EXTREMES OF POVERTY AND AFFLUENCE Fortunes Worn in Fars—THow th Are Furnlshed and the Rigors of Winter Softened—A Specimeon Ru puses an Dinner, The pithy epigram *‘if you scratch a Russian you will find a Tartar,” has taken such a deep hold upon the popular mind, says the Philadelphia Press, that tho real socioty of the upper clusses in the empire of the Czaris but little undor- stood. There is a general impression that the state that tho nobility keops is bar- baricand widely different from that of the rest of the Buropean continent, and it is to correct this notion that an observant traveler has set down these pen pictures of tho country as he has seen it. The Venetian women, he suys, nover go but save in a gondola; the Russian only in a carringe. Scarcely are they willing to walk a fow steps along the New: Prospekt. Their bonnets und their fashions in dress come from Paris, Of the elegance of their figures it is impossible to judge, for ample pelisses of black satin, or some woolen material with large plaids, wrap them from hend toheel. Coquetry gives way to considerations of climate. A cars riago is not considered as an object of luxury, but of primo necessity., Smail tradesmen, clerks with moderato sal- aries, economize in every way and stint themselves in order to keep a careta, droschky or sledge. To go on foot is & kind of disgrace. A fushionable drosehky, such as the young swells use, isa small open cars riage with four wheels, those of the r not larger than the front wheels of g vics toria, those of the front apparently cop- ied from a wheelbarrow. lar springs support the body of the carringe, which has two scats, the one for the coachman and the other for the master. "ORCED FLIRTATIO This latter seat is round, and in ele- gant droschkys admits but a_single pers son, in others there 1s room for two, but s0 narrow that you are obliged to pass your arm around your companion, lady or gentleman. There is nothing pret- tier, more dainty, lighter than this frail equipage which you could pick up and carry under your arm. It séems to have como from Queen Mab's own carriage- akers. I have said nothing of tha uchman. Tho stouter heis the higher ages he can command; if he is thin when he enters your service, and pre: ently should grow fat, he will require increase of pay Provision ngainst the cold is of course a necessity of the climate, and here is a hint us to the way to keep Jack Frost on the outside.

Copper mouths, like the openings of a letter box, were nlso in readiness to blow hot azir blasts There are no outside shutters. Ono narrow movable pane serves to admit frosh air, but its use is diswgreenble and even dangerous, 50 great 1s the differ- ence in temperature without and within. A RUSSIAN ANTE-RQOM. There is also somevhing ‘pecul the uppearance of a Russian an Peolisses, lined with sable or Siberian blue fox, hang from the rack with their limp sleeves and straight heavy folds vaguely suggesting the human figure and the inevitable overshoes beneath them simulate feet. These overcoats are made of the finest cloth and have collars of beaver costing from 100 to 300 rubles. An overcoat worth 1,000 rubles is not unusual. A northern proverb might well be “Tell me what furs you wear and I will tell you how much you are worth.” Flowers are the Russian’s luxury. The houses overflow with them; flowers receive you at the door and go with you up tho stairway. Lrish 1vies festoon the balusters, jardinieres adorn the landings on every floor. In theembrasure of the windows bananus spread out their broad silken leaves; talipot palms, magnolias, cameillas growing like trees mirgle their blossoms with the gilded volutes of the cornices; orchids hover like but- terflies around lamp shades of crystal, porcelain and curiously wrought ‘terra cotta, And all the floral splendor thrives as in a hot house. In truth every Russian apartment is a hot house. 1n’the street you are at the pole. Within doors you might believe yourself at the tropics, In regard to furniture, it is much like our own, only larger, more ample, as be- comes the size of the rooms, which are largo. But one thing completely Rus- sian is the boudoir of delicateand costly wood, carved in open work like tho sticks of a fan, which occupies the cor- ner of the drawing room, festooned with the rarest of climbing plants—furnished with divans when the mistress of the house, isolating herself from the crowds of visitors while yet remaining with them, may receive threo or four guests of special distinction, Sometimes it is of tinted glass covered engravings etched with gluorie acid and mounted in panels of gilded copper. Nor is it rare to see a huge white bear suit- ably stuffed and arranged, offering to visitors n commodious seat, and some- times little black cubs serve as footstools or ottomans, The sleeping rooms do not prasent the same luxury and ele- gauce, The idea of making a sanctuary of one's bedroom never ocours to themi, their ancient customsof the tent seem to have followed them into the very heart of civilized life. A RUSSIAN DINNER. A Russian dinner is thus described: Before sitting down av the table the guests approach u small gueridon on which is set out caviare, bits of salted herring, anchovies, cheese, olives, allces of bhologna sausage, Hamburg smoked beef and other relishes 1o be eate:. with biscuit in order to stimulute the appe- tite, This lunch is taken standing and accompanied by absinthe, Madoira, Dantzic brandy, cognac, and cumien; a kind of anisette. At table by the sido of the white bread is served a slice of the blackest rye bread. The Russians are also very fond of salted cucumbers, During dinner after great #-aughts of such bordeaux and champagne as Is found nowhere but in Russia, they take Kurmr and ale and especially Kivas, a ind of local heer made of crusts of black bread fermented which one must learn to like and which, 1o strangers, scarcely seem worthy of the magnificent goblets of Bohemian glass or chiseled siiver in which foams its brown liguor. As vegetables are for tho most part raised under glass in this country their maturity has no special dato marked by the seusons. The asparagus kuows no winter.

SOLVING as HE PROBLEM. Discovery Whicl will Revolutionize the Manufacture of Binding Tw ICaNsAs CiTv, Mo.. March 12.—J. C. Best, who lives a few miles south of tnis city, thinks he has solved the binding twine piob- lem for the American farmers. Mr Best pro- poses 10 use as a substitute for manilla and sisal fiber in tho manufacture of twine tho fiber of the yucca plant, or ‘“Spanish bay- onet,”” as it is called in Now Mexico. A Kan- sas name fyr it is “'bear grass,” so called on account of ‘the groat strength of its fiber, Mr. Best has experimeated with the yucca plant for several yeurs, and he has pro- grossed so far that he has invented a wa- chine that will satisfactorily separate the fiber. Driven by a four-horse power engine, it will separate 4,000 pounds of clean fiber in. ten hours. which can bo manufactured into binding twine much more cheaply than manilla or sisal fiber, whilo at the same timo making a twine that is quite as good. Mr. Best says the manufacture of his twine will bring the trust w more reasonable terms, meh il RESTRICTING TMMIGRATION, Labor Organizations Advocating the Pass- nge of a Bill for That Purpose.

[FROM YESTERDAY'S SECOND RDITION, | [T IS AGITATING ALLENGLAND Bering 8ea Questions Being Seriously Dis- cussed by All Olasses, SALISBURY'S COURSE IS NOT APPROVED War with the United States Not Wanted— 1 for Some of the Trou h Politieal News— Gossip, (Copyrighted 1292 by New York Associated Prese.] Loxnoy, Mareh 11.—Lord Salisbury's delay in arranging for a renewal of the modus vivendi in the Bohring soa matter hins boon a matter for private consideration by the loadors of tho opposition,' resulting in a decision not to move in tho matter untii the policy of the government appears more def- inite, The foreign ofice is unusually dila- tory in the production of papers 1n the caso. Mr. J. W. Lowther, parliamontary socre- taty for foreign affairs, denios that the most recont detalls of the nogotiations have reachod the foreign office, but as anxiety for an early settlement becomes heightened by overy day’s cable dispatches, a postponement of the governmont’s explanation will not be accorded beyond the end of next week. Sentiment Agalnst Salisbury. The motive for Lord Sallsbury’'s conduot is well known in oficial circles, and 1s found in the promptings of Sir Charles Tup- per, who has been advising tho government 10 show fight against a renowal of tho modus vivendi on the ground that it is not fair to Canada, as it will lock up capital now 1n- vested in sealers. Apart from the extreme tory organs tho opiuion of the country is doad agast Lord Salisbury for risking a quarrel with the United States for the sake of the small capital fuvested in fish boats, The difficulty causes no excitement among tho ministerialists, who rely upon Lord Sal- isbury’s prudence, nor Is'a serious rupture with the United States thought possible on cither side of the hous Lord Salisbury’s final acceptance of the modus vivendi is held to be inevitabic, What stirs the opposition is tho needless discustion of & comparatively trival matter tending to excite irritation in America, With reference to that other trouble, Cana- d's infraction of the treaty of 1817, forbid- ding warships on the lakes vevond a limited reservation, colonial offico advices divest the action of the Dominion government of the im- portance which the cable dispatches attribute to the matter. According to these advices one Canadiau vessel has been built, de- signed for lighthouse service, but now des- tined to wateh for smugglers on the lower St. Lawrence. Afraid of Public Opinion, A potent factor guiding Lord Salisbury’s policy to harmony with the Wasbington gov- crnment is tho fact thayon the eve of the goneral election it is impossible to risk in- curring popular anger by allowing the arbi- tration to collapso ata moment when it ap- pears to be on tho verge of succes nce Mr. Cremier's motion in favor of a permanent treaty of arbitration with the United States was indefinitely postponed, under the pressure of the government basi- ness, & report has circulated in the lobbies of the louse of Commons that Lord Salisbury bos received private assurance that tho American_government will negotiate such a treaty, The liberals accept the reportas true, and if the session lasts boyond Iaster Mr Cremier will renew tho motion, which 1s cortain to bo carried. In the event of earlier dissolution the resolution will bo brought up as early as possible after the assombling of the new Parliament. Stung Into Activity, tung fnto activity by the progressives’ capture of the London county "council, the moderates have burriedly called a meeting of delegates of 130 property defense societies. and have agroed on a plan of co-operation to opposo progressive projocts within and with- out Parlament. The progressive leaders will postpone their attack on the landlords until the new Parliament meets, when bills for the taxation of ground rents and tabula- tion of city corporation monopolies will be promoted. A section of the council proposes a lovy on the total value of ground rents that will realize an annual revenue of £4,000,000 with which the council may rovel in socialist reforms. “I'he prospect of the appointmont of a suc- cessor to the late Cardinal Manning has led to a aiscussion in Masonic circles on the rec- ognition of the Briush by the Catholic church, ' In alettor Sir Charles Diike con- tonds that the time is opportune for Catholic authorities in England ana_the colonies to discriminate botween tho Free Masons, with their harmless symbolic rights, oractically benefit societies, and secret socioties under tho ban of the vatican. Sir Charles’ name will not recommend the proposal to the Cath- olic clorgy, but the fact of tho recognition of religion in'the Enghish lodges, tho sbsence of political bias and the fact that thousands of English clergymon aro Masons, may fn- duco the vatican to modify is antagonism.

At NO TROUBLE ANTICIPATED, nors Concerning Boundary the Dakotas Without Fonndation. Yaxkroy, 8. D., March 11,—[Special Tele- gram to Tne Bre.)—C. H. Bates of ths city, the civil engineer who has the contraet tor oxtondiag the 7th standard parallel from the west boundary of Minnesota te the east boundary of Montana, thereby to fix the boundary between the two states of North and South Dakots, says that the rumor to the effect that there is ‘likely to bo trouble Letween tho two states because of the direction of the line through Roberts county to South Dakota is without any foundation in fact. The originator of thai rumor has <imply confounded tho 46th parallel of lat tude with the 7th. standard parallel in b own mind and imagines that the 46th is the 7th standard. The 7tn standard enters Rob- erts county from Minnesota six miles or one township south of the north line of Roberts county, which is marked by the 46th parallel, and the continuing of the standard cuts out a tior of townships of Roberts county on tho north and maites Norih Dakota a present of them. This is all there is in the rumor and no trouble is possible. The line has already been fixed through Roberts county and great granite slabs one mile apart mark the itn standard’s course.
