DESCENDANTS OF DAVID.
Certain Russian Families That Claim
Direct Descent from Is
rneIs King.

That there are certain families
among the Jews who claim to be the
lineal descendants of King David is n
well-known fact. Concerning the
most pronounced claimants to this
honor, Ueber Land und Nicer gives the
following details:
"The recent death of Prince Alex
ander Konstantinowitz Imeretinsky,
in Russia, who was governor general
of Warsaw, brings into public prom
inence again the interesting genealog-
ical tradition that in this family are
to be found the most thoroughly ac-
credited descendants of King David.
The Imeretinskys are a branch of the
princely family of the Bagratian,
which claims that it can trace its an
Among others, the Byzantine emperor.
Constantin Porphyrogeneta, in his
annals, has recognized the claim Of
this family to a Davidic descent. 1t
is noteworthy that the book which
in Russia occupies the position held
by the 'Almanach de Gotha' in central
Europe. namely, the 'Anpuaire de la
Noblesse de Russie contenant les
Princes de lEmpre,' and printed by
the imperial publication house in ST.
Petersburg, gives most complete ac-
count of the Jewish origin and descent
of the princes of the houses of Ba-
gratian and Imeretinsky, and en-
phasizes the fact that not single
sovereign dynasty in Europe can trace
its line further back than they. 1t is
a fact that in the genealogy of this
family the name of David often oc-
ours, David I. having died in ss1. The
members of this family in the AM
nuaire' acknowledge that originally
they were of Jewish origin, but that
generations ago the prosecutions Of
the times had compelled their ances-
tors to embrace the Christian religion.
1t is further known that members of
this princely family as early as the
| fifteenth century were monks"

this matter the general public is like
lv to think there is no pure food to be

ang, It is said on good authority, could
1be farther from the truth than this.
in fact, most of the goods offered for
sale in our markets are perfectly pure
and wholesome. Less than five per
cent. of the purchase from reliable
firm would be found to be adulterated.
"But," says DR.. Wiley, with 30,000,oo0
wage-earners in this country, who
lspend three-fourths of the $25,000,o00
q day earned by them for food and its
preparation, too much attention can
not be given to the subject. All adul-
terants are not harmful, and If the
workman wants to buy oleomargarine,
labeled as such, because ii is cheaper,
he should be allowed that pleasure. In
the same manner, he should be given
glucose instead of honey if he wants it,
and is not deceived in the buying. If
some esthetic folks care more for the
delicate green tint of their peas and
such other vegetables than they do for
the good of their digestive organs, they
should be humored with the dose of
zinc and copper salts that is required
60 give it, but every can should be Ia
beled as containing zinc and copper
salts, as well as peas, so others, who
do care, may avoid it. In fact, it is

ENGINEERING I'm CHINA.
The Ce1estinls Anticipated Ameri-
cans In Some of Their Modern
Inventions.

From what has been learned about
China in recent years the conclusion
lies uppermost that while Chinese en-
gineering has proceeded quite sue
cessfully along static lines. it has
rested for centuries without progress
in all that involves motion. Thus,
while their fixed structures are
notable and frequently beautiful,
their machines for doing work and
moving people and goods are rudely
primitive. The curious Chinese
wheelbarrow is still most impor-
tant factor in land transportation,
but what in the United States, for cX-
ample, is considered very modern
cage construction" for buildings,
has been practiced by the Chinese for
centuries, and is found all over China.
This is one of the many interesting
observations made by Mr.. William
Barclay Parsons during railroad
survey in 1898, and recorded in his
book entitled: "An American En-
gineer in China" says Cassier's Maga-
zine.
Another example of how the Chi
nese have, by centuries, anticipated
some of our modern inventions is af-
forded by the system of dividing up
the hull of boat by bulkheads as a
protection against leakage, this, with
the Chinese, dating back further than
the thirteenth century. The number
of compartments in the Chinese trad
ing vessels depended upon the num-
Der of owners in a vessel. Mr.. John
II. Morrison, in an article in Cassier's
Magazine several years ago, told that
in large vessel there was some
times as many as 100. each partner
shipping his own goods in his own
compartment, which he fitted up to
suit himself, and either went in per-
son or sent one of his family to take
charge of his property.
x,-,There is thus some question wheth-
er the Chinese bulllheads or compart-
ment system was designed for insur-
ing safety for the vessel, rather than
for commercial convenience; but
there is no doubt that the compart-
ment plan existed at that early date
and that the compartments, too, were
made subs tantial and waterproof.

at pace that made the reporter fear
for the safety of his limbs.
"Ah! Mr.. Hobart, delighted to see
you," he said, as he entered, with his
hand outstretched, and before his eyes
had become accustomed to the dark
ened parlor. Then, of sudden, he
drew himself up stiffiy, fumbled in
his waistcoat, pulled out the card that
had been sent to him, and demanded:
What do you mean by this imposi-
ton, sir?" Like lightning it flashed
on the newspaper man what had hap
pened. He had, while in the vice pres
ident's room, inadvertently picked up
one of Mr.. Hobart's cards and had
used it by mistake for one of his own.
His apologies were ample, but the
senator could not be induced to for
give that thrilling dash down the slip
perry staircase simply to accommodate
mere scribhler.

When the princess royal was married
sprigs were cut for her bridal wreath
from this myrtle tree. The princess,
following her mothers example, had
one of the sprigs cared for till it be-
came full-sized tree, which served
for her daughter-in-law's wreath at
the wedding of the present emperor
of Germany.
The custom was observed in the mar
riage of the prince of Wales and all
other CT Queen Victoria's children and
grandchildren. There is already, as
the result OF his charming custom,
The making of grove of myrtle trees.
Other customs attached to the mar
riages of the royal family relate to the

since the marriage of Queen Victoria
a firm of Windsor florists have had
the honor of presenting the one, a
Chester confectioner finding the other,

tives of the press. He sent up his card
and expected to be sent curt refusal
