THE LEGENDARY ADAM AND EVE.
oeens Curious Pnrtiuulars Furnished by
jewish Writer'S

ocana Curious Particulars Furnished by
jewish writers.
To the Scriptura1 account of the Gre
alton and fall OF Adam and Eve the
Jewish writer's OF the Talmud have
added many curious particulars, Ac-
cording to these myth-monge says
fhe st. Louis Republic, Adam, when
first created, was giant OF giants, ;"
~ far as stature goes his head reach
ing into the heavens and his counte-
nance outshining the sun in all its
splendor In one place they tell us
that the very angels stood in awe of
the man which God bad created, and
all creatures FASTENED to worship
him" Then the Lord, in order to give
the angels some idea of his power,
cansed deep sleep to come over Adam,
and, while he was in a comatose condi-
ton, removed portion Of every limb
and bonel The first man thus lost
part OF his colossal stature. yet he re-
manned perfect and complete. Next,
the first "helpmeet for the lord of
creation was created in the person of
Lilith, who forsook Adam to become
the mistress of the air and the moth
err of demons After the departure of
Lilith, Eve was created and married
to Adam In the presence of Jehovah
and the angels, the sun, moon and stars
dancing together to the angelic music
rendered
Then the supreme happiness of the
human pair excited the envy of even
the angels, and the seraph Sammael
tempted them and finally succeeded ia
bringing about their fall from inno-
cence. According to the Koran, all
the angels paid homage to Adam ex-
cept Eblis, who, on account of his re-
fusal so to do, was expelled from Para
disc. To crafty spirit of revenge,
Eblis loitered about the gates of the
garden Matching discord, until at last
he succeeded in separating the first
couple whom God had joined togeth-
err" The record of the wanderings of
the unhappy pair after their expulsion
from the garden is very interesting,
but too long to even give synopsis of
1t here Suffice it to say that Adam
lived as a penitent on the very ground
now occupied by the temple at Mecca,
and Eve in a cave on the side of Mount
Ararat, where, after a lapse of two
hundred years, she was rejoined to
Adam

The Loss d vowels,

40o Asoes OF V0Wotss
Suppose you try the experiment O.
writing few sentences without vow
els, without word spaces, without cap
itals and without Fluctuations JUS
placing the consonants of the words
one after another, the same space be
tween each two letters, until you fill 8
page. That is all that Hebrew writing
for fifteen centuries afforded. Take
such sentence as ''God is love-" II
would be written: ''gdslv." If you
3 had simply these consonants you
would be at a great loss what to make
of them You might put in one set OF
novels and it would read; God does
live" With other vowels it will read;
"aged slave, = and with others good
salve." The Hebrews kept the pronun-
citation and the division into sentences
by reading aloud and practically com
hitting, from generation to genera
ton.
LONDON"S LORD MAYOR.
When Arrayed in State Robes His Glory
Is Like Unto solomon's.
The fountain of municipal honor in
England undoubtedly springs from the
Guildhall, London, which justly claims
to be accounted the most ancient of
our municipal halls. says the London
Telegraph, seeing that the lord mayors
of the last eight centuries are with
justice assumed to have had prototypes
in the Roman project and the Saxon
fortreye or portgrave. For a consider
able number of years the robes of the
lord mayor, the court of aldermen and
tbs common councillors have been set
tied with a precision that none save
the most reckless of innovators
would presume to disturb. The lord
mayor himself has his ''gold" robe for
the occasion of the annual Guildhall
banquet and for the times when he
proceeds in state either to the new
law courts or to the houses of parlia-
ment The aldermen have their scar
let gowns, the sheriffs their distinctive
and very handsome robes and chains
while the common councillors rejoice
in gowns called ''mazarines," it being
generally understood that mazarine
is term for a particular darl-blue
color, although, according to some lexi-
SOS1 oPliCio, Ald1di4hC Olily ACdnS a
drinking vessel and an old way of
dressing fowls.
Then, again, when the sovereign |
comes into the city, the lord mayor is
bound to don a robe of crimson or pur-
pie velvet, trimmed with erinine. At /
The time of his investiture he wears a
massive gold chain, but when he is
IGNORED by reelection, at the expira-
lion of his term of office, he wears
iwo chains The mace of silver-gilt,
by royal crown and the
arms, is carried before the
mayor by the authority of the charter
# Edward Ill.,; while the city possesses
10 less than four swords-one called
Pearl" presented by Queen Bess
Vhen she opened the first royal ex-
hange, and SO called from its being
ichly set with pearls. This sword
recedes the chief magistrate on all
ccasions of rejoicing and festivity.
he sword of state is carried before
he lord mayor as an emblem of his
overeignty within the city proper;
ne ''black" sword is used on fast days
/ Lent and at the death of any mem !
er of the royal family, while the
'urth sword is that placed close to }
lie lord mayors chair at the central
iminal court.

Fish transported long distances in

FOREIGN AGRICULTURAL NOTES.
SWEDISH women often work as farm
laborers. Those who have babies car
ry them on their backs in a leather bag,
as squaw carry their young. This
plan permits the mother to use b. h
hands at her farm work.
In Dutch Guiana the women carry
upon their persons all the family saw
ings in the shape of heavy bracelets,
necklaces and even crowns of
gold and silver. Weighty earrings and
huge rings six or eight inches in di-
ameter dangle from their noses.

BERKELEY.

After having made up its mind that it
saw from 10000 TO 1S.00O people at the
Haight-street grounds last Thursday the
public will gasp at Manager Denman's
statement that but $500 people passed
through the gates. The seating capacity
of the grounds has been greatly overesti-
mated. Fifty-eight hundred people will
occupy the entire seating room of she
grounds.
The receipts of the game are about
$500. OF this some $500 goes for joint
expenses. $500 for The ground alone. The
remaining 5000 will be equally divided be-
tween the two universities, but instead of
affording dividend the management feels
doubtful of clearing expenses. which for
the u. G. team will amount Ia about S3O00
$1,000 going to the coach, Heffelfnger, and
1t is gwen with the feeling that it has been
we'll earned. Berkeley is more than salts
fed with the work her coach has done.
The other expenses training quarters,
hotel bills. football suits, shoes, fencing

SPORTING NOTES.
Amateur HandbaIl Contests-Tug.of-
War and Swimming.

The Reliance Athletic Club OF Oakland
has scored a big success against the
Olympic in football. Now comes the
handball Tournament; and the Reliance
boys say that at this game they will more
than duplicate what they had accomplished
last Saturday at Central Park. Among
those who will enter for the handball
games from the Reliance Club are w.
Berry. NJ. Jellett. J. Jellett. G. Mahoney,
+. Caire. C. Smith. j. Greeley, j. Smith.
c. Bates. J. A. Young, II. Knoll, S. Will
son. A. Pope. j. Wilson. j. Roberts and c.
o. Musser. There is no doubt that some
of the athletes, who are first-class PLAYERS,
W Ill make matters look decidedly inter-
esting for their opponents in the final
games. The trouble with the Olympic
players is that they have no ambition and
imagine that because they belong to the
Olympic CLUB they should defeat every
thing that comes before them.
This idea has been knocked out of the
Olympic football players heads in good
shape, and the lesson should prove Of
value to the handball players, otherwise
thCy will go down just as speedily before
the Reliance team. Practice makes per-
feet, and without plenty of it the
Olympians will not excel in anything ex-
ceptiDg laZiness.

of which were hippoGromes of the worst
Kind. In fact, those small side issue affairs
have killed what promised to be great
feature of sport. The sporting people,
however, have taken the measure of the
anchor pullers, and it is good wager that
in future the attendance at flake" tug-of-
war pulling matches will not be as large
as corpora's guard. 1t Is said that a
sideshow has been arranged for this even
ing to give some careless gamblers or spec
ulators chance to part with some money
One of the features that will be intro
duced at the Olympic swimming tourna-
ment will be an exhibition of life-saving
bv some of the experienced swimmers.
This feature should prove very interesting
to the members. as majority Of people
who can swim have not the slightest ida a
how to handle drowning person withou t
danger CT their own lives.
