The people are patient, enduring and

Sugar,

The exact date of the invention of
sugar is lost In the midst of fable.
However, sugar is said to have beeI
known to the Chinese three thousand
years ago, and there is not much doubt
but that the manufacture of the article
was carried ON under the Tsin dynasty
two hundred years, b. G. A strong clam
for priority has been made for India.
Probably the Hindoos learned the art
from the Chinese, ard from India the
knowledge was carried west. Three
hundred and twenty years Il. G.. Alex
ander sent Nearchus with a large fleet
down the Indus to explore the adjacent
countries, When that officer returned
from his expedition, he brought TO
Greece an account of the Sugar which
the Asiatics made from cane, without
any assistance from bees. This was
the earliest idea the western nations
had of sugar, the Jews, Egyptians,
Babylonians and Greeks knowing moth
ing of its use. AS late as A. ID. $50,
sugar was prescribed by Galen, the IA
nous physician, as medicine. During
the wars of the roses, about li54, Mar
garet PastOn, wife of wealthy gentle
man of Norfolk, wrote = her husband,
begging that he would ''youchsafe" to
send her a pound of sugar. AS late as
the year 100, all Englond consumed
only twenty million pounds in the
course of a year.

A Moorish House.

Coming by what may be called a
mistake up one of these unguarded
archWays IN deserted alley, We had i
confused glance of a splendid court of
bright greenery, walls white rs snow,
playing fountains, Tlch mcSaics, marble
payements-a sight TO ill the head for
life with delicious dreams. 1t Is type
of iirst-clasS Moorish house: many of
the dwellings which lie behind these
prison walls are built ON the same plan
"a central court surrounded with long,
narrow wIndowless rooms opening on
to a balcony of Moorish horseshoe arch
ways by wide door, which serves in
the day for both air and light and is
closed at night by a curtain. One side
of the court is for the servants, one for
the women and children, and one for
the master, the other being reserved
for receptions and friends. The court
yard of the wealthler class Is laid IN
chased marbles, with mosaic basins,
and fountains, which play surrounded
by graceful greenery, under whose
shade meals are often taken; in the
heaven-open courts the grander parties
are held. These rooms are furnished
with never-failing taste, and thg gala
attire of the family is marvellous alike
for simplicity and pomp and grace of
color. The poorest and richest dwell
lings are of the same general plan.

.fydah Land and its People.

Mountains clothed with dense for
ests of cedars, spruce and hemlock
cover most of the surface of the coun-
try we are about to enter. Numerous
wonderful inlets, sounds and channels
divide it into an archipelago Of many
Islands, of which Graham, MOresby,
Provost, North Louis, Lyell and Barn.
aby comprise the greater portion of
their area. Although SO far nerth, be-
ing directly under the influence of the
warm Japan current, which sweeps
along these shores, their climate Is mild, !,
Winters rarely severe, snowfall gener-
ally lignt except in the mountains, and
rainfall ranging from forty to seventy
inches, according to local topography,
the western slopes of the mountains re-
ceiving much the largest amount.
Their most valuable resources are iSh,
lumber, fur, seal, sea otter and coal.
Veins of gold and copper have been
found, but not sufficiently developed to
Indicate their extent and value. They
are inhabited exclusively Gy the Hydah
Indians, now numbering about 500
souls, who live in the villages of Mas
otlI anu NhluCAllt, Oll
Gold Harbor, on Maud Island, in Skide-
gate Inlet; Gumstrewa, on Moresby Is
land; Skedanee, on Lyell Island; TanOo
or Laskeck, on TanOO Island, and at
Ninstints, on little island opposite the
west coast entrance To Houston, Stew
art Channel.
Their origin, In the absence of any
written record or historical inscriptions
is an interesting subject Tor speculation.
Their features, tattooing, carvings and
legends indicate that they are caStawayS
from Eastern Asia, who, first reaching
the islands of Southern Alaska, soon
took and held exclusive possession OF
the Queen Charlotte group. Their
physical and intellectual superiority
over the other north coast Indians, and
also marked contrasts III the structure
of their language, denote a different
origin. They are of great size, with
exceptionally well developed chests and
arms, high fOreheads and lighter CON-
plexion than any other American In.
dams. MasSett, the principal and pro-
badly oldest village of the Hydah ma
tiOn, is pleasantly situated on the north
shore of Graham Island, ,at the entrance
to Massett Inlet. Fifty houses, great
and small. built of cedar logs and
planks, with forest of carved poles in
front, extend along the line beach. The
house OF Chief Wecah is 30 feet square,
containing timbers of immense size and
planks three feet and half In width
and eighteen inches thick. The village
now has population of about 80, the
remnant of once numerous people, the
houses in ruins here having accOmmo-
dated several times that number. Mas
sett is the shIpyard OF the Hydahs, the
best canoe makers on the continent,
who supply them to the other coast
tribes. Here may be seen i'll all stages
of construction these canoes, which,
when completed, are such perfect mo-
dels for service and of beauty. This is
the abode of the aristocracy of Hydah
Land; of head chief Edensaw and of
Wecah Stilta, kinaskilas kiltslouia,
Spence and C0otay. minor chieftains,
who have but little now remaining ex-
cept their titles, of which they are very
proud.

A letter from Egypt says: The only
primitive costumes We saw was on the
first day after leaving Asson on the left
bank-the country of ihe kalabesh-
where the young ladies simply wore
round the loins fringe composed of
thin leather strips. The married ladies'
were clothed To their feet. CuriouSly
enough the women on both banks hate
or dread being looked at through i
glass. One | saw run away, screaming
as hard as she could; others at once
cover their blanching faces with their
hands. IL is fact not generally known
that dark skinned ladies blush white.
Others again anathemlze you according
to fashion extending all over the east,
even among the Greeks of Constantine.
pie, by holding up the hand, palm out
wards, and jerking it towards you.
This am told means, may five devils
seize you'll If they wish to emphasize
the spell, they put up ten figures.
Others say this is protection against
the evil eye. At some villages, encour-
aged by the soldiers who flung biscuits
from the decks, lads and girls ran fran
tically along the banks, screaming for
them, to the great indignation of the
landowners, over whose crops they ran
riot. In vain those colored gentlemen
stood in the way, flinging mud and
stones at them. They scrambled by,
and continued the chase rs long rs bis
cults were flung, or until dead beat.
