Wilkesboro last week. Two nights
before he died the nurse who was
watching him wept to sleep and when
he awoke Wiles could not be tound

finally found lying on the grass in the
yard, How long he had been out
there no one knows, but it is supposed

suffering from typhoid tever frequently

larceny. A man was accused of
stealing several thousand amperes
of electricity by tapping a light

appeal, ruled that only a mova-

stolen, which electricity was not,

Jews Anthropologically Considered.
We continually hear of the Israel-
itish race. It is spoken of ag the
most homogeneous of races, and the
most refractory. But it is strongly
diverse. Anthropologists are accus-
tomed to divide it into two parts
well distinguished — the dolicho-
cephalic and the brachycephalic. To

Jews; the Spanish and Portuguese
Jews, and even the larger part of the
Jews of Italy and southern France,
To the second belong the Askenazim
Jews—that is to say, the Polish, Rus-
sian and German Jews. In Africa
we find agricultural and nomadic

the Berbers near Setif, from Guelma
and Biskra to the frontiers of Ma-
rocco. They travel in caravans to
Timbuktu, and some of their tribes
upon the confines of the Sahara are
black, as for instance the Dagga-
tomis, as are also the Falachas Jews
of Abyssinia. In India white Jews
are found in Bombay and black
Jews in Cochin. As to the Jews in
China, they are not only allied to
the Chinese who surround them,
but they have even adopted their
customs and the religion of Confu-
cius. It is well known that in Italy
they speak Italian, as in France they
speak French and in Germany Ger-

man. A language is learned and
spoken by two peoples which have
no other ‘point of contact.—Monist.
