THE RUSSIAN REFUGEES.
A Long Telegram Sent to Washing
ton Regarding Them.


The case OF the ten Russian refugees
now being held in detention at the City
Prison was yesterday submitted to the
Treasury Department at Washington to
pass upon.
Commissioner Stradley. the Immigra.
tion Commissioner. was instructed to take
their dispositions and telegraph them at
once to the Government authorities. The
testimony was accordingly taken, each es-
cape being interrogated separately, and the
result aggregating twelve pages of closely
type written matter was dispatched over
the wire on Monday afternoon. at O'Clock.
The Commissioner admitted that such a
long telegram was something extraordi-
nary even for the Government, but claimed
that this was a case of international ur-
gency and that, besides, the Governm ment
mad special rates. There were proba bly,
nearly $500 words in the telegram.
The dispositions appeared in some cases
plausible to the Commissioner, but in
other cases otherwise. The escapes gave
the reasons of their arrests. and each de-
clared he was innocent. Now it remains
TO be seen whether the crimes imputed to
the men are extraditable otfenses and
whether the National Government or In
migration Commissioner should deal with
the men, should it be decided that they
ought TO be deported. Then would come
the question TO what point in Russia the
men should be deported.
These are all nice points in international
law. and Commissioner Stradley is await
ing intelligence from Washington of their
determination.
In the meantime the Russian escapes
live sumptuously at the Governments ex-
pPnse and under the supervision of Chief
of Police Crowley. The National Govern
ment is being charged at the rate of 81 a
day for the board of each prisoner

COUNTERFEIT COINS.
A Stranger Tries TO Pass Them on
Mission Street.

MISSION Street.
A man claiming to be from Vallejo went
into the saloon a Col Mission street yester-
day morning and ordered some beer. and
after quenching his thirst be threw down
a 80 cent piece of silver on the counter.
The barkeeper saw at glance that it was
a counterfeit, and a very bad one at that,
and refused to take the spurious coin,
wheTeupon the stranger pulled another
piece out of his pocket and rendered it in
liquidation of his debt. The second piece
was, If possible, a worse imitation of gen.
uine coin than the first, and while the bar
keeper was looking for an officer to arrest
the fellow the latter escaped.
The man is described as about 80 or So
years of age. dark complexion, hair and
mustache and of rather short stature.

DIR. Clarke Loses His Fee.

A jury in Judge Sanderson's court found
a verdict for the defendant yesterday
in the case of DR.. j. j. Clarke VS.. j. C..
Gibson.
The suit was to recover $500 for profess
siOnal services rendered to he defendants
daughter. Mr.. Gibson's defense was that
DR.. Clarke had erred in his diagnosis of
the patients case, and in consequence had
been guilty of gross malpractice for which
the sum of $4,000 was demanded in cross
complaint.
Much medical expert testimony was in
usual diversity of opinion. ID charging
the jury Judge Sanderson said that no
damages could be awarded on the cross
complaint The jury, therefore, simply
disalOw we'd Dr. Clarke's fee.

victim had been drinking heavily on the
night of the tragedy. and that Mccarthy

Since the worldwide diffusion Of the
tobacco habit its earliest and perhaps
original use has been in a great meas.
ure overlooked. With the aborigines of
America smoking and its Kindred prac-
tees were not mere sensual gratiica-
tons, but tobacco was regarded al an
herb Of peculiar and mysterious sancti-
ty. and its use was deeply and intimately
interviewer with native rights and cere-
monies.
With reasonable certainty the pipe
may be considered as an implement the
use Of which was originally confined to
the priest. medicine man, or sorcerer, in
whose hands 1t was a means Of cornmu-
nication between savage man and the
unseen spirits with which his universal
doctrine of animism invested every OBJ
ject that came under his observation.
Similar to this use Of the pipe was its
employment in the treatment of disease,
which in savage philosophy is thought
to be the work Of evil spirits.-John
Hawkins in Popular Science Monthly.

The following is IA series of hints to
young singers and would be singers
which lave been received from one Of
Bos,on's well known musicians:
Start under the right instruction. 1t is
far better TO begin right in middle life
than wrong in youth.
Study everything carefully. for whats
worth doing at all is worth doing well"
Cultivate refinement in all things. The
.astes. i~Gciinations and tendencies of the
singer. whether refined or coarse are uIi-
avoidably made manifest in the inter
probation Of the music she sings.
Keep up with the events OF the world
in a general way. but while studying
music live in an atmosphere of music.
Concentration is the secret of many a
singers success.
Sing everything as the author wrote
it, for n should be as truthful in music
as in history.
for eating. sleeping and exercising accord
ing To the in which they affect
Your singing.
Throw your whole soul into your sing
ing. Live il tine song while you sing it.
The sympathy and interest of an audi
ence are most frequently gained by the
sincere, soulful and truthful rendering
of a selection.
Cultivate animation. warmth of spirit
and coloring in rendering your songs.
Train yourself to be cool headed and
collected when singing.
Sing without notes when possible. You
can produce better dramatic effects and
hold your audience better by SO doing.
Don't try to study music. art and sci
enc all at the same time. Select one
and do that well.
Don't think of making music your pro-
fession unless you have a more than or
binary talent for it. The musical pro-
fession is always crowded with perform
ers, except at the very top. where there
is always plenty of
Don't think of making music your pro-
fession unless you have plenty OF money
to give yourself the best possible musical
education.
Don't think that training in execution
and technique of the voice only is sut-
ficient. The professional singer SHOULD
be a perfect reader and well schooled in
counterpart and harmony.
Don't think the life of a successful
singer is easy. The more successful the
singer the more she becomes a slave to
her profession.
Don't make a practice of humming. 1t
tires the voice.
Don't practice long at a time, especial
ly if you are just beginning. 1t is much
better to practice little and often.
Dom eat just before singing. A hearty
meal several hours before ana IA light
stimulating refreshment just before you
sing are much better.
Don't drink wine for a stimulant. Il
is not only driving TO the throat, but is
too strong a stimulant. A person needs
to be especially self composed when sing
ing.
Don't indulge i'll mannerisms anu
catchy o~rigiralities j" rendering your Sc
lections. y natural manner and sincere
singing are much more pleasing and de-
sirable.-Boston Journal.

There are many ways of fixing a mis-
demeanor upo- the person who has com
mittei it. 1t is commonly thought that
lawyers and not clergymen are the men
most competent for this practice, but
the following story leaves one feeling
that the honors may he equal:

One Of u city clergymen tells this:
Il have had some funny experiences with
groons who have failed to pay me any
thing. One man came to me one day
and asked me how much charged. |
told him that we charged nothing, but
he could give he what he liked. mar
ried him. and he promised to pay me.
but never did. Not long after another
couple. who had been sent by the others,

promising to give Inc a fee, but nothing
came of it. Some time after there came
still another couple who had been sent
by the previous one. The groom declared
he was dead broke. | told him how the
others had treated me, but he promised
faithfully to pay me in the future. and !
tied the knot. That has been some time
ayo. and he has not yet fulfilled his
promise. have had a good many such
cases.

WHILE bank failures continue to be of

gratifying Indication To notice that
there are a very large number of rcsmp-

Similar instances are reported all over
the country. and il begins TO look like
there was a genera! feeling Of confidence
fast prevailing IN financial circles. One

this is quite natural. In all cases Of

How Judge Kelley Got Even with n Fellow
Member Who Interrupted Him.
Speaking Of porcelain reminds one Of an
episode that occurred in the house of repre-
sentatives several years ago when tariff
debate was on. The question directly up
for discussion was something in connection
with pottery, and Judge William d. Kel-
ley Of Pennsylvania was taking a leading
part in 10. The father Of protection, as he
was properly called, was a firm believer in
the value of object lessons, so he was teach
ing one to the house on this occasion.
Resting ON his desk was a huge piece of
pottery, and il was as beautiful as it was
big. Its ground color was FURNISHED cop
per, and climbing about over it was grape
vine whose foliage and fruit stood out in
striking lifelikcness. Twining his arms
lovingly about the top OF tho piece, Judge
Kelley began He was q ponderous speak

sold at retail it cost one hundred and

But right here Mr.. Springer concluded
that it wouldn't do for Judge Kelley to pro-
ceed any further with an object lesson, so
he arose, and pointing his finger in a satir-
ical way toward the Pennsylyanian sarcas-
tically said:
