The Parsees win not burn or bury
their dead, because they consider dead

themselves to defile any of tho elements.
They therefore expose their corpees to

mourning among the Parsees) following
the bier to the Tower of Silence. At the
entrance they look their last ON the dead,

The inhabitants Of Guagno chose to
ignore this order, and 90 Of them, all

gendarmes-not armed--had been placed

SHERIFF DUFFY's DENIAL.

Sheriff Duffy, OF Westminster County,
answers with a general denial the
charges preferred against him before the
Governor as to his failure to promptly
suppress the Little Monte Carlo pool
selling resort. He accompanies his de-
NAL with the remarkable assertion that
he did not know anything about the IL
legal practices going on ut the place men,
toned, until after the charges had been
preferred. Furthermore, he says: Il
have never 'hesitated or refused TO arrest
any OF the men engaged in the alleged
poolselling referred to in the complaint
when warrants were placed In my hands
for execution"
In this last declaration the Sh erln
practically says that he has never re-
fused to move when fire was built i'm
der him. In his assertion that he knew
nothing of the Little Monte Carlo"
gambling until he read OF II in he
papers. he makes himself out to be far
binder than the Justice In whose inter
est he Is supposed to hold etiice. There
was little enough concealmsnt about the
poolselling at the late Westchester re-
sort. Men went there daily by the hun
openly taken. II Sheriff Duffy didn't
know all about II he was lonesome in
his ignorance and strikingly barren q
the perceptive faculties which are very
important to an official OF his ler.
Sheriff Dufy's plea Is very weak And
as II to render It stili more insufficient.
he closes 1t with this fling at the Society
| for the Enforcement of the Criminal
Law, in whose name the charges are
preferred IL further allege that I am
Informed and believe that the Society
referred to made the complaint in bao
faith, and for motives which should not
receive the Executive sanction, and
most respectfully call Your Excellency's
attention to this Society and Its methods
as deserving an investigation"
After this, 1t IL true enough that Duffy
need say no more.

A SIDE LIGHT.

In the Supreme Court, before Justice
Barrett, yesterday the curtain that
screens the richest family in the country
from vulgar observation was drawn aside
for few moments, and the general pub
lie was given a glimpse at the inner life
OF the descendants OF the multi-million-
aires.
The scene disclosed to view has "A
touch of the pathetic in it. On the
question OF the proper allowance for the
support OF two children of Mr. Roose-
welt. who had married one of the As.ors.
evidence was taken. One of the children.
a boy. is at school: he Is 'somewhat
backward" and accordingly needs a pri-
vate tutor; the other, girl, is "in deli
cate health" has had several operations
performed" and there has been a large
expense for nurses"
The millions OF rosy-cheeked bare
footed children out in the fields and
farms of this country evidently have no
need 70 envy the children OF the Astors.
