COLD WEATHER IS ItUSSIA.

Fatal Consequences to Creatures and Human Beings. The cold in St. Petersburg, says a correspondents is at times too intense for any outdoor amusement. Last year, for example, a brilliant fete on the ice had to be put off three or four times in succession oaring to the cold, the thermometer registering no less than 25.6 degrees below zero (Jb'ahreaheit). It is on days like these that one realizes what a northern winter is generally supposed to be, when all schools are closed, the university unvisited bv pro

fessors and students, and the churches literally empty. Generally spealdng, when the cold is so intense as 25.6 degrees there is little or no wind. This is fortunate for those unhappy people whom duty or misfortune obliges to be out of doors, for on a day lite that the faintest breeze that ever spread its wings would prove sharper than a razor's blade, and mayhap quite as dangerous. As a rule, however, the day is calm, the air perfectly still, and the vault of heaven of a delightful blue. At such times I have occasionally seen and more frequently heard of birds in the air suddenly stopping in their flight and dropping down like stones, rigid and cold to the earth below. I have also come across a far more painful sight men and horses whose earthly career had been similarly put an end to. This is often the case with cardrivers. Of course, the carmen often drop off asleep during the weary hours of the night while waiting for the fare that never comes, and when the thermometer is at 25 degrees below zero, sleep invariably merges into death. Well meant efforts are perseveringly made to keep these unfortunate men from being mortally frozen. Immense fires, for example, like the funeral pyres of old, are lighted in all the frequented streets, and kept burning night and day, the red glow of the coal and wood lire forming a charming contrast to the white glistening sheet of snow, especially when twilight, the "parent of dim enchantments," heralds in the night. But, in spite of all precautions, every winter a large number of izvogch.tscfci.ks are found frozen in their droschkie" by shivering policemen themselves but a few removes from death's door. Naturally people try to keep within doors when the mercury gets below 20 degrees, for, in spite of their northern climate, educated Russians are incomparably more sensitive to the cold than we are. This, of course, is the - inevitable result of the enervating training they receive. Brought up, as they are. in houses built with a special eye to warmth, and in rooms heated by Cyclopean stoves, which maintain a temperature varying from 66 to 77 degrees Fahrenheit, once they sally forth from these hot houses in winter they are wrapped up in furs, goats' hair kerchiefs, and other articles of apparel to such an extent that their own mothers would no t4 recognize them. There is, however, one absurd idea in connection with a Russian, winter, set afloat, I believe, by De Maistre, which should be exploded once fcr all. I allude to the alleged frequency with which a perfect stranger, generally a peasant;, will sidle up to an unsuspecting passer-by, and snatching up a handful of fine "snow, will set to work without a word of warning and scrub his cheeks and rub and pull his nose till they have changed their white color for a ruddier hue, which would le very embarrassing if it only lasted. Now, I have spent many winters in this country, and had favorable opportunities for observing exciting incidents of this kind, if they occurred, yet I have never once seen anything answering to the description, nor met a man who had.

Good Advice from a Good Judge. At this season of the year the following advice to girl graduates from our staid and solemn contemporary, Judge, is very pertinent : Always tie your essay with blue ribbon. Do not read an original poem on "Life. The subject is a well-worn one. Always send your graduating essay to the papers with stamps inclosed for its return. Do not praise Shakspeare too much. You may make some living author jealous. Always cry when you bid adieu to your teacher, but never say that you are shedding tears of joy. Do not open your address with "Dear friends, because your dearest friend in the audience might feel hurt. Do not go into raptures over Byron's poetry. His poems have already been outdone by several female poets. A good class motto might be copied from the obelisk, then nobody, not even yourself, will know what it means. Always speak of your alma mater in subdued tones. Most people think an alma is a sort of untamed maidenlady teacher. State that you intend to go abroad very soon, and take a trip to Hoboken the first chance you get. That will cure you of all desire to travel Do not imagine that you will be engaged inside of a year after graduating. Most men like to wait until the school polish has worn off a little. Blush becomingly as you make your bow and you will be applauded at once. People on such occasons would applaud if you had a fit on the stage. It is not well to make too startling an address, for people will put you down as stron g-m; nded, and the youths of to-day are afraid of strong-minded maidens. When you give the class kiss on the stage at parting, aways be sure that you can be heard in all portions of the room. This creates a little pleasant feeling. Bopeways Nearly 300 aerial ropeways are said to be now in operation for various purposes, with lengths from 100 yards to several miles. They have spans reaching as much as 1,000 feet, grades as great as one in three, and a carrying capacity from 5,000 tons per week to tw? or three times as much, according to whether the line uses one, two, or tiro systems of fixed ropes.

Strong, endless wire ropes are fixed to poles to sustain the buckets, which are hauled by smaller endless roptis kept in motion by stationary engir.os. A ropeway at the GotW;ogen coll iery, in Upper Silesia, carries tha coal about one and three-fourths miles, transporting 700 tons per day in loads of ton cwt. A ropeway nearly ten miles long has just been opened from an otherwise inaccessible Spanish mine to the coast, and a ropeway in Belgium transports from the mines direct to the top of the blast furnaces 2,000 tons of iron ore per day of twenty hours. Wedlock Among the Arabs. When a Mongeart of the tribo which inhabit the Sahara is desirous of undertaking the care of a family, he pitches upon the girl that pleacs him the most and asks her of her father without further formality; nor can the latter refuse her, unless the mau who pretends to her hand has done something contrary, to the laws of the nation. The girl is conducted by her parents to the tent of her future husband, where there is always an abundant repast prepared for the ceremony. Presents are made to the father; but if the son-in-law be poor, his wiff's family assist him, and furnish him with the means of increasing his flocks; if, on the contrary, he be rich, and the father poor, he supports the whole family in his own tent. The employment of the wifo thus married is to prepare the food; to spin the goats and camels5 hair, of which the tents are made ; to milk the cattle ; to pick up the necessary supply o wood for the night; and when the hour of repast is come, to wait upon her husband. She then eats by herself w hathas been left by him and his male slaves. She is, indeed, in no great danger of having a rival brought into the family; for, though polygamy be allowed by Ms religion, the poverty of the Mongeart generally prevents him from taking a plurality of wives. She is, however, liable to bedis'orced at will when she does not bear bovs ; but if she have the good fortune to have one or more male children, her husband's regard for her is inconceivable. She has no longer a divorce to fear, has an absolute authority in the tent, and passes her whole time in con ersanon, sleej), or dancing, as she thinks fit. The captive negresses do all her work, and are no longer assisted in their labor bv the Arab's wife. When a woman is not agreeable to her husband, or when he is disagreeable to her, they have it in their power to part. The formality in this case consists in the wife returning to he:? parents. If the husband be attached to her, he goes thither in quest of her; but if she persists in refusing to return, she is free, and at liberty to marry another. If, however, she have had a child, especially a boy, she has not the same privileges. In that case, if her retreat should last more than ten days it might be punished with death. When a man among the Monearts beats his wife, it is a sure sign that he is sincerely attached to her, and that he does not mean to part with her. Philadelphia Saturday Right The Demijohn Disappeared, As an afternoon train on the Erie Railroad was about to start from Jersey City a stout, red-faced, jolly looking man took his seat, smiled pleasantly upon the few passengers who were in the car, and set a gallon deioijohn down beside him. Two thin elderly ladies with severe faces, sat direct -Iv behind him, and the seats adjacent,on both sides of the aisle, were unoccupied. If anyone had entertained a doubt as to the position of the ladies on the temperance question, the uncertainty would have vanished as one of them leaned forward, and, tapping the stout man on the shoulder while she pointed at the demijohn, said: "My friend, do you know what is in that?" "Certainly, ma'am," replied tin stout man, pleasantly. "California brandy. Just bought it to put me over Sunday." "There is ruin to body and soul in that accursed bottle," said tho lady sternlv. "I wish you women would mind your own affairs," petulantly replied the stout man. "Confine yourselves to tea-making. That is your province." Nothing more was said, 'for the train at that moment entered the Ilergen tunnel. The stout man closed his window to shut out the smoke-laden air, but the ladies left theirs open. There were dim lights in the car, but it was very gloomy. The stout man pressed his nose against the glass, apparently trying to see the wall of the tunnel through the dense darkness outside. When the train flashed again into day the demijohn was gone ! The ladies, clearly, -were not hiding it, for it was not an article to be easily concealed, and, as far as its irantic owner could judge, nobody eke had taken it. He was still hunting despairingly for it when the train stopped at his station, and he was obliged to get out. Then the ladies smiled at each other, as though they knew something about its disappearance. New York Sun. The first bridges were of wood, and the earliest of wrhich we have noy account was built in Rome, 500 years B. C. The next was erected by Julius Caesar for the passage of his army across the Rhine. Trajan's great bridge over the Danube, 4,770 feet long, was made of timber, with stone piers. The Romans also built the first stone bridge, which crossed the Tiber. Suspension bridges are of a remote origin. A Chinese one mentioned by Kirchen was made of chains supporting a roadway 880 feet in length, was bruit A. D. 65, and is still to be seen. The first large iron bridge was erected over the Severn in 1777. The age of railways has brought a remarkable development in this branch of engineer

ing, especially in the construction of bridges of iron and steel. New York Mail and Express. Lot's wife was the first to suffer by a salt trust.

RAT SKINS FOR GLOVES.

Manufacturers Claim Hint They Are Never Used for Such Purpose. Wo are still being trught to feel what respect we can for rats, on account of their skins being used, very largely used, for gloves. This venerable fiction was revived lately in the correspondence columns of a lively contemporary, and was at once contradicted by a practical glover at (irenoblo, principally on the score that rat skins were not large enough for the purpose Still the statement was adhered to, objection being taken that not one but istdny skins might be used in making one pair of gloves. The Grenoble workman wrote again, saying that 30,000 skins passed annually throrgh his hands, so that ho had some authority to speak upon the subject, and he protested that, to a practical man, the tiling was quite absurd, and, for another thing, the skins were not only not valuable because of being so small, but were actually too thin to be of any value. Still tile statement was maintained, and the testimony of two authorita tive works on natural history and three encyclopedias all, we suppose, unanimous in affirming that rat skins are very largely used in glovemaking was triumphantly appealed to, although, by the way, the titles of these volumes were not quoted. It is of no use to put up encyclopedias or works on natural history as a defense upon a point of manufacture when peoplo actually engaged in the work assault them with a Hat denial, says the Draper' a Trade Journal Rats are very interesting in narratives of animal sagacity, which is as near an acquaintance with rhemas most people desire, and their skins, like those of moles, are delicate to a degree, and the nap delightfully soft and line. Mole skins made lino waistcoats, and have been made up, with some perseverance, into mantles for ladies, and doubtless rat skins might, with considerable pains, be similarly utilized. There was. some years ago, an ingenious individual of Iskeard, Cornwall, "who exhibited himself in a dress composed from top to toe of rat skins, which he had been collecting for three years and a half. The dress was made entirely by himself; it consisted of hat, neckerchief, coat, waistcoat, trousers tippet, gaiters and shoes. The number of rats required to complete the suit was 070. The tippet or boa was composed of the pieces of skin immediately round the tail of the rats, and was a very curious part of the dress, containing about six hundred tails, and those none of the shortest." This proves the possibilities of rat skins, but very remote possibilities for all that. Gloves mav have been so made as curiosities, but not commerciallv. "We meet with statements in books to the effect that rat hunts are regularly held in Paris sewers, and the privilege of gathering the slaughtered animals on these days sold by the authorities, but the Prefect of the Seine knew nothing about it, and wrote to S. William Beck saving so. We have statements, also, both in books and papers, that rat hides are generally used in making the thumbs or thumbgussets of kid gloves, and we have our largest glove manufactures quite tinaware of the circumstance. Hard facts against book statements which win? A Mean Trick by a iuean Free Lunch Fiend. "The meanest game that was ever worked on me," said the proprietor of an Ann street chop house, "was the job of a blooming bloke that used to come in here for soup. "The first time he came in," proceeded the chop man, ''he motioned me over to the table where he was eating, and directing my attention to a spicier that had dropped into his plate, said in a very gentlemanly M ay : " 'This cuss has taken possession of my dinner.' "I yanked the plate away and of course brought him another, with due apologies. As he laid down his nickel on going out he said I needn't worry about the little incident, as he used to keep a hotel himself and fully appreciated how impossible it was to avoid such things. As for himself, he wouldn't give it a second thought. I was afraid I had lost him, but he was back in a day or two, and darn my ribs if the same thing didn't hajpen again. I was mortified half to death. I got him another nice plate of soup and ad ded some cheese and crackers and a nice pickle or two by way of making amends ! "Well, sir, that blamed luck happened xight along every time that man came in. He called me several times to change his soup, and then he called on all the waiters in succession dav by day until he had got round the whole gang of us. At last we began to suspect something wrong and watched the cuss, and blast my eyes if we didn't catch him taking the spider out of a little paper box that he carried in his pocket and deliberately dropped it into his plate after he had eaten nearly all the soup. In this way he managed to get two plates of soup by paying for one. "Maybe we didn't bounce the spider man good and hard! Oh, I reckon not! Ask the boys!" New York World, What She Liked, The simple truth has a charm all its own, and is sometimes quite as likely to awaken a smile as the most profound witticism. "Well, Annie, do you like going to school ?" asked a visitor of an amiable girl who had never been famous for devotion to her books. "Yes," said Annie, hesitatinglv, after

some consideration, "I really think I like it very well." "That's good. And why do you like it?" "Well, there are so many pleasant things about it," said Annie, witii a smile over remembered joys. "Walking to the school-house in the morning.

Junius Elzevir Srroarffs. A tall, slim, imiooth-faced young man with long hair and a faded black suit, walked into Texas Sifting 8 office recently, laid his hat on the business manager's desk, smootiied back his hair, cleared his throat and said, impressively : "My "name is Junius Elzevir Scroggs." "Glad to know you, Mr. Scroggs," said the Sifting 8 man. "I am one of the literati,' " said Mr. Scroggs; "I have delvod into many quaint and curious volumes of ancient lore, drank deep at the iount of knowledge, sipped ambrosia with the Muses, and I am seeking for a paper to edit." "Our editorial staff is complete," replied the Sifting $ boomer. "Complete! Have you a man on your staff who knows Homer like a sucking colt knows its dam? Have yon a man who is as familiar with Aristotle as though they had boih slept in the same bed? Have vou a man on this a much vaunted staff of yours who knows the Huns and Vandals like the groundhog knows its lair? If not, tell me not that your staff is complete." "Texas Sifting s is hardly the kind of a paper you are looking for," said the business manager. "Our readers care but little for Huns and Vandals and ancient lore." "Your readers!" said Mr. Scroggs, with withering scorn; "and are you base enough to trail the proud banner of your journal in the dust to please a few paltry readers? Will you spurn genius to worship base coin ? Think of the unborn millions vet to come; think of the youth of our land whose minds are being polluted by a corrupt and mercenary press, ai d prate to me not of your readers. Make a paper ringing with thoughts sublime ; let your pages be filled with ;.icms garnered from the knowledge of ;he rich centuries that have winded their wav to the shadow-land of the past; care not for the ignoble present but look for your fame in the unborn ages, when, freed from the gross selfishness and petty aims of this benighted time, mankind will call you " "Good dav, Mr. Scroggs." "Sir?" "I said good day." "Do vou mean that vou desire me to depart?" said Scroqgs. "That's about the size of it," said the

future shall usher in the glad Millennium we shall be pleased to have you come around and lecture to us, but at present we are keerriiuj in mind the legend printed on yonder card, which savs : This is our busv dav,' and we will have to excuse vou," Then Junius E. Scroggs smole a wan, sad smile and once more mingled with an unappreciative world. V. Z. lieed, in Texas lifting s. Hale and Hearty in Old Age.

A few mornings ago some of the residents on the lower part of Broadway were attracted by the frightened notes of several robins which were making a great outcry iu a neighboring orchard. On investigation it was found that a cat had invaded the nest of a pcir of robins and M as doing her best to make a meal off the young birds. The mother bird had displayed considerable generalship, for, leaving her mate to keep the attention of the cat from the nest, she had flown away in search of aid, and was now returning with a small army of redbreasts to render assistance. The army fell to work. At first the cat held her ground bravely, but as the birds kept circling nearer and nearer, and pecking sharper and sharper, pussy was obliged to retreat ignominiously defeated, and the family was saved.

Aft Enlightenesl East Indian Tho Hon. Sayd Mohammed Hadi, the distinguished East Indian vlio received so many social attentions during his visit in Philadelphia early in the year, has loft Paris to return to India. He came here as a representative of a native educational society for tho purpose of arranging for the reception of East Indian apprentices and students in our own manufactories and technical schools, Fnglish workshops being practically -ed to these ambitious pupils. Almost before lie had completed his mission he received instructions from the Indian Government to proceed to Paris to enter Pasteur's laboratory, where the applications for admission are so numerous that M. Pasteur is compelled to decline foreign students unless officially indorsed by their governments. Mr. Hadi relates an amusing experience he had while in Philadelphia. Going out on Chestnut street on New Year's day, wearing his tuiban and native dress, he was surrounded by a crowd of "New Year shooters," who mistook him for a fellow-masker, and were as much astonished by his unwillingness to join in their celebration as he was by their extraordinary behavior. He returns to his home at Sultanpur, in the State of Oudh, and will no doubt receive some appointment undar the Government which will enable him to carry out some of his cherished designs for the improvement and education of his countrymen. Philadelphia Enquirer. General Hooker's White Charger. "Speaking of war horses," said Joe Dickinson, late Adjutant General on General Joe Hooker's staff, ''do any of you remember the magnificent white ( harper that Hooker rode at Chancellorsville? Well, that horse had a history. Ke was discovered by one of Sickles' men in a patch of pines not far from Good Hope Hill, Md., where his master had hidden him. And he was presented to Dan Sickles. He was a pure-bred Arabian and the handsomest parade horse in the army. A negro led the soldier to the spot where the horse was concealed, and the master of the horse also owned the negro. The OAvner of the horse soon di covered his whereabouts, and armed with proof of lovaltv went to Seerefcarv Stanton, who ordered the horse returned. But the latter bv this time Lad disappeared. As a matter of fact, he passed into Hooker's hands, and although considerable trouble was made for Sickles and Hooker, the Arabian remained in the Federal service." &L Louis Republic, Maky industries having been established in the South, particularly at the rapidly growing city of Florence, Ala., the Chicago and Eastern Illinois O'.vansviile Route) has decided to run five j ersonulty conducted excursion trains as foil v.s: Aujrust 6 aid 20, Sept, 10 and 24, and Oct. & All the railroads in the Northwest have aroei to sell for those dates excursion tickets to points n Tennessee, Alabamn.
