eminent with cruelty towards the
Jews; yet the Millennium Carbon is
nevertheless proud Of its Jew, if not
during his lifetime, at least after his
death.
St. Petersburg was recently the scene
of an extraordinary occurrence. A
Jew named Orchansky died after fifty
four years service in the Guard of the
Emperor of Russia, a crack corps
which no Jew has been allowed to en-
ter since the reign of Alexander III.
An old trooper of the time of Nicholas
/, Orchansky was only permitted to
remain in the Imperial Guard in con-
sequence of the high protection he en-
joyed. Orchansky. who rose to the
rank of q non-commissioned officer,
had ar exemplary career in the army.
Not a single breach Of discipline a
recorded against him; and he exercised
considerable influence over his Chris
tian comrades. It is related that once
the Emperor Alexander III and the
Empress arrived without notice at the
barracks of the Guard, and by chance
there was no one to receive the sover-
eigns except the Jewish officer. who
assisted their Imperial Majesties to
alight from their sledge. As soon as
their presence became known there
was a rush Of officers to the spot, and
many excuses were offered. The En-
peror, turning to the Jew, exclaimed:
"At least hereis one man who has not
left his post" and as a reward Or
chansky was chosen to escort the au-
gust visitors back to the sledge. Or
chansky went through many cam
paigns and gained numerous stars and
medals. He vas generous to such an
extent that he died leaving his widow
almost penniless, but she will receive
a pension from the government. At
tempts were frequently made to in
duce him to abandon his faith; but, as
he was an extremely pious Jew, he re-
manned loyal to the ancestral religion,
and only transgressed o~bservances
when the exigencies of the service de-
manded the sacrifice.

THE X-RAY
Exposes a Fraudulent So-Called Per
petual- Motion Machine.

Through the use of an H-ray, another
so-called perpetual motion machiue has
been exposed IT was the invention of j.
M Aldrich now a convict in Auburn
prison who had succeeded in interesting
a number of capitalists in his contrivance.
They advanced the money to perfect the
machine which Aldrich spent without
apparent result. and he finally brought up
in Jail as fraud.
His machine fell into the hands of the
Scientific American. 1t was not cumber-
some affair, but small enough to fit into a
handbook After looking II over from the
outside the experts decided that it was
one of the cleverest frauds that ever
drew money from the pockets of the
guileless. 1t was apparently all that the
inventor claimed it to be. No concealed
devices could be found. The experts did
not care to destroy the machine, and
while studying out the best way to solve
the problem the X-ray scheme was sug-
gested.
The works were incased in wooden
box. This was put under the X-ray.
which revealed the silhouette of an ordi-
nary set of clockwork. The gears were
connected with the main shaft Of the
ing through one of the posts two bevel
wheels in the top of the post serving to
transmit the motion of the clockwork to
a revolving shaft and weights.
The works, which were inserted in a
followed out base of the machine, were
cleverly concealed. The whole thing was
put together with artistic clumsineSs.
The keyholes by which the clockwork was
reached were not of suspicious appear
ance, having been made to resemble
wormholes. York Evening World.

societies of the beneficiary character, such
as the Knights of Honor. He SAID that
a number of the clergy of almost every
denomination decried such orders and that
was because they had not given the mat
