WORLD'S MOSTWICKED CI?Y Irkutsk, in Ra2U.11 Siberia, Claims That Unenviable Distinction.' BASED ON ITS MTTRDER RECORD e One rersoa Slsla Every Twenty Foar Hoar I tk Preeeat Rate of Itoailrlde la Tkl Flare of Crime. j Irkutsk, it seems,' wt founded about j the middle at the seventeenth century by an energetlo Cosnack who saw an oppor ' tunlty to levy a small tribute for the government and a large one for himself from the Mongolian fur trader. It ha a climate that la all It own, and nobody grudgea Irkutsk the ' posenslon, either. At 6 o'clock In the morning the ground la likely to be. frost-bitten, by 2 o'clock In the afternoon people are walk In? on the shady side of the street and loosening their collar. Nobody think of getting up In Irkutsk before 10 o'clock In the morning, unless perhaps It I the milkmen; nobody thinks of going to bed before 2 or 2 o'clock. The dinner hour is from 10 'clack at night until I in the morning, and you linger over drinks and Crimean cigarette aa much longer a you want The chief restaurant In the town, th re sort of the ereme de la creme of wealth and smartness, offer not uninteresting1 glimpse. It Is quite good form, for In stance, to enter the crowded room vigor ously scraping your hair and muatachios anl whiskers and beard with a large and greasy comb. . None of the luncher through whom you thread your way are squeamish enough to push away their otip plate from your scurf strewn wake. Wanting a waiter, you bang- your plat with a knife, clamorously and with application,- till he n appears. Mold and manure stained earthen pot, standing In water logged saucers, hold the rooted onoe-we-were flower on your table. Ar gumentative canarie and vainly shrill lin net, trilling from a doien cage, drive you nearly silly. Yet the food I excellent and th waiter models of their genius, apart from a lamentable tendency to snatch the fork froth your plate where with to pry the cork from a bottle of wine. There are no guide books about the city of Irkutsk, although it Is tho capital of a tract of country three times aa big as Europe. Trial 1. Europe, omitting Russia. But because Irkutsk lies deep In the heart of Siberia and very well off the beaten track of travel, you seldom hear about It, although It contains more bizarre thing worth writing about than most towns of sn.ooo. If you are looking for occidental splen dors, comforts and culture, approaching this outpost of empire with the Berlin or Boston point of view," yon will find Irk utsk crude. To appreciate It, you should come upon It, mentally, If not in actual ity, out of the awful solitudes of forest that hedge tt about; then you will not cry fie upon It for being the capital city of northern Asia and having neither street car nor skyscrapers, few drains and fewer street lamps, hotels a rlre, an actorlea opera house and roads that are lakes of mud or .drifts of stifling dust There Is only one street In Irkutsk where It is safe to walk after the shades of night begin to fall. That is the Bol shala, a broad and dusty throughfare, half a mile or so In length, which 1 con tinually In a choking cloud by reason of the carriage which trundle up and down It. There' a little atrip of garden at one nd with a atatue ot the Csar Alexander III., end a soldier whose duty It la to see that nobody blow up the statue. And Hie populace loll on wooden benches lopg the street and smokes and drink and read th Blblr, the dally paper of the Siberian metropolis. . I'p and down the Boshaia the crowds parade. Three out of every four men wear a uniform. No Russian is really happy till he wears a uniform. ' Micro scopic schoolboys, who are not yet 8, wear a reductlo ad adsurdum ot a grownup's official kit Every officer has to salute his superior, which comes hard on the Colonels nd such, who have to salute la echo, I followed one potenate' who had to acknowledge 27 In two blocks. Traits of tke Siberian. The Siberian Is an Interesting and not unworthy animal when ha Is frankly and openly a seml-Aslatlc, his shlrt-talls fluttering In the - breese a he and hi women toll at a wooden ploughshare outside their log and turf . hut In the wilderness. Veneered with the modern parlor tricks, however, ' and become townsmen, he doesn't show sign of a healthy national growth. That ' applies to the. Russian, too. It is a symptom that causes many a sympathetic friend of the eastern Slav to shake hi head gravely over the future. Twilight Is drawing on svew. tou have been wondering for an hour past how these people can stand the dust Heavens, what dust! There I nothing like It out aid of Siberia, and even here it peculiar qualities and prevalence are i seen and swallowed only for a month or two after the disappearance of the snow. Fine powder that eddies and soar and sweeps down upon you in dense cones that veil all beyond. Tn Infrequent street lamps become mere lurid patches in the smok ing thoroughfare. Passerby, caught In a driving cloud, come to a standstill fo( a minute on end, with upraised forearms and bent heads like folk bearing up a bllsssrtt - Stay M here Von Are. However, If you are prudent you will not seek a lea dusty promenad In side streets and suburbs. Now night . ha fallen and th human wolre are creep ing out of their dens, th hordo who do murder to gain' a Jacket or a pair of boots, time-expired convict for tbe most part with the "wolf passport" that len der subsequent employment a forlorn hop. . ' . The first time caste to this tewa t was assured that there waa a murder on the' streets at least every four and twenty hours, with considerably fnore some nice, warm nights when It was a-plty-to-bs-tndoors-don't-you-know, I doubted the fact till I came back subsequently and proved K. And now, this spring, after an absence of .three yeara, I find veaperal murder mora popular than ever, . Nasty, uncomfortable murders, quiet murder la th dark by gentlemen who havau't a Uilng agalnat you. but need a spare shirt er merely want to keep In - good train ing. There are no street lamps halt a mile from tbe heart ot this metro polls. That helps, too. oaa Do It eatly.

A bearded ruffian, with the bennwilrnt epect of apostolic saintllness germane lo the most fiendish Ruswlen criminals, chased by a detective who was wearily pumping lead Into him and wondering; why he r.ldn't seem to mind, sang over' i his rhotildcr that It was merely a waste j of good cartridge, aa he was wearing a j steel bullet-proof vest under his Jacket I j "I am greatly obliged to you!'' panted the detective.

Fifty thousand cars haul 1,000,000,000 passengers annually, which moans that each car shelters 20.000 persons a year, or fifty-four every day. Twenty-five per cent of animals experi mentally inoculated with dust from rail road car developed tuberculosis, and the pneumonia bacillus Is often found In the same dust, so the car mlcxobe haa become a great problem. Before the car Is even switched to the cleaning tracks the cleaner begins work. With a sleeper, mattress, pillows and blankets are hung out to air. Floors, walls, ceilings, head lining and windows are scoured and pol ished. Carpets and upholstery are vacuum-cleaned. There are mile of vacuum pipes In the cleaning yards, with outlet so that cleaners can reach every car In every part, and If a passenger Is suspected ot having a contagious disease the car Is fumigated. All this after each trip. In Germany each car la run Into a steel cylinder, which Is sealed. The tempera ture Is raised to 130 degree and the air Is pumped out.
