LoNG-LosT MANUSCRIPTS.
The Gear Has Ordered Rigid Search for
Them,


The recent order of the Gear to search
the subterranean halls and rooms of the
great Kremlin at MOSCOW, for hidden
treasures, has aroused interest, not only
in Russia, but throughout the civilized
world. The prime reason for the order
is the belief that in some far-away cell is
hidden the famous ibrary,of Ivan w.,
surnamed the Terrible. Ivan ". was
the Louis XII. Of Russia. 1t is known
that theifamous ruler devoted the little
leisure lett him by war and politics to
collecting Greek and Latin manuscripts
and it is believed that more than eight
hundred of these precious documents
are concealed in some underground
cavern OF the palace in which he passed
much of his time. Most of these manu-
scripts, according to Russian scholars,
upon whose recommendation the Gar
has acted, are unknown to the Occlden-
tai world, and may change many OF the
accepted Greek and Latin traditions The.
result of the tour discovery is, there
fore, awaited with deep interest, not only
By Russian savans. but by scholars all
over the world.
MANY other thinA of value-intrinsic
and historical may be brought to light
by tbs search i'm these caverns. The
Kremlin is the most important building
in all Russia. The name alone exercises
even today a mysterious influence over
every son and daughter of the golden
domed country. 1t is the monument of
the glory-and misery OF Russia. Its
history is the history Of modern Russia.
Ityhas been de yastated by the Tartars, it
: n os 1,aa,r 1,,1rr, ad i,uI the Poles III has
been occupied by Napoleon. 1t saw Peter
the Great grow to manhood, it saw the
fall of Boris Godounof ana the False
Dimitri. 1t has been spotted with the
blood of the, innocent and stained with
the blood of the guilty. But,wlrh all it's
history, it inspires Russian today with
a feeling to which words can give no
adequate expression.
In the dark caverns are supposed to
be not only manuscripts of Cicero,
Caesar, Tacitus and the Greek writers,
but documents relating to the history
of Russia, testaments of ancient Russian
Princes, and papers left by the Mon
golian Khans, who once held sway
within it's walls
Russian writers of the seventeenth CEN
fury mention the library of Ivan w.,
and say that the subterranean vaults
contain other, almost countless treas
ures, hidden by the Gar and Princes in
times of war and invasion. The only
fear is that the manuscripts have been
destroyed by the bookworm, the damp
ness natural to the depths in which they
are supposed to be, or the effects of time.
Weeks or even months may go before
the search is ended, but Alexander ILL.,,
will deserve, and receive the thanks of
all students for undertaking a work
which Cars before him declined to do.

a step as firm as sea captains; vigor-

bodily movements. but deliberate and
gentle in his speech; dressed always in
such way that his clothes seem to
belong to him and not he to them: with
strong brown hands, rather large, which

paper; and a countenance, familiar to
most Americans through portraits or
caricatures, whose marked features the
caricaturists distort in various whimsi-
cal ways without ever succeeding in
making the face seem either ridiculous
or ignoble. Mr.. Dana's full beard is
trimmed more closely than in former
years. 1t ranks as snow white only by
curtesy; the last strongholds of the pig
ment are not yet conquered.
The impression which Mr.. Dana makes
upon those who come into contact with
him personally for the first time or the

WOLF HUNTING IN RUSSIA.
A Dangerous and Most Exciting spo,

A Dangerous and Most Exciting Sport.
Wolf hunting Ia probably the most
dangerous snort there is With a servant
and couple of fast horses attached to a
sleigh, have gone out and baited the
ground for the brutes on numerous oc-
casions. A fat hog tied to tree never
failed to collect pack. The trouble
was that it drew too many. The wolves
would gather to the number of 200 or
800 and devour the pig. Then we would
dash upon the scene. and the fun would
commence. They are as feet as deer.
To say that they are as wolves would
be more like it. They can outrun the
horses every time, ard if they are not
picked off as fast as they come up you
might as well give up the fight and per-
NIT yourself to be devoured. Imagine
yourself making rnning fight with q
band of 300 HUNGRY, maddened wolves,
and with the knowledge that if one of
the feet little brutes reaches your horse
you are a dead man, and you can possi-
bly, imagine what nervy sport it is. It
requires cool head and a good eye. If
you HISS your ulaFk you're gone. our
only chance of safety is in keeping your
horses up. 1t is generally long fight.
You look back and see Che carcasses of
the animals dotting the snow for mile
or two in your wake. and still they pur-
sue you in great numbers Slowly the
pack thin out. Many have dropped
bleeding on the ground. Others stop to
devour the carcasses. The more that
fall the more timid the rest be come.
When you nearly out-distance the pack
you have been through the most trying
ordeal that the most ardent sportsman
could wish. Yes ] consider wolf hunt
ing the most dangerous sport there is.
Tiger hunting in India is tame beside
it. II you go into jungles of India to
shoot tiger you are accompanied by a
long retnue. You shoot your prey from
the howdah of an elepahnt. If you miss
your victim there are twenty bullets
ready for him before he springs. A
person might as well go tiger hunting
in menagerie. The only unsatisfactory
part of the sport which wolves afford is
that after you are all through you
haven't anything to show for your
efforts. But it is great sport. Count

The st. Hyacinth parochial school has
drawn heavily from the Bridge street
school and all the departments have
been reduced in numbers from one-third
to over one-half. This probably will re-
suit iii a reorgani zation of this school,

like reduction in numbers, but in a
less degree, is noted in some Of the 9TH
er schools of the city.
