eWhy, 1 was so soared I didn't know where

their giving way that had made the fear-'

were recalled, the coffin was nailed up again
and lashed with ropes, and the hot sad
rites were finished without further inci-
dent. That is to say there was no further
incident on deck. It was my duty to go
with a boat's crew some distance from the
ship and sink the body in the sea, and I
can tell you now I did not relish the job at
all. It was duty and that must be done
whether one likes it or not. By this time
the sun had set, the sea was quite rough
and the men to go with Me were badly rat-
tled. At a suitable distance I stopped the
boat, committed the body to the deep and

had not spoken to him s.bout Ruth. When
he came home theyhad borne his diaeontent
and ill -humor in silence ; and when, at the
end of the London eeaeon he proposed to go
broad, they were extremely kind and lib-

thing had eintnged. As Reginald was an
only son, and IVIrs. Bevington was amply

in her son's prolonged stay in Vienna,

was far more considerable.
"Your father tells me," his mother said,
that the Strettoes have a large property
in Somersetshire beside this one."
Reginald looked at the park beyond his
side of the avenue up which they were driv-
ing, and he smiled at his mother's apparent
unconsciousness. She meant it very well,

to do, and at the command the boat went
back, but I can assure you none of us
wanted to go back with it. However,
neoessity.compelled it,and in a few strokes
we were alongside the coffin and had made
it fast with a rope. Then we discovered
that the air in it supported it, the shot at
the foot keepingit alnaost perpendicular in
the sea, and the dancing waves did the rest,
In a minute we had knooked one end of it
in ; a minute later it had sunk out of sight
with a. smothered gurgle, and. my scare wai
over, but the era ts isf it remained for
weeks, and even yet, I lean make myself
uncomfortable thinking about it."
THE HISTORIC CITY OF THEBES.
---
An Important Place ta the Older Tsaya or
creece.
Thebes was the principal city of Bcootia;
in ancient Greecd. Its situation was on
the slopes of Mount Teurnessus, and be.
teen two streams—the Dirce and the
Ismentle„about forty-four miles northeast
feoni•Athens: It, was an importattt city
in the olden days of Greek history. The
city was the birthplace of Dionysius and
Hercules, Tiresias and Amphiou. During
the Persian war Thebes sided with the
Asiatic invader.
When the Peloponnesian War broke out,
Thebes took pert with Sparta, and at its,
close was eager for the des traction of Athens,
but it soon began to quarrel with Sparta.,
The Thebans, ender Epa,minondits, won as
splendid victory at Leuetra(in 371,13.0.),
and for a short time ruled over Greece, but
the supremacy was ended by the death of
Eparainondas at Mealtime (B.C. 362). Dem-
osthertea, by his eloquence, induced the The -
bans to unite in oppoeing Philip of Macedon,
but the battle of Cheronea (338 B. O. )erreshect
the liberties of Greece, ;
After Philip's death the Thebans en.,
deevored to regain their freedom, but the.
city wee taken by Alexander, leveled to,
the green& and the whole population, eold
into alaverv (13.0.330). It was rebuilt iii 310
by Cassenar, and the walls laid by him
were traced in 1888 by E.Eabrieine, Dern.'

From the various stricken districts
throughout Greece reports aye coming in
slowly, but sufficient information has been
received to justify the statement that at
least 500 persons have lost their lives either
directly through earthquakes or from
subsequent exposure. Terrible suffering,
among the homeless is reported from all
stricken districts, the inhabitants being
greatly in need of food, clothing, medicines,
etc. The supply of tentsprovided is wholly
inadequate to the needs of the shelterless'
people. The few buildings left standing
are so badly shaken that they are likely to
tumble down any minute, and are conse-
quently not available as places of refuge.
The amount of damage to property cannot
be estimated.
