EPlsTLE TO THE HEBREWS.
Book Of the Bible Is OF the Most In.
tense Interest

The question who wrote the epi3tle
to the Hebrews Is one which still re-
mains unanswered. Endless sugges.
tons have been made by Biblical
scholars. The book has been ascribed
in turn to Appollos, Luke, Aquila and
Priscilla in collaboration, and others;
but there Is no consensus OF opinion,
no one claims for his own theory that
II should be considered anything but
guess. There Is a strange fascina.
ton about this yelled prophet, so full
of the poetry of an earlier faith, who
has given to the world his conception
OF Christianity-to him q religion OF
conscience and of hope, to which he
had fled for refuge" from decaying
ceremonialism, religion in which he
had found "a strong consolation"
Even to the unlearned the book is very
literary, and those who know con-
firm this instructive judgment The
writer drops the threads of his argu'
ment to find illustrations and orna'
ments, and by no means disdains fine
verbal effects. Hebrews has nothing
of the eternal simplicity which has
kept the meaning of the Gospel clear
among the swords and pens of ten
thousand theologians. No book in the
New Testament-unless, perhaps, Rev
elations--has suffered more from the
theory of verbal inspiration. Some
thing of the writer's real mind has
been, we suspect, irremediably over
laid with the conclusions of dogma
lists; but for all those who desire tc
know what a cultivated man, who was
not st. Paul, though about Christianity
before the end of the first century. Il
remains OF intense interest.-Londor

Detectives on Wall Street.

One of the most important details
In the mechanism of Wall street is its
elaborate system of detective protec'
ton. A very effective dead line has
been established at Fulton street for
years, beyond which no crook known
to the police nor even a suspicious
looking person is allowed to pass. AS
an additional precautlon a score or
more of central Office detectives are
constantly on guard at the principal
entrances to the financial district.
They usually congregate near the
United States treasury building at
Broad and Wall streets. Millions of
dollars are constantly being carried
past this point. The money comes
in gold, packed in sacks and carried
by the ton in steel wagons. 1t Is
brought downtown in cabs or carried
in ordinary travelling bags or In the
pockets Of the crowd which constantly
pours into Wall street. Such thins
as a hold-up is unknown.

BURIAL OF THE DEAD
OLD GRAVEYAROs A MENACE TO
CITIES.
Rapid Growth of Centers Of Popula.
ton Makes the Dissertation OF
These Resting Places Of the Dead
Unavoidable - London's Crowded
Cemeteries.

Almost every page of the records of
London and Paris contains examples
OF the dissertation of abandoned
graveyards, and there Is hardly city
in the Old World that has not disturb
ed at least one of these resting
places of their whilom inhabitants
lr our towns Of rapid growth, the
cemetery Of to-day becomes the heart
OF a metropolis tomorrow; the demoli-
tfon OF graveyards in New York and
Boston has been a frequent occur
renee until 1t fails to attract at
tention.
When the Colon cemetery of Ha.
vana became overcrowded, the Gu.
bans found 1t necessary to clear 1t of
skulls, and promiscuously shoveled
them into a common boneyard. 1t pre-
sented an aspect so CHASTITY that Gen.
Wood concluded to cover the pit and
reopen 1t only for the next overflow
OF skeletons, expected in about five
years. In certain cemeteries of Lon
don, corpses are buried in standing
postures because no room is left to
lay them down. Bodies of the poor
generally are packed over each other
In tiers, and the trench Is kept open
until filed. In the poverty corner of
Calvary cemetery this has been the
customary treatment of the remains
of paupers. Newtown, where Calvary
is situated, harbors eighty corpses to
every living inhabitant. The convent

Woodside, once parts of Newtown.
which now are annexed to New York,
and constitute the geographical center
Of the enlarged city, might increase
proximity of vast and dreary charnel
fields.
A law relating to public health pro-
vided forty years ago that no grave
be dug or opened south of Eighty
sixth street, and that no cemetery be
opened in any part OF the city and
county of New York. This law should
be enforced and applied not to Great
err New York alone, but to the terri
| tory within radius of 100 miles
around every pSpulous town. People
who insist on their inanimate bodies
remaining inviolate should have then
carried to distance where they car
neither inconvenience nor injure thu
living, who need the room, and are
natural heirs Of the departed. Famous
irtermural cemeteries, like Noun
Auburn (Boston), Greenwood (Nev
York;, and Laurel Hill (Philadelphia)
could be transformed into admirable
parks. Monuments Of architecture
beauty might remain undisturbed
Others might be replaced by tree
with suitable tablets to mark tn
spot Of those upon whose dust the
grow. The Turks, 10th to disecrat
the grave of Mussulman, hav
adopted a similar custom, and thereb
have. made the cemeteries of Constar
tinople attractive to strangers.-Loui

PLEASED A CURio HUNTER.
Tale Shows How Most Collections
Are Made Up.

Are Made Up.
Frank Barnick, the expert cabinet
maker who was recently called from
New York to Washington to complete
the repair work at the White House,
tells this story of the credulity OF one
White House visitor.
while covering one Of the doors Of
the state dining room with piece Of
ordinary leather, visitor came to
me and said: oh, please tell me the
history of that leather you are using"
THE newness of the hide made me
hesitate about declaring 1t to have
been part of the cargo long years
ago of the Mayhower-or even that 1t
came from cattle raised by the i'm
mortal Washington. Knowing, how
ever, that 1t must have an uncommon
history to account for the lack of the
signs age brings, replied that as fast
as President Roosevelt shot bear he
was having the pelts tanned, and that
what l was lacking to the door was
the skin from brute Of the Missis
sippi jungles recently killed.
81 was as much amused as amazed
to have her turn relic hunter on the
spot and beg earnestly for scrap OF
the stuff. She took a piece, her eyes
beaming with pleasure, and it nc

ton of rare relics. New York Times

japanese Take to the eiove,e

The Japanese have at last taken to
the bicycle in dead earnest, and while
it has not yet penetrated to the in
terror its importation has more than
doubled in the last two years, the fig
ures being S2,6O0,O00 for 1901, and
81, 100000 for 1902, as compared to ST.
100000 for 1899. So far the wheel is
used principally as a cheap means of
locomotion in the seacoast towns. 1t

not more than $40 or SIS.

STRANGE RACE OF PEOPLE.
Called "Rsd Bones" and Distinct

Called "Rsd Bones" and Distinct
From all Others In the World.
Have you ever heard Of a class of
people called red bonesT" said
Lewis Marshall Of Charleston. s. c.,
at the Metropolitan "They are the
most peculiar people in the United
States. No one living absolutely
knows the race from which they
sprang or whence the original settlers
came. They live very nearly on the
boundary line between South Carolina
and Georgia, in the northwestern
part of the first named state. They
are very clannish, mix very little with
people not of their race and in man
ner are quite thrifty.
in slavery times they owned
slaves, visited the several summer
resorts of the southern mountains
and in way put on quite a little
style. While have nothing but
supposition to guide me, am OF the
opinion that they are descendants
OF the Basques of southern France
They do not lack courage. for a
company of them served in Hampton's
| legion during the late civil war and
bore themselves bravely at the first
Manassas. Their skin is of @
swarthy red, resembling that Of the
Indian, but at that point all resem
blance ceases, except it be that they
are very hot of temper have Otter
wondered why the ethnologists o.
this country have not studied these
people. Surely a monograph on then
would be highly interesting. Wash

To Market on Stills.

An interesting and picturesque GUS
tom in Southwestern France is that
of going to market on stills. Groups
of young men and women mounted on
high stills may be seen daily crossing
the marshy plains known as "Tbe
Landes." THE Landes" are cut mp
into small bitches, pools and ham.
mocks, and stills are, in consequence,
almost necessary to those who desire
to traverse them.
