nth an Indian, who made signs for q
1x1de. He was allowed to get into the

he was intoxicated
The lecturer, who believed in being

ger. He dwelt upon the disgrace and
death which follow the use Of liquors..
and wound up by entreating him to for1
sake his cups.
The Indian did not understand word,
of the exhortation, but Judging the leo,
'tnrer by himself. Thought from his
pleading eyes and earnest manner mat
he wanted a drink. Accordingly he
drew large black bottle from under
his blanket and offered ID to the wh4tu
man.
The1ecturer was elated. He had made
n convert, he thought. He took the bot
de and dashed It to the ground, where
1t flew into a thousand pieces.
The Indian could mob have beeA
angrier if his scalp had been threat

tremendous war whoop, seized the
white man by the arms, dragged him tc
tho ground. beat him In the face, and
was reaching for his knife, when the
lecturer managed to break away and
ran at his best speed for the next town,

according to his own version Of The

ABE. THE BuNTER.

A Remarkable Old Black Man Who IL
Over Century Cid.
Probably the oldest man in Western
Massachusetts, says tho st. Louis Globe
Democrat, is Abe Parsons, 81 negro lis-
ing in this place. He is one hundred
and one years old, and has, had ro-
mantle and adventurous career Ie
was born slave in South Carolina, and
ran away from his master in Andrew
Jackson's time and made his way to the
Northern States through swamps and
forests, his only guide being the north
star. He reached New York STATE,
where he again became slave to-
New York man. Abe has such pecul-
iarly-shaped head that doctors and mcd-
ical colleges are constantly asking for
his body when he shall die. On the top
OF his skull is a bunch about the size of
an egg, which seems to be solid boL>c
He is known as ABE, the Bunter.r
Several years ago, when q BLOCK Of
buildings in this town was all afia1ne,
Abe, with q bunt of his head, burst in
the heavy door. He also has great
reputation for killing horses and cows
One bnnt with his head is as effective
as q blow from an axe He has killed
probably twenty old horses in this
manner. He worked during all last
season at planting, haying md harvest
ing, and can do 9 iday's work that many
g younger man would not find easier.

DUTCH DIAMONDS.
The Influence Upan the Industry OF Y Ea~
ducti&7n in Prices.

The Influence Upen the Industry OF u Exas
ductit5n in Prices.
Last year was very serious one for
the Dutch diamond industry, says tbs
London Times, which was nearly Par
alyzed by the action of the he Beers
Company, of Kimberley, in reducing shs
production of the raw diamond from
four million to two million carats per
annu,n i'll order to keep up prices. The
price Of raw diamonds rose more tha1x
one hundred per cent. at the mines and
it proved impossible to obtain q proper
tionate advance for the cut article
This state Of things, says the British
Consul at Amsterdam in his last report.
in the cutting industry in Amsterdam,
created the greatest distress among the
diamond workers, who as 8 class have
the reputation of being very thriftless
For several months at the close of the
year orders for cut diamonds were alto
gether wanting, and not .only were a
great number of families reduced to alb
solute restitution, but most Of the new
cutting mills which have been erected
OF late. were closed and will probably
have to be devoted to other purposes.
Since the close Of the year the position
OF the diamond works rather improved
The price OF cut diamonds has risen so
far as to give sc.ne margin for the cost
OF cutting, etc, but the demand is by
no means sufficient to keep the mills
and diamond worlsera OF the city cua~
ployed. A good deal of cutting is now
done there for London account direct.

BRAZILIAN PEBBLE.

1t Makes No Better Lens Than Good
Quality of Glass.
What is called Brazilian pebble is
often nothing but q fine quality of
glass, says the st. Louis Globe Demo
GRAFT. The real Brazilian pebble is q
kind of rock crystal, found in many
parts of the world, but in great pro-
fusion in Brazil, and hence the name.
There is a pot superstition that the
Brazilian pebble glasses preserve the
sight, but no solid foundation for it
exists. Fine glass is every whit as good
and costs far less On account Of the
labor and care required to grind the
crystal to the proper shape.
The only real advantage the crystal
lenses have over those of glass is in the
hardness of the material, which rem
ders them much less liable to become
scratched and SO dimmed, but other
wise the glass is Els good. There are
several tests by which to distinguish
the genuine pebble from the glass imi-
tatien, but the most easily applied is
that of touch. The real pebble will
feel far colder to the finger Or tongue
than the glass, SO much so that after
touching glass lens and then one OF
crystal any one will be able to detect
the difference.

HEBREWS IN AN ERICA.
Results Ammo unced Of 5 Special lnqairy
by the Census Bureau.

Results Ammo unced Of Special Inqairy
by the Census Bureau.
The division OF vital statistics 81 the
Census Office has prepared bulletin,
says the Washington Star, containing
summary Of the results OF special
inquiry concerning the Jews IN this
country
A special schedule was prepared call
condition, place of birth, occupation,
etc, of each person in the family re-
ported who was living on the slst OF
December, 1889, and of certain details
concerning births, marriages and
deaths occurring in the family for the
five years ended on that date
These schedules were distributed to
heads Of Jewish families in all parts Of
the United States, the necessary names
and addresses being obtained from
rabbis Of congregations and officers OF
different societies.
No effort was made to obtain con-
plete returns from all the Jews in the
country, nor to develop any facts con
corning religious or commercial ques-
tions, but merely to obtain data from 3
sufficient number OF families who have
been in the United States five or more
years to afford some reliable deductions
concerning the effect Of residence
under the conditions of life in this couu-
try as contrasted with those elsewhere.
The inquiry resulted in the return OF
1O,61s completed family schedules, en-
bracing CO., $50 living persons on the slst
day OF December, 1889, and in these
Families there had been 2, I4S marriages,
e,0ss births and 2,o62 deaths during the
FIVE years ending chat date.
The social condition of the families IL
indicated to some extent by the number
of servants kept by them, and. HIS about
two thirds arc reported as keeping one
or more servants, the families reported
NAV be said to be in easy csrcu;a~
stances.
The average number of persons 81
each family On December 81, 1889. Taa
:,.71, and the average annual number
for the five years covered by these sts.s"
istics was so. The average aunuxS
number of marriages per 600 OF tptal
population was much lower than the
general rate, being but "a, as against
is TO % Ger 900 in the Eastern States;
ard the average age al marriage IL
greater than among the general popa-
lation. The low marriage rate and the
increased average age at marriage are
the principal reasons for the low birth
rate.
The deaths reported for the fge years
give an average annual death rats Of
I'll per 1000 Of population, being about
half of the average rate for the general
population.
The expectation Of life at the age Of
10 years, based upon the death rate for
the year 1889, is Gill and 5000 years
for males and females, respectively, rs
against 1889 and 4s.O5 as calculated by
life insurance companies for the general
population of this country.
Contrasting the birth and death rates
for those of native born and foreign
born parents indicates that the birth
rate is decreasing and the death rate
increasing with more prolonged resi-
dence in this country, but the general
results Indicate that the Jews here re-
tain many Of the peculiarities which
have been noted among them in Eu
rope.
