noiseless bicycle, however, l sometimes
came upon these human will-o'-the-

was of enormous width. He was hurry

most curious look came over his face,
which l could not help remarking.
Whether it was the sight of my re-
volver, which 1 always wore outside on
my belt, or the. strange appearance of
the bicycle, 1 cannot tell, but he
glanced around him quickly for a mo-
ment as though meditating a bolt"
then, realizing, perhaps, that he could
not possibly get out of range of my re-
volver, he seemed to resign himself and
came slowly over toward me-
As he approached l saw that he was
fairly trembling in every limb with
fright, and his mouth was quivering.

of the most unfortunate of beings
unconsciously turns their thoughts to-
ward religion. In justification of their
crimes they invariably say, I'VE are
poor sinners, but also most unfortu-
nate, and therefore God will forgive us
all our sins Whenever they see a
cross they always take off their caps
and cross themselves. In conversation,
l am told, they are very fond of quot
ing what at first sight seem Script
ure texts, but what in reality are
phrases made up by themselves for
their own justification, such as God
hates the rich ones of this world -
Sin committed in perfect humility is
no sim IF you must kill a man.
don't kill his SOUL
Besides these religious sayings they
have a great many proverbs which
clearly indicate their lawless nature,
viz:
He is not a thief who steals, but
he who allows himself to be caught"
Dead men tell no tales
"A fool gives, a wise man takes
What you can get is yours; what
you cannot is other peoples
To describe more graphically this
class of men whose type is wholly I'M
known in Europe, l will relate the fol-
lowing fact: - .e-..-s.
In one Of the more Important Sibe-
RAN villages called Balachta lived two
settlers, sent there as punishment for
some small offense, one a Russian
called Intezgu, the other a Pole They
were both shoemakers and entered
into partnership to concentrate their
efforts in earning a small living. One
day they made an excursion from the
village, some 10 or 20 versts, with the
intention of cutting small pieces of
wood used by shoemakers in pegging
boots. Reaching few struggling
bushes they separated and each began
TO cut the small tWigS they required
AS ill-luck would have it, a party of l.
tramps just then passed. Perceiving
the Pole, alone, they surrounded him
in an instant. InteZgu, who was but
a few PAGES off, hid in the bushes and
witnessed what followed. He could not
help his friend, as he knew that if he
showed himself he would be killed at
once. Trembling with fear he was
compelled to remain an unwilling wit
ness of the tragedy.
Hail friend said the tramps, TAX
ing off their caps. Bad luck to you
that you have met us, but you see 1t
is not our fault. Such is the will of
God. How much money have you got?"
Five roubles, which 1 will give you
as well as my clothes, if you will only
spare my life
Your life is of no use to us, and we
would really like to let you 60 but
you see, dear friend, we have our laws,
which we cannot avoid. If you were
to escape alive you might report us to
the police, and we might be caught
Therefore forgive US poor sinners-but
die you must"
II swear 1 will not report you"

Origin of Newspaper Extras.

Harpers Round Table: Doubtless
few know that the New York Journal
of Commerce originated what is popu-
larly known as a newspaper extra.
When this occurred times were trouble
some in Europe, and the great revolu-
ton of 1880 was approaching. Natur-
ally America was anxious for early
news, and all the newspapers of New
York equipped small boats that cruised
about the harbor. way-laying the large
packet vessels arriving from abroad to
get the tidings.
The Journal of Commerce conceived
the plan of sending out a small
schooner to intercept the packets two
or three days ahead of their arrival
The originators of the plan were
laughed at, and told that it would in
the end rum them. Results proved
otherwise, however, and when the
semaphoric telegraph announced their
schooner in the offing. and later COM
ing up the bay, the crowd would gather
around the office of the paper. They
had to wait until the extra evening
edition was ready and then one of the
partners would sometimes read the
news aloud to hundreds of citizens.
while thousands of copies were sold.
This schooner was the first American
news-boat of any size

ment posthouse without pordarozhna
I was well aware. This fact, however,
did not seem TO occur to the DostmaS-
ter, who shrunk away without a word
of remonStrance to get the refresh
ments. In the meantime, being unob-
served in the darkened apartment ad-
joining, I lay perfectly quiet in order
to study more closely this unceremon-
ious visitor and his movements.
He had not reasSuring counten-
ance. One thing especially aroused my
suspicion: he had not removed his cap
on entering the room and apparently
had no intention of doing so. 1t is an
unwritten law in Russia that on en-
tering an apartment the head shall be
uncovered, more out of respect for the
sacred Ikon, which always hangs in
one corner of the room, than out of
any pOliteneSS to the occupants. l had
never yet seen the rule departed from
and felt sure that the man had some
hidden motive for remaining covered.
His dress was unique, if not becoming;
4 pair of gray tweed trousers, sui-
mounted by a Siberian peasants car
tan, secured by a broad red sash
around the waist, and pair of rough
-Op-bOOtS. Save for a thick wooden
,udgel, which lay on the table beside
him, the stranger was apparently I'M
armed Who could the man be? And
from this wild, stormy night, or rather
morning? For l noticed with satisfac-
ton that the day was beginning TO
lawn.
One circumstance which occurred
later put an end to my cOnjectures and
convinced me that my first suspicious
we're well grounded. Having made a
hearty meal of tea, black bread and
milk. he pushed his chair back and
resting both feet on the stove, lit a
cigarette. While so doing his cap ac-
cidentally slipped off and l distinctly
saw that one-half of his head was
shaved the distinguishing mark of the
Siberian convict. That he was a kat
oTgi there was now no doubt. He left
the posthouse very quietly without
paving for his food, nor did the post
master make any further remarks re-
garding his strange visitor. 1t might
have got him into trouble with the ap-
thorities if he had.
MOSTLY FUGITIvES FROM JUS
Tee.
What kind of people these trampS are
can easily be imagined when it is known
that the very worst criminals are eX-
lied TO the mines and men who are
sent to settle in Siberia never have re-
course to fight. These fugitives from
penal servitude, after having passed
Irkutsk, follow the chief post
road, which is the only line of COM
munication between eastern Siberia
and European Russia. To forsake it
would be impossible as on either side
there is nothing whatever but unin-
habited wastes. The Bradiaga must.

good deal of practice, and you won't
feel anything,
And now let me pray"
He knelt down and entrusted his soul
to the most high When he had fin
ished he looked at his murderers,
standing silently around him.
Are you ready?" asked the chief.
Ready, he answered in low voice
1t was his last word; a few blows
with a strong stick on the temple
stretched him senseless on the ground
The tramps then stripped the corpse
tied stone TO the neck and threw it
into the river.
"A pity" said the chief, walking
slowly away and lighting his short
pipe, that some other man did not
meet us instead of this one. 1 am very
sorry for him.
True" answered another; 'he
seemed good sort of fellow
so quiet, and not at all quarrel
some," added third
In that he showed his good sense
finished the chief.
And after having thus sung the
praises of their victim they lost them
selves in the woods.

to open the door and showed signs of
such uneasiness, that then for the first
time flashed across me the words of my
Krassnoyarsk host: Keep a good look
out about Touloung. They are worse
there than anywhere"
A second knock, louder than the first,
cut short my reflections and induced
me to make signs to the postmaster
that my revolver was loaded. Appar-
emily treasured, he then went to the
door, unbolted it and let in the myster-
