A LITERARY swlNDLER.

Appointed Professor of Arabic without
Even Knowing the Alphabet.
One of the cleverest literary swim
dlers who ever lived, says the Detroit,
Free Press, was Maltese named Vella,
who pretended to have an intimate ac-
quaintance with Arabic, although he
did not know a word of thai language,
and was not even familiar with the al
phabet. lie arrived in Sicily about the
end of the last century, at time when
the barons of that country, in order to
settle dispute about their feudab
right, were ANXIOUS TO gam certain IN
formation about the kingdom in the
days of the Saracens.
Vella contrived to- be appointed
translator of certain Arabic manu-
scripts, and he actually produced an
alleged translation and played his part
with such address that he obtained
honors, dignity and the profcssorshipof
Arabic IN the University of Palermo.
The Sicilian literati at last became
suspicious and endeavored to expose
the inpostor, but he was defended by
some Of the most eminent men of the
island, and it was with the greates4
difficulty that an investigation was Sc
cured. Vella was at last, however,
convicted and sentenced to fifteen
years imprisonment.

Institution for the Training of Jewisi,
Youth at Hanover.


Youth at Hanover.
A novelty in practical philanthropy
is described by w. C. Fox, formerly
consul to Brunswick, Germany, who
has just returned to Washington.
During my visit to Hanover" said
Mr.. Fox in the course of a recent eonver-
sation with a st. Louis sGlobe-DemocIat
correspondent, Il examined an instr
tuition for the training of Jewish,
youth. The institution is something
entirely new. 1t has been established
by Alexander Moritz Simon. Mr..
Simon is the American vice consul at
Hanover, where he is also prominent
banker. Those who have knowledge
Of the situation in Russia and Germany
to-day fully understand that one OF the
chief causes OF the anti-Semitic move
ments in those countries is that the
Jews are solely dealers and traders.
This is because children naturally ac-
quire taste for and follow the occu-
patton of their parents and other rela-
tives
-uh. oiAuOH tOiu ulVS NOHblhuCu Ahi.
Fox, that in his visits to the United
States in 1882 and 1890, he remarked
the distressing conditions of the jew
ish immigrants, arising mainly from
the fact that they were unable to per-
form such work as they could obtain
from labor. Knowing no mechanical
trade, they were of necessity driven to
peddling. Mr.. Simon, some time ago,
became convinced that if many Of the
Jewish youth in Russia and Eastern
Persia were properly taught trades, it
would be the best answer to the chief
argument of the anti-Semitic agitators.
Actuated by this belief, he founded
this institution. He has purchased
some seventy acres Of land near the
city of Hanover. The necessary build
ings have been erected so that sixty
boys can be accommodated. The prime
object is to teach agriculture, garden.
ing and fruit culture in all THEN
branches. Carpentering. loclSsmithing
shoemaking, baking and other trades
will be taught. The movement ant
the institution have already received
the hearty Endorsement and assistance
of prominent Israelites in Europe
There is every evidence that the ex
pertinent will prove successful and pio

Hunters who so forth to shoot PAM

orat least of worthy and thrilling es-
cape, to relate. But the author of
'yrhirtv Years of Shil5arn describes the
only chance he ever had of making an
appearance as a slayer of the large
feline creatures as resulting in crush

lows:
A panther was marked down for me-

Reform in TeIegraphy.
At competitive trial of skill be-

ly called tournament, which took
place recently, one of the most inter-
esting features was q test OF the ca
pacity of a receiving machine tech
nically known as the "Audison"-a

though perfectly distinct to him, is
wholly inaudible to anyone else. 1t is

azine, that the use of q receiving in

eral in the telegraph service.
Under the present condition Of af-
fairs it is almost literally true that he

egraphic stations in hotels, railroad
depots and other equally public places
are equipped with noisy sounders,
enabling every message that goes over
the wire, to or from that or any other
station, to be read by any person with
in hearing who is able to do so. There
is not the slightest attempt to pre-
serve the secrecy of communication,
which ought to be one of the all-im-
portant requirements of the service.
There are thousands of ex-operators
and other persons in the community
who can read these signals as easily as
they could read bulletin board, and
there is obviously nothing whatever to
prevent any one of them from obtain
ing information OF other persons busi-
ness or personal matters in this way
and using it to their own advantage.
1t is state of affairs which calls loud
ly for immediate reform.
