Raising slaves For Market.

mo slaves, no slaves" says the Atlas
Moor impatiently, land in the towr
they are slow to raise them" I want
an explanation of this strange com
plant.
What do you mean when you say
they are slow to raise them?" l ask.
I'm Marrakesh, now" he explains
dealers buy the healthiest slaves they
can find and raise as many children as
is possible. Then so soon as the chill
dren are old enough to sell they are
sold, and when the mothers grow old
and have no more children they, too
are sold, but they do not fetch much
then"
The infamy underlying this state
ment takes all words from me, but my
informant secs nothing startling in the
case and continues gravely:
"From six years old they are sold to
be companions, and from twelve they
go to the harems. Prices are good, toe
high indeed; $54 must have paid this
afternoon to purchase one, and when
Mulai Mohammed reigned the price
would have been $50, perhaps less. and
for that one would have bought fat
slaves. Where there is one caravan
now there were ten of old times."-

kesh," in Harper's.

Fifteen thousand pilgrims annually

lone. bringing with them the body Of
st. Anne, the head of st. James the
Less and few wee bones of the inno-
cents massacred by King Herod. But
from early ages this story has been dis
puted, and the Able Duchesne, one Of
the most erudite writer's on the early
Christian saints and martyrs, cousid-
ers that the relics Of Mary Magdelene
were probably sent from Constantine
pie about the seventh century. A
Greek breviary, however, speaks Of the
saint as having died at Ephesus.
