Trial For kishineff sIayers.

London, Nov. A correspondent of the Times in Russia says that arrange ments for the trial of those alleged to be involved in the massacre of the Jews at Kishineff have been made. "The se- lection of judges and other court off cials by the authorities" adds the cor respondent, shows that the trial will be mere mockery, especially as the defendants will not be those against whom considerable discriminating evil dence was produced at the preliminary inquiry, but merely handful of poor workmen and vagabonds.'

Judge OF coffee and must know how to
take advantage of the rise and fall of
the market. Each establishment has
its coffee expert, who can tell by the
eye and nose just what the coffee Is
worth. His judgment Is usually passed
without grinding or burning the bcr-
ries. Samples of about u pint each are
spread out ON blue paper, and the cof-
fee expert will put his price on each
grade by looking At, handling and
smelling the sample. During my stay
here have gone through number OF
the American houses, and among 9th
ers have been much indebted to John
+. Keogh, the manager OF an American
warehouse at Rio.
Coffee Whsrves and Coffee steaIers.
The most of the coffee Is shipped
from what are known as the coffee
wharves. The scenes about there are
among the most interesting of Rio.
Come with me and LOOK at them. We
jump upon car containing about three
tons OF coffee. IL Is hauled by two
mules who drag IL over the street rail-
road through one narrow street after
another down to the bay. We stop al
the wharyes, where Il gang OF negroes
stand ready to take In the bags. They
back themselves up against the cars
and balance the great sacks on their
heads. They carry them In on the
trot, and we hear the thud! thud!
thud! Of their bare feet as they so over
the floor. They run. Tor they are paid
by the piece and not by rbe day. Each
man receives ~ cents for every bag
he brings in. and the best Of the work
men make from s35 to $40 a month,
: which are very high wages here.
What a lot OF policemen there are
everywhere. At the ends OF the
wharves there are soldiers in uniform
TO keep order. A custom-house officer
Is always on hand to see that nothing
, goes on or of the ship without paying
duty. and there are many private de-
, tectiyes. A close watch has TO be kept
to guard against stealing. for the
. wharves are great places for thieves.
The detectives have to look out fol
stealing below tho wharves as well al
above them for sometimes thieves come

An Absent Minded Man.

A story is going the rounds of the
Missouri press regarding farmer who
is greatly troubled with absent minded
ness. On the way home from town,
80 the story runs, the thought came to
him that he had forgotten something.
He took out his notebook, went over
every item, checked it off, and saw
that he had made Ell the purchases he
had intended. AS he drove on he
could not put aside the feeling that
shore was something missing. He
took out his notebook and checked off
every item again, but still found no
mistake. He did this several times,
but could not dismiss the idea that he
must have forgotten something.
When he arrived at home and drove
up to the house his daughter came out
to meet him, and with look of sur
prise asked: "Why, where is maw?."
