Adams First Wife.

Whether Lilith was ono of the female
creations of chapter one or a demon or
some thing between the ,two.-sho was.
considered matrimoninlly, a conlplete
failure. She was expelled after living
with Adam for one hundred and thirty
years, and subsequently became the
wife OF Satan. by whom she. was the
mother OF the Jinns, so familiar in
Persian fairy lore.
The emphatic remark OF Adam when
he first saw Eve. .This Ia now bone of
my bones and flesh OF my flesh"
makes. It Ia suggested a comparison
between Eve and the beautiful but
nendlike Lilith not complimentary to
the latter, while the reference on the
birth of Seth to him as Adams son
lin his own likeness after his Image"
conveys a painful hint of the unoanny
offspring born to Adam and I4ilith.
Perhaps in revenge for this Lilith---
the name occurs translated might
monster" in Isaiah xxxlv.---hecamei the
sworn foe OF little children, whom she
was wont to strangle with one OF her
glorious golden hairs unless theswatch-
fulness of their mothers drove her
away, IT has Indeed been gravely sug-
gested by an etymologlst greatly OAR
ing that our word "lullRhy" Is simply
u corruption OF 'Itlla. abi.s (Lilith,
tnvaunt!. which mothers ana nurses
would Groom over the cradles ar write
on the doorpoAt,=-at. Janaes Gazette.

he has been forced to slow up little;
the load he had became too heavy. His
great ambition was to consolidate the
Tennessee Coal and Iron, the Republic
Iron and Steel, and the Sloss. Sheffield
into one company and eventually sell
them to the United States Steel Cor
poration. a statement credited to the
younger Gates made some months ago,
was taken to show that they had
borrowed s50,00o.o00 abroad on Tennes-
see Coal and Iron for use In their
promotion scheme. Another statement
made by partner this week was to
the effect that the house had been
liquidating since last December.
Had we told of our plans to go out
LOT business in December, said one of
the partners. Wall Street would have
broken US; we had too many loans to
liquidate"
John W. Gates has sold his seat in
the Chicago Board of Trade. AS q
grain trader his success was varie-
gated. His moderate-aized plays made
Inn money, but the big ones invariably
,ost. His attempt to ruin acorn deal
in 1902 was fiasco. and his wheat
deal two years later Is said to have
cost him sl.So0.000. Part of his i'll
luck in grains came from staying in
the market too long and from not hav-
Ing the right kind of brokers. The
first specializing of consequence John
W. Gates ever did was in grains, and
that was prior to his advent into the
lWire business.
