Magyar Version of the ExpuIxfoH
Fron the Garden OF Eden.

Among the folklore OF the peasantry
Of ROumania and some OF the adjoin-
ing Magyar states OF eastern Europe
is found the story OF the expulsion Of
our FIRST parents from the garden OF
Eden. IL runs thus:
When Adam and Eve fell. God sent
Gabriel. the Magyar angel. 20 turn
them out OF Eden as a punishment for
their sin. Gabriel was received most
cOurteOusly. food and drink Of the
best being set before him. Now. Ca
briel had q kind heart and took pity
upon the poor folk and would not nc
cept their hospitality. remembering his
errand. So he returned and begged
that some one else be sent to evIct the
sinners. as he really could not do Il.

had been. He. however. was very fond
OF a good dinner. and so he sat down
and thoroughly enjoyed himself The
feast over. be told the erring pair his
errand. They at once began to weep
most piteOusly and beg for mercy
Their bitter sorrow so touched his aft
er dinner heart that he. too returned
and asked that some one else be sent.
IS he could not possibly turn out the
poor folk after accepting their hospital
ity. Then II was that Michael. the
German angel. was sent He was re-
ceived as the others by the trembling
pair and treated even more sumptu-
)usly. He sat down and enjoyed him

it Most pitcously did Adam and Eve
beg at least for time. even reminding
him that he had partahen OF their

The important part played in many
murder trials 10y n hattened and mis-

velOpment OF some curious facts. SAYS
the Baltimore American. 4 leaden bul-

may tend To reduce it's size. In rifle
some OF the lead is taken or by the
grooves. The friction also heats and

the ball. and because OF this IL changes
its shape in the air.
one peculiar fact about bullet is
that Il will very often make wound Of
entry smaller than the projectile itself
even in 80 brittle n substance as glass.
Another strange fact about bullet Is
that IL will often pass through inter
vcning clothing. making a hole that can
hardly be noticed. and yet carry on its
point circular piece OF cloth. The car

gained when the shooting occurs at q
distance greater than twelve or fifteen
feet. At a recent trial a doctor stated
that from powder marks on the face

feet. which conclusion was later backed
up by the assertion made on the stand
by the prisoner himself.

A REMARKABLE SHOT.

"One OF the best aud most remarka-
BILE shots made during the war with
Spain" said gentleman who made &C
effort TO get into the thick OF the
light. was. In my Judgment. made at
Miami. and the man who fired the shot
was Louisiana boy and member OF
my company. lie was doing duty as a
pSovost guard at the time. II was late
at nSsht when the soldiers were reused
by the quick. clear crack OF Krag-
JoTSeilsen on the outskirts OF the camp.
No particular attention was paid 20
the matter at first. as only one shot
waa fired. But with a couple OF off,
Gers we went out TO where the guard
was stationed IN order 60 find out Just
why IT was that he had hIed at that
time OF night. He explained thai &c
had seen man slipping through the
bushes some distance away and had
called on him TO halt He failed TO
obey the command. and the guard
blazed away at him. more TO frighten
him into stop than anything else
OF course. the fellow never halted. He
was probably too badly frightened to
stop at that time.
While we were talking 10 the guard
we heard fearful noise at least half n
mile from the guards station. and we
made break for the place to see what
the matter was. We heard several
people screaming as II I'm great agony.
Down the road we went at full speed.

little cabin which stood Oh the road
side. The noise was i'm this cabin. and

the house They were in great agony,
and we asked them what was the mat
ter We have been shot they said.
and sure enough they had been shot
One was shot in the right arm. an
other in the back and the third in the
hip. They had all been wounded by
the same bullet. The man who was
wounded in the arm was lying on his
right side Tho ball passed through
his arm Next TO him one OF his com
panions was sprawling out on his back
and the bullet split the hide on this
part OF his anatomy as smoothly as a
knife. Then It passed through the
neshy part OF the third mans hip and
sped Oh.
We could not find the bail II had
passed through the side OF the house,
