One Politioal Offender Who Live 4n
Comparative Luxury.
How a political exile live In Siberia
is shown lu M. II. Price's book "Si
berlu." Mr. Price encountered this ex.
tie at Minusinsk. He and bis family
lived In a large bouse, oud bis actual
punishment seems to consist of a cer
tain social ostracism consequent upon
banishment from the treat centers of
Husslan life.
When 1 went to call upon blni bo
came to tbe door bluiself and, showing
me In through a room where be and
bis wife bad been baring tbeir even
ing meal, usbered me into a room be
yond. I noticed bis calm, philosophical
face was tbat of a man who bad evi
dently endured mental strain with stoi
cal fortitude, but bis. wife, more nerv
ous than be. showed signs of former
anxiety. It seemed strange Indeed that
1 should be sitting in company witn
two members of high Russian society,
now ostracized by exile to Siberia, and
stranger still to partake of tbeir Intel
ligent conversation on topics or human
Interest
First of all I was interested to know
what sort of restrictions were placed
upon tbe exile's liberty. 1 found that
be was not allowed to leave tne dis
trict In which be resided and tbat ev
ery week he bad to sign his name In
a book kept at tbe bouse of tbe cblef
nacballnk. With that exception his
life was free. He hod money, and be
could live as be liked and go where be
wished within tbat district, bat he was
continually watched by spies, who
dogged bis footsteps wherever he went
"He related to me how be had ac
quired gold concessions on the Mo&
siollan frontier and was hoping to find
capital to float a syndicate for working
them next year. This was not at an
my idea of the life of a Siberian exile.
Instead of being made to work him
self In the galleries of the gold mines
till death released him from his chains,
the exile now floats mining syndicates."

INFINITUDE OF SUNS.
Those We Know Are at Nothing to
Those Beyond Our Ken.
Tbe photographs of 25,870 standard
plates show the points, or images, of
100.000,000 suns. These have not neon
actually counted, but plntes secured by
exposure iu telecnnieras to typical
regions of the sky have, aim the enure
number bus been subjected to the cal
culus of probabilities, resulting In tbe
general number of HKi.OOii.tHHJ coiossni
suns.
These have been weighed that is.
their combined foue r gravitational
attraction has been computed. This
led to one of the most overwhelming
discoveries-mi mi'l.v. this entire pull of
attractlous of the. quantity of matter
Jn 100.000,0(10 suns as massive as our
own sun could not even begin to im
part the high speclllc speeds of several
well known "numwa.v" nj. These
are dashing through what has been
named space with velocities so much
greater than all other suns that they
are a class by themselves.
Our sun contains times more
matter than Is iu the earth, and this
multlnlied b.v 100.000.000 reveals the
quantity of matter known to exist, be
yond all human imagination. But this
immense mass may almost be ignored
as a mere fraction in comparison with
the cleantle ounntity necessary to im
part a velocity of from 150 to 200 miles
per second to these suns flying athwart
the sidereal universe.
Let the number of these suns or dark
bodies run up to trillions or octillions,
then the'entire Quantity of matter in
all of them would be less than the
weight of one grain of Band if com
pared to an Infinite quantity of matter.
