A BUDDHIST "LIFE OF CHRIST." A Record of Immense Interest Discovered In a Monastery In Tibet.

A Buddhist "Life of Christ" of immense interest to the religious world has been discovered in a monastery in Tibet by Nicholas Notovitch, a Russian traveler. He tried vainly to negotiate for its purchase. He happened to break a leg and was taken to a monastery. While there a Lama read to him the precious record, which was in the Pali language, and Notovitchc took down a full translation. Christ is known to the Buddhists as the prophet Issa. This is a brief summary of his life: Issa was born of Jewish parents. He was poor, but belonged by birth to a family of exalted piety which had forgotten its former greatness on earth, magnified the Creator thanked him for the misfortunes with which he was pleased to try them. From his childhood he preached one God. On coming of age, 13, instead of marrying, he fled from his father's house and went with merchants to Sind. At 14 he was living among the Aryas. One day he broke away from the Brahmans. He denied the divine origin of the Vedas and the incarnation of Para Brahma. He learned Pali and was initiated into the mysteries of pure Buddhism. Then he went westward, preaching against idols. He was 29 years old when he returned to Judea. He began to preach, but his popularity alarmed Pontius Pilate. The latter summoned the priests and learned men to try Issa. The tribunal examined Issa and pronounced him innocent. Issa continued to speak to the people, inculcating obedience to Caesar and respect for womankind. The spies which Pilate set to watch him sent disquieting reports of the enthusiasm of the multitude. The governor, fearing a mutiny, caused Issa to be imprisoned, tortured and tried before the sanhedrin with two thieves. False witnesses were bribed. The governor then called a witness who, at the bidding of Pilate, had betrayed Issa. This man came, and speaking to Issa

said:

"Did you not claim to be the king of Israel when you said that the Lord of heaven had sent you to prepare his people?" Issa, having blessed him, said, "You shall be forgiven, because what you say does not come from your heart." Turning to the governor, Issa said, "Why humble your pride and teach your inferiors to live in falsehood, since even without that you are able to condemn an innocent man?" At these words the governor fell into a rage and ordered the death of Issa, while he discharged the thieves. The judges, having deliberated, said to Pi-

late:

"We will not taken upon ourselves the great sin of condemning this innocent man and absolving two thieves. The thing is contrary to our laws. Do, therefore, as you please." Having thus spoken, the priests and wise men went out and washed their hands in a holy vessel, saying, "We are innocent of the death of the just man." Issa and the thieves were crucified, but on the third day Issa's sepulcher was found open and empty.--London Letter. Crests. If you have a crest--and if you haven't your jeweler can design one for you at a small expense--do not be satisfied with engraving it on your silver, embroidering it on house and personal linen and painting it on the panels of your carriage, but put it on your front door also, this way: Your front door is either of heavy grained oak, bearing an iron knocker, the upper half of glass overlaid with a wrought iron grille, or it is all of white enamel, bears a brass knocker and the number of the house in inlaid Roman numerals of brass. The upper panels of the house are replaced by a heavy sheet of French plate glass set in a brass rim. So far very good. Now, inside that glass must be covered by a curtain to screen your privacy from the outer world. Be sure the curtain is of the finest French muslin gathered above and below on brass rods, and right in the center of the curtain must appear in French embroidery your crest, elaborately worked, so that whoever rings your bell may know that you do not lack one, and that you are not ashamed to show it to the world.--Demorest's Magazine. Women and Bank Accounts. Mr. Paul, president of the Ganesvoort bank of New York, thinks that "every wife in the land should have a bank account on her wedding day and something, however small, deposited to her credit by her father or husband. Let her pay her bills with checks. Let her make them out for $3.99 as often as they are required. A little banking is the very best lesson in practical arithmetic a young woman can have. It teaches her the real meaning of business. When the check is returned, it is a receipt, one of those things to which few women attach importance." There are a number of gentle depositors in the "goose market" bank, and President Paul has exaggerated tenderness for them all. "They do business on business principles," he says, "and they are womanly. What more can I say in their favor?"

A "Lost" Ring. A very swell and very pretty girl, who lives not a mile from the big Fifth avenue cathedral, has been receiving countless condolences on the announced loss of her engagement ring, a sapphire between two big diamonds. She has been partially consoled by the gift from her fiance of another handsome ring. Now she is beginning to quake and have all sorts of qualms, both moral and mental, because she is afraid some one of the six persons who know the truth about the loss will tell that it occurred at the poker table, and that she in a moment of frenzy or enthusiasm put up the ring to "call" a $50 "raise" and lost it. This is an absolutely true story, as six persons who read it--and perhaps more by this time--will acknowledge.

Mr. Coffey and His Grounds. Perhaps the best specimen to wit that has enlivened a Hamilton county court in many a day was that emitted like a flash from John Coffey, the attorney, who has been guilty of a good many things that have disturbed the serenity of bench and bar. Mr. Coffey was counsel in a case which had already been postponed some two or three times at his request. It was before Judge Outcalt. Again Mr. Coffey asked for postponement. The court reminded him that it had already been postponed several times at his request. "Have you good grounds for wishing another postponement?" asked the court. "Yes, sir, I have," replied Coffey. "What are they?" asked the court. "Coffey grounds, your honor." "Coffee grounds?" repeated the judge. "Yes, sir," said John. Then the judge got on his dignity and reminded the lawyer that he was trifling with the court. "Your honor," said Mr. Coffey, "there was a small addition to my family last night, and I submit, your honor, that this is good grounds for asking for a postponement." Did John get it? Well, rather.--Cin-cinnati Times-Star.

Childhood Sayings of an Empress. The Empress Frederick must have been a deliciously naughty child if all the stories told of her juvenile days are true. Everybody knows the "Good Night, Brown," story, but here are a few others not quite so familiar: Walking one day in Windsor forest with her daily governess, the princess, then 3 years old, showed a good deal of rather naughty temper. "Look," said the governess, "at that very nice little girl over there. How good she is! How quiet!" "I dare say she may be," retorted the little princess; "but, then, I also see she has no daily governess!" "Shall we meet every one we know in heaven?" she asked another time. "Oh, yes, my dear," was the reply. "Surely," thoughtfully remarked the child, "not Dr. A." Dr. A., it should be told, was an extremely plain old man. When the Prince of Wales was born, the good news was conveyed to her small highness. "Are you not pleased with your little brother?" it was asked some time later. "Oh, no," was the reply. "I would so much rather have had a pony!"

Snobbish Loyalty. To those who regard loyalty and snobbishness as the same thing a great opportunity is offered by a West End firm. The circular of these astute tradesmen states that:

"To enable lovers of the beautiful in nature to share the pleasure taken by her majesty in floriculture a few reproductions of a painting representing a group of pansies specially selected for growing in the queen's gardens at Windsor have been made." The price is only 10s. 6d. For a reproduction of a painting of an ordinary group of pansies this might seem a large figure, but when the pansies are the queen's pansies who would grudge half a guinea for the pleasure of looking at a reproduction of a painting of them? A clod, a piece of orange peel, an end of a cigar. Once trod on by a princely heel, how beautiful they are! --Labouchere's Truth.

The Pyramid of Dashur. M. de Morgan, chief of the antiquities department, claims to have made the discovery of the long sought entrance to the mysterious brick pyramid of Dashur, near Sakkara. After numerous borings in the ground surrounding the pyramid, he found, 27 feet below the surface, a

gallery 230 feet long, cut in the rock and inclining upward toward the pyramid.

Fifteen chambers were found contain-

ing numerous tombs and sarcophagi of high functionaries, among them the sarcophagus of a queen, all of the twelfth dynasty, over 2,000 years before Christ.

It is expected that further researches will reveal the sarcophagus of King Usurtepen III.--London Times.
