Especial Correspondence-I
BosToN, March 1S.-There has always
been sonewhatof question as 10 whether
the so called gypSies Of America are true
Romantics or not, and the recent death at
Providence of Prince Williams" will no
doubt start the discussion afresh, for it is
averred on very good authority that he
was Just a plain Englishman and no Rom
any st all.
It was in the times of the Tudors that
the gypsies lis the word a corruption of
Egyptianss) crossed over from the CONT
nent TO the British isles, because of rigid
DEGREES OF expulsion promulgated in
Spain, Germany and France They met
a rather cold welcome, but were neverthe-
less allowed to stay on the earth and prac
tice their peculiar methods of winning a
livelihood, TO the great disgust Of the Eng
lish people, as is clearly shown from the
epithets applied TO the nomads by the
writer's of those early days One old rec
ord says Of them that they wandered uppe
and downe and met once year at place
appointed, sometimes at the Peaks hole,
at Derhyshire, and az other whites by Ret
brook, at BIackheath." Another English
writer spoke Of them as "vagabonds, mas
terless men, ydle, yagraunte, 1oiterynge,
yIl disposed persons, going aboute usynge
subtitle and unlawful games or plate, "
but in Scotland they were after a time re-
ceiyed as decent and law abiding colonists
and for awhile were treated with consid-
Grafton. In few years, however, when
their true character became known, an
act was passed for the suppression OF
Egyptians, bards, Ministries and vaga-
bond scholars.
Finally Johnnie Faw, the s. Earl Of Little
Egypt, ," ran away with the daughter OF a
countess, and hundreds OF gypsies were
wiped out IN the fight that followed, and
the woman was i'm prisoned for life at May
boIe, Ayrshire, in q tower built for that
purpose. Yet notwithstanding this and
other sIaughters OF gypsies there are plenty
OF them IN the United Kingdom yet
Instances Of the kidnapping Of women by
gypsies in America are not wanting, and
one such was reported in Missouri last
year. Early in the eighties, when the
drama Of The ROmauy Rye was having
its successful run IN New York, a special
attraction lay in the fact that the part OF
the gypsy princess was played by Marie
Lowell. the daughter OF the chief of a band
that used 70 rove over New Jersey. Two
years ago. when this GIrl, who was really
quite pretty, was well grown, she eIOped
or WIS abducted from the g;ypsy's camp,
and Chief Lowell rai-ed 4 great TO do about
it. " neither she was ever found by the
sOrrOving Romantics that made Up the
camp l never heard, bu5 for months after
her disappearance old man Lowell provided
about the country with gun looking far

Beef Eating In Japan.

A Japanese contributor in The Popular Science Monthly says: When I was a young boy, the custom of eating beef be- gan to spread As blood was regarded as unclean, and also as Japan had been q strong agricultural country, there was deep rooted disinclination to eat beef. In this of course, one has also to recognize the influence of the vegetarian principle of Buddhism, but to anybody who had ever tasted beef it was so delicious that ho could hardly control his natural appetite by his religious scruple. My father was one of those who knew its taste, and so now and then we used to treat ourselves to beef. But where did we eat itf We did not eat it inside of the house. We cooked it and ate it in the open air, and in cooking and in eating we did not use the ordinary uten- sils, but used the special ones kept for the purpose. Why all these things9 Because beef was unclean, and we did not like to spread its uncleanliness into our house wherein the gods shelf is kept, and into our ordinary utensils, which might be used in making offerings to tho gods. The day when we ate beef my father did not offer lights to the gods nor say evening prayers to them, as he did usually, for ho knew he was uDclean and could not ap- proach the gods.

Advice Concerning Its Climate From 0

Advice Concerning Its Climate From O
 rhysician Who Lives There.
 A Los Angeles physician thinks 1t is high time for his brethren in the east to understand that to send consumptives as a last resort to southern California is to inspire them with false hope and to in flict an injury on their frienGs.
 Two have but few selected localities where the consumptivo may expect to de- rive benefit, " ho says, "and then only when he comes here in the early stages of the disease These localities are not in our cities, where too many physicians send these unfortunatcs. Experience has taught us that such desirable places arc rather isolated and arc either in tho noun tains, on the desert or along the scacoast. The best places are along tho southern ex- posture of tho two foothills of the noun tain ranges of Kern, San Bernardino and Los Angeles counties, off tho coast of San Diego and Santa Barbara counties and in Indio valley on tho Colorado desert.
 "Onco located, tho patient should re- main, not 0 few weeks or months or a year, but he should make his homo the remainder of his life at such place suita- ble to his particular case and not go to tho city as soon as he feels an improvement in his condition as is invariably tho case, with the result only of being obliged to return very soon all the worse for making tho change"
 He recommends that the cottage or tent to be used by tho invalid should be set on tho southern slope of hill, so as to catch the rays of tho sun during the entire day.
 "In this climatc,' he explains, there is an unpleasant, ungrateful chilly cool ness in the shade even during the warm summer days which is as aperceptible un- der the shade of palm tree as on tho , shaded side of house or hillside. Why this coolness when the thermometer in the sun registers 80 degrees to 100 degrees F, 1 must leayo each one to account for for himself Even the robust, healthy indi- vidual in summer evenings always goes provided against this coolness with an overcoat. An overcoat is very essential garment in this climate the year round This coolness of atmosphere, which exists at all times in the shade and is very pro- nounced at nightfall, is one of the draw backs of this climate as health resort. "
 He concludes by saying that day after day he is consulted by victims of the dis case, "only to advise them to return to their homes and friends whilc they yet have tho strength to withstand the return journey and receive tho kind care from those who are near and dear to them. ''- New York Post.

 How can wo have poets if we stone them? But may6c we do not care to have poets. That alters tho case. In other days 1t mattcred littlo what Bryant or Long fellow or Holmes wrote, we welcomed it, and our journals gave space for generous appreciation of it.

 It is not that love aliens less or com patriots more that wincc and wonder at this state of things. We do not havo to disparago tho good authors who dwell in foreign lands in order to appreciate thoso who live next block to us. But why all this insistent vehement preference for tho aliens?

 If it were really true; if critics and pub fishers did not know that it is not truo that American genius is far below Eu- ropean genius and that foreign prose and poetry are incomparably better than what we make at home, thero would be solid ground for tho present state of things, but we all know better. America is not so far behind in literary genius and achieve mcnt. Shc is not behind at all save in the spirit of independence and self appre- citation. We grovel-really strange freak this in people absolute masters of the world-at tho feet of every clever alien who sends us his book. It is spectacle our literary reviews dotted with portraits of famous young Englishmen scarcely known in our own country who have come over to lecture to us upon how to writo novels or poetry or history. It is pretty good hint that an American is dead or at least stricken with paralysis or mayhap the copyright has expired on his books, or he has cxpatriated himself, when you sec his portrait displayed and there are fiaring advertisements of his works in the journals of his country y.-Maurice Thomp- son in Independent.

Judges of Tcrrapin.

1T doubt if there are hundred first class judges of terrapin in the United States" remarked a well known dealer in game and fish. "I know this because tho clubs, restaurants and hotels use vast quantities of Texas, Florida and other common terrapin and servo them as bona flde diamond backs. The finest diamond backs range in price from $40 to $10O dozen, and one terrapin, when properly cooked, will make about three plates, so that the cost of dish of stewed terrapin must necessarily range from $1 to $3.60, and whatever is charged above these fig ures represents the profit Many a man who smaoks his lips over the terrapin he gets in restaurant doesn't know the diff ference between that and a mud turtle, which latter, dare say, he often gets.

STRANGE FEUDAL SERVICE.
By Its Performance Valuable Land Has
 Been Hela Seven Centuries.

By Its Performance Valuable Land Has
 Been Hela Seven Centuries.
 A curious ancient ceremonial or quit rent service annually performed by tho City of London corporation as tenants of certain crown lands situated near Bridge worth, in Shropshire, takes place at tho royal court of justice in the office of tho queen S remembrancer. It was formerly done in open court before the cursitor baron of the exchequer, whose office be- came extinct in 1856. The land in ques- tion, still officially described as "a piece of waste ground called The Moors, " is now small farm at Eardington, about two miles from Bridgeworth.
 Tho feudal service by which it has been held during seven centuries at loast is the cutting asunder two fagots of wood, one with hatchet, the other with a billhook. It has been conjectured that upon some | occasion when one of the old kings, Nor man or Plantagenet, was hunting in the ? neighborhood he was saved from imminent danger occasioned by tho fierce onslaught of an infuriated bear by the timely arrival and assistance of sturdy yeoman who was cutting fagots. The king may have rewarded the the man with perpetual grant of the Mora, the moor or waste land upon condition of his coming yearly to the royal court and presenting couple of fagots cut open in the presence of the kings official representative.
 The earliest recorded notice of this ten ure occurs in roll of sergeanties of 13 John, 1911. The property afterward passed to the city corporation of London. The ceremony on Oct. 22 this year was per formed by the city solicitor, who was ac- companied by the secondary of the city of London and several other officers of the corporation. Proclamation was first made calling upon the tenants and occupiers of the land to come forth and do their sery- ico Another act of a similar character was immediately afterward performed by the city solicitor for plot of ground in the parish of St. Clement Danes in tho Strand, anciently occupied by forge that of counting six horseshoes and 61 hobnails Illustrated News.
