TIE Origin Of tie Nlafia.


The origin of the Malta dates back to
the time of the Princess of the Swab-
ian line and the catastrophe which
ended the reign of Charles, Duke of
Anjou, on the island; in other words
to the date of Sicilian Vespers, Easter
Monday, March 80, 1882 While the
French, who were masters Of the is
land, were holding festivities Scilan
bridal train passed by. A French Of
ficer named Drochet, under pretense of
searching for arms, used the bride
rudely, and was stabbed to the heart
with his own sword in the hands Of
the bridegroom. The Sicilians at once
drew their stilettos and murdered the
200 Frenchmen present. The populace
ran through the city crying Death to
the French!" Even the churches
proved no sanctuary, and all the
French on the island were slaughtered
without distinction Of rank, age, or
sex. The number that persisted is es-
tlmated In all at about 800 These
words then became the motto of the
islanders: "Morte allie Francese Italia
anello." death to the French is It.

And poison fruit.
A rare red rose that shelters in the hand
But keeps its thorn;
laughing mirage hooking thirsty sand
In deserts lOrn.
The ivy of blithsome summer birds
AT winter fled
The painful sweetness of remembered words
From lips long dead
And v"t and yet while summer stars shal
shine,
Or brceHes blow,
Love will be king and rule by right divine
Ger high and low.
