Superstitious Peoples Beliefs Concern

1t was formerly held among certain
devout Catholics that the commotion
of the sea was owing to the serpents
which st. Patrick had imprisoned in a
box when he cast them out of ireland.
The Arab sailors believed that tho
high seas of tine coast of Abyssinia
were enchanted, and whenever they
found themselves among them they
recited verses which wee supposed to
subdue them. An old traveller tells
me that in u voyage from Messina TO
Malta he saw the captain. an expert
enced sailor, standing at the bow NUT
tering and pointing with his finger.
On being asked what he was doing he
replied that he was breaking the force
OF a fatal wave by making the sign of
the cross and saying prayers for such
an occasion. The Persians believe
that the waves Of the Persian Gulf are
caused by air entering caves which
have subterranean outlets under the
ocean. But one of the most curious
beliefs of all-one closely akin to GER

Origin OF . Game,

A letter has just been discovered
among tho archives of the British Mu-
scum dated as far back as the year
1850 and which gives the origin OF
the game OF billiards as now played.
The game, it appears. was invented in
1869 by pawnbroker by the name of
William Kew. in London, who was in
the habit Of taking down every night
the three balls which hung before his
shop. and to push them about with
his wooden yard measure on his
counter. Hence the name billiards,
which Is corruption OF Bills yard.

that the company enjoys all the

streets, lights, water, police and
fire protection on the part of the

others who do business within the

it not about time that action was

Congress the necessity for altering

those which were intended to be
remedied by it's enactment. Tax
