The child was af flicted with a rare cerebro spinal com plaint. a most unpleasant manifesta tion of which was a frequent hic cough. and eminent physicians, both In America and Europe, had pronounc ed the case organic and incurable. Liter there came to live In the vil lage a widow with a little girl affected Imilar to the millionaire’s daughter. T’ ' 1 child was a delicate, flower faced iture, wistful from the isolation that must have liecn her sad lot, and the peculiar bark-like hiccough which she made at once attracted the mil lionaire’s attention, and, being a big hearted if rather ignorant man, he gave the mother employment about his home and showered the afflicted child with presents. Terhaps four months after the wid ow’s advent an eccentric German doc tor settled in the village, and. bls serv ices being sought by the widow, lie gave her child treatment, with the re sult that it was completely cured. The millonalre Immediately sought to place his own daughter under the German’s care, but the latter’flatly re fused to take the ease. lie was a Socialist of a violent type and would have nothing to do with a man whose wealth exceeded the sutn that lie bad fixed upon as the lawful limit of ma- terial possession. Finally, however, niter the father had patiently borne the grossest in sults the German agreed to give the afflicted child treatment on condition that the other would first deed Over a large tract of land in Texas for a So cialist colony and pay him for his foe a sum little short of $50,000. This the millionaire did, but as soon as the doc tor had cashed the check he disappear ed with tile widow and her child, and the wealthy man realized that, blinded by paternal love, ho had been made the victim of an ingenious swindle. The flower faced girl of the widow had been taught to simulate a disease, and the German was no doubt her father.

BATES, Proprietor Peter the Great, czar of Russia, pun is bed a traitor on a notable occasion in a way that the numerous victims of the present czar’s wrath might well wish were still In vogue. Mazeppa, chieftain of the Cossacks, had deserted to the king of Sweden, with whom I’eter was at war. Ma zeppa was at once tried by court mar tial and found guilty of high treason. Sentence of death was passed upon him. Mazeppa, however, was safely In the camp of the Swedish king, but this fact was not permitted to stand in the way of the carrying out of every part of the sentence. A wooden effigy of Mazeppa was made, and the punish uients were inflicted upon the Cossack chieftain's substitute. The effigy was first dressed in Ma zeppa's uniform, and uflon its breast were pinned all of the medals, ribbons and other decorations that the real cul prit had worn. While I he commanding general and a squadron of cavalry stood near an officer advanced to the wooden man and read the sentence. Then another officer wrenched off the effigy’s patent of knighthood and his other decora tions, tore them up and trampled upon them. This done, he struck the wood en gentleman a powerful blow In the pit of the stomach, knocking him over. Next a hangman appeared. While the soldier» shouted he threw a noose over the Imitation Mazeppa's head and drag ged the effigy to a nearby gallows, where it was "hanged by the neck until It was dead.”—Scrap Book.
