Moscow is like an immense village, and everything in is huilt broad, not high, because there is so much space to cover. The public squares, unpuved and surrounded by a little rim of cobbles, arc as big as meadows. The arcades and passages, with their cellars beloiv, their shops above, their glass roofs, are so enor¬ mous that they could hold the Passage des Panoramas and the Burlington Arcade and the galleries at Milan with¬ out (illing more than a corner of them. Colors shriek and flame; the Mas covite eyes secs only by emphasis and by contrast; red is completed either by another red or liy a bright blue. There ar( , n „ .shades, no reticences, no u j a fj ()nf . The restaurants are witli the diu of vast mechanical guns, with drums and cymbals; a great bell clashes against a chain on all the trams to clear the road; the music which one hears is a ferocity of brass. The masons who build the houses build in top boots, rod shirts and pink trousers; the houses are painted red or green or bine; the churches are like the temples of savage idols, tortured Into every unnatural shape and colored with glaring color. Rare feet, osier sandals and legs swathed in rags pass to and fro among the top boots of the middle classes, the patent leather hoots of the upper classes, like the inner savagery of a race still so near barbar¬ ism, made evident in that survival of the footgear of primitive races.—Satur¬ day Review. The Scnalc*. Hole In (lie Wall. When the nineteenth century was ns yet only half grown, senators applied customarily for their toddies at the so called Hole In the Wall, n small circu¬ lar room just olY the postoflice of the up¬ per bouse. The latter body, ns will be remembered, then occupied wliat is now the chamber of the supreme court, and the postoflice was across the main corridor of the building on the same floor. When n wearer of the toga found himself in need of a "shifter,” he had only to cross over to the mails department and pass through It to the little circular room aforesaid, which was about the sixeof ft pantry. The Hole In the Wall was the first senate restaurant, and the hill of fare for edibles was short, though to the point. There were ham. guaranteed to have been smoked for six months, a veritable sublimation of the pork prod¬ uct; likewise corned beef and bread and cheese, but very little else. They served, however, as an accompaniment for the fluids, and when the Hole was crowded, ns was often the case, sen¬ ators ate their sandwiches outside, In the postoflice.—Washington Post. He Obeyed. Murat Halstead, the great journalist of wartimes, went to General William T. Sherman's headquarters once for the “latest uews from the front.” Hal¬ stead was armed with many line in¬ troductory letters, but decided to rely mainly on one given him by Thomas Ewing, .Sherman's brother-in-law. lie found the general and presented Ewing's letter. The general opened it somewhat impatiently, read a few lines, folded It and said; “Ah, you come from Ewing, and you desire to have ‘all the latest news,’ the ‘next probable move’ of our army, eh? Well, there’s a train leaving this town for Cincinnati at 2 o’clock. Here, take this ticket, aud step over there and get your dinner, and then get on that train.” “Well, but. General Sliennau”— be¬ gan the newspaper man. lint Sherman waved him off. “Go over and get a good dinner; we have plenty and always strive to treat our friends well. , But be sure you don’t miss that 2 o’clock train!” Aud Halstead wisely obeyed.

He had studied all the rales of cour¬ tesy laid down for conductors and had profited by them, lie did nut intend to be caught napping. • “What ear is this?” asked the sweet young thing. He doffed his cap aud gave her a Chestertteldiau bow. “Madam,” he said, “this is ear No. S19.” “I mean.” she explained, “what Is its destination?” “Madam.” he answered with the same courtesy, “it affords me pleasure to be able to inform you that Its des¬ tination is the car bam."—Chicago Tost. j m j j 7 m k % 1 (vT\ WX\y\\\yXv m Tim Kind Ton Have Always Rouglit, anil which has been, ia use for over SO years, has borne tlic signature of and has been made under his per¬ S7 sonal supervision since its infancy.
