Unliko the negroes in the southern states, they took no delight in singing hymns among them¬ selves; unlike tho Polynesian Christians, they never went out to convert the neigh¬ boring heathen. When they escaped did, from the missions, as they frequently behind they always left their new religion them. In the course of three-quarters fled of a century thousands of such fugitives to the San Joaquin and Sacramento val¬ leys, and to the Siena Nevada, and mingled with the wild tribes, without leaving the least trace there of permanent Christian influence. Tho friars did not teach the abori¬ gines to be great mechanics. Among its Spanish settlers, the territory did not possess one blacksmith, carpenter, wheel¬ wright, shipwright, respectable or position turner competent his to take a among fellow craftsmen at tho time in London, Paris or New York. No good plow, good wagon, good boat or good rifle was ever mado in a mission workshop.

Hittel in Overland Monthly. No Children Need Apply. A well known newspaper man, who had l>een temporarily residing in Phila¬ delphia, changed his base of action to this city. His family consisted of his wife and live children, all of the flatter having passed tho mewling age. Find¬ ing himself well settled in New York hp looked about him for a nest for his mate and young. IIo was told of a handsome, well appointed flat in a location conve¬ niently near to tho prominent hotels and which a bachelor friend of his had just vacated. IIo inspected it and was de¬ lighted. The janitor was all smiles and smirks. The price was reasonable. The delighted journalist brought forth his pocket book and, while mentioning some well known persons as sponsors for his good name, proffered a month's rent in advance. The still beaming janitor, with¬ out extending a it and, inquired: “Pardon me, sir, but are you marriedl’’ “Why, certainly,” was the somewhat indignant response, for our friend saw in the question nothing more than tlio evidence of a suspicion as to the legality of his conjugal relations. Still beaming, the janitor said: “Any children, sir?” Proudly uttered was the response: “Four boys and a girl.” No longer beaming tho household agent said, coldly: “I am very sorry, sir, but I cannot let you the apartments.” “Why not?”—this in indignant aston¬ ishment. “Because, sir, the other tenants would leave in a body if we admitted children to this house. Their destructiveness we might put up with, but their noise is w-hat is most objected to. In New York people get all the noise they want in the streets, so they want quiet in the house. ” It was in vain that protestations were made ns to the angelic character of the youthful quintette in question, and use¬ less was the emphasis laid on the fact that all the youngsters had passed the boisterou- age. The fiat was inexorable. No children need apply. An exceptional case, you say. That’s what our friend said.
