ACROSS A CONTINENT.
A TREMENDOUS UNDERTAKING IS THE
 TRANSSIsERlAN RAILWAY.

An Enterprise of Great Commercial and
 Strategic Importance-It Will Develop the Resources of Siberia-Information
 About That Little Known Country.
 The Russian government has at last begun to build the great Siberian rail way which has been under consideration for so long period. The road will be some 5000 miles ill length, extending from 9heliabinsk in the west to Vladi- vostok in the east. Its cost is estimated at $270, 900, 900, and it is hoped that the entire limo will be in operation by the year 1900. It is not expected that it will pay expenses for long time, but it is an investment by the government for economic, industrial and military pur- poses whose supreme importance can not be overlooked.
 The chief purpose, of course, which the Russian government has ill view i'll building this great railway across Si- beria is political. its significance is clear from the fact that when the line is completed Russia will not only nomi nally but actually occupy that position ill the east of Asia which she now holds among her friends and enemies in Flu rope As the line shortens the distance from European Russia to the east of Asia, ill like measure will the power of Russia increase ill the east.
 The strategic value of the road can be realized only by those who have made 8 study of the relations that have for so long existed between England and Rus

The Man Who Tired Carlyle,

There is story of Carlyle in his old age having taken tho following fare we'll in his broadest Scotch of a young friend who had had him in charge for walks, and who while almost always adapting himself to Carlyle's mood had on a single occasion ventured to dis agree with him, II would have you to know, young man, that you have the capacity of being the greatest bore in Christendom. The boredom had con- sisted solely in the rather negative sin of not having been convinced of the truth of one of Carlyle's dOgmas, a sin all the more heinous because, instead of standing boldly up to Carlyle and de- claring his doctrine utterly prrvCrse, the companion had betrayed hls weak ness by an apologetic tone.
 Now, Carlyle liked disciples, and he respected antagonists, but he could not endure being merely thwarted without being thoroughly reused. He felt in that case that he had made no impress sion at all on his interlocutor; that he had neither won him nor excited him to resistance. And nothing bored him so much as that. Of course it is only exceptionally despOtic minds that are bored in this way.-London Spectator.

He Was Considerate.

When the business man saw the tramp approach him ill his office, he very nat urally concluded that the time had come to take up a collection, but the tramp did not come at him that way.
 ''Excuse me, sir, " he said, are you married?" N
 The business man was slightly dis concerted.
 "Yes,' he replied, half in doubt.
 "Wife living?"
 "Yes"
 "How many children?"
 "SiX."
 Any grown daughters?"

 Own your own house?"
 "Yes''
 "Got any horses and carriages?"
 "Yes"
 "Got servants, I suppose?'
 "Yes; half dozen.'

 Are you rich?''
 Hardly that, I guess.
 I'm very much obliged for the in- formation. Good day." and the tramp started out.
 Here hold on!' exclaimed the busi- ness man. What the deuce do you mean by coming at nlc i'll that style? Are you a census taker?'
 Hardly that, sir, smiled the tramp, "but 1 make it a rule in my profession never to strike man in your fix for dime unless he is at least millionaire. don t always get it from millionaire, and always do from your kind and it makes me feel like I was imposing on good nature. Good morning, sir, v and again the tramp started off, and the business man never said word.
 Well, exclaimed the tramp after he had got outside, and as he gazed into his empty palm, with n comical grin II wonder how his nibs got on to my snap? I'm dead sure I never tried him before. ''-Detroit Free Press.

Advice to Stout Women.

Women over 40 should carefully avoid becoming too stout, misfortune brought about generally by self indulgence in the pleasures of the table, in afternoon maps and in a lazy neglect of daily eN- ercise. This sort of fat is likely to result in disease eventually, and as it is easily avoidable word of warning may not be amiss. The New York Tribune advises as follows: Avoid candies. Never eat pastry or buttered toast. Prefer biscuits or dry toast to bread whenever possible. Drink as little as possible. Accustom yourself to taking tea or coffee without sugar. Never touch jam, and if you can not do without butter spread it as spar ingly as possible. Beer is fattening and injurious to the complexion. Milk is also fattening. Lemonade, if made from fresh lemons, is good for the health and tends to reduce flesh Growing old is always, of course, a little tragic, espe- cially if a woman remains young and fresh i'll mind. But she need not grow fat, coarse and ruddy as we'll as old.

"THEM WAS HIS sENrlMENTs.n


l And the old Unreconstructed Confederate | Took Pains to Mako Them Known. Very many of the early settlers of
 Montana were natives of Missouri, Ken
 lucky, Arkansas and the border states
 of the war. They came by the Missouri
 river to Fort Benton or by coach from
 Omaha and for many years were in the
 majority at elections, when they held
 the flag of Democracy to the masthead. The result of this immigration was a
 strong sentiment for the confederacy in
 the early days, and in 1878, when Gen. | eral Phil Sheridan and staff made an | official visit to the northwestern posts, the sentiment had not disappeared.
 Helena, Mon, was just emerging from the garb of a mining camp. but few | enterprising citizens with cx-Governor | Hauser at the head determined to give | a fitting reception to tho visitors. A delegation met Sheridan and his party | in a stagecoach several miles from the | town and escorted them to the leading | hotel. On the following afternoon a l banquet was given in tho First National | bank, located then Ill the present gam | bling district.
 The menu consisted mostly of canned | goods, jack rabbit meat and fresh game, | because tho town was remote from civ ilization. There was, however, plenty | of champagne, since that wine is usu | ally found in mining camps even when nothing in tho way of food is left but | flour. The gathering was very demo- | cratic. Everybody in town was invited | to see Little Phil, V though there was much grumbling among the unrecon- | structed ConfcderatCs over the display made for Union general. There were | lawyers and mining camp politicians | mingled with gamblers, miners and OK | road agents, many of whom woro six | shooters at their belts. Among them was one old time Confederate soldier, l who had turned his talents from the 1 chivalry of war 10 dealing "bank. He was restless and uncomfortable during I tho feast, and when the tOasts began l this restlessness increased. Ills face ! darkened and his eyes famed with an- ger as various toasts were given tn the United States, tho president of the United States and the army of the United States.
 Finally he could stand it no longer. He arose with a wineglass in one hand and six shooter in the other, anl in a
 voice hoarso with rage shnutCd:
 "Here to all mankind, so that no
 Id fool will be overlooked.
 With that he dashed the wineglass on
 the floor and emptied the six shooter
 into the ceiling so that tine room was
 filled with smoke. The guests reached
 for their rcvolvors, hut the gambler,
 with look of contempt, returned his
 gun to his pocket and walked out.
 General Sheridan afterward said that
 it was one of tho most dramatic and
 suggestive scenes in all his experience.

TEACH ALL CHILDREN MUSIC.
Let It Be Part In the Regular School
 System.

System.
 The idea seems generally to prevail that music is an accomplishment that is to be acquitted only by special course of study and by certain methods that are not, as a rule, employed in teaching other branches of education.
 The Etude says: It would seem to go without saying that child should learn music as it learns it's A B C's. If a child can read, it ought to know the let ters on the scale and the keyboard of an instrument There is no reason why child should not read music as readily as it reads print
 Music should never be an accomplish ment and should never be taught as such. It should be as much a part of the regular training of every youngster as reading and spelling. No matter how. long people live they are never out of the range of music and its possi ibili- ties
 Every church service, every entertain ment, even nature herself, is full of mu sic, and those who are taught from childhood to comprehend and assist in creating this most delightful accompan iment to everyday life have very much to be thankful for. When child can read its primer, it should be thoroughly drilled in the elements of music, and as it advances should study this branch in common with others. If this were the case, we would hear a great deal of very much better music than we are treated to, and those who hear it would be much more able to appreci- ate it. In addition to this there is nothing so comforting to persons of fine temperament as the harmony of good music, and no greater delight ill leisure hours or times when one is some- what under the weather than to be able intelligently to appreciate or render the fine works of classic and more ordinary composers. AS almost every house in the land has musical instrument of some sort it seems strange that every schoolhouse has not its musical chart and its simple and comprehensive course of musical study. The child who learns music with the elementary branches is so ingrained with it that it is never for gotten.
 Music is always elevating i'll its tend encies and puts people ill better humor under almost all circumstances. It is solace to the weary, and it breaks the strain of care, puts the whole being in better condition and is often quite as valuable to distracted spirits as doc tors medicine.
 It would be we'll worth while to in corporate thorough musical training into the public school system, and some day, when people come to realize moro clearly the advantages of it, we shall see this delightful element made part of all courses of study.
