EXILES IN SIBERIA.
Th» Pardoning I’ow«r—E»cap« Alino-
Impoaolble— Xuineronn Imjnlrlfi.
I was informed by a number of ti
govenfment officials in Siberia that tl
exiles were not sentenced for life, butfo
five years each. Just before the ex pin.
tion of his term of .absence a rejxirt upo.
his condition is sent to the pardonin,
power. If that report is favorable tl
prisoner is permitted to return to Russia
but if, on the contrary, the I.;pravnik rc
ports that his frame-of mind is not sue:
as to make him at present a safe mem
her of the community, the poor wretc!
is doomed to another five years' term an*
usually is sent still further away into th
wilderness.
In all the Siberian towns I found exile:
who had been in the country for variou
periods and not infrequently those wliost
terms had expired, but who still dwel
there, as during their long absence fron
Russia their homes had been broken up
their people scattered and nothing re
rnained of sufficient attraction to win
them from the rough lives to which the\
had become accustomed. In the large
towns and cities, such as Yakoutsk.
Irkoutsk. Tomsk, Krasnoryarsk, Tobolsk
and Toumein, many of the larger stores
and hotels are kept by exiles or ex-exiles,
and many have become vuluable citizens
of that still undeveloped country. Those
who are assigned to Oriental Siberia ar
rive in Irkoutsk, the capital, and from
theme are distributed to the more distant
points. Some are sent to the northern
and eastern towns, where they are per
mitted to do about as they please, to en
gage in business or in hunting and fish
ing, but are not allowed to leave the
districts. Others are sent to the mines
of tlie southeast and to the island of
Saghalien.
Escape is almost impossible, for every
person in the district is responsible for
the custody of the prisoners. No one can
travel anywhere without a road pass,
which states where and how he is going,
and. if toreturn, when. Any individual,
even the natives, can ask you for your
road pass, and if not satisfied, can cause
your arrest. Should a prisoner escape, a
heavy tax is put upon the entire district,
and that secures attention to their duty.
And vet the hope of escape is ever pres
ent. as long as youth and vigor last, but
finally the habit of life and of association
become so strong that few would care to
return to a country from which their
home had disappeared even if released,
and much less make an effort to escape.
I found myself an object of much interest
to the exiles wherever I met them, and
they invariably plied me with questions
concerning my journey from America
through the land of the Tchouktcliis. I
soon saw that in my case there was add
ed to the natural interest in seeing some
one who was not one of their jailers the
deeper interest of talking to one who had
traveled alone from a point but forty
miles from the “home of the free,” and
they reasoned that if he had come that j
way, depending upon the country for ■
subsistence, why could they not go to
America.in the same way? Then, too, I
was an American, and they believed that ;
to be an American was to be a Niliilist.
They were astonished beyond measure
when told that the only Nihilists and
Anarchists in America were foreigners.
—Col. \V. H. Gilder in New York World.
The Odor of a Russian.
Finmark is penetrated on the northern
coast by three arms of the Arctic ocean,
Porsanger fjord, Laxe fjord and Tana
fjord. We ascended the first for a dis
tance of fifty miles, discharging cargo
and a few Lapp passengers at a fishing
station. We took on board, however,
more passengers than we debarked, and
among them was a Russian. . Sly atten
tion was called to our Muscovitisli acqui
sition by the engine oiler, who had been
mv faithful friend from Tj-ondhjem, and
knew I was bound for Russia. As we
were sailing away from Sjelvik the oiler,
giving a tug at my hammock, said with
a twinkle in his eye: “Say, mister, have
you seed your Rqosli’n friend that’s come
aboard?' ’
' “No,” said I; “where is he?”
“Why, don’t yeh smell him? Don't
yeh know the Roosh'n smell? That’s
him by the galley door. When the wind's
in the east, the Norges smell ’em over the
Baltic.”
Rising on my elbow and casting a
glance over the intervening expanse of
unkempt heads and in the direction of
the galley, I spied my “Roosh'n friend,”
a tall, lank, shock headed, ill visaged
specimen, full of whisky, constantly
seeking and as constantly losing his equi
librium. He was soon near enough for
olfactory recognition, when I discovered
that the national odor of the Russ corre
sponds to that of Russia leather, and
comes from an oil of birch bark used in
tanning; so that all Russians wearing
anv leather about their persons are sure
to be impregnated with its peculiar smell.
—James Ricalton in Outing.
The Strung*; and Terrible Hysterical At-
fret an Called “Running Amuck.*'
“Running amuck” is a phrase derived
from the Malay word “amok” (“kill
ing”) and constitutes a well marked
hysterical affection of certain races in
habiting oriental countries. It is rarely,
if ever, manifested among the quiet tein-
;x?red Hindoos, and hut seldom among
the Indian Mussulmans, which, when
ever it does occur in Hindostan, th«
malady may generally be traced to the
abuse of opium or the extract of hemp
called bhang, ganja or cliarras. The
Hindoo toliacconist sells a special confec
tion made of bhang, opium, datura,
cloves, mastic, cinnamon and carda-
mums, which is mixed with milk and
sugar and eaten as a sweetmeat. Thi;
diabolical cake—known as majum—will
drive a man mad alxjut as soon as any
thing. With the Malays, however, who
have given a name to the terrible mental
aberration of which we speak, and who
are by far the most addicted to it of all
eastern people, there is seldom any
rucli explanation of the outbreak.
.Suddenly, without rhyme or reason,
a maji will spring up from his shop
board or his couch, draw his kris—the
wave hladed dagger which they all carry
—and, with a scream of “Amok! Amok!”
strike its point into the heart of the near
est wayfarer and dart down the crowded
bazar like the lunatic which he is, stab
bing and cutting on all sides. “Amok!
Amok!” issues from a hundred mouths,
and everybody hurries for a place of ref
uge, fleeing in all directions, except those
holder spirits who snatch up weapons of
defense and join the armed throng which
pursues the desperado. The fyath of the
chase is soon strewn with bodies of men,
women and children, dead or bleeding to
death, until some lucky shot or daring
thrust disables the murderer, who is
pierced with a dozen blades us soon as he
falls to the ground. Occasionally it
turns out that the ‘ ‘amoker’ ’ lias received
some personal affront or injury or was
hopelessly in debt or disappointed in love;
but more commonly there is nothing
whatever to account for the wild fury of
his proceedings, and the street sweepers
drag his carcass as carelessly away as if
a leopard had been slain in the public
streets. So ordinary, indeed, is the oc
currence that in many towns and cities
where there lives a large Malay popula
tion. an instnunent is kept in readiness at
every police station called the 4 ‘amoker
catcher.” It is something like an eel
spear with a very long handle, and so
contrived that two elastic pointed spikes
close around the mad man’s neck, and
secure him helplessly when the iron
prongs are pushed against the nape from
behind.
Neither rank nor wealth keeps a Malay
from this sudden gccess of homicidal
mania if he has the jjjjjjedisposition or has
been greatly excited. There was an in
stance at Salatiga, in the island of Java,
where the regent was celebrating the
marriage of two of his daughters, and
everybody was in a festive and joyous
mood. Just, however, at the gayest mo
ment of the ceremonies the regent’s
brother-in-law, a high official, came rush
ing through the procession, stabbing
everybody he could get at with his jeweled
kris. The regent himself, coming up to
inquire into the uproar, was killed by a
single thrust, and it was the brother of
tho prince who ran the “moker” through
tho back with a spear and brought him
down, yet not before he had slaughtered
nine of the palace people and wounded-
six others more or less severely.
It might he supposed that a race sub
ject to such ferocious fits would bo nat
urally excitable and nervous in manner;
but the contrary is the case. The Malay
is of all men the most quiet, dignified and
slow of speech and action in his ordinary
life. He seldom speaks loudly or quickly,
has the most courteous and even gentle
demeanor and quarrels very rarely with
his fellows. Yet he is coldly and silently
cruel; has no regard for human life and
derives from the Mohammedan faith,
which he professes, its bitterest and most
relentless dogmas. Once started on the
“death run’ r by insult, despair or some
brain trouble, his only thought is to “kill
and kill and kill, ” and in the fierce ex
ultation of Ids insanity he does not feel
the blow which lets out his burning blood
and puts a stop to his dreadful career.—
London Telegraph.
■Why Stao Wouldn't Marry Then.
She was an extremely pretty girl, even
for a St. Paulite, and her name—well,
society has 4 ‘got it on the list. ’ ’ She was
trying on the three-story-and-basement
hats now in vogue and chatting with a
friend who happened in the milliner’s at
the same time. * ‘Dear, ’ ’ said the friend,
“I thought you were to be married this
June.” “Well, I was to have been; but,
you see, Earl's so abominably short, and
we look absurd together with all my
swell hats. So I ju6t told him that I
loved him as much as ever, hut lie really
must wait till lower hats come in. Yes,
he was very unreasonable, but I was firm.
I told him I was really very sorry, but
there would be sure to be a reaction
against the high hats by next spring—
any way, willy nilly. I wouldn’t marry
him till they went out.”—Pioneer Press.
They Took in Boarders,
line years ago a missionary who was
ing in one of the noble old houses in
; Broadway, now given up to the
•est of the poor, found four. families
lg in one big room; .a chalk line
ked Tile division, each family having
corner. He asked oneoi the women
■ they managed to exist in such close
rters.
Sure, sir, we would get along ail
t if the family in that corner didn't
. in boardtliers. ”—The Epoch.
Needs of Civilized Dags.
There is a certain responsibility about
keeping pets that few people think of.
An animal whom we enslave and force
into an unnatural life for our own pleas
ure. has a right to demand of us as much
variety and happiness as we can give
him. Nothing short of absolute abuse
can be more cruel than to confine the
active, open air loving dog in a drawing
room with positively nothing to occupy
himself with but eating and sleeping.
There are two things which he should
always have, at whatever inconvenience
to his mistress—a daily run out of doors
(not an airing in a carriage), and always
free access to windows looking upon the
street. The civilized dog takes quite as
much interest as his mistress, when she
happens to be shut up iu the house, in
watching the drama of life as it unfolds
itself in the streets.
“It is not fashionable to lookout of
windows,” do I hear? Very true; but
the best trained dogs have a provoking
way of stopping just short of elegant hu
man manners. A very attractive sight
to me a few days ago was a pair of enor
mous young St. Bernard dogs sitting one
in each front window of an uptown resi
dence, looking with the most absorbing
interest upon the doings in the street.
They were a much more charming win
dow ornament than anything their mis
tress could have placed behind the
glass.—Harper’s Bazar.
Trip Around the World.
Ernest Michel, the noted French travel
ler who has just made a trip around the
world in ‘240 days, says that this journey
m.\y now be made much more cheaply
and comfortably than a few years ago,
and that* transportation facilities on sea
and land have so greatly improved that
i even this limited time affords many ad-
| vantages for study and deliberate siglit-
j seeing. As for the expense, lie says that
j the journey around the world can be
j comfortably made by those who know
j how to travel at a cost of a day. For
| §2,000 he says the trip can be made with
! the greatest comfort. His estimate, liow-
j ever, does not leave much margin for the
: purchase of knick knacks and souvenirs
' -of the jourrAy.—Nc w York %tn.
fhe Long, Dremrjr Task or Learning the
Intricacies of Port Navigation.
Pilots do not grow, they are made, and
a long, dreary task it is with some of
them in the making. A man may have
oeen an excellent seaman, a serviceable
mate, or even a good sea captain and then
make a very bad pilot. This sea life,
j knowledge and instinct, .other things
j equal, make him a better pilot. But the
! intricacies of port navigation require
! brighter, quicker, keener comprehension
than that necessary for handling a ship
where there is abundant sea room. The
rights of innumerable interests, the vaga
ries of tide and current, the ever chang
ing character of obstructions open ways,
all require special training and years of
most arduous acquirement.
But the original pilot material is
stumbled upon, not made! A “cub” or
a “boy.” as the apprentice is called,
whether 14 or 40 years of age, may have
come from any landwise calling with a
cruise or two at sea to his advantage; he
may have been the most wretched of sea
men, or even the most excellent of ship’s
officers tired of long cruises, or with
some other strong motive for compacter
life anchorage. But wise or ignorant,
old or young, he must serve a rigorous
apprenticeship of three years. This is
arbitrary, even though he became a ca •
pahle pilot in six months. Each boat’s
crew consists of a boat keeper, 6ix of
these ’prentice pilots and a cook. The
ambitious apprentice, as in any other vo
cation, is alert for every opportunity to
advance himself in actual knowledge and
skill, and the old heads in the business
easily select the man who is ready to en
dure any hardship, or assume any hazard
in the line of duty, for pure gaining in
knowledge or skill. For a while he may
get nothing but his food for his services,
though this is infrequent, the usual wages
ranging from $15 to $18 per month.
After the three years’ term lias expired
lie may apply for liis pilot license, or he
may already have become a boatkeeper.
If so, he lias secured an advance in wages
to about $25 per month, and lias got a
long way toward a place in liis vocation;
for these two boatkeepers are practically
the sailing masters of the pilot lioat, and
they are never expected to leave their
craft day or night so long as they hold
this responsible position.
In applying for his license as a pilot,
he is “hung up on the blackboard,” that
is, his application is bulletined at the com
missioner’s office for thirty days. Then
he is under fire of scrutiny and objection
as to fitness, and complaint as to charac
ter, if any of these faults exist. If he
passes this trial safely, he then meets the
ordeal of a regular examination by the
full board of pilot commissioners, to
which are added two old sea dog pilots
selected for their peculiar aptness in trip
ping up possibly unworthy applicants.
Nor does lie now become a full fledged
pilot. He still serves a probationary term
of two years as a journeyman. Al 1 this
time he is subject to the strictest espion
age and criticism upon his work, and is
given charge of only vessels of the light
est draught. Indeed, all licenses :ue
based upon certain draught, and the jour
neyman's license will not entitle him to
pilot a vessel drawing upwards of sixteen
to eighteen feef^ so that at best his pro
gress is painfully slow. After he becomes
a full pilot any inefficiency or the slightest
mishap is liable to cause hi6 suspension or
the withdrawal of his license altogether,
while, whether novice or pilot of a quar
ter century's actual service, his license
must be renewed each year, and then
only on absolutely unimpeachable good
standing.—Edgar L. Walceman’s Letter.

Two Warlike Names.
In a Massachusetts town there are two
young colored men, educated in the pub
lic schools and “well brought tip,” who
probably bear the most peculiar Chris
tian names, if they can be called Chris
tian names at all, that have been worn
since the Puritan times, when men re
ceived whole phrases of Scripture as
names in baptism, such as Fight-the-
Good-Figlit Smith. Shun-the-Ways-of
Evil Jones and Prat-Without-Ceasing
Johnson.
The name of one of these young men
is Army-of-the-Potomac Johnson—we
give another surname in the place of th
real one—and of the other Ninth-Corps
Johnson.
Both were born during the war of the
rebellion, when their father served or a
time in the Ninth corps of the Army ol
the Potomac. He was anxious to give
his sons patriotic names, suited to the
stirring times, and so named them after
what were to him the most famous mili
tary organizations in the world.—Youth's

The Chances of Life.
Nine hundred and ninety persons in
1,000 would sav that a baby in the cradle
would be likely to live longer tlmn a man
of 65, but statisticians prove indisputably
that 500 in every 1,000 infants die before
the age of 5 years is recorded, while out
of 1,000 healthy men at the age of 05,
more than 500 of them will be alive in
five, ay in ten years, or even a longer
time. So it.will be seen that a man of
65 may be considered younger than an
infant as far as his chances of future life
are concerned.—Chicago News.
