The Irish Sultan of Morocco

It is not generally known that be-
sides being the lineal descendant of
the prophets daughter, Fatima, by
her marriage with Mohammed's fa-
nous general Blu Bekr, the present
sultan has some Irish blood in his
veins. In the early part of the pres
ent century an Irish sergeant of sap
pers, who had been detached from the
British garrison at Gibraltar at the re-
quest of Sultan Sidi Mohammed, died
in the latter's service. His widow, a
pretty Galway girl, wishing to be sent
home, sought an audience of his ma
jesty TWAS granted, with the result
that Sid Mohammed, struck by her
beauty, made her an offer of mar
riage, which she accepted. She be-
came the sultan's favorite wife, and
on his death her son, Muley Yezid.
nicknamed 1.-The Red Beard, : assumed
the power, and figures in history as the
most sanguinary monarch known in
the annals of Morocco His favorite
pastime was to roast Jews alive i'll
the body of bull or to play bowls
with the heads of his attendants,
freshly decapitated for the purpose
With strange Inconsistency he would
at other times perform acts of the
most astounding generosity and kind
ness, thus causing his name to be
cursed and blessed In turns.

Honey and the Bat.

An amusing anecdote is related of
George Honey, who, some years ago,
while on tour in the provinces, had
taken lodgings in house on the out
skirts of town. Soon after retiring,
he was awakened by futtering noise,
as Of bird, around the curtain of his
bed. He sprang up, struck a light,
and saw small, dark creature, with
wings, laundering about the room.
Not being we'll versed in natural his
tory, he did not recognize it as a bat;
but thinking it a queer sort of a
bird, he resolved to catch it, if posi-
BILE, and examine it by daylight. So
he took his felt hat and attempted, for
a long time in vain, to capture the in
truder; but at length he bounced upon
it, carefully removed it from his hat
with his hand, shut it up in drawer,
listened while it struggled for few
moments to escape, and then went to
bed and was soon asleep. But he was
not destined to sleep long. Hardly
had he dozed off when further fut-
tering awakened him, and lighting
another match, he found second bat.
He had an exciting scramble before
he caught this one, but finally he sue
ceeded and put it in the drawer with
its companion, and again retired.
Again, however, he was awakened in
a similar manner; bats came not in
single spies, buff the expression be
allowed-in 'battalions Each speci-
men was carefully deposited in the
drawer. At last, after an unusually
long chase, he was SO heated that he
opened the window, and having re-
tired exhausted enjoyed a few hours
sleep. When he awoke he jumped
out of bed and opened the drawer
very cautiously, to look for the prizes
of the night; but lol there were no
bats there! He opened the drawer
wide, and then discovered that it had
no back to it. He had, in fact, spent
his night in catching the same bat,
which had flown out at the back of
the drawer as soon as he had put it in
at the front, and when the window
was opened had finally escaped.

An Eternal Relic.

Asoka, believed to be the grandson
of the Indian sovereign whose realms
were invaded by Alexander the Great,
became convert to Buddhism, and
in extending that form of religion en-
acted part analogous to that of Con
stantine in establishing Christianity.
About fifteen hundred years ago he
distributed morsels of the bones of the
saints to all kings with whom he was
in alliance, and a prince in Guzerat
resolved that his relic should last
while time endured. He inclosed it
in bottle Of gold, and that in a cas-
ket Of silver. and that in a vessel of
copper, and that in a bowl of baked
clay-a substance as durable as the
earth of the world-and that in a
Golfer of claystone, and that in hol
low square of sandstone, and that
again, in a pyramid of brick more
than eighty feet high, and at the base
the same thickness; and finally, as
we understand, description only on
this point obscure, faced the entire
structure with stone blocks. The
prince did not spend all that thought
and labor and treasure only to honor
his relic; he meant to preserve it as
long as India or Time itself should
last, and so well did he plan that he
succeeded in preserving it for fifteen
hundred years.
His dynasty ceased and was even
forgotten, his people changed their
creed and ceased to worship Buddha,
his ciearanoos were abandoned by hui
man beings and the jungle spread its
celebrating mantle over roads and
plain and pyramid, and still the relic
remained as safe in its golden bottle as
it was when the prince placed it there.
And there the British archaologist,
Mr.. Campbell, found it, the NOR,
sci of bone uncalcined, the gold of the
bottle as bright as ever, the silver cas-
ket only furnished, the copper cover
ing only rusted, the bowl of baked
clay unchanged, as it would be if left
there till the world cooled, the clay
stone Golfer unbroken, the sandstone
cavity unviolated, the pyramid still
resisting climate and time and men
who had in some past age sought
treasure in its interior. London Tele-

Bootblacks REQUIRE Capita.

''It requires capital now to become
a first class bootblack, said a ragged
little. dirty faced polisher on Park
row. Until the past four or five years
the shines were distributed wholly by
a miscellaneous assortment of ragged
little darkies, who had no regular run
of custom. Not more than one was
permitted on corner, or four at the
intersection of two streets, and one on
either side in the center of the block.
They were required to bring written
permission from the owner of the
premises before which they desired to
stand.
This brought a revolution in the
business of blacking. The possession
of permanent stands in which they
could not be disturbed as long as they
behaved themselves led to the pur-
chase of chairs and an outfit which
formerly would have been too bulky
to carry about. Some of them have a
platform, studded as the taste of the
magnate suggests, with brass nails,
and prettily carpeted with Brussels
The box contains half dozen brushes
of various sizes, two or three kinds of
blacking and a bottle of water. The
outfit costs considerable for a boot
black.-New York Star.

UNTO THE LEAST OF THESE.

0 children's eyes unchildlikei Children's eyes
That make pure halowed age seem young indeed
Wan eyes that on drear horrors daily feed;
Learned deep In all that leaves us most unwisel
Poor wells. beneath whose troubled depths Truth
lies
Drowned. drowned, alas So does nv sad heart
bleed
When remember you; so does it plead
And strive within my breast as one who cries
The torture OF her first born-that the day,
The long, bright day. seems thicker sown for me
with eyes OF children than the heavens at night
With stars on stars To watch you is to pray
That you MAY some day see an children see
When man, like God. hath said, Let there be
light"
Dear Christ, Thou hadst Thy childhood ere Thy
cross;
These, bearing first their cross, no childhood
know
But. aged with toll through countless horrors
grow
To age more horrible Rough locks atoss
Above drink Redeemed eyes like Southern moss
That drops its tangles to the marsh below;
NO standard dreamed or real by which to show
The piteous completeness of their loss;
No rest, no hope, no Christ; the cross alone
Borne on their backs by day. their bed by night,
Their CHASTITY playthng when they pause to weep,
Their Threat of torture do they dare to moan;
A darkness ever dark across their light
weight that makes waking o. their sleep
Father, who countest such poor birds as fall
Count Thou these children fallen from their place;
Lift and console them of Thy PHYS grace.
And teach them that to suffer is not all;
Hedge them about with love as with wall,
Give them in dreams the knowledge Of Thy face,
And wipe away such stains as sin doth trace,
Sending deliverance when brave souls call
Deliver them, Lord, deliver themi-
These children-as Thy Son was once child
Make them even purer than before they fell,
Radiant in raiment clean from throat to hem;
For. Lord, till Thou hast cleansed these sin de.
filed,
Or such the kingdom, not of heaven but hell

How Women Rest.

How differently men and women
indulge themselves in what is called a
resting spell. II guess I'll sit down
and mend these stockings and rest
awhile" says the wife; but her hus-
band throws himself upon the easy
lounge, or sits back in his armchair,
with hands at rest and feet placed hor-
izontally upon another chair. The re-
suit is that his whole body gains full
benefit of the half hour he allows him
self from work, and the wife only re
ceives that indirect help which comes
from change of occupation A ply
stefan would tell her that even ten
minutes rest in horizontal position,
as a change from standing or sitting
at work, would prove more beneficial
to her than any of her makeshifts at
resting. Busy women have habit OF
keeping on their feet just as long as they
can, in spite of backaches and warn
ing pains. AS they grow older they
see the folly of permitting such drafts
upon their strength, and learn to take
things easier, let what will happen.
They say, II used to think must do
thus and SO, but I've grown wiser and
learned to slight things" The first
wears of housekeeping are truly the
hardest, for untried and unfamiliar
cares are almost daily thrust upon the
mother and home maker.-New York

"Whaloid, Infallible Cure for Con-
sumption. Dispensing hours, to 10
a. M, 8 to p. M" On turning down
Oxford street my attention was at
tracted by this huge sign on the OPP
posite side of the street, and also by
the number of people focking into
the building. Entering the building,
l was at a loss what to make Of
the matter, as all l could see was
the crowd and large tank in the
center of the room. This tank was
some seventy feet long, thirty feet
wide, and, as | learned afterwards,
about thirty feet deep, having been
constructed at great expense. While
waiting patiently for developments,
| found that the liquid was being low
cred or let out by some means. Soon
a smooth black surface appeared to
view, and as the water continued to
recede | became aware that captive
whale was on exhibition. Surprised
at not having to pay any admission

reason. A frame work had been con
structed on which the animal rested,

Indians Who Were Cannibais.

During the siege of Detroit several
murders and massacres were perpe-
trated, and one English woman, who
lived with her two SONS on the com
mons. was massacred and eaten made
into a soup. Shells were fired at the
Indians from the fort, but the cunning
savages soon learned to run toward
them when they were coming and
blow out the fuse, and so prevent their
exploding. But few of us nowadays
would suppose that the Indians ever
had been cannibals, but we are posi-
lively informed in letters written from
the Detroit post that in several in
stances Pontiac's braves ate their pris-
oners, dished upin various forms. In
a letter dated July 9. 1868, the writer
says:
WAS it not very agreeable to hear
every day of their cutting, carving,
boiling and eating our companions? :
They boiled and ate Sir Robert
Devers, and an Indian had the skin of
Capt. Robertson's arm for a tobacco
nouch. st Louis Magazine.

The Greek Actor.

1t was customary to increase the
stature OF the actors by the use of the
cothurnus or buskin-a kind of high
boot, ornamented in front, and hav-
ing layer of soles some three inches
thick. The cothurnus was painted in
the same color as the robe worn. In
addition to this, masks covering the
whole head and face were used. On
the top, over the forehead, was lofty
frontlet of conical form, which must
have added considerably to the stature
and dignity of the actor; inside the
mask there seems to have been some
continuance for strengthening the
power OF the voice to enable it to fill
the immense space of the auditorium.
Bell shaped vessels of bronze are said
to have been placed in various parts of
the theatre to reflect the sound, and
the actors were subjected to severe
course of training both as to power
and meditation of voice
Many Of the actors were men of DO
sltlon and influence in Attic society,
and more than one had been intrusted
with diplomatic and other missions.
Sometimes the poet himself played in
his own compositions as Aschylus is
SAID to have done. 1t may interest
some OF the craft of the present day to
learn that as much as a talent (nearly
$3.50 has been paid to an actor of note
for two performances. There were
only three performers in speaking
parts, the others were silent; indeed,
they could not have spoken had they
tried, for their masks had the orifice of
the mouth closed, while those worn by
the principal actor and his two subor
dinates were constructed with the
mouth open in the shape of an o.
No women were allowed to act, the
female parts being taken, as in Shake
spearean times with us, by boys or
young men, not only on the stage it
self, but liz the chorus. Sophocles,
when youth, was selected for his
grace and beauty to lead the choral
dance at the festival given in honor of
the victors at Salamis. The dresses
worn on the stage bore no resemblance
to the ordinary Anthenian costume,
but were probably modification of the
festal robes worn in the old Dionysiac
procession, and consisted of flowing
robes OF purple and yellow and other
brilliant hues, crowns or chaplets, and
broad, embroidered girdles. These
robes were SO lengthy as to cover the
feet, and were common to all charac
tiers, male as we'll as female. Cham

The CITY of Berlin.

Frederick the Great worked hard To
beautify this town of his choice. but il
cannot be said that, with all his ef.

years, it is town which strikes a stran.

one of grandeur or even of dignity

terkirche has been destroyed by adj
ditions made about the middle Of the
present century. AS for the cathedral
that is late, domed edi6ce, no larger
than a decent parish church in this
country. This poverty is unique.
Look where you will over Europe
and you will not find a single town of
capital Importance so void of that
browning ornament to a city, a fine
ecclesiastical building. The defect can
not be exaggerated. Such buildings
are the durable record of a city's life;
each weather beaten stone has an in
terest no less human than scientific.
no less romantic than artistic. We
have our St. Pauls and Westminster
Abbey, the Parisians their Notre
Dame, Vienna its st. Stephens, Rome
its st. Peters: but there no such SER
mons in stone to be read in Berlin, no
building to be admired for it's beauty
or revered for its age. Conceive Paris
without Notre Dame. The effect is
nothing short of robbing French liter
allure of Victor Hugol Nor is Berlin
much better off for secular buildings.
None of them save an inconsiderable
fragment of the old Schloss date ear
lier than the Seventeenth century, and
the bulk of the old Schloss is a decay

nate period. The palaces of the late
Emperor William and of the Emperor
Frederick as crown prince were built,

latter thirty, and, though both insig-

Filling q Long Felt Want.

Some day. or other every reporter
will carry around photograph and
when he interviews man the latter S
words will be taken down with an ac-
curacy admitting of no dispute. Then
when the interviewed gentleman
comes around in the morning like a
volcanic eruption to explain that his
language was distorted and all that
sort of thing the reporter can quietly
pull the photograph with one hand
and gun with the other and ask him
what he is going to do about it, When
this scheme can be successfully oper-
ated long felt want will be filed
AS it is at present when a man gets into
trouble because of his remarks being
faithfully printed, he at once swears
that the reporter mixed his words
with an egg beaten and then run them
in. In such a manner the guileless
newspaper worker frequently gains a
reputation for lying which he does not
deserve. Lincoln Journal.
