4 GRAND RABBI BURIAL.
From The London Telegraph.

Most extraordinary scenes took place in Tunis
yesterday, the occasion of the burial OF
Mouchi Berrebi, the late grand rabbi of the Jews
of the proteCtorate. Hebrew traditions ara kept
TO the letter OF the law in Tunis especially as re
CARDS funerals About five thousand Jews of
all classes uhronged round the funeral car IL
deaVoring to touch the body of the dead digni-
tary of the synagogue The crush was enor-
nous and as the body had several times fallen
out Of its place, the police took charge of the
funeral and in strong force escorted the car 10
the cemetery. Here further trouble arose as
lot OF people wanted 70 throw earth into the
pilIowcase which TO he placed under the
head of the grand rabbi in his tomb. The police
succeeded, with great difficulty. in preserving
order and with the help Of the fifteen voluntary
gravediggers the body. in its white shrOud
taken from the car and consigned to the earth.
Before il was carried down there was final
rush Of people who wanted 70 kiss the shroud.
MANY also struggled 10 descend into the grave
for the purpose OF saluting the corpse for the
last time bur they were driven back by sheer
force During the burial, which was quickly
effected owing to the crowds. women IN the
cemetery pierced the air with their haartrenclng
walls The explanation OF these extraordinary
scenes is that the Jews Of Tunis considered thar
tbeir grand rabbi had died a saint, or. as the
phrase is among Catholics, in the door or sane
titv ana that whoever helped to carry me body'
IIiesed i or even touched the shroud Of fine
linen enveloping IT, received pardon TOT SINS

championship will be the third held in Chicago.
The first was held the Wheaton links. in 1897

Though Mr BaUou refuses to disclose the names
of the probable competitors. it is believed that
the list this year will be the largest ever received
duced from thirtv-siX TO eighteen holes IS one OF
the reasons given for this. but equally important
is the decision TO allow sytyfour instead ~ thirty

From Nature.

From Nature.
One Of the most remarkable architectural
structures in existence is the lefthanded spiral
staircase in the Chateau de SOis, Touraine, built
during the sixteenth century from designs by
Leonardo da Vinci. In a we'll illustrated and
thoughtful article published in the May number
Of The Monthly Review" Theodore Cook shows
that the design of this staircase corresponds so
exactly with the spirals on the common Mediter-
ranean shell known VOluta veSpertiltO as 10
leave little doubt that the artist had that shell
before him as his model The spiral on the
tral column OF the core Of che staircase corre-
spends exactly, for instance, with the spiral
ridges on the cOlumella Of tie vOlute. as seen in
section. This of itself would be strong. al
though perhaps not absolutely convincing. evil
dence as TO the origin of the design But the
staircase has also exquisite outer balCstrade.
which shows a correspondence to the coils on
the external spire Of the shell close as that
which obtains between the interior of the stair
case and the coIUmela of the volute. Such a
dual resemblance could scarcely be the result of
coincidence and the author seems. therefore to
be Justified in the view he has taken 1t is re-
marka BILE however. that the spirals in the stair
case run in the reverse direction 10 those in
normal examples of the she'll that Of the central
shaft being Iefthanded instead OF righthanded
The spiraIs are. in fact, those Of reversed or
CextraI example of the she'll OF which perhaps
one in a million occurs in nature. That Leo
nardo da Vinci had such reversed shell from
which TO copy is unlikely but il is known that
he was Iefthanded, and lefthanded man would
naturally draw a reversed spiral The author
we believe has in hand a work on natural
spirals in general
