summer the little
fellow was gratifed in his great desire
and with his father one day called on
the chief executive Of this state After
a few commonplace remarks had been
passed the father said: Governor. I
have little boy who has always had
great desire 70 meet you" Then, call
ing the little fellow over 70 him, he
said: willie. this is Gov Flower, whom
you have heard so much about. Won't
you shake hands with him.
Willie sized the governor up, then
looked suspiciously az mis- father.
Are you really true governor7- he
finally asked.
Yes, my little fellow" said The one
addressed, with his best Sunday smile,
Il arn governor OF the state of New
York"
The boy eyed him critically from head
20 foot Then he biurted out:
lymph! And you amt much OF q
governor either, are you?'
A story fully equalling this is told
about Gen. Grant We believe this
euecdote TO be entirely new The gen
eral, who was also very fond Of chl-
drs0. was introduced 20 Il little to- OF
four years The little girl gazed a. the
great general with weDde-nent Al
most incredalous that such al honor
vas hers, she asked,
Are you the Gen. Grant that fought
IL the oattles?T
Yes. I was in good many battles"
SAID Grant, much amused
