When questioned about the allegations of Mrs. E. B. Voorhees concerning the outrageous traffic in Indian women tit Ah:s'a, Bishop Vladimir, of tho Russian Orlh;Klox church, just returned from Sitka, said: "Though I went on another mission I, of course, heard of the system of office contract, as it is there termed. There are a largo number of miners, shep keepers, factory hands and persons in similar pursuits in different parts of the Alaskan territory, and I was told that they were most immoral. They usually have no wives of their own, so they go to depraved Indians, buy their young daughters for money or liquor, and ufter living with the poor girls a whilo cast them adrift." San Francisco Cor. Chicago Tribune. Xo Round Dances. Since tho marriage-a-failure topic has ! been worn out and reduced to a pulp, the country i3 now to be deluged with this , riuoition or dancing, whether dancing is proper or not; if so, when, where, of whY.t character, for how many hours, and what style of dress? The lie v. C. S. Nickcrson opens the ball, as is most pro.or, with an indorsement of danc ing. Ho says it is natural, innocent, beautiful. That is, square dances, where peojilo move gracefully and merely touch finger tips. Ho says hugging should bo done at home; therefore the waltz is banished from Mr. Nickerson's con.gi cgation. But high necked, eleven o'clock, square cornered, long meter dancing he thoroughly approves. Min neapolis Tribune. Magnetic Oxide. It lias long been known that rails of tracks in actual uso oxidate much 6lower than those of dead tracks, but so far no satisfactory explanation has been found. W. Spring, in The Bulletin of the Roval Bcl.ion academy, shows that this is due ; to the formation of a coating of mag. netic oxide of iron under the influence of huini lity and pressure. In order to prove tho correctness of this view, Mr. Spring has brought moistened rust and a c' j&n plate of iron under a pressure of fr .a a thousand to twelve lundred at mir p'leres, which corresponds to that of ' tin- wheels of alocomotiveof a thousand hundredweights. He found that the rui.t owder had penetrated the iron, and formed a coating of magnetic oxide.--Sci.'-nce. A Novel Hotel Swindle. "A fellow with an English accent worked a new racket on me the other da;.-,' said a New York hotel man. "He registered, got a good room and threw do.n two railroad checks for liis lug gage,' which he ordered sent upstairs to hiui. After some hours spent in looking for the trunks, the clerk reported that they could not bo found. This threw tho Englishman into a towering rage, and he wr.:i with difiiculty persuaded that no dcubS they could bo found by next morn ing. Next morning ho went Inmself to eo::ij lain at the station about the trunks, and never came back. The checks were boji.-t and had secured for the scamp two meals and a bed." f .l ,mcrica there are ladies who mate t II vt iiJiooJ by teaching the principles of Jiv rxuii paine or wluat. in Kussia :h;rc is a lady known to English chess ;irclc3 who, to use an Americanism, Mta them hollow.

A crcntlcuian from Tucson, A. T., in the lobby of the National hotel, spoke f oneof the uesponidis s ot his town: . "I want to lei! yo.i tl. it the first and grcdest Ion hili vv:ivt:i:ii in this country lived in Tucson, and Ids ntinie was iiill KrazcUon. It has now been seven or eight years since no was killed. While ho lived ho was the terror of southern Arizona, and he did all of his work single handed. He used to work iu a livery stable in Tuc son. He was a young fellow who did not say much, but was all tho time practicing with his revolver when he was not at his work. Ho was the most active, powerful young man 1 ever saw. "He got so he could turn a somersault with his pistol in his hand, and as he came up hit a half dollar every time twenty-live yards away. He could shoot in every )osition, whether stand ing, running or riding, and every time ho 'plumped' the bull's eye. Sud denly he left town, and it was not long till we heard of his robbing stages all alone. He had nerves of steel, and did not seem to bo afraid of anybody or anything. Tho greatest ell'orts were made to capturo hini, but he eluded all of his pursuers, lie seemed fo bo here; there and everywhere at tho same time. "Finally it was suspected that a hostler working iu the stable where Urazelton had been employed knew something of him. lie was taken out on the edge of town and hung up till ho was almost dead, when he agreed to confess, on condition that Bruzelton should bo shot outright, as he would kill any man who betrayed his secret at tho first opportunity. The hostler said ho was to go out to meet Bruzelton that very night and take him some thing to eat. He was to wait behind a log in a certain piece of woods. "A party of six well armed men took tho hostler and went with him to the place of rendezvous. They all lay down behind tho log nnd waited for P.razclton. By and by he rode out of a thicket into an own space and came slowly toward the unsuspected am bush. He carried his pistol in his tmtwl nc if Clicnnnfinflr tVilf liiirrc; n'mui j not an right. When in thirty yards Oi tno log- tho whole party rose and fired, killing both horse and rider in an instant. It was pno cf tho most dramatic mciucms mat ever oecurreu about Tucson in those troublesome i days. Brazeltons body was riddled with balls. Ho was brought to town and tho next morning ho was propped up against mi auobo wall and had his , photograph taken, and the Joeai puo Ir.fTj-nibei' has today in his showcase a gluistly illustration of the triumph of his art." "Washington Post. Safer Thau the Stairs. "The elevators of this town carry nearly a million people up and down every day but Sunday," said N. P. Otis, the elevator manufacturer, yes terday. "Yes," he added, ''everybody takes the elevator now, because it is safer to ride than climb the stairs. It's strange to say, but, nevertheless, it is a fact, that the number of accidents iu eleva tors is very small in comparison with those that r.ro caused by falling down stairs. This is because tho modern passenger elevator has almost reached perfection now." Bpeed and simplicity of structure : : : tho most desirable qualities of the i scnger elevator, find fheso r.ro both found in the hoisting machines in cc - mon use in the big oliice buildii clowu town ana in tiie inn apaumeju nearly all run by water power, or what is termed hydraulic pressure, as that is less complicated than steam. A water tank is located either on the roof or in the cellar, and supplies tho power to run the elevator. Iu the Pot tor building the tank is on the roof and holds (5,000 gallons of water, which furnishes power enough to run the elevators, ilr. Frank 11. Gallaher ex plained to a tar reporter yesterday the various improvements made in hoist ing machines during the last ten year. Tho peed had been increased, lie snid, from 100 io 500 feet per min u to. and instead of the big, lumbering vehicle that used to be called a "sleep ing car, there was now a small apart ment, handy and well equipped for sv. ift passage. lio said that the old system of hoisting by horiio power was dangerous, because it was not possible to always keep tho ropes and pulleys m period order. He thought that fooplo did not fully appreciate what a )ou:i the improved elevator was, with its rapid movement and perfect safety. New York Star. A Submerged City. Lough Ncag-h, Antrim, enjoys a celebrity for a marvel that both his torian and poet have commemorated that of flowing over a submerged city. Caston thus records the fact, if such it be, though to tho judgment of sober reason it will seem but a legend, which we give, merely modernizing tho orthography: "Thero is a Jake in ULster and much fish therein. The river Dunn runneth out of the lake into the' North ocean, and men say that this lake began in this manner: There were men in this country that were of evil living. And there was a well in the land of great reverence of old time and always covered; and if it were left uncovered the wholo would rise and drown all the land. And so it hapjK?ned that a woman went to the well for to fetch water and hied her fast to her child that wept in tho cradle, and left the well uncovered ; then the well spriuged so fastly it drowned the woman and her child and made all the pountry a lake and fish pond. For to prove this it ix a great argument that when llio weather is clear fishers of the water see in tho ground under the water round towers and high shanen steeples and churches of the land."
