RUSSIA'S GREAT NAVAL DEPOT

Purpose,

Russia has expended. and is still
expanding, vast amount of money
in making Nladvostock n suitable ter

The wharves, railway station and
landing facilities have been MADE SUI
that part OF the world. Stone and
brick have replaced everywhere the
old wooden buildings OF the city. The
view OF the place from the sea is very
striking. The massive Russo-Chinese
bank is built OF white stone and light
ed by electricity. The solid brick bar
racks, the Greek cathedral and the
Office building OF the Russo-Chineae
Eastern railway attract attention
from a distance.

THE ORIGINAL SPEECH.
II Was a Language of Words Conn
posed Entirely of VOyeIs Re-
peated or Varied

The original speech, the true prime
val tongue of man was quite unlike any
language we have ever heard; yet we
have all talked it, and it's ele-
ments are present in the tongues of to-
day. The primeval language, says he
Contemporary Review, was a vowel
language altogether; it had no con-
sonants or contacts Gas we ought to
call them) at all. It's words consisted
Of vowel sounds following each other,
repeated or varied--or words like
acaea, aoao, ala, auau, aeoia, iaua,
oioi, ouou, uaua, ueue, all of which
may say in passing are taken from a
language in use to-day. The sentences
were intermittent streams of vowels,
each stream held on SO long as the
speakers breath allowed or within die
tated. When all literature was recited,
the same consideration, the capacity
of the lungs, determinated the length
of the bardic line, so we have our
shlokas, our hexameters, our Alexan-
drines, and so forth, each lungful of
verse; in the primeval tongue it was
likewise, but the sentences we're vowels
only.
There are about ten or dozen pure
vowels to go upon, and vowel words
may run up to five syllables, so we have
a very considerable fund to draw on for
vowel streams. And these streams of
vowel speech corresponded to and ex-
pressed streams of emotion or feeling
rather than descriptions of concrete
objects. For we hardly realize how
terribly overladen with material trifles
our life is to-day, and therefore what
great demands we make on Language
for concrete words. But our exclama-
tions, each of which indicates single
emotion, tend to remain pure vowel
sounds even at the present day.

JEALOUSY AMONG MONKEYS.
An Instance which illustrates the
Strength of That Trnitin
the Animals.

When a monkey gives way to jeal-
ousy it shows degree of hatred for
the animal that has innocently
aroused its malice that makes it, for
the time, a monster of cruelty. On i
ship returning from one of her tours
in tropical lands was monkey which
became a great friend of the stew
ardess.
One day she fed another monkey
a pretty, gentle creature. This trifing
attention enraged the other monkey,
which coaXed the little thing to it's
side. and then, before the stewardess
had time to realize that mischief was
meant, took it by the neck and flung
it overheard
Of another monkey, says the De-
troit Free Press, the same person tells
that, while preparing dinner for a
grand party, the cook was absent
from the kitchen for a minute, no
sooner had her back been turned than
the monkey slipped kitten of which
it had always been jealous into the
soup pot. The poor kittens fate was
only discovered at dinner time, when
the guests sent back their soup I'M
tasted because it was found to be full
of short hairs. In both cases there
is no doubt the monkey was cruel by
malice aforethought.

THEY HAVE NEVER STRUCK.
Delicate Patching That the Te1e-
graph Cable POINTERS Are Called
Upon to Do.

"There is one class of workers '. 10 We
never gone on strike to my knowled ge,"
said a New York shipowner, reports
the Sun, ''and that is the cable jointers.
These men are clever specialists who
work for Geographic engineers and
contract in the memorandum of agree
ment to go anywhere. They are en-
ployed on the ships of the ocean tele-
graph companies and their duty is to
make spices and joints in the cables
which are dragged up from the sea for
repairs. To those who are not initiated
this would seem to be fairly easy work
but it really requires great skill and
takes years to learn. Few are aware
how liable to damage under-sea cables
are. In the case of some of the old lines
there is scarcely mile of the cable
that has not one or more joints in it,"
Expert engineers can determine, in
length of thousands of miles, to with
in few feet where break in cable
is, the telegraph ship proceeds to the
spot which is indicated by buoy, the
damaged length of cable is dragged up
and the jointers proceed to cut out the
fault and deity splice the cable. The
slightest mistake, tiny air bubble, in
the reheated India rubber would spoil
the insulation. That would mean that
the cable would fail to transmit mes
sages at an important moment and
that ship with all its high-priced
scientific staff would have to steam
hundreds or perhaps thousands of
miles to pick up the cable again.
THUS it will be seen that the 'jointer'
is workman of great responsibilities
and that his field cannot be confined to
any part of the world"

TOUGHEST INDIANS ON EARTH.
A Tribe That Looks Upon Work of tn .
Lightest Kind with the Ut
most Horror.

"The Muskwah Indians are the
toughest specimens of the aborigines
we have left on this earth" said Albert
Lee, of the Iowa Central railroad.
Iowa is indebted to the Indian ter
ritory for this addition to her popula-
ton, and we are wondering how we
will ever get even. Unlike other tribes
of Indians, they do not yield to the in
fuence of civilization, and ii is only by
main strength that they are kept from
sinking into the most repugnant saw
agery. Schools have been established
for their children, but the parents have
t. be bribed to allow the papoose to at
tend. They have the notion that with
education comes work, and a Musk
wali looks upon work with the utmost
horror.
Take them by and large and they
are the dirtiest human beings on the
face of the globe. They live in the most
promiscuous way. They have what
they call a marriage ceremony, but
they might as well have none. All the
suuaws and maidens chew tobacco vio-
| lently, and most of them smoke pipes
| that smell to heaven, according to the
Iowa State Register.
by wise dispensation of Provi-
dence, the death rate among them is
large. Forty-two years ago, when they
came into Iowa from the Indian Terri
! tory, there were 1875 braves and lao
souaws. After nearly half century
there are but 400 of them"
