Private Gambling In Russia.

There is a good deal Of gambling in
society in England, but 1t is nothing to
what goes on In Russia, says the Lon
don Candid Friend. Nint, preference
and roulette are the principal games.
The second is the most popular in army
circles. while many ladies Of the high
est rank keep roulette tables and have
regular Evenings" Oh which play goes
on for very high stakes. As is usually
the case at roulette, the bank mostly
wins, and the hostess takes good care
to keep the bank.
One OF the most notorious OF these
private dens is run by two ladies Of
the highest rank and connections. Only
the fine ticur OF the society OF ST. Pc
tersburg are admitted, and the entree
IL eagerly sought. The stakes are high.
the plunging often desperate. and men
have been known TO leave these salons
in financial condition which ap-
proaches ruin The princesses. howev-
er, make n handsome income out Of the
bank, and no one thinks the worse OF
them.

while Alfred stepped into the shop,
rolled up his sleeves, worked all day
with his arms and then until midnight
with his brain. They lived In q small
cottage which is still standing in the
factory and which he did not exchange
for better home until long after his
marriage. now quote Mr.. hrupp
own words uttered on the twenty -ffth
anniversary of the founding OF the rae
tory.
From my fourteenth year | had the
care Of a family father during the day,

at night had to study how to overcome
the difficulties in the way. During TINS
period | lived on potatoes. hreau ana
coffee and scant portions Of meat ana
toiled until late in the night. For TWEEN
ty-tiye years | struggled thus until con-
ditions grew a little easier. MY iast

Ancient Chinese Bridges.

Suspension bridges which were built
IN the time of the Han dynasty (202 B.
e. 10 40 4. d. are still standing, stfik-
inr examples OF oriental engineering
sR!ll According to historical and geo
graphical writer's of China. 1t was
shaug I.ieng. kaen Tsu's chief Of COM
mand who undertook 10 construct the
FIRST public roads in the fl0wery em-
pire At that time II was almost Inn
possible for the province of Shense to
communicate with the capital. Lieng
took an army OF 10000 workmen and
cut great gorges through the noun
iaus, filling up the canyons and val
leys with tue debris from his excava-
tons. At places where deep gorges
were traversed by large and rapidly
towing streams he actually carried
cut his plan OF throwing suspension
bridges, stretching from one slope TO
the other.
These crossings. appropriately styled
flying bridges" by early Chinese writ
ers, are high and dangerous looking In
the extreme At the present day a
bridge may still he seen in the Shense
which is 400 feet long and is stretched
over chasm more than 1000 feet

How High Can a Balloon Rlses

The altitude that may be attained
by balloon depends, first. upon lis
size; secondly, upon the filing of gas,
and, thirdly, upon the weight beng
carried. 4 balloon of ordinary size.
5000 cubic feet. carrying the smallest
weight--that Is. one person-when f1'ied
with Illuminating gas may reach 2o,ooo
feet. but when filed with hydrogen
1000 feet. In order to ascend higher
we first OF all need a bigger balloon.
One may say it was happy chance
that the Royal Meteorological institute
of Berlin was provided with balloon
of the unusual dimensions of 3oo.ooV
cubic feet. The German emperor tuf-
nished $500 for making experiments
with 1t, and the Meteorological lnsu-
tute decided to make use of this op-

Ihere are as many vagaries in tho

NATIONS MoRroAeED TO DEATH
South American Countries Pledge he-
sources for Loans.

South American Countries Pledge he-
sources for Loans.
In South America a great many OF
the South American republics are own
ed by money lenders and capitalists,
saws a writer in Gunton's Magazine.
Concessions after concessions have
been granted to corporations and for
eign governments for loans advanced.
Railroads, mining privileges and rev.
enues from nearly all taxable goods
have been pledged. The ease with
which money is squandered by the gov
ernments Of the South American repub-
lies makes many of the smaller ones
chronically hard up, and no sooner
does one revolution dispose of minis
try and President than another move
ment to negotiate new loan begins.
In many cases private corporations
and capitalists have more to say in the
government of the small South Ameri-
can republics than the Presidents or
their cabinets. Virtually owning every
thing of real value in the country, 1t Is
only natural that they should demand
a controlling voice in the management
of affairs that concern their interests.
Thus the Argentine Republic has prac-
tically been sold over to the auctioneer,
and her finances are so involved that
an expert could never straighten them
out.
The ministers do not attempt to do
this; they are satisfied to raise more
money by mortgaglng other property
and industries of the country If in need
of funds for special purposes. Argen-
tina owes over $300,000,000, and every
chance she gets asks for new loans.
Already her mines, railroads and other
natural resources are pledged, and 1t
seems doubtful If anything valuable
can be found to hand over as security
for new loans.
There is not much attempt to pay the
interest on this debt, and the country
is satisfied If the creditors content
themselves with seizing few more
square miles of territory to call the
matter even.

Rare Indian Coins.

The Indian famines have afforded
coin collectors many opportunities to
acquire rare and old coins which have
lain buried for great number Of
years. The native has always shown a
very grave suspicion Of banks and has
usually preferred to bury coins in what
was considered a safe spot. Those hid
ing places are revealed by father to son
and the accumulations sometimes go
on for generations. In dire extremity
the hoard has to be trespassed on;
coins which have long since become ex-
ceedingly rare are thus brought to
light and are eagerly snapped up by col
lectors. Many Of them are being sold in
London at the present time.

Mic , Turkish Customs.

II is said by correspondent OF the
London Telegraph that the habits Of
the Turkish ladies In Constantlnople
are wonderfully fastldious. When they
wash their hands at tap from which
water runs into a marble basin, they
let the water run till servant shuts 1t
off, as to do this themselves would
make them unclean. They cannot open
or shut a door, as the handle would be
unclean.
One of these fastidious ladies was
talking to a small niece the other day,
who had just received present of a
doll from Paris. BY and by the child
laid the doll on the lady's lap. She
was horrifled, and ordered the child to
take 1t away.
AS the little girl would not move it,
and no servant was near, and the lady
would be defiled by touching a doll that
had been brought from abroad, the only
thing she could think of was to jump
I'D and let the doll fall. 1t broke In
pieces.
The same lady will not open a letter
coming by post, but a servant opens
and holds it near for her to read II
her handkerchief falls to the ground IL
is Immediately destroyed or given
away, so that she may not again use 1t.
Among the men this curious state of
things does not exist
