Inventive) Canine la Streaks.
One of the leading authors of the pres
ent day has remarked that "genius comes
In shoals." There Is a depth of truth in
the remark, says a contemporary, which
mnst at once be patent to all who are fa
miliar with the history of our country, and
in no field of inquiry does the fact stand
out so prominently as la the great out
break of inventive genius by which oar
country Is distinguished. The Elizabethan
age was characterised by a shoal of dra
matists, next we hare a shoal of essayists
witn the amiable Addison at their head,
and down through the years until what
Carlyle has called "the mechanical age"
set in. The birthday of the manufactur
ing supremacy of England was undoubt
edly the 5th of January, 1769, when
James Watt announced his patent "for a
method of lessening the consumption of
steam and fuel in fire engines." This
was the source and sustaining power of
mechanical energy whose action quickly
changed the face of the world.
The Inventive ralrMs frilled in a shoaL
and before half a century elapsed England
was In possession of the most mechanical
appliances. Since Uie commencement of
the "mechanical ageu the aspect of the
country has been changed. In districts
like the "Black Country," where nothing
formerly appeared but rural scenery, great
manufacturing establishments have been
erected, towns raised, and the roar of fur
naces, the noise of machinery, the buzz of
reels, and ceaseless activity sow diversify
the scene where nothing wo formerly
heard but the purling steam or the howl
ing of the tempest. Not only do the
inventive minds come in shoals,
but shoals of Inventors who con
centrate their united energy on some
special branch of mechanics or science are
every now and then springing up, and in
vention follows Invention with surprising
rapidity. These inventions are always
shifting; at one time there is a run for Im
proved furnaces, at another Improved
modes of constructing ships; then comes a
change to machinery, or some matter of
great public interest, like the rivalry In
the improving of the different systems of
electric lighting. Not only do inventions
shift from one branch of science and me
chanics to another, but at times a lull
comes over one country and a great out
break of Inventive genius breaks out in
another country. Scientific American.

Newsboys and Ilootblacks.
My extensive dealings with both newt
boys and bootblacks have convinced me
that there Is no honester class than they.
The other day I gate a newsboy fifty cents
to change, and he went from place to place
nntil he was out of sight, but seemlDsly
could not get the change. In a little while
he came panting up the street with the
change and said he was sorry to keep me
waiting. The fellow with the swell boot-
blacking establishment borrowed my knife
to scrspe the real estate off my shoes, and
I went away and forgot It. lie handed it
over next day without a murmur. Some
times the boys haven't change and some
times I haven't, but we repose a mutusl
confidence in each other and never get
cheated.
There Is a lame newsboy from whom I
generally buy my evening papers. He
seems to have an implicit trust in my hon
esty that I have always admired and won
dered at, for I flatter myself I know my
self much better than he does. He Is
gruff, but exceedingly honest. One time
I bought the two papers from him and
gave him five cents. He did not have the
one cent change. He said he would pay
it next day. I thought at the time he
wouldn't, but I said nothing. Next day I
left for Europe. I was gone eight months,
and constant association with the mon
archs of that variegated continent gradu
ally obliterated that one cent from my
mind. The day after I got back I was
sitting in my office when he hobbled in,
and in the calmest manner, as if It were a
mere trifle, laid down the coin on my desk
and said, "Here's your cent." Luke

The extreme sensitiveness of the French
character was amusingly illustrated as I
recollect some years ago in the Pi reus c
Athens, where a vast number of ships of
war of all nationalities were assembled,
awaiting events after the flight of King
Otho and the coming of the present mon
arch, who was then Prince George of Den
mark. Amongst the English squadron
was a line of battle ship named Con
queror, which had for a figure head a lion
trampling on a rooster. The ships were
very close together in the Pineu, which
Is a small harbor, and it happened that
the Conqueror was moored next to the
flagship of the French admiral, and that
regularly every day that officer was per
force compelled to see the Conqueror fig
ure head right outside his stern galley.
The contemplation became so annoying to
him that he actually wrote to the Kngllsh
admiral, and requested that the objec
tionable figure head might be removed.
Of course, this could not very well be
done; but in order to smooths matters the
Conqueror was ordered awsy to the Isl
ands of the archipelago, and on her re
turn, some weeks later, was, much to
the disgust of her officers, made to anchor
in Salamls bay, about six miles from the
city, so as to be out of the way of exhibit
ing her aggravating figure head to the
hypersensitive Frenchmen. New York
Truth.
A complete stagnation threatens tbe
Russian press, ll is not because nowa
days there are no able writers In Russia.
The trouble U thai theresent minister of
the Interior, Count D. Tolstoi, has sucv
ceeded In abolishing all the noted Journals
conducted by talented and Independent
writers. The list of the periodical publi
cations that have been suppressed daring
the last six years is far more intervene c
and valuable than all the papers now liv
ing. Now there is no originality about
Russian journals, no freshness and none
of that domestic stirring interest which
in the davs gone by used to so much at
tract attention in all parts cf the crest
empire.
The su-pernled Golos (The Voice) has
left fully 0,000 subscribers without any
paper to their taste, for none cf them dare
to defend the constitutional form of the
government as The Golos did. In the
sixties, when the c tar-libers tor tried to
free the press from the iron grip of the
censor. Nicholas Tchernyhevky started
The Contemporary Iteview, a monthly in
which he taught the Russian public for
the first lime to conscientiously criticise
the government measures. It Is impos
sible in this country even to imagine
what a whirlwind of public opinion he
rabed as by magic But even the Lber
ator could not long stand such freedom of
discussion, and Tchernyihevs ky was sent
to Siberia for seven years and kept there
for fifteen. Rut the martyrology of the
Russian editors and writers is too long to
be given here.
The number of periodicals Issued ia
Russia amounts to a little over COO. As
the population of the czar's empire Is
lfAOuO.OQO, It is evident then that it takes
173.000 Russian subjects to support one
periodical, whereas in the United State
every 4,000 souls support some publica
tion.
RUSSIA'S 400 PERIODICALS.
Putting aside 200 periodicals published
In other than the Russian language, the
400 Russian periodicals are elassiScd as
follows: Daily, W; weekly, $5; monthly.
87; several times per week, 40; several
times per year, 1S1 Nearly one-half the
Rnian periodicals are published ia th
capital of the empire. St. Petersburg, and
one-third In seven of the largest towns,
leaving for the rest of the great empire less
than 1U0 i-erimlicala. In the czar's conntry
there are many towns of 10,000, 20,000,
or even 40, fX) Inhabitants which have not
a periodical of any kind. Th whole of
Siberia, with 4,lM),000 of population, has
only two newspapers and bi-monthly of a
geogrsphlcal society.
According to the official statistics fur
nished by the post department last year
In Russia there passed through the mail
about 77,500,000 copies of Russian peri
odicals of all sorts, and 4,500,000 of for
eign periodicals were received ia Russia.
Thus it appears that there is not for each
subject of the czar daring a year even a
single copy of any periodical, Russian or
foreign.
Why Is the Russlaa press so insignifi
cant as to Its volume? Some say It Is be
cause fully H) per cenL of the Russians
are illiterate. Rut If the educated and
schooled Russians would read newspapers
as freely as Americans do, then ia Russia
there would be 5,lM) periodicals Ins tesd of
COO. There are other causes that make
the czar's country almost newsps per less.
In the first place, there is no political life
at all, and the industrial life there Is
in Its embryotic state. Russians have
not so much news to exchange as th
people in other countries hsT. In th
second place, the autocratic government
systematically and most strenuously op
poses the growth of the press. Czars have
always been aware that writers, even
though ia the clutches of censors and
under political supervision, are apt to
think for themselves, to argue and to
criticise. Thus they develop la them
selves and In their readers th qualities
roost decidedly objectionable la Imperial
subjects. Every job printer la Russia
must procure a police certificate of good
character and furnish bonds, and every
publisher, besides these qualifications,
must maintain an Imperial Inspector at
his own establishment.
In Russia every editor of prominence
must pass a part of his life In prison. If
we add to that the fatal ministerial warn
ings, prohibition of inserting advertise
ments, heavy fines and suspension, w
shall wonder not that there are so few
periodicals, but that among Russians
there are men and women ready to enter
the career of journalist, which ranks la
danger next to that of conspirator. M

Power of a KJad To lea.
There Is no power of love so hard to get
and fceep as a kind voice. A kind hand is
deaf and dumb. It may be rough la flesh
and blood, yet do tbe work of a soft heart
and do It with a soft touch. But there Is
no one thing that love so much needs as
a sweet voice to tell what It means and
feels; and it Is hard to get and keep It In
the right tone. One must start In youth
and be on the watch night and day, at
work and play, to Ret and keep a voice
that shall speak at all times the thoughts
of a kind heart. It Is often In youth that
one gets a voice or a tone that Is sharp,
and sticks to hi si through life, and stirs
up 111 will and grief, and falls like a drop
of gall on the sweet Joys of home. Watch
it day by day as a pearl of great price, for
It will be worth more to yoa la days to
come than the best pearl bid la the sea.
A kind voice is to the heart what light Is
to the eye. It is a light that sings as well
as shines. Elihu Burrltt.
A. Doatoa Boy's Tops
One top Is named Stonewall Jackson,
because, of aa unconquerable tendency to
"ride ahead" of the rest. This nam
shows thst "Barbara Freltchie" has stack

Another long legged top, which has a de
cided preference for a stationary attitude
la spinning, and wears aa aspect cf pa
tient, smiling dignity, ls named Gea.
Grant, because, it ownet said. It sug
gested to him Gea. Grant 'slttlnjc la his
window and smiling down cm th chlldrta

dent of tbe general's last illness which
had impressed th small boy's imagina
tion. There Is a certain battered old top,
seamed with lashings and perforated with
hostile peg holes, which nevertheless He
very close to it owner's heart, and which
proudly bears tbe deslgnstlon, alwsys
quoted at its full length, of "Daniel Web

the name of iVgasus, a title which th

To Prevent Collisions.
I Two German Inventors are credited
with having devised aa arrangement la
the shape of an automatic electric alarm
bell calculated to prevent the collision of
two trains on the same track. More than
this, the invention enables a train la
motion to remain In telegraphic com
munication with the station at either end,
la about the same way as do the Phelps
and Edison telegraphs. Finally, the In
vention admits of the transmission of dis
patches to passengers la the train, and
enables the roadmaster to ascertain at
any time whether the track Is clear with
out being obliged to inquir of the neigh
boring stititns Chicago Herald.
JCapotaoa on English Society.
The English sppear to prefer th bottl
to the society of their ladies. This is illus
trated by dismissing the ladies from th
table and remaining for hours to drink
and Intoxlcste themselves. If I were ta
England I should certainly leave th tabl
with the ladies. Were I aa English
woman I should feel very discontented at
being turned out by th men to wait two
or tare hours wt.il they are drinking.
