SEVEN STARS IN THE SKY.
Queer Superstitions of Savages Regard
ing the Moon and the
pleiades.

In ancient Egypt the body of Osiris
was always sealed up in the ark dur
ing the month of November, because
the people believed that the seven
stars were seven brothers, sailing
their ships across the sky and carry
ing with them the souls of the dead.
The people of ancient Gaul also had
superstition, believing that the
angels and the souls of great men held
a celestial festival on that particular
night in November, when both the
full moon and the seven stars were
on the meridian at the same time.
The Hottentots of South Africa and
the Abipones of South America each
claim that the seven stars are their
deceased fathers and grandfathers.
Cakes says: Certain tribes in both
Africa and South America hold that

The enormous wealth of the late
marquis of Butte was the inspiration
of his fathers enterprise. He, the
father, had the courage to mortgage
deeply the family estates in order to
complete the building of large docks
at a little town called Cardiff. Peo-
pie were tempted to call the docks
Bute's folly But they became Bute's
fortune. They made Cardiff one of
the richest and largest ports in the

Miss Emma Altenberg an American

charged with assault and battery on
Miss Altenberg. Mrs. Emmerson and
children are, and have been out of
town, for several days.
The neighborhood of Emmerson' S
home was startled by q scream soon
after 10 o'clock Friday night. The
voice was Miss Altenberg's and she
ran into the yard as she cried out. In
II minute a small crowd collected,
among them Policeman Frank Nc
Allister. Miss Altenberg told him that
there had been a man in her room.
About the same time some one saw
Emmerson throw something under IA
rose bush, and picking 1t up, found it
to be a bottle of chloroform and a
sprayer. Thereupon Miss Altenberg
said that Emmerson was the man who
disturbed her slumber. Emmerson
himself admitted this when Policeman
Hieber had taken him to the City
building. The young mans story is
that he sprayed chloroform under the
door of Miss Alrenberg's room, as he
suspected that some one besides the
young woman was there, and wished
to find out about it. Miss Altenberg
says that chloroform was sprayed upon
her face. The case has not been dis.
posed of, Emmerson is a bright, in.
felHgent fellow, and bears a good
name. Miss Altenberg is likewise an
excellent young woman.
