ORIENTAL STREET SCENES.
The Dogs, the Donkeys, and the
Vendors of All Sorts of Wares.

st. Nicholas.
Everybody has heard about the dogs
and donkeys of Oriental cities, how the
dogs roam about without owners, and
how the donkeys bear patiently their
many burdens. and get but scant thanks
in return. But all Eastern streets
abound in novel aud fascinating sights
bright gowns, tiny shops, yelled
women wearing wooden sandals,
gaunt camels swaying along with rude
bells tinkling. From the first the en-
ergetic peddlerS are conspicuous.
If the traveller approaches the Levant
by way of ConstantinopIe, he plunges
at once into their favorite hauntS. The
first night in this great, historic city
will not be forgotten. for the bowling of
the hungry street dogs is hardly silenced
before the coming of daylight brings
out multitude of these noisy vendors,
and then sleep is out of the question.
One would think they were trying to
arouse the people in the next street to
have them all ready for making pur-
chaseS. Some are shouting i'll Turkish
and some in Greek, advertising the eX-
cellence of the good things that
they have in the high baskets on their
backs or on diminutive mouse-colOred
donkeys. We look down from the hotel
window and watch them as they pass
along or stop for bargaining. There
are loads of tempting white grapes,
rosy peaches and profusion of fresh
vegetables evidently just in from the
gardens along the Bosphorus, or those
bordering the Sweet Waters beyond the
Golden Horn.
In all these towns along the Asia
Minor coast these scenes are repeated.
with perhaps a trifle less noise. At
Smyrna, in early autumn, the nina
swarms with sellers of the luscious
sugarmelons, and little earlier all the
ports of the Greek Archipelago echo
with "Sweet, fresh figs!'

DIVORCED THIRTY-FIVE.
Japan Offers Facilities That Thi
Country Never Dreamed OF.

OECdluSo ols
| Baltimore American.
A tourist who has just returned from
the East says that the day he left Yoko-
hama the native paper in that city NEIL
/ toned the case of man, aged forty this
year, living in the province of Bizen,
who has married and divorced thirty
five wives and is now married to the
thiTty-siXth.
He was first married at eighteen, and
the reason assigned for this eXtraordin-
ary example of Inconsistency is that he
has younger sister of extremely jeal-
GUS and rancorous dis position, who,
| from the moment that bride enters
the house, Institutes system of per-
secution which soon drives the un-
| happy woman to ask her husband
for divorce. The husband is help
| less to restrain the vagaries of his sister,
and cannot turn her out, SO the wretched
business goes OH year after year. The
native chr0nicler adds a circumstance
which is improbable, even in the East.
He says that in two cases the brides, ar
| irving at the door of their future home,
changed color, and, declaring that they
recognized the house as one where they
had already passed some months of most
miserable wedlOck, fed without further
| parley.
| Commenting upon this story, the ia
pan Mail says that, whether authentic
or not, it illustrates the difference be-
tween japanese and English fashions in
respect to marriage. Among the lower
order in Japan sentiment is seldom al
lowed to play an influential part in the
arrangements preliminary to matri-
mony. The higher the social scale
the more attention is paid to
the fancies of the man, and of
late those of the women also are begin
ming to be regarded. Bnt the principle
underlying the whole marital relation
in Japan seems to be that the affection
which really survives the passage of
years and makes married life happy is
not the love which precedes union, but
the respect, esteem, and sense of mutual
helpfulness that grows up after it. In
short, marriage in Japan is a prelimi-
nary experiment, whereas in the West 1t
is final cont act.

A Fatal Accident Occurs on the
Kentucky Track,

LEXINGTON, KY, May s.-A warm
and pleasant afternoon brought an un-
usually large number of people out for
the tenth days racing of the Kentucky
association. The racing was good and
betting lively. The Saloonkeepers'
Handicap sweepstake and the Pepper
stake were the principal events of the
day, the former being won by G. w.
Hancock's bay horse Trust, and the
tatter by NJ. e. Richardson's bay colt
Faraday. The afternoons pleasure was
sadly marred by an unfortunate accident,
which will probably cost j. L. McFadden
his life. His duty was to put up the
places of each horse after the race. In
attempting to cross the track at the
judges stand after the second race, he
was knocked down and kicked in the
head by ''The KAISER" ridden by Jockey
Allen, who was being exercised for the
third race. The unfortunate young nah
was borne from the track in an uncon-
scious condition, and Drs. Young and
Robinson summoned. His skull was
severely fractured, and his life is de-

Reports received yesterday from near

rain is needed for all kinds of crops.
The warm winds that have swept over
the fields for the past ten days have
dried out the upper crust of soil in
which the wheat is now taking root, and
moisture must be had very shortly.
There is no lack of dampness further
down in the soil, and once the
wheat is we'll rooted there will be
no ground for further apprehension.
And the rain is coming. The GLOBE

Minnesota last night that well
come showers were falling merrily.
