”h. ppm: 01’ A VICTIM OF THE ”*‘ “wants or FORTUNE. Prince Mada Him Rich With 300 Rubles and Stalled the Notes in His Boots. It was at- tbc Czar’s coronation In Moscow that Dmitri the water carrier encountered the drama. of his life. The story has not; been published, for in Russia it is not, permitted to name living royal manage; in such circumstances. oreover Dmitri’s madness from the sudden possession of riches would not be a. very surprising thing to his countrymen, accus- tomed to the mind of the peasant, Writes a St. Petersburg corres- pendent. Moscow is a city of palaces, but. most of them are too wanting in modern comfort to be used as lodgings by distinguished guests. Some hundred foreign royalties were in the old capital together by the Czar’s iv‘vitation to see him crowned. Most had to be boarded out among the families of oflloers of the court. Among these were the sister of the Czar’s bride and her husband, Prince Henry of Prussia, who stay- ed in the residence, near the little Moscow river, of a Colmel in the Czar 5 suite. From his window Prince Henry became interested in the regular early morning proceed- ings of Dmitri the water carrier. When the feastings were over and £139 gqqgts pxjeparinz‘ t_o> depam Nobody in his position, he re- flect/Nd, could have so much money unles’s he were a. thief. His pay was six rubles ($3) a month with a Ihakedown to sleep on in the stable. Windfalls do not happen to moujiks, for the class compartments of life in Russia are too firmly fixed by law to allow the posibility of a. rich relation. As he hugged the reality of his fortune, which made him a. richer man than anybody in his vil- lage, (ear seized him. He had twenty miles to walk from the station to his village. Ae he trudged on with the three hundred ruble notes in his boot his fear grew deeper. He wuld be by far the station to his village. As he how explain it? Again the terror came over him as he thought that his neighbors could noly believe that he had rob- bed a rich man. He saw no way of enjying his luck. He would give his sun scorched, worried head a. rest and say nothing about it. So he appeared in the village and said shaggy-that he had come home. A “If: {be early hours of the next morning his people were awakened by hornfied, The business seemed quaint to western eyes, but nature has given Moscow a. very small supply of run- ning water and engineering had then done nothing to increase it. Vodovos, or water contractors, furnished each house with its daily rations, after Twenty-year old tow headed Dmitri placxdly filled his barrels and fixed then in a. row between the long shafts of his cart. Then he went his rounds, all unknowing that he was ministering to the wants of the Czar’s brother-in-iaw. He left his master’s horse and cart, took lis few rubles of savings from his box in the stable and after hiding the Prince’s tip in the sole of his top boot hurried to the rail- way station. He tool: a. train for the town nearest his village and on the journey kept silent in the clxorqseg of holiday makers. DESPAIRING SHOUTS. The: fopnd Dmitri beside himmlf 'th gnef, his eyes devouring a. apeless, muddy mess that he was holding up to the light. “My three hundred rubles!” he roamed and reached again down in; 50 his boot for another pinch of un- cognizable currency. His ficthers were not less astounded d «on as much afraid as himself. Energ- than they could identify \ the trampled, stained paper pulp the faint names of the long Image Yrijéé‘n‘e'nry 'Dethought himself of distributing tips. The l‘rince’s host delicately suggested that the staff of attendants would appreciate their gifts doubly if they came from the Prince’s own hand. Moreover that would defeat the purpose of the Russian official major demo at- tached to Prince Henry’s suite, who proposéd to relieve him of the trouble of distribution by drawing on him for a lump sum, keeping three-quarters of it and divwing the remainder among his own Sg- lected ctr-hangers. Wnecher from ignorance of the scale used on such occasions, or whether shyness impe‘led him to err far on the side of generosity, Prince Henry pxessed thrce notes for A HY'NDRED RUBLES EACH into the youth' s hand. Dmitri stood amazed, staring at the money and utfering never a. word. Prince Henry nodded cheerfully and} bade him go. Clutching the notes in his fist Dmitr. made his way blindly back to his cart b3 the rix er side. He sat. on the shaft and tried to realize what it all meant. The Prince Eiecided to do his own tipping. As the water carrier was the first human being whom his 3 yes had beheld in the streets of Moscow each diay be sent for Dmitri. The astonished young moujik was told that a, veliki Kniaz, a. Grand Duke, the Cza-r's brn ther- in-law, wanted to we him. He nbe)ed dumbly and was ushered into the prutence of an amiable man not m zch older than himself and apparently about as much emâ€" barrassed. 'DHE MANN ER OF MILKMEN.

At first be we. staken for a harm- less madman, but when the police in their turn decip hered the ruined rates they believed they had a. big case. He gave the police the name of his last employer. He hafi left his place without. giving nomoeâ€"a, serious police offencei For a. week he lay in prison until a statement came from his employer that Dmitri had disappeared leaving the horse and cart in the public road. The water contractor could suggest no explanation of the 300 rubles. Dmitri protested that they were given him by a. Velizi Knianâ€" why. he did not know. By this time Prince Henry and his wife had re- turned to Germany. Dmitri persisted in his story and a. fortnight later the owners of the Prince’s lodging were traced. They in their turn attesed that Prince Henry had sent for the water car- rier, among other attendants, the day he left. "They telegraphed to him explaining young Dmitri’s dis- astrous story. “All HULL JV“- . “A colored man met a. friend 0113 day, and said: ‘Sambo, Sambo, do you know dat toder night I was sorely tempted?

Among the local coronation pardons was one to the water carrier for quitting his post without notice. There Are Plenty of Them, Mr. Blinkinton Says.

And he went at it with the manner of a man who knew what he was about. His needle was thrust into the fabric, not at ran- dom, but in just the right place, and put through on the other side of the hole with the same precision, and it was easy to see by the way he drew the thread through that he really could sew and darn; that he knew how. ly in the army? All only ama- teurs, these, you say, just ama- teurs? Maybe so; but they can sew, all right, can’t they?

We have a commonly accepted notion that only women can sew, but you see how fantastically futile that notion is when you come to consider. Doubt- less there are more women that can sew well; but there are plen- ty, plenty of men who can sew, and some who can sew very well. During the ’fifties of the last cen- tury the word “compromise” was of frequent use in political discus- sions. At that time John B. Gough was a. popular public speaker. He was noted as a. story-teller, and his stories were always wellrasuited to his argument. Mr. W. A. Mowry, in his “Recollections of a. New Eng land Educator," recalls one of them.

In many out-of-theâ€"way corners of the earth there have been held some curious contests for birds and animals, which are seldom heard of outside their own circle. In Huddersfield, England, there is an lassociation for the promotion of lark-singing. The birds are kept for some time in a dark room and then placed before a mirror. Imagin- ing his own reflection to be a. riv- a1, he at once bursts into song. The length of the “song” is carefully recorded, the prize being awarded to the one that sings longest. Last year 325 birds competed, and three birds that sang for ten minutes without cessation shared the -_.hamâ€" pionship. w Cock- fighting is not allowed in public in this countrx, but in lgrance these contests are very po- pular. The birds have a steel spur tightly bound to each foot Bcfme thge fight the cocks are as nerxous as racehorses, and show an extm» ordinary eagerness for the contest.

A more exciting contest can be arranged with turtles, however. The turtle-fishers in South Ameri- can waters select 1'. number of tur- tles, and, attired in bathing cos- tume. mount their steeds, grasping the front part of the animal’s up- per shell with both hands. The turtles are then released, and imâ€" mediately make for the sea. Ordinarily they would plunge with their rider to the bottom of the sea. but; this is prevented by the jockey throwing his weight on the back part of the shell and at the same time pulling the forward part up with his bands, which keeps the animal’s head above the sur- face. By pulling the shell on the left or right the rider is The animals cover eight, or nine miles in an uxt‘aoxdinary simrt time, the spectators running along the beach tu decide the winner. The national sport of Siam takes the form of contests between the famous fighting fish found in that country. So much excitement is caused by these unique fights that the King of Siam derives a. consid- erable revenue from the sport.

ABLE TO GUIDE THE TURTL The fish, previous to a struggle for life, is fed on special food which makes it more ravenous. When ready for the cortest two of these are placed in a. fair-sized glass bot- tle. They swim round and round, at first ignoring each other. until one makes a vicious dart at his ad- versary. Then the real battle be- gins, and keeps on until the referee is satisfied as to the result and stops the match.
