THE DECEPTIVE KID.

81 like 10 go to school," quoth James,
Onto his ma and pa;
81 love my books my desk. my slate
That's right, praised his papa.
Oh. yes the school was liked by Jim,
(The sad young hypoeritel,
Where he raised Cain" from morn till eve,
And studied not a bit.
He loved his books-dime novel ones
He'd read behind the desk,
And on his slate would picture his
Kind teacher most grotesque.
He'd throw big spit-bans at the girls,
And twas standard joy
For him TO place a sharp bent pin
Beneath some other boy.
With ink he'd daub the whitewashed walls
And used his buttered b, cad
He'd brought for lunch to grease the black
Boards of the schools instead.
On red-hot stoves he'd rubber put,
To make a stencil most vile.
And scattered parlor matches heads
Along each Travelled aisle.
He'd paste the old school Bibles leaves
With mueiisge all up
Drop dead mice in the water peii
And hide the drinking cup.
A million other tricks he'd do.
Both misrhievous and bad,
And then go home at night and lie like sin t.
mis- creduicus parents about his goody
soOdy qualities, progress in his classes
etc, until they fairly worshiped him fo
being so devoted to his lessons and such
4 meek and guileless lad.

than three centuries, Fountains, flowers,

the diamonds and gold that were boarded

belief that much treasure is buried here

hidden at the time of the conquest, and
then put to death all who assisted in the
hiding, so that only himself and the high
priest possessed the secret. 4 poor priest,
of a poorer village church, was surprised
by receiving continually valuable contrib
utions from the most INDECENT of his flock

obtained information that the valuables
came from a cave, where they were
discovered with great many more,
and were believed to be part of Montezuma' s

their advice persuaded the Indian to lead
him to the cave, offering to be blind-foded

A LITTLE SCHEME


In his head,s,viz he took several rosaries in
his pocket, and managed slyly to break
the strings and drop the beads, one by
one, all along the route, intending
by their aid to follow the trail at
some future time. Arriving at the cave,
the bandage was removed and he beheld
wonderful store of gold, silver and jewels
whether the hoard of Some smuggier or
highwayman, or really a portion of the
mOnarch's wealth. none could tell; but
the complaisant priest allowed himself
to be securely blinded and led home
by a different route. Upon reach
ing his own house, in great, good
hamor at his supposed success in out
whiting his simple parisbioners, the Indian
guide, with great humility, handed him a
quantity of beads, saying: II have kept
faith with your reverence, but you had the
misfortune to break your rosary aud drop
the beads on the way. / have, however,
picked them all up carefully and return
them to you. You will not find one miss
ing"
Notwithstanding many traditions of con-
cealed Indian wealth, but little has actu-
ally been recovered, though every cave and
mound has been searched. Occasionally

In the midst of which will arise Guatimo-

The celebrated monastery occupies a
central hill--a massive pile, with domes
and turrets, surrounded by cloisters and
dormitories, all inclosed within a high
stone wall, and completely hidden from
the outer world by monarchs of the forest,
whose giant arms are stretched protectingly
around it. How many years have gone by
since the monks held high carnival here,
nobody seems to know According to the
date inscribed On n marble slab let into the
wall the oldest of the buildings was erected
in 1906. Dilapidation and decay is written
upon everything; the insidious tooth of
time" has been busy, and the glamour of
antiquity is over all. In days that are gone
the whole valley of Desierto was garden
of fruits. flowers and fountains, where the
pious friars secluded themselves in such
delightful retreats that the fairest ladies of
the capital were constrained to seek them
out. Enormous cellars beneath held their
wines, ct cetera, and among the subterra-
mean passages leading to the gloomier
vaults is a chapel, where hung that sacred
picture of Our Lady of Carmel. After the
Punishment and departure of the Carmel
ties the Dominicans held the fort for many
a year. and then these dismal vaults were
utilized as places of torture, and for the
imprisonment of religious victims. One
might easily lose himself in these
LABYRINTHAN PASSAGES,
And here are subterranean wells and cis-
terms leading to deeper vaults which have
echoed many groan of despair during the
