    A Gay Evening In Moscow.
Treating their women ns nlavcs, and
thch ons m minora oven long nftcr
tlioy havo attained tho ago ol manhood,
tlio merchants of tho old types livo
aloof from any political or oven intel
lectual movomcnt, under a rudo patri
arohial Bystcm.
The aona and crnndsonn of thoso
old-fashioned bearded merchants, tho
ktipcohu9kiycsynki" (merchant's sons),
as they nro called, when they abandon
tho habits of their ancestors, astonish
tho capital by their extravagancies
ond absurd display of wealth. Theso
young Russians sharo their chins,
dress in European stylo, keep horses,
carriages, and aotresse", go to tho thea
ters, and often push beyond tho fron
tiers os far as Nice,Monto Carlo, or Paris,
whoro thoy astound waiters and chorus
girls by their wild prodigality and fan
tastio ostentatiou. The Mttscovito mer
chant of tho old.ty po is a solid Oriental j
his emancipated eons and grandsons
havo a thin varnish of apparent Western
civilization, or rather Western corrup
tion, but they remain, nevertheless,
rank barbarians. This they show in
their amusements, and oven in their
hospitality, as wo ra&y readily conceive
oursolves by spending a "gay" even
ing in Moscow.
The reader need not bo alarmod ; wo
shall not invito him to follow us into
any very torriblo places but simply
to acoompauy us to tho park. It was
a long ride. Tho swift drosky rattled
along up-hill and down-hill, through
this suburb and that suburb, and then
along an endless sttcet of immense
w'dth paved wUh cobble stones and
bowlders, and lined with whito houoes,
mostly only ono story high. Finally
wo pass boyond the utmost limits of
tU i city, past an enigmatio triumphal
arch erected in tho middto of a wilder
ness, and so across a stretch of open
country, beyond which Is Potrofski
Pa.k. At the entrance of tho park
are some pretty summer villas built of
wool, and ornamented with fret-work
carvings in the well known Russian
style. Then after driving along im
mense aveuuei bordered with fino trees,
wo reached tho restaurants and con
certs of which wo had heard so much,
Strelna, M .r-itioia, Arcadia, Eldorado,
ami olherr, whoro the famous Tysgaoes
or Bohomicnnes sing. After tho lyri
cal anu hyperbolical descriptions of
Theophilo Oautier and other enthusi
astic travellers, to say nothing of tho
boasts and recommendations of ac
quaintances, we were preparod for mar
vels and splendora, for something fairy
like and unheard of, or at loas for
somo new and memorable sensations.
Tho deception was complete. These
establishments consist of piao-wood
halls surrounded by gardens similar to
ordinary German beer-gardens j and
tho Batons and privato rooms, instead
of being enriched with gilding and
eatrptuous divans, aro furnished with
economical bent-wood chairs, simple
looking glasses, and paltry tables.
We visited theso establishments one
after tho other ; they wero all the Banie,
all enveloped in a vail of dismal ma
laria and ennui suecestivo of bank-
rupoty : the pino wood halls weio
empty, tho waiters half asleep ; in one
corner of tho room on a dais was an
orchestra, but tho -musicians did not
play. Pacing np and down in couples,
thoir arms around each others waists,
wero women, mostly Swceds and Ger
mans, dressed in bricbt in door cos
tume chorus singers who did not
sing. In out of the way corners
sat ancient matrons of horriblo aspect,
painted and powdered, who seemed to
watch over the promenading of the
chorus-singera. Near tho door stood
a few gypsy women in shabby Europe
an costume, and a fat brigandish gypsy
inun dressed in brown corduroy, with
a macK cioth cap on his head, in
the garden a dozen military officers
wero sitting at tho tables drinking tea
and smoking cigarettes ; they wore
long overcoats, although wo wero sup
posed to bo enjoying midsummer heat
so sensitive aro the Russians to cold
and damp. Strange, is it not, that in
spito of this sensativeness thoy should
bo so fond of out-door places of amuse
ments? What was to be done ! Wo con
sulted a Russian friend, an officer who
had kindly guided us to these distant
wastes.
"Why do not tho Bohcmieuncs singt
Why are thore so few people here?
These questions seemed to strike
him as being rather odd. Tho Bohem
iennes, ho told ns, sing only when they
aro paid ; wo most hire a privato room
and mako n ba 'gain with the fat man
in corduroy.
"How rauoh do they want?"
"At Jeast twenty-fivo rubles."
Wo made tho bargain, hirod a room,
ordered refreshme Us, and soon half a
dozen men with guitars, and tho same
number of women, all of them ugly
boyond exception, and dressed in
ridiculous French costumes, entered
and took their places at tho end of tho
room. Thoy sang some melancholy
Russian songs, then some passionate
Tsygauo songa, ond then threo of thorn
danced with lascivious Oriontil move
ment, whilo tho others howled and
ojacalated in truly savage fashion.
But in order to induce them to eieouto
this dance tho guerdon had to be rais
ed from twenty-five to a hundred
rubles, and still wo are lookod upon ns
very small seigneurs. Corcainly tho
Bongs and dances of these BohoJiiuniie,
havo a wild and striking character on
several subsequent occasions wo hau
tho opportunity of ascertaining this
fact but from tho point of view of
art and intensity of expression, these
famous Moscow gypsys cannot for a
moment bo compared with tho Span
iards; and as for their vaunted boauty.
it is a delusion and a snare. Not one
in a hundred of thorn can pretend to
good looks. The Taygauea of Moscow
aro ono of those colossal "frauds" in
which tho East is no fertile In any
other country these people would oxer
ciso tho profocsion of chair-menders
fortune-tellers poultry thieves, and
horsovdcalurs, for whioh tho gypsies
havo tiatural gifts; iu Moscow, thanks
to tho naivete of the new-fangled mer
chants and of tho rich young man iu
general, they aro to spoil tho Egyptians
with less trouble and risk. "No feto is
considered complete without tho Boh
emiennes, no prodigality in morjoy or
jewelry can satisfy their rapacity; ro
Hcrved, disdainfnl, inaccessible tb tho
enterprises of gallantry, theso gypsy
women drive tho glided youth of Rus
sia wild with enthusiasm, and stir their
torpid souls in much tho same way as
ardent spirits ticklo their dll paulates.
Tho fascination winch thoy exercise
.over tho iucol erent imagination of the
Rues'nns is urorrplified by tho caso of
a Princo Galitzin, who in our own days
bought fro.n her trib'o for moro than
fifty thousand dollars the young Tsy
gano who becaroo ills wifo ami tho
mother of his children. This lady, now
divorced from her husband, lives in tho
vast Galitzin Placo at Moscow, on the
Moskwa Quay, and does rot disdain to
Increase her handsome incowo by carry
ing on ono of tho largest pawn-broking
businesses in tho Russian Empire.
J3
After hearing tho Bohomicnnes, nnd
after further questioning our Russian
friends, we begin to understand why
theso C(fe ctumtants in tho park aro
so ordinarily no deserted, nnd why
there in no regular publio to speak of:
thoy depend largely upon thosnport of
tho Jeuneue (force, nnd this glided
youth has a peculiar way of organizing
pleasnro party. A young scignour
or n oung merchant will drivo up to
ono of these cstabllsmonts, accompan
ied by his friends, nnd hire the whole,
house. If thero are oilier customers
present, ho will pay them to go away,
or fight with them for possession It
they prefer tho latt-rcoiiHo. Then lie
will hiro tbo Bohemieunis, order onam
pagno by tho hundred bottles, and n
feast coplnus enough frr a company of
giauts, and tht n. niter so many hours
of wild and btutal eating, drinking,
and roistering, ho and his friends will
smash glasses, dishes, table?, chairs,
and overy thing brcakahlo within tho
place. This breakage Is always reck
oned beforehand in tho contract.
SjcIi is young Moscow's idea of a
niuht of pleasure tho ostentatious
Spending of largo sums Of money.
Naturaliy, with such oustomers as these,
say lour merits only out of tho seven,
Strelna and Mauritania can oxist and
even ourioh their proprietors; but when
some gay sparks aro not engaged in
making matchwood ol the turutiurc,
they aro dull, dismal, and full of ennui.

TKK 11A1.I, AN IMMENSE AFl'AIK.
Railroad nnd tent arrangements have
been completed for the monster Picnic
Exhibition to tike placo in Colonel
Taylor's Fort Woods, at Centre Hall,
September 17 to 20 inclusive. Access
by rail will bo convenient from all di
rections and sullicicnt trains ,will bo
placed on tho several roads to mako

Hon. Leonard Rhone, chairman of tho
association, informs tho writer that up
to this timo tbo applications for tent
and exhibition privi'eges are far in ex
cess of what they wero last year.
Tho list of speakers comprises such
mon as Col. Biugham, of Ohio, Master
of tho National Grange, P, of H., Gov
ernor James A. Beaver, Hon. Mortimer
Whitehead, of New Jersey, Lecturer of
of the Natloncl Grange; Brigadier Gen
eral D. II. Hastings; Senator Brown, of
York county, Lecturo of tho State
Grange; General B. F. Fisher of Chest
er county, nnd others.
Ono of tho attractions, outside of the
general discussion of Grange topics and
display of machinery and agricultural
implements, C. K. Sober tho champion
wing shot of America, has corif ented to
givo exhibitions of bis wonderful marks
man ship, at stated intervals during tho
week.
Seven trains will run each day over
the Lewisburg and Tyrone railroad
from Centre Hall to Montandou, con
necting with trains on tho P. & E. road
and also to Bellefonte, connecting with
trains on tho Bald Eaglo Valley road.
This picnic-exhibition will, without
a doubt, bo one of the largest and most
successful affairs ever held in Centre
county or Central Pennsylvania and
will be attended by thousands upon
thousands of people from all over this
and adjoining- states.
A GOOD APPETITE.
Is essential to good health; but at
this season it is often lost, owing to the
poverty or impurty of the blood, de
rangement of the digf-st'iv organs, and
tho weakening effect ol the changing
season. Hood's Sarsaparilla is a
wonderful medicino for creating an ap
petite, toning tho digestion, and giving
strength to tho whole system. Now is
the timo to take it. Bo sure to get
Hood's Sarsaparilla.
Still Prosecuting Tbelr Weary Work.
Tho thrco judges who are still pros
ecuting the weary ta.k of taking testi
mony in the contested Judicial election
casein Lycoming county, meet at regu
lar intervals and go on with their work
that seems to be endless. It is now
nearly a year sinco they began piling
up this pretty bill of costs which the
taxpayers of tho county" will have to
pay. Tho witnesses that havo been
examined have been numerous enough
to form a smill army, and yet sulli
cient evidence has not yet been secured
to mako it clear that tho Democratic
candidato who had a majority of the
votes should stq down and give the
bench to tho minority Republican can
didate. Upou its faco tho caso heirs
the unmistakable appearance of a de
sign to steal tho judgeship.
Tho dull proceedings of tho court of
inquiry were enlivened tho other day
by a question that arose concerning
tho printing of tho evideneo. Com
plaint was mido that tho printers wero
behind in putting this voluminous stuff
in print, aud ono of tho learned judges
threatened that if Iho WiUiam'purL
printers couldn't come up to tho re
quirements of tho emergenoy it wruld
be necessary to havo tho printing com
pleted iu Philadelphia. What u nice
item in the bill of costs tho 'printing
expenses are going to be, and taking
i oil together tho taxpayers will have
a pr- tty sum to pay as tho result of
this Republican scheme to seat a judge
who was not elected. Watchmun.
THE DANVILLE FAIR.
Tho Nineteenth Exhibition of tho
Montour Agricultural Society will bo
held at Danville, Pa., commencing on
Tuesday, September 17th, 1889 and
continuing four days. Extensive prep
arations aro being mado for tho same

finest fair over held by this Sooiety.
Elegant buildings aro on tho grounds
for tho proper display of tbo farm pro
ducts and manufactured articles, also
good stabling for tho livo stock on ex
hibition. The track has been widened
and otherwise improved aud is now
one ot tho best in tho State. All trot

tho National Association, of which
this fair is a member. Numerous at
tractions will bo offered each day and

persons visiting tho fair mi onjoynblo

cordially invitod to bo present.
THE BESTADVEBTiaiMQ
Tho nioH efficient advertising in
behalf of Hood's Sarsaparilla is that
which oomes from tho medicino itself.
That is, those who are cured by it,
speak to friends suffering similarly,
who in turn derive benefit aud urgo
others to try this successful medicine.
Thus tho oircle of its popularity is rap
idly widoning from this couso alone,
aud moro and raoro nro becoming un
thusiastio in behalf of Hood's Sarsap
arilla as it actually demonstrate its
absolute merit. All that is nuked for
Hood's Sarsaparilla is that it bo aiven
a good trial. If yon need a good blood

WASHINGTON 11Y VIRGINIA.
Recent agitation about building n
new nnd moro expensive presidential
man-ion li.is hi ought to tho surface an
oh) mortgage on tho White Ilhuse that
has been forgotten or lost sight of for
long time. Mr. M. B. Ilarlow, secre
tary and treasurer of tho Mount Vernon
Avenue Association, is tho man who
biings forward tho claim. In an inter
view about the proposed now excoutive
mansion ho says:
"I am glad to seo the subject agitated
ana i nopi it will be taken up by and
pushed by Congress. When it is, our
association, to whom tho Virginia Leg
islamre has transferred its claim againBt
the Government for money harrowed
by General Washington to build tho
present structure, will present that
claim and ask for payment for the old
housi before it beg'trs the new. Tho
claim, which is for 120,000, has never
been denied by the Government, nor
can it b, for wo havo tho promise of
ui1? liovernment' maiio through Wash
inrton. to nav tltn nmnnp liru'L- In VI..
gin a should it ever be able to do bo.
We will not, perhaps, ask that the
olaim ho paid in money, but will prob
ably suggest that Congress defray tho
exposes oi uutnung tno proposed nat
ional highway to Mount Vernou. If
iney agree, wo will Iranslcr the Vir
ginia mortgage on tho White House a
