Picking it up he satisfied himself that it was a real live baby. For several minutes Stroble stood undecided, hardly realizing what had befalleu himself â€"or the baby, either. Finally he got back into his sleigh, and with wonderment on his countenance and the baby in his care, he started again for Batavia, He had travâ€" elled on for wbout two miles, when a rig drove up behind him at a rapid rate, und & German occupant called out to him : usn Detiioy tee ) SE NEXT Door TO PARKER‘S ‘Have you along the roud ET emondvmtas "Here it is," quickly said Stroble, as he caught the baby in is arms aud almost ran to the other cutter with it, so glad was he to gei it off his hands. & An explanation followed.

The red ,%oun is used for this purpose by French cooks, but a white bean will serve. The beans should be soaked over night, and the waterin which they are souked should be poured off them in the morning. They should then be put in a pot. To a pint of beans,measured before souking, add a tablespoonful of butter and a small onion, with a clove stuck in it.

At a recent siting "of the committee for the construction of the Siberian Railway, the Emperor Nicholas declared that the commencement of the work was one of the greatest acts of his father‘s glorious reign. He hoped to complete cheaply, and above all rapidly and satisfuctorily, the construcâ€" tion ot the railway. It was decided to increase the credit of 336,000 roubles by 15,000 for the purpose of settling in the Amoor district Cosack colonists selected from among the troops of European Russia, A further sum of SG roubles was also assignâ€" ed for the trausfer of one hundred and filty Cossack families from the Transâ€"Baikal district to that of the Ussure section of the railway. _ The minister of war observed that the Ussuri section was insufficiently protected from Chinese marauders.

SC far as the Turk declares that he is trying . suppress a revolutionary move he is unquestionably in the right. There is no doubt about that. There is a revolutionary novement in Armenia of a most alarming quality, and the Turk will be fortunate, iadeed, if he succeeds in surpressing it. The methods of some of the leaders of this move are no less shocking than the barbarities of the Turk in suppressing it, so that if we condemn the Turk for his ferocity in the Sassoun vilâ€" lages, we must not forget thet he is already half mad with fear of an Armenian uprisâ€" ing and the probable dismembership of the | empire. fiyez to be born. The Sassoun massacre, it is stated, was the consequence of the Porte being notified that u revolt was going on there, whereas the disturbance was caused by Armeniansfighting cattle robbers. When the Turkish troops came the robbers helped them, and then ensued the horrible carnage of bloodshed and murder, in which some assert as high as ten thousand people were killed, ‘The report of the affait so pleased the Sultan that he ordered the rewarding of his troops for their part in the malter. Rescue of a Miver Who HMad Been Euried | for Fiftyâ€"four Mours. i Aiter haviug spent fiftyâ€"four hours in a living tomb, Charles Ditzel was rencued‘ from the jaws of death in Richardson colâ€" l liery, near Glen Carbon, a suburb of Potts. ville, Penn. His helper, August Brenner, was taken out of the mine dead several hours later. _ Both men were found side by side, the one covered by a dense mass of conl, und the other sitting in a space that left no room for him to move anything but his head. _ Ditzel was so weak he had to be handled like a helpless babe, His body is painfully brvised, but the doctors attend. ing hita say he will live,. He begged his rescuers to give him a drink as soon as they reached his side. _ Ditzel was too weak to express his joy, but his wasted features, telling a tale of suffering, answered the tender solicitude of his wite and relatives with a feeble smile. _ Ditzel was found at the face of the east manway, about ninety yards from the gangway, in breast No. 20, The breast was filled with coal, and how he escaped the fate of Brenner is next to & miracle. R * The rescuers first struck a leg. It was cold and stifl. . Presently another leg came to view. â€" Then a third leg was uncovered. The men could not tell which was Ditzel‘s leg or which was Brenner‘s. 1t was a tangle of human legs without the trunk, . At last Ditzel was liberated. The heavy coal that pinned him to the side of the manway was removed, and his deliverers had the happy satisfaction of taking him out of che narrow aperture alive, _ Ditzel had only been able to use the lower part of one leg during his confinement of fiftyâ€"four hours, and was thus enabled to feel the stiffened limbs of poor Breaner.

The rush of coul liberated a great body of water, and Ditzel was roaked clcan through when taken out of the mine. His body was terribly shrivâ€" eled and bleached from the elects of the mine water, and his body was numb from the cold. The drippings that came from the crevices overhead fell over him, and a drop occasionally struck his tongue, which eagerly licked up the lifeâ€"saving moisture.
