horses against her and tumhled her

bear recovered herself. This interfer-

weapon the hunters had We're an old
nint-lock musket that a done duty in
the war of 1872, and a mail tomahak

bear climbed the stub Jesse tried to
shoot her. bu the flint in the gun

Italian cemeteries. From Sebastopol itself
we were rowed across the bay to the great
Russian cemetery. where 100, 900 soldiers are
said to be buried. At the top of the ele-
walton on which the cemetery lies is a
memorial chapel, the interior Of which is
one Of the most beautiful things in Russia.
The walls are almost completely lined with
mosaics in delicate light colors, represent
ing largely scenes from the Passion, and
solemn angels in white garments. The
other ornamentation is of silver or gold
on a white ground.
On the walls are tablets commemorative
of the Russian regiments which took part
and the soldiers who fell at the Crimean
war. Shady avenues radiate from the chapel
through the grounds, where, beside the mon
ument of the heroes of 1896 are those OF
numerous army and navy officers who have
died Of late years and great mounds, COW
cred with enormous granite slabs, beneath
each of which 200 soldiers are said to lie.
Certain restrictions and prohibitions have
lately been removed from the town of Sebas-
topol, considerable building ana renovation
has been engaged in and the place is assum-
ing a more prosperous aspect than it is said
to have worn for many a long year. Here,
too, we are close upon classical ground. Only
a few yersts southwark upon the coast is
the ancient Tauris. where Iphegenia was for
so long the priest of Artemis.

OLD CRIMEAN battlefield.
What the Traveller Finds to Interest
Vim round ScbastOpOI.

From Ialta we drove in two etapes along
the Crimean coast and across the country
to Sebastopol, or Sevastopol, as the Russians
pronounce ii. For the larger half of the way,
writes a correspondent of the Springfield
Republican, the first six hours from Ialta,
the scenery Is almost unsurpassed. For some
time you pass through luXuriant southern
vegetation, vineyards and groves of cy-
presses and cedars, past the royal park of
Aloupka and gentlemen's country seats
stretching to the waters edge; then, con-
tinulng to mount. you come into a wild.
rock region, with bold mountains towering
about you. Our faces were turned toward a
flame OF sunset, although the projecting
promontory hid the descending ball from
our sight and whenlthe sunset red had faded
a half moon rose above an obscuring bank
of cloud and lighted us on the last two hours
of our way. Almost at the highest point a
church, with many domes, doomed up before
us, and at the very top of the pass we cam
to the famous Porte Daibar, a great gateway
hewn out OF the solid rock. But beautiful as
our drive was. the journey is infinitely finer
made in the opposite direction, for then one
passes through all the duller scenery first,
mounts gradually through a wooded valley,
and issues from. the Porte Daibar upon a
scene of unsurpassed beauty. We passed the

food, such as iLiwas, but IL was like the old
story of a bed like a bullet for hardness,
with its one sheet that is never changed,

your own pillows and wrapped in your own
rugs. Then you must rouse yourself at 5
