Spectacles of the Country Made to
 Order for a Journey of Catherine. '

Spectacles of the Country Made to
 Order for a JOurney of Catherine. '
 Modern invention has provided every luxury for the journeying monarch, but the means and money of to-day do not furnish more remarkable nor costly journeys than one taken by Catherine, the Great, says the Youths Companion.
 Catherine had made conquests in the Crimea, and her prime minister, Prince POtemkin, persuaded her to visit her new possessions. The precautions for, the journey took some time. Convey ances had to be built and vessels got ready. The distance to be gone over by land was over 2,00O kilometers, and for q great part of the way the road had to be made. One herculean task was clearing the river Dneper of dan gerous rocks. Ill all, over 100000 rubles were spent in this six months journey.
 The start was made in January, 17S6. An immense sleigh had been built for the empress, fitted up as tOOnu, III WhiNA CiShb pSAoOAio NouA' amuse themselves in comfort, playing cards or consulting the books with which the walls were lined. Thirty horses drew this great vehicle; fresh relays awaited at every station. AS the weather was bitterly cold, huge bon fires were lighted at regular intervals to temper the atmosphere.
 Every house in which the court rest cd was newly built or furnished. The linen and the service never did service but once.
 At Kiev eight ships were waiting to convoy the royal company. Handsome rooms were built on the deck, hung with silk and luXuriOusly furnished. But the strangest and most eXtravagant feature of the whole proceedings was the appearance of the country through which the river runs.
 The empress gaZed in surprise at the wonderful and enchanting sights. h. stead of the dreary desert she had sup posed, the prairles, stretching away on every hand, were covered with herds of sheep and goats, tended by gayly dressed shepherds playing on pipes. Picturesque towns and villages were peopled by youths and maidens, who trlpped down to the shore singing quaint airs. Every stopping place re- vealed such scenes, all strikingly alike.
 This was the secret of the Arcadian spectacle: Potemkin had forced all these people to leave their homes in Little Russia and to betake themselves to the shore so that Catherine and her guests in passing might see nothing but happy villages and loyal subjects. No sooner had the galleys moved on than the people, taking cross roads by night, transplanted themselves to the next sham village and went through the same performances. Over thousand villages of Little Russia were depOpu- lated in this manner. In their long journey home many of these forced &C., tors died of fatigue and want.

About half past eight o'clock last
night an alarm of fire was sent in to
the department from the Gait restau-
rant on lower Second street. The de-
partment was out Immediately but
found that the alarm was false. The
proprietor of the restaurant noticed
heavy smoke and a blaze over near
the electric light plant and without
waiting to further investigate sent
in the alarm. It was found that a
smoke stack at the light plant was be-
ing burnt out and this caused the
restaurant man to think that build
ing was on fire. The alarm brought
out a large crowd.
Last night the mascot of the fire
department, the bright little son of
Fire Chief Rogers followed the fire
department when IL was called out

was on foot and he attempted TO
shorten the distance by cutting across
some vacant lots when he ran into
wire fence and inflicted painful
wounds on his face and side He was
plucky though and kept on till he
came up with the wagon, He was
taken home and his injuries dressed
and today he is feeling pretty good.
He was quite severely cut but the
wounds are not dangerous.
At the meeting of the Bankers as
sociation in Glenwood Springs, F. b.
| Gibson on behalf of the Legislative
committee, presented a draft of a
bill for the regulation of banking in
Colorado. 1t provides for the APP
pointment of state bank commits
sioner by the governor to be confirm
ed by the state senate and to hold
office six years. The commissioner
must have five years practical ex-
perience in banking and must have
no interest in any bank except as a
depositor. The bill has the same
provisions of secrecy and methods
of examination as the national bank
ing laws. 1t provides for the exam
nation of banks at least twice a
year. Among the provisions is that
which declares that the making OF
false statements as to the banks con
dition shall be deemed perjury. The
draft of the bill met with approval
of the meeting. 1t will probably be
brought up for consideration at the
next session of the legislature.

THE MAN FISH.

There used to be traditions among the
sailors OF mermaids at sea. half women
and half fish, and there are fishes which
may have given rise to the belief. from
their remembrance to human beings. one
of these is called the man FISH.
This animal inhabits the mouths of the
Amazon, Orinoco and other South Amer
lean rivers. Its name (manatee) has ref
erence 10 the peculiar form of it's SWIM
ming paws. These are composed of soft
parts and a membrane which infolds the
bones of the hands and fingers. But in
the manatee four fiat nails are seen at
tached to the edge Of the paw.
The tail also is peculiar, being about
one-fourth the length Of the body and
oval shaped, not unlike that Of the otter.
The head is round. attached TO the body
without a neck The muzzle, In which
the nostrils are placed, is large and fieshy,
the upper lip cleft and bristled at the
side the lower lip much shorter and the
mouth small.
When seen at distance, with the an
terror part OF the body out OF the water,
they are sometimes taken for some crea-
ture approaching to human shape. The
effect has been deepened by the thick set
hairs OF the muscle, giving somewhat the
appearance OF human hair or beard.

strated merit. But changes and promotions in the
subordinate ranks cannot and will not give that
measure of efficiency which the people pay for and
have right to demand, so long the at the
head is one who has been convicted OF grevous
misdoing.
A chief besmirched is not fit to command. He
does not enjoy either the confidence or respect of
the men over whom he is placed or of the COM
munity at large. Without confidence and respect
he becomes little more than a hgurehead whose
only potency is in the direction of decentralization
and dsorganization.
stream polluted at its source carries dehle-
ment throughout IT'S course. A police department
discredited at its head is discredited throughout
all its grades. Shifts and shakeups will not rem
edy such condition
And for that condition the police commission
is wholly and directly responsible. In the matter
OF the charges against Chief Matthews it did what
any just and impartial tribunal would have done
pronounced him guilty.
There its good work ceased Yielding to the
pressure OF Braytonsm it failed to enforce just
verdict by just punishment 1t permitted Mat
thews TO escape with other penalty than an
empty reprmand and continued him in command
of department he disgraced as we'll as himself
by his wrongdong.
Just as long as Matthews is retained as chief
just SO long will the police department of Provi-
dence continue in state OF Generalization that
will render impossible that efficient and satisfac-
tory service the public has right to expect.
The shakeup, however, bears distinctly anti
Matthews aspect and in several directions places
in the power OF men believed to be honest and
capable officers to prove that the laws can be
enforced, despite the man at the head OF the de-
partment.

In spite OF the fact that doctors al
ways take the pulse OF patient from
the wrist few persons know what i'm
portant parts OF the body the wrists
are and how much may be accomplished
by treatment OF them. When one has
tainted water should be applied to the
wrists as freely as to the face and tenn
pies In cases OF severe Illness doctors
frequently order the wrists to be bathed
with milk and with beef tea. Athletes
learn that the wrists must be kept cool
I'm summer and warm In winter. You all
know the relief experienced from remov-
ing a tight glove. especially when you
are overheated The relief comes not from
the hands being uncovered, but from the
wrists being unconflned and kept cool.
