Muley Hassan. the present Sultan OF
Morocco, lives a retired life at the capi-
tails of Fee aud Morocco, and rarely ever
appears in public to his subjects, while it
is still less seldom that any European can
obtain view of his august person. He
assembled the throne on the death of his
father, Sid Mohammed, which occurred
on the Goth of September, 1876, at the
age of little more than thirty, when,
already distinguished for his personal
valor and good generalship, he defeated
his rivals and stringently put down all
attempts at revolt He is now forty. five
years of age. though his commanding
figure would almost make one think him
great deal less, did not his face wear
lines that show not only the steady ap-
preach of years, but also sure signs of
pain and suffering. He possesses six
thousand wives, whom be keeps in
harems at Fee, Morocco and Methunes.
He also has travelling harem which con-
stantly attends him. His life is simple,
as is all life in Morocco; but at the same
time, when occasion demands he can APP
pear in such state as scarcely court in
Europe can rival.

where the Piutes Get the Idea of Hold
tag Eandanges.

Ssgehens have fandango every Spring,
aud the Virginia Chronicle thinks the In
dams got the idea of holding fandsngos
from the birds, 1t says: The male birds
call each other every morning and evening
for couple OF weeks, and the effect is
seen in the collection Of the birds in large
numbers in the locality selected for the
fandango. A large open space on the
hillside is where the observer will find
them. There they flock together for sew
eral days, the males in the center, sur
rounded by the hens. The males strut
about and show off their best points to a
host of admiring hens.
The males hold their heads high, ruf
fling their feathers and making peculiar
cackling noise. This continues for a
couple OF weeks, morning and night, and
during the day they separate to the feed
ing grounds. Towards the end of the
fandango each male walks around the cir
Gle alone till one of the hens enter, when
both fly cat as mates for the year.
