Little Italy has two mysteries

One Is why Angelina Pascalini worked
% hard and spent so little, and the
other is why Angelina Pascalini al
ways insisted on seeing the papers

not read. Angelina Is now married
and the two mysteries deal with this
marriage.
In order that IL may be known who

Genoa where the sun shines brightly
and the sky is tinted blue and red:
where men work slowly and live easily.

course OF the eighteen years which had
rolled over Angelino's head before a
far-seeing padrone packed him into
the steerage OF a very uncertain ship
and sent him sailing over the hilly
water TO America, IL may be doubted
IL Angelina had seen altogether Of his
own as much money as the equivalent
Of five dollars. Nevertheless, he had
been happy in Genoa until he met
Nina-Nina. whose mother came from
Spain.
After he met Nina, by his own ac-
count, Angelina was no longer happy.
He realized then how very poor ne
was, and how far away was marriage
with Nina. He worked as hard as he
could. and ate even more sparingly
than was the wont OF his countrymen
of the black bread and garlic, and
drank less of the bitter red wine
Nevertheless, his hoard increased
but slowly. and Angelina grew desper-
ate. He sought Nina. and told her Of
the padrone. He would go To America
She looked at him wonderingly with
her big black eyes, and promised to
wait.
Angelina, having made his adieus
ana stuck one last candle under the
portrait of his patron sain.. went
away to America.
His welcome in this country dis
pleased AngelirD. He liked ice and
snow little, but the jeers OF the people
he liked even less. True, the land
was discovered by one OF his country
men, named Columbus, four hundred
years before. But Angelina did not
know this. and it would not have made
much difference il he had. Those who
had profited by Columbus discovery
disliked Colu-nbus' countrymen, and
Angelina was made to suffer their dis
like.
However, he work u on railroads

the padrone was paid, and then. he

IT was a deed from which no man

Texas is indeed fortunate that her

The State OF Texas, born some sixty
years too late to assist in the revolu-
tionary events of '76, has its own In

tional Fourth Of July, which it shares.
however, with its sister states. This
patriotic state celebration occurred on
April 81, the SEVENTEEN anniversary OF
the fight at the San Jacinto, where 500
Texans gave double their number OF
Mexicans one Of the completest drub-
bings in military history
Every schoolboy knows the story of
San Jacinto as told in the books But
there is In the Southwest a fire-side
tale about ii which deserves to be bet
ter known. 1t is that the night before
the battle, the Mexican general. Santa
2 Ana. sent flag OF truce to the Texan
camp with a summons to surrender
and an offer OF pardon. Grim old Sam
Houston, the father" of Texas, heard
the message and said to one OF his
aids:

there Is the Alamo, and there was the
fight which came before San Jacinto
and turned the blood of every Texan
engaged to fire and his nerves to cold
steel.

bound by no law like those of Their

BRUCE LOSING IN NEW YORK
chanier Seems to Have Won in Lieh
Of Later Returns.

New York, Nov. S.--There is still
agHbt~.as to who is elected lieutenant
governor. Sixteen counties have not
ereported the official count, but on the
face Of the figures in hand the result
seems to favor Lewis Stuyyesant
{ghanler, on the Observation-Disclosures
eace league ticket. Whatever the re-
suit may be the figures will be close,
and until complete official returns
shall have been made by all the coun,
ties now missing, it will be impossible
TO do more than guess at the winner.
The total vote for the state, so far as
returned, fer lieutenant governor, is;
Chanler, 604,29 Bruce, 519,479.
Charles e. Hughes, Republican can
didate for governor. has majority
of about 52,o30.
1t appears that outside of the can
didates for governor and possibly for
lieutenant governor, the Democratic
Wicket is elected.

while expressing the belief that Bruce
would pull out ahead of Chanler.
would give no figures.
