Derivation of Toast,

The word toast" used for describ-
Ing the proposal Of the health in an af.
ter.dinner speech, dates back to medic.
val times, when the loving cup was
still regarded as an Indispensable fea-
ture Of every banquet. The cup would
be filled to the brim with wine or
mead, In the center of which would be
floating piece Of toasted bread. AZ
ter putting his lips thereto, the host
would pass the cup to the guest of
honor, seated on his right hand, and
the latter would in turn pass 1t on to
his right hand neighbor.
In this manner the cup would circu-
la e round the table, each one present
taking sip while drinking toward his
right hand neighbor. until finally the
cup would come back to the host, who
would drain what remained, and swal.
low the piece of toast in honor of all
the friends assembled at his table.

TWO WHITE MEN MAKE NEGRO
THROW UP HIS HANDS At
PISTOL MUzzlE.
Officer Dermott Appeared and Men
Fled Before Their intention
Had Been Made Known.

Two unknown white men attempted
to hold up negro on East BarraQue
street about o'clock Friday night.
but were frightened away by the ap-
pearance of Officer Dermott, who hap
pened along that part of his beat just
as the men were in the act of going
through the negro's pockets. They
had already succeeded in inducing
l.ini to hold up his hands at the point
of a revolver--a by no means difficult
task. for the darky was literally fright
ened out of his wits. Just then, how
ever, the two hold-ups saw the officer
coming. and broke to run. He at
tempted to capture them but they sue
ceeded in getting away The negro
was wholly unable to give any con-
nected account of the matter to the
officers after the occurrence, and they
did not even succeed in getting his
name, so great was his scare over the
matter.
Later in the night. the officers
rounded up two suspicious characters,
but they readily proved an alibi and
were released.

lNDlA'S HIDDEN HOARD.
Misgovernment for Centuries TAUGHT
People to Secret Their Theasure.

It would be an immense benefit TO
all mankind if the stories of gold now
held by individuals in India could be
made available for general use. Evel
since the dawn of history that coun-
try has been gathering gold and hid
ing it away. Treasures Of alnios5 in
calculabe value are possessed by
many Indian princes. When the Ma.
harajah of Burdwan died. the stock
of gold and silver. left by him was
SO large that no member of the fam
I lily could make an acurate estimate q
of it. A report made TO the Britis',
government by a secret agent stated
that on the estate OF the defunct po
entate We're number of treasure

houses, one of them containing three
rooms. The largest of these three
rooms was fortyeight feet long, and
was filed with ornaments of gold AMI
silver. plates and cups, washing bowls.
jugs and so forth--all of precious
metals. The other two rooms were full
of bags and boxes of gold muhurs
and silver rupees. The door of this
and other treasurehouses had been
bricked up for nobody knows how
long. These valuahles, according TO
an ancient custom, were in tie cas-
tody of the naharajah's wife. the
vaults being attached to her apart
nents, but none of them wero allow
ri TO be opened save in the presence:
Of the master. One vault was filled
with ornaments belonging 20 Diff
ent gods of the family. The natives
of India commonly bury Their boards.
and among the poorer classes favor
ite hiding place is hole du" beneath
the bed Disused wells are sometimes
employed for the same purpose.
It is undoubtedly a fact that very
many boards thus deposited are lost
forever. Gold is also valued on relig-
ious grounds. The gods take up great
quantities Of gold, silver and precious
stones. The temples contain vast
amounts of the yellow and white met
ais. The habit of boarding seems to
have been induced by ages of misgov-
ernn ent, during which oppression and
violence were rife. No feeling of
safety existing, it was natural that
the natives should adopt the practice
Of reducing their wealth to concen-
trated shape and hiding it.
Thus. in case of emergency, the
family savings in hard cash were al
ways within easy reach, and robbers
or other enemies were not likely to
get hold of them. Meanwhile. century
after century, the exports of India
have greatly exceeded the imports Of
that country. and, consequently, an
