Saved from Perjury.

In a case before a Paris court, in
which a popular actress has had to ap-
pear as witness, the judge seems to
have shown considerable difidence
about asking the lady, as he was in
duty bound to do, what was her age.
Evidently he considered that such a
question, put to witness, would be a
direct Indictment to perjury, so he
asked her her age before she had been
sworn. How old are you, madam p"
he said. After little hesitation, the
lady owned to being twenty-nine years
of age "And now that you have told
the court your age" continued the gal
liant judge, you swear to tell the
truth, the whole truth, and nothing but
the truth"

NEW SHIP FOR THE NAVY.

Amphitrite Completed After Twenty
One Years Work.
Another vessel was added to the
United States navy recently by the
completion at the Norfolk navy yard
of the armored coast defense monitor
Amphitrite, which has been under
construction for the remarkable period
Of tWenty-one years. A telegram
reached the navy department from
Norfolk announcing the final compile
ton Of this job, which promised to go
on forever, like Tennyson's brook.
So great was the rejoicing at this news
that, while the spell was still on, the
secretary gave orders to have officers
and crew ready to put the Amphitrite
in commission at once. The Amphi-
trite has literally been built on the in
stallnient plan. In 1874 her keel was
laid and work progressed for time
until the partial appropriation then
available was exhausted. Other things
then occupied the attention of the de-
partment, and year or two passed be-
fore more money was set aside to carry
on the work. When this was done,
work was resumed and continued in
earnest until this second appropriation
was exhausted. Then there was delay
again until more money was in sight,
and so it has continued spasmodically
ever since. In the whole history Of the
American navy there is no other in
stance where the construction of
vessel was carried on for such a re-
markable period. There has never been
pressing need for the completion Of the
vessel, and it is probably a wise thing
after all that her construction went on
by such remarkably easy stages. From
year to year changes have been made in
the plan of the vessel to keep abreast
of the remarkable improvements in
naval architecture, and today the Am
phitrite is modern ship of war In
all respects, just as if she had been
originally designed year ago.

Wild and Domestic Animals.

The question as to what constitutes
a domestic animal and what is meant
by the term wild beast is becoming
more and more complicated For
while, on the one hand, the supreme
court of Maryland has recently de-
cided that the cat is a wild animal
within the meaning of the law, the SUI
preme court of appeal in France has
just issued decree to the effect that
wild bull is a domestic animal. This
remarkable decision has been rendered
in connection with the question as to
the illegality of bull-fghting, which
has hitherto been quite as much of a
national pastime in the South of France
as in Spain and Portugal. Inasmuch as
the court has now, once and for all,
determined that bull-ighting is con-
trary to law and therefore criminal,
no one need complain of this interpret
alton of the code, except for the prece-
dent that it affords of transforming
wild beasts into domestic pets by legal
procedure instead of by ordinary meth
DDS of tanning.

BUILDING A NEW EMPIRE.
How Russia Is Rapidly Developing the
Ey;cnaS NJ Sfhar.ia


Riches of Siberia.
In her interesting letters to the st.
James Gazette Mrs. Bishop draws
striking picture of the manner in which
the Russian government is opening up
the fertile regions of eastern Siberia.
Nikoloskoye is place of $4,000 inhabi-
tants, the center of large government
-four mill and elaborate barracks. For
many miles on either side the new ST.
berian railroad passes through nett
villages and prosperous farms. From
Spasskoje," says Mrs. Bishop, land east
of the Hanka lake up to Ussuri, the
magnificent region is waiting to be peo-
as rich as the prairies Of Illinois, and
a climate not only favorable to agricul-
ture, but to human health, all await
the settler; and the broad, unoccupied,
and fertile lands which Russian Man
churia offers are capable of supporting
population of many millions. Here
Russia is laying solidly the foundations
of a new empire, which she proposes
to make homogeneous one. No for
e1gner need apply! One thousand fam
lilies, assisted emigrants from Russia
of the best class, will come out next
year, and the number is to increase pro-
excessively. Each head of an emigrat-
ing household has to deposit 600 roubles
with a government official on leaving
Odessa, which he receives on landing
in Siberia, the emigrants, on reaching
Vladivostock, are lodged in excellent
emigrant barracks, and can buy the
necessary agricultural implements at
cost price from a government depot.
Already along the railroad houses are
springing up; and If security can be
obtained there is nothing to prevent
the country from being peopled up to
the Chinese frontier, the rivers Sun
gacha and Ussuri, which'form the boun-
dairy from the Hanka Lake to Khaba-
roffka, on the Amur, giving consid-
cradle protection from brigandage."

ComniCteu suicide AFTER Finding He

In an old scrapbook which has been
in the family of the editor of Notes
for the Curious for twenty-five or
thirty years, and which contains a
number of clippings without date,
find the following: William Har-
man, who committed suicide at Titus
vile, Pa, short time since, did so
because some one had convinced him
that he was his own grandfather! Here
is copy of the singular letter he left;
i married a widow who had grown-up
daughter. My father visited us often,
fell in love with my step-daughter and
married her. Thus he became my
son-in-law, and my step-daughter be-
came my mother, because she was my
fathers wife. Soon after this my wife
gave birth to a son, which, of course.
was my fathers brother in-law, and
my uncle, for he was the brother oil
my stepmother. My fathers wife also
became the mother of a son. He was,
of course, my brother, and also my
grandchild, for he was the son of my
daughter. Accordingly my wife was
my grandmother, because she was my
mothers mother. / was my wife's hus-
band and grandchild at one and the
same time And as the husband of a
persons grandmother is his grand
father, / was my own grandfather! "

LOST ONLY ONE PAIR.
Man Who Leased Skates Told Thackeray
of but One Loss

Man Who Leased Skates Told ThacI<eray
of but One Loss.
Thackeray once asked one of the men
who lets out skates on the Serpentine
whether he had ever lost pair through
the omission to exact deposit, and he
replied that he had never done so ex-
cept on one occasion, when the cir
cumstances made it almost pardonable.
A well-dressed young fellow was hay
ing his second skate fastened on when
he suddenly broke away from the
mans hands and dashed onto the ice.
The next instant thick-set, powerful
man was clamoring for another pair.
Il shall nab him now" he cried, 'for
am dab at skating. He was sher-
ifs officer in pursuit of his prey, and
a very animating sight it was to watch
the chase. He was, as he had boosted,
a first-rate skater, and it became pres
emily obvious that he was running
down his man. Then the young fellow
determined to run desperate risk for
liberty. The ice, as usual, under the
bridge was marked Dangerous" and
he made for it at headlong speed. The
ice bent beneath his weight, but he got
safely through. The sheriff's officer
followed with equal pluck, but, being
a heavier man, broke through and was
drowned. His skates" said the mar
rator of the incident, Il got back after
the inquest, but those the young gen.
tleman had on l never saw again."
