BALAKIREFF, THE JESTER.
told in a Jest-HOw He Saved
Relatives Life.

There is little of jest to-day per
tanning to the relations of unhappy
Finland with Russia, under whose
rule it has so long been. It's ancient
liberties are passing away from it,
and it is to be compressed into the
uniform Russian model. But accord
ing to historical tradition, the con-
quest of Finland was foretold in jest
that soon became earnest by its con.
queror, Peter the Great, to his jester
Balakireff, says Youths Companion.
Balakireff had vexed the ear by
too impudent a joke, and had been
summarily banished with a menacing
injunction never to appear on Rus
sian soil again. He disappeared dis
creetly; but one day not long after
Peter, glancing out of window, saw
his unmistakable figure and quizzical
countenance jogging comfortably by,
perched in a country cart. Impul-
sively he ran down to him and de-
manded to know why he had dis
obeyed.
81 haven't disobeyed you," was the
answer. I'm not on Russian soil
now"
Not on Russian soil?"
mo; this cart load of earth that
I'm sitting on is Swedish soil. I dug
it up in Finland only the other day"
Peter laughed; but he said: If
Finland be Swedish soil now. it shall
be Russian soil before long!" and he
made good his words.
A plessanter anecdote relates how
Balakireff once interceded for the
life of a reckless relative who had
offended the car, and was under SEN
tence of execution. AS soon as the
Jester showed himself at court Peter,
foreseeing a petition for mercy,
roared out angrily:
Its no use your coming here!
swear that 1 will not grant what you
are going to ask"
Quick as a fash Balakireff dropped
to his knees and cried, entreatingly:
peter Alexeivitch, l beseech you,
put that scamp of cousin of mine
to death!"
All present broke into laughter, in
which the car, so neatly trapped by
his own declaration, presently joined,
and the scampish cousin kept his
head upon his shoulders.

GIGANTIC ADVERTISING.
Grand Trunk Arranges Plans for Pic
ture Exhibit.


Though the Grand Trunk Railway system
carried over 10000 tourists and sportsmen
into one district of Canada's summer play
grounds last year, the Company is starting
out this year with a vigorous policy of adj
vertising to still further increase the influx
of pleasure-seekers who annually travel over
this system.
The company has now decided to give the
pOpulace of some of the larger cities in the
states Of Ohio, Michigan, Indiana, Kentucky
and Pennsylvania an opportunity of seeing
the series of Photographic views it had on
exhibition at the Pan-American exposition
at Buffalo. There will be over 100 pictures
in the collection, each measuring feet
inches by feet inches, in addition to one
of the finest collections of mounted fish
that has ever been shown. The fish include
specimens of black bass from the Highlands
of Ontario" dore and maskinonge from the
st. Lawrence, land-locked salmon from their
native waters, and other specimens of rare
value. A representative of the Grand Trunk
will accompany the exhibit and the art gal
lery will be installed in the business portion
of the cities visited Thousands of copies
of literature, describing the several regions
to be advertised, will be distributed The
exhibit will open at Saginaw, Mich, March
10, and goes from there to Grand Rapids,
thence south to several points in the other
states.
The tour viii occupy ten weeks, two days
being allowed in each city.

The shadows of evening were slow

Kitwater, COdd and HGyle, with two
BURNER servants, were members, OBJ

ruins of which they had come so far
in search. For many days they had
been journeying through the Jungle,
now the prey of hope, now of despair.
They had experienced adventures by

of sufficient Importance to be mar

had come within a hairs breadth Of

A Proud Mother.

A clergyman was recently calico
upon to baptize nine children. From
number one to eight nothing went
amiss. The ninth, however, proved to
be a lusty boy, who soon succeeded in
almost wriggling out OF his somewhat
scanty clothes. The clergyman, grasp
ing the infant by the nape of the neck
and by such garments as still remained
secure, was proceeding with the serv.

OIL BURNING
ON LOCAL BOATS
Trade May Be Greatly Changed
by Use of the liquid
Fuel.

During the past few weeks a great
deal CT correspondence he's passed be-
tween San Francisco shipping people
and wilder's Steamship Company over
the question OF fitting oil burners into
the steamer Kinau which goes to the
coast for repairs today and il is quite
probable that the change will be made
while the vessel is at the Union Iron
Works
For some time there has been talk
here in island steamer circles of the
worth of the oil burners and If is said
that both the local companies have
been looking into the matter. The sue
cess which has attended the placing of
oil burners in the rev steamer Neva-
dan has opened the eyes of many local
people and there are some staunch ad-
vocates of oil burning on the inter
island vessels. If the oil burners are
placed in the Kinau it will mean simply
that fuel oil will shortly be used by
all the island steamers.
The many advantages of fuel oil are
we'll known. 1t is cheaper to handle.
leaves no dirt about the ship, and is
much cheaper than coal as a fuel. In
this connection 1t is claimed that fuel
oil would mean a boom for the island
farmers as freight could be carried
cheaper and thus farmers products
could be placed on the market in Homo
lulu on even terms with the mainland
article.
Chief Engineer Mitchell of the Ne
vadan is loud in his praises of fuel
oil for use in marine work He says it
is only question of time until it will
almost entirely take the place of coal
in the driving OF steamers. With the
use of fuel oil the steaming distance is
increased and the amount of room
needed for bunker space greatly re-,
duced, thus giving room in the vessel
to carry more cargo. Engineer Mitchell
says that the fires are easily kept up
with oil and that it gives him a chance
TO keep his fire and engine room as
clean as any other portion of the YES
sell There are no ashes to handle. and
this in itself is an item of great inn
portance aboard ship. The taking of
the oil from the wharf into the steam
ers tanks is simple matter, and great
loss of time in handling and loading is
avoided. The matter of coaIing at sea,
especially in rough weather, seems to
have an easy solution in fuel OIL The
liquid fuel for steamer like the Me-
vadan weighs forty per cent. less than
the coal she would require. Its bulk
is about thirty-six per cent. less than
coal and It is easier slowed. Only one
quarter the number of stokers are re-
CURED: steam can be got up more
quickly: fires can be extinguished inn
nediately; and there is no smoke. no
ashes, and no waste-in other words
fuel oil is the ideal for use in steam
navigation.

The steamer Kinau. Captain Free
man, of Wilder's line of island steam
ers, leaves at 1 O'Clock today for San
Francisco where she will go into the
Union Iron Works for repairs which
will require three months time to COM
plete The Kinau will practically be
rebuilt as a miniature Alameda and on
her return here it is the proud boast
of her crew that shell be able to beat
the Mauna Loa."
On her trip UP to the coast she will
carry about 5000 bags of sugar a con-
sfgnment of coffee, 300 tons of coal. and
about twenty passengers. 1t is ex-
pected that she viii take about eight
and half days for the passage. so that
letters posted on her today will reach
the coast before those posted on the
America Maru which leaves here on
August 2.
A great many improvements will be
included in the repairs" for the XII
nau. There is possibility that she
may be fitted with oil burners She
will get larger boilers. larger condens-
will be number of minor improve
ments made in her decks so that when
she returns here she viii be a very
