UNIQUE GeOCraphical Globe.

In the Academy of Sciences at Tsars-
koe Selo may be seen one of the most
interesting relics in the world. 1t is
geographical globe eleven feet In
dian eter, made of copper. 1t was COM
meuced in the year 1864 and was COM
pleted ten years later, during the
reign of Duke Frederick of Holstein.
The outside represents the earth and
the interior the celestial spheres. There
is a door giving access to the interior
Of the globe. and in the center Is a
round table, which is so large that
twelve persons can easily sit around
1t. BY means Of oldfashOned but
trustworthy mechanism the globe can
De. made to revOlve upon its axis. This
curious relic weighs about three and
a half tons. Ever since 1t was made
1t has been regarded as entirely unique
In its way, and. though it's value for
geographical purposes is not now very
great, 1t is still priced by scientists as
n striking evidence of the interest
which .vas taken in geographical mat
tiers two and half centuries ago.

The Kings PerQuisites.

There are many perquisites to the
crown Of England. The King is en-
titled. for instance, to every sturgeon
brought to land in the United King
dom. One of them. caught in the
Thames, was ON the table at Queen
Victoria's wedding banquet. The King
should receive too every year from
divers persons tablecloth worth three
shillings, two white doves. two white
hares. a catapult. a pound Of cumin

JOHN W. SPRINGER. stock -ralSerS Will in
a short time be running packing
houses of their own. Mr.. Springer is
a young man who has come to the
front rapidly in affairs Of the live
stock world. which means great
deal in these days. Five years ago
the live stock men of the West, prin-
cipally grazers of cattle and sheep,
met at Denver and formed an asso-
citation intended to be national in its
scope. Mr.. Springer took an active
part in its organization and was elect
ed President. Mr.. Springer brings to
his position large experience in the
management of the affairs Of the cat
tie trade, being interested extensively
In one Of the biggest grazing outfits
In the West. In addition to this prac-
teal experience, he possesses the
genius for organization and a remark
able capacity for details, so that he
has been enabled to bring into line a
number of conflicting interests and
consoiIuate them to the point where
he can present an unbroken front to
the natural foes of the cattlemen-in
n business way-the railroads and the
packers. In this regard Mr.. Springer
has had several tests Of strength and
has made record that has won for
him the confidence of his supporters
and the respect Of his antagonists.

| My brother, do you ever in your fancy
seem to see
The wet snow on the bushes where we
crossed the little stream2
DO you ever hear the simmer Of the
sweets that seemed to be
So glad to tender freedom to the vag-
rant clouds Of steam?
And the strip dripped in snow
That was spotless, long ago!
Can you gancy that you taste 1t as Il
tasted to you then?
Oh, to see the embers brightly
Glowing where we watched them
nightly
And to hear you playing on your old
accordion again!
Once more they hear the music of the
drip, drip. drip,
Where the pals, propped up on billets,
lean against the maple trunks;
There are marks that wooden runners
leave behind them as they slip
Where the woodland ways are soggy
and the moss comes loose In
chunks;
All, the soft west winds are blowing
And the sap is flowing, flowing
Where the farmers boy goes spilling
sweet elixir here and there:
The smoke is drifting blue
And the brooks are singing through
The woods where once l whistled, full Of
visions that were fair.

No word Is more feared in Russia
than Sakhalin, the name Of the Cars
penal settlement along the northern
coast of Asia. 1t stands for living
tomb and is perhaps one Of the most
desolate and dreary islands In all the
world. The island Is nearly 700 miles
long and varies In breadth at different
points from Is to 80 miles. A range
Of mountains forms the backbone, in
dividual peaks rising to the height Of
nearly 5000 feet. Dense forests Of
spruce and fir cover the lower slopes
Of the range, but, owing to the lati-
tude, the timber line Is low, and the
lack of transportation renders the for

the summer. days. sometimes weeks,
Of steady snowfall during the winter,

The Women OF New Guinea.

The women and girls In many parts Of
New Guinea wear a skirt of native
grass, which hangs down from the
waist to the knee, each piece of grass
being plated into strong encircling
belt at the top. The material may also
be cocoanut or banana leaves, the for
mer finely shredded with a shell. Some
times the grass used is laid in the mud
and stained black, or redeemed BY the
