Va. — ODESSA YOUNG BUT LUSTY _ \ Great Commercial Center of Southeri^\ Russia Hat Over Half a Mil lion Inhabitants. Odessa is one of the younrest of European cities—only a hundred nnd twenty years ago lldji Bey, a little 'Turkish settlement, nestled on tne cliffs find overlook the harbor and dozed under the sultan across | the Black sea. The long arm of Russia reached out and took it, and planted there, upon the plateau overlooking the bay, the beginners of a commercial city that now holds be tween five and six hundred thousand, i he revolution ;n France soon sent refugees scattering over the world, and noble names came to Odessa, and one may rend them Ft ill on street corners—Ibiribas, Richelieu and Langeron. Eater Englishmen came nnd brought ships to carry away Russian grain; and then the < rimean war swept across this friendly relation. But the English stayed when the war had passed, and then Germans came, and afterward Americans, with reapers and plows nnd steam traction engines, to help the Russians to grow more richly the grain that the English and the German ships carried out to the world. East of all came the Jews, and they cut the business so fine thnt th(> English starved and gave up; so the business of exporting to day is mainly in the hands of the Jews. A few hardy Germans and English are left.—Sydney Adamson, in Harper’s Magazine. ALL EXPLAINED Lady—How long were you in your last place? (iirl—Jisht a month. Lndv—Indeed? What was the I rouble ?

Squire Durnitt (of Lonelyville) — They tell me you felt that earth quake in your town th’ other day/ It didn’t bother us none. Uncle Wei by (Josh (of Drcary hurst)—Should say not. Ther’ hain’t no wov o gittin’ to your blamed little village 'eeph travelin* by dirt road, an’ no decent earth quake would take th’ trouble to do that.
