Dominguez, Spaniard, aged about 3S

tanned the mastery, and almost
cut her head from her body. The tend
then dragged her down stairs and threw
her out upon the pavement iu the court,

accused his wife of infdelity, and said

Want Il Vacation

The Amalgamated Associate on of iron
and steel workers of the Pittsburg dis.
trlct Will ask that all the iron mills be
closed for two months during the sum-
mer, Just as are the glass factories.
This move has been decided upon by
a majority of the lodges, and meets
with general favor among the iron
workers. Two months IN the heated
term, when il IS really too hot
to work before the furnace, would give
the iron workers chance to take a rest
and the EMPLOYERS to make repairs or
rest, as they might decide. In addition,
il Is argued that shut-doB would be
an excellent move, beneficial to trade
ami TO all concerned. The iron workers
made similar proposition to the manu-
facturers last year, but it was rejected.

Animals Believed Co Talk at Christi
 mas Time.
 The stories that are told about Christmas, particularly in the Gail Thai, valley in Carinthia inhabited almost exclusively by Slavs, are remarkable, and seem to have been hardly even colored by Christianity. The belief that horses and cattle talk in human language with each other on the night be- tween the 24th and the 25th of December is universal there; whether the roes and cha mois enjoy the same privilege or are subject to the same penalty seems to be an open question, as few persons care to wade through the snow, to climb mountain, or even to take up their abode in a wood, in or der to listen to their discourses Even with respect to domestic animals. says the Satur- day Review, everything has not hitherto been rendered as clear as we should like it to be. For example, village priest was kind enough to furnish us with the follow ing story, which was written down at once, as much as possible in his own words:
 It is sin to listen to what the animals say, and it always brings i'll luck. A farm servant from distance did not believe the story-a sin which, it may be feared, was shared both by the present writer and his in- formant. Still he retained such a half be- l lief as induced him to hide himself in the stable. The two horses which it contained | talked to each other as follows: eve shall l have hard work to do this day week.
