There never lived a man who detested
self-ostentation and advertisement more
than the Rev. Thomas Motley, the ia
nous writer. 1t is told of him that when
he went to see a publisher about an early
book of his the publisher, who knew him
only as a quiet country clergyman, was
rather doubtful as to his literary capacity
and asked him if he had ever written
anything before for publication.

force on hand was powerless to stem the
tide of the crush of humanity. what
added greatly to the disaster was the fact
that these booths were surrounded Nv
bitches. The foremost persons in the
incoming crowds fell PROSTATE in these
bitches. and the people following them
speedily trampled them to death. Others
stumbled over their bodies and met the
same fate. And so the horror grew.
No Americans Hurt.
There were no English people nor Amer
leans among the victims. The czar and
czarina today, after attending requiem
mass in the chapel of the Kremlin, paid
a visit to the injured survivors in the
hospitals, passing from cot to cot and
addressing words Of sympathy and COM
fort.
A judicial inquiry has been opened into
the causes of the disaster. and an effort
will be made to fix the responsibility.
The scene at the celebration of divine
service at the cemetery today was most
impressive, some $4,000 people being PRES
ont. The majority of those were seeking
missing relatives in the mortuary cnam-
hers, and their grief and despair was
indescribable. AS fast as a body was
identified a sacred icon Gmage) was
placed upon the breast. Those bodies
which are claimed by relatives or friends
have been inferred in the church yards
Of the communities to which they be-
long.
Notwithstanding Scenes.
Everywhere in the city are excited
groups of people discussing the disas-
ter, the significant proportions of which
they have at last come to realize. The
streets present some saddening con-
trasts in the coronation decorations,
very few of which have been removed,
and the gaily dressed populace, who. hav-
ing escaped with their friends, continue
their holiday merrymaking, while ev-
cry few yards men are carrying Collins
on their shoulders or across their knees
in droshkies. The police and force Of
soldiers with fixed bayonets have been
keeping order all the day at the GEM
etery, where an amending stream of peo-
pie have been passing all day.
All day there were most affecting
scenes, relatives and priests praying here
and there beside the dead ranged upon
the grass, surrounded by still larger num-
bers of the unidentified dead. People
came on the ground looking for missing
ones, only to find other relatives Ell
gagged in dressing the bodies of the lest,
while others were sitting sobbing and
apparently helpless beside their dead.
The funerals commenced at 2 p. M,
amid most demonstrative scenes of grief.

Witty Retort of Priest to a Vulgar anu

 Concerning the celebrated Father Darcy, probably the greatest wit of that witty nation, Ireland, it is re- lated, says the Milwaukee Journal, that he once visited the palatial mansion of perfect specimen of the nouveaux riches who lived in the neighborhood of Dublin at the invitation of it's pompous owner. He was shown all over the house, his host taking great pains, as is habitlfal in such cases, to keep the witty and observant priest well in- formed as to the cost of all the beauti full things he was shown. Finally, after making the complete tour of the chateau, the library was reached, its tremendous shelves grooming under the weight of thousands upon thousands of volumes, resplendent in the most magnificent bindings. Here they seat ed themselves, and the host said, with sigh of snobbish exultation:
 "Well, father, I have brought you here last because this is my favorit- room. The other rooms maybe give pleasure to my wife and my daughters, but this is my place-right here among these books, who are my friends. And these here on the desk (pointing to a score of ultra-looking volumes), are what I may call my intimate friends" :"
 Father Darcy got up and examined one of them, when broad grin spread over his good-natured face, as he said:
 "Well, it's glad I am to see that you never cut your intimate friends

CAMEL'S EXPERIENCE.

Sat Down So Much That His Hind Legs
 Became Useless.
 A large camel which was landed at Hoboken a few days ago from the Bremen line steamer Dresden had an experience which probably never be- fore fell to the lot of "a ship of the des- ert.''
 He made the voyage in large bcx, and as there wasn't room enough in it for any self-respecting animal the camel sat down in sheer disgust. He sat that way for days and days while the ship rolled and made all sorts of heavy weather.
 When the dejected animal was finally landed and tried to stand up, he couldn't use his rear props at all. They had be- come paralyzed from their long stay in a cramped position. The camel wasn't any good, it seemed, and as big price had been paid for him there was gen eraI lamentation. The camel was Sin on the lamentation. Such a picture of woe was never seen in Hoboken

HORSELESS SLEIGH INVENTED.

Will Run on Snow and Ice and Even in
 the Water.
 Motors for horseless sleighs are among the latest novelties at the patent office. They are light, powerful affairs, and can be run by an amateur as easily as those attached to horseless carriages. The sleighs are designed, says the New York World, to run either on the snow or ice A pair of spurred wheels is arranged between the runners, and with little lever the driver can adjust them so that they will work on the soft snow just as smoothly as upon ice. One inventor has also provided against the danger of breaking through the ice. His sleigh is formed something like a boat, and is perfectly water tight. If the ice should break the sleigh would float, and the ice spurs would act as paddle wheels in bringing you to shore again.
 One patent is for sleigh that may be rowed across the ice. On the end of each oar is heavy weight with sharp steel point to cut into the ice. Another rowboat for the ice is rigged with slid ing seat and legs with sharp spurs, which catch into the ice and shove the boat forward each time the rower pulls. Considerable speed is obtained by this arrangement, although the rowing is not as easy as upon the water.

DOG OF THE IRON MASK. -

Although Only an Aristocratic Statue 1t
 Deceived the Street Mongrel.
 A relative who lives in one of the one time fashionable mansions now be- come students boarding houses, in the south end, tells me pretty good story of dog, says reporter for the Boston Post. In the yard, where a fountain was once known to play, but where now dust gathers, is an iron statue of dog. The iron dog watches and guards the old fountain, but he in. his turn has an admirer and adorer. The other day, hunting for another dog to go out and play tag with him, came a young street mongrel. He was unaccustomed to the ways of aristocracy, and in his simple ignorance supposed that anything that looked like dog was dog.
 Up to the statue he bounded barking and wagging his tail. In stately i'm mobility the iron dog gazed on out into vacancy. This did not deceive the other. He had seen plenty of dogs as- sume just that naughty and abstracted manner when they did not care to fight. Wishing to show his iron friend that he appreciated his attitude, but assuring him of no evil intention, the dog from the street kept on barking and wagging his tail. He even ran around his friend number of times to show that there was no ill-will-as is the manner of dogs. But the dog of the iron mask did not budge. My relative says that he is sure that even if the street dog had brought around cat to chase the iron dog would have remained unmoved. A red Irish setter came out finally and called the street dog away. The latter went with distinct traces of reluctance in his manner. He liked the style of that iron dog and had rather play in his yard with him.

ARRIVING AT CONCLUSIONS.
Unique Methods of Reasoning Which
 Some People Adopt.

Charles Daniels, member of con- gress from Buffalo. served 2s years on the New York supreme court bench before he was elected to congress. Re
 gently, in talking over old law cases with number of lawyers, says the Troy Times, he told a story which was a dazzling illustration of the unique methods pursued by some people to arrive at conclusions. The case in question was that of a man named Greenfield, living in Oswego county, who had been convicted in the lower court of the murder of his wife, The
 case was carried to the court of ap- peals, which reversed the finding of the lower court. A special hearing was ordered by the governor. This was held at Syracuse, and Judge Daniels was called upon to preside. In examin- ing the jurors, one man said that he was prejudiced in the matter. When asked if he had gleaned his prejudice from the papers or by talking with in terested parties or by hearsay, he re- piled to every question that he didn't know a thing about the case, but that he was nevertheless prejudiced. He was excused, but Judge Daniels was not satisfied, and he sent the sheriff and had the juror brought to him. He asked him where he had gained his prejudice. The fellow replied: q don't know anything about the case, but the lawyers made such idiots of themselves in examining the jurors that I knew the man must be guilty.''

Rushing out, they found the amateur burglar thrashing wildly about the grass, while brawny police man sat on his shoulders hammering his neck into the mud.

But, notwithstanding they are now in the city itself, there are few lots for sale yet at prices corresponding with the "Sound Money Doctrine" of President Cleveland and his cuckoos, which means that kind of a dollar which will buy two dollars worth of property These lots are near the new elec- tric car line which is now in operation. The lots are in the city and their occupants do not need to ride into town, but the presence of electric street cars is popular and adds market value to the property.
