Very few* of the fine old palaces belonj to the descendants of the families wh< built and originally occupied them. Ver: little of the enormoup wealth for whiel i Venice was celebrated in the iiftcent! century remains. The most of it ha, , been dissipated by the descendants of th< men who made it. the same as in Eng land. France and other ccuntries. Tin f rich men of Venice today are an entireh new class of people, whose names do no appear in the Golden Book, which con tained a list of the patrician fam.lie: 1 who were Invited to festivities at th< ! palace. This book was instituted in 1313 and thenceforth, until the Austr.an occu pation, was the index and standard o . nobiiity by which all claims to precedent were decided. Occasionally the gran* ; council, by a vote, rewa.ded the galla-.t.; [ or public service of some citizen ol hum ble birth by directing that his name t* > inscribed upon its pages. None but thos whose names were in the Go den Boo, cuuiu use me goiaen stairs wnen me; J entered the doge s palace, and wh.n tlia , right was conferred it was equivalent ti l an order of nobility in another country t One notable exception to the deeay o the ancient fam.iies is Count Phi.ip Gn marti, the present mayor of Ven.ce, whi traces his lineage Lack to one of the mos famous of the doges, wnose portrait painted by Titian, hangs in the counci chamber of the doge's palace. The tlri niani palace is on the Grand canal, nca the Rialto bridge, and Is ce.eo*-ated fo its finety sculptuied capitals, j Most of the r.eh man in Venice toda: i are Jews, and several nave been ennobled i They practically control the banking ani mercantile business and manu.acturin^ They own the finest houses of histories and architectural interest, and the best paying estates on the mainland in tn ne.ghborhood. The present wealth o Venice, however, is invested not so muc, in real estate as in hanking, manufactur ing, flour mills, elevators, gas companies cotton mills, the manu. act are of glass aa in steamsh.ps upon toe Adriatic. Shakespeare got the material for sev eral of his plays of Italian life, includinj "The Mei chant of Venice," from an ok volume of tales written by a monk ii the fifteenth century or thereabouts "The Comedy of Errors" is based upoi incidents of actual occurrence, whit Shy lock was a notorious money lender whose house in Venice Is still pointei out to tourists. It stands in the old mar ; ket place, near the Rialto. where ther f is a tribune from which was proclaimet 5 the edicts and the announcements of th government, and opposite is the oldes church in Venice, which is said to hav been built as early as the year 520. The ghetto, or Jewish quarter, is nea by, where a colony of exiles from Spaii ) have been living ever since their expul slon from that country by the inquisi r tion In the sixteenth century. The street are the narrowest, the buildings are th< r highest and the tenements are the mos i- crowded of all Venice, and at one tim< all persons of Jewish birth were com 1 pel led to live within certain limits am * wear a certain dress, as is the case ii Russia and Roumania today. They wer e never persecuted, however, but have beei allowed to worship in their own wa; and engage in any line of business. Th . same quarter is still occupied by Jewisl i families, although the descendants of th f cotemnoraries of Shvlock now own am : occupy some of the richest and mos t beautiful palaces upon the Grand canal.

Then, later, through ^ : the prejudice of the priests and ?olltlcal leaders, learning among women began t" 1 decline, and we hear nothing more of a scholarship among that sex until Mart, a Oaetanna Agnesi appeared at Bologna , ; ?~?e was one of the most extraordinary women of all history. Her father was ~ ! a professor of mathematics In the I'm 1 : versity of Bologna, where she was born a ! in 1718. When nine years old she wrot< 1 a book In Latin on the "Rest>onsihllitleof Womanhood." and advocating the _ higher education of women; when tblr" teen she wrote and read nine languages, and when she was elghte n they called her "the walking polyglot," because , there was no language that she did nut { know. She used to appear before th< J Lamed societies of Italy to read papers on abstruse subjects. She wanted to become a nun. but her father persuaded * her to renounce such inclinati'<ns, ami B she retired from society and gave herL self up to study until her learning wag prodigious. Her memory was so rej tentive that she could quote pages of tigures and could give the date of any r historical event offhand. r She wrote a book on "The Analysis of Finite? Quantities" and a second volume y on "The Analysis of Infinitesimals." Both l i were translated into French. O rman and j English, and used as text books tr th European universities. 8he was a:sc th author of a text book on conic s -rtions _ In 1750 Pope Benedict XIV appoin'ed her to succeed her father when he re,,r?d as ( professor^ of mathemat cs at the ITt.iver a sity or Bologra, but. when he died tw<? years later, she was released from the , pledge she had given him. and gratitifd her original desire by Joining t.ie austere sisterhood of the Blue Nuns She became _ mother superio- and conducted its *f_ fait s until her death in 1799. j Her sister, Maria Teresa Agnesl, was n equally famous in music. ! There have been other women pro^ feasors of similar fame at the University of Bologna. I.a.ura Bassi held the chair of mathematics and physical sciences t during the early part of the ^hteenth w century. and Mme. Man co.in a was * demonst-ator in anatomy in the medical ? school at the same time. Clotilda Tem? broni occupied the cha.r of G eek from ? 1794 to 1817 and was one of tue greatest * linguists of her period. e There has never been any scholarship in Venice, however?only art. industry. r commerce and politics. The neighboring 11 cities of Padua and Bologna have been ' the Intellectual centers of northwesteru " Italy, s e University of Bologna. e The University of Bologna is the oldest - in Italy, having been founded in 1119. and a still stands at the head of Italian ln stitutions. In 1906 there were 211 pron fesaors in the faculty and 2,000 students y in the several schools of art, phlluauphy. e general science, engineering, law, tnedih cinc, pharmacy and agriculture. The ? schoo of Jurisprudence at Bologna Is 3 the oldest in the world, and in the midt die ages was attended by student* from Great Britain and from all the countries on the continent. The medical school was equally famous. The anatomy of J the human frame was first taugin. there . in the fiurteenth ceptury, and valvanism was discovered there by Dr. Gaivani n In 1789. The most famous lincuis* ever t known in Italy was Giuseppe Me?roranti, professor of oriental languages ?.na prefect of the library. At the age ^f thirty " six he is raid to have been r,i>U to read. s write and speak ei hteen Inas . es fiur ently. and at the time of Ins oeaih lie r could read, write and speu* lorty-two e languages. h At one time there were lO.qoo students f at Bo ocna, and at the hei 'ht of :*.* fun? it was the bert known educational iustid tution in the world. ri Costly Material in St. Mark's.

In the baptistry is a block of granite upon which the iru'des will tell you John the Papti6t was beheaded. When I questioned the sacristan * who was showing us about as to the evidence to sustain that claim he shrugged his shoulders and said: ' "I only tell you that: I do not knew."
