FALsIFlED HER AGE.
A Court Trial That Disclosed Que
Phase of Russian Society.

Court Trial That Disclosed Queer
Phase of Russian Society.
Even in Russia, it seems, despotism
does not go the length of forcing a
woman to tell her age or Of Furnishing
her for stating it inaccurately A GER
tain Princess Eugalytcheff was recently
tried at Moscow and sentenced to life
long internment in the province of Olo-
metz for embezzling 140, 900 rubles
After the proceeding in court had come
to an end and after the noble lady had
retired to the country for her somewhat
prolonged rest from urban gayeties and
temptations too careful official discov-
cred that among the papers in the case
was the princess certificate Of baptism,
and that she had changed the date of it
from 1847 to 1857 Instantly this grave
crime was brought to the notice of the
authorities, and the convicted embezzler
was summoned to meet the charge of
classifying an official document. Then a
curious fact was disclosed, and a sur
prising amount of light was thrown on
Russian society.
The Prince Eugalytcheff, who was
cited as witness by the prosecutor,
said that whether his bride was 20 years
older or younger than her certified age
was matter of absolute Indifference to
him. All he could say was that he re-
ceived the sum of 5000 rubles for Civ
ing the lady his name, that immediate
ly after the marriage ceremony he pro-
cured for her separate passport, and
that since then he has known nothing
more of his wife or her private affairs.
The jury gallantly declined to convict
the accused princess on the trivial
charge about woman s age, y and she
was sent back to her provincial exile
Princes evidently come cheap in
Russia, and this is perhaps the most in
texesting bit of news in the whole story.

VOLUNTEERS OF HAVANA.
How They We're Won with a Pocket
Handkerchief Promise.

How They We're Won with a Pocket
Handkerchief Promise.
In 1868, when the revolution of ten
years in Cuba began. no volunteers ex-
listed in Havana worthy of being called
such. There was only one old regiment,
and when Governor General Lersundi,
then of the island, tried to complete
this regiment he found the task diff
cult of accomplishment on account of
the prevailing unwillingness to enlist.
But just at this time, most providential-
ly for the relief of the dilemma, some
unknown hand covered the walls of
Matanzas, near Havana, with huge
posters promising each Spaniard his
passage home and the privilege Of car
rying away with him whatever his
pocket handkerchief could contain in
the event of his enlistment
The effect of this stimulus to the flag
ging pulse of the public was electrical,
and the enrolment of 90, 900 men fol-
lowed within 48 hours The volunteers
thus came into existence with their
chiefs i'll the majority. But the ruined
merchants of the city of Havana soon
found out and objected to the newly
risen power. This opposition increased
upon the arrival in Cuba of the new
governor general Duice, who came in
1869 as representative of the revolution
airy government in Spain. He was a
man of good faith, empowered by the
government to grant Cuba all the re-
form she coveted and that had lately
been offered. He would undoubtedly
have put term to the revolution, avert
ing all the ruin and devastation which
followed. But such an easy and mag
unanimous course did not suit that class
which faced inevitable financial ruin as
a consequence of such policy.-San
Francisco Chronicle.

Two Detroit merchants were sitting
on adjacent stools and taking 5 cent
lunch, when one asked the other if he
consulted his wife i'll his business affairs.
Cant do it, was the response.
"I've tried it dozen times month for
years, but it always winds up just
about as it did yesterday asked her
if she thought she could discuss little
matter of business calmly and dispas-
sionately. She said she could, but had
never known me to be able to do so. l
complimented her sarcastically on her
angelic temper, and she at once ao-
cused me of being angry l told her
that | was regarded among men as hay
ing a very equable disposition and that
my employees called me Old Suavity.
She called attention to the fact that
her pet dog, that weighs about pound,
was called Danger. Then l told her
straight from the shoulder that l de-
clined to be made angry by her taunts
and odious comparisons but served
pointed notice that was going to have
the respect due the head of the house.
She laughed cheerily and declared that
I was entirely too touchy."
"But what about the business confer
ence?'
"Oh, / slammed the door and left.

Cost of Elenhants.

1t is somewhat interesting to compare
the weights carried by elephants in the
tin producing districts of the Malay
peninsula with those used in the long
journeys and mountainous country of
the Lao states. In the peninsula the
distances are seldom more than at most
three or four days march, and the ele-
plant is expected to carry as much as
900 or /, 900 pounds, besides his mahout
and howdah. The latter is often mere
brace of panniers slung together SO as
to rest one ON each side of the backbone
and covered sometimes with light
barrel roof of bark. A good tusker car
rying az hundredweight will fetch
about $50, and female which can bear
eight hundredweight is worth about
$40
In the Lao states, where journeys OF
ten days or three weeks are frequent,
the average weight hardly exceeds 800
pounds, or one third of what is usual in
the peninsula. The prices in various
parts of the country vary considerably.
When we were on the Me Having and
in Muang Nan in 1898, good tusker
could be had for 932 and a female for
e24. At Chieng Mai, where good teak
hauling elephants are in great demand,
tusker may fetch ESQ and female
anything from $50 to 500, according
to her strength and ability. -Geograph-

WE ARE SEVEN.
"a modern complication. ]

A modern complication.1
I met little girl one day,
She was eight years old she said;
hat that was made in wonderful way
Rose high above her head
She had fin de steele air,
And she was richly clad.
Her eyes were black, her face was fair,
Her beauty made me glad.
"Sisters and brothers, little maid,
How many may you be2''
SLOW many2 Seven in ALL she said,
And, wondering, looked at me.
Sand where are they pray you, tell"
She answered: 'Seven are we,
And two Of us with mother dwell,
And two with pa and me.
"And two came into the family
Along with my second mother;
boy and girl, SO they, you see,
Are my sister and my brother"
"You say that two with your mother dwell
And two with your pa and you.
So far it's all as clear as bell,
But what of the other two?"
Then did the little maid replyt
"Seven boys and girls are we;
Four and two are six, and
Make the seventh Don't you seer"
you've got 1t wrong, my little maid,
AS sure as you're alive.
Subtract your new stepmother's two
And We are only fve."
"My ma and pa live far apart.
Each married to another.
My ma has two to cheer her heart,
My sister and my brother
my father took my sister Jane,
My brother John and me.
If you can count, it must be plain
Enough that he has three.
Three and two are five, you know,
And then those other two
Make seven in all. Now must go,
Since I've made it plain to you.
Those two your stepma brought will not
Have seats with you in heaven"
Twas throwing words away, for she
With plying looks regarded me
And answered. 1--WE are. seveni"

The WORRYING Habit.

A prime necessity Of our permanent
freedom from worrying is the possession
of the personal quality commonly known
as sand. If a man has not been endowed
with sand by nature, he must pick it up
for himself Nobody is going to give
him any, but he can do this easier than
he thinks
Most of the things we worry over are
only bugbears that fade and disappear
upon the first attack Herein lies the
first secret of success-in attack-and
the great secret lies in persistence, in
keeping always at work. The man who
actually does this, wasting no time, will
find the first thing he knows that he's
stopped worrying, and he laughs lit
tie as he says to himself that he's got
no time to worry, and the next thing he
knows he finds his sandbox is no longer
empty, he's actually got some sand of
his own, and then he is somebody and
begins to find some solid satisfaction in
life. New York Sun.

DIsGUsTED FISHERMEN.

IT Made Them III to See Old Time
Angler Catch Trout.
One day Boston party, on fishing
trip to Moosehead, came across one of
the old school fishermen. He was up off
the mouth of Tomhegan stream and
was fishing out of lumberman's bat
teau. 1t developed later that he was the
cook for crew of river drivers. On the
bank near at hand stood the cookee, or
his helper The cook had thrown about
peck of table refuse into the lake in
order to "tole" the fish, and over that
lure he was having great luck. His pole
was of the jib boom variety. and when
a fish bit he would derrick it over his
head into the bushes where the cookee
was stationed.
The Boston men from their canoes
watched operations with all the disgust
of the true sportsmen.
"Got enough for supper yet?'' shout
ed the fisherman over his shoulder as
he set another great trout fiamping into
the bushes
No; better catch six or eight more, F"
shrilled back the cookee
Say, how many fish do you two fell
lows usually eat for support" shouted a
Boston man who didn't understand the
situation.
when you've cooked for 20 river
drivers as long as have, )" yelled the
cook, derricking another fish, you'll
know more about empty nail kegs. =
Hardly was this enigmatic utterance
out when there came tug at his line
that was nothing short of tremendous.
He twitched The fish didn't come. He
braoed, set his jaws and pried His line
only sawed the kissing water.
"Play himl Play him' screamed
the excited sportsmen from the city.
"Play your grandmother beloved

here to fish. y And as he spoke he boost

African sklns.

Between 1850 and 1875 it is certain
that some millions of blesbok, wilde
beest and springbok must have been de-
stroyed in the Transvaal and Orange
Free State. The slaughter was SO prodi-
gious and the variety of wild animals
so great in these wild regions of South
Africa that the result made sensible
difference in the leather industry of Eu-
rope. The markets were filled with
skins which, when tanned, gave leather
of quality and excellence never known
before, but the origin of which, as the
material was still sold under old names.
purchasers never suspected. Hides of
the zebra and quagga arrived in tens Of
thousands, and good as horsehide is for
the uppers of first class boots, these
were even better. Smart Englishmen
for years wore boots the uppers Of
which were made of zebra and quagga
skin or from the hides of Glands, onyx
and gensbok disguised under the names
of calf" or patent feathers. London
