as long as they live. According to report
received here, the two are being forcibly de-
tanned in separate colonies in Russia The mat
ter Is being investigated, and unless it is soon

Years ago George Schmidt came to America
from Russia. few years later Lydia Miller
came over. In the course of time they met hers
about year ago they determined to visit their
fatherland, Russia. When they arrived the ma
tional police took them in hand. -.
Separated by Police.
They ascertained that Schmidt had come from
a certain colony in Russia and that the woman
had come from another, and insisted on sending
them to their respective homes. In vain did
the couple protest against separation and des-
perately brandish their marriage certificate. The
police, it is said, merely tossed the precious
paper aside and laughed at them As a special
favor, however they allowed the little ones to
be left in the mothers care. Then, paying no
attention to their appeals, the officials sent Mrs
Schmidt and the babies to her colony and
Schmidt to his, and there the unfortunate vis-
itors have been forced to remain. -
Again and again has Schmidt requested that
he be allowed to leave Russia taking his wife
| and children with him, but his demand has al
ways been refused. The authorities declare
they do not believe the couple are married,
and insist on their remaining in Russia and in
separation. ..i ,. :
The news reached Lincoln thru Rev. Gustav
L. Henkelman, now Of McCook, Neb., who has
| received a letter sent with much difficulty by
Schmidt telling of their troubles and begging

CONTEMPLATING SEAWATER
Imitation Successfully Produced for Inland Exhibition of
 Fishes.

Much difficulty has been found hith- erto in keeping marine animals of the more delicate species alive in artificial sea water, such as is cften substituted for the real article where aquaria have to be maintained for months to- gether far from the ocean-for exam pie, at a great exposition in an inland city such as Chicago or St. Louis It Is not convenient, says the New York Herald, to transport the necessary sea water in tanks for 800 miles or more, employed. dissolved in fresh water ac- cording to prescription.
 Experiments have been conducted recently at Woods Holl, Mass. with a view to counterfeiting sea water with such exactness as to make 1t practi- cally indistinguishable from the real stun This, indeed, has been accom- plished so successfully that the most delicate animals. such as sea ane- mones have been kept alive in the artificial fluid for months together Apparently there is no material diff ference between tho imitation and the article provided by old Neptune.
 To accomplish this result 1t was necessary to make quite an elaborate chemical compound. inasnuch as sea water is complicated m xture of Q great variety of substances Roughly speaking, it consists of 96h per cent of fresh water plus three and one-half per cent. of mineral salts. Three fourthS of these salts are chloride of sodium. or common table salt. and the next largest constituent Is chloride of magnesium After these come sul- phate of magnesium, sulphate of lime, sulphate of potash, bromide of mag nesum and carbonate of lime
 In addition to these substances sea water contains minute quantities of quite a variety of elements. including iodine. phosphorus and arsenic. It also contains some silver, copper. zinc. nickel, cobalt, iron and gold. There is said to be two cents worth of gold in every pailful of sea water, but as yet nobody has found way to extract It.. Copper and zinc are found in some seaweeds, and certain species of coral is three -millionths silver

TRADE IN WAR RELICS
Anything That Will Serve as Me- meut0 of Brave Deeds Finds
 Ready Sale.

War medals, mostly won at the cost of peril and privatiOn, are pawned by possessors and never redeemed, or are sent to the hammer by needy relatives oH the decease of the veterans. It may De here noted that no man on the army active strength is allowed to pledge bis medals. As is well known, war decora- tionS that pass by the means stated, and otherwise, into commerce, are eagerly purchased by dealers, who dis pose of them to museums; also to prt- vate collectors of every grade, from American miIlionaircs to British pub licans.
 These disks of silver especially those awarded for modern campaigns, from the Crimean war downward, are occa- sionaI.y put by dealers to novel use. Dy the aid of blowpipe the inscrip- ton on the edge can be filled with sii- yer, when the surface, if need be, is ready for reengraving. DoStoriog of the name, rank and regiment by tie method mentioned i5 common in the trade. So it may be that the yirtuosO who imagines that he possesses a me mento of the late gallant Gen. Fitz Car mage, K. C. B., who distinguished him self at Balaklava, would be shocked if he knew that his pet curio is a fraud and that it belonged to old Tommy Atkins, of the Onety-oneth foot, who pawned it before he retired into the workhouse to die.
 Again. officers serving or retired sometimes lose their medals, or have them feloniously annexed. Sooner than go through the war office red tape mill to procure duplicates relettered medals are obtained from dealers Mendicants get hold of the medals in order to ex hibit them to credulous and benevo- lent folks, and thus extract more lib- eral aims. War decorations are also oc- casionally sported by one-armed or sim gle-legged organ grinders. Such gentry warrant themselves to be British, and plead for patronage as matter of na- tonal sentiment and as opposed to the claims of the Saffron bill musical con tingent of invaders. These medal-dis- playing humbugs are seldom exsol- ,liers, far less have they been disabled in active service. They are at times considerably ''out" in respect of a bit of medal ribbon shown. For instance, an organ grinder of about g years of age was observed in Holborn the other day sporting the Crimean and Mutiny ribbons.
 Sometimes an actor possessed of passion for realism, who may have to impersonate on the stage the hero of 100 fights, invests in real medals with which to cover the breast of his tunic. Also genuine war decorations adorn the uniformed presentments of eminent warriors in the best-class wax exhibi- tions throughout the country. A year or two ago a paragraph went the rounds of the papers to the effect that king of a tribe on the west coast of Africa had d mania for collecting British war medals, and that a city firm had standing order to supply his sable maj esty. The king owned major gen. erals tunic on which were sewn-both back and front. and from collar to tails medals and clasps from those of the peninsula and Waterloo downward. This garment the monarch proudly sported on extra special state occasions. Regiment.

LESSONS FROM THE FROG.
Sw wimmers Can Get Valuable Point CTS by Studying Creature's
 Methods.

''Those who want to become expert swimmers will do well to go to the nearest brook or swamp and study the manner and method of the frog" re- marked teacher of swimming in one of the natatoriums in the city. The most expert swimmers in the world are tyros compared with the laziest bullfrogs. The difficulty with all swimmers Is that they spoil the effect of the stroke by the recovery. When q frog starts off he draws his legs care fully and slowly up under him until he is in the position of a man sitting on his launches. Then he suddenly gives a mighty spring in the water. l<ick king his legs out, not behind him, but almost directly sidewise. After the kick his legs are slowly drawn to- gether by his motion through the wa ter until they hang out behind him in a perfectly rigid form. Every toe of his web feet is held out as straight as an arrow and then nothing retards his motion through the water. He will lie in this position until every bit of the
 
 gone as far as the force of his kick will send him through the water. Then again he slowly and carefully draws his legs in and repeats the perform } ance. You will notice that in drawing the legs up to his body for second kick the frog recedes a little. This is owing to the action of the upper leg on the water. and it corresponds ex- actly with the similar movement on the part of Il man. The first thing a frog does is to give his body a good start through the water, and he holds himself in such way that he gets the whole value of the stroke. man starts out with just such a kick, but after he has gone two or three feet he will begin to swing his hands forward or draw up his legs in such fashion that theS offset the whole value of his work. He stops his own body half way before the effect of the stroke has spent itself. ."-Chicago Chronicle,
