No one, perhaps, is more surprised at
this than Mrs. Lord herself. She looks back

GYPSiES IN EUROPE.

They Arc Increasing, Not Disappearing.
and They Are Not Always Wanderers
1t has been popularity supposed that
the gypsies of Europe. like the Indians
of North America, were becoming an
extinct race. and the conditions of their
existence are not such as Aould seem to
assure longevity. But recently pub
iished official report of the English gov
eminent shows that the number of gyp-
ties in England. SO far from declining,
is actually ON the increase, and the
same is true of some other European
countries from which figures are at
hand.
By an authentic computation made
recently there are 35, 600 gypsies in
Great Britain, 2, 900 more than at the
time of the last previous enumeration
though perhaps that may have been
somew hat imperfect. There are in the
whole of Europe nearly three quarters
of million of gypsies, the figures be-
ing: Great Britain, $4,000; Spain, 40.
600; Russia, %. 900; Germany, As, 0o0
and Austria, Turkey and the Balkan
countries, 900, 600 each. Gypsies, who

and in Scotland a gypsy is called an
Egyptian, as readers of the Little
Minister are aware. In the United
States there are few gypsies, for the
reason perhaps that they meet with
great competition in tho pursuits which

with their chief revenue-fortune tell

gypsy bands have visited the United
States from time to time aud with usu-

sizes in acquiring knowledge of music

"A little widow is a dangerous

to glide into condolences with lady
