him too hard, never lived to come back,
and thus commenced Mirabars life as a
pandit and outlaw.
Many are the stories told of him in
Cuba. One will illustrate: Morning found
him near the city of Sanctus Espiritu
with two mounted companions and with
quite an appetite for breakfast. Riding
up to the gateway of an humble farm-
house, Mirabal dismounted and asked the
old man who stood in the door if it would
be convenient for bine to bave a little
breakfast prepared for himself and com-
panions.
"My wife is dead. I am alone," the old
man replied, "but you are welcome. I
will do the best I can for you."
"Indeed," said Mirabal, "I am sorry.
Let me help you make the coffee," and
he' did so. During the meal which fol-
lowed Mirabal remarked upon the beauty
of two yoked oxen in the yard. "They
are a fine pair, and ought to be profitable
to you."
"They might if they -were mine," the
old man replied, "but they belong to my
rich neighbor on yonder hill above us. I
have to pay him $2 a day for the use of
them."
"Too bad, you will never get rich in
that way. Wbat does your neighbor ask
for the oxen?"
"Five hundred dollars is the price, I
believe."
"Wel1,11• remarked Mirabal, "I am a
stranger th you, but I am going to ina,ke
you a present of the animals." And so
saying he caunted out $600 in gold,
banded it to the astonished man, and re-
quested one of his companions to accom-
pany their host to the house of the weal-
thy Spaniard on the hill. "Buy tbe oxen
and bring back a receipt for the money,"
was hie injunction. The trade Was con-
summated, and the receipt brought back,
'which Mirabal took, and, lifting his hat
to his host, rode away.
Proceeding immediately to the house
on the hill he produced the receipt and
thus addressed the writer of it: "You
will pardon me; my name is Mira) al I
have with me proof that you have just
been paid $600 in gold. I ( (ma wish to
inconvenience you, but I muse have that
amount of money at once. I need it very
badly. I will give you a redeipt for the
amount if you wish." But the planter did
not wait for any receipt. The mention of
lifirabal's nameand the peculiar way in
'Which he toyed with the butt of his re-
volver was quite enough. The money was
handed over, followed by many maledic-
tions, but not until Mirabal and his com-
panion. were out of hearing.

The X Bay Et..
The news comes from Prance that we
are eventually to have X ray oyes. An
exoeptionally 'carped French scientist says
that in time We will be enabled to see al-
most any number of vibrations of light.
Not all of us may be so gifted, how-
ever. The faculty will be connned to a
few, and they will be called xylopes, if
the French professor has his way about
it. To these xylopos the French scientist
soya that lovely women will appear as
skeletons covered with a gelatinous sort
of matter.
What value, then, will the human form
have? There will be no roses, no dimples,
no pretty curves. Grace tvill be typified
by bones—ugly, horrid bones. Laughter
will be ossified, tears will be invisible,
weeping a mere rattling of theteeth. The
streets would be filled with the horror of
lipless, lidless, hairless °roves. The ter-
ror of pervious clothes would vanish.
Modesty would assume new forms and
phases, Or perhaps eve 'would go back to
mediaeval days—to the suits of armor—
and go about the streets clanking and un-
happy.—New York .Tournal.
Curious Industry.
A curious industry has sprung up in
Spain since the decline of silk cinema
there in the production of what is known
as silkworm gut for fishing linos. The
grub is fed on mulberry leaves, as usual
in silk culture, but before it begins to
spin—that is, in May and June—it is
killed by immersion in vinegar. The sub-
stance which would have formed the
cocoon is then drawn out from its body
in the form of a thick silken thread,
which ia treated with chemicals and after-
ward dried. These threads are made up in
bundles of 100, and the Spanish peasants
travel with them along the shores of the
Mediterranean as far as France. The best
quality of thread is round, the flat form
being inferior and ducat unhealthiness in
the worm. The chief seat of this industry
is Murcia.

that moles may be removed be the follow-
ing method: Seat the patient in a clear,

minutes. In three or four weeks the mole
will scab off, and a new skin uome on. If

every village in his empire, telling what he
wanted to do and explaining the advan-

empire from such a tour, and asking the
people to take a vote on the subject and let
him know the result. So the questionwas
submitted to universal suffrage. After a
