the officer who accompanied the Prince

IL was he who. with two other English
officers and a handful OF Turkish troops,
defended the Turkish city for almost an

FAIRIES DANCE.
They Hold Forth to Their Proud

Twenty pretty funnily dressed little
girlsl-and five or six pretty little boys!
They all danced together last night at
the OPP sra house for The sake of those
looking at them. They seemed to enjoy
ii th mselVes, Too.
The twenty-five went through little
fancy dances, all, or plain dances, and
then a few of the tots gave some steps
OH their individual accounte. Fishers

prettIness nor grace than little Lucille

Early Prejudice Against Women Doctors.

Medicine as profession for women
is less than fifty years old. DIR. Mary
Zallrzewska, of Boston, has recently
published an interesting account of
the struggles of the pioneers in this
particular field. Harriet Hunt and
Eliza beth Blackwell were stirred bv
the idea that an important work might
be done by well-instructed medical
women. The naturalization of this
view resulted in complete social ostra-
cism. impossible to be endured bv anv
but the strongest and most courageous
women. No woman doctor ever earned
4 living before 1850. No respectable
family IN any commonly respectable
neighboorkood would let rooms to a
woman physician. Even when friends
gave her sheltera business card or sign
was not allowed. The lack of prac-
teal training was really the STUN
bling block and the cause of all this
prejudice.

AN ANCIENT PEOPLE.

The Hermitage is famous building
| in st. Petersburg, in which the relics
of Peter the Great are preserved. In
it there is also kept what is called the
kertch collection.
Six centuries before Christ, the
Greeds founded colonies on the shores
of the Black sea. They united with
the native Scythians, and Scythian
rulers were generally placed over the
colonies.
Outside the gates of the modern
town of Kertch there are rows of
tombs and mounds. In the year 1880,
the Russian government began to care
fully examine these tombs, the objects
found there-remains of the ancient
commissioning taken to st. Peters
burg and placed in the hermitage
In 1881, "a mound was opened called
by the Tartars ''The Hillock of the
Brave" and in room of hewn stone
the remains of Scythian king were
found, together with those of his wife,
his war horse and servant His gold.

remains undecayed, and the carving
and gilt figures upon it are still sharp

1t seems Incredible that substance
so frail should have endured for more
than two thousand years uninjured.
The gold bars of his shield, the sill
yer slaves of his heralds, the collar of
twisted gold wire, are to be seen. be-
sides many other articles found in his
tomb, although large number were
stolen at the time of the discovery
But still more interesting and beau
tiful were the contents of a tomb dis
covered IN 1866, of a priestess of Ceres,
with all her rich ornaments, and these
were all preserved.
Most exquisite they are. The gold
chains, buttons, bracelets, necklaces,
equal the best workmanship of Venice
or Florence at the present day. The
golden plates from her head-dress are
of response work of perfect beauty.

AN ODD TIMEPIECE.
The Chariot Clock of the Emperor {
China.

The Chariot Clock of the Emperor OF
China.
One of the most wonderful time
keepers known to the horologist was
made in London about one hundred
years ago and sent by the president of
the East India company as gift to
the emperor of China. The case, says
the New Orleans Times-Democrat, was
made in the form of a chariot, in
which was seated the figure of wom-
an. This figure was of pure ivory and
gold and sat with her right hand rest
ing upon tiny clock fastened to the
side of the vehicle. A part of the
wheels which kept track of the flight
of time were hidden in the body of
tiny bird, which had seemingly just
alighted upon the lady's finger. Above
was canopy so arranged as to conceal
a silver bell. This bell was fitted with
a minia ture hammer of the same metal,
and, although it appeared to have no
connection with the clock. regularly
struck the hours, and could be made
to repeat by touching diamond but
ton on the lady's bodice. In the char
lot at the ivory lady's feet there was a
golden figure of a dog, and above and
in front were two birds, apparently
flying before the chariot. This beau
tiful ornament was made almost en-
tirely of gold and was deliberately
decorated with precious stones.
