College, has come TO Wichita for the pur-
pose Of teaching piano and thorough bass.
The following is one of the many refer
ences:
Miss Della De Long has for the past year
pursued the study of music under my
guidance. During this time she has been a
most careful and conscientious student, and
her progress has been propor,ionately thor
ough and solid, and her qualifications as
teacher Of the piano are such that those
who have the good fortune 10 come under
her instruction, need never fear that they
will have anything to unlearn as IS unforiu-
nately the case with so many. Miss DE

Mr.. John lerwood, writing from
Rome, says. a"Ne were taken through
the Vatican library by a chamberlain of
the pope, who was able to obtain n
trance for us to the rooms and access
to the rarely-seen- manuscripts. II is a
wonderful series Of rooms, magnif-,
Gently frescoed, and containing the gifts
OF soyereigns.
But it is for the number, rarity and
Importance of its manuscripts that the
Vatican is famous Here is the largest
and most precious OF collections of i'm
portant palimpsests. Wesaw one famous
Manuscript, deciphered by Cardinal
Angelo Mai, which contains the DE
Repubica' of Cicero, the discourse
Of st. Augustine, upon the
psalms, and fragments Of Terence of the
fourth century, and Is believed to be
the most ancient manuscript in exis-
tence. In the Same room We were per
mitted 10 see an autograph letter of
poor Anne Boleyn to Henry VIII, the
book Of Henry VIII, against Luther,
the manuscript autographs by Petrarch
and TorIuata Tasso, with miniatures
by Perugino, and so on-the richness is
interminable. The pope throws open
the vast treasures of the library under
certain restrictions) to scholars of
repute who bring him accredited proofs
Of their sincere desire to use these pri-
vileges for the purposes of history.
81 stopped before an extremely rich
case of illuminated manuscripts, where |
found the vignettes Of one now attrib-
uted to Raphael, and also of another as
cribed to Dante, written on and com
mented upon by Boccaccio; also the
breviary OF Matthias Corvinus, the last
king Of Hungary, the famous Bible of
the fourth century, the sermons of the
monk Jacques, with miniatures, and
songs and prayers in the japanese char
acters. Around me stood the ages of
this vast and noble compartment, the
grand gallery of the Vatican library"

Cold springs Mt the sea Bottom That sup
ply the People of BabrIn.
New York SUM-.
"Did you ever hear of a place where
the people are compelled TO fish in the
ocean for all the fresh water they user
asked zen Germley, a sailor who has
cruised in every water on the face of the
globe. There is such a place, and I've
beer there. It's the hottest place i was
ever in, and I've been to all the hot ones.
Rain never falls there, and the tempera
ture never changes. / think it stands
at i20degrees all the year round. You're
thirsty when you go to sleep, you wake
up in the night thirsty, you're thirsty
all day. Yet the people that live there
appear to think they are in the garden
spot of creation. That's natural, though,
for it isn't likely n out of a hundred of
them Was eve in any other place. This
delightful spot is on the Persian gulf, at
Babrin, where they fish for the water
they drink. l had the pleasure Of stay
ing there three days, ten years ago.
Il don't know who discovered the
fact, but there are numberless springs
of ice-cold water at the bottom of the
gulf, near the shore, where the water is
about sixty feet deep. This must have
been known when they first set up the
town, of course, or it wouldn't have
been started there. This fresh water
gets to be salt enough, though, before it
gets far from the bottom, and so they
have to send down after it. When Il
mans wife calls himto go after a pail of
water and be quick about it, over in
Babrin, he grabs a goatskin bag, yells
at the first neighbor he sees stretched
out in the sand, and the two jump into
n boat and row out a short distance
The man who is after the
water wraps the goatskin about his
left arm, with the mouth of the bag in
his hand. Then he takes in his other
hand a heavy stone. This stone is tied
securely TO the end of a long and strong
line, for stones are valuable property
there. Without them no one could get
out and fetch a pail of water, and they
are very scarce. With the stone firmly
clutched in his hand the man dives into
the water, and down he goes to the bot
tom. When he reaches the cool, fresh
water gushing up from the sand, he
opens the mouth of his goatskin bag,
drops the stone, and floats upward with
the strong current. The bag quickly
fills and the mouth is closed again
When the nan reaches the surface his
companion lifts the bag into the boat,
and the diver follows. The stone is
then carefully drawn up, and the men
go home.
THE water is cold and refreshing
when 1t first ZONES up from the depths
of the sea, but it soon gets 1at and
warm. The more you drink of it the
thirstier you get, but the natives can
get along on a few swallows OF it now
and then. The requirements of the
climate keep the divers at work in the
submarine springs for all they are
worth, and the shore is lined with their
boats all day long. The springs are
said to be the outlet of large natural
aqueduets in a range of mountains more
than 500 miles from the coast, but !
guess they would have a hard time to
prove that theory if they we're called
upon to do it," n

Among curious inventions for such
occasions is the dish of marrow bones,
which has become highly fashionable.
They are brought to the table folded in
n napkin, and if the reader inquire the
process it may be added hat Tiffany
has invented a cunning little spoon,
bucket-shaped and adapted to the pur-
pose of extracting the marrow. The
bones are served hot and the marrow is
eaten with a thin crumpet. Such is one
OF the ridiculous features in a society
which is always demanding something
new.
Another thing that may DO noticed in
this connection is the latest style in ice
cream, which is a single form of some
fanciful character. The fayorite de-
sign is a flesh-colored Cupid, which is
made so natural and life-like that at
first one is almost choked at the idea of
eating IL. 1t seems too much like cam
nibalism. After the first taste, how
ever, all such prejudice disappears, and
the lovely Cupid is deyoured without
conjunction. ffs . .f I-.rn

At least thirty bodies are deposited in
vaults in the cemeteries of New York
awaiting incarceration at the new ere

them belong to very prominent families.
The incarceration will be a triumph over
previous records. The furnace will be
The body placed on the catafalque will
descend to the furnace in the basement,
and in a few minutes several pounds of
ashes in beautiful terra Gotta vases will
rise where the corpse once rested. The
audience will not be aware that the in
cineration has taken place, as the cata-
falque is covered aud the body descends
unnoticed. The funeral services a
still proceed and not be interrupted.
The relatives an wait and get the ashes.
Any religious services in the world
can be conducted, for the crematory will
not be orthodox. Incense, myrrh and
high-favored spices will not be used.
There is no necessity, as no odor what
ever exhales from the furnace. Al
ready two pottery manufacturers have
put in bids for the terra Gotta vases.
of course rich people can furnish their
own vases if they desire. The crema-
tory will furnish only the terra Gotta
vases. Two rare specimens of Etruscan
vases called edicule, over 9, 900 years
old, will be placed in the crematory
office as specimens Of antique art and
taste. They came from Capua, Italy,
and were purchased by the company at
a round sum of money.
A common sized vase viii hold the
ashes. There are only four pounds of
ashes to every 100 pounds of flesh. The
ashes will be bleached to a pearly white
ness by the process of a superior heat
generator.

The funeral Of Mrs. Patrick Walpole

But few arrests were made.
Grading in and around the depot still

The brand committee was in session

allowed seven and rejected thirteen
brands.
The present disagreeable and snowy
weather has retarded business somewhat.
Freighters are holding back until the
weather settles.
A common drunk was landed in the
city Jail last night for creating a disturb

II. A. Roy and j. L. Probst, the r
yeyors, returned to the city yesterday
from the Gordon ditch. They run the
lines over it to sec if there was drop
enough to carry the water as was origi-
nally intended. They found it all right.
The ditch is about six miles in length, and
is about seven miles from the city.
The latest freak among the young folks
is the electric party" II is held at n
house where there is a heavy carpet, and
the fun consists in shutting rapidly over
the floor TO generate electricity in the per-
son, and then discharging it through the
fingers, nose or lips against some other
person or a metallic object. When two
well charged persons kiss the snap may
be heard in the next room, and when a
young man holds his nose near n gas
burner sparks fy from it and ignite the
