The Ungainly Rusainn Sailor. A real sailorman has fingers bent tip like fishhooks from the lifelong habit of gripping things. The Russian sailor carries his hands like a soldier and cannot possibly be “handy.” A sailor’s gait ashore has a slight roll. This arises from the need at sea of keeping up the windward side of a rolling ship. And the rolling gait marks one of a sailor’s finest qualities —balance. Unless the body balances and poises to meet every motion of a ship the result is seasickness. Now, the Russian bluejacket does not roll in his gait ashore, but marches. Neither has he any sense of balancing at sea and seasickness in the Russian fleet is a source of actual weakness and danger. The Black sea squadron can only put to sea in the three calmest months of the summer, and the 50 called maneuvers take place ashore on the Kenai peninsula, consisting mainly of •battalion drill. One more trait of the real sailor is his self reliance, which makes him fit for facing emergencies single handed. But the Russian bluejacket has none of this. He is not a machine in himself, but only a little bit of a machine which cannot work without the other bits. He is huge in stature —a giant compared with our men—but in his winter overcoat it is impossible to distinguish him from a soldier. Unhandy, seasick and reliant only in drill discipline, he is utterly unfit for active service.—London Answers. Silent Brhlen. In Korea during the whole of the marriage day the bride must be as mute as a statue. If she says a word, or even makes a sign, she becomes an object of ridicule, and her silence must remain unbroken, even in her own room, though her husband should attempt to break it by taunts, jeers or coaxing, for the female servants are all on the watch for such a breach of etiquette as speech, hanging about the doors and chinks to catch up and repeat even a single utterance, which would cause her to lose caste forever in her circle. This custom of silence is observed with the greatest rigidity among the higher classes. It may be a week or several months before the husband knows the sound of his wife's voice, and even after that for a length of time she only opens her mouth for necessary speech. With the father-in-law the custom of silence is still more rigid, and the daughter-in-law often passes years without raising her eyes to his or addressing a word to him. in Bulgaria a month s silence is imposed on brides unless specially addressed by the husband.

Wanted iler Money’N Worth. Bridget Rafferty had served the best years of her life as a cook, and now that she was “wearin awa' ” and an operation became necessary she haughtily declined to go to a ward, but took one of the best rooms in the hospital. The operation was successful, but the patient was allowed very little food. During her convalescence she made frequent use of the electric bell at her bed. The nurse would fly to her, to be greeted with some trifling question or the remark, “I only wanted to know if you were there." As such frequent use of her bell suggested to the matron on that floor that the nurse was neglecting her patient, the nurse remonstrated, and received the following unique explanation: “Well, you see, miss, here I am paying S3O a week, and I’m not seeing anything, I’m not hearing anything, and, miss, I’m not eating anything. So I just ring the bell to get iny money’s worth, and, anyways, I enjoy hearing it ring. San Francisco Argonaut. Attached. “Yes, sir, I wuz once attached to the navy. ” “You! When did that happen?” “I wuzsittin on the dock fast asleep, an a gunboat come up an the fellow at the bow, mistakin me for a post, flung a rope over me.”—Cleveland Plain

FROM SICILY. Miss Hattie Studabaker Writes an Interesting Letter from the Metropolis of that Island. Descriptive Account of the most Fertile and Populous Island of the Mediterranean.— Many Interesting Notes of the Greek Trimacria. Syacuse, Sicily, Feb. 1. 1899. D. E. Studabaker, Decatur, Ind. | Dear Brother: While lam waiting ; a few minutes for dinner I will begin ' a letter to you. It is so hard to write | here. As soon as we have our breakj fast we start out sight seeing; go all day and some time in the evening. If we stay at home in the evenings our ■ rooms are too cold to sit up and write. I These ducal palaces (as most of the : hotels have been) with their marble I walls and tiled floors and no fires are about as desolate, cheerless and comfortless abodes as one can imagine. Then at night we are so tired, for sight seeing is such hard work. So you must all bear with us if we do not write as often as it might seem we could. It is hard to write at all. It is now after dinner and we are waiting for the boat to go to Malta, and as I have a few minutes before we start will write a bit more. M e left Naples Wednesday afternoon at five o’clock on an Italian boat “Gotardo.” It was small but neat and clean. The wind blew furiously and it was very rough. At dinner Miss Eaihy and I succumbed and each went to bed. If I had staid up I would have been sea sick, but as it was I was very comfortable and slept all night. Reached Messina Thursday at Ba. 111. It is a town of 100,000 i population, closely built of stone, with narrow streets. We saw’ many handsome people and the poor are not so miserable as in Naples. There it was dreadful. We were told the beggars of all Italy gathered into Naples and we thought it true. But somehow ’ every other place, except this (Syra cuse) seems to have its full quota. I guess the only difference is there are more in Naples. Well in Messina we were quartered in an old ducal palace, with marble stairways, lofty walls, musty rooms, a court-yard and fountains and plants, and cold comfort everywhere. Not one place in the house a fire. It is called the Hotel Victoria (or Vittoria) Beautiful to 1 look at, but dreary, though the food 1 was good. In the afternoon we took a short drive and stopped at the Duomo, an old church. Monday afternoon at sea on board the “Carlotta”, between Malta and Sicily. Just here Mrs. Bander came into my room and remained untill time for the boat, so I did not get to write any more. This is my first opportunity to resume. To go back to Messina. The old church had been partially destroyed by an earthquake in the 15th century and had been rebuilt. But some of the columns were Moorish and yet older. The columns and walls were mosaics in beautiful colors. The alter was very large and fine and of mosaic dating from the 15th century. That day was a special festival, the feast of the purification of the Virgin Mary, and at 6:30 we went to Vespers at another church, very fine. It had the mosaic columns, beautiful chandeliers and a grand alter with numberless candles. In all these churches there are no seats and the people kneel on the bare stone floors. In the body of the church are movable chairs where the women and older men sit. The others stand at the side. We paid two centimes each for a chair. We heard the real Civilian Vespers and the music was fine. First an orchestra played three pieces, then an organ solo and then a fine tenor singer sang with an organ accompaniment. The sweet music, the brilliant lights about the alter, the service in a strange tongue and the large congregation made it very interesting to us. But the people do not show the reverence they do in Catholic churches at home. Nearly all the time there were sounds of people talking to each other and | children moved abeut from place to 1 place. Friday morning we left Mes- ; sina by train, passing through orange groves, vineyards and villages. We soon came in sight of snow capped Mt. Etna. We saw hedges of stone, of cacti with geraniums growing among them, and walls of lava blocks. At noon our train stopped at Catania where we lunched and then went on to Syracuse. On the way we passed salt-beds where water from the sea is drawn into vats and evaporated for salt. Our ride all day was along the sea and the scenery was interesting and ever changing. Still when we got to Syracuse at 4:30 we were tin*d. The cars are not so comfortable as ours at home. You know how they

are arranged in compartments. Me had one compartment. Catania, Sicily. Tuesday night. The motion of the boat made my eves hurt and I had to stop writing. As this is a “continued story ’ iu many chapters I will go on but hope soon to write the conclusion. Saturday at ! Syracuse was such an interesting 1 day. I kept thinking of you all day and how I used to help you with your Latin. For it brought back ancient history and the Latin reader very forcibly. You remember Syracuse was a Greek colony. At one time it had a population of about 300,000, but now only about 30,000. You remember their wars with the Carthaginians and Romans and when the city was finally taken after a long seige, Archimedes was found calmly pursuing his studies. There is a bust statue of Archimedes on the plaza near the bay and a fine one of Garabaldi erected a few years ago by the city, Garabaldi is wonderfully popular, particularly in Sicily. Streets, fountains, statues all bear his name. Friday morning we drove out to the ruins of the old city. They are of stone. M e saw the ampitheatre and the theatre, cut out of solid rock, ruins of temples still stood. The pavement of the streets was worn into deep ruts by ancient chariot wheels. We visited the ancient quarries, very deep, now ojien to the air because "an earthquake had broken down the roof of stone. Three thousI and Carthaginians prisoners had been thrown down into the quarry and left to die, but on account of the plague the Syracusans, for their own safety, took out the remnant. Dyonnisius, the tyrant, had a passage in the form of a letter “S", very high constructed, that he might hear the whisper even of prisoners at the other end. The echo is perfect. We tried it repeatedly. Even a piece of paper dropped into the pool at our feet sent back as echo the faint sound made in falling. We were all greatly impressed. From there we drove to the Anapus river, famous in ancient mythology. Look up the history of Proser- • pina, (it is too long to write). We ' were rowed up the narrow river to the source, about two miles. It rises from a pool one hundred feet deep fed by springs. On the banks of the river grows the Papyrus, transplanted from Egpt. We got some of the stalks to bring home. In the afternoon we visited an old church, part of whose columns had been in a temple of Minerva. So you see we spent the day i amid classic surroundings. Oh, yes, ’ we also visited the fountain of Arethusal. (See Mythology.) Saturday night at 11 o'clock we left on the boat for Valetta, Island of Malta. Had a rough passage. Reached Malta Sunday at 8 a.m. Breakfasted and part of us went to church at Barracca Garrison church, a mission of the church of England. There were about 400 soldiers present and families of officers and ourselves. We enjoyed the service so much. There was an orchestra and choir of soldiers. The music was good and the congregation joined in heartily in the singing and , rest of the service. There are about , 10.000 troops at Valetta, so we saw ! redcoats all the time. At church I 1 saw an officer with Scotch plaid pant- ' aloons, big plaid as wide as your ' hand, white and green and some other 1 colors mixed. He probably belonged to some Highland regiment. But he looked funny, they were real tight, too. There were twenty-six English gun boats there Sunday, which we were told was the usual thing from November to May, as Malta is the head of the Mediterrenian service. In the afternoon we visited the church of St. John, built by the Knights. It is a fine old church, contains much mosaic work, fine statues and pictures. Over 400 of the Knights are buried under the church and each grave is covered by a marble slab bearing an inscription. Here is the main church and ten side chapels, one for each of the ten chapters of the Knights, divided according to their language. Monday morning we visited the Governor’s palace, formerly the palace of the Grand Chancellor of the Knights of St. John or Malta as they were called after they were expelled from I Rhodes and came to Malta. We were ; shown the armory, a long room filled | with suits of armour, spears, old cannon, etc. In cases they have preserved, the bill from the Pope conveying the original charter for founding the order of the Hospitalers of St. j John at Jerusalem, the decree banish- ! ing them from Rhodes, the trumpet which sounded the retreat from Rhodes, ; the deed by which Charles Vof Geri many made them a gift of the island !of Malta. In the council chamber i the walls were hung with tapestry, the gift of Louis XIV of France, costing 80,000 pounds. Besides the prison, occupation by the English, the former occupation by the Knights, the scene of the wreck and rescue of the Apostle Paul (in Book of the Acts, there called the Island of Melita) Malta is interesting also from its con nection with Napoleon. One of the first things you notice is the peculiar dress of the native women: all black with a strange black head dress. I have a photograph to show when I get home. It is said the women felt so deeply the indignities suffered during Napoleon’s three years occupation that they put on mourning and vowed to wear it one hundred years; the one hundred years was up last year but they still wear it. There are so many interesting things about Malta, but I must hurry on. At 2:00 p. 111. we left to return to Syracuse. Had a delightful voyage, reaching there at 10:00 p. m. Left at 10:00 this morning for Cantania over same road we passed over Friday. Today is the first day of the carnival here and the streets are full of people. But I think foreigners are a little uncommon here because we seemed to excite so much

> notice and sometimes amusement, though there were only six of us ual* ing about. Bellini, the muswal composer. was born in Cantania, and the ’ people are very proud of him. In a plaza on a prominent street ’ statue of Bellini, erected by his coun- ’ try. Public gardens nearby bear ms name. We went there. They are laid out on the side of a hill and are ' very pretty. A few weeks later when the flowers arc in full bloom they would br* beautiful. As it was a fete day a band was playing. Rather 1 should say an orchestra of forty musicians. We sat down a long time amt listened. Thev played the opera of “IlTrovatou Bellini” The music is sweet and they played it beautifully. Tomorrow we drive about Catania. In the afternoon return to Messina and the next day embark lor Alexandria. We are so anxious to get letters at Messina. I have had only one letter since leaving New Y ork and I am sure you have all written to me, but none of the rest have had but one mail so I suppose it is all waiting some where for us. This is a dreadful long letter, but it is for all the rest of the folks as well as you. W e had so many interruptions, too, it has been hard to write at all. We are real well. W rite and tell what you are all doing. Mrs. Allison is sound asleep. M ith lots of love to each one and much for yourself. Yours affectionately, Hattie Studabaker. The Dangerous Sta#e. The gentleman had rung the bell several times before the servant let him | in. He was looking surprised and a J trifle apprehensive when Mrs. Blykins came into the room. “I called,” he explained, "to inquire ' about your husband's health. He and I belong to the same organization, and several of the members desired me to call to see how he is getting along. We were very sorry to hear of his illness. “It’s very kind of you, ’ ’ she answered. Tljere was a crash which shook the chandelier. She paid no attention to it. “I think it will be only a day or two before he is able to get out and go down town,” she added. The slamming of doors echoed heavi- j ly through the house. “Has he been dangerously sick?” “Not until today. ” “But I understood you to say that he j was convalescent. "I think I may say that he is so. He wasn’t well enough to be dangerous till this morning. But before noon he had discharged the trained nurse, quarreled with the cook, smashed a rocking chair against which he had stubbed his toe and thrown the canary bird out of the , window. Those are always hopeful ■ symptoms with him. and I feel fairly justified in saying that he is convales- I cent.” —Washington .Star. . Legal Advertising. Notice of final settlement of ESTATE.
