The story OF Horror. on the Island 81
saghalien Deaied.

LONDON, Oct. "a Early this year the Standard
printed a story about the horrors of life in the
Russian convict settlements on the island OF
SaGhalien. Murder. mutilation. starvation. and
cannibalism were among the desperate features
OF the settlements as described by the CORE
spondent. An unhroken procession Of conveys
with mntilated corpses, he said, passed from
Onor to RykOVskaya. Asnsual, u most vicious
convict who had won the favor Of the COM
mandant was represented 10 be the author OF
the worst atrocities, In this case his name was
given as RhakOn.
An open letter from RykovskayA was pub
llshed to-day over the signature 81 DE Windt
denying most OF this story. Careful research
says the writer, showed that there was only one
case OF cannibalism on record in the Saghalen
settlements, Three conYicts escaped to the
forest. and two Of them ate the other one. One
of the cannibals was found to b. insane. The
other one was hogged, and eventually died of
blood poisoning. The description OF the endless
conveys with Corpses Is described as utterly nm
founded. The mutilatinns are said 10 have been
self-inticted, the invariable puTInse being 10
escape work. RhakOff, or more properly Ria
non, had never been inspector or an Inspectors
or commandments favorite, and had never killed
anybOdy. He was guilty nf diabnlical cruelty 10
his comrades, however. and was thrown into
prison in Rykovsksya, where he now awaits
trial

FIVE cCNsoNANTs IN A ROW.
A Polish Name That sounds Good DcI
 Like Two Sncczes.

4 Polish Name That sounds Good Deal
 Like Two Sncczes.
 A subscriber to tho Milwaukee Sen tinel is curious to know tho correct pro- nunciation of the Polish name Brzczen- ski. He came across it in an account of an affray which took place on Sobieski street. that city, and evinced desire to master its pronunciation. On investi- gation it was found that the name, if really spelled as indicated. must be pronounced Bsh-tchinski, the ''rZ" be- ing sounded about as the English ''sh, and the "cZ'' as the ''tch'' in "hitch- ing"
 Some of tho Poles in Milwaukee are in favor of reform in the spelling of their names. As matter of fact, the let ters in the Polish alphabet do not repre- sent tho same sounds as the letters in the Latin or English alphabet. For in- stance, the Polish W is equivalent to the English V, and the sometimes assumes the sound of sh, the that of the Eng fish z in azure. The Polish tongue con- tains n great many more sounds than the old Latin did, and in order to ex- press the additional sounds in Latin characters it was found necessary to combine different consonants. The re- suit is that a person familiar only with the English language regards the Polish names as jawbreakers and despairs over their pronunciation.
 A reform in tho spelling of Polish names similar to the reform adopted by Mime. Modjeska in the spelling of her name would be n great relief to hun dreds of people. Modjeska's name in Polish is spelled Modrzejewska, in a manner in which no Englishman or American living would be able to pro- nounce it. Chervinski would sound the same way as Czerwinski. only everybody would be able to read it.

EARLY THANKSGIVING DAYS.

The first -ccorded Thanksgiving was the Hebrew feast of the TabcrnaclcS.
 The first national Thanksgiving procla- nations wCrc hy congress during the Revo- lutiOnary war.
 The first national English Thanksgiving was on SCIt. s, l5SS, for the defeat of tho Spanish armada.
 The New England Thanksgiving dates from l633, when the Massachusetts Bay colony set apart n day for thanksgiving.
 There have been but two English Thanksgivings in this century. One was on Feb P, 1872, for the recovery of the Prince of Wales from illness; the other, June 2l, 1881, for the queens jubilee.
 The first great American Thanksgiving day was in 17s4 for the declaration of peace. There was one moro national Thanksgiv- ing in l7S9, and no other till 1863, when President Lincoln issued a national proc lamatiOn for Il day of thanksgiving.

A Stable Forcwoman.

When John Thompsos, who drives a coal cart for J. T. Story of Kent avenue and Wilson street. Brooklyn, was ar raigned in the Gates avenue police court the other day before Justice Quigley on a charge of driving lame horse, n stout, elderly woman stepped to the bar and commenced speaking:
 ''You have nothing to do with this case." said the justice.
 Indeed I have," said the woman. "I am foreman of Mir. Story's stables. and can assure you that the horse only went lame the day of the arrest.
 When the justice had recovered from his surprise, he was informed that Mrs. Mary Rocket was indeed forewoman over a stable containing 50 horses.
