which favored intellectual supremacy.
The empire did not encourage literature.

RoME, May 2S.-A well-known American
who has returned from a long trip in Sici-
" reports that the people there have been
IN TO manner excited over the New
Orleans lynching. He says most Of the
SlcilIans seemed to know nothing about it
and those who had read the accounts pub
iished in the newspapers seemed TO care
nothing aboutit. The trade of Sicily with
the United States is probably larger than
that with aLy other nation. Ihree fOurths

ner sulphur 90 90 the Uaited States. II Is
natural, therefore, that Sicilians should be
tavorably inclined to Americans.
THE PEOPLE INDIFFERENT.
Here in Rome the people at large have
never manifested much interest IN the
New Orleans incident. 1t would long ago
have passed into history were il not that
one or two papers occasionally refer to It,
and always IN terms of contempt for and
yiIificatiOn of Americans. The Neapolitau
papers bewail in lamenting terms the
"frightful" exodus of Italians from South
ern Italy, and their mad haste TO leave
their native land for the land of assas-
sins" During the week ending May 18th,

THE MAy-DAY SCARE
The scare resulting from the 1st of May
difficulties has nearly subsidized. Guards Of
soldiers, however, have been kept at the
banks, prisons, public institutions, and
especially IN and around the various pow
der-magazin"s outside the city.
The municipality has sent this month
hundreds of unemployed workmeu from
other places TO their homes, but rumOr
saws many Of them find their way back
soon. and that II is out Of this number
that the Anarchists are recruited. Very
few native Romans, it is believed, have
embraced Socialstic principles.

FALSE TesTt, IN TIE GUMS.
A Moscow Dentist Accredited with n
Valuable Discovery.

A dentist of Moscow is reported TO have
discovered method TO supply the human
mouth with false teeth which will grow
into the gums as firmly as natural ones.
says the Chicago Times. DR.. Znamensky
has performed several successful opera
tions on dogs ss well as human beings.
The teeth are made Of gutta pereha, por-
celain. or metal. Holes are made at the
root Of the false tooth and also upwardinto
the jaw. The tooth is then placed into the
cavity.
In short time soft grapulated growth
finds its way from the patients jaw into
the holes In the tooth; this growth gradu-
ally hardens and holds the tooth in posi-
ton.
