Thc Government has spent more on this Exposition than it ha? ever ex pended before. First, it gave ifo?QAU?O to the general fund of thc Exposition, upon consideration that thc city bf St. Louis would raise $10,000,000.

Alexeieff, described by Senator Beveridge in his book, "The Russian Advance," ns "a master mind, a master will, altogether a mas terful mau," is the subject of an in forming article by Charles Johnston, in Harper's Weekly. Admiral Alex eieff has toiled for years' at the build ing of a new region of Russian influ ence, a region nearly as large as the combined area of France and Ger many, and with a fringe of possible future acquisitions many times great er, only to see the whole of his life work threatened with dissolution. "In this lifework," says Mr. Johnston, "he has accomplished miracles almost, fac ing conditions of great and unexpect ed difficulty, amid surroundings alter nately picturesque with the glamor of the East and squalid with iutrigue and physical wretchedness. Through all these difficulties Admiral Alex eieff has acted with constant resolu tion, force, rapidity, and constructive power. Youngest. Cavalryman o? Civil War.

N.RAYS AND DIGESTION. This Process CAUROS Their Kmission, ai . Does Muscular Activity? That tho. processes of digestion, as weil as mental aud muscular activity; seem td cause the omission of N-rays; is the conclusion reached hy M. Lani: bert, in France, after a series of inter; esring experiments. He believes that ! these curious rays are produced by I ferments, especially by those # con-j cerned in the digestion qi! albuminoid j matter. In his experiments on diges- ' tion, says a writer in Harper's Week- ! ly. M. Lambert placed it snia.i quantity ? of fibril, in tubes containing in One case activated pancreatic juice, and in another artificial gastric juice made by mixing live per cent; solution of pepsin with a 'foui.1 per cent, polution of hydrochloric nelli. From those" tubes tile Si-rays were emitted, and wore detected not only hy producing increased luminescence ol' a phos phorescent screen, but also photo graphically, thus removing the sub jective element from the experiment. As a result of these experiments, M. Lambcrt believes that in the course of digestion thc . fibrin undergoes strains which act to produce N-raye. Tresserons YUCK tiri.

Mr. Grosvenor devoted himself to a defense of the Republican party; Mr. DeArmond; he said, had indicted the leaders oh the Moor cf the House for an attempt to cover up crime. "What crime," Mr. Grosvenor asked, "has been committed in any one of the branches of the administration of the Federal government and by whom?" He sarcastically remarked that when a member of the House knew enough to hurl In the face of the majority of the House the charge that they were covering up and protecting crimes "he ought to know enough to make some statement that somebody, somewhere had committed some crime," "Why.are you opposed to investigat ing the Department?" inquired Mr. DeArmond. "For the manifest rea son," said Mr. Grosvenor, "that the De partment has been thoroughly Investi gated." Then, branching oft on the tariff, he called upon Mr. DeArmond to state what ought to be changed in the tariff. "There would be no ten of same item; no five of you that will come within 50 per cent, of lt, and none of you will agree upon all of the items of the tariff."

A sealing schooner, the Arietis, re cently sighted a mastless derelict ibout 100 miles southwest of Queen Charlotte islands; Although at first it was thought there was no one ort board, a figur? was at length made out crouching in a kneeling position at the wheei; The captain of the Arietis accordingly hailed them when within distance and proffered assistance. , Receiving no answer, however, and noticing that the steersman never shifted his position, he lowered a boat, and with some of his crew boarded the derelict. He found that the man was quite dead and had apparently been so for some time, hut his rigid hands. still grasped the wheel and guided the vessel on Its course. He had evidently been deserted by his crew in a storm> and as a last forlorn hope had lashed himself to thc wheei. Some food was found Close to him and also two or three bottles Df medicine, showing apparently that be v -, iii when his long watch began; The name of the schooner was the Gen Siglin, bound from San Francisco to Alaska.

Certainly if you touch one it will stick, and when you try to free yourself it will pierce your other hand as well. Each pen dent joint seems to reach out for the passerby, and the ground beneath the broad cholla tree is strewn with fallen fragments, many of which take root and grow. After one has felt the sharp spines through heavy boots and seen their* needle points,- it is a source of.con tinual wonder to see the wild cattle of Arizona quietly browsing on chol las. The phrase "cactus fed," as ap plied to Arizona, is not a figure of speech. During the years of drought thousands of cattle carry themselves over until the next grass by eating chollas. With their leathery tongues and lips they strip the spiny joints from the trunk and leave che wide spreading cactus a bare and woody skeleton. It is only the range cat tle; whose mouths have beeil harden ed on the thorny mcscjuite and iron wood browse, who will undertake to eat cactus, and cattlemen therefore often burn the thorns from chollas and n'opais iii order to tempt their more fastidious animals td eat.
