Moreover, her sense of individuality grows and flourishes, and becomes so powerful that she is unalterably certain —untilit ts over—that her experience is an isolated and wholly remarkable one.

A Deputy Sheriff eventually becomes either oppressed or came in with a clean white shirt for Myer. The latter was called, but made noreply. And it took three men to put tre garments upon him, he not being able to help himself in the least. When his hands would be released they would fall to his side as if he had lost all use of his muscles. About 12:30 o’clock Myer was arous~ ed somewhat and was able to sit erect on hiscouch. He continucd to moan however, and his wailings :could be heard even beyond the barred doors. At 12:50, Deputy Sheriff Winchell entered the cell to read the death warrant. He urged Myer to brace up and die like a man, but the prisoner made no reply. When the reading had been concluded, two Deputies tock him by each arm andled him from the cell. He had to be supported, but when he camein sight of the gallows he gave down and fell tothe ground. He was ordered to arise but could not do so. Four strong men seized him, two by arms and two by legs. He was thus carried up the stairway leading to the gallows. He was placed on the trap in standing position, but at once fell to @ sitting posture. He was then raised and held erect while his legs and arms then adjusted the rope and toid Myer that if he had anything to say, now was his time. Myer only continued to weep and exclaimed: ‘SOb my poor wife!’ Napier then nodded, Deputy Sheriff Winchell cut the rope, and Myer shot through the opening.

In Moscow the number of shrines is so great and the sanctity of some cf them so overpowering that it must be difficult for the devout orthodox to get along the street. In St Petersburg the number is much less, but it is still sufficient to keep your tavostchik’s arms in tolerably active exercise. s One thing puzzled me much, In St. Petersburg tbe women very seldom crossed themselves. For one woman who would make the sign of the cross in passing the shrine of the entrance ‘to the Gostinnoi Dvor it would be made by a dozen men. In Moscow the women were more careful to perform their devotions, but in St. Petersburg the males were much more deyout to outward seeming than the women. Of the women who did obeisance to, the holy places in St. Petersburg all were poor. I did not see one well-dressed lady cross herself in the streets alk the time I was in Russia.

The scene about the ‘mine was heart-rending.

AFRICAN RACE OF DWARFS. Strange Little People Seen by Emin Pasha in His Explorations. One of the most striking things to be met with in the earlier pages of Emin Pasha’s journal is a reference toa report which is brought to him between Lado and Dufile, on the Upper Nile, that arace of dwarfs inhabit mountain caves to the west of Beden. They are said to be only forty inches high, of a brown color, and of great agility, to eat white ants and roots, and to shoot with very small arrows, which are poisoned and very difficult to extract. The pigmies he wasiinclined to regard as the remainder of a dwarf population which ages-ago spread itself over Central Africa. Four years later he himself comes upon some specimens of the Akka, a pigmy people divided into numerous small tribes, who lead a nomadic life in the Monbuttu country. One of these Akka “had a reddish but rather dark skin (probably dirt),was very prognathous, rather swag-bellied, but exceedingly nimble. His height was 3 feet 6 inches. His whole body was covered by thick, stiff hair, almost like felt, which was especially thick on the breast.” A gift fourteen years of age measured 8 feet 7-8 inch in height. . ‘These people are said to. be very expert hunters, but also very vindictive, so that the neighboring tribes are glad to let them have al! they want for maintenance in return forskins and feathers, the produets uf the chase, which they prosecute with be 7s and arrows alone. 4 Ghost and Bullet.

AFRICAN RACE OF DWARFS. Strange Little People Seen by Emin Pasha in His Explorations. One of the most striking things to be met with in the earlier pages of Emin Pasha’s journal is a reference toa report which is brought to him between Lado and Dufile, on the Upper Nile, that arace of dwarfs inhabit mountain caves to the west of Beden. They are said to be only forty inches high, of a brown color, and of great agility, to eat white ants and roots, and to shoot with very small arrows, which are poisoned and very difficult to extract. The pigmies he wasiinclined to regard as the remainder of a dwarf population which ages-ago spread itself over Central Africa. Four years later he himself comes upon some specimens of the Akka, a pigmy people divided into numerous small tribes, who lead a nomadic life in the Monbuttu country. One of these Akka “had a reddish but rather dark skin (probably dirt),was very prognathous, rather swag-bellied, but exceedingly nimble. His height was 3 feet 6 inches. His whole body was covered by thick, stiff hair, almost like felt, which was especially thick on the breast.” A gift fourteen years of age measured 8 feet 7-8 inch in height. . ‘These people are said to. be very expert hunters, but also very vindictive, so that the neighboring tribes are glad to let them have al! they want for maintenance in return forskins and feathers, the produets uf the chase, which they prosecute with be 7s and arrows alone. 4 Ghost and Bullet.
