PRISONS OF SILENCE.
Where Convicts Ever Wear Shrouds

Where Convicts Ever Wear Shrouds
and Sleep Beside Collins.
Entombed in grim castle on the
outskirts of Lisbon are some of the
most miserable men on earth. These
are the inmates of Portugafs deadly
prisons of silence. In this building ey-
erything that human ingenuity can
suggest to render the lives of its pris-
oners horrible. maddening torture is
done. The corridors, piled tier on tier
five stories high, extend from a COM
mon center like the spOkes of huge
wheel The cells are narrow, tomb
like, and within each stands a coffin.
The prison garb is a shroud. The at
tendants creep about in felt slippers.
No one is allowed to utter WORD.
The doors are unlocked, and the half
a thousand wretches march out, cloth
ed in shrouds and with faces covered
by masks. for it is a part of this
hideous punishment that none may
look upon the countenances of his fell
low prisoners. Few of them endure
this torture for more than ten years.

BITING THE THUMB.


1t Used to Be Considered a Pledge of
Mortal Revenge.
In Romeo and Juliet the servants
of Capulet and Montague begin quar-
rel by one biting his thumb at the 9TH
ers. Commentators have regarded this
act as an insult, quoting the following
passage from Decker's Dead TERM"
what swearing is there, what Shout
dering, what jostling, what jeering,
what biting Of thumbs to beget quar-
relsv'
Sir Walter Scott, however, in note
to the Lay Of the Last Minstrel" says,
ITO bite the thumb or the glove seems
not to have been considered upon the
border as gesture of contempt.
though SO used by Shakespeare, but as
a pledge of mortal revenge" 1t was
thus accounted to be solemn assur-
ance that at the proper time the sword
should settle the dispute or purge the
offense.
Something Of the sort may have pre-
vailed among the Romans, for it is
thought that the Latin polliceri, to
promise, is derived from pollex, the
thumb.

AFRICA.
The Way That Name Was Bestowed

The Way That Name Was Bestowed
Upon the Continent.
The name Africa was given by the
Roman conquerors. after the third
Punic war, B. G. 146. to the province
which they formed to cover the terri
tory of Carthage. 1t was most prob
ably adopted from the word AIRY
gah," the Carthagenian term for col
ony.
This original Africa was limited in
extent. Its borders reached, according
to Pliny, from the River Tusca on the
west, which divided it from Numidia,
to the bottom Of the Syrtis Minor on
the southeast. though Ptolemy carries
it as far east as the bottom Of the
Great Syrtis, making it include Numi-
dia and Tripolitana.
In later days the whole African con-
tinent took its name from this part,
which in its narrower limits CORE
sponded with the modern regency of
Tunis and was called by the Greeks
Lydia Africus, the stormy southwest
wind, was so called in Italy because it
blew from Africa.

toned, have all been used for offensive
or defensive purposes in actual war
fare
