j flLEXANDROVITCH j 9 By WILLIAM II. OSBORNE $ O ....Copyright, 1000, by T. C. McCluro.... Q Alcxandroviteh was n man with n memory?a memory of death. Alexnndrovitcli wns still young, almost a boy, but he was younger then, when he had met death and walked part way with her hand in hand. It was summer now, but then it had been winter. Alexandrovitcli, for the nonce cast out of good employment, had started in on Shaiikowitch's mare to trudge from one village to another, He did not make a fine appearance altogether. Ills clothes were thin, and he had tied his hands and feet in burlaps?burlaps picked up in the gutter? nnd ho had started off. Remember, this had been some years ago. lie had ctnrfn/l m.t l./,n,1i..? I.So 1 1" ouiiiwi vut| kj\snviiii^, nn iiiu^v uiiii nuuj to the gale, pressing on In the teeth of the wind. He had started out; tlmt was all. lie remembered but little else, for ho was but one-third of the way out of Nodolosk when the blizzard struck him. But on he went, running briskly to keep the blood warm in I1I3 liiubs and following the road as best ho could. And then there had come a time when he felt his very soul freeze within him. He cried aloud in agony. But ho pressed on. Suddenly all this was changed. In place of the cold a drowsy warmth spread over him. lie thought that lie was lying wrapped in furs before some great log lire. Bed (lames danced before his eyes. Alexandrovitch thought that he danced and laughed nloiul, lie felt so comfortable. But lie did ndt. He was simply staggering through the deep snow, his head lolling from side to sfde and his dark eyes staring at vacancy. Finally he pitched headforemost. "Ah," muttered Alexandrovltch to himself pleasantly, "this is indeed a bed of down! Now shall I sleep and sleep and sleep." * And Alexandrovltch slept. And the blizzard roared about him. It was a strange thing that but twelve feet tc the right of Alexandrovltch there was a small cottage, almost covered with the snow. Inside was a young girl, the daughter of Abmin Snratovsky. Saratovsky was a Jew, a Russian Jew. There was but one window to this cottage, and in this window sat the younjj girl, closely wrapped up in n rug, foi the cold entered and tlie snow drifted in through the pane of glass. She was peering: out, watching the storm. Now the snow dashed against the house and blinded lier. Then with a sudden gust it would blow away and open ur a wide vista outdoors. During one ol these swirls the girl caught a glimpse of something dark that lay prone upon a bed of snow. She shuddered. Tills girl was alone. The family had gone to market at a nearby village. There they would stay until the storm hue] spent its force. Anna Sarntovsky peer ed out at the dark spot In the snow Obeying n suelden Impulse, she rose and ventured to the door. Then she re turned. "It Is nothing," she assured herself "It is not a man. I am seeing sights It is the storm." Again she peered out "It is?it is n man," she exclaimed tc herself?"a man who will surely freeze to death!" She gathered her rug close about lier Then with sudden energy she threw open the little door and staggered, buf feted by the storm, across the space of twelve feet. It might just as well have been twelve yards. The storm which had designs upon Alexandra viteh, prevented her from reaching him. But only for a time. Making ai; extra effort, she east off the rug thai hampered her, and then, with u suddei: leap, she plunged forward and fel prone upon the dark object by the road side. The object stirred. "lie is alive." exclaimed Anna Sara tovsky?"alive, and I must save liim!" The next few moments made a wo man out of n mere girl. The work ol ljk those few moments was the work of r lifetime. But she did It. Fifteen min utcs Inter Anna Saratovsky was rub IT'S A STAYER. Comes Quickly, But It Comes To Stay, how A Union Citizen Got Rid Of It. Comes early, stays late.

At last she was rewarded. J Alexamlrovitch slowly opened his eyes j and looked into the face of a beautiful young girl. "You are one of the angels up in heaven," ho murmured. She shook her head. "I am Anna Saratovsky," she answered. And all this was some years ago. In Anna Sarntovsky's village Alexnndrovltch lived and moved and had his being. lie was a Russian, and she was a Jewess, but to him slio was one of the angels up in heaven. . ) It was early summer In the village. One night without a sound 200 men stole each from his house and met unj tier cover of the darkness In the mar! ket place. Suddenly a mighty shout | wont up from them. s j "The Jews! The Jews!" they cried, i "Death to the Jews!" That was the j beginning; after that, battle, murder, ! sudden death, blood ar.d lire, lire and i blood. The men were Russians; their neighbors were the Jews. Each man turned upon his neighbor; each man i armed himself and struck anil stfuck I and struck to kill. They entered home , 1 after home, dragging the innocents in! to tlie streets and slnusrhteriii!? them like cattle. Alexandrovitch was a. Iiusslnn. lie, too, sought si house. lie was almost too late. Two people of the name of Saratovsky lay weltering In blooil. They lay there at their doorpost, where Alexandre vjtch had lain so many months before. Alexandrovitch looked upon thcin. His heart bled with pity. "If one could only have foreseen all this!" he cried. "If I could have but known!" lie shuddered not with fear, but with dread. He heard footsteps In the house. "Anna?Anna Saratovsky!" he cried , in a low voice. lie hoard an inarticulate sound. Alexandrovitch strode over , the dead. He sought the living. He , peered into the house. In a corner a silent struggle?a struggle to the death ?was being fought. It was a young girl, Anna Saratovsky, gagged, but ( with free hands that she had torn clear cf their bonds, lighting for dear life against two men. It did not last long, for Alexandrovitch was there. He , sprung into the midst and struck out right and left. ( "So, so, IJoroskl," he cried to one of the men. "It is you who are the dast tard. That for you. Itoro.dii! And that for you, Mongolovifch!" These two men were men that Alexnndrovltch knew as well as ho knew his brother, but It was all one now, , for there was murder hi the heart of | Alexaudiovlteli, even as there had been L murder in the heart of the two men, i for Alexandrovitch was lighting for , something more than his own life, and , ho was a maniac lor the Instant?a ' wild beast. Finally ho drew his hand ( across his brow and turned to Anna . Saratovsky. Then he steppe d back and *, opened a rear door. "Anna Saratovsky," he said, "thy fa, thcr and thy mother are beyond ail , aid; none can help them now. We must | even leave them where they are. The [ Holy Mother will protect tliom. Come thou with me, Anna Saratovsky." lie did not give her time to hesitate. lie i caught her in his arms and forced her through the open door. "Fly, Anna Saratovsky!" ho whispered In her ear. "Fly, for the tlylng death comes after lis." It was a wild flight. that night of the J dread massacre. But at last the two ; had left pursuit behind. As the day began lo break Alexaiulrovltch reached forth his arm and lifted from the \ ground the form of the fainting girl. Then with ids precious burden he , struck across the country? He reached j a small, secluded and deserted stable. With the girl still in his anus lie enter| ed. They crouch; d there in a corner. , Suddenly the girl b.uvv into hysterical | weeping. "My father and my mothj or'" she exclaimed. "My father and my mother 1" Alfecandrovitch comforted her. There was a long silence between them. Suddenly A loxandroviteh bent down ills head. "laitie one," he whispered, "thou art alone in this wide world. Thou didst save 1110 once from death. ^ My life belongs to you and yours to"mo. t Let us go through life together, little one. Today our faith is one?our creed Is love." Anna Saratovsky clung to him. "Whither thou goest," she whispered, "I will go. Where thou lodgcst I will lodge. Thy people shall be my people, thy God my God." : DANGER SPOTS IN A STORM. I'laccN to Avoid When tlie Lightning; Is Kliinhinff. Out of doors trees should ho avoided In a thunderstorm, and if from the rapidity with which the explosion follows the flash It Is evident that electric clouds are near at hand a recumbent posture Is the safest. It is seldom dangerous to take shelter under sheds, carts or low buildings or under the arch of a bridge, and a distance of twenty or thirty feet from tall trees or bouses Is nn eligible situation, for should a discharge tnko plnco theso i elevated bodies are most likely to rej celvo it. 3 It Is well also to avoid water, for It r Is a good conductor, and tlio height of - a human being near the stream may 1 determine the direction of a discharge. ? Within doors wo are tolerably safe in ' the middle of a carpeted room or when j standing on n thick hearth rug. The j chimney should bo avoided on nccount j of tho conducting power of tho carbon 9 deposited in it, and gilt moldings or 3 beii wires nro sources of risk.

"You don't have to skirmish around much to get feed to fatten one of these hemlock porcupines on." says an old woodsman. "Just sprinkle some salt over a stick of cordwood or saw log for that matter, and he'll eat the whole business and enjoy it as you would minee pie." The customary diet of these animals is hemlock browse. They make themselves a homo in a hollow log or under the roots of some oid tree, but always within reach of a big hemlock. The hemlock I . llv'r pasture, and they make beaten paths going to and fro between the tree and their home. Once up in a tree the porcupine goes out on the big limbs and, pulling the small brane'"'. in with one paw, browses ot> ' .n.gvnt leaves. In going throu .. li.o \\*>ods you will find littfo p } of these fine loaves on (lie ground under hemlock trees. That means that a poreflpino is feeding in the tree, the Jonves on the ground being dropped from his feast. Sometimes a porcupine will remain tn a hemlock tree for a week at a time, hugging close to the trunk nt nlirlit and feeding during the day. This curious littlo boast la tho only known living thing that cats tho foliage of the hemlock. > More Riots. Disturbances of strikers are not nearlj as grave as an individual disorder c>1 the system.

"You know, shot is made by pouring a melted composition of lead and arsenic through a screen or from a big ladle with a serrated edge at the top of the lower and letting it fall into a tank of water.

A marvelous phase of hoe life is the power which they pon.-css to raise queens, or UvVlWiStMioos, from eggs or very young brood that would in the 1 ordinary course \. produce workers, r which are neuters, or undeveloped fei nudes. If by any chance a queen is killed or ; lost the whole colony would perish were it not for this wonderful provision of nature. Much perturbed at first at their loss, the bees after some hours settle down and deliberately build a pear shaped structure known i as a queen cell. This is much larger : than an ordinary cell, rough, irregular and strong. ; In this the selected eggs, or larva\ arc lavishly supplied with "royal jelly." which is highly stimulative and In which the baby queen literally boats during her period of growth. The result is thaj^ certain organs and ovaries which remain dormant in a work, er bee are perfected, and the new queen hatches out in about fifteen [ days, or six days sooner than the i workers.?London Answers. i lleutldrcMMCM In Africa. | The married women and the men of the upper Mobangi wear their hair , long and in braids, which are profusely adorned with colored beads woven In and out among the locks.

The Talisman reports that "recently a < vference of representatives of -50 or 500 lodges from all parts of the state of California was held, and volunteer contributions aggregating $-0,000 wore asked and will probably be given for the entertainment of the sovereign grand lodge next September." "Suspension for cause" or "expulsion" of a member by the subordinate lodge severs the connection of that member with his encampment. A visitor may he received within the lodge and comfortably seated and yet not feel at home. Only the members can give him this home feeling. They should treat him as they would wish to he treated themselves were their places reversed and they visiting his lodge. Baltimore City lodge keeps a record of its members at each meeting, and it is interesting at the end of each year to read of those who were faithful in attendance. The Odd Fellows of Laurel.

In the past year 28,HOT new members joined the Royal Arcanum. During the year 1002, 002 members were reinstated, 7,70." lapsed and 2,582 died, leaving a not gain of 29,-118. Two members of the Royal Arcanum lost their lives in the Iroquois theater disaster. This year the supremo councils will meet in St. Louis on May IS. Nearly every Areanuinlto in" Greater New York is interested in the work of the Royal Arcanum Rowling league of that city, thirty councils this year having teams in the league. In 1897 the grand regent of the state presented the Royal Arcanum bowlers with a handsome trophy, making ti condition that no team could become the permanent owner. Reports being received show the order's twenty-first anniversary was enthusiastically celebrated by camps all over the country. On this occasion a number of camps initiated large classes of candidates, in some cases as many as 300 joining one camp. The Modern Woodman camp instituted in Washington is rapidly increasing in membership. Many congressmen nre Modern Woodmen and visit the camn. The best results enn be obtained by members and deputies working together in enthusiastic co-operation. Reports from all over the United States show a steady gain in membership.
