cassini Not Likely to Return.

Count Cassini, the Russian ambas-
sador to this country, has long desired
to obtain a diplomatic station in Paris
or London. He is said to feel that his
prestige was damaged by his failure to
prevent the United States from con-
templating sending the Kishineff petit
ton to St. Petersburg. Consequently
he is not expected to resume his resi-
deDce as ambassador in Washington

Where Are the crippIes?


"I have often wondered" said the
Major, what became of the men Sc
verely wounded in battle. Nearly
1000 officers and enlisted men came
out of the Union service minus an arm
or a leg. Where are they now? OF
the 100000 men wounded in battle,
$4,000 died in hospital and $4,000
went home disabled. How have the
latter Jared in life's struggle? To
what extent did the wounds limit
their activity in business, and in what
degree were their lives shortened by
the wounds that gave them so much
anxiety forty years ago.
There are comparative few one
legged or one-armed men prominent
in public life. / have in mind Gen.
Henderson of Iowa, who manages his
artificial leg so well that few ever
think of his disability. Congressman
Castle of Wisconsin has only one arm
and Gen. Rice of the census depart
ment lost an arm and a leg, but in
some way you forget that such active
men must have been counted at one
time among the seriously wounded.
There are Beaver of Pennsylvania,
representatives of men who were not
put at any great disadvantage by the
loss of a leg or an arm. There must
be two or three thousand others who
suffered amputation, and / wonder
where they are?''-Chicago Inter

ENsLAvED IN COAL MINE.
Ten HaIf-Starved SIavs Tell Rather
 Remarkable Story.

New York, January 10.-Ten Slavs, rag ged and half starved, have arrived here from Toms Creek, Va, whither they went six weeks ago with thirty-two others on the promise of steady work in a coal mine at $250 day.
 They tell a story of oppression that caused the Austrian ambassador at Washington, Baron Hengenmueller, to start an investigation with the object of freeing the men still at the mine and of obtaining redress for their wrongs. After having been hired, the men say they were taken to the little town of Georgal, on the Baltimore and Ohio rail- road, whence they drove twenty miles across the country. The next morning the men received several sticks of dyna- mite and some petroleum. These are your tools" they were told. "They will cost you $40, and we will take it in in stallments out of your pay
 According to their story the men worked eleven hours the first day. At night they received 50 cents instead of $2 20 and they protested. But they were told to be careful of their money as they would be expected to pay part of the cost of their materials out of it at the end of the week. This condition of af- fairs continued for three weeks. Then the forty-two men escaped. All but ten were recaptured. and taken back to the mine.

BIRMINGHAM REAL
 ESTATE IS SCARCE
NO CENTRAL PROPERTY IS ON THE MARkET-ALMOST lMPOS- SIBLE TO BUY LOT ON THE SOUTH HIGHLANDS.

The Birmingham real estate market has been strong and fairly active for some time past, and prices are on higher level than they were six months ago, and they will continue to advance.
 ..The trouble with our real estate mar ket from the agents point of view" said w. B. Leedy, of w. B. Leedy &r Co.,, yes- terday, lis there Is so little central prop erty offered for sale.
 Some sales of investment property have been made recently, but today l do not know of but one piece on First ave- nue between Nineteenth and Twenty first streets, that is on the market. It is opposite the building, Nos. 2019 and 2021 that Gen. George P. Harrison bought the other day. I do not know of any property on Second avenue between Eighteenth and Twenty-first street that is for sale, and only one or two pieces on Third ave- nue. Nineteenth and Twentieth street property Is as hard to buy as that on the avenues, and very little on Twenty first street is being offered.
 There have been many solid improve ments on Twenty-first street recently, and values in that part of the city will be well maintained
 "Residence sites are selling well. Many choice lots are on the market, but 1t is almost impossible now to get a piece of ground on the South Highlands"
