THE ANCIENT lNCAS.


3Aey Knew Neither Idleness NoI
Riches Nor Poverty.
The flocks of llamas belonged to the
Sun and the Inca. 1t was death to
kill one. At certain seasons of the
year they were collected from the hills
and shorn. Large numbers were sent
to supply food for the court and to De
used at the religious festivals and sac
rifces. Male llamas only were killed
The wool belonged to the Inca and
was stored in the government deposl-
tories and dealt out according as the
peoples wants required. In this way
they were provided with warm CLOTH
ing. When they had worked up enough
wool into clothing for themselves they
were then employed in working up
material for the Inca. The distribu-
ton Of the wool and superintendent
Of its manufacture were in the hands
of officers appointed for the purpose.
No one was allowed to be idle. Idle
ness was a crime and was severely
punished.
All the mines belonged to the Inca
and were worked for his benefit. The
various employments were usually in
the hands of a few and became heredi-
tary. What the father was, that the
son became A great part of the agri-
cultural products was stored in grana-
ries scattered UP and down the coun-
try and was dealt out to the people as
required. 1t will thus be seen that
there was no chance for a man to be-
come rich, neither could he become
poor. The spirit of speculation had no
existence there.-Chambers' Journal.

into Death of Homeless Woman.

Under strict secrecy, Bellevue Hospital authori-
ties began TO investigate the death OF Maggie Bren-
nan. a homeless woman OF thirty-three years, who
died in the alcoholic ward about 1:25 o'clock Tues
day afternoon after being in the hospital six hours
and twenty-five minutes without medical attend

nurses in the ward. While Miss Hanley, the night
nurse who received the woman into the ward. and
Miss Hengarten. the day nurse. who received her
from Miss Haney explained last night that it was
each others fault. the authorities were inclined to
blame the police OF the Mercer street station for
locking the woman up overnight and bringing her
10 the hospital when she was dying. Incidentally,
the hospital authorities forgot TO inform the cor
oners Office of the death and the cause. Up 70 IL

woman had been received at the coroners Office.
