by n man OF a different caste from himself,
and on some of the boats / saw Indian
raiahs, who ate nothing from the beginning
to the end of voyage on this account. In
the jails Of India, which are managed by
the English, the cook Is always n Brahmin
or of the highest of the Hindoo castles. The
lower castles will eat after his cooking and
are not thus defiled. If a cook was chosen
of lower caste many of them would starve

rather than eat from the hands of q man of
q lower caste.
This caste prejudice enters into every
thing in India. 1t forces tho foreigner TO
keep dozen servants TO DO the work of the
household, and am told that 1t Is almost I'M
possible for family TO get along with less
than thirteen servants. 1 met last week an
English preacher, who had an income of 81 800
a year, and he told me il was absolutely i'm
possible for him to live in India without thir-
teen servants. Said he: "They are paid
but low wages, but there are so many of
them that the sum total is large. You have
to have man for everything you want done
and he will do nothing else but that one
thing. The man who washes the dishes will
not mako up the beds, ana the cook will not
attend to the washing of the dishes.
groom for every horse, and for every two
horses you have to keep q man to cut
grass for them. The woman servant who
waits upon your wife does not consider 1t
her business to wait upon you, and the
servants who do the other work about the
house expect you to have a body servant to
do your own errands. If you ask man tO
do anything out of his regular business, he
says 1t is contrary to his caste and You then
know that you have to submit. There are
hundreds of castles in India. They are based
on religious differences, on trade arrange
ments and social distinctions. There is
caste of BARRIERS, of beggars, of thieves and
water carriers. There are the Brahmns, the
Sudras, the cow-skinners, the corpse-bearers
and dozens of others, divided and sub
divided until only the Hindoo can tell YOU
their numbers and differences"

ones two hands, on bill board across the
street II was headed "lost"-but was print
ed in so fine type you could not read it three
feet away What busy man would go across
the street to see what it was? The printing
cost dollar, perhaps, and the probability is
the billet got torn down or covered up before
dozen people had read it. For half this
cost. to say rothns of tramping all over town
to stick them up, not counting cost of tacks
and pounded fingers, = good fair 'sd." could

Some seventy Ave men are at work on the
field and several acres have already been
scraped and plowed. Cutting began Thurs
dsy and about three thousand tons have al
ready been harvested. The ice is fifteen
inches think and of extra quality, being per-
feetly free from impurities. About thou
