OLDEST MAN IN RUSSIA.
A serf, who, at the AGE NJ 1877 Years,
Retains Many of His Faculties
Unimpnired

The car Of Russia recently received
in audience a man who, from personal
knowledge, could tell the ruler about
the times of Catherine the Great, the
Napoleonic invasion and the war of the
Crimea. His name is Snip (when he
was born Russian peasants had no
family name). He is 1877 years old, and
his former owner, Prince Wolkowski,
was able to furnish the following au-
thentic data about him from his own
archives; "Sinip was born 1775 as a
serf, and drinks vodka and smokes as
long as he can remember" reports a
London paper. Three pints are his
limit, but he never was drunk in his
life" As the czar was able to perceive
himself, Ships eyesight and hearing
are perfect to this day. Every Sunday
he walks eight miles to church ano
never has required charity of aDJ
kind. He still earns his bread by knit.
ting and sandal making; also tends t.
the horses and poultry. The old fel
lows memory is most remarkable Ht
told Nicholas several facts regarding
the Napoleonic invasion not contained
in general history Ships father dice
at so; his mother at 12O working a {
field hand up to a few days before hei
death, and Snip himself never had 4

IN CAMP OF WILD MEN.
Children of Russian Convict Found
in the Heart of n Siberian
Forest

A party of Russian geograpners un-
der Col. Pavovosli, travelling through
an unknown tract OF Siberian forest
country recently, came upon a large
natural clearing, where they found
about a hundred wild-looking indi-
viduals clad in skins and speaking
bad Russian. They were the children
and grandchildren of an escaped CON
vict, who had managed to run away
from the mines in $780, reports a
London exchange.
The convict, whose name was Mat
veyeff, came upon a camp of wander
ing Kirghz (natives) and, after living
with tnem some time, married one
of their women The tribe left to
wander and Matveyeff, finding a
suitable spot in the midst of a dense
forest, settled there with his wife
After ten years of incredible hard
ship and toll they built a house and
managed to tin little soil AS the
years went on the children managed
to secure Kirghize wives, but as they
feared TO visit the Russian settle.
ments they were obliged to lead a
Robinson Crusoe sort of existence
The patriarch Matveyeff died five
years ago.

creek near Gunnis blacksmith shou at

which repairs were donc under the direc
tiOn and supervision Of County Commis-
sioner Albright with the sanction and up
prOvnl OF the other County COMMISSIONS s.
1t being represented that the job 1gns q
small one and not large enough to war
rant the letting Of a contract, the County
auditors find that the bills for the said
repairs amounting TO slS0S6 are very ex-
cessiye and that more work was done than
was actually necessary, and therefore
recommend that the County Commission
ers In the future let no bridge work of an 3
description without first submitting the
same for bids and letting the same to the
lowest bidder
The Auditors further recommend that
the County Commissioners exercise due
, discretion In the settlement Of the ac-
counts with the Assessors for the various
duties performed by them as required by
law. We find that In several townships
the Assessors are charging excessive sums
for the amount Of work performed accord
ing TO the assessed valuation.
