WINNIPEG. Manitoba. Sept. 7.-On Sat
urday the General Synod of the Church of
England in Canada in session at Winnipeg
spent the day in discussing the adoption
in the church of the revised edition of the
Scriptures. BY a small ma jority the synod
decided against their adoption. The Ameri-

with the majority The house of bishops
will likely follow the example of the lower
house. The principal argument used
against adoption of the revised Scriptures
was the church in England had not vet

a Legend of The Wandering Jew.

In eastern Europe and western Asia
the inhabitants of the different cOun-
tries have their various versions of the
story of the Wandering Jew. One of h
most interesting of these is the Bulgar-
ian Legend of the Cursed Cobbler. !"
It is as follows: At about the time OF
the c~rucifiXion q shoemaker named
Ahasnerus set up a shop in Jerusalem
on the street leading from the Judgment
hall to Golgotha, the place of execu-
ton. Day after day the sandal makers
labors were interrupted by gangs of
hooting hoodlums following som
wretch to his death which was soon to
occur on the bloody slopes of the very
appropriately named "Place of a Skull"
One fine day an immense crowd seemed
to be working it's way toward the place
Of execution. Inquiring the cause, he
soon learned that Jesus was to be cruel
fed that day. Soon the procession came
in sight, Jesus bearing the cross.
By the time the cobbler's shop had
been reached Jesus was perfectly ex-
hausted, and begged to be allowed to
place the cross against the building and
to rest himself Oh the steps. But Alias
nerus drove him away with terrible
curses, and would not even permit him
to lay the awful burden in the street
before the shop. AS Jesus turned to
press on he turned to the shoemaker
and calmly said, Il soon shall cease my
journey and lay this burden aside for
ever, but thou shalt wander over the
earth until I come again" The aston
ished Jew stood like one turned to stone
until the crowd had passed out of sight.
and the streets were silent and empty.
Then, driven by terror and remorse. he
looked his door and began that endless
tramp which the master has said should
last until the Judgment day.-St. Louis

The Paris correspondent of the New
York Tribune in a letter which appeared
in that journal OIL Sept. %, 1889, says:
SIN prowling around the London an
tiquarian resorts | was fortunately able
to find original editions of the drinking
song which became The Star Spangled
Banner. It is entitled TO Anacreon in
Heaven, and is one of those bombastic,
inflated, and metaphorical songs which
were in vogue during the last century.
That it was very popular in London is
proved by the fact that Braham made it
one OF his repertory Of songs, and l have
also a copy dated 1902. in which it is
changed into a Masonic ode, beginning
ITO Old Hiram in Heaven, and cele-
brating Hiram Abiff, architect Of the
temple at Jerusalem. A bacchanalian
ditty, q Masonic ode, a national anthem

Ireland and Potheen.

1t is commonly supposed that drunk
Inc is rife in Ireland and the people
consequently idle and unfit for work.
In this respect happily there has been a
great change. The illicit manufacture
of the poisonous 'tpotheen" is strictly
depressed by the police and the people
cannot afford to buy whisky. The drink
ing of tea which is much too strong-in
fact, boiled-is said to cause more de-
struction to health in Ireland than does
whisky. The increase of insanity has
even been attributed to this immoderate
tea drinking, and the price paid for tea
is much higher than it's true value.-

1t is now about time for the press
to stop circulating the foolish and un-
truthful stories about great fortunes
awaiting people across the water. Not
one in 100 Of these stories is true.
They are base frauds.
The United States consul at Amster-
dam writes to the state department
that for the last three months inquir-
les on this subject at his consulate
have been SO numerous as TO almost
battle reply. The sAnneka Jans' es-
tate, the "Van Cot" estate, the evan
are some Of the fancy titles supposed
to represent millions, actually repres
enting nothing.
"These estates don't exist writes
the consul. "They are myths, will o.
the wisps, and fakes. The "Bank of
Holland" in which the "unclaimed
Millions are alleged to be deposited
does not exist. Careful investigation
induces the belief that these estates
originated in the brain of some ras-
cally speculator, who imposing on
human credulity, found many vic
Tins and feeced them most profitably.
If these estates ever had a bona fde
existence, then they come clearly
within purview Of the statute of linn
itations passed by the Dutch parlia-
ment in 1852, by which all unclaimed
inheritance were irrevocably escheat-
ed, after a lapse of five years to the
state.

A French Story.

Here is q characteristic French story:
Some months ago Nine. Meta of Paris
came into q respectable sum of money.
She took little heed for the morrow,
and was wont to declare that when her
last penny came she would solve the
difficulty by taking her own life. With
this end in view she bought a gorgeous
funeral robe and a highly ornament
ed and padded coffin, which she placed
in her bedroom. She next sent for the
leader of the local town band and hand
ed him over a fair sum of money on
condition that he should head her fu-
neral procession, and she furthermore
drew up a programme of popular and
joyous tunes to be played by his orches-
ira on that occasion. A few weeks ago,
when only a franc or two of her little
fortune remained, the widow, deter
mined on ending all worldly troubles,
bought some charcoal, shut herself up
in her room and was found dead next
morning. Punctually obedient to orders
the town band appeared at the hour OF
the funeral and saluted the corpse with
a gay hunting chorus. The funeral pro-
cession then moved off at a quick pace,
to the accompaniment of a lively march.
-Four times was the cortege pulled up III
route for the cemetery, and at the last
halt the band broke forth with the
sprightliest dance music, like strains
accompanying the lowering of the coffin
into the grave.-Philadelphia Press.
