Expulsion of tho Jews from spain.

The expulsion Of the Jews from
Spain is one of the most appalling
tragedies in all history. The cele-
brated edict against the unhappy race
was issued by Ferdinand and Isabella
in the year 1892. Before four months
had expired the whole Jewish popula-
ton were, hidden to leave Spain, car
rying with them nothing in the shape
of gold or silver. To convert their
property into bills of exchange and
m~oVableE was the only The
market was glutted; a house was Civ
en- for an ass, a vineyard for a suit
of clothes. All in vain did the perse-
cuted race endeavor to purchase "a re-
mission of the sentence by the pay
ment of exorbitant ransom and the
exodus began. Eight hundred thousand
Jews left Spain, some for the coast of
Africa, where the Arabs ripped their
bodies up in search for gems or gold
they might have swallowed, and COM
mfted other shocking and u~nspeakable
atrocities; some for Portugal, where
they bought the right to exist for a
large head-taX, and where they saw
their sons and daughters dragged away
to baptism before their eyes. Others
were sold as slaves, or had to satisfy
the ~rapacity of their prosecutors with
the bodies of their children. Many
flung themselves into the wells, and
sought to bury despair in suicide. The
Mediterranean was covered with fam
ine-stricken and plague-breeding fleets
of exiles. Putting into the port of
Genoa, they were refused leave to re-
side in the city, and died by hundreds
in the harbor. Their fostering bodies
bred a pestilence along the whole Ital-
ian seaboard, and at Naples alone
twenty thousand persons died. Fitting
from shore to shore, these forlorn
s%pecters, the victims of brutality and
.avarice, everywhere pillaged and
everywhere rejected, dwindled away
and disappeared.

A policeman on duty in Hong-Kong
harbor the other day noticed a parcel
wrapped in mating tied to one of the

body was inside the wrapping, and
after celebrating whether he should
send for the dead box or take it ashore
himself he took the latter course. The
parcel was slowed away in a coal bas-
ket, and the policeman's surprise can
we'll be imagined when on opening the
mating a live 6-months'-old girl, who
howled most Justify, was found inside.

INDIAN LEGEND.
Explaining the Reason Why They Paint
Their Faces.

Their Faces.
The question as to why Indians naint
their faces SO hideously has lone mr.
lied people who are interested in the
habits and traits of the aborigines
The other night the question came I'M
at the Art club. Mr.. Fanny said
that he had heard but one legend
bearing on the point. 81 was sitting
at a campfire" said he, Sin a village
OF Jacar1lla Apaches one night listen
ing to the stories and legends that
were being told, when 1 propounded
the old question again, hardly ex-
pecting even the usual expression of
Ignorance that hides so many of the
thoughts of the Indians. To nv sur
prise, however, l received the answer
mat l least expected. An old fellow.
VINO had sat all the evening listening
TO the stories without changing his at
t1tude, grunted and Strengthened up as
ne heard the question. Proceeding
with all due solemnity, he told the
following legend: Long ago, when
men were weak and animals were big
and strong, a chief of the red men
who lived in these mountains went out
TO get a deer, for his people were hun
cry. After walking all day he saw a
deer and shot at it, but the arrow was
turned aside and wounded a mountain
lion which was also after the deer.
When the lion felt the sting of the
arrow he jumped up and bounded
AFTER the man, who ran for life. He
was almost exhausted, and when he
teit his strength giving way, he fell to
the ground, calling on the big bear.
who, you know, is the grandfather of
men, to save him. The big bear heard
the call, and saw that to save the man
ne had to act quickly, so he scratched
MS FOOT M sprinkled his blood over
the man. Now, you know, no animal
VIII eat of the bear or taste his blood.
so When the lion reached the man he
smelled the blood and turned awav.
but as he did sc his foot scraped the
race OF the man, leaving the marks
OF his claws on the blood-smeared
face. When the man found that he was
unlnJured he was so thankful that he
let the blood dry on his face n
lever washed it at all, but left it until
1t peeled off. Where the claws of the
lion scraped it off there were marks
that turned brown in the sun and
where the blood stayed on it was light
er, You know, all men paint their
faces that way with blood and scrape
it off in streaks when they hunt or 90
to war;"

uron a Breath of Wind.

On the summit of a hill in a western
state is a courthouse so situated that
the raindrops that fall on one side of
the roof descend into Lake Erie, and
thence through the st. Lawrence into
the Atlantic. The drops on the other
side trickle down from rivulet to river,
until they reach the Ohio and Missis-
sippi, and enter the ocean by the Gulf
of Mexico. A faint breath of wind de-
termines the destination of these rain
drops for 5000 miles.

What "KalsomInes" Are.

"Kalsomines" are cheap temporary
preparations manufactured from
chalks, clays, whiting, ETC., and are
stuck on the wall with decaying ami
NAL glue. They bear no comparison
with Alabastine, which is a cement
that goes through a process of setting,
and hardens with age. Consumers, in
buying Alabastine, should see that the
goods are in packages and properly
labeled. Nothing else is "just as
good" as Alabastine. The claims of
new limitations are absurd on their
face. They cannot offer the test of
time for durability.
