History ol Ice Palaces.
ONB HKAltM) I1T A RUSSIAN KMt'HKSS A
CENTUnV AND A IIAI.P A10.
Tlio oonstructioii of ioo pnlaccs goes
back to the timo of tlio Empress Annie,
of Itiissia, who had onu built in St.
Petersburg in 1739. From nu account
of it published in 1751 the following is
extracted
The manner of building was very
simple j tho purest and most transpar
ent ice was selected ; it whs out from
tho Mcva in !arjjo blocks, which were
then squared with rulo and compass
and carved out with all tho rogular
architectural embellishments When
eaoh block was ready it was raised to its
destined placo by cranes and pulleys,
and an instant before letting it down,
upon the block which was to support it
a little water was thrown between tho
two, tho upper block was immediately
lowered, tho water froze and tho two
beoamo literally one. Tho wholo build
ing, in fact, appeared to bo and really
was all of 0110 single piece, "producing,
without contraction an effect infinitely
more beautiful than if it had been built
of tho most costly marble, its transpar
ency ond bluish tint giving it rather
tho appearance of a precious stone."
Tho dimensions of tho building were,
in English measure, length 50 feet,
depth 18 icet and height, including the
roof, 21 feet. This is the body of the
house : tho palisading was 87 feet in
length of tho front view, including tho
pyramids at tlio corners, was 144 feet.
When tho work was completed tho
publio were allowed an unrestricted
possago through every part of tho
building. This at first caused a good
deal of confusion, which was, however,
obviated by surrounding tho entrance
with a wooden railway, and stationing
police officers who allowed only a cer
tain number of persons in at one time.
EFFECT OF ILLUMINATION.
Tho facade was plain, being merely
divided into compartments by pilasters,
jn each division there was a window,
the framework of which was painted
to represent green marble. It was re
marked that the ice at the low temper
aturo which prevailed, took tho pain
perfectly well. The panes were form
ed of slabs of ice and transparent and
smooth as plalo glass. At night these
windows were generally lighted up,
and most commonly grotesque transpa
rencies, painted on canvas, were placed
in the windows. Tho effect of the illu
mination is said to have been peculiar
ly fine, as tho light appeared not only
at tho windows, but, from tho trnuspnr
enoy of the material, tho wholo palace
was filled with a delicate pearly light.
Tho contro division projected, and ap
peared to be a door ; but it was in faot
a large window, and was illuminated
like the others. An ornamental balus
trade surmounted tho facade of tho
building, and behind was tho sloping
roof with chimneys, in tho usual style
of Russian Architecture. A handsome
ballustrado all of ice, rau round the
outside of tho building. A largo
apace was left for a promenade be
tween the ballustrado and tho palace.
There wero also two entrances behind
with gates handsomely ornamented
with orange trees in leaf and flower,
with birds perohed on the branches, all '
of ice.
ICE CANNON OISCIinOKU.
Six cannon, regularly bored and turn
ed, with their wheels and carriages,
stood before the balustrade, three on
each side. These were of the calibre of
such as usually receive three pounds of
powder, bat being of so fragile a ma
terial it was not considered safe to put
in more than a quarter of a pound ; the
ball was of hard tow, well rammed in.
Two or three times iron balls wero fired
from these cannon without bursting
them. Tho experiment was tried in the
presenco of the Court, and tho ball
pierced a strong plank,two inches thick,
at a distance of GO paces. Two mortars
stood on each side of the cntiatice.
These were tho size of those which
carry a shell of 80 pounds. When fired
the charge of powder was the same as
that for the cannon. On the same line
stood two dolphins, which were made
to throw a stream of inflamed naphtha
out of their mouths by means of con
cealed tubes.
Anecdotes pf Ben Butler,
Here is an anecdote that was told mo
at tho table the other day by a lady
who said that her husband, though a
Republican, was going to vote for him
because ho wanted to "give the old man
a chance.'1 A plainly dressed woman,
evidently in mental distress, presented
herself at his law office one day, and
his secretary, in the outer office, told
her that tho General was engaged inside
and could not possibly seo her. "May
I come to-morrow, then V slio tremu
lously inquired. "No ; ho is going to
Washington to-morrow." She sat a
few moments, with evident reluctance
to yield her hepe, and presently Mr.
Butler camo out and passed through
tho anti-room to go to luncheon. One
of his shrewd eyes caught tho timid
figure, and ho paused bofore her and
asked her in rapid but kind words, if
she wanted to see him. "That is what
I came for,'' she said whlstfully. "State
your business very briefly, and I will
see what can bo done," he said, usher
ing her into his consulting room. She
told him a sad story of conjugal sorrow
through a selfish and tyrannical hus
band, who had gut from her tho little
fortune left her by parents.and not only
did not support her, but abused her.
He said: "Vow, madam, if I inquire
into this case, shall I find that you, af
ter all, Q.ro the ouo to blame T Are the
facts oxactly as you represent them to
me, aud liavo you been to him a good
and true wife "God knows I havo
tried to be, and that all I have told you
is true," she answered fervently, and
drawing out $50 sho said : "I have, bor
rowed this, to como to you with, and
I'm sorry it ia not moro j but do take
it, and seo if you cannot set me free
from him." The General waved buck
tho hand which offered the pitiful sum,
and said ; "I will undertake your case,
but your money is no object to me. I
am not in need of it, but I would like
to help you." Ho returned in duo timo
from Washington, took hold of her
case, which was so clear that he easily
secured tho divorce and recovered 10,
000 of her patrimony for herj and even
then ho would accept no fee, neither
did ho make any overtures even of
friendship toward her, boyond mere
business-liko humanity tho humanity
of a busy, absorbed,but not ungenerous
man. I havo heard several anecdotes
of him hero as favorable as this, and in
Washington he is known as a man of
great kiudness to tlio poor and tho de
pendent. Zetter in Jlotton Journal.
The following explains the difference
betweou " luck " and " chance." You
tko a girl out to tho theatro and dis
cover that you haven't a cent in your
pocket. You are, of course, compelled
to invito her to au oyetor supper after
tho performance. Sho refuses for somo
reason i that'a "luok," but tho "chance"
it a million to one that she will accept.

ltl'.MUtKAllt.E ADVKNTURKS OF A YOUNO
MAN.
Tho following is recorded in the Uos
ton papers !
Iho hero of tho adventures recorded
below arrived in this city a few days
ago as a stoker on an English steamer,
but his caso having becomo known to
tho captain of the vessel, ho was dis
charged hole, and doubtless is now en
joying the comforts of his father's homo
in Central Now York. It seems that
this young man graduated from a
prominent law Bchool in Now York
City in tho fall of 1881, mid, with
amnio funds, furnished by his father,
ami in the company of a number of his
schoolmate?, who were quite willing to
help him spend his money, started on
an extended tour among tho " dives ''
that abound in tho metropolis. To tlio
best of his rccoollcction, their tour oc
cupied several days, and tho last thing
that the young man remembers of lifo
on shore was a low resort in South
street, Now York, where tho company
wa, in great part, made up of those
who go down to tho sea in ships. His
next sensation was that of being tossed
and knocked about in a 8 mall bunk in
tho close forecastle of some vessel.
Starting to his feet and working his
way slowly on deck, he found that ho
was indeed at sea, no land being in
sight. Sick, witli the unusual motion
of the vessel, and weak from n long
debauch, ho endeavored to find out
where he was and how ho camo there.
The first mate told him that ho had
shipped on the vessel in New York as a
common seaman, and that, if they had
good luck, ho would find himself at
Fort Said, in Egypt, in about sixty
days. He endeavored to reason with
tho officer ; told him ho was not a sail
or i that he knew nothing of the sea,
and that ho had never voluntarily
signed the vessel's papers. His pro
testations were of littlo use, however, as
tho bark, for such the vessel proved to
bo, was short-handed, and every man
on board was needed to work her.
Knowing nothing of the workings of
a vessel, his position was a horrible
one. The trip across proved unusually
stormy, and by tho time tho vessel en
tered the Mediterranean tho abducted
man was in a sorry condition. Arriv
ing at Port Said, ho was taken violent
ly sick with a fever, and was placed in
the hospital, whence ho came forth in
about a month almost a skeleton.
Having uo money, no friends, and not
knowing what to do, ho wandered
about tho streets ,of this desert city by
day and nt night ho lay in his hammock,
listening to tho strains of strange mu
sic as they tloated from concert hall
and cafe. Finally, driven to despera
tion, ho managed to secure a berth as
stoker on an English steamer, hoping
almost against hope that something
would turn up that would enable him
to reach his home and friends in tho
United States. About this timo tho
war between England and Egypt broke
out, and the steamer on which the
young man was employed was engaged
in transporting refugees from Alexan
dria and Port Said. Shortly afterward
he was present with his vessel at tho
bombardment and capture of Alexan
dria, and, with true Western enterprise,
he secured many valuable relics of that
historic struggle. At the close of tho
war his ship was ordered to England
and thence to this port, and, after an
enforced absence of over a year, ho
landed in Boston. His reception at
the house of his father, who long since
gave him up as lost, may well be imagined.
A Dollar Profit on Eaoh Hen.
Fannie Field In Ohio Farmer.
Somebody wants to know if one
dollar per year profit from each hen is
a good average. Where hens are kept
as tho majority of farmers keep them,
one dollar per head is quito as much as
the owner ought to expect and I don't
believe that tlio average farmer can
make one hundred dollars easier than
by keping and caring for a flock of
ono hundred hens. If he will do a lit
tlo extra in the way of housing, caro
and feed, the hens will add at least fif
ty cents to the average dollar. Why,
we have pullets that at present writing
(December 11) havo laid three dozen
eggs apiece sinco they commenced
laying tho first week in October, but
they didn't roost in trees and live on
sawdust and gravel ; they had a good,
warm house and plenty of food and
care. If those pullets don't earn con
siderable more than their "average
dollar " per head, before next spring,
I'll cut theio heads off, every last one
of them. And I may as well tell you
that when I fail to make at least three
dollars profit for each hen, duck and
turkey kept for breeding stock, I don't
brag much about ray success in poultry
raising.
Dry Cows.
yonthlr Jersey Bulletin.
It is a common practico among somo
dairymen to give their cows, whilo dry,
but scanty living. When a cow ceases
to give milk, or is dried up, any food
is good enough for her. I think that
this is a groat mistake, and the result
is a diminished product of milk, both
in quantity and quality, when sho doe
come in, There is a large draft on
tho system to sustain tho oalf whilo the
cow is carrying it, and to keep tho cow
in good condition, good feod !b as im
portant at when she is giving milk. It
is the opinion that Si worth of food
when the cow is dry is worth SI. 50
when she comes in. An animal in poor
condition uinnnt digest as much food
as an animal in good condition. If tho
cow is poor when sho comes in she will
rot digest enough food to support the
syftem and, at tho samo time, to make a
largo quantity of milk.
System is buio to tell, nnd heavily,
too, in farming, and the successful
farmor is the one who maps out, in the
winter, his whole campaign for tho
ensuing season. When spring opens
he knows just where and how to cum
inruce, and it is not at alt pushed with
hi work. If all our fanners, who now
"take things as they como " would only
look ahead a little, they need not be
continually behind hand with their
work, as they often are when the
spring lias only fairly commenced and
all through the subsequent season. It
may setm impossible to some to do
this planning successfully, yet a littlo
experience will enablo any ono to do it,
with varyinir degrees of success and
we sincerely hope that our readers will
at once net on our suggestion, and thus
save themselves much annoyanco nnd
trouble, as well as considerable useless
expense,
