Russian Justice.

General Van Wahl, chief constable of
the police of St. Petersburg, when he
was governor at Kiev, received visit
one day from a poor woman, widow of
police agent who had fallen a victim
to duty. For a long time she had solic-
tied the pension which was due her.
The head Of the police to whom she had
addressed her demand paid no attention
to her plea.
In her distress the widow went to
the governor and told him her story.
"Ah, yes, We'll see what can be
done, said General Wahl. "Sit down
there and write what tell you, point
ing to writing table.
Tho widow took a seat and wrote
from the governors dictation long
supplication. "Now address it," he
said, 'and wait for me in the next
ROOM. "
A few minutes later the woman was
recalled, and the general gave into her
hands sealed letter, saying the while
to her, ''Talzo this letter to the head
constable, take care not to open it, and
come back to me as soon as you have q
reply"
a week afterward the woman appear
ed at the palace again. Her pension had
been granted, and she thanked the gov
ernor with JOY.
1T is useless to thank me- l am moth
ing i'll the affair, said he, and imme-
diately gave the following order:
1.-The head of the police at Kiev is
dismissed from his post and sent into
exile; the reason, because he granted
demand after receiving a sum of money
for so doing'
General Wahl had, unknown to the
woman, slipped into her letter bank
note for 25 rublos, which accounted
for her s0pplication being granted

MODERN BODY ARMOR
Quito Lot of It Exists and Is Worn In
Spite of the Time.

I30 experiments with bullet proof
coats and material which have been
conducted here and abroad have called
attention to the fact that mail protec
tion did not entirely pass away with
the shelving Of the shield and cuirass
Many English officers still wear Il par
tlal armOr when serving on foreign sta
tions.
The cOmmonest and most usual type
OF these projections consists Of fine but
beautifully tempered single chains, in
closed III soft leather, which run along
the shoulders, dOWl the outer side Of
the arms, and over certain parts of the
body These can either be seWed into d
particular tunic, or they can be adjusted
separately and put on like harness.
Hundreds upon hundreds of these sets
are sold. The most valuable Of all
chains in connection with iccouterments
are those which guard the head, and in
cases where the regulation cap or he'll
met is not sufficiently protected in this
way specially made chains are sewed
inside the same and covered by the lin
ing.
Only those who have been in actual
conflict know how valuable all the
chains mentioned are III minimizing the
effects Of sword cuts. As regards pro
lection both from sword and bullet the
general belief nowadays seems to be i'll
thoroughly tanned leather, and great
quantities are made for officers the IA

of the late Sir Richard Burton-boing

ridge down the ceut,r of the chest
Many stories are told by officers Of bul-
lets which have been ayerteu in some de-
gree by these leather tunics, solno of
which are lined Witli woven steel Wire
OF course none Of these Things are sup
posed to be an absolute protection, but
only a sort OF palliative.
A London Aausmith, who sells great

LINCOLN AND MCCLELLAN.
The Latter Was Kept In Command Be-
cause of Public Feeling.

S''unt VI EtellIS.
Just before the battle of Chancellors-
vile | visited the Army of the Potomac,
its headquarters being then at Fal-
mouth, i'll President Lincoln's company.
We We're detained Ell route by storm
and spent one night on board the steam
er anchored i'll the Potomac. In the
course OF conversation that evening the
president was communicative and in a
confidential mood and discussed the mil
ltary situation with much freedom.
Speaking of Mcclellan he said, 81 kept
Mcclellan i'll command after I had ex-
pocted that he would win victories sim
ply because | knew that his dismissal
would provoke popular indignation and
shake the faith of the people in the final
success of the war.
Very soon after the battle of Chancel-
lorsville and before the battle of Gettys-
burg was fought the old rumor of Nc
Clellan's recall again got upon it's legs,
to the great CONSERVATION of many of
Lincoln's friends in Washington This
report was more than usually vigorous
and plausible. Hooker S failure at Chan
cellorsville and the blow which his
military prestige had suffered in conse-
quence gave public opinion decidedly
sharp flip One evening, while this
rumor was gaining strength, / CHANGED
to be in the family sitting room at the
White House, where the president, Mrs.
Lincoln and several callers were assem-
bled, when an indiscroet young lady di-
rectly attacked Lincoln with the eXtraor-
dlnary question:
Mr.. President, is Mcclellan going
to be recalled to the command of the
Army of the Potomac?'
The president good naturedly parried
this home thrust, but gave no satisfacto-
ry answer. Afterward joining in the
conversation, l intimated to the presi-
dent that as he had not settled the mat
ter there probably might be some
ground for the general suspicion that
Mcclellan would be recalled Lincoln,
who sat near me, put on very severe
look, and turning said in an undertone,
"And you too?" l instantly recalled
our conversation OH the steamer and
apologized for my lack of faith He then
added, Il see you remember the talk
we had on the Carrie Martin. Noah

FOR HIS BRAVERY.
How Edward, Prince of Wales, Won the
Title of Black Prince.

In the summer of the year 1916 Ed
ward Ill crossed tho English channel
with 30, 900 men to invade France. At
met on tie Goth of August by King
Philip with 1870, 600.
While the French We're coming on
III great disorder there was Il total
eclipse OF the sun, accompanied By a
terrible storm, after which the sun came
out brightly, shining directly i'll the
faces of the French, but on the backs of
the English.
The first charge was made by Is, 900
tenoese bOwmen, who came forward
with a shout, as though to scare the
English The latter, who had been or
dcred to lie fiat on the earth, now arose,
stepped forward q pace and let 90 their
arrows SO fast that they seemed like
binding snow.
Thc Genoese fled, and the French king
ordered them to be cut down, so that
they would not hinder tho rest of the
army.
In the meantime Edward, the prince
of Wales, who was in command of one
division, was surrounded by French
knights, who, recognizing his rank, de-
termincd to capture or kill him. A mes
sage was sent to the king telling him
that the prince was hard pressed
Is my son dead or hurt or on the
earth felled?" he asked.
''No, SIRE" was the reply.
"Well, then, said the king, "return
to them that sent you and tell them to
send no more to me as long as my son
is alive, | command them to suffer the
child to win his spurs, for this day
should be his. -
Thc young prince was indeed in great
danger. AT one time he was unhorsed
and struck to the ground, but one Of his
Welsh knights, who carried the great
dragon standard, threw it over him as
he lay and stood upon it till the enemy
was forced back
Soon the tide of battlo had turned for
tho English. Edward came down from
high hill overlooking the field and
took his son i'll his arms and kissed him.
You are my true son." he said
Right royalty have you acquitted your
self and shown yourself to be sover-
eign.''
Young Edward on this occasion wore
Il sait of black ;rmor which so contrast
cd with his crimson and gold surcoat
ald the brilliantly fair complexion Of
his round, bOyiah face that he was call
ed from that timo the Black Prince -

a Big Calculation In Water.

The ocean, sea and lake surface of
our planet is estimated at something
like l45, 600, 600 square miles, with an
average depth of IL, 600 feet, and is cal
culated to contain not less than 3,270,-
600, 900, 600, 600 tons of water. The riv-
ers of the earth are estimated to have a
flow sufficient to cover 36 cubic miles
of the above area each day. Now, if all
the oceans We're suddenly dried and tho
rivers could keep up their present rate
Of flow, which, of course they could not
without ocean evaporation, it would
take 3, 900 years to refill the basin.-

A High Calling

Judge Sulzberger spoke truth which
is too often forgotten when he said, in
Il speech at the high school, that ''there
is not teacher i'll the land that has a
higher function than has the lowest
teacher in the lowest class of the prima-
ry school. They have souls before them,
and the faculties of those active, rest
less souls have all to be called forth. !"
II these few fitting words are embraced
tho whole scope and possibilities of ed
ucation, and they make the primary
teachers calling point of dignity and
responsibility the peer of any vocation
that concerns mankind. Philadelphia
