Whon thenar itics c Kamftwd it the bast of them at onco pranc uuced' Jt-a revelaffion of what had' before b sen subjected, and that was thai, Tolstoi's psafc intellect is clouded and his mental faci altics disordered. It is truo that o- xaeionalSj in thisdittla work lines appear which suggest the author of "Anna Khremna." and of "sace and War,-" hut thiise hints of genius, arq infrequent. The s'bry saw Tcork of liter ary art would have .aarariedjno attention whatovrir had not Toteeca written it. Ip may a!ro be said rthat tins great realist xvoukl have desDi led himvelf in liis besu days had he belle fed that his pen would ever commit such 1 1 thing as if&is to paper. In saying this the literary ar-, the-power of realistic reprot luction and the great Virility which ha v heretofore- charactttt ized Tolstoi are ref jrred to. Those persons wl 10 buy the book expect ing to be delighted with it as they wexefor instance, with that .cm quisite short story of bis which he called 4 The Codsacks," wiL bo bitterly disappoin ted On the other hand, thosa who have) purchased it expect ing to find therein something whidiwill give delight to a dfce.-i sed imagination and to a fondness for the sugge--tive and for bidden, will also be disappointed and re gret that they spent a penny for the book. Tho subject which '.Tolstoi treats in the story is the marriage relations, but it is treated with tho brutility of a dissecting Inife, and a dull oct? too, at that, rather than the passionate v aimth and romantio imaginings which characterize some of the French writers. It is more like a medical n ork than a novel, and therefore it will give but little delight to those who have found pleasure in "Tho Quick and the Dead," "A Modern Marriage," "The Paco That Kills," and oohur novels of tho sen sual school. It tends to kill warmth rather than to create it, and it is safe to say that readers will throw the book down, not only disgusted, but wearied by it. In the view of many of the critics hii etory of "Tho Cossacks," which is an ex quisitely volaptuous book, is far moro rep rehensible than "The Kreutzer Sonata." Por "The Cossacks" is a magnificent exhi bition of Tolstoi's powers, a supreme work of art, and vivid and delightful in the per fection with which the characters are ma terialized. In all modern fiction there is not a more perfect, truly flesh and blood creature than tho Cossack girl whom Tol stoi painted, nor is there a moro taking .scene for the -voluptuary than one which is described in this little novel. It is, how ever, such a great work of genius and its art is so superior that it is not regarded as reprehensible at all. Some effort has been made to take ad vantage of the notoriety given to "Tho Kreutzer Sonata" by tho postoflico authori ties, but it is tafcto predict that this repu tation will be shortlived, and thowork will he consigned to the flames by every one r ho buys it as woarisome, nauseating and untrue. For Tolstoi's argument in it is that tho marriutge relation is all wrong, and that the perfect lifo for men and wom en to lead is practically one of celibacy. One aspect of the work, however, has oc curred to somoof Tolstoi's worshipers. It is that tho author is not striving to teach a lesson, but is dimply portraying tho mental disease which jealousy causes. If that was his purpose then it must bo said that ho was realisticaa he had never been before, and from that point of view his art is per fect. Tolstoi, however, has destroyed this hope of his-admirers by declaring that he wrote tho book to teach a monstrous les fcou. E. J. Edwakds. Among: tbo "Women of Turkey. Constantinople,, July20.

X Relic Preserved by One A.A7ho Helped Capture tho Abolitionist. Mr. A. B. Allen, residing at No. 1,224 New Jersey avenue, Washington, has in his possession an interesting relic of tho mid of John Brown at Harper's Ferry in lb59. This is one of the spears used by Brown and his men vrhen they attempted tho liberation of the slaves in that vicinuy. The spear head is of iron, about eight inches m length, and is like a two edged knife blade on a substantial socket, into which the staff a piece of hickory six feet long is fastened. Mr. Allen secured this relic, as well as a rifle when, after Brovvn's capture, he and some others were pressed into senico and placed on duty at the en gine house to guard tho abolitionist aud those captured with him. Mr. Allen had been employed by a citizen to capture two of his slaves who had run away Tho only clew as to the direction the fugitives had taken was information that they had gone up the canal. At tho time of their departure there had been no tidings receiA-ed hero of Brown's inten tions although it was possible that some of the slaves had been privately notified of them. Mr. Allen came to the conclusion that the runaAvays might be headed off by taking the railroad, and took tho tram. "I went up by wav of tho Relay house and the main line.-'aid Mr. Allen, "entirely oblivious of what was going on at the ferry. "When we came opposite the ferry on the Maryland side the train was stopped. Then wo learned by rumor of the fighting at the ferry We could hear all kinds of rumors, aud the train from the west had not been heard from This was the train run by Capt. Jack Phelps, who was well known uerc as one of the leseas of she J Alexandria and Washington railroad. There were only twen?y-dve or thirty of us on tho train, and we remained on thi sido all night. We heard during tho night the movement of a train over the river, and finally Phelps' tram came over. We then learned that Brown' ran had stopped and held the train far some hoc, bur thnt the loader Avhen he waa informed that the United State mail was on the train al lowed it to pas. We then learned that in the lighting in the town some had been killed and others wounded, ivot kSQlrin- Largest Stock in the State CHAMPION, STAPLE. oFF& STATIONERY, Wichita, Kansas. rN Orders by mail Wichita, Kansas. and Dealers in Brass Goods, Rubber and Wichita, Kansas.

"In the morning the marines arrived from the barracks in this city and they et once proceeded to put down the insurrec tion. A Capt. or Lieut. Kusssll, I be liee, was in command, and under his orders tho marines Avere marched to the engine house, Avhore Brown and a few of his men were. As we afterward ascer tained, ths insurgents could have killed eA-ery one of the marines had they been so disposed, for they had arms and ammuni tion and in the walls of the engine house had been cut loopholes on every side. Tho marines dnding the door fastened secured a ladder and used it as a ram bursting in the door. "We that is those of the passengers who had been pressed into service having seen this from the bridge at once rushed i down. I remember that when I first saw John Brown he was lying Anth his head renting on the back cf an upturned chair. I looked at him and at once recognized hhn as a man I had seen before, m fact, I had seen him only a week or ten days previous ly in 'Squire Down's office. He had been wounded, I believe, in the shoulder, but if he suffered he did not snow it m his coun tenance or by words. Ho ws attired in Avhat appeared to be country goods, and AAith hi long gray beard looked like a Aveil-to-do, care-for-not-hmg farmer. I was with him about three hours and a half, and heard enough to satisfy me that he was a badly disappointed man, and n force of two to three hundred men he had ex pected from Pennsylvania had failed to materialize. In the afternoon the bodies of these of Brown's men Avho had been killed Avere removed, and n party went up on tha heights to search for arms, but was then unsuccessful. '"The next party that went oat was re warded hv finding two boxes of rifies and spearfw.to ammunition. I was on guard when Governor Wise came up and had a talk with Brown and thre or four other priiouers. The conversation betweea BroAvn and tho governor lasted abont an hour and a half. Of comie, recognizing Wise as the governor cf the stwe, I stood off some dittanee and did not listen to what was said. Brown I understood to tall the governor frankly what avus his inten tion, keeping nothing back, and I believe he expres.ed ius disappointaient that he had. failed, and thai extected friaudtrtuLnos j Cigar Headquarters.

In his old ago "Unci Billy" Green, of Tallula, His., Is known as the "Sao ot Tallula." Eufty ysars ago his neighbors, called hiha "Slicky Billy" because of his psoternatnral sharpness at a trade.. It was in the early days of his career thatjacmet Abreham Lincoln, end now that ho has nearly closed the-eighth decade of an active life beioves to dwell-upon incidents of his association with the war president' of tfc. United. States. Not long ago he chot?d volubly upon the subject with Col. Phocion toward, another Illinois old timer. Green, ic seems, was Lincoln's partner in a groc ery at Salem, and at night, when customers w ej: e few, ho held ths grammar while Lincoln recited his lessons. T o his sympsthetic ear Lincoln told the story of hi love forsTpeetAnn VSCLZ BT1XT GBTZS. Rutledgc. He saw the happy pair strolling through tho woods about old Salem or boating on the rivor, or lingering long over the bucket of wator which Lincoln drew from the well for Ann. He offered what comfort he could to Ms friend whan poor Ann died, and Lincoln's great heart nearly broke. "After Ann died," says Uncle Billy, "oa stormy nights, when tho wind blew tho rain against the- roof, Abe would set thar in tho.grocery, his elbows on his knees,hii face in his hands, an' the tears runnia' through his fingers. I hated to see him. feel so bad, an' J!d bay, 'Abe, don't cry;' an' he'd look up an' say, 1 can't help it, Bill, the rain's a-fallin' on her.' Green saw his friend rise in greatness and favor with the people until ha was elected t sident of the nation. At Lin coln's first inaugural banqutx Green sat at the table on the president's left with the dignified secretary, Seward, on his right. Lincoln presented the two men to each other, saying, Secretary Seward, this is Mr. Green, of Illinois." Seward bowed stiffly, when Lincoln exclaimed: "Oh, get up, Seward, and shake hands with Green. He's the man that taught me my grum mar." Uncle Billy delights to tell this story, and adds: "The idee of my teachiu' Aba Ian coin anything. Why, lot mo tell you that when he got through with, that grammar he used to study he kuowed more grammar than the man that -ss the book. This was Abe's greatness that when he know a thing he knew it better than anybody, an' he could tell it to the mot ignorant man so he'd know all aboutit," Lessening Sable Island'." Terror. Sahle Island, Avhich lies about 200 miles to the Avest of "Halifax, Nova Scotia, is little known save to shipwrecked mari ners. So many sailors have been cast a&hore there that it has gained tho noma of tho "ocean graveyard." The island is used as a beacon station on which the Canadian government maintains tAvo light houses and stores of provisions to be used in cose of ship-A-recks. As there is no com munication between Sable island and the main land except by means of chance ves sels, it has. often happened thac ship wrecked seamen have been kept on ifc for a long time Avithout being able to make their condition known. Tho Dominion government now proposes to overcome this difficulty by establishing a regular system of pigeon post between tho island and Halifax. A homory in to ha estab lished at the latter place, and an occa sional consignment of trained birds is to bo despatched to the former, Avhich will bo avuilablo as mesiengers hi any. special emergency.

GLOBE, 418 Boi Ave n KM FOR GOLD. Men Who Sweep All Scruples from Their Path. FORCINS FORTUNE'S FATORS. One Adventurer Is Now Dying in a Peni tentiary, Another Is in Custody, a Third Is a Furtive and a Fourth Lies Sis in by His Otto Hand. Stronger than the love of woman, fiercer than the desire of the man-eating tiger, mightier than the -whirling fury of the cyclone is the never satisfied thirst of that rapacious portion of the human race whose thirst is the thirst for gold. Long ages have passed sinceJKing Midas had his wish, and felt the yellow wlno'within the royal beaker turn to molten metal at the touch of his charmed and cursed lips. He had attained his utmost desire; a willing god had granted his request; riches beyond the most tremendous dreams of avarice dis played themselves beneath the magic of his merest touch. Yet his life was anguish, and his death fantastic in the terror of its torments. So much for the old legend, the sym bolical myth of grasping cruelty which at tains its object, grinds beneath the heel of 5jr oppression or fraud M'kfif- l0 victims of its in gJt&Zk&th satiate desire, and K stands triumphant ,3? but dismayed upon cstajujayn the awful pinnacle of V3 M'CABTNEr,1830. e success that has been reached regardless of others' suffer ing, and from which the victor M'CARTNET 1876. stretches out an appealing haHii only to learn too late that depths of misery attend the achievement of success, and that the golden prize within his grasp has crushed like an apple of Sodom and disclosed an interior made up only of the abhes of dis appointment. The tale is world old but ever new thi3 (ale of men who have struggled along de vious and desperate pathways to secure tho vast power that wealth alone can give. Some have sought the fields of speculation and climbed to prosperity with pitiless glee over the wrecked fortunes of their less lucky but equally culpable comrades. Others have toiled and saved and hoarded, starved their bodies, impoverished their minds and viewed only, glimmering through the darkness of their mental and physical squalor, the glorious yet sullen star whose name is gold. Still others havo trod the somber highway of crime, and endeavored by brute force or cruel cun ning to wrest from tho honest, the credu lous or tho unguarded the treasure which represents the accumulations of honest in dustry. For all of these, tho swindler, the thief or the miser, there is but one end. The unlawful thirst for cjold means almost without exception disappointment, dis grace and death.

HARRY S. MAXSEIELD. Take, for example, the ease of Pete Mc Cartney, who is gasping out the last days of his life in the Ohio penitentiary. Prob ably no man in tho United States has had a better general education or has made a more thorough study of the principles of sngraving. He is a skillful chemht, an expert manufacturer of tho finest of art ists' tools, and possesses a remarkable knowledge of the manner in which paper used for bond or monetary purposes is made. Yet for forty years this singularly gifted man has devoted all his energies, education aini speci.il skill to the uttering Df rounteiftt currency. His illicit enter prises, undertaken with a desire to accu mulate a fottuno at the expense of others, have brought him. on the whole, nothing but merited disaster, and now old, penni less and forsaken, the famous king of American counterfeiters lies dying within the frowning walls of a prison. He is but one, however, of the many who have defied the law and found that the law Is more powerful than criminal ingenuity. One of his younger brothers in tho com radeship of crime the other day began his experience of tha thorny road along which McCartney so long has trod. His namo ia Harry S. Mansfield, sad until recently he fi-as the trusted agent at Topeka, Kan., of 0 sEraon: insca. the Kansas and Texas Coal company.

As an attorney he swindled wiiJows and orphans; as a newspaper man he abused the confi dence of his associates, and as an acquaint ance he imposeQ upon the credulity of those who trusted him. Now, with his pockets full of ill gotten wealth, ho is a fugitive from justice. The cases cited above are sorrowful to contemplate, but probably none of the three can equaliin horror of detail that of the Kansas City.tniser, Peter Lefler. This miserable old man hadlived out the allot ted tale of threescore and ten years. His early history is obscure, but for the last quarter of a century he bad kept a small store on North Third street. He dwelt alone in a miserable hovel. Outside of business hours he 3hunned his fellow man and he was regarded by his neighbors as a poor unfortunate whose scanty income from trade brought him the bare necessi ties of life. But the outcome shows that he like the others was a victim of the aw ful and relentless thirst for gold. Ho had toiled and saved, and spared himself in no direction that he might add to his store of shining metal. At the age of 70, alone, friendless, unattended, he first saw the hollownes3 of h.is lrfe's ambition, and lock ing up his little shop sought tho filthy back room in which he had spent so many solitary nights and ended his dreary life with a shot from a revolver. So meager was his patronage that days passed before the poor wretch's tragic end was known. "When found he sat dead in a chair. A frightful hole marked the mid dle of his forehead". He was naked above the waist. His false teeth, says The Kan sas City Times, protruded several inches from tho mouth. The nose had rotted and sunk into the skull, leaving only a deep indentation, and maggots were worming themselves in and out of the apertures in his face. He was thought to be a pauper, but in the cellar was found a bag of gold PETEE LEFLF.il. pieces. In a drawer lay a bank book show ing a large sum to his credit, and notes given by responsible parties for hundreds of dollars. The till also contained a hand some sum of money. In addition to these was found a will by the provisions of which small fortunes were left to five persons living in Baden, Ger many, and two other people resident in Kansas City. The old man directed that after the payment of these bequests and a magnificent disbursement for his funeral the residue of his estate should be turned over to tho Young Men's Christian associa tion of Kirwas City, with the exception of his stock of goods, which he bequeathed to an old cripplo named William Taylor. Viewed in all its aspects can it bo said that there is one redeeming feature to brighten tho somber history of the world old inordinate greed for gold? Feed. C. Datton-.

Claude Rosaire lived with a French Can adian family in southern Michigan until ho was 23 yecirs old and believed himself a son. In a moment of auger three years ago his supposed father declared that Claude was an illegitimate son. This so hurt the young man that he ran aw3y to Chicago. He has not seen the family I since. Tho other day he received an an onymous letter stating that his grand mother was the Duchesse de Saint Al laiie, of Normantiie, who tied from a cruel husbaad to Amer:ca with hor only child. This child eventually married a Confed erate soldier, Claude tjeing born to tirem a year or two afterward. Another woman (tho writer of tho letter; loved tho hus band, and in hor aagor stole tho child. The father, in despair over the loss, com mitted suicide; tho mother has disappear ed. Inclosed ia the anonymous letter to Claude was tho certificate of bis father's and mother's marriaa.

A young men at one of tho hotels went"to a magistrate and in formed him that be wrsbfed to be married, and that ha wrxtld be around in a short time with his lady. The jasfcica informed his wirb of what, was to happen, xhat every thing mighs bo iu readiness. In a short thne a youmr gentleman, accompanied by a young lady, called into th tore of tie aforesaid matron, and as they appeared somewhat bbful the juste's berter half supposed they were the couple who wished to be made one, so she invned tfaem into tho uining room, and placing a coupis of chairs qaire near together bade them bo seated, v cry soon the jtisuca appeared upon the scene, with book in hand, and immediately began to road the marriage service The young man srew very red in tho face, and springing to bis feet demand ed. "What In thusder dec? all this meAn" Why," said the afigwtrate, "1 am going to marry you." "But," said the young fel low, "I don't want to gur married," and ho and his girl made a boidscrike for the door, leaving the justice in rt stupor.
