SOME QUEER CHRISTI ANS.

Russia calls itself Christian coun- try, and it invites the world to sympa- I thize with it in it's war against Pa gans." But some of the Russian Chris stians are queer people. For instance, it came out the other day that at Mos COW two individuals holding high social rank, Prince Golitzine and Count Lan- Iskai, have been brought up for public Icensure for having collected, but for having failed to remit, money obtained for the Russian Red Cross Association. The patriotism of the higher social cir lcles in the old capital of Russia was Apparently appealed to, but in these instances the funds, when raised, were lnot turned over to their proper destina- tion. At the same time Captain Vo- llochtchinof, occupying the position of inspector of prisons at Moscow, has been arrested for forging the name of the governor of that city, and in this way obtaining large sums of money. At Irkutsk, in the Siberian military dis trict, Lieutenant Colonel ProussinovskI has been within the last few days dis missed from the service in consequence of having made fraudulent contracts on behalf of the government with certain
 interruptions providers of government
 stores, while a contractor named Kiria- koff has been held up for censure for

 ment to supply it with lumber in east ern Siberia at price held to be twice

Paris sets the pace in the matter of motor watering carts. This muni- cipal automobile carries HOO gallons. The maximum speed is nine and half miles an hour. Each can be filled in six minutes and covers space twenty five feet wide with it's spray. The mo- tor is worked by Steam at thirty-five horse power, and a connection between the wheels and the water jets regulates automatically the output of the latter according to the pace of the cart, and closes them altogether at a stop of the vehicle.

Dr. Charles B. Cooper, Hawaii's health commissioner, thinks the federal government should aid the territory in studying leprosy and caring for the Iepers. Though annexation was hail. ed with delight, it has been to us disappointment and a financial loss," the doctor says. ''All our revenues de- rived from taxes on imports that used to go to local benefit are now sent to the Washington treasury thereby making our burdens much heavier than formerly. Besides this, the application of the immigration laws of the United States has robbed us of the best labor CTS we could ever have-the Chinese. With our revenue and labor thus cut off, it seems as though a rich and hu- mane government ought to be willing to afford relief to remote but de- serving and patriotic territory"

NEW YORK, Oct. 1~4.-Vagaries of
fortune had a striking illustration
when Lady Henrietta, a flly owned
by Arthur Featherstone, won the third
race at Morris park. Odds laid against
her were 100 to 1, but her owner had
no wager. Lew Fields, a comedian, in
a gambling house and poolroom in
Thirty-sixth street turned So into 49,
375. The roulette wheel whirled him
$4T0. The comedian, thinking him
self in a lucky vein, made a bet of
500 against $500 to win and 500
to $500 for third place. In a few
minutes Lady Henrietta had gallop-
ed home six lengths in front of her
field, and the German entertainer saun-
tered out, figuring his profits thus:
Roulette, $40; Lady Henrietta to win,
$4,000; Lady Henrietta third, $500; to-
tai, 1885. All on a five dollar bill.

London, Dec. 21.-The Tooth an
niversary OF the birth OF Benjamin
Disraeh, Earl of Beaconsfield. the
great author and statesman, was cell
ebrated today in London and in the
chief cities of the provinces, where
largely attended meetings of journal.
lists, litterateurs and public men were
held in commemoration OF the event.
Benjamin Disraeli was born in Lon
don. December 21, 1904. He was
early articled to a solicitor, but the
drudgery of a lawyers office being
distRsteful TO him. he turned TO litera-
ture and in 1897 he published his
novel Vivian Gray" which was sue
ceeded at intervals by other works OF
fiction.
After visiting Italy, Turkey, Greece
and Syria. ne returned TO England. to
find the country involved in the Re-
form Bill agitation. After three un-
successful contests he finally succeed
ed in winning seat in parliament.
1t was not until 1s4s that he began
TO attract notice. and not long after
ward he became prominent as the
leader of the Young England party.
For seven years the liberals remained
in power, and Disraeli. in opposition,
displayed talents as a debater. and a
spirit and persistency under defeat.
which won for him the admiration of
his opponents. When Lord Derby re-
turned to power in 1856 Disraeli be-
came chancellor of the excheduer.
Two years later he succeeded Lord
Derby as premier. but in the face of
a hostile majority he resigned short
ly afteFgard.
In aSTs the popularity of Mr.. Glad
stone rapidly subsided and Disraeli
returned to power as prime minister.
In 1877 he took mis- seat In the upper
house as Earl Beaconsfield. In 1880
bis government was defeated In the
general election and Mr.. Gladstone
again returned to power. Earl Bea-
consfield died the following April.
