Many of our readers will no doubt be
grieved to learn that the health of His
Holiness Leo XIII. is so precarious
that his end is but question of short
time. He has selected the place for his
tomb in the church of San Giovanni in

1t is confidently asserted that his sue

HARUN AL RASCHID.

The chief of police in a city in Rus
STA was one day in the Easter season
seized with the idea that it would be a
good plan to find out at first hand how
his subordinates tended to business.
With this end in view he dressed him
self in old and ragged garments; put
on false hair and whiskers and other
wise disguised himself and went out
into the city. Under his arm he car
ried a samovar (teapot.)
He had not gone far, when he was
met by grodovoi (cop.)
HALT" commanded he, 'WhO are
yon, and where did you get the samo-
var? There is a blne box over here on
the corner. Come over, and I'll pull
the wagon on YER
And he pulled his club and grabbed
the disguised chief by the collar and
gave him yank which nearly dislo-
Gated the false whiskers. The chief
begged and told very pretty story
about the samOvar, but he was incOn-
tinently marched along to the box
while the officer whose name was
Mique, remarked "g'long now, or DILL
bat yez over the nut" But just as they
reached the box, a shining ruble
found its way into Miques hand. His
tone immediately changed, and he re-
marked as he loosened his hold
''B'hivin Oh guess yer all roight.
Run along wild yez now. But ye'd
bether put that samovar onder yer
coat. It's too domd conspicuous"
The chief had not gone far before he
was stopped by another grodovoi. But
he had now become wise, so he at once
offered him ruble. But there's where
he made mistake, for this honorable
man cried out in horror: Entrystet.
Do you tink l vos Won sheap skate
allretty? Fork ems over zwei Won
dose of you want to GO, aind it."
The chief passed by number of
grodovois in this manner and had al
ready spent ten rubles, when on cor
ner he was stopped by another one, who
would not take bribe. He was of
fered two, three and finally five rubles,
but insisted on dragging the chief to
the nearby station, where the captain
of police was asleep. The grodovoi
| awOke him and reported
"Your honor, 1 have arrested this
SuSpiciOuS DerSOn with the SamOvar nm
der his ARM The captain was cross
on account of being awakened, and
remarked
"D-n you and your suspicious
persons. Put him in the lookup. I'll
examine him to tomorrow"
"Listen first to what 1 have to say
said the chief. "You have no right to
arrest an honorable man without any
cause"
$50 you are sassy, you- thief.
Here, boys, chuck him in the hole.'
Two other grodovis rushed up to
"do" the bold lawbreaker, when he
pulled off his wig and false whiskers,
and the Mortified captain recognized
his chief.
The captain was roasted" the bribed
grodovis dismissed from the "force"
and the honest one promoted to be
bailiff in the municipal court, pre-
cisely as in the Arabian stories of "a
Thousand and One Nights"

Barbarity Unsurpassed.

BosToN, July THE Plant Liner
Halifax arrived this morning bringing
1862 survivors from the terrible La
Bourgogne disaster in which this ship
was sunk by collision with the Crom-
artyshire off the Sable Islands near
Halifax on Monday.
The passengers list carefully revIs-
ed shows that there were ia souls on
board out of which number $50 were
lost and 1854 saved.
Of those saved l2-Wefe second class,
Al steerage passengers and the rest the
crew
Each survivor has been provided
with ticket to New York.
An Associated Press correspondent
accompanied the survivors from Hall
fax and interviewed many who told OF
thrilling experiences and terrifying
stories of brutality and murder that is
uncqualed in the history of civilization
The Marine shipping agents and the
survivors all agree that La Bourgogne
struck the Cromarty shire glancing from
her bow.
The shock was not felt by many OF the
PASSENGERS and some of them never
uwokc.
The bow entered the side of the
steamer at the bridge and the water
rushed in at every portion of thc..shlp.
Fred Nyfellcr, a Swiss. says that he
was in boat filled with men and
women. Only one end was united iron
the ship so when the steamer sank the
small boat went with her, and he wa
the only one saved.
He says the Captain walked up ah'
down the bridge screaming and swear
> inc, and he completely lost his head
Nvfeller scrambled up onto raft an
says he saw an American who was Try
" ing to get on the raft, beaten over tn
head.
Three survivors say that the Fourt
~ Engineer acted the most brutality an
cried "Damn the passengers, let the1
:, save themselves, if had revolver
" would shoot them"
