American trotter his Russian prototype
is the best of its kind. Hundreds Oh
thousands of dollars have been invested
nv Russians in the development OF the
trotter, and every year shows improve

Russian trotting horses, so dear TO the
heart of the fashionables In st. Peters

to the trotters and PAGERS OF this coun-
try and appear only in the shafts OF the
lightest rubber-tired vehicles and
sleichs. These trOtters are bred for
speed and not for staying powers; a
glance reveals the cart strain IN the
breed. which comes out particularly In
the head, and legs with their large
hairy fetlocks. As the horses are rat
tied at the highest speed over the
toughest ground, even over cobble-
stone pavements, the big fetlocks soon
give under the strain, so that after
year or two Of fast driving these trot-
ters leave their dignified stables for the
cab rank. Many Russian trotters have
done their mile under 2:2O.
These animals owe their origin as q
distinctive class to Count Orion Tchest.

England comes last. with only 1900
horsepower. Some $4,000 Of the power
credited to America belongs to Canada.
a country which abounds In undevel-
oped water powers.
These water powers are made to do
all that coal can do. except raising a
smoke. A coal bed IL exhaustible, and
every ton taken from it brings it near
er its end; but the energy Of waterfalls
Is inexhaustible and will be available
for mans needs long after the last
pound of coal is raised from the mine.
Not the least remarkable feature of
this new departure is the size of the
turbines employed. One hundred horse
power used to be regarded as q large
amount to be given by a single wheel.
Some Of the turbine at Niagara develop
fifty times as much. The next great
movement may be the utilization Of the
tides. In which there is an immense re-
servoir Of power. We may see the day
when the great amount Of water power

the gold under its frozen soil.-Hart-

the AFRICAN SLAVE TRADE.

Awful 6u9srlng Of the victins % the
Tra1c In Humanity.
Every one knows how wearissme II
h to lie for any great length Of time
In one position, even ON well-mads
bed. We must needs turn over when
we are awakened in the night. But
the slaves were chained down naked on
the planks Of the decks and shelves
planks that were rough just ~ they
came from the saw, and had cracks
between them. No one could turn from
side to side to rest the weary body.
They must lie there on their backs for
eighteen hours at q stretch even In
pleasant weather In port.
Hard as that fate was, new tortures
were added with the first jump Of the
ship over the waves. For she must
roll to the pressure Of the wind on the
sails. 30 that those on the weather side
found their heels higher than their
heads. and when the ships angle In
creased under the weight Of q smart
breeze the unfortunate sometimes sag-
ged down to leeward. until they were
stopped by the irons around ankle and
wrist. They were literally suspended
-crucihed In their shackles.
Even that was not the worst Of their
sufferings that grew out of the motion
Of the ship. for she was rarely steady
when heeled by the wind. She had to
roll, and as she did SO the slaves some
times slid to and fro, with naked bodies
On the rough and splintery decks.
There was never a voyage even In the
best ships where the slaves did not
suffer toFtures from mere contact with
the slave-deck.
To the sufferings due to these causes
were added other tOrments. when the
weather was stormy. For then II was
accessory to cover the matches lest the
waves that swept across the deck pour
down and fll the ship. The slaves
were confined In utter darkness, and
the scant ventilation afforded by the
natchways was shut OF. Serious as
that was, still worse must be told The
negroes were made violently seasick
more readily than white people even
they sometimes died In their convul
sions. The heat and foul air quickly
brought ON more serious Illness; but
there the slaves were kept in their
chains for days at q stretch, wholly
helpless and wholly unattended
