To Adopt tho American System.

A London correspondent says the gov
eminent will probably grant a strong
petition recently presented for the ap-
pointment of a commission to consider
the adoption of the American patent sys-
tenn in England. The chief point at is
sue is whether a system of preliminary
examinations into the novelty of inven-
tions should be introduced. Legal and
scientific opinions are keenly and pretty
evenly divided IN the subject.

A trustworthy Rome correspondent
telegraphs that, the pope is SO impressed
with the desperate condition of Italian
affairs that he has sought to ascertain
from the foreign representatives at the
Vatican whether they have received
from their governments instructions
what to do in case of a revolution. 1t is
understood that all the replies were in
the negative.

I1TE Story OF ALEXANDER III

Alexander Alexandrovitch was the second
son OF Alexander H. and OF Princess Maria,
daughter of the late Duke of Hesse- Darn
stadt. and was born March 10, 1S45 The
eldest boy Nicholas Alexandroyitch died at
Nice. in 1865 He is said to have been a
miracle OF goodness and cleyerness. Nicholas
was tall and slender, and as handsome as his
grandfather. His countenance had charm
Of expression which captiyated everyone.
He was the pet OF his mother, OF the whole
court. and OF the nation. General sorrow
followed his death. The Russian people
erected q temple in their hearts to his men,
ory. and greeted the ukase which declared
Alexander Alexandrovitch his successor to
the title of Czarevitch with clear tokens OF
dissatisfaction.
Alexander ILL.,, when he became the heir to
the throne at the age Of 20, had all the odds
against him. The nation disliked him. Like
all the grand dukes Of Russia not destined to
Sit on the throne, his education was exclu-
eivelv military. It was serious obstacle to
his becoming good sovereign. He had no
scientific instruction aud no knowledge OF
foreign languages except French. OK politics
and sciology he new next to nothing. He
was inclined to q life of pleasure rather than
one of labor. To acquire the necessary quail
iGcations for his new calling was serious
task He was obliged at once to enter upon
the duties OF a crown prince He had seat
in the council Of state. He was forced to take
an interest in executive affairs and In ques-
tions Of public policy, and to show by deeds
and words that he was endowed with as much
Judgment as his lamented brother.
Alexander had married on November g.
1865. Maria Dagmar, daughter Of King Chris
tian TX. of Denmark, being the first of hi
house for many years who had married out
: side of Germany 1t may have been acciden
that caused the selection Of other than Ger
man princes for the wife, but taken int
consideration with his later acts it seems t
prove that his more recent pronounced aver
sion to the Teutons showed itself by thi
marriage,

He Was Fed.

That old motto, "Where there is a
will there is way" though now a
little out of fashion, perhaps, and
somewhat exaggerated, as is the case
with notices in general is still ex-
pressive of truth.
Writing Of old times at White Sui
phur Springs, Gen. Maury says there
were many c mplaintS of the fare at
the hotel. The dignifel proprietor
used to console his guests by remark
ing that the really paid nothing for
their dinners, but only for the won
derful sulphur water which he had
discovered.
One day in the height of the sea-
son, when the crowd was great and
the service Scanty, the people in the
dining room were startled by heart
rcnding cries of "Murder, Murder" Z"
Steward and servants rushed to the
victim, who in answer to their eager
inquiries informed them that he
could get nothing to eat, and was dy-
ing of starvation
That young man was served well
and promptly as long as he remained

The Faults of English Cavalry.

The tradition still clingS to the
British cavalry Of undisciplined and
headlong recklessness in the hcld-Ot
all fruits the most ruinouS Yelling
ton considered his cavalry in the
Peninsula so inferior to that OF the
French, from want of order, that he
was reluctant to use it unless when
in supeIior strength; and he said,
speaking of Waterloo: Napoleon
had his cavalry in order: mine would
gallop, but could not preserve their
order"
It was this gallant but undsci-
pllned propensity to get out Of hand
which in the battle Of Waterloo, as
the issue of single charge, reduced
Lord Uxbridge's splendid division OF
heavy cavalry to single squad on.
The wild gallop of The "Thi d Light" "
through the heart of the * halsa camn
in the evening dusk Of FerOzeshah'
like the charge of the Light Brigade
down the north va ley of Balaclava,
twas magnificent, but it was not

his admiration of the prolongatiOn OF

stances that 1.-The two ranks which
had begun the advance were con-
verted by degrees into one. "-Black

THREE KILLED.
An Inhuman Crime Committed
in Upper Luzerne'
BUILDING BLOWN TO ATOMS
Dynamite Placed Under the Center
and the Four Corners-Sixty Per-
sons Lived There.-A Battery
Supplied the Fatal Spark.

A large Hungarian clearinghouse OF
raurel Run. Luzerne county, Pa, was blown
up BY dynamitards at o'clock In the morn
ing. Three of the inmates were killed OUT
rioht. four fatally injured and half dozen
seriously hurt.
Twenty-four sticks Of dynamite were
placed under the building, each being about
nine inches long and weighing about hall a
nound. wire connected the sticks with bat
terry, situated about fifty yards away. "nen
the signal was given and the current turned
on only about a half Il dozen OF tho SUCKS
exploded. They were sufficient however, 10
completely wreck the building, not a oeam OF
plank Of which was left standing.
Several of the inmates who occupied BEDS
in the upper floor we're hurled 80 feet In the
air. Some Of them escaped fatal injuries Ny
aligh.ing in the trees near by. Hail oazeu
by fear and sleep, they managed to noid on
to the limbs until they recovered their senses
and were able to reach the ground
A track-walker, who arrived on the scene
shortly after the explosion, says some ol the
injured were in the trees; others were lying
on the ground and under the depriS 0i 'ne
wrecked building
One of the boarders who escaped injury
made his way to a neighboring shanty ana
awoke the inmates. Blankets and bedding
were carried to the scene and the injured
made AS comfortable as possible.
At daylight the officials OF the Lehigh Val
ley Railroad were notified, and a special
tram with a number of physicians was hur-
ried to the scene. The doctors dressed tho
wounds Of the injured who were taken to
the hospital in Wilkesbarre.
The boarding boss says he is at loss as to
wat prompted the dastardly deed. AS lar
as he knows, he has no enemies in the Worid'
Some of the boarders think the motive was
robbery, as several of them were known 10
have considerable money in their possession.
II this was the object of the nends, it Is PLAIN
why they placed so much Of the explosive
under tho building. They wanted TO XIII
every pefson in the place to get the plunder
and then escape detection.
One OF the W0anded men says Immediately
after the explosion he saw four strange men
running down the roadway leading to the
village OF Miners Mill They carried lanterns.
While he lay on the ground another stranger
approached him and rifled his pockets. He
also cut the bet which encircled his waiet
and carried it away. Another OF the iniureI
gives it as his opinion that the men seen on
the ground after the explosion were tramps.
The dynamitards usel Pitsburg dynamite,
which fact may lead to their discovery, as
dynamite Of that character is used by the
railroad contractors, whose toolhou'e Is
near the scene The house had been broken
open and new battery taken out An old
battery was found near by. The supposition
is that the latter would not work and new
one was necessary.

peace and quiet. For ten years there had
been nothing heard Of nihilism except in the

unguarded and unattended. He was in the

sentiments ofa1ection Of the Russian people
toward the Emperor constituted protection
much stronger than police protection could
afford The previous Emperor had been
guarded by police. and yet he met assassina-
