resolved to accumulate a fortune, he
also made to himself a promise that
the money so saved should be disposed
of for the public good-during his own

kept is evidenced by the fact that since
1890 he has given away fully So, 100000.

unknown man leaped from the fourth

probably fatal injuries. He was re-

an unconscious condition. Three other
persons, inmates of the hotel, are
missing, and search is being made in
the ruins for their bodies.

William Simpson devoted his life to a
study Of the narrative and wrote a book
to prove that the Biblical story is due to
an initiatory ceremony connected with
the religion of the Assyrian fish god. who
was akin to the Dagon OF the Philistines.
Recent researches have brought to light
hundreds of pieces Of Assyrian sculpture
containing representations Of human be-
ings draped in 6shskin or protruding
head and shoulders from the jaws Of the
FISH. A man who clad himself In fish
skin was supposed to be endowed with
the attributes Of the deity. and after I'M
dergoing the rite the novice was supposed
to be born again.
Simpson argued that in course of time,
when the ceremony fell into disuse and
Its meaning was forgotten, the incidents
Of the rite were developed into miracu-
Ions story"

Havana, Jan. IA sensation was
caused in custom house circles and
1t soon spread over the entire city, by
the suspension from duty of Senior
Arturo Arostegui. deputy collector, on
account of the recent frauds by ap-
praisers, through which, Judging from
the increase of receipts during the last
few days, without any apparent in
crease in the amount of shipping, the
government must have been robbed
daily for some time, Of from $4,000 to
$4,000. 1t is not 5oelieved. however,
in official circles that Senior Arostegui
has been guilty OF any Irregularities,
although sufficient evidence has been
laid before Collector Bliss to warrant
his suspension pending investigation.
Every effort continues to be made by
the friends of the accused appraisers
to have the charges against them sup
pressed, and it is believed that the Gull
prits endeayored to have Senior Aros-
tegui arrested, believing that his
cousin, Senior Quesada, has influence
enough in Washington to secure dis
continuance Of the prosecution and
that he would exercise this influence
more readily If his relative were sup
posed to be involved.
The more the government represent
atives look into the frauds the worse
these appear to be. Apparently q large
majority of the Havana merchants
have been mixed up in the conspiracy.

VIII the Lock Step BE AboIisheds

Prison authorities are debating over
the abolition of the lock ster. Certain
sumnnitarians claim that prisoners train
ed for long terms in this pace acquire a
peculiar gait. which is easily recognized
and which brands ex-convicts for life.
The Indiana state penitentiary has
abolished the. lock step accordingly,
and others are likely to follow. Strong
pressure in this direction has been
brought upon the New York authorities,
but they are firmly opposed to the change.
