The Strange Career
Of Prince Khi1koff

Prince Khilkoff, the Cars Minister
of Public Works and Railways, who
has charge of the transportation of
Russian troops to the seat of war in
Manchuria, is man of remarkable
ability He has had an interesting
career, and one very unusual for a
Russian statesman. His father was
a wealthy and powerful nobleman, but
khilkoff quarreled with him when he
was twenty years old and left home,
declaring that he would never accept
another kopeck from the paternal
bounty
The young nobleman, who had been
used to the luxurious life of the Rus
sian court, worked his way across
the Atlantic and landed in Philadel-
phia. almost destitute. He promptly
went to work at anything he could
find to do, from Singing hash to
running a locomotive" as one of his
numerous American frienus said.
At last he got position in a large
machine shop in Philadelphia, his
first job being to make steel bolts.
He worked his way up until he be-
came manager of the concern, and
before he left America he learned the
railroad business from start to finish,
from oiling truck to managing a sys-
tenn. At one time he ran locomotive
on the Pennsylvania Railroad.
After he had become successful
man, he went back to Russia, entered
the Cars service, and rose rapidly
to his present position through his
knowledge Of railroading.
When the TransS Siberian line was
decided upon, he revisited the United
States to examine American railway
systems again and see what fresh
hints he could gather If he had had
his way, the line would certainly have
been better built than it is. He de-
vised the plan of carrying trains
across Lake Baikal on steam ferries,
after the American style, which had
never been thought of in Russia be-
fore.

King of Siam which none OF

1yaa,, -, H. a.,,o1o.. - oo-.-


4 King of Siam which none Of
~ his subjects may share is to
keep in his employ corps
of dancing girls who trip the light
fantastic toe before His Majesty when
he is weary of the affairs of State
and would be amused. These girls
must not only be able to dance many
intricate steps with grace and spright-
illness, but must also be able to sing
songs to accompany the dances. Can
didates for admission to the royal
corps Of dancers begin their education
when they are five years old, being
at that early age put in charge of
dancing masters and singing teachers,
who keep them steadily at work for
years. until they become the most sup
pie and lissome little singing creatures
imaginable
In the school where they are train
ed there IS a gymnasium, where they
pass much time in various exercises
calculated to make their limbs and
bodies flexible and strong. One OF
the exercises consists of bending over
and picking up a straw from the floor
with the eyelids. Not all the girls can
do this, it being task possible only
to the youngest and most supple
among them. Beginning training at
the age of five, when a girl is fifteen
she is thought fit to dance before
the King and joins the older dancers.
A girl Of fifteen in Siam is like girl
of seventeen in this country in de
velopment After joining the regular
dancing corps the girl must still con-
tlnue her gymnasium practice, SO that
she will preserve her suppleness and,
more than all, so that she will not get
stout. A fat dancing girl is horror
upon which the King would not look,
so the girls have to be careful and not
eat too much, as we'll as persevere in
dance of the King is the cup dance"
which is performed by the youngest
of the dancers or by the little girls
undergoing instruction.
In a great hall, splendid with carv-
ing and rich with gliding, a class of
little girls from the dancing school
will take station on the marble floor
with the King and his court seated
around. The girls are gaily dressed
in embroidered muslins Of various
co1ors-pink, blue, white and yellow
and wear many ornaments of gold and
silver, or else are covered with flow
ers of a tropic sort The music strikes
up, slow measure at first, and each
girl places a cup of jade, malachite
amber or some precious material filled

Information That Should Interest
Every Woman at the Be-
ginning Of the Fall

morning you may feel a shaky sensa-
ton if the cold was severe i'll its on
slaught, but, if you have restful day,
you will see that the storm has passed
But if the cold has settled down anil
will not let go its hold, and if it IS
impossible for you to nurse it and
so shorten its duration, then you may
mitigate the annoyance in many ways
and prevent the distressing symptoms
from writing themselves all over your
face.
If the cold settles in the head, stop
ping the nasal passages, you must
take steps to relieve the inflammation,
otherwise you will be caught breath
ing through your mouth, and nothing
could possibly be more disastrous to
good looks. Simple vaseline works
like cham in this matter. Rub the
upper part and sides of the nose with
it, including the space between the
eyebrows, the forehead just allow
them, and the temples Rub hard and
make the skin absorb all the vaselinc
it will. In doing this at night you
may leave the vaseline on the skin,
which will absorb more of it during
the night, and it is we'll to leave it on
as often as you are not to appear in
public Immediately afterward If it
must be removed, battle it off with
warm water Dust on little powder
to remove the oily look. Repeat the
process as often as the nasal stopping
recurs. At the same time, gently rub
a little vaseline on the inside of the
nostrils as far as you can reach, and
snuff it UP further. 1t allays the in
fammation and soothes the smarting
which often occurs.
There is usually much chapping of
the lips and outer edge of the nos
trils. Nothing is better for this than
the old-fashioned camphor ice. Buy
it of reliable druggist, scrape off a
bit with the finger nail, soften it over
the gas and apply it to the chapped
skin at night.
From beginning to end see to it that
the system is kept thoroughly cleans
ed. On this depends the fastening OF
the cold and the salvation of the COM
plexion. There is a great tendency
toward clogging of the pores. Eat
fruit, either stewed or fresh, drink
hot water before breakfast. and re-
sort to medicine if absolutely neces-
sary. Give the face warm bath every
night to cleanse the pores, rub it af-
forwards with coarse towel. Rub in
cold cream, as much as the skin will
take, wiping off all that is left outside
The Saint Paul globe. (St. Paul, Minn.) 1896-1905, 1904-09-11

Avoid powder as much as you can
during the cold, for it has an inclina-
ton to clog the pores when they are
not acting we'll of themselves. But
above all, keep the system clear.
Lemonade will be of great benefit,
pears are good, prunes are excellent
Exercise mildly each morning, but
only to keep the system in working
order, not in way to be firing or to
induce oyerheating In general, rest
ness, for all the vitality that can be
saved is yours to fight the cold with.
Perhaps you are victim of fever
known as cold sores. They are a
trial to any woman's vanity. They
cannot even be covered by an old
time beauty patch. But one need not
suffer from them long. Usually pow
dered borax will, drive them away in
haste; moisten the surface of the bis
ter so that the powder will adhere,
then plaster it on and keep it there
as long as you are not on dress pa
rade. If the blister is obstinate, try
this lotion: e ounce ointment rose
water, 5 grains camphor, - dram sub
nitrate bismuth, u dram powdered
arrowroot.
Ifs your eyes are at all weak they
probably succumb to cold at its first
announcement, and the most express
sive orbs lose all their beauty under
such circumstances. They turn red,
the lids become swollen, there is a
general "weepiness" about them Be
very careful of them for few days.
Serious eye troubles have often re-
suited from using them during a
period of irritation With other parts
of the body it is different. They can
put UP with strain and recuperate
later on when they have chance
But the eyes are unforgiving; they
never forget an injury and often pay
you back severely later on.
There is no better wash to reduce
the inflammation and Danish redness
of eyelids, than a mixture of 2 ounces
/ camphor water and grains borax.
To battle the eye balls and lids both
thoroughly there issno means to COM
pare with the eyecup. 1t is a tiny
tumbler, to be had of any druggist, and
costs but 10 cents. Half fill it with
the wash, add a very little hot water,
just enough to take the chill off the
mixture and so make it comfortable,
then fit the cup over the eye, throw
:he head back and open the eye wide
You will soon learn to do this with
out any blinking and starting.
The hair is likely to suffer from the
fever which cold induces At the
end of the time you may find it falling
and dandruff starting. Daily massage
Of the scalp with few applications
of vaselne during the period of the
cold will alay thc inflammation.
II the cold settles in the limb,
causing aching and stiffness, get some
ore to give you good, vigorous rub
bing with alcohol or spirits of cam
phor. After the rubbing go to bed al
once and cover warmly

- upon you, and, in spite Of
A l. every warning and lecture,
you have acquired your fall
cold or will soon do so. The good
people who write and read long dis
cusslons upon the prevention of colds
must feel discouraged. They preach
year in and year out. and the colds
go sneezing and coughing on as
cheerfully and uninterruptedly as ever
before, quite as in the days before
hygiene was made a science for the
study of every primary school child.
You wouldn't feel quite at home
without your colds You would con-
slider yourself abused if you could not
get your shoes wet as often as was
pleasant, and sit in the wet shoes af-
forwards. You would feel injured if
anybody made you put on long
sleeved underwear just because the
weather had turned crisp. You must
have the privilege of sitting in a
strong draught to rest when tired and
overheated There's as much use in
telling you how to ward off colds as
there is in telling you how to avoid
Cupids arrows. All that you want to
know is, how to be pretty now that
the cold is upon you and you are red
eyed and red-nosed and rusty in the
joints.
In the first place, now that the cold
is upon you, it is just as we'll to take
precautions while you are in a docie
mood. Even though the horse is out,
there is no reason for not locking the
barn door 1t is a very easy matter
to prolong the cold now that it has
gained a foothold.
Within the first twenty-four hours
almost any cold can be broken up if
you give yourself over entirely to the
business Of doing so. After this time
it is usually impossible to do more
than modify it. If you have the op-
portunity TO seize it in time, go to
Turkish bath or take the best sub
stitute you can at home. The bath in
either case will be worse than none
if you do not go to bed Immediately
afterward and stay there, muff1ed and
perspiring, for long sleep.
If you take the bath in your own
tub, make it as hot as you can com
fortably endure, have a big tumbler
of hot and strong lemonade ready to
bolt at the end, and jump into bed be
fore any chill can strike you Be sure
that every possible draught is ex-
cluded from your bedroom. In the

music quickens, and, moving to its
rhythm, the girls begin to dance, all
the time bearing the full cups of water
on their heads and not spilling a drop
vt one part of the dance the children
all kneel down facing the King and
folding their hands, bow until Their
foreheads touch the marble floor,
keeping the cups upright meantime by
sending them back upon their heads
with series of little jerks of the neck
skillfully executed. AS they raise
their heads they wriggle the cups back
again in the same manner and then,
springing to their feet, continue the
dance.

REPUBLICANS WIN.

Denver, Col, Dec. 30.--By the ac-
ton of the state canvassing board in
issuing certificates of election as SEN
ators to Cashmere Darela and Henry
B. Willard, the republicans have Sc
sured such absolute control of the as
sembly that it is now regarded in
democratic circles as highly probable
that Gov. James II. Peabody will be
reseated. The republicans plan, it is
said, to accomplish this by throwing
out the vote of all democratic wards
Of Denver and counting the vote of
the republican wards. The senate now
stands: republican, 10, democratic,
Is, vacancy, !. On joint ballot the
legislature stands: republican &C.,

BY throwing out Los Animas county
precinct the canvassing board con-
verted a majority of 124 into ma
jOrity OF POT for Darela and by a
similar action in Boulder county the
reelection of Senator Ward, democrat,
was nullified and his seat given to

Although the members of the can

stood on the proposition to 60 behind

BUCK FOUND GUILTY,
jury Convcts Him Of Murder in the
Second Deqree

Newton, Dec. 29.-After delibera,
ton covering just twenty-four hours,
the jury in the murder trial of Willard
Buck, accused Of shooting John Por-
ter in Prairie City last summer, re-
turned verdict of guilty OF murder
in the second degree. The verdict OF
the jury carries with it penalty of
Imprisonment of from ten years to
life.
The trial was one Of the most sen.
sational which has ever been held in
Jasper county, deriving it's Chief in
terest from the testim0ay Introduced
with a view to showing that Bucks
appearance of insanity was feigned,
in the hope that through this means
he might be cleared of the charge
against him. The turnkey of the Jail
and Ed. Parmley, trusty who had
been detailed to care for Buck, gave
the chief evidence along this line.
Parmley testified that he was to be
given a COW and certain other articles
if he would tell visitors to the Jail Of
Bucks strange actions and other
stories which would lead them to
think that the man was insane.
Parmley said that the medicine which
was supposed to be given Buck was

ARE LIBERAL
Imperial Ukase Covers a
Large Number Of
Heads.
CARS CHRISTMAS PRESENT
Promises Equitable Enforcement of
Existing Laws - Fullest Possible
Measure Of Self. Government Guar.
anteed and Freedom Of Press

st. Petersburg. Dec. 27.-Emperor
Nicholas long expected reform ukase
was issued last night. The document
deals, under eight heads, with prac-
tically all the subjects brought to
the emperors attention by the me-
mortal of the congress of zemstvos
| presidents held here last month, and
while not specifically pledging the
government to carry out the various
reforms in their entirety, as demanded
| by the memorial, promises that each
| shall be referred to the council OF
| ministers, with orders to report
promptly on the fullest measures of
relief which can be accorded on the
various subjects.
One question not touched by tho
ukase is that Of the constitutional as.
sembly. Neither is the Jewish reli-
| gion specifically mentioned, though
| freedom for all creeds or sects,
whether Christian or otherwise, IL
among the subjects which will be
dealt with.
The various subjects will be re-
ferred to committees for early re-
| port.
The ukase was issued so late that
its contents We're not generally known,
even in the newspaper offices, till
long after midnight. Among those
able to express an opinion, it was
considered to be document whose
ultimate value depended largely upon
the Interpretation given by the var.
ious committees as to the measure of
liberty which it is possible to grant
under the various heads named. Nat
urally, it has not met the fullest
wishes Of the liberals, but on the other
hand it is regarded by the reactionar-
les as promising entirely too much in
the direction Of liberal reforms. 1t
is complained, also, that there is some
ambiguity of expression in the var.
ious sections of the document, which
must be left to Interpretation by those
to whom the various reforms are en-
trusted.
