Perhaps nothing about Italian gardens strikes us so wonderful as ( he arbor walks or pergolas , where nature seems so absolutely docile ( o the hand of man. The dcsiie is , says the Philadelphia Ledger , to make a dense shade a retreat where one can shut out * the hot sun , and to create this trees of a great many dill'erent sorts have been planted close to gether , and their branches so closely interwoven that they form a complete trellis on the twosides arid above , so that cedar , cypress , orange and lemon trees mingle their foliage , all seeming to bt lighted up by the pale golden globes of the fruit. With us the merest twigs ofswell trees would be sup pjsod to have a stubborn imlivid iality , rendering it impossible to { rain . ( hem ( o take ( he place of vinos. In Italy for centuries i'very thing has been done to ere ate -a grateful shade at noon where one can rest or sleep and * leave lh world ntside to the ci t cadas that , when thousands of Them take voice together at once , make a rafhi > r K < > thiig ! suund.

' Wlilch Menus Not DluollBh Green in Color , But Freshly Caught Arc Now in Mixrkot nt Now York. "Green bluefish , " read a sign outside of a flshmarket , but that , ( he marketman said , did not mean a new speoiett of bluefish , of a green color ; i ( meant simply new ly caught bluefish , not bluefish from cold storage , says the New York Hun. "Formerly , " ( he market matt i continued , "we had bluefish in their season only that is , their season hereabouts ; but this sea son . was gradually extended aa the fishermen went further and further away for the fish , and then when cold storage came into general - oral operation bluefish wore put into ( lie freezers , and with thin help we came to have bluefish at all seasons , in fact the year around. "Illuellsh smacks now fit out with a month's provisions and go far south to get ( he bluefish , as they start on their annual migra tion from southern to northern waters in the spring , and they follow them south again in the fall , and so extend the season for green fish. "Fine and splendid and able a fish as the hlucfish it , it does not live long out of water , and so it cannot be brought here alive iu welhi in the smacks as i.s , for in stance , the codfish. The bluefish' ermen that go out from here car ry , along with ample provisions , tons of ice in their holds , with which to pieserve the fish caught. "When a bluefish smack is do ing business , , with its men out in dories all around the vessel , fish ing businesa , with its men out in caught are dressed as BOOH as they are brought aboard and packed away in chopped ice. A vessel fishing from anywhere be low Ilatteras to as far north an the Cape of Delaware would take her casks into Norfolk , the most convenient and quickly accessible port , from where the fish , packed in ice in barrels , would be shipped to Ne\v York by rail. IJluetlHh caught north of the Delaware rapes could be brought here in the vessel. "The fish as caught are not packed away in the smack's hold indiscriminately , but they are Horled in si/.es and weights , so ( hat when ( he smack comes into port her skipper knows , for his own information , if he is going to dispose of her cargo , or for the information of his owner or consignee - signee , exactly what he has got aboard , and so his cargo can be , < lispos Ml of promptly and intolli- gendy without overhauling and unnecessary handling. "There are green bluefish in the market right now , as in fact ( here have been for some little time.

Close Rcscmblnnco to Old Testament Nnrrntivc Story Hnnded Down for Ages , Gapt. Morkor , a Gorman officer , who has spent some ton years in Gorman East Africa , has written a very interesting ethnographical monograph on the Masai natives , in which he describes not only the manners and eiiutoms of that race , but also their language and tra ditions. According to Capl.Mor- leer , the Masai have had handed down to ( hem a story of the first creation of the world and the hu man race which boars a remark able resemblance to that con tained in the Old Testament. Thy iMiiHiii relate that : In the beginning the earth was a barren , dry desert , in which there lived a dragon. Then God came down from Heaven , fought against the dragon and van quished it. There where God slow ( ho beast and poured out its blood there arose a Paradise , lux urianl with the richest vogot.it lion. ( The native word for this paradise is "korio. " ) Then God created by His word sun , moon , stars , plants and auimalsand last of all ho made the first human couple to aYisc. Hereupon follows a description of how God commanded the couple in question to abstain from eating the fruit of a certain tree , and how on His one day paying a visit , as was his custom , to Para dise , He found I hem guiltily try ing to hide from Him. It was the serpent here , too , who was at fault , and the woman who had succumbed to its temptation to eat the fruit. The serpent , ac cording to the Masai tradition , had three heads , and was pun ished by flnil hy lieiitjjeoiauiUUlIed to live forever in the "holes of the earth. " The two human beings were then driven out of the Garden of Paradise by the "morning star1 Which \\'as ordered to stand at * 'j | gate to keep it.

At the conclusion of the fiood a four fold rainbow appeared as proof of the cessation of ( Sod's ire , The Jacob's ladder also plays a part in ( ho .Masai tradition , but is used for a purpose very differ ent from ( hat in the Old Testa ment , being a means whereby dot ] climbs down from Heaven to visit ( lie human nice on eardi , Men tion is also made of ( he native tra dition of the deception of ( he first born , and of ( he law of circum cision , ( ho latter being sent through Marumi , the Moses of the Masai.
