With the double purpose of protecting the long suffering Jews of the Balkan States and of averting; the very pres. ent peril of the Immigration into the United States of a horde of paupers. Secretary Hay has adopted the unusual course of appealing to the powers of Europe to force one of their children to observe the obligations of humanity In the case of' the Jews. The appeal takeathe form of a State paper, re markable in several respects, which has been dispatched in identical form to every ambassador and minister of the United States residing in one of the countries of Europe which were parties to the famous Berlin treaty of 1878, namely. Great Britain, France, Germany, Russia, Italy, Austria and Turkey, marking the termination of the Turko-Russian war and the crea tion by the direct act of the powers of the independent Balkan States. Be cause the powers are tnus responsi ble for the existence of Ron ma nia, the culprit in this case, the Secretary of State has directed the note to them in the hope that they will brings tbis government to a sense of its duties towards civilization at large as well as to cause it to amelio rate the frightful condition of the Roumanian Jews. In a measure this action by the Department of State may be traced to numerous petitions from Jewish societies and humani tarians generally, . as well as to the warnings of publicists respecting tbe growing dangers of the immigration of degenerates. The document, which is dated Au gust 11th, says in part: The condition of a large class of in habitants of Roumania has for many years been a source of grave concern to the United States. I refer to the Roumanian Jewr. numbering some 400,000. Long ago, while the Danu bian principalities labored under op pressive conditions which only war and a general action of the European powers sufficed to end, the persecution of the indigenous Jews under Turk ish rule called forth in 1873 the strong remonstrance of the United States. The treaty of Berlin was hailed for a cure for the wrong, in view of the express, provisions of its forty fourth article, prescribing that in Roumania the differences of reli gious creeds and confessions shall not be alleged against any person s a ground for exclusion or incapacity in matters relating to the enjoyment of civil and political rights, admission to public employments, functions and honors, or the exercise of the various professions and industries in any lo cality whatsoever. "With the lapse ot time these just prescriptions have been rendered nug atory in great part as regards the na tive Jews by the legislation and muni cipal regulations of Roumania. Start ing from the arbitrary, controvertible premise that the native Jews of Rou mania domiciled there for centuries are aliens not subject to foreign pro tection, the ability of tnejewio earn even the scauty metfns of existence that suffice for a frugal race has been contracted by degrees until nearly every opportunity to gain a livelihood U denied, and until the helpless pov erty of tbe Jew has constrained an exodus of such proportion! as to cause general concern. "The political, disabilities of the Jews In Roumania, their exclusion from the public service and the learned professions, the limitations of their civil rightF, and the imposition upon them of exceptional taxes, involving as they do wrongs repugnant to the moral sense of liberal modern peoples, are not so-directly in point for my present purpose as the public acts which attack tbe inherent right of a man as a bread-winner in the ways of agricul ture and trade. The Jews are pro hibited from owning land, or even from cultivating it as common la borers. They are debarred from re siding in the rural districts. Many branches of petty trade and manual production are closed to them in the over-crowded cities, where they are forced to dwell and engage, against fearful odds, in the desperate struggle for existence, uven as oruiutj sans or hired laborers they may only find employment in the proportion oi j-fc n A i1Tl n,AlAtiH uliftn' to tWO ROU- - I The Electric Eel ta Very Old. Certain upecies of electric fishes have been known from very early times. Oc casionally we find people ascribing mysterious powers to them both of good and evil. It is certain that the Abyssinians knew an electric eel and nsed it "as a remedy for nervous dis eases," and the Hindoos and other na tions of the east In times past were ,also conscious of its powers. Hum boldt describes an old method of cap turing this eel practiced by the East Indians, which consisted In driving horses into waters Inhabited by the eel and allowing the eels to exhaust themselves by attacking the horses with their electric organs, when they were "easily harpooned by the Indi ans," but subsequent travelers In the tame parts where Humboldt says the custom was practiced have denied the report, and it is now not generally be lieved. However, tho electric eel has been known to those people for centu ries. Wanted to Watch Them.

A wealthy woman named Silva died at Lisbon and left her entire property to a rooster. She was a fervid spirit ualist, a believer In the transmigration of souls, and imagined that the soul of her dead husband had entered the rooster.

In ehorf, by the cumulative effect of suc cessive restrictions the Jews of Rou mania have become reduced to a state of wretched misery. Shut out from nearly every avenue of self-support which is open to the poor of other lands, and around down by poverty as the natural result of their discrimi natory treatment, they are rendered incipabloof lifting themselves from the -.iiforced degradation they endure. "Putting together the facts now painfully brought home to this govern ment during tho past lew years, ium many of the inhabitants of Roumania htp being forced, by artiBcially ad verse discriminations to quit their na tive country ; that the hospitable asy lum offered by this country is almost the only refuge left to them; that they coaie hither unfitted, by the condittons of tbeir exile to take part in the new life of the land under circumstances either profitable to themselves or bene flaal to the community; and that they are objects of charity from the outset and for a long time, the right of remon strance against the acts of the Rouman- i.n onwern mantis clear IV esiaouBueu iu favor of this government. Whether consciously and of purpose or not these helpless people, burdened and spurned by their native land, are forc ed by the sovereign power of Rou mania upon the charity of the United States. This government cannot be a tacit party to such an international wrong. It ia constrained to protest against the treatment to which the Jews of Roumania are subjected, not alone because it has unimpeachable nri tn vamonstrate against the re- ...it.-t minrv ta itself, but in the name of humanity. The United State, may not authoritatively appeal to the stipulations of the treaty of Berlin .to which It was not and cannot become a signatory, but it does earnestly appeal to tbe principles contained therein, because they are the principles oi in ternational law and eternal ja". advocating the broad toleration which that solemn compact enjoins ana standing ready to lend its moral sup port to the fulfillment thereof by its co-algnatorier, for the act of Roumania itself has effectively joined the United States to them as an interested party in this regard."

As soon as the set of teeth is complete, however, a wrinkle! begins to appear on the upper edge of the lower eyelid, and a new wrinkle Is added each year, so that to get at the age of a horse more than eight years old you must figure the teeth plus the wrinkles."

Acrimony was. not wanting for a time in the Democratic 8tate Convention in Tre mont Temple to-day, but in the end harmony was restored and the State ticket was j enthusiastically greeted, withWm. A. Gaston, of Boston, for Governor, f It might be said that in naming Col. Gaston to .head the ticket, precedent was shattered, inasmuch as he was nominated and then given a platform of his own dictation. Not nnlike the famous conventions of 1896 and 1900. the fight was over the national Issues on the platform. The test of strength was between Colonel Gaston on the one hand and George Fred. Williams, once the stalwart leader of the silver Democrat?, on the other. In this battle Mr. Williams was utterly routed, with the predicted result that he is shorn! of all power of leadership. The platform adopted is a repudiation of the Kansas City platform, for Mr. Gaston refused to be the nominee if in any way the declaration of princi ples could be construed to endorse those things moBt prominently advocated! by the party in the last two national campaigns. Mr. Williams was chairman of the committee: on resolutions and at first proposed the indorsement of the Kan sas City platform. In deference to the protests of Jcsiah Quincy, a mem ber of the committee, speaking for Colonel Gaston, he consented to waive tbe endorsement and proposed planks in which! the national questions of trusts, monopolies and corporations were dealt with in strong language. The convention opened with trouble brewing, j It came soon after Mr. Gas ton's nomination, when the matter of nlatform was broueht up. The battle from the floor was one of bitter words, during which delegatea objecting to Mr. William's sarcastic references to plants in the last platform, which he said were placed there at Mr. Gaston's solicitation, hissed and cried him down. Throughout the tumult the- speaker exultantly aurveyed the throng and when order was restored concluded his speech, to be hissed again aa he sat down. The minority report was ut terly defeated. . Immediately thereafter Mr. Hamlin taking tbe platform asked that Mr. Gaston's nomination be made unani mous which was done amid cheers and the convention adjourned. The platform declares that the re neal of all tariff duties unon articles controlled by trusts is the one simple and practical remedy which will limit the exactions of monopoly. It de mands free coal,' free iron ore, free hides and free wool, and reciprocity with Cuba and Canada. Arbitration in labor disputes ia favored, opposition to imperialism is affirmed, and subsi dies to favored interests whether on land or f sea are opposed, stringent laws to prevent the use of the patron age of t corporations . to influence legislation are favored. Original. In 1S45 a Mexican family lived near what is now Los Angeles, CaL Don Miguel Caro, the father, was a descend ant cf one of( the j conquerors who married Aztecs and remained in the country. He had one daughter, a girl so attractive that she had many suit ors, but there was an attachment from childhood between her and young Juan Estrella which kept her from being in terested in any one else. When Don Miguel realized that 'bis daughter had become a woman and her heart was Ir revocably given to Juan, he was beside himself with anger, for . Juan was without fortune, and there were others of means who would gladly marry the lovely Donna Maria. Don Miguel for bade Juan the house. The boy upon his promise not to attempt to see Maria again was permitted to bid her adieu. "I am going away, Maria," he said, "since I cannot live near you and not . see you." i "Go, Juan, make a fortune and come back. I will wait for you." "There are no fortunes to be made on this coast," he said,' "and I am go ing northward, where Jthe country is new and there is still lesB chance. Nev ertheless should I ever.be able to give you a home I will come hack, and if you are not married" i "I shall not be married,? said the girl. She was young and full of hope. All things looked possible to her. .

One of the1 ways of making money for the poor was this: The privilege of 'dancing with any lady could be obtained only by the man who would pay the highest price for the honor. At the ball given by Don Miguel in the winter of 1851 there was more spirited bidding for a dance with Donna Maria than any other laay. Clavergaro soon outstripped all other bidders, offering 500 Spanish dollars, and was about to lead the girl forth When a voice from behind the crowd cried: I ' ' . ; "I bid a thousand dollars!" All turned' to see who was the new bidder, and a man with grizzly gray hair and beard stepped forward. No one seemed ! to know him, and Don Miguel wondered at his presumption in coming to the ball uninvited. But since the poor were to be benefited he held his peace, ; i ; " "Fifteen hundred!" said Clavergaro. "Ten thousand!" from the stranger. "Twenty thousand r'. from Claver garo. ; "A hundred thousand!" cried the stranger. "This is absurd," said Clavergaro. "It is easy to bid such a sum, but can the money be paid?" "I have it at the tavern." "That Is not here," said Clavergaro. All looked at Don Miguel for a de cision. I ' "Go and bring it," he said. The stranger left the house, and at once the silence was broken by a babel of voices expressing wOnder as to who be was and whence he came, the men betting as to whether he would bring the moneyj The tavertt was not far, and the stranger soon returned. The guests opened a way before him to where Don Miguel was standing wait ing with his daughter and Clavergaro. The stranger paused, and Don Miguel asked: "Where is the inoney?" "It is coming, senpr." "Do you 'require assistance to carry bank bills?" t. "It is gold, senor." Two servants came through the crowd, each bearing a number of bags, which they deposited before Don Mi guel. The stranger opened one of the bags and, thrusting In his hand, drew it out full of gold dust "What impudence," exclaimed Cla yergaro, "to attempt to palm off brass filings for gold!'! ! "You, Senor Clavergaro," replied Don Miguel, "who come from the far south, are not used to this kind of money, which has made its way among us since the gold discoveries in Califor nia. Perhaps the stranger is one of those men who have suddenly made money in the mines. Who are you, Benor?" j ! The stranger pulled off a wig and beard. "I am Juan Estrella," he said. There were suppressed expressions tf wonder among the guests, and Don na Maria trembled. "I did not know what I should find here," continued Juan, looking at Ma ria. "Therefore I preferred not to be known till I should discover what had occurred In my absence. If your daugh ter is unmarried and you son are in clined to marry her to, the wealthiest suitor, I am ready to show my hand with the others." , Juan was indeed one of the gold kings who sprang up at the time so suddenly in California and was worth many times the sum he gave to the ipoor for the privilege of dancing with1 ihis sweetheart The charity ball was turned into the celebration of a be-' trothaL j " ARTHUR HUNTINGTON.

To his utter amazement and horror he had shot his brother, who fell, to the ground and died almost instantly. The surviving brother is protrasted with grief. Thomas leaves a wife and several chil dren. Charlie is also married. f Corrected Regularly by Wilmington Produce (commission marc nanus prices repnwviiuuK those paid for produce consumed to Commis sion Merchants. I OOTJNTBY PRODUCE.
