SENTENCED 70 SIBERIA.

An Entire Regiment Sent to Exile for
Their Blundering Mansuvering.
On one occasion during a parade of
his Horse guards, Emperor Paul, of
Russia, was extremely dissatisfied with
the manner In which the troops per-
formed their eyolutions. At length,
says the San Francisco Argonaut, after
. more than ordinarily stupid blunder
ON the part Of the troops, the car
could stand it no longer, and he deter
mined to preside over the drill in per-
son. The troops were well aware that
the cxar's temper was on the verge of
bubbling over, and the knowledge so
unnerved them that things went from
bad to worse, until at last blunder
supervened "a blunder in which officers
and men shared alilxe) which proved
the climax. Galloping up to the disor-
ganized lines and refining mp his
charger at their head, livid with the
fury which he no longer attempted to
suppress, Paul gave vent to the follow
ing original and effective speech: ssOf-
fcers and troopers Of the Imperial
Horse guardsi Right about facet
Quick-march--to Siberia" The en-
tire regiment with unbrolxcn ccanpoeure
and dignity, wheeled to the right and
started of then and there upon their
terrible march into exile. BY the time
that they had arrived ut point lying
some few days' march from the capital,
the czar's temper having cooled down.

THE EGG DANCE.
4 Beautiful Feat Performed by HIN,
juggling 0lrls-


a Beautiful Feat Performed by Hindoo
Juggling 0irls-
One Of the most wonderful Of the
many feats performed by Hindoo Jug
glers Is the egg dance. Usually It Is
executed by girl Enthusiastically dressed.
She makes use Of the willow wheel,
around which at equal distances are
threads, and 1t the end Of each thread
there Is . moose, held open by bead.
This wheel the girl places on her
head, while she carries y basket Of eggs
on her arm. When the music strikes
up she begins TO dance and the wheel
begins TO spin around. She then takes
IN egg from the basket, places it in ono
of the thread nooses, and throws IL
from her with sufficient force to draw
the knot tight. The spinning Of the
wheel keeps the thread stretched with
the egg ut the end Of II.
She then takes another egg from the
basket, places IL in another moose, and
repeats this until there Is an egg in
every moose. Her fantastic costume,
her perfect motion, and all the eggs
swinging on the stretched threads at
once, presents very pretty sight in
deed. 1t requires much art to execute
the dance, for at one false step the eggs
would be dashed together, the dance
spoiled and the dancer thereby dis
graced.
After dancing for time with all the
eggs swinging around her head, she
takes them out Of the moose one by one,
al the time keeping the wheel balanced
and in motion, and again places them
in the basket ON her arm.
When the dance Is flnished the spec
tators are allowed to examine the eggs
70 see that they are real.

II fish once gets into pound net 1t
never gets out until II is taken out; but
as matter of fact fish often get out of

shad to get out of them. I've been to a
pound net on Sunday and counted 2ss
