The Doctors DianErced.

Some Vienna SavanS were lately con-
fronteu with language difficulty. Ac-
c0rding to the Independence Beige, a
young girl, unknown, was found un-
conscious In street at l'rcsburg and
was conveyed to the hospital at Wen
ma, where she recovered consciousness
and began to speak In Il language
which no one present could under
stand. The doctors came to the con-
clusion that the young woman was n
native OF an eastern country.
Consequently some professors from
the oriental school were called In, and
they were all agreed that the girl did
not speak correct language, but o
dialect. The professor Of Persian held
that She spoke Persian dialect and
that he understood 1t. Another pro
fcssor was of opinion that 1t was an
Abyssninn dialect. a third was con-
vinccd that II was n Turkish patois.
Since the savans were not agreed the
pol q" deemed it necessary to make in
quri,s, with the result that the stran-
ger was proved to be Hungarian who
had escaped from n prison and who
did not understand a word of Persian,
ADyssnian or Turkish London Globe.

Russian Fanatics Thus Obtain Re-
lease From Trouble.
Baking themselves in huge roaring
ovens is the climax of emotional cn-
thuSiaSm and self sacrifice Of a
strange sect of Russians. They arc the
Begonny, and they live in the village
of Tcrnowo, near TiraSpOl.
The scct's origin was rather political
and economical than religious, their
agitntions having always been direct
ed toward greater personal liberty and
political power for individual members
of society.
They demand the abolition OF locu-
mcnts for proving Identity and also the
abolition of the necessity for the pass
port. They rcpudlate compulsory mill
tary service, and If forced to bear arms
they are liable to emotional enthus-
aSm. leading to self sacrifice. The
form of death which they adopt Is usu-
ally burial willie alive. but occasional
ly il Is self destruction by fire.
When the last great sacrifice Of the
sect was made, the people adopted the
voluntary cremation method rs n
means Of getting al eternal release
from their troubles. On single day
four families went out from village
and did themselves to death. a huge
oven was built, and into 1t those who
voluntarily decided to die plunged
themselves
The people who lacked the necessary
enthusiasm or strength OF mind or who
felt that they were not worthy Of at
tempting the great achievement knclt

relatives and friends, whose charrcd
bones they kissed In al ecstasy Of af-
fcction and admiration.

"rhe Aztec child had been taught to

to anything said to the countryman's
Interruption, but the countryman was
not to be put down, and once more he
shouted:
"'Say, Bill Evans, maybe you think

MIR. l.. II. Brandt, who lives just out
side the incorporate limits Of Walhalla,
carried us over his farm on Monday
afternoon our principal point Of obscr-
walton was to see his patch Of one half
acre or more OF cotton, planted on the
18th Of June, on land whore he had juSt
harvested a part of his wheat crop.
We were aStonshed to see such fine aud
promising cotton. Tho plant is about
lS inches high, good stand, and full of
squares and blooms, and if rain falls
this week we feel sure that MIR. brandt
viii make large and full yield Of
cotton OF course this land, as well as
all Of Mr.. BrandtS tillablc land, is in II
high state Of cultivation, and hence the
promising outlook for his cotton. His
other cotton, planted much earlier, is
the best that we have seen anywhere,
beng heavily fruitc1 from the ground
up, and will make a good average yield.
or course the present drought is injuring
ms crops materially at this time.
