    DEATH OF THE CZAR ALEX AN
Dilji III. '
Thi Autocrat ol all the Russia
necumbi to a Long Illness.
St. rsrERsnuRo, November t.
Death has at length released the
Czar from his Bufferings.
At a:ts o'clock this afternoon the
mnimons came and a few hours later
the thunderous booming ol cannon at
Livadia and St. Petersburg announc
ed that the Czir was dea l, and that
he who had been the Grand Duke
Nicholas reigned in his stead.
Since Tuesday, when the doctors
informed the Czir that there was no
longer room for hope, his Majesty
composedly waited for the end, at
tending to necessary state and family
artaits in the short intervals of con
sciousness and freedom from pain.
Those were neeessirily brief, the doc
tors having had recourse to sedatives
to procure sleep and allay pain.
On Wednesday the Czar was still
able to be taken to a window of the
palace, whence he gazed out upon
the country he loved ho well as to
earn for himself Jthe appellation of
the ' Peasant Czar. Ihe night
passed with an aggravation of all the
symptoms and a continuous distress
ing cough. The doctor and the
Czarina remained in attendance upon
him throughout the night, only
snatching brief intervals for sleep in
the ante rooms.
THE DEATH lf.il SCENE.
The morning bruke with rain and
wind and heavy clouds and the
weather much colder. As the day ad
vanced the weakness increased so
rapidly that the C.ir himself recng
nized that he could live only a few
hours. He expressed a desire to re
ceive the sacrament, which was ad
ministered to him by Couit Cr.aplain
Yanisheff. and father Ivan in the
presence of the whole family.
The Czir then conversed iong and
earnestly with Father Ivan, conclud
ing by asking his family to again
gather around him. He spoke to
each member separately and at ihe
greatest length with the Czarina. He
blessed all his children present. The
scene was one of deep pathos, all
being in tears All this tima his Ma
jesty was sitting up in an arm chair.
After taking leave of his family he
grew gradually weaker and his voice
became so indistinct that it was
scarcely audiable. About noon a
convulsive fit of coughing was follow
ed by a slight rally. Thence until
the end the Czar remained quiet,
seemingly free from pain.
At a: 1 5 o'clock he heaved a deep
sigh and breathed his last in the arms
of the Empress, who then broke down
with the weight of her grief. The
doctors fear the results of reaction up
on her already exhausted system.
SWEARING ALL EGIANCE.
When all was over the Czarewitch,
Grand Duchess Xenia and the other
imperial relatives approached the
bedside in the turn to take a last
farewell. The court officials and
members of his Majesty's suite were
afterwaids admitted. The flag over
the palace was placed at half mast
and a salute was fired by the vessels
in the port.
Shorily after 4 o'clock the members
of the Palace Guard were .marshaled
in front of the Palace Chapel for the
ceremony of swearing allegiance o
the new Czar. They were the first to
take the oath. The Grand dukes
were the next to swear allegiance,
and they were followed in the order
of precedence by the high court
functionaries, court officials, military
officers and civil officials.
THE BODY TO LIE IN STATE.
The body is now being embalmed.
It will probably be laid for a couple
of days in the Palace Chapel. The
arrangements that will be made for
the funeral are still unknown. It is
believed that the remains will be em
barked on the imperial yacht Polarnaia
Fivezda (Polar Star), at Yalta, where
the Seventh Army Corns will render
military honors.
The whole Black Sea fleet will
escort the yacht to Odessa, whence
the body will be conveyed by rail to
St. Petersburg, stopping at the im
portant towns on route to enable the
troops to reader honors to the dead.
The state mourning will commence
on Saturday. The funeral will prob
ably be held two weeks hence.
The arrival oP the Prince and
Princess of Wales, now en route to
Livadia, is anxiously awaited. A
special train awaits them at the
frontier. It is believed that the
presence of the Princess of Wales will
afford great comfort to her sister, the
Czarina, and it is expected that she
'i'l make a long stay in Russia.
ACCESSION OF THE CZAR.
An imperial decree announcing
the accession U t ie throne ofthe Grand
uke Nicho'as (the Czarewitch) is
'xpected to arrive from Livadia in a
'ew days. The theatres and restaur
ants were closed this evening, but the
sheets were busy as usual. Crowds
stood about the places where the
bulletins from Livadia have been
Posted reading the official announce
"KM of hi8 Majesty's death.
It is reported here that the popu
lace of Moscow, indignant at what
'hey believe to have been the mal
practice of Dr. Zacharin in the case
?' llie Czar, are wreckisn the doctor's
"""se in that city.
'Ihe telegraph offices here are
crowded with newspaper correspond
ent secKing 10 send tneir reports and
peasants, officers and merchants wait
ing for the latest news from Livadia.
The RirrUons at Cronstradt and Sr.
Petersburg have taken the oath of
aiiigiance 10 tne new ;zar.
t Trora an Alinanao of 1823.
An old farmers' almanac dated
1823 was among the exhibits at the
Berwick Fair. It gave some very use
ful hints for each month which may
be of interest to many of our readers.
This almanac is owned by Mrs.
Thomas Dickson and although it is
seventy-one it is still we'l preserved
The whole book is very interesting
but space will not permit us to pub
lish more than a few specimen items.
For the month of January the follow
ing ' Useful Hints " are given :
" He who will not help himself,
snau nave help Irom no one. Then
let us all begin the New Year with
industry. Let us all throw off our
old habits of lounging and idleness,
and resolve to be active and awake,
Do not be at variance with your
neighbors, especially your minister,
Keep your family from the abomin
able practice of back-biting.
February. Improve every oppor
tunity to increase your wood pile ; it
is a comfortable thing to sit down by
a good fire to bite a piece of bread
and cheese ; but many who own farms
capable of producing almost every
thing the climate will allow of had
rather leave their families to starve in
the cold, without a crumb to put in
their mouths than be dep-ived of the
employment of visiting the dram
shops. Well may the wife scold ; who
would blame her ? And it would not
be strange if love should pop out at
the wnulow, when idleness and pov
erty thus stalk in at the door.
March. Tis time to prepare for
business. Let not man be idle. If a
man intends to do anything at farm
ing he must attend to it personally
anil not trust to otners.
April " nen it rains pottage
you must hoKl up your dish, ' and
when the weather is good for business
you must pay attention to it. There
is no time to be lost in this month.
May. This is a delightful month
What is pleasanter than to see the
dusty farmer returni e from his labor
with a smile of joy and content upon
his brow Hark! tis the tinkling
sheep-bell! Ihe flock is just return
ing from wa lung and the wh.te fleeces
promise your girls employment for
many a winter evening.
June. You must not expect many
play days this month. Watch your
fields and see that weeds and tares do
not overcome them. Make hay while
the sun shines and see that you make
it well. Do not let your cattle faint
for want of salt. Do all the good you
can and mind no ones business but
your own.
July. A stitch in time saves nine
Pay attention to your corn and see
that it does not lack for hoeing
Gather herbs, you will be glad of
them in the winter.
August. "He that has health has
little more to wish for ; and he that
is so wretched as to want it, want's
everything with it 1" If you intend to
possess this greatest of earthly bless
ings you will rise early and be in
search after it.
September. " Pride is as loud a
beggar as want." It will be hard these
times for the poor to ape the rich.
We must wear our old clothes over
again. Remember that line clothes do
not add to the understanding. It is
not the greatest coat that makes the
greatest man.
October. Now is the time to clean
up for the winter. All your tools
should be in their proper places and
no rubbish about the farm.
November. If you have broken
windows and loose boards on your
house no is the time to attend to
them. Send the children to school.
December. Economy is no dis
grace. It is better living on a little
than out-living a great deal. It you
have plenty, go to the .widow, look
into the bosoms of the sad sons and
daughters of poverty, where grief and
sorrow have taken up their abode.

Harper's Weekly.
As a pictorial history of our own
times, Harper1 Weekly is mudh re
lied upon by its English and other
foreign contemporaries, extracts from
the Weekly (with due acknowledg
ment, of course) being made by the
illustrated press of other lands with
increasing frequency. But not less
care is devoted by the publishers to
fiction, as appears from thtir an
nouncement of fome of the features
that the paper will contain in the im.
mediate future. On October 27th will
begin a two-part story, entitled " The
Judgment Books," by E. F. Benson,
author of "Dodo"; November 10th
begins a four-part story, entitled "The
Parasite," by A. Conan Doyle, illus
trated by Howard Pyle ; November
3d there will be a four page supple
ment devoted to the Losn Exhibi
tion of Ladies Portraits at the Nation
al Academy of Design ; November
10th, a four-page supplement devoted
to the new north wing of the Metro
politan Museum of Art 1 November
17th, will be the Horse show Number,
wiih an illustrated cover. From time
to time there will be interesting con
tributions on topics connected with
the present conflict in the East.
THE COLUMBIAN. .
Pure Drinking Water.
The problem of supplying drinking
water in thickly settled districts is
becoming a very grave one, and it is
worth while to give it the most serious
consideration.
It is a fact well known by sanitary
experts, that after long periods of dry
weather, succeeded by very heavy
rams, the death rate increases witn
surprising rapidity. Fevers and other
germ-diseases multiply until an epi
demic is threatened.
The great mistake people make on
the water question is in supposing
that water that looks, tastes and smells
perfectly clean is necessarily all right.
When we take into consideration that
the germs of the most deadly diseases
are discoverable only with the aid of
the most .powerful microscope, we
may readily understand how a few
millions of them, more or less, may
be taken into the system without our
knowledge. Once settled in their com
fortable environment, they prow and
flourish nntil the mischief is too far
advanced to be counteracted. Every
family should have a good filter and
that filter should be renewed as often
as once in two or four weeks, accord
ing to the condition of the water. Very
few people realize what a deadly thing
an impure filter is. Instead of removing
the cause, it simply amounts to a care
fully swept and garnished residence
for myriads of disease germs of various
kinds. They flourish undisturbed in
the filtering medium, building their
homes on the grains of sand that are
to them very much what the Palisades
would be to us remote and unoccu
pied territory, with encouragement
lor increasing and multiplying to an
unlimited extent.
The sand and charcoal filter is very
good as lar as it goes, but needs con
stant renewing. And this is, to many
people, so much trouble that they
complacently swa low bacteria and
bacilli by the hundred thousands.
Physicians agree that the only safe
water to drink is that which is boiled
The boiling should be thoroughly done
in a clean vessel, and then may be
set aside to cool. If it can then be
filtered through a glass funnel, with
blotting-paper or fine cotton or linen
as a filtering material, it will be at its
best, under the eircumstancer, or the
ordinaty filter, frequently renewed,
may be used. Water which is boiled.
if held up to the light, may be seen to
contain floating particles. These are
easily removed by an ordinary blotting-
paper filter, and if this is done in clear.
cool air, the process of aeration 'will
be quite tolerably performed. The
water should then be bottled and put
into ihe ice box until cool enough to
use.
It is not a good plan, under any
circumstances, to put ice into water,
Ice, especially that gathered in thickly
populated districts, is siid to be the
essence of all impurity, and it is not
at all unlikely that the distress and
illness attributed to ice-water is caused
not so much by the cold as by the
presence of countless germs that at
tack the system.
It is important that every peison
drink at least seveial pints of water a
cay, and it is easy to imagine, if the
water is impure, the amount of poison
that one may take within twenty four
hours. Water probably receives as
little attention as anything about the
house. Pure water is one of the first
necessities for health, and one which
no householder should for a moment
think of holding as a secondary con
sideration. Areio York Ledger.
Fashionable Livery.
The well known horseman has
opened a fashionable livery in connec
tion with his boarding stable at the
Exchange Hotel Stables, where fine
turnouts can be obtained, single or
double. He has well broken and safe
saddle and driving horses for ladies,
all at reasonable rates. Orders left
at the Exchange Hotel will receive
prompt attention. Drivers furnished
when desired.
