The Kamaoulie Koloko, or bell, is
one of the most curious sights in To-
bolslS. This bell is called by the Rus
slams 1.-THE bell with the ear torn off"
and is kept in kind of shed near the
archbishop's palace, where its romantic
history is always to be heard. In the
sixteenth century Prince Dimitri, the
rightful heir to the Russian throne, was
deposed by revolt headed by Boris

car. The seat Of the Russian govern
ment was at Uglich, and there Dimitri
was sent to be under the immediate con-
troll of the unlawful ruler.
The usurper. fearing that the popu-
lace might awake TO the claims OF the
young prince, planned his assassination,
and he was one day stabbed in the yard,
none of the bystanders showing the
slightest disposition to help him.
A priest, however, who saw the crime
from the cathedral belfry, Immediately
commenced to toll the great bell, which
was only rung on such occasions as the
coronation Of the car.
The czar, furious at this expression
Of reproach commanded that the priest
should be- tortured and executed, and
that the bell should be pulled down and
placed beside the body of its ringer.
The order was fulfilled, and the bell
was beaten by the whole populace head
ed by the car himself.
In those days Siberian exiles were
tortured before setting out on their jour
ney by having their nostrils torn Oft
with redhot pinchers. 1t was decreed
that the bell should be exiled to Tobolsk,'
but as it had no nostrils the ruler of all
the Russias commanded, with grim
humor, that one of its clappers should
be removed in order to indicate its dis
grace. London Tit-Bits.

she consented to please him.

"Do you consider that good reason

"Have pity on me-"

with rage. "Who dares to speak to me
of a mirror" she said, grinding her
teeth.

young girl whom you see before you, SO
fresh and pretty, is the victim of a
strange delusion. She imagines that she

"Well, said the queen, with ma

a more hideous object.

she would die of modification. Doubt

A SUMNER SCENE.

Laden come the maidens home.
With peoples and wild roses,
Singing ditties as they come,
And blushing like their posies.
Crowned is one merry maid
With coronal of poppy;
Nature has with beauty played,
To make faultless copy.
Laughter gathers in her eye,
Her every movement bushes;
Harkl she moclzs q lovers sigh
With songs in birdlike gushes.
Cupid, should he pass her way,
For lack of strength must tarry;
She will steal his bow away
And bid the rogue go marry.

OF A GARDEN.

Within my garden bounds are set
Sweet memory and sad regret,
And where my orchard blossoms glow
The winds of life forever blow.
Here falls the rain, here springs the
seed.
The perfect flower. the perfect weed,
Rejoice together, side by side,
In equal sunlight, satisfied.
The fruit that mingles gold and red
Is born of beauty withered.
Tho fruit that mingles red and gold
Is young because the bough is old.
My garden and the world inclose
Alike the tAistle and the rose.
My garden and the world are one
In kinship both Of storm and sun.

The Niagara Falls Water-POwer.

The right to use water from the Mag
ara river in unlimited quantity and with
out compensation to the State of New
York is claimed by the following six
concerns LOckport Water & Electric Co.,
Niagara County Irrigation & Water Co.,
Lewiston Water Supply Co., Buffalo &
Niagara Power & Drainage Co., Niagara
Power q Development Co., and the
Niagara, Lockport & Ontario Power Co.
The commissioners Of the Niagara Falls
reservation state that these companies
now have legislative authority to take
water from the river, and the Niagara
Falls Power Company, chartered in 1886,
is now actually drawing water from that
source and is authorized to develop 2OO,-
900 horse power, which will require 6
per cent. Of the average flow Of the river
Another company, the Hydraulic Power
& Manufacturing Co., is enlsrging it's
canal without authority, and has been
taking water for many years The COM
missioners believe that the falls will be
seriously affected by these enterprises
and they especially withhold their con-
sent from the proposed increased ap-
preparation to a total of 100000 horse
