Music. Welsh and BASQUE.

music, welsh anu oasquos
Having two American friends stop
ping with us, we brought nice Welsh
girl from Dolgelly one evening to sing
to them the national songs. Miss Madge
Roberts, sweet, pretty young lady and
excellent singer, went over an immense
repertory of Welsh music, and Miss S.,
who is very scientific musician, made
many remarks on the peculiarities of
the Welsh scale, etc. Suddenly she ex-
claimed: "I cannot think what music
it is that know that these Welsh tunes
50 much resemble. Stay, it is Basquer'
and she proceeded to hum three or four
typical Basque songs. Miss Roberts
and all of us instantly recognized the
similarity Of these with the Welsh, es-
pecially the oldest Welsh, songs which
she had been singing.
| Miss 8. was very much surprised when
I told her that Professor Boyd Dawkins
believed in the original identity of the
Basque and pre-Celtic Welsh, theory
of which she was quite ignorant, SO that
her testimony to the similarity OF the
national music was entirely spontaneous.

Of no value, but there does appear to me
to be In the old Welsh music, as in q
great deal of the Welsh character, dis.

phasis on time as in a soldiers march

What Ia Electricitye

II the question is now asked, ''Whst
Is electricity we may reply advanta-
geously, in the words Of Jokai: A thing OF
which we know little more than moth
ing aud little less than something. A
little more than nothing, for we know
that it is OF the nature of light aud heat,
extending itself like them in waves OF
motion. A little less than something,
for of the essence Of electricity itself.
whether static or dynsmic, we are still
absolutely in the dark. There has been
no want Of other theories, but the fun
damental tendency Of the age is to re-
duce all phenomena and forces to the
fewest possible primaries, and it is not
improbable that this will be facilitated
by the wave theory Of the SO called
ether.
The problem of gravitation, too, which
was so long regarded as force acting
from q distance, is now equally attrib.
uted to the agency of a medium. In his
efforts to demonstrate the oneness Of all
natural forces, the physicist isnot likely
to be led astray, even although the cog
milton of force presents one of those
world problems, the solution of which
must forever escape us; aye, although,
as the final result of the most exact in.
vestigation, it should forever be denied
to him even to assert decisively, ''It Is
only force, and the ether is its me-
dunn of transmission. Exchange.

He Wanted to Get In.

Jimmy Murphy was newspaper Of
fee boy, and Jimmy was terror. He
did nothing in particular save smcke
cigarettes and beg for theater tickets,
and was known to all the reporters as
"Murph.n One night he wanted to go
to a certain show very badly, but had
not been successful in begging or steal
ing a ticket from the dramatic editor.
He went up to the theater about 8
o'clock and stood around the gallery en-
trance in the hope that he could in some
way gain admittance. The manager Of
the theater came along in little while,
and noticing him standing there, said,
"Hello, Murphl" and went into the
house.
Five minutes later "Murph" walked
up to the doorkeeper at the main en-
trance and said, "Say, is de manager
in?'
"What do you want to know for?"
asked the guardian Of the portal.
"Wel, ! wanter see him, seey'

stopped the Miracles.

The tomb of Saint Etienne de Muret,
canonized in 1888, in the Abbey OF
Grandmond. was so great an offender
on account of the number Of miracles
that the religious were completely worn
out by the rush of votaries. The prior
devised, however, very simple but ef-
fective remedy for this grievance. Be-
taking himself to the tomb. he spake rs
follows: Servant of God, you preached
to us the delights of solitude and yet
you assemble in our retreat as many
people as If it were a market or fair.
We are sufficiently persuaded of your
sanctity not to be curious about your
miracles. If, then, you will not leave
off working them, we protest and declare
on high, in virtue of the obedience we
have promised you, that we will un-
earth your bones and throw them into
the river" AS might be expected, the
threat was sufficient, and Saint Etienne
de Muret did no more miracles.-All the
