Eemcte Antiquity and the Romance Of
It's Iiterntvro.
Orc Breton Investigator has affirmed
that Welsh was the language of the
Titaus, while another has explicitly
state',n that it was tho mother tongue of
"SatVn, Jnpiter and the other princi-
pal gods Of heathon antiquity. Upon
SO obscure a point we may, perhaps, be
allowed TO retain our doubts, nor aro
we called upon 10 bow with absolute
Difference 30 tho conclusion arrived at
by a moro mCdcm Cynric scholar that
the scheme Of Dante's "Divina Com
media is due to Celtic sources. No
one, however, would dream Of contest
ing that to the Cymric branch Of the
Celtic race we owe the origin Of the
Arthurian legend.
We do not know whether it viii be
one Of the duties Of the Welsh university
TO endcavor to revive the real, unadul-
teratcd Celtic literary traditions and to
purge and purify them from the accre-
tions due TO foreign influence We
should be disposed to say that Celtic
scholarship viii be more beneficial and
more successfully employed in collect
ing the indications of the influence ex-
ercised BY the Celtic spirit over the
English language English romance and
English ways of thought during the
very period when it was supposed TO
have been repressod, if not wholly de-
stroyed. Criticism, too, will have album
dant work on its hands in seeking TO
separate the authentic from the spuri-
Gus in the alleged writings of the earlier
Welsh bards.
In the first year Of the century there
was published the "Myvyrian Archmol-
ogy Of Wales, a collection Of the most
celebrated works in Welsh literature
from A. ID. 300 TO a. d. 14O0, under
the edisorshp of Mr. Jones, Mr. Ed
ward Williams known locally as Ed
ward Of Glamorgan, and Dr. Owen
Pugh. But though ~ poems are there
ascribed to Taliesin, Mr.. Stephens con
siders that 81 Of them are demonstrably
spurious and that only IL Of them arc
probably genuine-that IS TO say, be-
long TO the age to which they are attrib-
uted. Few scholars, however, would be
prepared to challenge the assertion Of
Renan that the sixth century was the
golden age Of Cymric literature, though
its first epoch is usually taken to start
from still remoter times and to extend
to the date Of the Norman conquest,
but it is not till the chronicle of Cara
dec, a somewhat dry record, recalling
in its general scheme tho moro famous
Anglo-Saxon chronicle. To the Same pc
ricd belongs the ohonicle Of Geofirey Of
Monmouth. But, as though Welshman
by birth, the Bishop Of st. Asaph elect
cd to write in Latin, we presume that
his labors, however interesting and inn
portant, would not be claimed by true
Welshmen as a portion Of Celtic litera-
ture. London Standard.

BURIED FOR TWO DAYS.
Hypnotic Interment stirs Up the Citizens
of Lexington, Ky.


LEXrNGToN, KY, Sept 10 John Law
renee Douglass, who had been hypnotized
and buried hero since Wednesday after
noon. wns released from. the spell in the
Opera House last night before a large
crowd which appeared to bo composed
largely OF sSeptics.
Edwin II. Boone who pretends TO pos
sess hypnotic power, had Douglass dug up
from his grave in the baseball park at the
expiration of AZ hours.
Two thousand people were present to
witness the taking Of Douglass from the
grave The crowd was unmanayaablo,
and dirt and dust were kicked ilto the
grave covering the face OF tho subject after
the tubing bad been removed.
There were no signs OF life, and those
who thought his muscles would twitch
whom a lump Of dirt fell on his face were
mistaken and all were mystifed when the
lid Of the coffin was raised and thore were
no evidences Of his having stirred during
the time he had been inferred. The blan-
ket in which he had been wrapped was in
order his hands and arms were just as
left, and the impressions showed thoy had
remained so.
Boone brought his subject into the cata
leptio state while he dressed him. He was
lifted from the grave in this state, and
then the hypnotist took tho rigidness out
of his muscles for a moment, increasing
his heart beat, and, again putting him in
to the cataleptic state, placed him on the
coffin lid The subject was brought thus
into the city
He was left from until O'Clock in the
fourth state of hypnotism, IN which his
muscles would move, but he remained un-
conscious.
After being released from the spell
Douglass declared that he felt no hunger
and was not thirsty. He ate a sandwich
just before going into the grave and de-
clnred the taste was still in his mouth.
He was quito weak and may be unable
TO walk for a day OF SO. He says no only
remembers looking into Boono's eyes,
which resombled to him, two large balls
Of fire. No time seemed to have passed
since then

The Str. Hays struck mighty
rough water on her last trip to the
lake. The wind came up just after
she left Ainsworth for Kaslo and
the little craft was soon in ole of
the worst storms ever seen on the
Lake. Capt. w. j. Kane was at
the wheel. He says the sea rolled
clear over the pilot house at times.
The windows and doors were all
closed tight SO that no water to
speak of got inside There
was no bay to put into near
er than Kaslo which was
finally reached in safety. The s
passengers had pretty bad scare
and some of them cried like good
fellows. A large crowd was out at
Kaslo watching the boat fight her
way through. Many thought she
would never make it, and one man
offered to wager $500 she would
never make the bay.
At the same time the Kokanee
was in critical position. The
gale drove her on the beach at
Kaslo. She had 80 tons of ore
aboard. The wind was pounding
her against the rocks, and although
a large force worked to get her off,
nothing could be done until the
wind went down.
