East and wsat Meet In MOSCOW.

The semioricntal city Of Moscow
makes a more effective background fol-
the browning Of a sovereign than any
other town in ChristendOm. It is a
spectacle in itself-a strange tumble Of
Samarkand and the most progressive OF
western American cities. 1t possesses
more telephones and general electrical
plant than does London, probably, but il
has no sewerage system whatever. In
some respects it could give lessons in
mOdernity to Birmingham or Glasgow.
In others it could learn them from the
dervishes Of the remotest Sudan.
The east and west tread on each other
at every corner Of the holy city. 1t
makes fitting stage for the dramatic
series of tableaus which Russia has been
preparing for months past. The royal
and official guests from abroad, who
are to be numbered by thousands, and
for that matter, the young imperial cou-
pie. who are nominGlly their hosts,
have as little in common with the real
Russia which pays the bills for the
festivities, as tho bishop Of Peterborough
has with the unwashed and unlettered
monks who beg at the doors of the Sla-
vanski bazaar. Saturday Review

A lawyer tells the following story in
The Green Bag: "Some time ago we
had under cross examination a youth
from the country who rejoiced in the
name Of Samson and whose replies
were provocative of much laughter in
the court. And So questioned the
barrister, you wish the court to believe
that you are a peaceably disposed and
inoffensive kind of persona yes. And
that you have no desire to follow in the
steps of your illustrious namesake and
smite the PhilistinesP No; I've not, ;
answered the witness, and if 1 had the
desire I amt got the power at present.
Then you think you would be unable
to cope successfully with 1000 enemies
and utterly rout them with the jawbone
of an ass?' We'll, answered the ruffled
Samson, 4 might have a try when you
have done with the weapon.

What He Was Doing,

Into an alley ON Fifth street, between
Jefferson and Market, young fellow
who had the appearance Of country
hayseed wandered yesterday and stood
near the entrance, gazing up at the show
bills, reading them aloud and spelling
them aloud as he read. He attracted the
attention of the passersby, who gathered
around him and commenced guying him.
He stood it pretty we'll for awhile, and
suddenly faced about in reply to a query
as to what he was doing and said to his
questioner, GIVE iist bin waitin to see
how long a gentleman could stand here
and mind his own business before some
burned fool would ask him what he was

What Produccs Perfume.

According to NJ. Eugene Mesnard, it
is not oxygen but light which is the
main cause of the transformation and
destruction Of the odorous principles,
although in many cases the two agents
act in concert. In producing the perfume
of plants light acts both as a chemical
and mechanical power. The intensity of
the perfume of flowers depends upon the
balance established at every hour of the
day between the pressure of water in
their celluIes, which tends to drive the
perfumes outward, and the drying action
Of light. Where there is too much heat
there is too little scent. This is due to
the excess Of light and the dearth of
water.-Cincinnati Enquirer.
