Whale Sharks

While whales are the largest Of ma

almost as gigantic size. The largest
of true fishes are found among the
sharks and the largest Of these for
midahe fishes are the whale sharks
These huge fish occur in the waters of
India. japan. South America. Panama,
California and the West Indies. The
nose is very broad and blunt and the
mouth. although very wide, is armed
only with minute teeth. 1t is dark
colored creature. marked with small.
whitish spots and is perfectly harmless
to man, feeding exclusively on small

QUEER BURIAL SERVICE.
How ALBANIAN Islanders Protect Their
Dead From Evil Spirits.

Strange is the burial service among
the ALBANIAN islanders. 1t is the GUS
tom of the islanders to drop the bodies
of their parents into the sea at the end
of ropes and leave them there until
nothing remains but the bones. which
they then gather and hang from the
roofs Of their huts.
1t is a common custom for relative
to sit by the hour and watch the bones
have of showing their love and respect.
The bodies are treated in this fash
ion so that the evil spirits cannot tease
and pinch them. All that Is left are
the dried bones. and these are placed
high so that if the evil spirits wander
into the huts they will have a hard
time to find them. If a bone is carried
away it means some bad spirit has
seized it, and this means that some
terrible calamity will befall the fam
lily.
in the Katanga district of central
Africa when a chief and his wife dies
there is great feasting and celebrating.
Some of these festivals last three or
four days. After the bodies are laid
to rest with dancing and rejoicing
because they are going to rule over
q higher sphere their relatives and
friends do not depart until they leave
one or more chairs and a supply OF
clothes. This is done because the souls
are expected to come out and wander
about their aves.-Chicago Tribune.

Moving Pictures in Japan.

The japanese take the moving pic
ture with the seriousness betting the
national character. They enjoy it thor
oughly, but they like it best when it
makes them sad. The favorite theme
is the allegorical play that represents
the warrior fighting for righteousness.
Next in popularity comes the pathetic
picture The strictly educational film
is also popular, and there is always
applause for good scenery. But the
love story is never represented in the
japanese moving picture. 1t would be
an outrage to modesty and violation
of decency and therefore intolerable.
Pictures derogatory to the dignity of
officials and of policemen are forbid
den, as we'll as those likely to instill
revolutionary ideas in the minds of the
young.

Solitary Confinement.

The punishment which replaced the
death penalty in Italy-namely. life I'M
prisonment with solitary confinement
is considered to be much worse than
death itself. Murderers sentenced to
life imprisonment invoke death to end
their sufferings. Isolation, complete
in the very sense of the word-en-
forced idleness, lack of exercise and
sufficient food and continual surveil-
lance in a cell so small as to almost
render any movement impossible-such
is the fate of a murderer in Italy. Sol
itary confinement lasts for five long
wears. sometimes for ten. but convlcts
can hardly bear it for more than six
months. Invariably they are insane
long before the term expires. and Of
ten they commit suicide. The fear OF
solitary confinement acts as proven
five to murder as much as and perhaps
much more than that of capital pun
ishment 1t is quite true that the
cases of murder have not diminished
TO any great extent in Italy since the
abolition of the death penalty; but, on
the other hand, they have not III
creased.-Chicago News.

is one which Montague relates as hav-

men were condemned to death for MUIR
der. The judges were then Informed
by the officers of an inferior court that
certain persons in their custody had
confessed themselves guilty of the
murder in question and had told so
circumstantial tale that the fact was
placed beyond all doubt. Nevertheless
it was deemed so bad a precedent TO

German Justice.

A curious illustra ton of the princi-
pie of responsibility abroad is afford
ed by a civil damage suit growing out
of the breaking of plate glass win
dow in German town. A witness had
testified as follows
"As | was passing down the street
in front of the window ! saw a big
stone come whirling through the air.
| did not know whence it came. l
saw it coming through the air. and l
had Just time enough to dodge to save
myself from being hit by it,"
The witness was sharply questioned
upon the point whether the stone that
broke the window would have struck
him had he not lodged it. He was
then dismissed. Eventually the deci-
sion of the magistrate was this:
"Inasmuch as if the witness had not
unfortunately ducked. his head the
glass would not have been struck by
the stone, he is hereby adjudsed re-

MEXICAN BRlGANDS.
Pleasant Sort of People That Merely
Robbed Travellers.

81 was once for some weeks at q
sugar plantation, near a small provin-
cial town in Mexico" wrote the late
Mr. Labouchere In 1879. "In the town
lived a brigand. He was highly es-
teemed by his nelghbors. and passed
many pleasant evening with him and
his family. His daughter was a beau
ty. and this estimable parent was
amassing a little fortune for her.
His habit was to ride at night to
the road between Mexico and Vera
Cruz with two or three associates and
to levy contributions on the diligence.
When l left the. town | wanted to
strike this road, and l went with him
and his friends. We reached it at
about 6 in the morning. . Having par
taken of chocolate, the brigands post
ed themselves behind some rocks, and
l looked on. Soon the. diligence was
seen approaching. The brigands emerg-
ed, the coachman stopped, the passen-
gers were requested to descend and
were politely eased of their money.
THE passengers then took their
places again in the coach. and it drove
off. while the brigands courteously
bowed to them. So honest were they
in their peculiar way that they wished
me to take my share in the spoil, but
this. of course, my standard of moral
ity being different from theirs. l de-
clined, and ( wished them goodby.
Riding on to Peucla / dined at a
table d'hote that evening with the de-
spoiled travellers and was greatly
amused to hear them recount the val
orous manner in which they had de-
Tended themselves and how they at
last had to succumb to numbers"
