The Spaniards of Gibraltar.

Your Spaniard born in Gibraltar is
quick to call himself an Englishman,
though his actions may belle his pre-.
tentions. Your true Briton, with a
long line of cockney ancestors, looks
down upon the whole Spanish nation
as an inferior race.
The English soldier who conducted
us through the Moorish galleries in
the Notifications interpreted his
local description with information re-
garding regimental regulations. He
told OF the schools where man might
learn everything, particularly the
languages. "Of course nobody ever
learns Spanish; it's no good otter You
leave here, and while you are here the
Spaniards have to learn English il
they expect us to have anything to do
with them"-this in tone OF careless
contempt, quite impossible to convey
in words.
As another bit Of interesting in
formation, he told us one man out
of every four was allowed q wife,
''snd very useful she is in making
money for her husband for she takes
in officers washing and does any other
little thing that comes handy"
{ ~ SUPPOSE You choose your wives
among the pretty Andalusians," com.
mented some one.
The fellow stiffened himself to his
full height, thus emphasizing at once
his scorn and the cut Of his trim
jacket: beg pardon, ma'am, but q
British soldier wouldn't lower himself
by marrying with dirty, lazy

Where Stone 10 Scarce.

when you consider" said q rail-
road man, 'that when people in the
extreme southern section Of New Jer-
sey have need of stone for building
purposes they have to 60 q hundred
or more miles for it, it is not surpris.
ing that the houses down there, and
even the big hotels are invariably
constructed Of wood. Now, at Cape
May, for instance, they have a seawall
of stone, and every pound Of rock in
it had to be hauled from Trenton, 1870
miles away. Just now the Reading
railway is in aposition to secure stone
ballast for little more than the cost
of transportation, because of the oper-
ations upon the Reading subway in
this city. There are several big
stretches of solid rock along the line
of this work, and much of the stone is
now being sent down to Atlantic City
to be used for riprnpping where the
railroad company is raising its tracks
across the meadows. "-Philadelphia

Across Austrnlin.

David Carnegie, who is q son OF the
Earl of Southesk, has just returned
from a remarkable expedition from
Coolgardie, in the south, to Kimber-
ley, in the north of Western Australia.
The journey of 5000 miles, which oc-
cupied over year, brought out the
innate determination, pluck and self
denial of the young explorer. Dur
ing the hazardous journeyings over
the endless sand deserts MI. Carnegie
and his companions had on more than
one occasion to go without water in
order to give it to their animals. The
route followed by Mr.. Carnegie, at
whose expense the whole enterprise
was conducted, had never before been
traversed by white man, and the
result OF his observations is that it
has now been proved that the greater
part OF the interior of the colony is
nothing but waterless desert.

Oh, Love Ia not summer MOOD,
Nor flying phantom OF the brain,
Nor youthful fever OF the blood,
Nor dream, nor fate, nor circumstance.
Love Is not born OF blinded chance,
Nor bred In simple Ignorance.
But Love hath winter In her blood,
And love is fruit OF holy pain, q
And perfect flower OF maldenhood.
True love issteadfsst asSthe skies,
And, once alight, she never flies;
And love Is strong and still and wise.

A JAPANESE WRITER.

Kitishima Kata Hasche is the real
or family name of the clever Japa-
nese girl who is winning fame by
writing for the magazines and news
papers of Chicago and the east under
the pen name of Otano Watanna,
while more dollars come from her
work as stenographer. Miss Hasche,
or as she prefers to be called, Miss
Watanna-the two names meaning
the same thing, but belonging to diff
ferent Japanese dialects-although
scarcely past her thenty-flrst birth
uay, has seen more of life and expert
ence than the average woman OF twice
her age. The realism which makes
her fiction so true to life and so keen
ly interesting is based on a knowl-
edge of life and the world which has
been acquired in the most practical
way.
Born in Yokohama, Japan, she was
taken by her parents, and in com
papy with the three brothers and
nine sisters who shared with her
their care and supervision, to Liver
ncol. England, and from thence to
Manchester, before she was eight
