A Russian Priests Marrow Escape
From a Mob.
During the recent popular excite
ment and riotous demonstration in
Russia, growing out OF the outbreak
Of cholera, a priest at Saratoff was
attacked by q mob. A man had
shouted upon seeing him: "There's
the man that seized me and buried me
alive. I've only this instant escaped
from the grave that he put me in"
The excited people thoroughly con-
WINGED that there was q murderous
conspiracy against them rushed upon
the priest with cries which showed
their determination to put them to
death. The priest folded his arms
and smiled. "You have just come
out OF the grave, you say" he called
to the man. "Aye, that have"
"Then how" asked the priest, "does
it happen that you have had time to
get drunk already" AS it was found
that the mans breath smelled OF
liquor the laugh was turned upon him!
and the crowd left the priest un.
molested.

How the Buddhists Treasure Their
Little Relic.
Among the sacred relics OF Horluji,
in India, is the veritabIe eyeball OF
Buddha. 1t looks, like nothing else
but the tiny, black, well-boiled pearl
that one SO often finds in an oyster
stew. This EYE OF Buddha" is shown
every day at high noon, special mass
being chanted while the relic is dis
played. The ceremony as we saw it
was most interesting.
First the priest knelt, touched a sill
yer gong and prayed before gilded
shrine with closed doors and golden
lotus ornaments. Next he drew from
one side OF the shrine large bundle
covered with a wrapping OF rich old
gold and red brocade and tied with
silk cords. This was reverently laid
on a low, ornamental table near the
altar. Then with muttered chants of
prayer going on all tho time, the old
priest united and laid out bng after
bag of brocade, each lined with some
dull contrasting'color and tied with
heavy silken cords.
After the ninth bag had been taken
out and united, an upright box, cov-
cred with more brocade, appeared.
and, lifting it out, the priest opened
it and produced little rock crystal
reliquary and set it upon a gilded To-
tus pedestal that stood near. This
reliquary was shaped like tomb.

and pyramid being placed one above

A French Soldier Who Took .
Strange Revenge.


Strange Revenge.
The Marshal de Luxembourg while
in the army OF Flanders noticed one
day that several soldiers were not in
their places. He sent an aide-ds-
camp to recall them. All obeyed
promptly except one. The marshal,
then Count de Boutteville, hastened
to him, stick in hand, and threatened
to strike him.
''If you do that you will repent"
cried the soldier.
Boutteville struck him several times,
andsforced him to return, to,his regi-
msnt.
Two weeks later the count offered .
large sum Of money to any man who
would execute a perilous errand for
him. A soldier who was considered
the bravest in tho regiment presented
himself to the commission, and ac-
quilted himself with great success and
courage.
Boutteville praised him highly and
presented him with the reward which
he had offered. The soldier imme-
diately distributed the money among
his comrades. Then turning he said:
"Do you recognize me; sir?"
The count replied that he had never
seen him.
II am the soldier to whom you gave
severe beating two weeks ago. I
said that you would repent it."
The count embraced him with emo
ton, promised to be his friend, and
the man received an officers commits

The city Of Berlin has grown with
greater rapidity than any city in the
United States. Its proportionate rate
of increase has not been SO great as
in few Of our large cities, but none
that approach it in size has developed
so rapidly. Most OF this growth has
been made since the war with France,
and the expenditure of the money
France was obliged to pay as in
demnity Is perhaps the secret OF its
start. BY additions OF surrounding
territory soon to be made Berlin's
population will be nearly or quite
three millions. This is next to
London, Paris having not more than
