SNUFF BOXES OF GREAT COST.

Snuff boxes have long been mediums
of diplomacy nnd the favorite object
of the collector's passion. The amount
of sentiment In old snuff boxes can
only be appreciated by those collecting
them, but as virtu their artistic attrac
tions will appeal to the general lie
holder, for the line workmanship of
the very old boxes cannot' be passed
"by. In Europe to this day a snuff box
Is' the prUe gift of royalty to courtiers
deserving recognition. The snuff will
lie absent, but the jeweled etui Is the
more welcome perhaps on that account,
nnd If not added to thefamlly heirlooms
Is often exchanged ot the nearest sil
versmith's for something more useful.

FINEST BUILDING IN AMERICA.

furnish an Idea of the magnitude of
the new library of Congress. It is not
only enormous but Imposing and beau
tiful. It Is conceded to be the grand
est In the world.
The library of Congress was founded
ten years after the United States be
came a nation. It began with n !j.",(IO(l
appropriation for books and one room
set apart in the Capitol. Its annual ap
propriation was $."il. In fourteen
years H.O0U books had been accumulat
ed. Then came the destruction of the
library in 1S14 by the Hrltlsh. A new
start was made the next year with ti,
700 books purchased for $&.D.'iO from
Thomas .lefferson. In 1K.11 there were
no.ntNl books In the library. Of these
:ir.(HK) were destroyed by lire on Christ
mas Day the same year. In 18,"2 there
were 20,000 books. The forty-two miles
of shelves were built to accommodate
the 800,000 volumes now comprising
the library.
Nine years ago work on the new
building was commenced under the
superintendence of the late Thomas
Lincoln Casey, whose death occurred
too soon for hlin to witness the triumph
of his skill. The building Is now com
pleted. It covers one block of ground
nnd cost $0,000,000. It lias not a dark
corner In It, bo skillfully have Inner
courts been placed, aided by 1,800 win
dows. A vast and graceful pile In
granite nnd marble. Without and
within the finest achievements of con
temporary sculptors and pnlnters. The
new Library of Congress stands fore
most among the buildings of the world
designed for similar uses.

The Russian minister of the interior,
acting under instructions from the czar,
has alleviated the severity of the press
laws in all the larger towns .ami cities
of the empire, in fact wherever the pop
ulation is over 100,000, by exempting
the newspapers from the obligation of
submitting all articles on political sub
jects to the censor before publication.
Hitherto only a few of the principal
papers at St. Petersburg, Moscow,
Warsaw and Odessa have enjoyed this
immunity.
The Herman military authorities
have decided that in future all bicy
cles for the army shall be constructed
in the government establishments. The
imperial gun factory at Spamlaii will ac
