NO REAL INDIANS IN CUBA.

Recently Been Discovered,

But a Race Hithcrton Unknown Has
Recently Been Discovered,
Stewart Culin, curator of the Uniyer-
sity of Pennsylvania Museum of Art
and Science, returned recently from a
trip to Cuba, where he investigated re-
ports of the existence of savage In
dams in the interior Of the island.
Although there are no wild red men
there MI. Culin found several bands of
so-called Indians who intermarry only
among themselves, possess Indian char
acteristics, straight black hair, copper
colored skin and high cheek bones, but
have no tribal organization. They have
few customs which differ from those OF
rural Cuba generally and retain little
more Of their own language than is the
common property Of the natives.
Concerning the so-called Indians in
Cuba representing the aborigines, Gu
rator Culin said: ''There has been an
importation Of Indians into Cuba from
Yucatan by way of San Domingo since
the middle of the last century, which
complexities the question Of the survi-
val Of the aboriginal Inhabitants of
Cuba. From the evidence I procured
In Barracoa there is little doubt that
the Indian settlement at Yarn dates
back to the period of the Spanish con-
quest. The native houses are Of Indian
design and many Of the prevailing Gus.
toms are of Indian origin. Man, in the
rural districts of the island, has sim.
ply reverted to a state which with re.
cent wars is %unhappily not far removed
from savagery. At the same time the
cordial hospitality of the people, their
gayety and lively interest and curiosity
do much to compensate for the wretch-
edness Of living"
Visiting the interior of the island, the
curator said he saw the so-called In.
dian Almarrares who says he is 112
years old. He has few Indian charac-
teristics and no special traditions. The

"TnEY HAVE csME!" III CRIED.

the one she had written him, overflow
ing with the glad anticipations to which
her newborn love had given rise.
For a time she sat speeches. with an
ger and amaZement.
The idea of her father ever marrying
again had never once entered her mind.
Why should he? Was she not there
to keep house for him? And when she
left, as, of course, she should in time,
would not Marion then be ready to
take her place? She never heard any
thing so ridiculous.
And to think that her poor mother,
who had been hardly two years in her
grave, should be so soon forgotten!
II she thought that her adored Charles
Edward would ever be so false to her
memory she was sure that it would
break her heart!
But the postscript was the unkindest
cut of all. The sighting manner in
which her father alluded to "the young
man," whose name she had written to
him in full-Charles Edward Fitzhenry
Stubbstwas more wounding than the
Iarshest invective.
And to presume to think that she
knew nothing Of love, who had expert
enced it in sweetness and power!
Full of these indignant thoughts Anne
sat down and penned an epistle to her
adored Charles Edward, detailing her
grievances, and ending with the decla-
ration that she would never, never SUBJ
init to be domineered over by q step
mother, and that she would ever be
true to the first and only love of her
life!
The next mail brought a reply, stat
ing together with many protestatons
of undying affection, ''that he could
truly sympathize with her feelings, In
view Of her fathers marriage, having
just received the intelligence that his
mother was to take another husband.
She had given him one stepfather when
he was a boy, and he would never sub
NIT to the rule of another.
"He would be there on Thursday, to
demand, in person, her hand of her
father. If he refused they would fly
together to some happy place, where
cruel fathers and stepfathers were un-
known"
Charles Edward was as good as his
word. Promptly, on the following
Thursday, he made his appearance at
the house Of the father Of his adored
Anne.
Scarcely were the first rapturous
greetings over when the sound Of car.
rage wheels was heard.
Anne turned pale.
"They have comew she cried, start
ing to her feet.
"IA EN- come" responded Charles
Edward, defiantly. "You are not afraid,
I hope, when I am here?"

wolsey's Casks of Gold.

0A9 OsSA0 Va SOkOo
1t has been suggested that it was in a
vault at Hampton Court Palace that
the incident occurred which opened
Henry's eyes to the wealth acquired by
his favorite cardinal.
AS the story goes, the kings fool was
paying a visit to the cardinals fool.
and the jocose couple went down into
the wine vaults. For fun one Of them
stuck a dagger or some other pointed
instrument into the top of a cask, and
to his surprise touched something that
clinked like metal The meddlesome
pair upon this set to work and pushed
OF the head Of the cask, discovering
that 1t was full Of gold pieces. Other
casks by their sounds gave indications
that they held gold, and not wine. The
kings fool stored up his secret, and one
day, when Henry VIII. was boastine
about his wine, the fool said, satiri-
cally:
'You have not such wine, sire, as M
lord cardinal, for he hath casks in hi;
cellar worth a thousand broad pieces
EACH" And then he told what he had
detected. Whether this be true or not.
it is certain that Wolsey was SO far
awake to the fact that he vas SO sus.
pected by the monarch, as to deem It
prudent to present him with Hampton
Court.

ness that is peculiar to soldiers.

KINGS EVIL.
How Ignorance and Super
stition go Hand in Hand.

A curious sight might have been seen
In England couple of centuries ago.
At Whitehall or some other royal resi-
dence a little group of people would
shrinkingly await the coming Of tho
king, in order to be rtouched for the
evil" The specific revil" was scrofula,
and it was the popular belief that scrof-
ula could be cured by the royal touch.
Hence the common name for scrofula
was Kings Evil.
Nowadays we know that scrofula Ia a
disease of the blood and that even were
there magic in kingly touch, no ex-
ternal treatment could cure scrofula.
The medicine which cures scrofula
