Of gayety finds nm inevitable end In

A new generation sprang up TO which

A peculiar fate is said to overhang
the family OF the late Sir Julian Gold
smid. An ancestor Of his, 50 says the
legend, once gave shelter to a rabbi,
who, at his death, left to him bequest
Of mysterious box, which was on no
account to be opened until after the
customary seven days Of mourning. II
opened before that time, curse would
fall upon the family.
Curiosity got the better of superstl-
ton, and the box was opened before
the seven days were up. In 1t was
found a document which said that a.
the injunction of the rabbi had not
been needed no future owner of the es-
tate would be succeeded by a son. And
such, strangely enough, has been the
case ever since.

AIIIRntnrn md CrncodiIea.

Alligators, according to the late Pro
fessor Cope. belong to n much more
modern genus than that of their cous-
ins the crocodlles. No undoubtedly ex-
tinct species OF alligator has ever been
discovered by geologlsts, but those AMI
mails are fast being extermlnated at
the present day on account Of the val
ne Of their hides. Alllgators are found
In China as well as In North America.
The crocodile exists In Africa, south
ern Asia and northern Australia. The
crocodile differs from the alligator In
preferring salt water to fresh and In
being more vicious in Its disposition.
