PEOPLE or THE DAY
The Making of Alexeieff.
Admiral Alexeieff, supreme com
mander of Russian war forces, naval
and land, in the far east, rose from the
ranks in the Russian navy. He lirst
attracted attention while in this coun
try, a young lieutenant without in
fluence and without family. He had
landed at San Francisco from a cruise
In Alaskan waters ou the battleship
Rurick, when war was imminent be
tween Russia and Great Britain over
the Balkans. He at once cabled to the
Russian naval office asking permission
ADMIRAL, ALBXEIKKF
to purchase iu this country u number
of vessels to be used ns commerce de
stroyers to prey on English commerce
and received a reply to the effect that
there was not time for the deal. Alex
eietf telegraphed back a respectful
message to the effect that he perhaps
knew the situation better iu America
than it was known in Russia und re
ceived the uecessury permission. In
ten days he had purchased eight ships,
and although the war cloud soon blew
over, the incident was the making of
Alexeleff. Upon his return to Russia
he was given command of a ship, and
in three years he was an admiral.
Foster and Hanna.
Volney W. Foster, at whose request
bills have been introduced in congress
to provide for arbitration of labor dis
putes, is assistant treasurer of the Re
publican uutiouul committee. No one
connected with the committee has been
a more ardent admirer of the late Sen
ator Hanna, who was chairman of the
committee, than Foster. Foster was
not the choice of Hanna, but the sena
tor learned to appreciate the assistant
treasurer during the lust campaign.
There Is an Interesting story about
the manuel’ in which Foster was
chosen. It was found necessary to
have an assistant treasurer, and Pres
ident McKiniey suggested Foster to
Hanna. The chairman sent for Fos
ter in Chicago and said:
“McKinley wants you for assistant
treasurer. I know half a dozen men
in Chicago that I would rather have,
but as you are McKinley’s choice I
have appointed you.”
“Well, you are delightfully compli
mentary,” reported Foster. “If It were
you that wanted me I wouldn’t touch
the place, but I want to do something
for McKinley, and I am going to serve
him In the place he wants me whether
you like it or not.”
Before the campaign was over these
two men who began their association
rather inausplclously became the beBt
of friends.
9hafroth's Unique Action.
John F. Shafroth of Colorado enjoys
the unique distinction of being the only
man who voluntarily relinquished a
seat in the congress of the United
States because of evidence of fraud In
the returns by which be was elected.
Mr. Shafroth served the First (Denver)
district of Colorado in the Fifty-fourth.
Fifty-fifth, Fifty-sixth and Fifty-sev
enth congresses. His contestant for the
seat in the Fifty-eighth congress was
Robert W. Bonynge, who filed a pro
test against the returns as made by the
JOHN r. HHAKKOTH
Colorado secretary of state. The con
teat took the usual course at Wash
ington, and when the Investigation
made by the house elections committee
revealed fraud and the evidence was
on Feb. 15 laid before Mr. Shafroth
that gentleman arose In the house and
asked that the committee present a
resolution seating Mr. Bonynge, which
was done.
The Swiss President.
There is a new president In Switzer
land every year. And every year the
new president is the promoted vice
president of the year before. This
year be Is M. Bobert Comtesse.
M. Comtesse wears a tall hat tilted
on one side to show he is no patrician.
He make# everybody like him. His
manners are most ingratiating and his
eloquence altogether irresistible. Be
sides, he has a splendid education,
iyhlch he received in Neuchatel, Hei
delberg and Paris.
He U fifty-seven years old aud at the
very height of his powers.

CARRUTHERS' LUCK
When Vivien Dawnay Jilted young
Carruthers all his cynical friends de
clared that it was a blessing in disguise.
Carruthers was neither comforted by
j consolation nor hardened by cynicism.
! He had loved earnestly, and his
( wretchedness was in proportion. The
sting of stings lay in the fact that Viv
ien Dawnay had thrown him over for
mere money. She was now Mrs. Jes
sup.
As regards Jessup, he had a huge
factory on Long Island, a mansion up
town and a villa at Newport. He was
not of society, but he was gradually
entering the mystic circle that rings
society around. To pass the boundary
with due eclat he deemed himself in
need of just such a wife as was Vivien
Jessup. So it came to pass that there
occurred a business transaction be
tween these two. For his money and
his potentialities Miss Dawnay bar
tered her youth, her beauty and her un
deniable descent from Pocahontas. Ac
cordingly they were married, and
young Carruthers fancied that this
mere “curtain raiser” of his life was
all his world's drama.
Carruthers was in a fair way to go
to the devil when Vivien Dawuay Jilt
ed him. He did not go thither, how
ever, but to war insteud. It was the
war of those days. Some nervous
courtier of the emperor of Mandalay
had unwittingly trodden upon the sa
cred pigtail of the ambassador from
Cambodia. Within a moon and a half
every pigtail in all Cambodia tingled
responsively: hence the war.
I have spoken of Carruthers’ cynic
al friends. Most cynics are good ua
tured, and Harkness was the best na
tural of cynics. Harkness was a war
correspondent, the stormy petrel of
newspaperdom. He said to Carruthers:
“I sail for Mandalay tomorrow. You
feel like making a war on society.
Come with me and make war on the
Cambodians instead.” And Carruthers
went.
* * * * * * *
The investment which Mr. Jessup
made did not turn out so well after
all. A merely rich man who is also
single stands a chance of sneaking into
society by way of club parlors and
yacht lunches, but a murried roturier,
even if his wife belong to a “tirst fam
ily of Virginia,” does not always find
open the front doors of Fifth avenue.
Moreover, Jessup had married nt an
inconvenient epoch. There was a real
serene highness within the gates, and
he meditated marriage with the daugh
ter of a certain society she general.
Through the medium of society papers
the Prince of Holieustauffeu-Pumper
nickel's intentions were no secret. Un
der the circumstances the introduction
of a Mrs. Jessup proved difficult. You
cannot ask an Independent high and
mighty lord of the empire to dance a
cotillon with the wife of a Long Is
land manufacturer. At least the great
dames uptown argued In this wise.
Poor Vivien was very lonely at New
port and still more lonely In New York.
Jessup hud a short temper, and he lost
It altogether when he found that his
coup hud failed. Society papers began
to say nasty things about the couple.
Nasty things are nastiest when true,
and these paragraphs were hideously
accurate.
In the midst of It all the war in the
east collapsed with a crash. To every
body’s intense surprise the forces of
Mandalay made mincemeat of the
Cambodians. Then young Carruthers
suddenly appeared in London and
wrote a book. If the war was the war,
then Carruthers’ book was the book.
A year bad passed without a new fad
or a new lion. Carruthers and his
book tilled the gap. Ilud not the young
soldier-author penetrated as far as
Bangkok and seen the peacock throne?
Were there not grand, romantic sto
ries which made him the Joseph of a
mysterious oriental Potiphar’s sultana?
The Duchess of Gatherum fed him
upon ortolans und truffies in Lloncatch
castle, and his book went through five
editions as a circus Columbine goes
through hoops.
When London bows down New York
salaams. Carruthers found himself
twice the hero In America that he had
been In England. The great society
she general heretofore alluded to in
trigued for an Introduction and* baled
him off to Lenox. The Prince of Ho
henstauffen-Pumpernlckel planned with
him an excursion into Hurrna.
One morning Mrs. Jessup, nee Daw
nay, read In her moat detested society
paper the following Interesting item:
“Fortune favors the brave. This
week we announce the approaching
wedding of that modern Moute Chris
to, Mr. George Carruthers, to Miss
Virginia Van Ruyter. It will be re
membered that Miss Van Ruyter and
her $1,000,000 dowry were popularly
supposed to be destined for H. 8. H.
the Prince of Hohenstauffen-Pumper
ulckel. This is not to be. Gossip says
that Miss Van Ruyter fell in love with
Carruthers’ ’Cambodlanus’ at first
sight. Her hero is no needy fortune
hunter, for Ids recent work is coining
money, and another book may shortly
be expected from his pen.”
Mrs. Jessup displayed considerable
ill nature when her husband returned
without cards for the Van Astorbllt
ball. Poor Vivien! 8he had been think
ing of how differently matters might
have fallen out If only she had re
mained the fiancee of young Carruth
ers.—New York Press.

THE WORD "HUSSAR.”
It Is Huiurnrlaii Hud Originally
Meant u Freebooter.
Hussar is a Hungarian word mean
tng originally a freebooter or free lance.
These men. strong, active, hardy, ac
customed to capture and tame herds of
wild horses, were brought into mill
tary service by t’orvlnus. the boy king,
in 1-141! and became the finest body of
light cavalry In the world. The sug
gested derivation from the Magyar—
Imzst, twenty, and ur, pay (one horse
man raised l>y twenty families)—Is
only a fanciful one. The name spread
Into all armies, and hussars of all na
tions are distinguished by uniforms of
brilliant colors and elaborate orna
mciii. Two clu.iv.eLeristlcs are the dol
man and the busby, with its scarlet
cloth attachment, a survival of the
narrow Magyar t ag, which fell over
tlie left shoulder as a protection again-it
sword cuts.
The word dragoon was tlrst used of a
regiment of mounted infantry, so ca.li
ed front the dragons or short muskets
with which they were nruied. The
head of a dragon, wrought on :*-e muz
zle of tlie muskets, seemed to spit tire
and at one time was depleted on their
standard.
Peculiar I.autl Tenure Custom.
At Cllingford. in Essex. England, un
estate Is held by a very strange con
ditiou. Whenever it passes into new
hands the owner, with his wife, man
servant and maidservant, comes on
horseback to the parsonage and pays
nis homage by blowtug three blasts
upon a born. He carries a hawk upon
Ids fist and bis servant lias a grey
hound in the slip, both for the use of
the rector for that day. He receives a
chicken for the hawk, a peck of oats
for bis horse and a loaf of bread for
bis greyhound. After dinner the own
er blows three more blasts, and then,
with his party, withdraws from the
rectory.
Painter and Tavern Keeper.
Marlotto Albertlnclll, who lived in
the fourteenth century, was a painter
who spent much time in endeavoring
to produce certain mixtures in oil. He
was not very successful and objected
so much to the criticism he received
that he gave up painting and kept a
tavern, but Ills name as a painter still
lives, while his tavern keeping record
has passed away.
A Schemer Spotted.
"The young man talks a great deal
about bts estates abroad.”
“Yes," answered Mr. Cumrox, “he’s
like one or two others who wanted to
marry into the family. He’s anxious
to trade bis imaginary estate for some
of my real estate.”—Washington Star.
Haven't Wei
“But," said tlie Englishman, “you
have nothing to see over here—nothing
In the way of grand old things that
have long since fallen into disuse."
“We haven't, eh? Wait till I get yon
a copy of the city ordinance*.”—Chica

Stolen Trniam,
Some of M. (ierouie's artistic treas
ures had a curious origin. When in
Constantinople once he was brought
into contact with a worthy mau who
sold most beautiful objects at exceed
ingly reasonable prices. It turned out
afterward that lie was the keeper of
one of tlie imperial palaces and had
been in the habit of laying under con
tribution tlie cabinets intrusted to his
care. His end, however, was not en
couraging. for one day he was caught
in the act and subsequently impaled.
Slreet TliruuKh n Church.
One of the best known instances of
churches with streets through them Is
that of St. John tlie Baptist’s church
in Bristol. Knglund. The chnrch is sit
uated right over tlie ancient gateway
into the city oil the Avon, and the tow
ering spire, standing high above the
neighboring houses umTstreets. is a re
markable sight as one surveys It from
the roadway below.
The 1**»n»y Bed.
Always locate the pansy bed in an j
open, airy place, where the wind can
have free sweep over it. It is a mis
take to plant pansies in the shade. Un
der that condition the stems become
weak and straggling, whereas the
plants should he stout aud stocky,
with the flowers borne on moderately
long stems.
Independent Thought.
One self wrought problem will give
more vigor than a thousand worked
out for us. It Is the constaut stretch
ing of the uilml over large problems,
over large models—It Is independent
thought—that Increases mental power.
--Success.

Tendencies of the Time.
Personal luxury—vulgar, osteutatlous,
uniesthetle—Is rampant. Our men wear
diamonds, sapphires, rubles In their
ties. In their sleeve links, In their gold
cigarette cases, lu their matchboxes.
Brutal ostentation is uear to being the
good form of today. Our women clothe
themselves with reckless profusion.
Life is murdered tu every quarter of
the globe to provide them with furs,

awful to be in debt the way you are.

HOMES OF HEALING.
The History of Hospitals Beaflns
With the Klrst Century.
The temple at EpUlaurus was found
ed by Antoninus Pius at the end of the
first century A. I). in honor of .T'scu
lapius. Homer's blameless physician.
Beyond the sacred inclosure was a
building for the reception of the sick
and dying, which Strabo describes as
a place renowned for the cure of all
diseases, always full of invalids and
containing votive tablets descriptive of
cures.
About 380 A. L). a hospital was found
ed by Valens and richly endowed by
him at Caesarea, and another at Rome
by Fabiola, a wealthy Roman widow,
for the reception of the sick poor.
Basil is said by Gregory, the pres
byter. to have built a large hospital
for lepers with money collected for the
purpose. The Hotel Dieu in Paris,
foituded in the seventh century, and
two founded in 1080 by I.anfranc,
archbishop of Canterbury, were both
connected with monastic establish
ments. Bartholomew’s, 1547, and St.
Thomas’, 1553, are the oldest hospitals
in London and were both originally re
ligious foundations.
Omens In Ten,
When the tea ts made aud the lid of
the teapot is forgotten for a minute or
two it Is a sure sign that some one will
drop in for the meal. Two spoons put
by chance into the saucer of a maid
or a bachelor denote that be or she
will be married within a year. Putting
cream into your tea before you sweet
en it will bring you love troubles. A
tea stalk floating lu a girl’s teacup is a
"beau.” She should stir her tea brisk
ly and then hold ihe spoon upright iu
the center. If the "beau” be attracted
toward the spoon and cling to it a gen
tleman visitor may be expected some
time that evening. If, however, the
"beau” goes to the side of the cup the
visitor will not come that day.
Mmmsm of War.
Among the natives of Australia
notched and carved sticks are used for
messages. For instance, a piece of
wood carried from one village to an
other with straight aud curved lines
cut upon it is a message of war and
means: “There is a fight on hand.
Fetch your spears and boomerangs.”
Tbe North American Indians utilized
wampum belts from time immemorial
for like purposes. The arrangement of
tbe different colored beads conveyed
the signification desired.

"Look here, sir! Von have been call
