LOCATING THE TKA1T0B.
One bitterly cold winter's evening
Ave men were seated together In a
small room .in a liouso situated In the
Jewish qunrter of n liusy nnu lnigoly
populated Kusiim city. Tlio appear-
nuco of tlio room was ns wrcicueu ns
the exteriml aspects of the liouso itsolf.
Tlio solitary window iw totally con
cealed by a heavy faded curtain, de
pending from tlio roof, and as the wind
moaned, dismally through the broken,
pnnei of Klas, its somber folds swnyed'
(o ami fro. The inmates of this mourn-
fi 1 den wcro sentod round tho table,
imotd'ig tlieh- pipes aud talking, as if
furtively, In whispers. Ai the feeble
rays of the caudle fell fitfully upon tlio
company they roveuleil the youtliiul
faces of four students. Hie chief spokes
man, however, was a mucli oldor mnu,
apparently about CO, with n short
pointed beard, shaggy brows, and Keen,
penetrating eyes ot tho darkest hue.
The othrri deferentinlly addressed tlio
speaker ns "professor," and such, in
deed, lie was, nt that time, at a well
known school of tnedlcino in Russia.
On the present occasion, however, lio
was speaking, not of science, but of the
terrible doctrine of assassination.
Professor V was n Nihilist, a re
puted Collossu? of craft in the dissent
inntlon of revolutionary doctrines, and
on the particular evening in question
lie wo3 engaged in advocating, with
fiery eloquence, tho assassination of a
certiiin colonel who had lately been pro
moted to tho rank of chief connuis-
sionorof the secret police. As the night
woro on their whispered conversation
wns Kiulilemy Interrupted by a low
huiic'.iiiK nt the outer door. In a mo
ment tho conpirators sprung nolsolessly
to their feet, mid listened with bated
breath. The s.mnd was ropeated a pe
culiar whistle was heard from without,
and tlio liiteners exchanged signifi
cant glances nnd quietly resumed their
seats. Presently cautious foottteps
wcro hoard in an outer room, tho door
wns opened, nnd a young man hastily
entered. Hii face s pale, his manner
ngitnted, aud as 1 o returned his com
panions salutations ho regarded them
with a fixed uud angry staie. '
"You havo kept U3 waiting, com
rade," exclaimed tho profes or, puffing
calmly nt his pipe. "TJhl we are
almost ftozen, for tho. nlr of this
wretched apintinent is qulto Siberian.
But now to bu-iness. Wo will warm
ourselves with talk, and fire our minds
with the prospect of revenge.
There was a murmur of approval It
was noticed, how over, that tho young
man who hud just appeared upon the
tcene toolc lits sent In slicnce, and, rest-
in ir. Ids elbows upon the table, slowly
torutfuized the faces of his comrades.
"My dear professor, " he said at length,
"we can not possibly proceed at present
with this business. "
"Why not?" wns unanimously asked.
"Because," replied the latest comer,
as lie quietly snuffed the caudlo, "be
cause one of us is a traitor."
"Atrnltnrl" exclaimed the men, start
ing to their feet.
"Yes co nrades, we are betrayed; and
ns no one knows ot thia plot of ours ex
cept ourtelves, it is plain, I think, that
one of us hus turned informant."
"You nre mad to say sol" honrselyex
olaimed the protestor; "but in heaven's
name, what has happened? Come, tell
us quickly. This is no jesting matter."
"Listen, then. On my way thither,
comrades, I entered a Cnfo de Paris to
sip n cup of tea and smoke a cigarette.
I Inippetied to sit down beeldu two of
ficers of tlio Secret Police, and, as one of
them was somowhat tipsy, I could
hear his conversation. I found It rather
iiiteiotting. He told his companion that
ho xna under oiders to surround this
o!d deserted house at midnight it U
near 11 now aud to arrest nil persons
found within. He mentioned, more
over, all our names, una added, with a
maudlin laugh, that a certain peison,
to whom the administration is eternally
indebted, would be found in our mi 1st
playiug the part of conspirator. Now,
comrades, I havo done. What shall wo
do?"
The men looked at each other lu dis
may. A dead silence filled tho room,
for the mere suspicion of treachery
among the men who had solemnly dedl
cated their Ures to tho sooted cause of
liberty seemed to hold them dumb. Such
villainy In their very midst among
men bonded together In saored brother
hoo.l wai a greater crime than the
nwcllets aots ot a depot and his ruin
ions.
"If this is true," said the professor In
a voice of suppressed rage, " then I will
no longer believe in human fidelity, or
the future of our cans. But Dathl
If the story is true. Which ot us is the
Informer?" added the speaker, staring
neroely at the Dale faces of his com nan
t ioni.
"Unlit It if useless to ask that, my dear
profess'ir, exclaimed Ivan suoh was

tn tho door of the room, locked it, and
paced the key In his pooket "Every
one will astoit his innocence of course.
But. com miles, suppose wo endeavor to
find him otU? Let us seaioh each other.
'11 io traitor, whoever ho may be, must
tlouhtlass havo in his poso6tou somn
proof of his guilt At least, the experi
ment Is worth trying. What say your "
Agreed I agreed! exclaimed the Nl-
lilliit-, ns with ouo accord they sprang
oMiruIslrolv to their feet. Ono of the
students a tall, lank youth, with a
somewhat foppish appearance ob
jected, however, to the proposal
'liut why?" hotly demanded the pro
fessor, who seemed all eagerness to be
gin tho investigation.
"Bcuse, was tho liesitatme re
joinder, "because it is unnecessary. Our
word of honor ought to be enough. Be
sides, there is something degrading in
llig Idea of searching ouo another, ns if,
indeed, we were a lot of pickpockets.
So let us break up the meeting. Tills
excitement is nbstird, and renders the
Ilscussion of tho plot impossible. As
for the story told by the drunken soldier
in the cafe, I don't hellove a word of It,
These words produced an angry mur
mur nmeag tho excited conspirators.
The prot(Bt seemed so ridiculous; and
ns tho clamor ivicrcnsed Ivan turned to
the speaker and warmly oxclnimod,
"Very well; wo shall abstain from
searching you, sinco you wish it; but
remember this, that If we fall to find n
clue to the informant among those who
willingly submit to the examination wo
hIiiiII then know upon whom to fix our
suspicions. Now, comrades, ssarch mo
first; I am ready, "
In n moment tho speaker s pockets
wcro emptied of their contents, and
wen the lining of his clothes wns care
fully searched; but beyond a few old
lovo letters, some political pamphlets,
and an English newspaper with n para
graph obliterated with lamp black,
nothing of an incriminating character
wns found, A second student readily
submitted to the test if test it wns
with similar results. Then a third
stepped forward and placed himself lu
the hands of his companions. But at
thnt raomout n curious incident oc
curred. An Invisible hand suddenly
extinguished the light ot the candle,
and tn n second the room was plunged
in utter darkness.
What did it mean? Who had
quenchod tho light? F.ov n momont.the
Nihilists remained motionless, ns it
rooted to tho spot. As they llstenod in
nlarm, they heard a strange Creaking
sound in the direction of the curtained
window.
Suddenly tho voico of Ivau exclaimed
in the dnikness: "Comrades, this is a
tiickt Listonl Some ono Is endeavoring
to cscnpo by tho window! It is the
traitor at last. His attempt to escnps
betrays liU guilt. Stand backl I know
how to deal with him!"
In an Instant tho rcpoit of tluco re
volver shots rang through tho room, and
wns followed by an agonizing yell ns
Borne oue fell heavily upon the floor,
A profound silence then ensued.
It wai an awful situation.
At length Ivitn' spoko to his torrified
companions.
"Strike n light now, "ho said in n
trembling voico, "and let us look upon
the face of ii traitor. Will no ono move?
Are you nil afraid to gaze upon tlio dead
body of a miscreant who has betrayed
us to our memies? Come, profefisor,
where tiro the matches? You had them
last. But hush! What sound is that?
Li-ten I By heavens, comrades, the
police are upon us already, -The houso
is surrounded I Quick I hero is a trap
door, known only to myself. It leads to
the main sen or, and is our only hope of
escape. Follow mo."
Qroplug hand in hand in the dark,
the hfftightcd men followed tho speak
er's directions, and after some moment
ary confusion, disappeared into a
noisome abyss. None loo soon. In an
other instant the door of the room was
battered to piecos, and n compauy of
gendarmes entered. Lights wcro now
flashed in every direction, hut it was
obvious to nil that tho conspirators had
ojoaped. Tho officer in charge swore
long nnd deep, nnd ordered the men to
search the house from top to bottom.
Then, advancing toward tho window, ho
stumbled over a hitman body,
"What's this?" ho exclaimed, exam
ining the dead man's features with n
lantern, "H,il so they have caughtyou
at last, my friend, have ihey? Well,
you played the spy long aud well, but it
always comes to this end. "
And, (earing down the window cur
tain, the officer threw it over the rigid
body of the professor. ni McDougal,

Families la Heligoland.
The women iu Heligoland are, gener
ally speaking, small and gracefully
formed and preeut a remarkable con
trust to their tall nnd strapping mates.
The fomalo loveliness is unfortunately
somewhat transient, no doubt owing in
largo measure to tho Inferior fare aud
rough work with tho nets. No idea of
female suffrage is ever likely to enter
a Heltgolander's head. His idea ot the
relation of the sexes is tho old one that
the man is the head of tho wife and that
women, take them as you like, are an
Interior order: they nre kind nnd courte
ous to their women iu all respects, but
there Is no doubt who is lord and bread
winner. Tlio patriarchal system has
scarcely died out
Each lusty, broad shouldered on,
though he may have passed his 21st
birthday, is required to give all or
nearly all his earnings to his father so
long es he Uvea iu his father's house.
When he marries and takes up house for
himself then only does the natria pro
testae come to an end. Ueligolanders
as a lule marry young; there are more
women thau men, and It Is not diftloult
to find a mate. Housekeeping is not an
expensive job, and there is plenty ol
money to be earned if a man is intelli
gent and industrious. It may be some
time ueiore the young nusuand lias it
boat ot liia own, for a boat costs $136
(they are all built on the island), but lie
can always hire one, paying for its hire
about 85 per oont of the payment lie

Doubt.
Hie relation of the tesohings of geology
to the first chapters of Genesis line ox-
cited so much attention in these later
years that the moral truth contained in
this portion of tlio bible has often been
left in the background. Thnt tho earth
was gradually nrermtod to be the dwell
ing plaoe ot man, and arranged to cor
respond to tho wants of his nature, Is n
fact of importance. But higher truth
than this enrlchos tho first pages of the
sacred volume. Tlieie, at the outset,
stands the great protest against pan
theism mid atheism the sublime an
nouncement Bounding llko the voice of
tho Creator himself: In the beginning
God created the heavens nnd the earth I"
Thou thoro is the description of man, ns
exalted abovo tho lower orders of being
through the possession of a living soul
that comes directly from his Maker and
bears his Image n dental of tho de
grading theories which, on account of
resemblance of physical organization,
have sought to Identify mind with mat
ter aud to represent tlio beast as on n
level with the rational creature.
Then follows the momentous fact of
man's fnll from holiness Involving, of
coui'bp, his fiecdomaud responslbleness,
tho origin of sin in tlio voluntary trnns-
giession of law, and that wonderful de
scription of tho phenomena of guilt, to
the escnlinl truth of which every heart
responds: "And Adam aud his wife hid
thoumelvod from the presence of tho
Lord Gjd ntnongst the trees of the gar
den I " Wo have hero a series of state
ments that warn the conscience,
now as always, not to listen to
(he suggestion that Mu is an accident, or
somet hing involved In theuntureof man,
as tho plant is Included in the seed, but
over to look upon siu ns man's own
perverse, guilty net, done in disregard
of the will of God. Aud then the mys
terious connection of physical disorder
and distress with the moral ruin of man
is asserted; nnd thus the sufferings ot
the human rnco nro made consistent with
God's wisdom and justice.
It would bo easy to show that this
mass or truth however it may bo

into all Christina views of God, of man,
Ills rights, aud" his.dutiea to his master

But while geology has oxpanded, tho
lesson of Genesis is that the earth was
made for man and wns adapted to meet
his wants, tho science ot astronomy
would appear to havo a contrary ten
dency. In tho room ot the old idea that
the firmament was spicad out nnd hung
with glittciing lights for the sake of the
earth uud man, wo are no , taught that
tho earth is itself n diminutive star, and
that but a small portion of the stellar
unlvcise can ho discerned by tho human
eye. Indeed, tho Copernlcan discovery
has produced a total revolution in our
conceptions of the material creation.
The oarth has been driven, as n usurper,
from her throne of glory in tho center
of tho worlds to a little nook in tho
boundless empire. Yet, as the old He
brews Lclieved, as we know, to whom
the Gospel has come, ovon better than
they, God Is mindful of man. He does
think ot us. He nover censes to care for
us. Even tho host of stars, whatever
grander office they fulfill in the universe,
nro made at the sumo time to ba for
signs, nnd for soaioux, aud for dayy, nnd
for years, and to be lights in the firma
ment of the heaven to givo light upon
tho earth. Whatever nobler purposes
they may accomplish, for this use, also,
they were adapted by the Creator,
The intention ot tho Creator to elevate
and gratify the hunmu miud by spread
ing over us the sunlit and starlit sky is
undeniable. One motive, therefore, in
the structure of the material universe,
was the good of man. Tims does tho
Creator consult our happiness in those
contrivances which nre destined to ac
complish other onds remote from our
comprehension. Out ot all tho worlds
he has erected a root over man's destiny.

"Once there was a mosquito. This

A rilKNOUBtAN'S QUKElt IUBA.
na rrnpoves tn Drop l'eople Safsly From
tlio lilffel Tower.
A French inventor, having in mind
people who doto upon the particular
sensation that ono feels on a high swing,
on tho odge of steep declivities or in any
place whoro thoro is a rapid doscont,
proposes to give to the public tho feel
ing of a vortical fall of several hundred
meters Into space. To hint a jump from
tho top of tlio highest steeple is a moro
bagatelle; it requires the height of tho
Eiffel Tower to satisfy hi3 ambition. It
is iu ono word a question ot letting
amateurs fall a distanoo of S00 meters
and giving them baak safe to tholr fami
lies. At the end of 110 meters ot fall
tho into of descent of this now species
of tourist will bo 45 meters a second; at
tho end of 200 meters it will be 05 meters
per second; at tho ond of SOO meters it
will bo 77 meters por second. Tho most
rapid railroad trains mako about S3
motors por second Never, theu, has
tho human rnco experienced so high a
speed as that proposod.
It is always easy enough to fall 800
meters, but it is not so easy to pick one's
self up safo and sound. This Is tho
schomo of tho inventor. Ho builds u
cage similar in shnpa to a hholl for a
cannon, - In the body of the shell is a
largo space, having a diamotor of three
meters and a height of four meters,
with room to hold 15 persons comforta
bly seated in arm chairs. Tho floor is a
mattro33 having springs 60 centimeters
high. Beneath, nnd forming tho point
of the shell, Is a series of cones inclosed
ono within another. The total height of
tho cngo is 10 meters; its weight four
tons. From tho top of a tower ono can
let this gignntio shell fall with its load
without injury to any of the occupants,
Whoro it strikes the inventor has
hollowed out a large basin filled with
water, shaped like tho bowl of a cham
pagno glass. Tlio shell is recolvod in
this soft cushion and displaces about 30
tons of water. Tho shock that the
voyagers would otherwise foel is by this
means entirely deadcued. Tho buoy
ancy of tlio shell causes it to riso to tho
surfaco and tho bold experimenters can
then get out The shell is then to be
lifted up by an olovator to tho top of the
tower, where everything is ready to bo
gin again. The price for this venture
some journey Is already fixed nt 20f, a
person. This might be rccomniendod

If I name my garden at Azahu among
tho scenes ever to bo remcmborod In
Japan, It Is because it was typical ot a
city residence there, as well as being
really a protty spot, and full of "things
Japanese. " Provided with an outer as
well as au inner range of sliding shoji,
wo could make it warm in the winter as
well as cool in tho summer, although
the outer plass (amado) would certainly
rattle a groat deal in a stormy wind or
an earthquake, this latter phenomenon
occurring pretty frequently, A Japau
ose house is really healthy as well as
comfortable. Being built not in the soil,
as with us, but abovo it, freely venti
lated by the airiuess inseparable from
its construction, and being entered only
with bare or stocklngod feet it is always
sweet'aQd clean, Tho tataml, tho mats,
of suclian abode remain so froo from
dust or dirt that tho dellcato silks or
muslins of their kimonos nro laid upon
tho floor by Japanese ladles without the
least fear of soiling them. Cheap to
build, beautiful in appearance, spotlessly
pure, and, with proper arrangements,
eminently salubrious, the Japanese
domicile seoms to me entirely admirable
and lu almost all its good qualities rich
and poor share alike. Tlio palace of the
emperor and tho hut of tho ICurum
aman are practically on tho same plan,
and even in tho smallest tenemenU I
havo seen apartments so clean, so neat,
so bright, and so charming that thoy
might have been boudoirs for the om

A boy can not invent anything he
can only imitate; and it is easier to imi
tate evil than good. You can imitate
war, but how aro you going to imitate
peace? So a boy passes his .leisure In
contriving mischief. If you get another
fellow to walk into a wasp's camp you
can see him jump and hear him how,
but it you do not, then nothing at all
happens. It you set a dog to chase a cat
up a tree, then something has boen done;
but if you do not set the dog on the cat,
then the oat just lies in the sun and
sleeps, and you lose your time. If a
boy could find out some way of doing
good, so that he oould bo active in it,
very likely ho would want to do good
now and thon; but as ho can not ho very
