whv Hlndoos Don't Go Mad.

Why are there so few lunatic asy-
lums and so small a proportion Of In
sane persons In India? That is a ques-
ton which many a traveller has won
deringly asked. The Hindoos regulate
their lives entirely i'm accordance with
their rellgion-that is, their working,
eating, sleeping, as we'll as what we
usually regard as our 'llfe" in the re-
ligious sense of the word. Everything
Is arranged for them, and they follow
the rules now just as they did 1000
years ago This constant observance
Of the same rules for twenty centuries
has nodded the brains of the race into
one shape, as 1t were, and, although
their rites are queer enough, yet there
Is but an occasional example of that
striking deviation from the common
which is called insanity in countries
Inhabited by the white race. They are
C,talists too. With them il is case
Of what is to he will be" carried to
the extreme. iris has in time given
them the powce to take all things
calmly and so freed them from the

BURRIS. AT his residence in Sacra-
mento, at II O'Clock Friday night,
November IL, 1910 D. H. Burris,
aged, 81 years, 6 months and l6
days.
Dock Harris Burris was born in Vol
cano, Amador county, April 81, 1856,
and shortly after his family returned
to lone Valley, their former home,
and here Mr. Burris had resided,
practically. all his life. He chose the
occupation of farmer for his life
work, and as such he made a sue
cess, as the fine farm in Jackson
Valley proves. He was married at
Buena Vista, in early life, to Rosie
Mullen, and five children, three girls
and two boys. came to bless their
union. Some time ago Mr. Burris dis
covered there was something troubling
his side, and he consulted physicians
with only temporary relief, until in
early summer it was decided that an
operation was necessary, SO he leased
his farm and removed to Sacramento.
Here surgical examination revealed
the fact that he had a humorous
growth on the spleen, and the sur
geons decided that to remove it would
cause instant death. The remains of
Mr. Burris were brought from Sacra-
mento Sunday afternoon, accompanied
by family and friends, and the inter
ment took place in lone cemetery. the

a diamond necklace was possessed
by Nine Godfrey de ST. Hilare, the
wife Of the famous French naturalist.
1t was one OF tbs chiefest of her "con-
tentmCnts," as Hindoo women aptly
term their jewels. One day madame
missed her necklace. There was q ter
rible turmoil in the h>use, and all the
servants down to the foolish fat soul
Ion were suspected, but in turn proved
their Innocence. At last Il was remem-
Dered that NJ. de st. HilaiIe had q pet
monkey, and on search being made
in the "glory hole" of the quadrumane
the precious bauble was discovered hid
den away with a white satin shoe, sew
eral cigar ends, pencil case and de.
composed apple. The renowned nat,
pfalist calmly observed that he had
frequently seen the monkey playing
with the necklace. "Why did you not
take it from him?' Indignantly asked
his spouse. II thought it belonged to
him." replied NJ. de st. Hilaire. He ev-
identity thought there was nothing un-
natural in an ape possessing a diamond
necklace as his personal property.

The Monasteries of Tibet.

Every Tibetan family is compelled
to devote It's frstborn male child to
monastic life. Soon after his birth
the child is taken to Buddhist mon
astery to be brought up and trained in
priestly mysteries. At about the age
of eight he joins one of the caravans
which travel to Lassa. There he is at
tached to one of the local monasteries,
where he remains as novice until he
is fifteen, learning to read the sacred
books and perform the religious rites
of his faith. The firstborn son, being
thus sent into the church, as we
should say in this country, the second
becomes the head of the family
and marries. Unlike some other semi
civilized races, these young Tibetans
have the right of choosing their own
wives. Nor can Tibetan girl be
married off by her parents without her
own consent. The curious custom in
regard to the eldest SONS results of
course, in nearly every Tibetan family
acquiring the odor of sanctity, num-

Slow but InexorabIe Justice.

In October, 1900, Pietro Giaconi and
Marie Bonelli were tried at Rome on
a charge of sextupie murder by poi
soning committed thirty-one years be-
fore. In England Eugene Aram was
hanged for the murder of Clarke four
teen years after the offenSe. A man
named Horne was executed for the
murder of his child In the eighteenth
century no less than thirty-fve years
after the offense. There is also the
well known case Of Governor Wall,
who was executed in 1902 for MUIR
der committed in 1882. Sherward was
hanged at Norwich for the murder of
his wife after lapse of twenty years.
But Sir Fitzjames Stephens recalls
what is the most remarkable case of
all. He prosecuted as counsel for the
crown in 1868 a man who was charged
with stealing a leaf from parish reg
lister sixty years before-that isS in
1903. In this case the prisoner was
acquitted.-London Standard.

a Curious Tran.

A curious labyrinth in which ele-
plants are captured alive is to be seen
near Ayuthia, formerly the capital OF
Siam. The labyrinth is formed Of
double row of immense tree trunks
set firmly in the ground, the space be-
tween them gradually narrowing.
Where it begins, at the edge Of the
forest, the opening Of the labyrinth is
more than a mile wide, but as it ap.
proaches Ayuthia it becomes so mar
now that the elephants cannot turn
around. Suspecting no danger, the
wild elephant enters the broad open
ing at the forest end, lured on by q
tame elephant The gradual narrow
ing of the boundaries is not observed
until the elephant finds himself il
close quarters. Having reached the
end of the labyrinth, the tame elephant
is allowed to pass through a gate,
while men lying in wait slip shackles
over the feet of the captives. The
sport is a dangerous one. for the en-.
ragged elephants sometimes crush the
hunters under their feet.
Amador ledger., 1910-11-25

Although bull batting was cruel
pastime, it was also a fulfilling of the
law, for formerly no butcher was al
lowed to offer for sale the flesh of any
bull that had not been baited. The
goading of the animal in a fury was
supposed to have some influence on the
flesh. In a similar belief the flesh Of a
hunted hare was thought to be superior
in flavor to that Of one that had been
shot, and present of "a hunted hare"
was considered to be a special compli-
ment. In the records of the corpora
ton of Leicester, England the follow
ing order appears: "At common hall,
held on Thursday before st. Simon and
st. Jude, 1867, no butcher to kill bull
till baited'" At Winchester it was or
dered (eign of Henry VIII "that
from hensforth Their shall be no bull
stake set before any mayors dore to

Gender of the Sword.

Among the many curious notions OBJ
tanning among the different races us
ing the sword may be noted the gen
der of the weapon. In the north of
Europe it was either masculine, as in
Britain, or neuter, as in Germany,
while in the south it was uniformly
feminine. Its force and cruelty APP
pealed to the northern mind. Its grace
and elegance attracted the warriors
of the sunny south. 1t typified to the
one strength, to the other dignity.
