REMARKABLE STORMS.
Disasters on Land and Sea Around New
England.

An interesting review of great storms
in New England has just been COM
pleted by A. E. Sweetland of the Blue
Hill observatory and issued as a bull
letin Upon the great storm Of last No
vember and upon the cold wave of
last February. The November storm
was found to be the most disastrous in
the records, in point of live lost and
property destroyed, at sea. Among the
remarkable storms recorded may be
mentioned the following: Nov. IT,
1898, a heavy snowstorm began, last
ing three days; Sept. 20, 1915, a gale
caused immense destruction on land
and sea, the damage in Providence, X.
l., alone having been estimated at
S. 900, 900. In December, 1889, three
storms wrecked over 800 vessels on the
New England coast. On Oct. 2, l84l,
a storm did much harm to the fishing
fleet, 81 persons being lost from the
town Of Truro, and many others along
the Cape Cod coast. On Oct. Z, 1849, a
bark went ashore on Minot's ledge and
143 persons were drowned. April 16,
1851, Minot's ledge light was carried
away, and great damage was done
along the coast. Jan. II, 1867, a great
snowstorm caused large loss of life
around Boston, from people getting
lost in the drifts. A depth of five feet
was reported from Dorchester. There
was a brief, but violent, storm Sept. 8,
1869, that damaged trees and houses
around Boston. The "blizzard' OF
March IL, 1883, effectually tied up the
railroads of New England for five days,
causing much suffering and depriva-
ton from people caught away from
home in depots and stalled trains, that
were all but inaccessible to help from
the outside for three days. The storm
of Jan. 81, 1898, shut out Boston from
communication with the outside world
for two days and impeded travel for
five days, but caused no great loss OF
life. The storm of Nov. 27, 1898
wrecked 141 vessels along the New
England coast, and 455 persons lost
their lives, including IT'S persons (esti-
mated) from the Portland, which was
lost with all on board. There was
great destruction of property along
the shore from the high tide acting
with the gale, and a remarkable feat
ure was the great fall Of snow so early
in the year. The graphical records o
the storm elements, which form {;
large and the most valuable part o
Mr.. Sweetland's paper, show. asid'
from data on the direction, which af
fects speculation on the site of tn,
Portland's destruction, a record of I'm

THE MOONSHINER EXPLAINED.

A Georgia revenue mar had a novel
experience recently with a moonshiner
In a suspected district.
Early one morning he discovered an
old man standing near a grave in the
mountain region.
But the trouble about this grave
was that the revenue man had OBJ
served smoke issuing from the place
where the headboard should have
been.
He surprised the old man, who i'm
mediately feigned great sorrow, ex-
planning his presence there by the
statement that his brother was buried
there.
At the mention of his brother he
feigned great grief and said he never
would get over tit wuz SIGH a hard
dispensation of Providence"
But isn't it peculiar" said the rev.
enue man, that l see a stovGpipe at
the head of his grave, and smoke is
suing therefrom?"
Stranger" replied the weeping
moonshiner, "he died in his sins, an
hits my opinion they're a-roastin' of
him down below.'-Atlanta Constitu-

LEGEND OF DON JUAN.
Where Byron Got the Theme for His
Most Famous Poem.

The simplest form of the story, &C
cording to NJ. Antoine Latour, who
hunted this belle legende" to It's
source in 1856, seems to be that Don
Juan Tenorio killed the Commentator
Ulloa, whose daughter he had stolen
away. The Comendador was buried IN
the chapel of the Franciscan Convent,
into which, it was rumored, Don Juan
forced his way for the purpose of in
sulting the tomb of his victim, where
Upon the effigy, descending from It's
niche. seized upon the offender ana
bore him body and soul to the infernal
regions; the most probable explanation
being, however, that the monks, in or
der to check the atrocious career or
Don Juan, enticed him within their
walls-whence he never came forth.
The idea of the talking statue" was
first utilized by Lope de Vega, who
lived neal to the time of Don Juan;
next, Arise de Molina gives the COM
plete legend in his play entitled Ell
Burlador de Sevilla; or, Ell ConVldado
de Pedra" (The Mocker of Seville; or,
Tie Wal ~ NuCoJJ. "A bCLtblJ ANN~A
Antonio Zamora uses it again in a play
translated "All Debts Must be Paid;
Moliere presents it in lie Festin de
Pierre" laying the scene in Sicily how
ever, and improving the character OF
Don Juan so little that his audiences
were shocked and his play prohibited
and forgotten. His Don Juan was more
a citizen of the world than a Spaniard,
and the legend had become Familiarity
known all over Europe and flourtshed
as a favorite theme for puppet shows
and pantomimes. 1t had appeared in
England in Shadwell's play, called
1.-THE Libertine," n at a later day
Byron took possession Of the name,
saying:
"Tll therefore take our ancient friend
Don Juan,
We all have seen him in the panto-
mime
Sent to the devil somewhat ere his
time"
But his hero is by no means a res

CHISPA, THE TORERA.

Morals are as surely a resultant OF
climate and location as the fora or
fauna itself, and there is nothing
more elastic. A single code may reach
from the Atlantic to the Pacific. SO
what wonder II. at the end, 1t Is some
what attenuated.
This may have been the reason a
certain young B~ostonian's rigid code
could not stand the strain of Ch1spa's
charms, and yet-quien sabe? Pietro
had no code at all, and neither could
he withstand the lovely torera.
And Chispa herself, she loved her
wi sun-mocking eyes and wines-and-
olives skin, and when the bull lay dead
at her feet she received the salvos OF
applause that rained upon her with
an almost childlike grace, much as the
scarlet poppy receives the sun and
showers from heaven as her own in
alienable right and droops and dies
without them.
But Chispa, withal, was a woman, so
she loves ONE one else. too.
Oh, it is so sickening to read about
1t described in our P~uritanical English
adjectives, but go there yourself, get
the smell of blood in your nostrils, the
blaze of color in your eyes,, the shouts
and shrieks Of the people and the
blare of the band in your ears, feel the
