SPANISH VENDETTAS.


A Striking Instance of the Intensity CT
Family QuarreIs in Spain.
About year ago gypsy named
Morals was assassinated at Zerza, in
the province of Caceres, by one of his
comrades named Silra. The latter was
in due course tried and condemned to
death, but his execution did not satisfy
the vengeance of the victims family.
There had been ill-feeling between the
two families for three years, but there
had been no open quarrel until the muir
der of Morals. Soon after the execu-
ton of the murderer, which took place
last month, the two families met on
their return from fair near the town
of Caceres. They had their mules and
cattle with them There were about
fifty on each side, including women
and children. A regular pitched battle
ensued, revolvers, knives, and sticks
being freely used by the men. while
the women employed their nails with
considerable effect, and the children
threw stones Unfortunately. The
result of the struggle was that tho
heads of the two families were both
killed, two of the women, and several
of the children. There were ten or
twelve wounded, and the bodies of the
dead were horribly mutilated. If the
mounted police had not interrupted the
fight, there would have been many more
lives lost. Several of the mules were
killed, and the baggage of the two
families was strewn about in such dis
order that the road for nearly half
mile looked as if a large army had
beaten a retreat along it.-Madrid Let

see how the children had enjoyed what
l sent, for l feel a good deal of interest
in them. Alick was crazy drunk and
was making a perfect hell upon
earth of his home. Now for my
part | think it is about time for
that suspended sentence you hung
up over him to drop down on him"
'What have you to say for yourself,
AlickP" said his honor. well" said
Alick, drawing long breath. 81 was
drunk again; that's as true as you live,
but, yer honor, how can a common
drunkard keep sober when all his enc
mics outside and inside of him push
him down as fast as he gets up,
and even his best friends hurt him when-
they don't mean to. Now I'll tell yel
honor the square truth, upon my word
| will, and yer honor will see that Tn
not altogether in the fault. l went
round to Mrs. Newman's the other
night, Just as she had told We, and
wouldn't go back on her for the world,
but if it hadn't been for her I'd have
been a sober man to-day. She gave me
big pile of ice cream and a piece OF
cake as big as her own foot, God bless
her. But then she put ladleful OF
Jelly right alongside of the ice-cream,
and, yer honor, it was rum-ielly, strong
enough to bear up small boy; and the
moment it got into the mouth of me
down it went as if it had feet to 20 down
with; yer honor knows how it is yerself,
and when Mrs. Newman came round
again she said to me, won't you have
another dish of ice-cream, AlickP An6
| said to her, indeed l will, if we please,
ma am, and when | started for home
every drop of blood in me was yelling
for whisky and slipped away from the
misses when we was about half way
home, and don't know how it all came
about, yer honor, but | was drunk be-
fore breakfast. What can q weak man
do, when a woman that looks Just fol
all the world like an angel, and she
member of COTS church, too, puts hell
into him by the ladleful and thinks
she's don him kindness? | tell yey
yer honor, it wasn't all Alexis drunk. -
Probably Mrs. Newman was never
more completely surprised in her life
than when she heard Alick' account OF
himself. She belonged to fashionable
church, and the lalits of that church,
had brought together their well-tested
recipes for all manner of choice things
to eat and to drink, and had published
them in the form of handsome recipe
book by the ladies of Dubonton church.
Mrs. Newman had used the book in
making preparations for her party.
Rum, wine, sherry, whisky, brandy
these words were alarmingly frequent
on the fair pages of this wonderful
recipe book, the sale of which had
helped to lift n very troublesome mort
gage on the elegant new church.
Alck was allowed another trial at
Mrs, Newman's urgent request and is
at liberty once more on suspended SEN
tence, while she is beginning to con-
slider whether society ladies are in any
way responsible for the shortcomings
of their neighbors who are weak. On
the whole, she rather thinks they are
responsible to some eXtent.-Eg6ert l..

AN EDUCATIONAL PROBLEM.


Rev. j. G. w. Coke, in a thoughtful
article in the Sunday School Times,
asking: "What can the teacher do for
Temperament writes: ''What can the
Christian teacher do for temperance
The few are in positions of wide inhu-,
ence; their words will be weighty; they
can do much to promote any good work.:
but the many are in obscure localities,
in humble life, in small schools, a ma
iority of them without voice or vote in
publ C affairs what can these do to,
promote this great reform?
"FirSt to he named among the means
of influencing others is the vitality i'm
portant one of a correct example.
Teaching is not all, nor chiefly, by
word Life is more than logic. Char
acter is more weighty than a catechism.
Conduct, Matthew Arnold atfirms, is.
threa-fourths of life. 1t bears larger
proportion to moral teaching. Truth
will have little vitality apart from the
personality of the teacher. One must
be. in order to do and teach. Knowl-
edge and character are both essential in,
a spiritual guide. A consistent example
is the most convincing of arguments
Come inspires conviction, go awak-
ems doubt. The selfish are not likely to
influence others to sacrifice. A wine
drnker can not be relied on to rebuke
a whsky-sot. Home-prewed ale is no
more virtuouS than commercial Xxx.
The New Years sideboard may not sit
in Judgment on the all-the-year bar.
ANY cherished habit Of self-indulgence
weakens ones moral influence. Not a
few are handicapped in their advocacy
of Temperance by the quid or cigar.
VINO can bring clean thing out of an
unclean?' Thou therefore, VIII ch
teachest another, teachest thou not thy
self?"
THE teacher is more than example.
A guide-post is good, but a guide is
better. Precept is necessary in moral
! training; there must be Zine upon line
of positive instruction. The teaching
hour furnishes priceless opportunity.
Then God word is to speak to the in
tellect and heart and conscience. All
other voices should echo the divine
message. If they speak not according
| to this word, it is because there is no

duty there is no lack of instruction in
the Christian textbook. In principles,
if not in positive precept, it covers all
the issues of life For detection or omis-
sion there can be no possible excuse.
| Temperance is q part of the Gospel Ii
is taught in Gods word. 1t should be
taught in the Sunday-schooL 1t is
taught where the Scriptures are faith
fully studied and applied. 1t is taught
more frequently than once a quarter.
The teaching does not depend on the
recurrence of the word Temperance
in the lesson-text. Few portions of
S rupture are selected which do not deal,
d rectly or indirectly, with the under
lying principles of this and every other
great moral reform. There is no lack
of opportunity for Temperance instruc-
ton. No violence will be done to either
letter or spirit of the word, if such
teaching is found in nearly every les
