IS Decimating the Pnpiilatlon-Tilk Czar

Said to Amount to One Thousand
Million noubles.
Washington, Feb. 2. In response to
mhny sympathetlo Inquiries and proffers
of aid received from friendsin the United
States, the Department of State has re
ceived from Minister Smith at St. Peters
burg, an Interesting report of the actual
conditions of the stricken districts of
Russia, prepared from evidence of eye
witnesses and most trustworthy sources
of which the following Is an epitome:
. The thrrltory affected by the drought
compromises thirteen provinces of Euro
pean Russia, where the famine is general
and In five other provinces where It pre
vails In part, ,
The first thirteen provinces in area are
one-third greater than all Germany, the
population being about twenty-seven
millions.
This vnst section Is agricultural, and
the richest, and, . ordinarily, the most
fruitful soil of Russia ;
An official estimate of the number of
those without food or means of support,
who require aid, is given as 14,000,000
persons, and this is probably below the
true number.
The great proportion of peasantry Is
not provident. The peasants make no
savings, but live wholly dependent upon
yearly crops, hence long-continued and
wide-spreading drought leaves them sub
ject to outside relief.
Tho scarcity of provisions Is not tho
only misery of the people. The crops
are tho foundation of their whole eco
nomic structure. When their crops fail,
various evils follow. The government
loses revenue, and the peasants luck nil
the necessaries of life- clothing, fire
wood, farming Implements, subsistence
of horses and cattle, all depend upon this
resource, the crops. The taxes and
rental continue and it is as difficult to
get fuel ns food in some, sections.
Cold as well., as, hunger cause, terrible
suffering. Large numbers of persons
huddle together In some houses most
conducive to warmth, and thatched roofs
are torn off and tho straw fed to the
dying embers. Clothing is given away
for bread. . Horses and cattle are sacrl
flced. Fodder is as scarce as human
food, and in some cases horso fleaU has
been used for sustenance.
During the winter there Is no work,
and frequently fathers have left their
wives and children to fight the battle of
want alone, because they could do noth
ing and their absence would leave fewer
mouths to feed at home. The bread
many are eating is composed of wild
arrock, potatoes, chaff and leaves. And
these terrible conditions produce dlsense.
Within the radius of one mile there
are 120 cases of typhus, fever; pestilence
and hunger are dally gaining ground
and pestilence is declminuting the people.
The Russian Emperor has personally
given enormously, ,and all .qlaases are
giving according to their means. The
loss to the government revenue will be
at least 200,000,000 roubles, about $100,-
000,000 or more, while a conservative
estimate pt the loss to Russia,- in view of
all consequences, is placed at not less
than 1,000,000,000 roubles.

A Simple) Preservative to Give These
Stones a Bright Appearance.
Ono of tho most beautiful and costly
lets of pearl jowols ever made was an
heirloom In tho Egmont family, of Ilol
land,says a writer in Kate Field's Wash
ington. During tho war which led to
the establishment of tho Dutch republic
Count Egmont.of thai tlmp, pawned' the
jewels to the Venetian government for
a large sum of money, which was used
to further the efforts of the liberal
party. Afterward ilio pearls were re
deemed, and when a later Count
Egmont married the daughter of the
duke of Rlchcllou this magnificent
treasure was bestowed upon the bride,
who frequently displayed its Bplondor
at the court of Louis XVI. and Mario
Antoinette.
Everyone who knows the fragilo na
ture of pearls was astonished at the
freshness nnd purity of color of those

mont cxDlnlncd tho mvstcrv bv 1m-
parting the family rule concerning their
care, which was simply to inclose a
piece of the root of tho ash tree in the
box which held tho jewels.
Thcro seems to be no visible connec
tion between ash trees nnd pearls, and
Ituffon, the naturalist, who was told of
the recipe, said it was nil nonsense; but
tho fact remains that tho Egmont
pearls, which, had been treated after
that rulo for centuries, hnd never faded
or become tarrtlshed, while much newer
pearls had shown discoloration or lost
their luster after a fewyears' possession.
Tills rulo is like many other popular
prescriptions which are considered sup
erstitious, but which nevertheless are
founded upon an unfailing though un
discovered law. Tho wonder is how
theso mysterious alliances between
natural substances become known to
mankind.
SHIPS A HUNDRED YEARS OLD.
The Juno of TSeaumarls Was One Hun
dred aud Six Years Old Wlirn Wracked.
From tho tablo in tho last board of
trade reports respecting casualties to
ships, which shows tho ages of vessels,
it is surprising to And how very ancient
many of the craft qtlU' dolnp servlco
really are. Thirty-nine sailing vessels
are between fifty and Blxty years old,
eighteen are between sixty and seventy
years, thirty are between seventy nnd
ono hundred, uud six are actually
above a century old. While theso num
bers represent only a very small pro-
i pprtion of such ancient mariners still
"sailing tho wintry seas," it must not
bo thought thoy refor only to barges or
craft engaged In river or inland navi
gation. Tho Juno of Beaumaris, built ono
hundred and six years ago, met with
her mishap while on a coasting voyage,
and tho Endeavor, JMymouth, a still
older crafty in seeding to act up to her
name enmo 'to grief while on a.voyago
frdm Dunkjrlt. What is more surpris
ing still, the Same .casualty list contains
the namcs'.of two steunships, one above
eighty years und tho other abovo ninety
years old!
On consideration, however, It is ob
vious that theso vessels , must have
originally been built as sailing vessels,
as the periods named earry us much
farther back than the date at which
tho Sirius made her famous voyago
across tho Atlantic. With regard to
tho ancient sailing vessels, too, they
must have little or nothing of the
original structure left. As long as there
is one single plank, however, the vessel
retains her Identity.

iiT tho Injured.
New York, Feb. 2. A fire occurred
Inst night in tho rear four-story tenement
house at No. 87 Hester street, which was
occupied by eight families of Russian
Hebrews, numbering in all forty per
sons. The lire originated through the acci
dental upsetting of a kerosene lamp In
the apartments of Solomon Zullnsky, on
the second floor, nnd spreud with amaz
ing rapidity through the rickety, old
tenement.
The escape of the inmates by the stair
way was cut off and, panic Btrlcken,
they fled to the roof and to the Are
escapes.
Eight of them were so badly frightened
by the near approach of tho lire that
they lenped to the courtyard below.
All sustained serious injuries and
three of the Injured will die. Their
names and the character of their injuries
are:
Fannie Levi, 17 years old, three ribs
broken and one leg injured.
Louis Kaufman, IS years old, skull
fractured, several ribs and both legs
broken; will die.
Solomon Zallnsky, 38 years old, leg
broken.
Emanuel Grill, 22 years old, leg broken.
hauiuel Grill, 33 years old, leg broken.
Anna Goldstein, 55 years old, contu
sions of head and body.
Frieda Goldstein, 18 months old, com
pound fracture of the skull; will die.
The other tenants remained on the
roof and on the fire escapes from which
places they were safely rescued by the
liremeii when they arrived on tho scene.
The loss by lire amounts to about $1,000.
Later llebtcca Pomerantz, 20 years old,
was brought to the hospital severely in
jured. . i' had jumped from the fourth
btoiy of t i buiring bnildlug but hnd
been ciiriK', ii.j un adjoining house aud
loht Mirlil I'f tov a lime.
'llie pir, Mcmu at tho hospital found
that her injuries were of the most serious
character, her back having been broken.
She was hriektng from Intense paid but
the doctors could do nothing to relieve
her. She will die.
It was in, the midst of the excitement
that Louis Kaufman, who worked for a
cloakmaker on the top floor, jumped
from the lire esunpe on the fourth floor.
Solomon Z.illnski, in whosu apartments
the lire started and who was one of the
first to escape from the building, tried to
catch him. Both m;n fell heavily to the
ground. ,
Nearly every bone In Kaufman's body
was broken. His death, the physicians
at Gouverneur Hospital believe, is a mat
ter of a few hours. Zallnsky, who hero
ically attempted to save him, hud his
right leg broken.
A ratuer romantic feature of the nre
Is the history ot Miss Fannie Levi of No,
19 1-2 Bayard street. She came from
Poland only a few months ago and was
the afliauced bride of young Kaufman,
whom she was visiting when the lire
broke out.
He ran with her to the tire escape,
from which she jumped Immediately
after him. Both her legs are broken
and she was so badly Injured Internally
that the chances are that she and her
aftinnced husband will be united in
death. '
