The Heroic Basque and Their Many Des
perate Wara with Invaders.
But these people of Spain, and yet
not Spaniards, who are they? Models of
ancient manners, untainted by time, so
marked, so separate as distinct in
racial characteristics from their near
est neighbors as from the most remote
so rooted to this soil, how shall we
account for them? Velasco, their own
historian, p;ravely;traces their descent di
rectly from Tubal-Cain, says the Cosmo
politan. Humboldt calls them Celt-Iberians.
Theory on theory, each one dis
proving the last with equal learning',
has been advanced to account for this
phenomenon. Nothing now seems
more probable than that they are a
remnant of the troglodytes of the age
of Btone, the same with the men whose
bones are found in the caverns of the
Alps and Pyrenees, !beside those of the
huge animals they-' hunted. In this
case their unwritten history dates from
twenty centuries before the Christian
era.
There are confused Basque traditions
of the coming of the 1'hienicians to
their mountains, and the earliest Ro
man writers have painted in glowing
colors the noble bearing, patriarchal
customs and wise old laws the Phoeni
cians found there. They discovered the
gold and silver mines and vanished
away in their great etar-guided ships.
Wars and dissensions followed; then
silence again till Cojsar came. His
lieutenant Crassus reduced Spain to a
Roman province, but Casar says: "A
few petty people higher up in the
mountains did not make their submit
sion and sent hostages." Roman
poets expand the picture and describe
the Iberians, as they named the
Basques, as objects of terror to all the
world, whom neither hunger, heat nor
cold could conquer, who only gloried
in labors and pei'ils.
Pushed by the Romans, they retreat
ed to their fortified towns; pressed by
siege, they withdrew to the highest
rocks, watched the conflagration of the
towns, and threw themselves, shouting.
from the craigs, to be dashed in pieces
rather than surrender. Mothers
drowned their sons rather than have
them become slaves. The story of their
steady resistance is nearly incredible.
Taken prisoners, they preferred cruci
fixion to subjection, and died singing a
paean of joy. Again and again, after
thinking them conquered, the Roman
prefects encountered fresh outbreaks,
till at last the Cwsars were wise enough
to abandon the effort and secure them
as allies.
As allies, the Basques proved, from
the first, as faithful as they had before
been stubborn., More Iban onee their
un.,onquerable courage turned the for
tune of battles. They went to Sicily
with Hannibal, leaving traces of them
selves in Italy, in names of towns such
as Lrbmo and Orvieto. Later they
joined steadily for two centuries in tho
strife aguuist the Visigoths.1 At
Rencesvalles, In 778, the Franks touched
them, and the flash that followed still
lights the pass and the ulilfs. though
ten contnrlos have prmm iifi f-t-.
Ganelon betraved Roland and the furi
ous Basques fell on Charlemagne's rear
guard and crushed them with rocks In
the defile of bones between Ilgatson
and Altablscar.
"I onee witnessed an iiHecsungi7ut
peculiar spectacle in animal life, but
one which I have never been ablts to
account for," reinuiltud Abraham 1.
Given, of Ilretihum, Tex., according
to the St. Louis (llobc-Dernucrat. "I
was going home Just at nightfall over
a anndy roud, when I noticed directly
In front of me what appeared to be a
long Hue of green ribbon about one
half an inch thick. I stooped to ex
amine It, and to my astonishment,
found that it was a prurofchion of ants,
marching threo or four abreast. In

The Only Way Black Mass Can Be Taken
In the Saginaw Rler.
"You might not think it worthy of
your skill as a ily fisherman," recently
said one who is an expert in the art
himself, "and ordinarily it wouldn't
be, as it seems a trifle vulgar in style,
but if you ever come to fishintr for
black bass in a certain kind of water
you will find that you must sink vour
fly or go without any fish. For in
stance, there isn't a better black bass
fishing water on the continent than
Sagmaw river, Michig-an, or anywhere
the bass are bigger or more ganiey.
But the water is deep and very much
discolored by the bark on the logs of
the endless processions of pine rafts
tnat, go up and down that stream.
Whitefish in the Saginaw river would
be whitefish only in name, for they
would take on the hue of the pine
dyed water, just as trout in the hem
lock-bordered creeks of Pennsylvania
are so dark in color that, compared
with their brothers of the open-woods
streams, they are like a mulatto com
pared with a white man.
"There is only one way ov' flv fishinsr
that black bass can be taken in Sagi
naw river, ana that is the seemingly
unsportsmanlike way I am speaking of.
You must have large and rather gaudy
flies. Three inches above the dropper
put a No. 2 split shot on your leader to
sinu your ilies. They must be sunk al
most as deep in tho water as if you
were fashing with bait. Trail them
toward the surface smartly, and when
one of these big bass strikes a fly,
which will be so often that you will be
astonished, if you don't say that you
never had sport before flv fishinc for
bass, then you are a dilettante sort of a
fisherman, and no mistake.
"A person who thinks he isn't doina-
right by himself if he fishes for black
bass any other way thau with the fly
ought to know there is lly fishing. I
never knew of but two kinds before I
trie.d the Michigan method, and I have
used this third one with great pleasure
and profit in many eastern waters
where the conditions were similar to
those in the Saginaw, and where no
one had ever succeeded in taking any
bass to speak of by the regulation
methods. I had rather make a nice
catch by sinking my flics, even at the
expense of being lookud upon as a
coarse fisherman, than to dawdle all
day on the surface and never get a
rise."

The ordinary tests employed by
aurists for determining the power of
hearing of their patients are in most
cases sufiicieat for all, practical pur
poses; but in some instances indications
of great delicacy arc absolutely neces
sary. Tor this purpose, a "sonometer"
has been Invented by T. P. llawksley.
The instrument consists of two pri
mary coils of unequal winding, a sec
ondary coil, two dry cells, or a thermo
pile supply current, and an adjustable
rheotome. The secondary coil is con
nected to a telephone, and the rela
tive and comparative perception of

An anecdote is related by our Paris
correspondent of Admiral Avelan, who
is in command of the Russian squadron
which has been visiting Toulon.
When, many years ago, he was
cruising in the Baltic, as a
midshipman, among the men on
board his ship was a former captain
of a man-of-war, "broken" for insult
ing an admiral, and reduced to a com
mon seaman. The young officer con
sidered it a sacred duty to treat this
unfortunate man with all the kindness
consistent with the regulations, and to
try everything to start him afresh on
his career. A pardon could be granted
only for an act of bravery.
"Next tiine a storm comes on," Ave
lan said to the ex-captain, "I will drop
into the sea as if by accident. You
will jump in after me, and thus win
3'our epaulettes." This was agreed
upon. Some days later, in a squall,
the cry was heard: "A man overboard."
Avelan had disappeared. The ex
captain jumped over the ship's side, but
he was a bad swimmer, and instead of
rescuing Avelan, he owed his life to
the latter. In due course the com
mander's report reached the czar, and
the ex-captain was restored to his rank.
The captain is now an admiral. The
other day he celebrated the fiftieth an
niversary of his entrance into the
service oy giving a dinner, to which
Admiral Avelan was invited, and in
the course of an after-dinner Bpeech he
publicly thanked his junior colleague
for having opened to him the path of
honor. London News.

When a distinguished man like M.
Orevy refuses to tell his age, surely or
dinary women may be excused for so
purely feminine weakness. By this sub
terfuge the president misled his country
men into believing him to be six years
younger than he was, according to an
anecdote, as follows: "M. tirevy was al
ways very reluctant to tell his age and
openly admitted that reluctance. At a
dinner party given by one of his
friends 111 lHi'l, the future president of
the republic said, with a smile: 'I'eo-
)lo may try as much as they like, they
will never know my real ago.' And,
n fact, when M. ilerold, who was some
time a minister of the third republic,
endeavored to obtain definite particul
ars of M. Urevy soge for a new edition
of 'Vapereau,' M. Urevy persistently re
used to supply them. ' J he archives
of Mountsous-Vaudrey were burnt in
8l:i,' he said, 'and you must do the
test you can. You'll get, 110 informa
tion from me.' As a consequence, all
M. (irevy's biographers gave the year
H13 as that of his birth, while in real
ity ho was born iu lsu7."

The Japanese Bathing Hoar.
In Germany at one o'clock all the
world is taking an after-dinner smoke
or an after-dinner nap, and business,
even banking, is suspended. In Japan
the bathing hour is before supper, and
between five and six o'clock every liv
ing being is nude. The public baths
are crowded. At hom,e children, young
people and old people are in the tub,
getting in or getting out oi the tub,
which is placed in the garden, in court
yards, shops or on tho piazza, without
the least apology of a screen. If a cus
tomer appears the bather talks busi
ness over the water, and in private
families callers are neither abashed nor
embarrassing. In the humble quarters
the tubs are set on the threshold, and
neighbors on opposite sides of the street
gossip, chatter and exchange the most
amiable greetings. The national towel
is nankin blus.

The newest of western mining camps,
the Cochiti camp, in New Mexico, lies
near the ancient Indian village of that
name on the west bank of the Rio
Grande, southwest from Santa Fe.
The mines lie in ledges which cross at
right angles the walls of three can
yons, the Cochiti, the Pino and the
Peralta. Some of the ores already
taken out there are very rich, and, if
the claims as to their abundance are
verified in the continued working,
Cochiti will prove one of the great
gold-bearing districts of the United
States. At the mouth of the Pino, the
central canyon of the three, the hum
ming, brand-new town of Allcrton is
situated. Two smaller town sites,
Kent City nnd Eagle, have been laid
olf, about six miles to the east and to
tho west, respectively. A few frame
and more log houses are interspersed
among the tents which constitute the
greater part of the residence nnd busi
ness structures of the camp, in which
about two thousand people abide.
Saloons and gambling and dance houses
are plentiful and busy, and even the
1 "old timer," with memories of Dead
wood and Leadvillo, admits that the
1 Cochiti has generally the symptoms of
a booming enmp.

Once during the Iron Duke's cam

that flen. Pic ton s dispositions for re
ceiving the assault of Marshal Soult
displeased him. The danger threat
ened from In front, aud the difficulty
lay in delaying' tho attack until Well
ington could effect tho change he
wished, lie was, as usual, equal to
the occasion. Waving his hat in the
air 'he galloped to tho front of a regi
ment as If he meunt to order a churge.
The whole of Picton's line cheered tre
mendously, nnd as the roar died away
Wellington was heard to remark, half
to himself: "Soult Is a cautious com
mander and will not attack in force
without ascertaining the meaning of
these cheers. That will leave time for
the Sixth division to come up, and we
shall bent him." This was exactly
what happened, and Soult sustained a
bloody repulse where he might have
won an easy vlct r.
