BURMESE GIRLS.

The Burmese girls are very bright
and good beggars, too, and when
one steps up to you with six-inch
cigar in her mouth and her comely
person swathed in garments, the
color Of which would rival Joseph $
coat, and offers you her wares, the
only thing for a man TO do is TO buy
and buy at once. The Burmese
girls arc noted, too, for their in
dependence, and they walk about
the streets and through the bazaars
and around the pagodas with big
cigars in their mouths with as much
freedom as do the men in most
countries. Their dress is more
picturesque, too. than the Arabs
They use the very brightest red,
yellow and pink silks in their
adornment. and the prevailing fash
ion runs to scarfs more than to
dresses, and bands OF ribbons more
than to jackets.-New York Sun.

sMITH WAS A CHARMER,

In 1914 Captain John Smith, of
Pocahontas fame, made trip TO
what is now known as Gardiner.
Me-, but there was an incident that
occurred during that visit that is
known by few people. The Cabas-
sas were presided over by q chief
having his headquarters at what is
now Gardiner, known as Cabsssas,
who had daughter named Schools.
famed among her tribe for her beau
ty and grace. She was, unfortu-
nately, smitten ut once with the
gallant captain, who was, by the
way, the first white man TO visit
these parts, and who was received
with great cordiality. Smith had
with him u lieutenant named Hunt,
who was Of rather quarrelsome
disposition and prone to mutiny.
When the time came for the party
OF whites to depart, Hunts mutt
nous spirit showed itself, and with
small party Of followers he left
Smith, going in the opposite direc-
ton. HIS party took them as cap
tives several Of the tribe Of Cabassas
The chief, considering the whites
one party. by grand mistake fol-
lowed Captain Smiths loyal band,
which camped that night about four
miles from the present location OF
Gardiner, in an easterly direction.
Schools, thinking to wsrn the Cap.
tain, hurried on before the party OF
cnraged Indians, but arrived toe
late, for as ale arrived at the camr
the first volley Of arrows was de.
livered.
Thinking to save Smith, she fed
to him, threw her arms about hi.
neck. and in that position received
an arrow III the breast that caused
instant death. The chief was pal
sied at the accident, and ordered
ho.tilities to cease. This allowed
Smith an opportunity to explain
that it was the other party that die
the kidnapping.
After sorrowful return and tn,

church, the party of red men wen

taken near Norridgewock and hi
