DINED WITH THE CZAR. ,
non Showered Tpoo Joaeph
Inventor of tha Lifeboat.
In 1 S.5 Mr. Francis wc-nt to Europe.
He intnlna-d his LaveutJons at many
courts. He remained abro-vi abont 13
rears and made many warm friends in
inany lands by his modest, unassuming
frankness and his habitual courtesy.
And he received great honors at the
tenns of kings.
I shall not soon forget the stories be
told of the events witness in these
Europe;.! capitals, they were ail so in
tending, and be whs bo w hohy franK
and natural in their narration. He was
long at the court of the czar, a f oven ign
who was deeply interested in the work
of the inventor. When Mr. Francis
went to Europe, he had letters of intro
duction fn.ru many prominent Ameri
cans, In St Petersburg !v ailed r.ien
the American minister. H -, .is he told
me laughingly, be forgot all clout his
letters of introduction, one of which
was fn-m the pnidcnc of the Ctiited
States and another fn.ra t'ae f.-cn tary of
Ftate, and inen ly told some of the offi
cials connected with the American lega
tion that he wished to meet the czar.
"Whatl" the official ejaculated in
amazement "Mevt the czar? Impossi
ble, man! Do you realize what you are
asking an introduction to the czar of
liussia? Why, it would take you a month
to get an introduction to tbe grand duke,
to say uothiiig about getting into the
presence of the czar. "
Mr.- Francis went away, and, with
true American independence, called at
the palace of the grand duke. He sent
in bis plain visiting or business card.
He had not Ions to wait The attendant
ushered him into a magnificent salon in
the ducal palace. "From the farther
tide of the splendid room, " said the old
gentleman to me as henlated the story,
bis eyes glowirg with the recollection
of the triumph of the hour, "appeared
the Grand Duke Coustantine, one of
America's truest friends, and, both of
bis bands outstn tched, he toJi both of
mine in his as be reached me."
The grand duke asked what he could
do for Mr. Francis, the man of whom
they had beard so much, whose life sav
ing se rvice was even then of such value
to Russia's s-acoast, and wbt.se inven
tions pnimised so much for Kussia
what could be do? Air. frauds saiu
that he would like to meet the czar.
Certainly. The grand duke would
make an appointment with him to dine
in a day or two with tbe czar tt the
palace.
And this was his introduction to
Alexander II, a ruler who never forgot
this gentle, modest American, and who
thnmgh long years owned hini as a
cherished friend.
A day or two afterward Mr. Francis
strolled into the oflico of tbe American
legation. I doubt not there was a merry
tv. inkle in bis eye, for no man loved a
quiet j :ke tetter than he did.
The official to whom Mr. Francis had
expressed his desire to meet the czar
epoke up jokingly :
"Well, bow are you coming on iu
your efforts to meet the czar?"
"I have seen him. "
"What," with doubt in face and.
voice, "you have seen the czar.' How
did von see him, pray tell?"
"I dined with him yetterday," was
the fcimpic answer.
And it was not the last time be was
entertained at the impirial palace,

A PLUCKY CONJURER.
Ia Displaced More Nerve Than Did Hie
Volunteer AaalntaaU
A very pleasant anecdote is told of
Professor Anderson by Mr. Arthur a
Beckett in bis "Gm n Kooui Kevolli
tious." He says the professor in his
great gun trick used to give one of the
audience a rifle, some powder and a
marked bullet. The marksman was
then requested to load and pn-pare to
fu-e.
Thereupon the professor walked to
the cud of tbe stage and invited the ri
fleman to shoot him. Then, after the
marksman had Cn-d, be used to produce
the marki-d bullet insisting that be
had caught it on a plate. On one occa
sion a friend of mine, who was au ad
mirable amateur conjurer, offered him
self as an assistant. He took the gun
and the ammunition and duly leaded.
It was tbe custom of the professor to
give the bullet a final tap with his
wand to Bee that it was rammed down
pmjKirly, and this final tap, I have been
told, extracted the bullet This my
friend knew, and when the professor
offemi his assistance he politely de
clined. Anderson did not insist, but
coolly walked to the end of the stage
and called out, "Now, sir, take a good
aim at me and tire."
My friend hesitated, as he was well
wan that the gun he was holding was
really loaded. "Fire, sir, lire!" cried
the pmfeiwor.
My friend lowered the weapon, and,
saying he could not let it off, returned
it to Anderson, who immediately, un
der pretense of seeing whether it had
been properly loaded, extracted the bul
let Then he gave the gnu to some one
else. But liefcre the rifle was fired h?
addn-ssed the audience. "Ladies and
gentlemen," said he, "the p rson who
has just ntuiui d his seat knt w my tri k
and foiled it If he had fired, this prob
ably would have been my last appear
ance before you. But he hodii't suffi
cient nerve to shoot me."
When it dawned upon tbe house that
Anderson had risked his life lalii: rtlian
confess himself beaten, the applause
was deafening. My friend told me that
be felt rather small and regretted his
penchant for practical joking.
BEAUTIFUL SEVILLE.
There la A!war Scmrthinc A mutiny, no

The landlord at tbe Hotel da Pari
was vrry patient and pood humon d
with us, though we walked h'm uii
over his own house beftre we hcs a
room that opened upon a small, riar!;.
well-like court, full of palms and t ra:i;:e

delighted when lie foad that we were
satisfied. "You know," be told us, "I
always say that strangers who ecrac to
Seville iu tbe eomiuer tiiae in tut Le
mad."
Yet only in th? summer tiir.0 dees
one eoe the trt:e character of the coau
try, and more especially of Seville. The
town was as hot as, if not hotte r that),
Cordova. All justoek amusements weve
off for the time. There were no gyjisy
dances, no tail fights, but nothing could
have been gayer und more animated
than the raere aspect cf the place. Its
narrow alleyways, where the flower
laden balconies almost rcet above oar
bends, wre lined with houses, shining
white or 7aie rose or green or gold in
the sun lip lit. The market places wcro

or again it was a garden cf palms, a
hiph mirador, aflame with roses; a dark
interior, with oxen in the far shadows;
a lou arcad", making a frame for the
Moorish wall of the cathedral raosque,
and dwayi it was a long train of males

rlJJJfAAE OLDlEHS.
fHERE WAS VERY LITTLE SWEARING
IN THE ARMY OF THE UNiCN.
An Old 8oldler Takee laane With tbe
Aether of -Tl.e Red Badge of Cour
age" Camp Followera and Hanrrra Oa
Furnished the rrofaaltr of the War.
When the recruits of the First Maine
cavalry began to take on "soldier airs"
in their camp cn the Penobscot in
181, some of them assuming that
troopers should be men "full of stranpo
oaths," Colonel Douty promulgated au
aati profanity order. At first the edict
was received with considerable merri
ment, and expletives, innuceut iu them
selves though uu ant to do duty as oaths,
were fnvly used. Bat in a few days
iuspired by the precepts and examples
of certain self respecting eomraii.fi, tha
men took a nobler view cf it and the
"needless vice," as the historian cf the
regiment characterizes it, was effectually
pn'seribi'd.
The First Maine served lour yenrs
and earned a reputation for valor in the
field second to no other mounted com
mand. It brought home a flag uj:n
which were inscribed by official author
ity the names of 86 battles. But the
veterans were cot more pi-oud of their
martial honors than of their pood mor
als, fi they had won the honors and
the victory to crown them, swearire;
"not at all ;" that too, with a r
xnectal temperance pledge held iu al
most universal respect
The general over a divis"n cf I9.(X0
men who nipped the pn:faAig evil i.i
the buy by saying, "I will i.o the ha'cu:
ing for this entire command." was
more tactful in bis methods t h.v.i the
Maine cavalry colonel, a he needed to
be, dealing with strange troops, but be
was not a jester, neither a victi.a of
oven'onSdetice in himself. If miliary
necessity warranted violation of the b.'.v
he would be the judge. Cnd'T a leader
go clevtraud farsighted the crisis would
never arise. Only once during a long
service at the front wrviee rendered iu
two different regiments, diffen-nt bri
gades, divisions aud army corps did 1
hear an officer above the rank of e: p
tain give way to profanity. That once
was the case of a brigade ooiniuaiUkr
invoking the curse of Deity upon a ras
cally quartermaster. The quarternxsur
resigned on the spot and wert home,
thus removing what might have bvn r,
stumbling block from the path of many
besides the general.
I should say that the rascally quar
termaster and his close conconiitaiit.-i,
the stubborn army mule an 1 lbs ob
streperous teamster, furnished the chief
provocatives to swearing for sch'ior3 of
the line and that in the pr iiiet t
apart to their use region remote, from
battle and virtually outside of the do
main of army discipline oath? were
quite as common as they arc in tbo
pages of the "Ked Badge of Courage. "
Iu fact the manners as well as the lan
guago of the soldiers in that narrative;
suggest that the studies for it were
made from camp followers and the hang
ers on of the supply departments,
manned, as these were, by iioncombat
auts. Into that safe asylum drifts ac
cording to a well known law, thj slum
element cf an army ia the Cel.L
My ears still retain echoes of volleys
of oaths from tlia lip3 of two luoa of
that class whom I encountered ou th
peninsula in 1S02. Both were enlisted
soldiers and wore the blue. One of the
offenders acted as keeper cf the brigade
commissary ston-s. With him t he swear
ing habit win au infirmity, causing his
associates to overlook it through pity.
The other was a teamster, who had fal
lowed the sea until long rast middle
life. Swearing ia Lis case was a child
ish way of showing bravado. It is need
less to add that be was & hopelr cow
ard, and for that reason bad tx.cn detail
ed to stable duty.
By referring to the roster cf the com
pany in which I served in 1SC2-3 I now
recall the individuality cf b3 ccmrad' s,
and of that number recognize 35 who
did not use profane language ou any oc
casion. Of the remaining 23 only 11
can be indicted as possibly given to pro
fanity at times, and that solely on the
ground of their general nputatii n for
lightness cf morals. On tbo c-rpiraficn
of our term of enlistment, iu I ; 3. two
sergeautscf the company recruited a
command for tbe veteran cavalry s rv
ice. They bad the pick of 3t:u :r,'.:i
cants recently mustered oat from ti-.e
two years regiments and eiie.;,- ti: -lr
men strictly with regard to tlivir p: vi
ous records as gallant sol ;i rs. Win :i
the men earns together iu rai;p, it ap
peared that there was not c W!.c!.j
the 100 veterans so selected w h j used
profane or vulgar language.
A moment's reflection mast convin
every intelligent person that violent
language is subversive of all true disci
pline, and a successful army withont
discipline is an impossibility in this
age. The article of war prow rii-ivg
pn.fanity, promulgated, a? it was to
tvery new command and lead on j made
annually at Last was a protection for
the soldier and a moral w apen f r the
officer. The soldier could insist n;oa i:s
nbservanco by bis superiors. On the
other band, he weakened his own cause
whenever be violated the law himself.
At first blush the article seemed to
many obsolete and ridiculous and was
generally received as a relic of 4'uritan
days. But the more onerous and xact
ing a rulo the more it ie studied and
analyzed. Men of fixed habits obeyed
readily, setting a good example. Iu the
end wilder spirits found that obedience
was easier than resistance. Thus nt the
v ry outset the law of God was impressed
upon tbe understanding of all who
hadn't i written in their hearts

THE CHILDREN'S TABLE.
Fae'iil Sotxaatioaa For tha Hycleala Diat
of Childraa.
A few hinfc. s to what not to give
to young children may be helpful to
mothers, for children are creatures of
habit from earliest infancy, and if they
have formed habits of caring for cake
and sweets and n'fusiiig other food
who fault is it? How many mothers
give a child a slice of bread not only
thickly buttered but covered with a lay
er of sugar or jam besides? Was not the
bread good enough with either alone?
Such mother when remonstrated with
ajjswer, "Why, my child would not cat
bread and jam unless it were butten d
also. " That habit was formed in tho
child by the mother. Even young chil
dren are very shrewd ia dealing with
their c iders and will soon discover their
weak point Perhaps when there are
callers the mother, to avoid a scene,
gives a piece of cake, and this is adroit
ly made use of to secure a like favor at
a subsequent time.
Young mothers, do not allow yonr
own ease and comfort at tho moment to
cause your child to form a pernicious
habit, be it tho candy habit or the cake
habit Consistent firmness will spare
you a world of trouble and annoyance.
Of course a piece of light spongecake
will not hurt a well child, but let it be
given as a rare treat Never give any
kind of pastry. You and your child will
be happier for it. Neither are rich pud
dings and pudding sauces allowable.

THE COLOR OF THE EYES.
Dark Eyca Sadd to WSm Mora General
Among Woman Ttama Among; Ma
Into the realm of sentiment, with
heavy footfall, like a bull in a china
shop or an elephant among porcelain,
the sedate and matter of fact statistician
obtrudes himself, intent oa dealing,
through percentages, with matters
which one might ttink would tJ ex
empt from such pro?ic cons: leraticn.
The latest subjootsof statistical imjuiry
are light and dark eyes, and as th re
sult of sundry responses to questions
propounded iu various countries and
duly authenticated it has bet u discov
ered and tot merely discovered, but
also proved that, taking the average of
Europe and America, 44.6 is the per
centage of men having light ey s, in
cluding bine and gray. The proportion
of girls and women having blue or gray
eyes is by the same computation 34.2
per cent In other words, blue eyes are
decidedly rarer anion & women than
j among men, and it is for this reason
perhaps that blue eyes, especially ia
combination with blond hair, are es
teemed so highly as a fcatrre of femi
nine beauty.
Mea have light eyes oltenrr than
women, but in the intermcdiats grade
of color between light a:id dark tbo
percentage of the two sexes is very
nearly though not quite the same. In
this intermediate category are brown
and hazel eyes neither puro light nor
genuine black. The percentage of these
among men is 43. 1 and amog wonii a
45.1. Tbe percentage of dark or, moie
properly, black, eyes is larger among
woniea, being 20. 1 per cent of the w hole
number, while among men it is 12.3.
Perhaps it is the relative rarity of daik
eyes among men which establishes the
rule tha.t dark eyed laen are esteemed
by women to be taore fortunate ia the
color of their yes than Woe eyed men.
The figures npon which these percent
ages are based are the result of inquir
ies not proven ted hi one or more of tbe
countries of Europe or one or more
states of the United States, for, as is
well known, in southern Euroi"uu coun
tries dark eyes both among men ai:d
women predominate, while light eyes
are to be found in just as high a proior
tion in northern countries. New York
