America Still Ahead.

Russia is very large country. and
with Siberia's immense area included,
the size of the United States suffers in
comparison with her. One of her news
papers has Wanted the proposed
transporting of a whole town some
40 odd miles along frozen river Ga here
tofore unknown feat, as it claims), the
object of the removal being to place the
town among some hills that lend them
selves admirably to the purpose of forth
fication, thus securing valuable mill
tary station. 1t will undoubtedly be
quite feat to accomplish such n task,
and if the Russian engineers find any
hitch in their plans. they can surmount
the difficulties by reference to SINH
lar undertaking successfully accom-
plished in the state of Illinois, namely,
the moving of the town of Nauvoo over
a frozen river. In the course OF three
winters this was done, and 700 houses
were transported. and new town, now
prosperous place, was established.
The Russian newspapers can boast OF
the great work Of moving one of their
towns; but IL is n pleasure to know that
the United States long ago anticipated
them in such matters.-Harper's Round
Table.

HOW swIhpLERs GET NAMES.
Stealing Newspaper Subscription Lists and
Exchanging with Other Rogues.

Persons who get circulars from
swindlers OFTEN wonder how their names
are obtained by the latter. The ways
ore various. Subscription lists of the
city wecklies are bought or stolen, and
nearly every swindler exchanges his
letters or the addresses of those who
have answered his advertisements with
other swindlers in similar lines of bust
ness. Hence, the recognized fact that
after person has once been caught he
is much more likely to be swindled
again. Nearly all the dealers in objec-
tionable books, those who advertise
"your future husband orwife, ""fortunes
told" and retired clergynen" sell their
letters for one cent each or more to the
bogus money operators. So It will be
seen that some lines of swindling have
their branches paying a large percent
age on the money invested.
\ firm Of "sawdust" spectators at
one time bought 10000 letters received
by a concern that had realized $4,000
out of n certain bogus sewing machine.
This machine wns made of cast iron
and turned by small hand wheel. II
would sew two pieces of the finest ma
terial together. but anything coarser
would demolish THE whole machine and
render it useless. The same enteTpris-
ing firm bought about 10000 letters
from a woman in Brooklyn who adver-
tised to supply every young man and
woman with the date of their marriage
and description of their future partners
for life. This woman received in near
" every one of these 10000 letters Il
50-cent stamp, and no evidence was
given that she had ever sent n single
reply. Indeed, so great was the hnr-
vest that some so or 60 of the letters
had not been opened by her, and still
contained the 50-cent stamps. They
also bought up letters addressed to
Quack doctors, dealers in objectionable
pictures; also letters from lottery keep
ers. fortune dealers, etc.
Another firm on Wall street advertised
two steel engravings of distinguished
persons mailed free ON receipt of one
dollar. They received some 10000 re-
plies, with dollars inclosed, and sent
in return two ten-cent stamps of the
period. Some advertisers offer "dia-
mond rings" Catalogues" recipes"
Songs" etc, simply to get addresses,
and after getting all they can out of the
parties replying they find it profitable
business to sell the letters to others

FOR YOUNG PEOPLE.
A VOYAGE OF DISCOVERY.

Oh. l have had a splendid play.
The incest times that ever were!
I've made believe, the whole long day.
i was a great discoverer.
You see, l skated all around
The pond. and down the ;ce-brook, too.
And oh. such pretty things l found!
Ill tell them all to you.
First, discovered near the shore
A little frozen waterfall.
Poor thing! II used to splash and pour,
But now II cannot stir at all.
And next l found an Island wee;
l felt just like Columbus then!
The only native could sec
Was one brown winter wren.
And then n tiny cave found,
Where all along the rocky wall
The iclcles we've hung around,
Like spears in some old robbers hall.
And then spied fairy bower,
All made OF grasses, dry and white.
Each frosted like silver flower,
Or diamonds sparkling bright.
I'ut soon as in the hemlock- boughs
The evening star began to show,
Then discovered our own house
AS fast as ever could go.
For when the sun has gone behind
The winter woods, and night has come,
The incest place that / can md
Is just my own dear home.

care should sit behind him as he rides.
Herrick had only the most shadowy
thought for the person who had lost
this money. He did not even speculate
upon the manner of its loss. 1t had
passed into the control of one who need
ed it, and that was enough.
He disposed the notes in his pockets,
in the best interests of comfort and
safety. Then he folded up the brown
paper and pocketed that also, with a
dim consciousness that, If it were left
in the cab, it might get the driver into
trouble. The fellow was honest, no
doubt, and Herrick did not wish that
he should suffer wrong. He preferred
to keep the wrapper himself, and take
means of disposing of it that would be
safer than throwing it out of the cab
window.
How to leave the cab was question
which concerned him nearly. He did
not wish to confront the driver again,
for there might be an investigation, and
question of Identification might arise,
in which case it would be well to have
the man know as little as possible of
Herrick's personal appearance. He re-
fiected with satisfaction that the spot
on Wall street where he had entered
the carriage had been rather dark.
The cab stopped suddenly. Its path
being blocked by tangle Of vehicles.
Herrick softly put his hand upon the
catch of the door. 1t yielded noiseless-
ly; the door swung open.
Herrick stepped out. Turning back
for an instant he perceived the cabman
sitting upon his box in entire uncon-
seriousness of the fraud that was being
practiced upon him. He was poor
man, and doubtless worked hard for
oil the money that he received. Still,

II was reckless to attract his attention
again, especially so, after having left
the cab in that strange manner.
There was way to the sidewalk
through the press Of vehicles. Herrick
saw 1t from the corner of his eye. and
was about to take advantage of it. In
stead, to his surprise. he found himself
turning toward the cabman, and i'm
mediately he heard his own voice say
ing: Z
II have decided to get out here. How
much do owe you?" ",
The cabman named his price, and
Herrick paid him with the five-dollar
bill which had been the sum of his
wealth, and the end of 1t SO far as he
could see, so short a time before. He
counted his change carefully, remem-
bering that he would probably have to
wait until the next day before he could
break one of the thousands. Enough
remained to him from the bill for a
supper, bed and breakfast.

The train was just stopping at Rec
tor street. That was the station near
est the steamship Office. Thrusting the
brown paper back into his pocket, he
left the car and went with the throng
down to the street. He was thinking
about the accommodations he would
choose on the steamer. He continued
to think of that and kindred subjects,
yet he turned north on Broadway in
stead Of south. Presently he found
himself asking an elevator boy in big
building IL he knew where Mr.. tira-
hams Office was.
Mr.. Graham happened to be in his
outer Office when Herrick entered. lie
was pouring a story into the ear Of
another gray-haired Wall street man,
and Herrick heard n few words of it
something about cabs, and cash and
carelessness.

of the sort. You cannot give me what
GU do not possess. am in search of

Howl" exclaimed the king. "Am
not happy on so elevated throne?"
"Yes, you are, if the happiness of a
man consists in the height of his seat"
Then Alboin referred to his kingly
power and dignity, and the dwarf re-
torted with another hooking laugh; and
W hen the king called attention to the
Eobles and courtiers about him, Ber-
tholde with sneer remarked "Oh, yes,
they cluster round your throne; so do
hungry nnts round n crab-apple, and
with the same purpose-to devour it."
We'll said," spake the king, .keeping
his temper; "but all this does not pre-
vent me from shining among them, as
the sun among the stars"
True, but tell me, shining Sun, how
many eclipses you are obliged to suffer
in a year? Foi the continual fattering
Of these men must now and then darken
your understanding"
For this reason you would not be a
tourtier?" inquired his majesty, whose
fingers began to play upon his sword in
T. threatening manner.
Miserable as am, should be sorry
to be placed in the rank Of slaves" re-
piled the dwarf. Besides, have not
the necessary qualities to succeed in
this fine employment"
what then do you seek at my court? ?"
asked the king in an angry tone.
Something / have not been able to
find there" answered Bertholde. II
was told that n king was as much above
common men as a tower is above COM
mon houses; find, as suspected, that
sovereigns are honored more than
they deserve"
This was little too much. The
king lost his patience. and commanded
the dwarf jester to lie; : the palace inn
mediately or he would have him
whipped out OF court.
