GYPSlES PASSING AWAY.
Ronnany RycS Gradually Disappear
ing from Civilization.

The gradual disappearance and ex-
tinction oil that picturesque vagabond,
the genuine. Simon-pure gypsy. has
caused much comment. but the reason
for the dying out of the old race is
somewhat difficult To find. There are
probably more rowing. wandering yag-
abonds in the world to-day than ever
before, but a real Bomany is seldom
found. even in England. where ne for
mcrly tlouriShcd. In this country real
gypSieS were never numerous. ana are
to-day less "a than ver before. They
are occasionally mel with. but the bands
are either very small or are composed
of hO~rSe-trading scamps and fortune
telling "fakirS." who have not 4 drop Of
Romany blood in their veins.
In the old days the gypsy impressed
himself and his personality on the lit
erature and the art OF the countries in
which he roamed. 1t was a poor hovel
that did not Introduce a gypsy fortune
teller. and Il poor play that did not have,
ut least. one child stolen by the gypSies.
while the artists fairly rcveled in
studies and sketches of gypsy maldena.
But the gypsies of to-day do not in
dulge in any child-Stealing proclivities,
although they occasionally make a
bluff" at telling fortunes. As for the
children. they usually have enough Of
their own not to bother their heads and
risk their liberty BY stealing those of
other people.
4 band of gypSies which appeared
in the province of Quebec the other day
actually tried To sell their own children.
they were no longer able TO provide for
The little ones. SO il can readily BE-
seen that the day of the gypsy is past.
