mon interest, and the necessity for their
multiplication is hardly obvious when it
is remembered that in union and not
in division there is strength. This OBJ
serva'ion is drawn forth. however. by
the announcement that the South Da-

troubles.

you take me for?'
"Well, 1 knew the girls father; he
was merchant, and L called to See
him. We finally drifted around to
talking about this young fellow, and
the old man flared little, stating that
he wanted some one who could sup.
port a wife to have his daughter.
"SuppCrt wife, said 1, in sur
prise; why, he certainly can do all
that. Only a few days ago he refused

Herewith are presented some in
teresting particulars regarding tho
present status of the entire staff OF
The Russian generals. The facts were
secured from conversation with an
army officer, aud are undoubtedly
authentic.
Three times every year the Russian
general staff at ST. Petersburg pre-
pares a register of the generals, listing
them according to seniority. These
lists are never printed, however. Ac-
eording to the last register, the whole
number of the generals of the imperial
army is 1913. The ages of these Of
dcers range from forty to eighty nine
years, and of tho number 10l are full
generals, 3G5 are acknowledgements
and 1872 are maior-g generals. The gan-
erals receive in salaries an aggr sgute
of 7,0OO,O 900 rubles year.
OF the full generals three are field
marshals general, thirty-seven are
aids-de-cGmp, and of these four are
foreigners, but, Notwithstanding this
fact, hold this high rank and are AZ
tached to the household of his I'm
perial Majesty. The remaining fifty
seven full generals are in command OF
infantry, cavalry, artillery or engin aer
corps. The age of the full generals
varies from fifty-four to eighty nine
years.
AS to their education, five have re-
ceived instructions at universities CT
ut the higher military academies. Tw d,
have passed through both the common
academy and the general staff academy,
tha highest in the empire. Forty
seven have passed through only one
academy, and forty-one have received
their education outside these institu-
tions. The ages of the lieutenant
generals ranges from forty-fve to
eighty five years, and of the major
generals from forty to seventy eight
years. Moscow Correspondence Chi.

Contraband of War.

Many old stories are told with re.
gard to the difficulties in 6ete,ting
contraband of war, but there is an
other side to the question. During
the Franco -Prussian War lady in a
carriage was stopped en- her way
through the Prussian lines. 4 search
was instituted to see whether she had
been playing the spy or had suspicious
papers. Nothing was found until the
Prussians came to a certain black
box, which the lady positively re-
fused to give up or allow to be
opened. She was told that she must.
She refused, abused the soldiers as
towards and screamed loudly. Eventu-
ally the box was opened by force in
spite of her resistance, and then it
was found to be full of toilet access

of Irritation. She was passed on with
apologies and smiles.
