TYPICAL DIAVOLOS.
LUXURIOUS BRIGANDS WHO MAKE EUROPE THEIR CAMPING GROUNDS.
Brigandage—which may happily be said to be all lost defiance in Russia and the Italian peninsula, which is only heard of now and again in fairly sparse areas in Sicily, which has lost much of its former virulence in the kingdom of Hellas proper, and which, thanks to railways and the maintenance of something approaching a stable government, is fading even out of Mexico—mums, by all accounts, to be flourishing in the fullest luxuriance in Eastern Roumelia. The energy and impedance of the gang of bandits who recently captured two Austrian subjects, M.M. Landler and Binder, at Bellova, and demanded no less than 1,000 Turkish pounds for their ransom, are almost of a nature to vie with the late M. Edmund About's delightfully picturesque but slightly imaginative narrative of the achievements of the Greek "Klept" Hadji Stavron, "King of the Mountains."
It cannot be denied that there is a slight touch of humor in the proceedings of these ruffly outlaws, and that they have contrived to cast a new light on the domestic economy of brigand life. There has been hitherto a tolerably general consensus among travelers that the modern brigand in Roumelia and on the Turko-Greek frontier is, as a rule, a deplorable ragamuffin, usually a new do well peasant or an innocent horse couper, who is in league with the drum shop keeper and sometimes with the priest of the village round about which he prowls. His timmermost garment is more frequently a great skin than a shirt of textile fabric; he rarely washes; his idea touching combs are indistinct and he never beard of a tooth brush.
As for his diet, it is one in which salt fish and sanguores largely predominate over butcher's meat, and rancid oil over both, and regards stimulants, he will drink as much as he can get of the commonest red wine, the most flary corn brandy and the most malodorous mastic or "raki." Of course, he smokes, but usually his tobacco has been the vilest Russian "mahorka" and his pipe a rude chibouck of cherry wood. The Bellova brigands seem, however, to have sons far above such primitive garb and such simple viands as we have glanced at.
PERFECT SYRABITES.
The rogues are perfect sybarites, and, in a letter addressed to a rich merchant of Tartar-Bazardjik, they demanded that there should be forthwith sent to them six Martini rifles of the pattern furnished to the Eastern Roumelian gendarmes, together with a large supply of ball cartridge, thirty-five pairs of shoes, as many shirts, ornamented with the finest Russian embroidery, thirty-five pairs of stockings of the best quality, thirty-five cakes of scented soap, an equal quantity of
The rogues are perfect sybarites, and, in a letter addressed to a rich merchant of Tartar-Bazardjik, they demanded that there should be forthwith sent to them six Martini rifles of the pattern furnished to the Eastern Roumellan gendarmes, together with a large supply of ball cartridge, thirty-five pairs of shoes, as many shirts, ornamented with the finest Russian embroidery, thirty-five pairs of stockings of the best quality, thirty-five cakes of scented soap, an equal quantity of ivory combs, three dozen less one of ivory cigarette holders, a large quantity of tobacco and cigarettes, and a neatly assorted stock of cognac, vermouth, bitters, cheese and other creature comforts. It is only to be wondered at that these dandy brigands did not add a few dozen boxes of sardines, Paris kil gloves, hand mirrors, birthday cards and flasks of eau de Cologne to their list. Their attar of roses they probably prepare for themselves, the odoriferous manufacture being indigenous to the region they adorn with their presence.
About the only tenable hypothesis that can be formed to account for the elegant luxury in which the Bulgarian brigands have taken to living may be that they have been reading a translation of the libretto of Scribe's "Fra Diavolo," and that they have resolved to "live up to it."
The real "Fra Diavolo," whose name was Michele Pezza, was the most repulsive of highway robbers. He had been a stocking knitter in a small way of business in the kingdom of Napier, and, going bankrupt, took naturally to the road. He became the accouge and terror of the two Calabrias, and a price was set on his head, but when in 1798 Cardinal Ruffo undertook to force the French to evacuate the Neapolitan territory he pardoned "Fra Diavolo," and even gave him a commission as lieutenant colonel of volunteers.
EXECUTED AT LAST.
For eight years this inconceivable black-guard waged guerrilla warfare on the Gallio invaders, robbing and murdering his own countrymen when there were no foreigners to fight, but in 1800 he was captured, shot and gibbeted, the officer who ordered his execution being, oddly enough, a gallant French general; the father of the great master of the romantic school in France—Victor Hugo. There was in reality nothing more romantic about Fra Diavolo than there was about our Anglo-French highwayman, Claude Duval, who was simply an absconding profligate footman of the Duchess of Portsmouth, but in the early days of French romanticism every incident and every personage that could be perverted to picturesque use were eagerly seized upon by the novelists and playwrights. They turned to Spain, and especially Italy; and, while Victor Hugo fabricated a wholly unhistorical Lucrezia Borgia as the hero of a tragedy, Alexandar Dumas manufactured an equally unveracious Fra Diavolo as the hero of a novel.
The ready witted Scribe at once availed himself of the latter amusing but delusive creation, and with the collaboration of the composer, Auber, he produced the always charming comic opera of "Fra Diavolo." There can be but little doubt that, while the lyric art benefited largely by the popularity of Auber's sparkling and harmonious numbers, an appreciable amount of social harm was done by the highly picturesque and histrionic presentment given by Scribe of the sham "Fra Diavolo" and his gang of murderous desperadoes. Society began to believe in the existence of a marauder elegantly and expensively attired in plum colored velvet, with gilt sugar loaf buttons to his ticket, his lower limbs swathed with smokes, but usually his tobacco has been the vilest Russian "mahorka" and his pipe a rude chibuck of cherry wood. The Bellova brigands seem, however, to have souls far above such primitive garb and such simple viands as we have glanced at.

Diavolo as the hero of a novel.
The ready witted Scribe at once availed himself of the latter amusing but delusive creation, and with the collaboration of the composer, Auber, he produced the always charming comic opera of "Fra Diavolo." There can be but little doubt that, while the lyric art beneficial largely by the popularity of Auber's sparkling and harmonious numbers, an appreciable amount of social harm was done by the highly picturesque and histrionic presentment given by Scribe of the sham "Fra Diavolo" and his gang of murderous desperadoes. Society began to believe in the existence of a marauder elegantly and expensively attired in plum colored velvet, with gilt sugar loaf buttons to his jacket, his lower limbs swathed with cris-cross thongs, and wearing a conical hat profusely ornamented with ribbons.
This ideal brigand was scrupulously polite to ladies, and would bow over and reverentially salute the taper fingers from which he gently removed the diamond rings, and only under extreme pressure of necessity would this orthodox bandit, who was usually a devout son of the church, rob a bishop—New York Graphic.
To Keep Away Mugquitos.
Hadji Hassanin Khouli Khan, Persian ambassador at Washington, always sleeps with his hands resting in a pan of cold water. He got into this habit partially because he has been used to a warm climate and could cool his blood in this way, and also because in Tabascan mosquitoes are a great pest. Hadji claims that a mosquito will not bat a man who has both hands plunged in water. He asserts that it is hosted blood which a mosquito desires, and that a person whose veins have been slightly chilled offers no attractions to the pernicious insect—Chicago Triture.
Do not leave anything standing in a room that can vitiate the air. Mills must not stand in a room. It is a hard-containing burning coffee rags and quinces. Quinches with evaporating solutions, such as cinnamon acid, etc., do no good.
Did you ever go into a small room where a person had been sleeping for some short time without desiring but still how much more important to a similar person, whom leaves his quarters, that the air should be thoroughly changed.
Ventilation cannot be accomplished by simply letting the pure air in; the bad gusts he hit on. If rooms, especially sleeping rooms, are not constructed on this plan, a little constriving will find a way.
Do not eat too much. Each person can best determine for himself when that amount is reached. Do not eat too strong meat too late; never eat hot or very cold liquids by many days fast, so the milk is unwarmed and the morning finished.
