REV. scHNAcKE ON TARRINe.

The Rev. L. C.. Schnacke, trustee OF
Was6bUun college who supplied the
pulpit of the. Central COngreg ational
church during the absence of DIR. C..
NJ. Sheldon, yesterday morning spoke
of the, Shady Bend "tarring' case, in
which band of men taITed and fea-
thered a girl He declared it a
disgrace to Kansas deeper than the
burning of a negro to Pennsylvania.
Rev. Schhacke talked on the sub
ject of Judging Others, and he as
serted the disgarceful attack ON this
girl at Shady Bend was the result of
the village gOsstps placing judg-
ment on the girl before there was
any foundation for their stories.
"The tarrfng of that young wo-
man is a, disgrace not only to the
community in which it could occur,
said Rev. Scfnacke, but tothe whole
state of Kansas, and DIT should be
deeply felt. 1t will take long to live
down such an actof barbariSm. Nor

ART IN ICE.
Wonderful Palace That Was Built by
Czarina Anne Of Russia.

Wonderful Palace That Was Built by
Czarina Anne of Russia.
The use Of ice for architectural pur.
poses is an art that has been carried
to high state Of perfection in north
ern countries, and some almost incred.
ible feats have been accomplished In
this curious branch of industry.
Probably the most remarkable build
ing constructed wholly of ice was the
palace built on the Neva by Czarina
Anne Of Russia in 1880. The first at.
tempt to construct this building was
unsuccessful, as the slabs of Ice were
too thin and the building collapsed In
the first thaw. Subsequently large
blocks Of ice were cut and squared
with great care and laid on one an
other by skillful masons. who cement
ed the joints with water, which imme-
diately froze. The building when COM
pleted was ffty-six feet long. seven.
teen and a half broad and twenty one
high. 1t was Of but one story. The
facade contained a door surmounted
by an ornamental pedlment and six
windows, the frames and panes Of
which were all Of ice. An elaborate
balustrade. adorned with statues. ran
along tie top of the facade, and an.
other balustrade surrounded the build
ing at the level Of the ground The side
entrances to the Enclosure were f1anked
with pillars supporting urns, the lat
ter containing orange trees. whose
branches, leaves and flowers were all
Of ice. Hollow pyramids Of ice on each
side Of the building contained lights
by night. The grounds were further
adorned with a life size figure Of an
elephant. with his mahOut on his back.
A stream Of water was thrown from
the elephants trunk by day and a
fame Of naphtha by night.
A tent Of ice contained a hot bath,
in which persons actually bathed.
There were also several cannons and
mortars Of ice. which were loaded with
bullets Of ice and iron and discharged.
The interior Of the building was COM
pletely furnished with tables. chairs.
statues. looking glasses, a clock. COM
plete tea service. ETC.. all made Of fee
and painted to initiate the real objects.
A bedchamber contained a state bed
with curtains. a dressing table with a
mirror, pillows. bedclothes. slippers and
nightcaps, all made Of ice. There
were ice candles burning naphtha and,
most wonderful of all, an ice fireplace
containing burning ice logs-i. e., blocks
Of Ice smeared with naphtha and then
kindled.-Scientific American.

The Doctors Fee,

There came a letup in the rush Of pa
ients, and the doctor opened two small
envelopes lying on his desk.
Its all right" be said. Il wasn't
sure. Without offending couldn't
open the envelopes in the presence Of
the persons who gave them to me.
They contain the fees left by two
Englishmen who called close on each
others heels. English etiquette is
rather embarrassing for a physician
who is used to patients who hand
over their money with the denomina'
ton right on top, American fashion
In England it would be considered an
insult to give a physician his fee un'
wrapped. You can't insult an Ameri'
can physician that way, but newcom'
ers credit him with an excess Of sen
sibility and give him good many un'
easy moments wondering II he hasn't
been underpaid. York Sun.
