A story is told illustrating the rigid discipline of the Russian army. One of the Grand Dukes told the Czar that a sentinel at the railroad crossing at Potorhof refused to rniso the gate for his cnrringo , although the train was not duo for throe or four minutes. "It Is against orders * , your imporlnl Highness , " the soldier replied , the rule being that when the gnlo was shut it must not be opened until nftor the train had passed. The Czar said ho was g\ad \ to hoar that the soldier know how to obey orders. The Grand Duke laughed nud said ho was certain that if tho.Cznr himself had been present discipline would have given way. The czar did not reply , but a few days after , to put the matter to the test , ho drove up with the czarina just after the gate had been lowered. The czar called to the sentinel to let him pass. The sen tinel , in great trepidation , saluted but did not move the gate , i "Open the gate , I toll you ! " crio-1 the emperor ; "don't you know who T nm't" "Yes but it's , your imporinl majesty , against orders , and I cannot open the gate , " answered the sentinel , still salut ing , and turning nlmost blue with anx iety , but not moving an inch from his place. "i am the the czar , and I rammand you to open"cried the czar again. "I can't do it , your imperial majesty , ' despairingly cried the sentinel , still standing lirm. Just then the train passed. The czar burst into laughter , nnd , warmly com mending the astonished sentry , pre sented him with n twonty-five-roublo note and drove back to the palace. lie Hail Two Callers. Now York Commercial ; "Speaking of poker stories , " remarked Colonel Charles Evromond Hamilton yesterday , "tho latest and newest narrative of that brand is attributed to the nimble wit of H. Clay Barnabee , the comedian. "Like all trully good players , hoi _ ? not averse loan occasional indulgence in the noble game of poker , but his weak ness for holding that variety of straight that associates with the degraded ad jective 'bobtail , ' nnd his predilection for flushes that chnngo their politics on the fifth card , cause him to hold him self aloof from tlio game except on ex traordinary occasions. "Ono of those transpired recently in that paradise of poker , Loulsvlllo when Barnaboo , in company with two of the colonels common to the latitude , onscon- ed himself behind an ambuscade of blue chips and repulsed the enemy with great loss. "Ono of those hands that are hoard of only in poker stories was dclt iround : "Each gentleman clasped his cards close to his manly bosom , nnd the crack ing of the chips , as Barnaboo opened the jock pot for the limit , sounded like the skirmish firing that precedes a Waterloo or Gettysburg. "Tho ivories completly obscured the center when a servant entered. " 'Mistah Barnnbeo. ' ho said 'Mistah McDonald's downstairs , an' ho wants t' sooyo , ' sah.

A LESSON IN SPELLING. Olllclitl Itcfurm In ( leocrnphlo Nomen clature. In no details of current speech nnd writing Is there moro confusion nnd uncertainty thnn in the pronunciation nnd spelling of googrnphlcnl names , says the Now York Tribune. No standard authority has hitherto boon known In this country , upon the subject. Each maker of maps or gazetteers hns fol lowed his own frco fanev , and has boon held worthy of prnlso if only his work throughout wna self consistent. Local fashion and social fads have added var iations to the general perplexity , and the result is that ono is not sure of a spoken name until ho hears it spelled , nor a written name until ho hears it pronounced. To go no further than a few near and homely examples , who does not hesitate with woful misgivings between writing Newburg nnd New- burgh , or between Duchess and Dulchess. Who , speaking of Mount Desert , is quite sure on which syllable of the lat ter word to put the accent ? There nro innumerable other such uncertainties , many of them of serious importance. Nearly two years ago , with a view to mitigating In sonic degree this noinoti- clntural evil , the president appointed n board on geographic names , consisting of ton learned gentleman connected with the coast survey and other government bureaus. The primary object of this board was to establish uniform usage in regard to geographic nomenclature and orthography on the maps nnd charts and in the books published by the gov ernment. But it was evident that the olToct of its work would bo much wider , and that its decisions wo'uld generally come to bo recognized ns authority. The board has hold numerous meetings , nnd has just issued its first report , con taining an account of the rules adopted in its work , and Its decisions in moro thnn 2,000 disputed cases. This.report will bo received with interest by the public , especially by nil concerned in scientific , literary and educational matters - tors , and is worthy of careful considera tion. tion.Most Most of the rules adopted scorn wise , such ns the dropping of the < lh" in the termination "burgh. " and "ugh' ' in "borouerh ; " the omission of hyphens ; nnd , whenever possible , of "C. II. " ( Court house ) after the nnmes of county seats. Ono , however , appears ill advis ed , nt least in the manner and results of its application , namely the "avoidance of the possessive form of names. " In fol lowing this rule the board has gone into many self-contradictions and noologistic absurdities , which seriously mar its work. The possoslvo form is "avoided" simply by dropping the apostrophe , which is part of its sign , but retaining the ws , " which io also part of Its sign , nnd thd result is a word in plural form in a case where no plural should or could exist. For instance. Fisher's island is mndo Fishers island , and Long's peak is changed lo Longs po'nk and so , in the next report , wo may look for Pikes peak , Fremonts peak. etc. It would bo in teresting to hear the board's defense of such forms. Nor is this rule consistently carried out ; for hero is Gcdnoy's channel changed , not to GoJnoys , but t'o Godnov channel , and Elliot's knob to Elliott knob. If "Fishers" and "Longs" " " "Elliotts':1 nnd why not "Gcdneys" : Falknor's island too , becomes not Fulk- ners , but Fnlkner. It is n pity that the board did not have the courage of its convictions , and restore the original name , Falcon island. Many other features of the report deserve - servo hearty commendation ; such as the simplification in spelling of Alaskan names , by which TschotchiagofT be comes Chlcagof , nnd Ooanalushka , Un- alasku : though a curious step in the other direction is tnkon in distinguish ing between two Rat islands , ono being called Khwoslof and the other Som- . isopochnoi. Pleasant , too , it is to observe servo that the board insists upon Mount Raiiicr , and discards Mount Tacoma , which may greivo local pride , but docs justice to ii gallant discoverer. Boring sea is confirmed , too , in accordance with the Danish-Russian voyager's name. Woods Hell is fixed upon us ; and perhaps it is just as well. If people will speak hole "holl , " they may as well complete the anomaly by spell ing Wood's "Woods. " In foreign names there are many decisions that will bo accepted , nnd" many that will not. The public will gladly receive Beirut as the best of a dozen forms of the Syrian senport's'namo , and hold Fiji as hotter than Fidsohl. They will proba bly not accept Kongo for Congo , or i Knmorun for Cameroon , or Ynfn for I Joppa , or Muskat for Muscat , nor do wo t see why they should. But , on the whole , the decisions of the board nro In the direction of sense nnd simplicity , nnd nro commendable as an earnest , ela borate and goneraly judicious effort for the improvement of our googrnphlcnl nomenclature. An Ancient ( J ill lie Outh. The famous oath of the Gallic chiof- tinn has boon discovered , according to M. Arbois do Tubainvolllo , in nn Irish text of the second contjry of our era. At the last sitting of the Academy of Inscriptions nnd Belles Loiters the fol lowing translation of Ihooath was given by M. do Tubainvoillo : "Tho ho.ivons over us , the hind bclo.v us , the ocean nround us everything In a circle about us. If the honvons do not fall , pasting from their high fortresses the stars like vain on the face of the earth.
