All that is claimed by the most
radical historian is that Columbus
was of Jewish descent. This theory
is based on the following facts: Co-
lumbus was the son of Domenico
Colombo, a cloth weaver of Genoa.-
and Susanna Fontanarossa. ' Those
historians who put forward the sug-
gestion that Columbus was of Jew-
ish descent claitthgt he was born
in Pontevedra, SpAin. and; not in
Genoa. Documents are in existence
showing that one Colon and one
Fontanarossa formed a partnership
in the former town in 1437 for the
purpose of purveying fish to the
archbishop of Santiago. The fami-
lies of both partners were of Jew-
ish descent. It is assumed that this

said In bewilderment. “One goldfish
disappeared yesterday, another today.
It's certainly a mystery. What kind
of a place. I wonder, have I moved in-
to?”
Outside the window was a small iron
balcony. Hilda stepped over toe low
window sill and found herdelf on the
tiny shelf, from which she had a splen-
did view of the street. She looked
down. Below her tor several Stories
were little iron balconies similar to
her own, a few of them gay with green

Acrording to the handlook on
British India just published by the
United States bureau of foreign and
domestic commene, good results
have attended the efforts recently
made in India to prepare antidotes
against the bites of certain species
of poisonous snake that have caused
great morlalit in that country. At
Parel lalra orv. Bombay, venom
from Ine (n’ras is injected into
horses in -Tnly increasing doges
for a pwrin of Iwo years, until the
animal aryuiro- immunity to the pi-
eon. and. acording to th" familiar
principle of rum therapy, the se-
rum of lii" immunize horse consti-
tutrs mi antivenin, which is said to
be an infallible cure for cobra bite
if injected promptly enough into the
patient. This laboratory also pre-
pares an antivenin against the bito
of Runsell’s viper, but has not yet
produced any against that of the
krait (Bungarus) or Echis Carinata.
During the 25 years ending 1911
more than half a million human be-
ings were killed by snakes in India.
