started to cross the tracks In the
west yard, where n string Of some
twenty cars was switching. The at
tention of the train crew was at
tracted first by his dog, and then by
the boys cries for help. Fastening 10
his aid the men found HIM terribly
injured, his left arm and leg being
severed from his body. Two cars
had evidently passed over him.
His father heard that an accidel.
had occurred and hurried to IN"
scene to lind mis- own son to be the
victim. The ambulance was summon

A Learned Russian Baby.

william Lyon Phelps tells this story
about Robert Louis Stevenson as Illus
trating the cosmopolitanlsm of Rus
sian character, which Professor Phelps
says Is unaccountable In a measure
for the international effect and inffu-
ence of Russian novels. Stevenson,
writing from Mentone to his mother,
Jan. I, 1874, said: I'VE have two lit
tie Russian girls, with the youngest of
whom, a little polyglot button Of a
th~ree-year-old, 1 had the most laugha-
bic little scene at lunch today. She
said something In Italian which made
everybody laugh very much. After
some examination she announced en-
~phatlcaily to the whole table In Ger
man that I was a madchen. This
hasty conclusion as to my sex she was
led afterward to revise, but her new
opinion was announced In a language
quite unknown to me and probably
Russian. To complete the scroll of
her accomplishments she said goodby
to me In very commemorate English"
Three days later Stevenson added:
1.-The little Russian kid is only two
and a half. She speaks six Ian
RJlages."

The cashier of a bank which has
many women depositors, in speaking of
these customers, said that the stock
stories about overdrawn accounts and
ignorance as to bank methods bad be
come pointless. Whatever may have
been the case before, women give
banks no more trouble now than men.
"The woman who insists on drawing
money when her balance has been ex-
hausted because there are still blank
checks In her book has disappeared.
and in her place we have a woman
who wants interest on her money and
who knows what call money means"
said the cashier. Referring to the
old kind he added: "One day we did
have q real case. A woman rushed in,
said she had Just figured up her &c
count and found she was $500 short.
Husband away-no other ~money-what
could she do? She had brought Jewels
to leave rs collateral security till he
returned, and then we looked up the
matter and found she had over $500 to
her credit."-New York Tribune.

ImpaIino the Wild Boar,

In Germany the boar hunt occurs an
nually. Trained hounds are held In
leash until the lair Of the bears is sniff
ed, and then they are let go. OF rush
the bristling beasts. They run fast,
and the faster they skip along the wild
er and "madder" they get Sometimes
they are shot, but the correct style of
killing Is to use a long spear or a short
swordlike knife. The hunter spies his
boarship speeding along in an almost
straight line, blinded with rage and
ferocity. Bending over sideways to the
earth, the sportsman thrusts his spear
dull end downward In the soil and the
sharp point slanting upward and turn
ed directly to the boar's path. Straight
on the wild hog rushes, and with all
the impetus of his long fight he plunges
upon the spear point and there, impaled,
dies a bloody death.

A Danca Without Smile.

They nave a singular kind of nasas
conducted on the greens Of country
villages In Russia. The dancers stand
apart, a knot of young men here, a
knot of maidens there, each sex by IT
self and silent as a crowd Of mutes.
A piper breaks into a tune. A youth
pulls off his cap and challenges his
girl with q wave and a bow. If the
girl Is willing she waves her handker-
chief In token OF assent. The youth
advances, takes a corner Of the hand
kerchief In his hand and leads his
lassie round and round. No word is
spoken, and no laugh is heard. Stiff
with cords and rich with braids, the
girl moves heavily by herself, going
round and round and never allowing
her partner to touch her hand. The
pipe goes droning on for hours in the
same sad key and measure, and the
prize of merit in this "circling," as
the dance is called, is given by spec
tators to the lassie who In all that
summer revelry has never spoken and
never smiled.

Wanted More Converts.

Southey In his life Of Wesley relates
the following whimsical incident. He
states that some of the opponents of
these religionists In the excess of zeal
against enthusiasm took up a whole
wagon load of Methodists and carried
them before a Justice. When they
were asked what these persons had
done there was an awkward silence.
At last one of the accusers said,
why, they pretend to be better than
other people, and, besides, they pray
from morning TIL night"
The magistrate asked If they had
done nothing else.
Yes, SIR" an old man said. ANT
please your worship, they have con-
verted my wife. Till she went among
them she had such a tongue, and now
she is is quiet as a lamb"
Garry them back; carry them back"
the magistrate said, "and let them
convert all the scolds in the town."

The Danish Sociable Athletic Club
are making earnest efforts to have
the next annual turn fest" under
the auspices of the International AS

complished athlete, and gave a laud-
able exhibition In turning on the
bars and horse. The other members
of the local team were: Peter Han
sen, Marno Hansen, Thomas Petersen
Charles Hove and Martin Martinu-
sen. William Hansen accompanied
the boys.
Twenty thousand people saw the
