ORIGIN of THE GYPsIEs.

The conclusion that the gypsies wandered
from India is now almost universally ac-
cepted, but when or from what part of
India are questions on which few have
done more than idly speculate. The iden
tihcation of the gypsieS with the Jsts, who
in the Punjab alone number 1900, 800, has
received the support of many of those whose
opinions on such matters must receive the
greatest respect. In metrical paraphrase
of Genesis made by an Austrian monk
about 1922 they are noticed as Ishmaehtes,
and their descent thus credited to Hagar.
There is tale extant that the wandering
instinct of the gypsies is due TO the fact
that bis ancestors refused 10 shelter the
Virgin and Child in their flight into Egypt.
This race has many other names-such as
Bohemians in France; Ciganos in Portugal; ;
Gitanos in Spain; Hiedens in Holland
Pharaoh-nepek in Hungary; Tartar in Den
mark and Sweden; Wallachians in Italy;
Ziegeuner in Germany.

ROMANTIC DEATH OF A MOUSE.

A few evenings since as a Young lady of
Bridgeport, Conn, was d.essing for a party
a mouse put in an appearance and naturally
enough created considerable confusion, but
finally disappeared. After the lady had
returned from the party and while disrob-
ing for the night, what was her astonisn-
nent TO find the poor mouse in her hustle,
but the place of fancied security it had
sought in the excitement of the chase had
proven death trap. AT some time during
its presence there it had been squeezed to
death. The young lady's feelings can bet
ter be imagined than described.
