| feet, without once stirring out of her
| tracks, meanwhile swaying her body
like crazy thing, beating her brown
palms together like mu ed drum and
chanting a wild recltative whose chief
burden is "Jaleo. Jaleo!" Somehow,
aenselGss as it is, it works upon your
nerves and stirs you strongly, like the
song of an Arab snake charmer, the
chant of an Irish Wake-dancer, or the

The origin of the Gitanos, or Spanish
| gipsies, Is involved in mystery; ana
their habits of daily life, their marriage
ceremonies and other customs are jeal-
ously hidden from the eyes of stran-
gers. Their harsh and gutterel Ian
guage is almost impossible for foreign
ers to acquire, and even the Spaniards,
who are constantly trading with the
gipsies, and to whom q knowledge or
their jargon would be of greatest SER
vice, have never mastered dozen
words of "Romany," as the peculiar di-
alect is called. Every Gitano is pa
gan. his religious ideas never extending
beyond fetch worship; but so intensely
clannish and secretive are they that no.
body has any idea what forms their su-
perstitons take. AS they never marry
outside of their sect, their mental and
physical peculiarities are perpetuated,
unaltered or intensified from generation
to generation. The Spanish gypsy is a
born Ishmaelite Every mans hand is
against him. and he feels it no more
than fair that therefore his hand should
be in every mans pocket. Dishonest by
nature, instinct and education, and
priding himself upon it as an Indian
upon his stoicism, a Gitano considers
highway robbery, although it involves
murder, as something to boast Nof. His
wife shares his agreeable pursuits, and
his children are trained to surpaas their
parents cunning If they can FIRE.
quently the wife is much the worst
rogue of the two She wanders about
telling fortunes and selling infallible
love-potions which she compounds from
the most disgusting Ingredients she
does not hesitate at child-stealing, or
any crime that puts few pestas in the
family purse; but her virtue has passed
into a proverb. Like Caesars Wife she
is absolutely above suspicion. A terri
BILE punishment awaits the gypsy woman
who violates her conjugal vows, or who
is even strongly suspected Of having
done so. Her own relatives take her in
hand and scourge her into insenslbility;
and then she is dragged to some seclu-
ded place and buried alive.

But this was not by any means the

joined her, until there were dozen or
more on the stage. AT a given signal
the tune was changed to a livelier one;
the orchestra played faster and faster;
the audience growing excited, crowd

the furious music. The girls tore their
wreaths in pieces and showered ROSES

small coins, and an occasional hat was
tossed upon the stage by some enthusi-
astic fellow, to be instantly kicked

One "ole" was quite enough to satisfy

An immense ice Jam bars the Conncc-

jam Is a veritahc ice gorge. extending
back moro than six miles and from 10
to 20 feet deep. In places hillocks of ice
tower w 30 feet above the level of the
river and the meadows are covered with
fragments. a warm rain would set this
drift floating and as 1T will pass under the
new Fitchburg stone arch bridge. Bel
lows Falls may suffer serious damage.
This new bridge completed Dec. 10, 1880, 10

The arches are each 40 feet at the base.
with a spring of 20 feet, the --LATEST rail-
road arch in the country. 1t occupies con-
siderable more space than the former
structure and 1t is the opinion of many
that should the flood of 1875 ever be re-
peatcd, Bellows Falls will be inundated.
just above the bridge the channel is not
over 800 feet wide while a few rods north
the river is nearly 700 feet wide. This
means a big choking in times of high
water and the presence of such mass OF
ice this year increases the danger.
