On the ereat of the slope, where the trees olnstarad the thickest, a high wooden roof was visible, shining in the moonlight, and from behind the foiiage the ruddy light of a lamp-lit window east slanting ray into the silvery night The ray of light was the only trace af human life. Not a sound eame to Aiatwrh it except those voices of the night which in themselves seem to farm a part of silenoe the chirping of the eriekets, the frogs1 choir chanting their evening song in the reeds below, the sleepy bark of a dog in the distawec. A peaceful repose seemed to have spread over the earth, bidding Nat to ail troubled, aching hearts, peace to ail hatred and strife. And yet the man who paced up and dawn the short gravel walk in front of nbe house hardly fete the influence of nai peaceful scene. His step was ttouuled and unsteady, and though his deportment, evidently through long habit, was as stiff and rigid as that of a soldier pacing the parade ground, yat the head, covered with snowy white heir, was bowed low on his breast The Angers of his clasped hands worked nervously and occasionally a aupfireoned exclamation or a heavy, hall-subdued sigh issued from between aba rmly-et lips, with the thick, bushy white mustache ovamhadowug The martial figure of this old man was well known throughout the whole prorince of GoHava, and whenever General SaveKeff, or "the old General," as he was familiarly called, appeared he was gladly and respectfully greeted by every one, without distinctton of age, of class or of position. Peasant or noble, young or old, all felt am instinctive respect for him, all eame tmdar the influence of that peculiar atmosphere with which an honest life, a straightforward nature surround old aga, winning the hearts of the honest and awing knaves into respect. After resigning nis position in the army at the close of the Crimean war General Savelieff retired on his small estate as poor a man as when he entered the Government service, and resolutely tefased to accept any other office. "I am too old for these times," be used to answer. 'My Emperor is dead (he meant the tnpcror Fiebolae), and I do not understand all your new ways and reforms." Military discipline and the will of the Caar, when h considered as being an emanation of the will of God on earth, bad been the only jrnidmg principles of his whole lifsv Benevolent towards all, indulgent for all faults and shortcomings, on these two points he was mitfmchingly severe. "A foe of the Caar is a foe of God," he was wont to ay. When in 1847 he had to superintend the execution of a so-called kHtieal criminal a cnild nineteen years aid he prepared himself for the task as for a holy sacrifice, and went to the communion on the eve of the bloody amy. On the other hand, this rigid, fanatical loyalty did not in the least impair bis naturally honest, straightforward, benevolent disposition. The Mr of his jwrish venerated him and even his enemies could not help respecting the character of a man whom they haled as top ready tool of a brutal tyranny. He had married young the woman he had mred when yet a school-boy. Mrht years their union remained emfWeea. When nt length in 1847 a MM, a boy, was born, the father's joy knew a bounds, but was of short dufor a few weeks after the event lotherdied.

For him the Caar was still the father of his people, the ordained and hallowed representative of God on If sadism to any, he had educated his son in precisely the same weed. From his tenderest infancy Aadroeaa had been isolated from the outward world and lived with but father a curious life of the past the life of an old man, not looking forward into the aaaallng uncertainty of th future, but seekinr in the remembrance of the past nil that is Bood. sacred and iovfuL The bov grew up behind a Chfaiese wall apart from all th ioyful excitement, the busy unroar of his Meneration, "baavilv la den," as the great Russian poet Lermonton wtys, 'wlta Ute noary wisaom of im sires.' When Anurusha was fourteen years of ace his father brought him to &t Petersburg to the Corps des Pages, the first military school of the Empire. On taking leave of his son in the recap-tion-room of the school the General for the first time in his life betrayed some weakness. He clasped Andnuha in his arms and whispered: "Be a good no', beoome an nonest soutier: remoni her you have got an old father whose life vou hokl in your hand. If you should ever bring shame on our name I shall die." The boy felt two heavy, burning team fail on his brow, and be wildered. amaaed bv this unexpected outburst of a feeling be hd hardly suspected, he threw both hii arms around his father and broke out into fit of wild, uncontrollable sobbing, All the passion,' ail the love which had been hitherto chilled in his young heart by his lathers repulsive severity, seemed at that moment to stream out at once, shaking his body from head to foot and mingled with a half-conscious feeling of pity lor aiinsell, for nis com, bleak child iiootf. And thus father and son parted. Burinr the four rears of his studies Andrtteba but rarely saw his father. The journey to Poltava was a long one. The net of railroads which now connects the South of Russia with the capital did not exist even in the wildest dreams of a loyal subject of the uanr. Traveling was slow and expensive and ueneral Savelteff's fortune less than modest When at length at the end of his studies, which he accomplished brilliantly, the young artillery officer, Andrei lvanovilch Savelieff, came to pass the long vacation with his father in the small country house of Poltava, the latter was deeply struck with the change in the appearance and temper of his son. instead of a merry, somewtiat silent but healthy and blooming boy there sprang out of the perekladnaya (mall cart) the General had awaited with such throbbing impatience, an earnest' pale man, with a nervously axpressive, deeply-marked face, with a fiery, piercing and unflinching gaae one of tnose Toung laces, only to oe found among the Russian generation of to-day, a lace telling a tale of deep thought of premature suffering and of a great tormenting love. And the bora tamper was chattered tod. Of his former awe, mingled with an Impulsive tenderness towards nis fewer no trace was to be found. He met the latter respectfully, but with a certain mien of independence and manly dignity which struck the old General with utter amasement though it pleased him on the other hand to find in his son something akin to his own iron nature. They met no mare like father and son, but like two soldier friends, one younger than the other, but both hardened in great battle of life. It was, however, precisely this resemblance in both their natures that brought them further apart than ever. Both were not slow in detecting that they had no interest no idea, no aim in life in common with each other. While the son was hardly able to answer correctly all his father's queries about the whereabouts of this or that General, the newest patterns of uniforms, or the most recent events in the Hfe of the Imperial family, the father felt but little interest and showed still loss understanding for the young officer's erudite explanations of 'the newest improvement in artillery or the projected reforms in the military adminktratioa. Besides, the son had other studies which engrossed him, other books, not treatises on artillery, which he read without ever showing them to his father. Once the latter, coming unexpectedly into his son's room, saw the tittes of two of these books, "The Life and Writings of Ferdinand .Lasaalle" and "Commentaries on John Stuart Mill's Political Economy." Both names were naturally unknown to him, and Ute name of Tchernyshevskr, the cele brated Russian Socialist being not printed on the last named book, the brave old General retained no other impression from that incident than that his son. though a capital soldier, was somewhat of a bookworm. In autumn Andrusha returned to St Petersburg and entered the. military academy. He passed rapidly one grade of tue military career after uie omer, was in 1870 promoted Cantata, the ShJjpkft Pass affair, during whieh the Youusr artillery officer rendered signal services, bringrmg him the diraity of Colonel and the grand cross of the St. George Order. At the same time his name became wildly known in scientific circles. Ho became editor of one of the best military reviews of. St Peteratmrg. and his bouse was the ntheting-plaoe of the best and ablest representatives ot otvn as wen as new tary intelligent oirehm. Thus years went on.

Then eame the eulminaung point the revolutionary bon-or the Win! of revolutionary bon-or the Winter Palace explosion. The old General's indignation anew no bounds. At toe same time a strange, apparently ground lose feeling of anxiety for his son, from whom he had not reoeived any letters for some time, seised est hint. "I am growing old," he wrote to Andre, "and would, like to see you. perhaps for the last time. Trv to sret leave of absence and spend a oouple of monttts wiui Tbe son had obeyed the father's wish. And this night the 16th of May, he had arrived at Dubrovka this was the name of the savelieff estate. The same postilion who had brought him from the nearest railway station was also the bearer of a letter for the ueneral. lite latter, however, more touched and agitated by the meeting wun "is cnild" (.as ne still called ute bearded Colonel) than he cared to show, put the letter mechanically into his pocket without looking at it and then forgot all about it Long after miuntght lather ana son having emptied a couple of bottles of champagne. of which the old General had always a small supply in his cellar, both retired to rest On entering his bedroom. where his old orderly Matveitch awaited hint, the General remembered the .letter, ana, drawing the lamp nearer to where he stood, broke the seal. lie first read the signature: "Anton Pod bielsky." His brows contracted as if s painful recollection had east a shadow over them. "What business has that man to write to meP" he muttered, Podbielsky was a Polish nobleman, who had formerly been the General's school mate. As a very voting man he had been implicated in the great Polish in surreetion of 1880, and had purchased his pardon from the Russian Govern meat by betraying some of his asso ciates. Since that time General Save lieff, who hated all traitors, even ther had rendered eervioe to the good cause, had broken off all relations with Pod bielsky, while the latter, rising rap idly, soon resetted a prominent and in fluential position in the newly-formed Third ."Section, " or secret police. Jow he was a chief of the chancery of that dreaded institution, and, moreover, specially intrusted with the investiga tion of the Winter Palace explosion. rvt . - . 1 nat man wrote as iouows: " Dkak GaxiKAi RMmbefin- our for mer reteUoae, allow ate to address a word of earaMt waralas to you. Your too baa been leuae to be tmpUeatai ia tae ease of tae synataft ossloaioa I am aw The old man read no further. With a terrible oath, his face nurale with in dignauon, he sprang up and threw the jeuer to tae ground. "A lie, an iniamons uer- ae exclaimed. "Tour Excellency," whispered the terrified Matveitoh, "what ie the matter?" "Nothing. Leave me!" The old servant went out shaking has head sorrowfully. On remaining alone the General's first impulse was to burn the letter without reading it On considering, however, the position Pod bielsky occupied and the responsibility be in curred by writing snob a communica tion, savelieff soon convinced himself that the letter contained more than an empty threat or an utterly groundless calumny. He picked up the paper with trembling band and read on: 1lMreM,alas! ao aoaalbie dowbc as to bb) guilt.

Panting for breath, his broad chest hearing with an uncontrollable agitation, the General read these lines to their bitter end- The close air of the room suffocated him.

" A few hours,?' he mutters, moment these people may come and take him away. 1 must, I must speak to him, hear of him that be. is innocent" Having formed this resolution the General raised his head and walked back into the house with a firm step. There was still a light in hie sou's room when he knocked at the dooc, The young Colonel opened at once and on seemg fin) iKttrai h wiww w nance exclaimed: "What is the matter, father?'

ITsrW. OCEAN WONDERS. The sea occupies throe-fifths of tut surface of the earth. At the depth ot about 3,500 feet waves are not felt The temperature is the same, varying only a trifle from the ice of the pole to the burning sun of too equator. A mile down the water has, a preaaure of over a ton to the square inch. If a box six feet deep were filled with sea wa ter and allowed to evaporate unaer tue sun, there would be two inches of salt left on the bottom. Taking the average depth of the, ocean to be three miles, there would be a layer of pure salt 390 feet thick on the bed. of the Atlantic. The water is colder at the bottom than at the surface. In the many bays on the coast of Norway the water often freeeee at the bottom before it does above. Waves are very deceptive. To look at them in a. storm one would think the water traveled. The water stay in the same place, but the motion goes on. Sometimes in storms these waves are forty feet high, and travel fifty miles an hour more than twice as fast as the swiftest steamer. The dfetance from valley to valley Is generally fifteen times the height hence a wave five feet high will extend over seventy-five feet of water. The force of the sea dashing on Bell Rock is said to be fifteen tons for each square yard. Evaporation is a wonderful power la drawing the water from the sea. Every year a layer of the entire sea, fourteen feet thick, is taken up into the elouds. The wind bears their burden into the land, aad the water comes down in .a . d..U . . rain upon the boms, so sow oacx at last through rivers. The depjh of the sea presents an interesting problem. If the Atlantic were kmered 6,&ft4 feet the distance from shore to shore would be half as great or 1,600 miles. If lowered a little more than three miles, say 19,880 feet, there would bo a road of dry land from Newfoundland to Ireland. This is the phmo en whieh the Euat AUantio cables are laid. The editerranean is comparatively shal low. A drying up of 640 foot would leave three different seas, and Africa would be joined to Italy. The British channel is more like a pond, which accounts for its ohoppy waves. It haa been found difficult to get correct soundings of the Aden tic A midshipman of the navy overcame the difficulty, and shot weighing thirty pounds carries dowa the Tina. A hole Is bored through the sinker, through which a rod of iron is passed, moving easily back and forth. In the end of the bat a cup is dugout nod the inside coated with lard. The bar is made fast to the line, and a sling holds the shot on. When the bar, which extends below the ball, touches the earth, the sling unhooks and the shot slides off. The lard in the end of the bar hold some of the sand; or whatever may be on the bottom, and ft drop shuts over the cup to keep the water from washing the sand out When the ground is reached, a shock k felt as if an electrx current had passed through the line.

He settled down nt a place called Biok'i Hollow and brought out the hVeeM i iSuWium. Right undem the head at put this motto ia large, square-! shouldered type: "Hero Shall the Press the People's Right Maintain; unawed by Influence and Uabribed by Gain." On another page he announced: "No Pent-up Utica Cootracts our Powers," "Policy is an Idol Principle a God." Founded by HL Junius Browne. Cordwood, Fresh Hay and other Country Produce taken the same as Cash. Junius ran the paper along during the summer and it began to look as if he would soon have to begin on a diet of mottoes. He was canvassing the prospect of roast motto on toasted fdaotude when the fall campaign slid in on the community. The PUmdium began to talk about the best men for the different offices when one day a candidate for county sheriff came in and said: "Mr. Browne, air you gom to support me for sheriff?" c, "Well, Mr. Snoosenberry, really I eduldn't say as yet you know the Palladium always supports the best man and I don't know either ef you." "Well, I'll admit I aiat the best man. the other feller is near onto fifty pounds heivier than me aad a hard hitter but Fm quicker on the draw..

"Call it tame, bnt that's the best 1 MB do." "Oh. weU that'll be all right I'm oonvinced you're the man for the place." So the PaWsaWiim poured out itt wrath on McDeadeye, the other candidate. MeDeadeye was an unfit man for the important office; MeDeadeye bad a record back in the States whieh 5ould ill bear tee searching calcium fbt of public investigation; and the worst of it was MeDeadeye couldn't get it But MeDeadeye did get It and iuooaenberry went where the weedbine climbeth. few days after MeDeadeye eame into the ofitoe of the ITeaUy Palladium and said: "Mr. Browne, I b'Heve you referred to my past record ht that Pttmal Wail uv youm?"

Mr. Browne, this is Mr. Colt who will address you for a few moments on the vital issues of the day!" Then he began to shoot When the first gun was empty he threw it at the printer who had crawled under the imposing stone and produced another, saying: "I have the pleasure uv iaterduoing to yer favorable notioe Mr. Smith-d-Wesson, the well-known tenor, who will entertain you with a little vocal musks!"
