In Russia, where the cold is very in
tense, the markets are very curious
things. The meat is frozen; the carcases
of dead animals, as sheep and pigs, stand
upright outside the stalls; everything,
even game and poultry, requires to be
thawed before it can be cooked, and the
market peoples dress is as picturesque
as il is warm and comfortable.
Then the rivers are frozen over all the
winter long, and so thick is the ice that
every one can skate, anywhere and any
time. Stalls are put up on the ice and
busy markets held there.
In the Asiatic part of Russia the peo-
pie live chiefly by hunting and fishing,
and the fur of the Russian animals is
very beautiful-the ermine. fox, sable,
sea otter and others.
At the end of the winter, when the
snow melts, the huntsman pursues the
elk, wearing long shoes, in which he
can glide over the snow very quickly,
while the poor elk sinks into the snow
deeper and deeper every step and is at
last overtaken and hlled.-Good Words

THE NORTHWEST.

west is not only the largest vessel ever
launched at an inland port, but is the fin
est, swiftest and most pretentious pas
senger ship that ever plowed the waters
Of the great lakes. Indeed some of the
fresh water seadogs who witnessed the
launching ventured the opinion that she
Is too palatial and expensive to prove
profitable in the passenger traffic. The
Great Northern railway evidently has no
misgivings on that score, however, for it
has not only expended $780, 900 on the
Northwest, but is building sister ship,
the Northland, whichYwill cost as much
more.
The new steamers are expected to
make 20 miles an hour in the open lake
and 10 miles an hour in the rivers and
to accomplish the distance between Buff
falo and Duluth in Sc hours. The serv-
ice will begin in June.
The Northwest is in large measure
a combination of transatlantic steam
ship and modern lake steamer, with the
best points of both. She is 3S3 feet long
over all and has a nodded breadth of A
feet. Her depth to spar deck is "a feet
5inches. Until last spring these dimen-

the lakes. The big steamer Centurion
is but few inches longer.
In power the Northwest is not only
without an equal on the lakes, but is
more than double her nearest competitor.
For her size she has greater power than
the favored ocean greyhounds. Moth
ing like her was ever before attempted
off the Atlantic. The two quadruple ex-
pansion engines are expected to develop
1000 horsepower.
Being designed exclusively for passen-
gers, the Northwest has no freight hold
worth the name. She has room for 1000
tons of coal in the bunkers, and the &C
commodations for passengers are of the
most elegant description. The company
expects to carry large number of emil
grants, and quarters are provided for
them on the lower deck.
Should the Northwest and Northland
prove profitable four or five more steam
ers will be built and daily line between
Buffalo and Duluth established.

Cannibalism In Saghalien.

The Vladivostock, newspaper pub
lished in eastern Siberia, reveals terri
BILE state of affairs among the convicts on
the island of Saghalien. It would ap-
pear that the convicts there have been
treated by some of the subordinate prison
authorities so. harshly that the governor
of the island has been obliged to intnr-
fere for their protection.
A warder named Khanoff and some
of his assistants, who at one time were
convicts themselves and had been raised
to the rank of jailers, have been removed
from their posts. Khanoff's treatment
of the prisoners was so abominable that
anumber of them crippled themselves,
cutting off fingers and toes, in order to
be treated as invalids and to be freed
from his terrible cruelties. Others fed
to the impenetrable forest, where they
suffered all the horrors of hunger.
In satchel belonging to a fugitive
convict who had been hunted down
were found some pieces of human flesh.
Investigation revealed that this man had
been one of a party Of four, and that
only one of them now remained. The
others had been killed and devoured by
their comrades. Similar cases of canni-
balism are, according to the Siberian
journal, not infreqlient.

the name sounded too much like home
talent he changed it to Signor Perugini
without even "by your leave" to the
New York legislature. His first star
part was that of prize baby in Barnum's
great New York baby show years ago.
When he grew to mans estate, he went
to Europe, studied for grand opera and
was making a name for himself when
deafness compelled him to temporarily
quit the stage. His next venture was in
light opera, and he has been member
Of various good companies. Not long
ago he played Christopher Columbus in
"1492" in Boston. He is about 40 years
of age, tall, decidedly good looking and
possessing dark eyes of many candle
power. These eyes, which are described
as large, dreamy and soulful, are said to
have particularly played havoc with
Miss Russell's heart.
1t appears that the coming event will
be Perugini's first matrimonial venture,
but Miss Russell has twice before heard
the wedding bells. Her first husband
was Harry Braham, and although he
was a musical director their relations
did not prove harmonious. Then she
married Teddy Solomon, composer of
"Billee Taylor" and other well known
operas, but again marriage proved a
failure with her. The fruit of their
union was daughter, now 8 years of age.
Miss Russell recently secured divorce
from Solomon and is now free to marry
for the third time.

THE CARE OF BABIES.


Two Methods Ventilated by a Mother Who
Tried the Wrong One.
The advent of baby should not be
the signal for upsetting all the ordinary
rules of house. The baby himself is
much happier and much more likely tc
be healthy if from the beginning he is
brought up by method. During the first
month of his little life the youngling of
the human flock is often treated with
such indiscretion that it is very hard for
him and for his poor mother to get him
into good habits later.
81 fully intended" writes young
matron in Harper's Bazaar, "to bring
my little Duncan up well from the first
hour of his birth. And I would have
had very little trouble if Walters moth
or had not just then come from Scotland
to visit us. Duncan was her first grand
child, and the adoring grandmother had
no patience with new tangled notions in
the nursery. I rocked my babies to

hours without stopping. Hewas great
heavy fellow too. would drop down

"'Nurse the baby by the clock? No,
my dear. believe in nursing a baby
when he's hungry-little and often is my
way. A baby will never be a baby again.
Let him be loved and petted while he can.
So the grandmother argued, and so, be-
ing resolute person, buxom and strong
of back as Of will, she had her way. Dun
can became, bless his heart, the tyrant
his own way. We were abject slaves,
and Duncan ruled US with rod of iron.
Poor little mani He had the collie per-
petually. He woke up a dozen times
every night. When he slept, it seemed as
if we must hush our very breathing, lest
it should disturb him.
''My neighbor, positive little lady,
with no relations to interfere in fond
foolishness, brought up her wee Johnnie
according to method. She nursed him
by the clock. Therefore she could leave
the house for certain length of time,
knowing that he would not suffer for
food while she was gone. He was the
sweetest baby-never sour or disagree
able from repletion.
''She never allowed him to be Weakened
that visitors might look at him, and she
didn't let people kiss him if she could
help it. AS for carrying the baby, that
was absolutely forbidden. He was put
into his cradle wide awake, warm and
comfortable, and was left in darkened
room to go to sleep.
"There is no telling how the boys will
turn out when they are old enough to go
toschool, but Johnnie is far less trou-
BILE than Duncan. Not that would ex-

THE DINING TABLE.
INFORMATION ABOUT ALL KINDS AND
QUALITIES OF TABLE LINEN.

All White Linen Is the Preferred Style.
Napkins Correspond With the Cloth.
Centerpieces, serviettes and DOilies May
Be Embroidered In CoIors.
At present the preference Is for all
white table linen. Napkins should al
ways correspond with the cloth, and
of course damask as fine as the purse
can buy is in rule. Small patterns are
never out of style. Such are stars, balls
and cobweb, acorn borders with vine
centers, daisies, buttercups and similar
designs.
The housekeeper skillful with her
needle takes delight in outlining the
borders in Kensington or stem stitch,
either in white or wash silks for luncheon
cloths. On uncolored table linen both
china and silver are seen to their best
advantage. If bit of color is liked, it
may be introduced in centerpieces and
serviettes for the bread plate, the olive
dish and in doilies. In fact, the cloth
may serve as background for as much
display as convenience will allow.
Napkins remain the same large size,
from % to 81 inches square. Doilies are
made in diverse sizes and materials. The
finest are boiling cloth, either exquisite

Saving Laundry Work.

A writer in Decorator and Furnishe1
tells of the expedient of thoughtful
mother whose large family of children
made much laundry work. For break
fast and luncheon. instead of large table
cloths, she provided half yard squares
made from good quality of butchers
linen. These were hemmed and an ini-
tial worked in one corner-eight or ten
squares for the use of each child. These
were laid diamondwise under each plate
and renewed as needed, the laundress
finding these small pieces much easier to
care for than the large cloths.
The same writer offers the suggestion
that if good sized, milky white glass
beads are sewed on table mats, crocheted
in heavy cotton or made Of corset cord,
their efficiency in protecting the table
from hot dishes is absolute. For general
use this is certainly good idea, though
these mats are not specially pretty for
company days.

DIRECTS THE BULLS AND BEARS.

The New President of Chicago's Board of
Trade Is Popular and Brainy.
The regime of Charles L. Raymond,
the new president of the Chicago board
of trade, promises to be an important
one in the history Of that famous body.
A million and a quarter of the organiza-
tons bonds will be refunded now that
the 10 year limit of their existence has
has expired, and the great tower that
rises 325 feet from the board of trade
building will be taken down at an ex-
pense Of $500, 900, for the reason that its
enormous weight has already caused the
structure to sink eight inches and threat
ems to entirely demolish it.
Mr.. Raymond is an excellent type of
the self made man. Years ago he began
work in the stockyards, serving at first
in very humble capacity, and by in
dustry and perseverance he soon began
making place for himself in the provi-
sion trade in Chicago. He became score
