The Rite of Johur.

st. James OdZcItc.
Johur is an awful rite. A whole tribe
may become extinct by it, as is seen by
several instances recorded in the history of
the Rajpoot states. What it signifies is the
burning of women to save their honor
The Rajpoot is profoundly jealous of the
honor of his women; and to prevent their
falling into the hands of cOnquerors. then
to be dealt with as was often the
case in the wars with the Moham-
medans, he has recourse to the Johur;
that is to say, the immolation Of
every female of the family. And the
Rajpoot woman gladly embraces such a
refuge from pollution; or even if she were
not in fear of being forced away as a cap
tive. she would prefer it to living on as a
widow. The loss of battle or the capture
of a CITY during the Mohammedan invasOns
was usually the time when this dreadful
rite was practced. At the end of the
famed sisge of Cheetore, the ancient capital
of the Rama of Odeypore, by Ala-uddin. in
1903. the Rajpoot chief, after an arduouS
day. passed the night in bordering the
means by which he might save from general
destruction one at least of his twelve sons.
Eleven of them fell during the next few
DAYS: and when but one son re-
NAMED to the Rama he proclaimed
the Johur. The funeral pyle was
lighted within subterranean chambers
where the suns rays had never entered. and
the defenders of Cheetore beheld the queens
and their own wives and daughters to the
number of several thousands, pass in pro-
cession to the fire. The beautiful Pullman.
the consort of the Rama, who was believed
to he the chief object of attraction for the
conouering Tartar. came last in the throng.
The door Of the caverns closed; the fires
ragged within; and the honor OF the Rajpoot
women was saved. When afterward Ala
uddin entered the capital on the death of

THE FREENDLYENN.
steps for Continuing Good Work
During the Winter.


Owing to the inclement weather quorum
was not present at the meeting of the Asso-
riated Charities called for yesterday after
noon. 1t was decided not to call any meet
ings before Dec. 6. when the annual meet
ing is to be held. The directors of the
Friendly Inn held meeting at 4
o'clock, at which George A. Bracket pre-
sided. An informal discussion of the work
to be done by the institution during the
winter was held. 1t was agreed
that it was necessary for the
greatest good that the inn should receive
the support of as many of the charitablv
inclined as possible. so as to obtain gen
eral cooperation. Mr.. Bracket stated that
it had only cost about $1,000 year 20
maintain the inn, and it had been the means
of constantly keeping from Seventy-tive to
100 poor men from suffering. 1t had also
greatly diminished the number of trampS,
and had reformed many of them. He sub
mitted the following figures as showing tie
decrease in the number of trampS, and the
work performed by the inn during the past
two years:
Hours of labor performed in 1885, 1868;
1856, 1861, total, 1924. Cords of wood
sawed in 1856, 1,O03; 1856, S29; fetal, 1882.
Lodgers in 1885, 1852; 1856, 1872; total,
7,774 Meals furnished in 1885, 1869; 1886,
2,973; total. 1885.
1t was decided to send out an address,
which is to state succinctly what has been
done in the past and what is planned for
the future Subscriptions of $40 each will
be asked, the amount being made small for
the purpose oil interesting a large number
of people. Messrs. D. c. Bell, Anthony
Kelly and Rev. NJ. T. Giertsen were ap-

worse accommodations than any other
class of people who come to Washington to

second-story front, suitable for members
and senators, brings Mrs. Bardell only SO
per month, during the summer when Mr..
Plckwick is the ledger. But, in the winter,
when Hon. ledge WeXem occupies the

extra for his alleged meals, gas light and
servant. When congress Is i'll session, the
landlady smiles one great broad prehenSlle
smile from morning until night. When
congress adiourns, she grips her pocket
hook with a Sullivan grippe, and hangs on
to it all during vacation. Her face Is thin
