ITALIAN SIGN LANGUAGE.

Dumas Given; an Account of a conversa-
linu Carried (In in His Presence. ‘
‘ As‘illustrating the almost incredible
extent which the Italians—the Sicil-
ians especially—can cemmunicate- with
gestures, grimaces, and what'is called
the sign language generally, Alexandre
Dumas relates that he was one evening
in the theater at Palermo, with a gen-
tleman of that city named Arami, when
his attention was attracted to what ap-
peared to be, and in fact were, conver-
sations carried on between the boxes
and the orchestra. Presently Dumas’
companion recognized an acquaintance
on the other side of the house, and be-
gan exchanging with him eager notions
of the hands and eyes. When it ended,
Dumas begged to know what had been
said, and was informed that the gentle-
man was a friend of Signor Arami who
had been away for three years. “He
told me,” said Signor Arami, “that he
had been married in Naples, and then
had traveled for three years with his
wife in Austria and “France; that a
daughter was. born and died; and that

he had arrived by steamboat yesterday;

but could not bring his wife to the
opeJa with him because she had suf-
.'e1ed so much from seasickness as to
unable to come.” Dumas was so as-
torzished that he went privately and
verified this account; and he adds other
equally long and complicated COQVcrsa-
:.ons which came under his notice at
zyracus'e and Naples.

once existed in their locality. The oth.

such undesirable neighbors, and at a

A Curious Custom.

A curious marriage custom obtains
in the island of Himla, just opposite
the island of Rhodes. The Greeks, by
whom it is peopled, earn their living
by the sponge fishery. No girl in this
island is allowed to marry until she
has brought up a certain number of
sponges, which must be taken from a
certain de;:h. In some of the other
Greek islands this demonstration of
ability is required of the men, and if
there are several suitors for the hand
of a 'maiden, her father bestows her
on the man who can dive best and
bring up the largest number or
sponges.

Clevedon. ,

Back in 1880 a syndicate of English
capitalists cenceived the idea that a
town could be established at the mouth
of the Boise Brule river which, in time,

.would‘compete with the city of Super-
ior, and attract much of the lake trafa

do. Where the Brule river flows into
Lake Superior the land was cleared
and a town site mapped out. Mechanics
:nd builders of all kinds were em-
ployed with a lavish hand, and houses
and buildings grew up almost in a
night. Such quantities of money were
poured into the scheme that Clevedon
soon attracted attention from the out-
side world, and numerous families
came to .the place, bought lots, and
put up, homes. .

In a year Clevedon had a population

' of about 1,100 people, and seemed de-

But the tide of lake commerce re-
fused to sweep upon Clevedon. It
kept on moving toward Duluth and

Superior just as it had before the ad- .

vent of the new city. Then the pop:
ulation began to fade away. Cottage
after cottage was deserted, and the
next calamity was the collapse of the
fund behind the syndicate.

By 1890 it was as dead as any place
could be. Every one had left. The
