The Irish SchOOlmaster,

In the days when teachers were few and
far between an old fashioned Irish school
master went the rounds from district to
district. OF him many stories are still
told in the regions through which he tray
elcd. He did an excellent work on the
whole and trained in the three RS" many
men who aftcrward became prominent in
public life, but this broad Irish accent
was the occasion of many laughable scenes
between him and his pupils.
On one occasion the master examined
his school from the spelling book before
the committeeman. He always called the
boys by their last names, pronouncing
their Christian names last, as In a roll
call
Brown, Payterr' the master shouted.
Peter Brown stepped forth tremblingly.
"Phat is the pleyrul of the wurrud
'fut?'"
Pctcr had no knowledge of any such
word as 'fut, " but he answered al random:
"Futsrr
Wrong ye airel" thundered the mas
ter. "Tho plyural of fut' is fate. Sit
down. Bill, Jccms, shtand oppl'
James Bell rose
"DiffOinc the wurrud lake."
"a lake is IA large body of water"
"Blockheads ye all airc the day." shout.

Michael Oooley stepped up with conf.
dent and somewhat roguish CLEAN in his
gray eyes. He was the son of recent set
tier of the schoolmaster! nationality.
The master quickly perceived the know
ing look in the boys eye.
IAN whoy do We LUX at me wud the car
ner O. yer OF, Dooly, Moichael?" he ex-
claimed. Is it that ye think I'd be put
tin ye a wurrud in the Oirish language?
It's brogue ye suspect me af, is itP"
Michael's freckled features betrayed a
grin, though he tried to suppress it by
keeping his lips shut together very tightly
indeed.
"Faix, ye shall have utl' said the
schoolmaster. Spill and defoine me

This real word from the Irish language.
which means 'trangressions, was too
much even for the special knowledge of
the bright IrishAmerican boy, and boo
ly, Moichael" went down with the rest.
The committeeman were convinced that
they had schoolmaster of wonderful
erudition and capacity. -Scottish Ameri-

An American in Siberia.

The story of Enoch Emcrys life in ST.
IBERIA is full of interest to the whole world.
1t is of peculiar interest to the people of
the cape, MS he is native of the county.
He went from Yarmouth a boy. His am
bition led him to the generally uninvitng
country of siberia, the land of suffering,
the dumping ground of Russia's convicts.
Mr.. Emery has now resided in Russia
for ~ years, whore he has established an
extensive general merchandise business,
with headquarters at Moscow. He has
made IL tours of the world, always via
Siberia, and naturally has had many
thrilling experiences while travelling
through this country. While en- route
from Mini Novgorod to Nladivostok he
has changed his horses as many as 500
times.
He has become greatly Interested in
the construction of the railroad across ST.
IBERIA, which he describes as one of tho
greatest projects undertaken. The road,
he says, will probably DO completed about
1898 and will result in the rapid develop
ment of the Siberian territory. The line,
when completed, will be 6, 200 miles in
length. Its starting point is Cheliabinsk,
on the western extremity of Siberia, where
it connects with an English system of
railways running to st. Petersburg by
way Of Moscow. About 20, 900 men, most
ly cxiled cOnvicts are being employed in
tho construction of the road, which is en-
tirely under the supervision of govern
ment commission, of which the czarowitz
is president, and will of course be operated
under the direction of the government
when completed.
Since Mr. Emery went to Russia from
this country he has accumulated large
fortune. His stories of wild sledge rides
by night over the ice and snow and of the
tigers of the Obi and Amur are in the
highest degree interesting. He met George
KEENAN, the first time he went to Russia
and has ever since maintained a close ac-
workmanship. Although he is Cape
Cod Yankee, from his long residence in
Siberia he has become thoroughly Russian
lied He has Slavonic accent and dresses
after the style of the Russian. He is TALL
spare, distinguished looking gentleman
with flowing beard, parted in the middle
Mr. Emery's life and experience are a
striking example Of what the adventurous
ardor of an American can accomplish in
the face of almost insurmountable diff
oulties. He says that he has lived so long
in Russia that he at times almost doubts
his identity with the little Yankee boy
who left his New England home so many
years go.-Provincetown Beacon.
