bridge to the south side, sending one
branch through a gate in the wall into
Manila and another along the boulevard
circlng it to the Luneta and thence south
on the Gale Real to Malate.
THE CITY WALL.
The wall inclosing Manila is a massive
affair of granite. constructed in 1891 at
cost of $10,00O,000. 1t is not straight
on any of its sides, and yet it incloses n
somewhat irregular square about half a
mile long on each side. From the street
the inside of the wall is about 80 feet
high. while from the moat outside it is
nearly double this hight. Its general
thickness is about 80 feet, but in places
it is extended to 100 feet thick, particu-
larry at the corners, where magazines are
located and special defense works estab-
lished. Here projecting angles of the wall
enable guns in them to sweep the moat

THE OLD CITY.

Within the walled city at least half the
space is occupied by official buildings,
military barracks and churches and con-
vents, the remainder being business build
ings used for both stores and residences,
with few purely residence houses. The
chief structure is the Ayuntamiento, or
city hall, at once occupied by the Ameri-
cans as headquarters, facing the little
plaza Of Carlos TX. Then there are the
Treasury, the Mint, the military barracks,

Catching Cod.

Once begun codfishing on the BankB

good the men rarely ever sleep. Awak-
cned at a. IN. to fill their bait 'skids," !"
or tubs, they start at daybreak to lift
these travis and remove the overnight
catch, rebaiting the hooks again. There
are about 5000 hooks to handle, and
this often occupies until eventide, when
the boats row back After unloading
the deck is piled high with the glitter
ing mass of fish. To eviscerate this and
stow it in the hold keeps them until
midnight, when they snatch an hour or
two of sleep.
Some can go without sleep for u
week. Others will rub wet tobacco in
their eyes so that the pain may keep
them wakeful few hours longer. 9th
ers again will work till they drop from
sheer exhaustion and sleep as they lie
until aroused by comrades. A Chinese
torture is to keep men without sleep,
and banking" does this to an extent
to satisfy even the most exacting Ce-
lestial. The men sleep in their under
clothing. When above decks, they can
never leave off their oilskins, for on the
Banks it is rarely fine. Mist and murk
prevail, and the rigging and sails drip
water always.

Assuming Husbands Names.
The practice Of the wife assuming
the husbands name at marriage, ac
coIHing to DR.. Brewer, originated from
a Roman custom and became the COM
mon custom after the Roman occupa-
tions Thus Julia and Octavia, married
to Pompey and Cicero, were called by
the Romans Julia of Pompey, Octavia
of Cicero, and in latter times married
women in most European countries
signed their names in the same manner,
but omitted the ''of' Against this
view may be mentioned that during the
eixteenth and even at the beginning of
the seventeenth century the usage
seems doubtful, since we find Catha-
ri1le Parr SO signing herself after she
had been twice married, and we al
ways hear of Lady Jane Grey (nOt
Dudley, Arabella Stuart (not Sey-
mour), etc.
Some persons think that the custom
originated from the Scriptural teaching
hat husband and wife are one.
This was the rule of law SO far back
as Rracton (died 1868, and it was de-
cided In the case of Bon versus Smith,
inthe reign of Elizabeth, that a woman
by marriage loses her former name and
legally receives the name of her hus-
band. Altogether the custom is involv
ed IN much obscurity.

An Extraordinary shower.

Daniel O'Connell. the Irish agitator.
once complained in the house of COM
mons of report of a speech in Lon
don newspaper which. he said, put into
his mouth opinions he had never ex-
pressed. He vowed that if the editor
did not apologize he would move that
he be brought to the bar for a breach
of privilege.
Next day the reporter of the speech
waited upon O'Connell and gave most
remarkable explanation. He stated that
during his walk from the house to his
office in Fleet street the rain streamed
into his pockets and obliterated the
notes Of his speech.
81 accept the explanation, said
O'Connell. good humoredly, ''but let
me say that it must have been very
extraordinary shower of rain, for it
not only washed out of your notebook
the speech l delivered, but washed in
another of an entirely different char
acter,"

Holy Coat of Treves.

3 The holy coat preserved at Treves, In
Germany, is claimed to be the seamless
garment worn by Christ and for which
the Roman soldiers cast lots during the
scrucihxion. 1t is tunic about five feet
long, cut narrow at the shoulders and
gradually widening toward the knees.
Many miracles are said to have beer
performed by this robe.
It's history for the last 700 years is
clear enough, but darkness shrouds
the story of the relic prior. to the
twelfth century. The Catholic church
relies for proof of it's authenticity upon
q Tradition that it was one of a chest
fulg of relics sent as gift to the
church at Treves by the Empress Hell
e11o. She is said to have found the
coat at Jerusalem while in search Of
Tie true cross.
a legend says that in the ninth cen
tury the holy coat was concealed from
the Normans in crypt of the cathe-
dral. There it remained forgotten until
1896. when it was rediscovered and
placed in the high altar.
