SIBERIA WAY BE AsANUoNED
Escape Made Easy ny the New
Railway.

A late London dispatch says:
The building of the Transsiberian
Railway is causing the complete
reorganization of the Russian con-
vict system. The present rules
are that exiled offenders shall be
sent to nearer or farther parts in
Siberia according to the article of
the code under which they were
convicted. The appointed place
of exile for lighter offenses is near
er European Russia than for
serious crimes. 1t is not very diff
cult even now for offenders who
are courageous enough and pro-
vided with means of support to
make their way secretly back to
Europe or abroad. Needful pass
ports and disgnises are usually
procurable.
The real Utility uf the Siberian
convict system has to deUend up
on the physical difficulties of
tr'velng vast distances back to
civilization. The new railway
eliminates these obstacles.

A story is told about the cap
tain of one of the Natal liners
[Cape of Good Hope]. One Sun
day recently it occurred to him
that it would be well to have a
service for the sailors on board
his ship, and, as he was not very
used to that sort of thing, he con-
suited the purser, and got several
valuable hints from that worthy.
The service was duly announced; !;
but at the time appointed only
one sailor turned up. The captain
thought that this was not quite
good enough, so he dismissed the
congregation, with instructions
that he could have a glass of grog.
The congregation had his grog,
and was jubilant. The following
Sunday another service was an
nounced, and at this all the sailors
turned up. They had what seem
ed to them an interminable SER
vice, and were then dismissed.
But they hovered about, and pre-
sently asked politely where the
grog was. "Oh," said the captain,
I'VE don't have grog every Sun
day; you see, last Sunday was
Epiphany Sunday. - Cleveland
