COST OF SABLES.

How the Price Advances After the
Skin Leaves Siberia.
1t is to be wondered whether The
elegant lady wrapped so snugly in her
winter furs gives a thought, even a
passing one, to the subject as to where
the magnificent sable skin which she
| wears around her neck originally came
| from.
Up in the great watershed dividing
| Siberia and Mongolia lives Il peculiar
race of people, half Chinese, half Thi-
betans. Few Europeans have ever seen
| them: in fact, with the exception Of
one or two enterprising explorers or
geographical enthusiasts who have
crossed the Altai range, European eyes
have never gazed mpon the aboriginal
Syots of northern Mongolia.
Sable hunting in the Siberian noun
tains of northern Mongolia is con-
fined almost exclusively to the Syots
and other native races, and it would
surprise a good many fur dealers in
England to know the prices which are
paid by the Siberian traders to these
poor aborigines for the skins they col
lect.
The Siberian trader, knowing his
market, makes periodical journeys into
Mongolia. 1t is safe to say he does not
take a kopek of money with him, but
he drags behind him well-stuifed
caravan loaded with tea. tobacco. gun
powder and shot, strings of beads for
the women and roughly made mecca
sins for the men. In due course he will
come across a Syot enoampment.
The trader sits on his wagon and
barriers cheerfully. With the eye Of a
connoisseur and with fingers rendered
deft by long practice, he sees and feels
the smooth, warm skin of the little an
imal.
The small black one-well, two
ounce packet of tobacco is enough for
that. That large black one--a handfal
of shot and an equal quantity of gun
powder. a packet of tea for lovely
skin with a long black stripe down the
center. This one, fine skin, but q
little bit hurt by the shot entering the
blackwell, only a string of beans for |
that.
In their original undressed state it is
safe to say that the skins do not COS, |
the Siberian trader more than a few |
pence each on the average. As the poor
sable travels further westward, how |
ever, he gets dearer and dearer, II |
Tomsk one can get very good sables |
for something like five or six rubles-
about 10 shillings In Omsk few are |
sold under ten rubles-e1 1 shilling. |
In Moscow 100 per cent. goes on. In |
St. Petersburg no one except the mid
die class or a functionary would wear
a sable under Is. In Paris and Lon
don real Siberian sable skin will fetch |
up TO e2O but the imitation
sables Of the present day have done
much to depreciate this wonderful

SPANIARDS INCENSED All THIS
COUNTRY FOR SENDING
AID TO CUBA.

Madrid, Jan. ia dispatch to the
Impartial from Havana, says the send
ing of supplies from the United States
to aid the indignant population CT Cuba
has aroused deep luminosity among the
Spaniards, who, it is stated, are incens-
ed at the pretext thus given to the
American consul and the Yankee ele-
ment to interfere III Cuban affairs.
1t is alleged that. the funds will be
used to widen the breach between the
Cuban peasantry and the Spaniards.
1t is also asserted that the American
newspapers have been instructed to
exaggeIate the sutforngs of the peas
antry in order 10 again arouse public
feeling in the United States so as to
present Washington with an excuse to
intervene.

THEY ARE DRIFTING APART.

The Paris (Ky.) Reporter says ga
young society man of our neighboring

largely in excess of his pecuniary
means. has been in the habit of send
ing be quet occasionally to the girl Of
his choice. In order to remedy tn
the defect occasionCd by his lack of
ready funds, and 10 save the money
required fer tie purchase Of expensive
flowers, he made an arrangement with
an INDECENT gardener in his locality
whereby the latter was to furnish him
q bouquet from time to time in ex-
change for scme of his cast off cloth
ing.
1T thus happened one day that lie
received bunch of beautiful flowers,
winch he at once sci off to his lady
love. In sure anticipation of friend
ly welcome he called at the home of
the lady the following evening, md
was not little surprised at the frosty
rec ptlcn he met With.
"YOu sent me note yestsi day, the
young wom.n remarked, in the most
frig;d of tone.

establishment.
"Certa My; along with the bouquet.
Cd Ger taiuly sent the flowers, but L
kcow nothing of the noto.'
"'But sir, there was a note inside

With these words she Landed the
dumbfounded swain scrap Of paper,
on which were written this mes age;
"'Don't forget them old pants you
promised me the other day."
