What a Kentucky BurGoo Is.

"If you should go out to Kentucky
about this time" said the old Judge,
"you would probably be invited to a
burgoo. You don't recognize him by
that name, do youp NoP Well, q
burgoo (accent on the last syllable) is
grand, good thing. 1t is an all-day
picnic in the woods, with q feast
which throws the clam chowder and
the barbecue into tho deep shade Of
obscurity. In fact the burgoo usually
includes barbecue as sort of Incl
dent. You 90 out to corner of the
woods, where thick underbrush has
been carefully cut away, and where
there are trees enough for shade, but
not enough for gloom, and there you
sit and play poker and smoke the fin
est tobacco in the world and drink oily
10-year-old sour mash and sniff the de-
lightful aroma Of the burgoo until
along in the afternoon, when the Mig
gers pronounce tho burgoo ready and
ladle it out to you in big bowlfuls.
The burgoo is delicious broth, which
is perpetual reminder of the aborig-
ines, who handed it over to our fore
fathers when they began coming across
tho mountains from Virginia. You
take-or, rather, tho darkies take--a
gigantic kettle and hang it over
roaring fire. A light broth is made
first; then they throw in young chick
ems, young ducks, sucking pigs, and
all sorts OF small game, with fresh po-
tatoes, green peas, string beans, corn
and every other vegetable. Everything
is cooked until the meat begins to fall
to pieces Then the walters, with
shining, smiling, black faces and snow
white jackets and aprons, bear great
bowlfuls of the toothsomo stew
through the grove. Oh, how good it
is! My mouth waters as l tell you of
1t. Afterward there is more burgoo.
and then more burgoo, until everybody
has actually had enough. Then the
darkes satisfy themselves, while you
return to your pipe and your glass,
until the shadows of evening gather
sleepily around you" His voice be-
came low and his look became dreamy,
Suddenly he reused himself and re-
marked as no turned away: "A few
weeks later the darkios hold their
camp-meeting on the same spot. y

Sailing Among Glaciers.

We had already sailed past several
glaciers larger than the Mer-de-Glace,
Of Mont Blanc, but they were so far
away that we got no adequate idea Of
their extent. Nor did any of them
push their way into the sea. This
glacier, to which our boat was not
pointed, came down into deep water,
and stretched back into the mountains
until its course was lost in fields of
snow. AS the steamer checked her
speed to keep at safe distance from
the monster, We found that we had
sailed up point-blank against . vertical
wall of blue leo mile and half long,
and 800 feet high above the water! AS
II to illustrate the grand scale and
magnitude of everything, just as our
boat rounded to, chip of ice safely
estimated to weigh 1900 tons, broke
off from the face of the glacier and fell
distance of 100 feet into tho sea. OF
course there followed mighty uproar,
and then n wave that rocked our
steamer as do only tho big swels from
the Pacific. AS the tide was ebbnr,
the mass that had just fallen into the
water Heated out past the boat, form
ing field OF broken ice several acres
in extent.
The upper surface Of the glacier was
full of deep assures, and at the water
level there were mysterious caves which
no one dared explore. Pieces of ice,
large and small, were constantly drop
ping into the sea; and, as the ice-wall
acted as q sounding board, there were
constant volleys' of sound as sharp as
that of musketry or artilery-demon-
stratng to our satisfaction that the
butt-end of q glacier, where iccbergs
arc made, is very noisy place.
Passengers were landed on shore;
and, after u climb along the side
moraine to a hight of some 500 feet
few of us found ourselves ut point
where we could overlook tho stream
of ice and get an idea of its deep
assures and impossible condition.
High as we were there were yet peaks
of leo between us and the water that
were still above us, and we could only
see fraction Of n mile inland. Every
thing was on n scale that could only be
realized by the test of climbing. Along
side the glacier, in mid-channel, there
were soyonty-fve fathoms of water;
and, as the steamer approached shore
to land us, the leadsman reported no
bottom at twelve fathoms.
Only last year did the boat make its
first trip to this glacier. Farther up
the bay four or five other glaciers come
down from the Fairweather group of
mountains, but very little is known
about them. We only caught an oc-
casional glimpse of the glaciers, and
saw that but small part of the float
ing ice in the bay came from the i'm
mense reservoir of ice that we had
visited.
