OF the strange customs of the Bed

Cromer's report on Egypt and the Su-
dan. II a man kills another in time of
peace the relatives of the murdered
man. beginning from the father to the
fifth generation, have the right TO re-
venge or pardon against the receipt OF
'blOod money" This latter Is fixed at
forty-one camels. II the murdered
mar was of the same tribe as the muir
derer the latter or his neal relatives
have to give a girl in marriage TO one
of the victims relatives without re-
celving the usual dowry. When she

The head waiter of a famous New
York restaurant said the other day:
"A few nights ago, after having
charge of n very large dinner, I started
for home. My way led me through
West Seventy-second street. where,
late as it was. l saw n little girl onl7
a few years old sitting on the lower
step of a private stoop, crying anil
sobbing as if her heart would break.
I stopped TO ask her what was the
matter, and she told me that she hal
got lost uptown. that she knew wher,
she lived - in Sixteenth street an |
that If she only had car fare she coul
get back there. Being in a hurry, I
gave her a quarter and started to pass
on.
THE moment the kid got the coin
she jumped up and ran away around
the corner like lightning. / never be-
fore saw any n disappear so quickly.
1t dawned on me at nee that | had
been dead easy or course she was
simply a we'll trained little actress and
had taken the quarter to her father or
mother, who was in hiding near by.
It's an outrageous shame that a little
child should be trained up In that
way."-New York Post.
