prove Of Interest. Among the 200.o
Christians at present in the island
barely 1000 belong to the. Latin rite,
and these chiefly in the larger towns
Canea, Gambia, and Retimo. When
Venice in 1904 took possession of the
island, which was formerly under the
sway of the Byzantine empire. no less
than eight episcopal sees were erected,
with an archbishopric at Gambia. 1t Is
therefore probable that at that time
nearly the whole island was Catholic.
After 1869, when Crete fell into the
hands of the Turks, the Latin bishops,
with nearly all their clergy, left the
country, which fell into the hands of
the schismatic Greek clergy, who
about this time came to it. In 1874

There are three Latin parishes in the

ionally visited, at Sitia. There are

frightened and fed precipitately. The

The Intemperance Of Cooks

It is we'll known fact that a very
large number Of professional cooks, or
cooks who work in hotels and large
boarding houses. are addicted to the
excessive use Of stimulants. Some
ascribe this to the high temperature of
the kitchen, and consequent exhaus-
ton; others to the loss Of appetite pro-
duced by the constant sight and odor
Of food. 1t is also said to be due to
tasting sauces that are favored with
spirits. Exhaustion and lack of appe-
tite are probably the most frequent
causes. On the other hand, men who
are employed about the furnaces of
iron works, the firemen on railroads,
and stokers on steamboats,, are not ad-
dicted to the use of intoxicants; they
could not retain their places If they
were. Whatever the reason for the
intemperance of cooks, it is generally

SAVED BY HIS PRISONERS.
Men Arrested ~ Tramps Kept Thei
Captor from Bleeding to Death.

Deputy Constable Fred Black Of
Fruitvale nearly lest his life recently
while trying to arrest four tramps. He
accidentally stabbed himself while en-.
gagged in a battle with two of the men
and had it not been for the assistance
Of the other tramps, who refused to run
away, he would have bled to death.
says the San Francisco Examiner.
Black had been informed that many
petty crimes We're being committed just
outside the city limits and he went
to round up all the Weary Willies"
in the neighborhood. In q big field
Black came upon four men who were
taking it easy and cooking their din
ner. The tramps were ordered into
line for the march to the county Jail.
All went well until a fence was reached
when two of the fellows showed fight.
Black gave them battle and as they
jumped over the fence the officer drew
big bowie knife and started In pur-
suit. He missed his footing and fell
from the fence on the huge knife, the
blade of which penetrated his right
thigh. severing one of the main ar
teries. The two fighting tramps made
their escape. The officer called on the
two remaining tramps not to desert
him in his trouble and leave him to
die.
"Pardner, we never desert a man In
the hour of need," remarked one Of
them.
The prisoners carefully bandaged
the wounds Of the helpless officer and
stopped the flow of blood. Then they
carried him half a mile to the railroad
track in the hope of getting help. On
three different occasions one of the
prisoners tagged Southern Pacific
trains, but the engineers would not
stop.
Finally one of the tramps ran five
miles to Haywards to tell the news
and induced the Haywards local rail-
road men to stop the train and pick up
the officer. Black was unconscious
when removed to his home, but his
tramp prisoners remained with him
until they saw that he was all right.
They were rewarded for their trou-
BILE by being given their freedom.
II owe my life to those two tramp
prisoners" said Constable Black. 81

Bank of England Forgery.

The clever forgery of notes of the
Bank of England, which recently came
to light quite by accident, has created
sensation from the fact that the
banks own paper, with the proper
water mark, was reproduced. This
had never before been done. The
forged notes were absolutely perfect,
excepting that the secret cipher marks
were lacking. The discovery that the
notes were not genuine was made by
cashier who happened to have rea-
son formally to check the validity Of
the notes by reference to the cipher
books. About 100000 Of the forged
notes have turned up SO far, and it has
been discovered that they were all put
in circulation in one day by being
changed simultaneously at twenty-five
different exchanges in Paris. The gang
is known to be large one, but SO far
the police have been unable to trace its
members.

Now, for the first time since that fatal

SO truly-in his famous romance, the

OF the place, and the Strada del Sepol-

No such impediments now await the
traveller, and a very prosaic and dis

classical and ultra enthusiastic eye. the
first impressions of Pompeii are disap-
pointing. The first place of interest
which is passed is the so-called BASIL
