Freeland tribune. (Freeland, Pa.) 1888-1921, 1891-12-03

An elderly lady, with n striking face
partially concealed behind white veil,
attracted considerable attention at the
Union Depot the other evening, says the
Pittsburg Dispatch. She was accom-,
panied by pretty maid with dark eyes,
who attended to all her needs. The
woman was Mrs. Helen Aldrich De Croix
blind authoress of some note. She
said she had no home, but was now on
her way to Canton, to visit friends for
awhile, and from there she would go to
Fort Wayne. She has just completed a
history of her life, and among her works
is the novel "Foreshadowing.
Mrs. De Croix is a woman with a re-
markable history. She is now seventy.
three years old, and was born in Roches-
ter, N. Y. According to her story she
was married forty-six years ago, in New
York to Frenchman named De Croix and
while returning from church in a carriage
the horses ran away, and her husband of
only few minutes was thrown out and
killed. She escaped unhurt, but the
shock and her grief were SO great that she
was attacked by severe fever. After
six weeks of suffering she arose from a
sick bed with her eyesight gone. Since
then she has travelled extensively and
makes her home wherever it suits her in
clination.' She has devoted her life to
literature.

The Zulu woman is the architect and
builder of the Zulu house, and the style
of architecture is known in the colonies
as "wattle and daub" 1t looks like an
exaggerated beehive, for the Zulu mind
has this popularity, that it cannot grasp
the idea of anything that is not round or
elliptical in form. There are no squares
in nature. To build her house the wo-
man traces circle on the ground four
teen feet in diameter, and getting a num-
ber of long, timber branches, she sticks
them firmly into the ground and then
bends the tops over, and ties them with
fibre obtained from the numerous creep
ers, or monkey ropes" Then she twines
thicker creepers in and out of these
sticks, all round the circle of spaces,
about twelve inches apart, and then TAX
ing waffle "a kind of coarse grass or reed)
she thatches the edifice, leaving a small
hole at the top for chimney and another
hole three feet square for door. In
front of this she builds covered way,
extending outward about three feet, and
the exterior of the house is finished by n
coating of "daub," or mud She then
seeks the nests of the white ant, and.
digging them up, obtains u quantity of
white clay, which she beats to powder,
dries, and then, mixing it with water,
kneads it until it is quito smooth. This
she spreads all over the ground inside
the hut and beats it carefully until it is
quite hard and free from cracks. This
floor good housewife will scour twice a
day with smooth stones until it is like u
piece OF polished marble. The fireplace
is near the door, and is simply ring of
this clay to confne the embers in one
place. The other necessaries found in
hut are bundle of spear shafts, some
tobacco drying and several punches of
millet hanging from the roof. Grouped
round the walls are the three amasi Ia
species of sour milk jars, the native beer
jars and open jars holding grain. OF
course the dense wood smoke rising coats
the roof, millet and tobacco with SCOT,
and long "fingers" of it hang in every

Overxup Isf OErp. y

The introduction of carp into the
water near San Francisco by the Cali
fornia Fish Commissioners has not
been productive of good results. The
newcomers are called water hogs, and
are considered scourge in many
ways. The demand for them in the
market did not last long, and when
the demand ceased the breeders quit
the industry and turned the fish into
the nearest water courses, where they
1ourished, and thence spread until
now they infest all of the tide sloughs
adjacent to San Francisco Bay.
Winter floods carried them to the
marshes and left them landlocked.
They have multiplied so largely that
they may spoil the sport for the MEM
bers of shooting clubs that have pre-
serves of natural water and planted
feed for ducks in their ponds. The
carp have bred. by thousands in the
ponds and have almost DESTROYED
the grasses. In the Suisun marsh
myriads of fish have DESTROYED the
feed. In the tule swamps up the
bay and along the San Joaquin and
sacramento rivers vast shoals of earn
may be seen. One club is consider
ing the advisability of draining its
ponds and keeping them dry for
season to kill the fish.

produce very melodious notes. Formerly
they cooked their food in leather bags on

adopted the pots and pans of the white

GOWNS ON APPROVAL,

They were lunching at the Richeleu
and talked louder than they intended.
One was exquisitely begowned, and the
other was congratulating her on her ap-
pearance.
But it must have been very expen-
sive, that gown" she said.
"Didn't cost me cent" said the other,
with a smile.
"Why, what do you mean?" queried
the other.
"Why, 1 took it on approval. Don't
you understand"

'Why, | went to Fields and picked it
out, and they sent it home for approval. -

"Then it will cost you something"

am going to make some calls tomorrow
| shall wear it and tomorrow send il
back"
The other didn't reply, and the bcauti-
fully begowned one continued:
at is perfect dream of scheme
whenever one wants to be u little swell
one can do as [ have done, and without
cost. 10 be sure, one mustn't go too
often, and once in while one must buv
gown. But doing as l, yes, and as
many others do, for the price of one
gown one can have the use of several.
Only one must be careful not to commit
the error friend of mine did,"
"What was that?"
why, she took gown and kept it for
several days. OF course, gowns sent on
approval are not expected to be worn.
But the clerk who received it and found
in the pocket a lady's card case, ut least
have had his suspicious aroused that the
gown had been worn. | don't know what
word was sent back with the case,
but | do know that she doesn't give Field
the benefit of her custom any more"
Whereat both laughed heartily, and
calling the waiter, ordered two pieces of
pie.--lChicago Post.

WOMEN AS LABORERs.

The women in mountainous portions of
Germany, writes n correspondent, seem
to do greater proportion of the manual
labor than any we have heretofore seen.
In the Swiss Rhine valley we saw women
pulling large four-wheeled carts, well
loaded, but in Wurtemburg we have seen
them breaking stone for the road. More
than this, in Bavaria we have seen a
woman tugging manfully at heavily
loaded hand-cart, while her lord and
master walked in the rear and serenely
smoked his pipe. But where are the
men? In the army? Yes, the best Of
the young men are in the army Just at
the time when they are ready to be useful
in the common vocations of life. In the
army they are apt to contract habits of
idlcness despite the performance of rou-
tine and other military duties, which
leads them upon their return to civil life
to select the snaps" as it were to
choose the light end of the log when there
is heavy end. And the woman2 Oh,
she is used to it.

A Three-Eyed Calf.

An Alderney COW belonging to Samuel
Woods, of North Union Township, gave
birth to female calf that has almost
two heads. The head has an enlarged or
double appearance, as though two heads
were grown together. Away around ON
each side of the double head is perfect
eye, and directly in the centre is another
eye. The centre eye is well formed but
is sightless. The nose and mouth also
run together, and the calf has that kind
of mouth sometimes spoken of that
runs from ear to ear. 1t is misshaped,
but double The regulation number of
ears, feet, ETC., are properly attached to
the calf, and it is lively and will from all
appearances live.-[Uniontown Penn. }

Old European Churches.

The Oldest church in the Continental
Europe is the Church of Sta. Maria in
Trastevere in Rome. In the year 221,
Pope Callixtus |. obtained permission
from the Emperor Alexander Servius to
build church. This church, it is said,
was the first that was made public in
Rome. 1t underwent number of re-
pairs, and was rebuilt from the founda-
tion in 1889. If the foundation is taken
into consideration it is the Oldest. There
is, however, another old church in the
same city which has not been built over.
1t is st. Clements and is reputed to be
on the site of the house of St. Clement;
it was built in All, and its primitive
style is still preserved. The Mosque of
st. Sophia, Constantinople, was origin
ally Christian church, having been
built in 1876 by the Emperor Constantine.
1t was dstroyed by fire in 404 and was
rebuilt upon the same foundation in Ais,
and destroyed about $50, and rebuilt in
532. When Constantinople was captured
by the Moslems, it was converted into a
Mohammedan Mosque. In Spain, the
Cathedral of Zaragoza is said to have
been the Temple of Diana, and was con-
verted into church after that city (the
first in SPAIN professed Christianity un-
der the preaching of st. James. AS he
suffered martyrdom in the year "A, this
places the Cathedral of Zaragoza in the
fore rank, but the authenticity of its
antiquity is defective. In England it is
claimed for the Abbey Church of the
Abbey of Glastonbury great antiquity.
Tradition says that the church was foun-
ded by Joseph of Aramathea. 1t is,
however, in ruins, as are its two COM
panion chapels, st. Josephs and St.
Mary's, both of which were built in
1140.-[ Boston Transcript.

Rio de sIAuairo.

The entrance to the Bay of Rio d.
Janeiro, Brazil, is one of the finest
panoramas in the world. The Bos-
phorus alone can be compared to it,.
Since 1885 Rio de Janeiro, like the
District of Columbia, forms metro
politan district and is entirely inde-
pendent Of any state government.
The climate of Rio is superb. There
are but two seasons, the winter or
rainy season, extending from April to
September, and the summer or dry
season, extending from October to
March. The city is literally provided
with educational institutions. There
are two medical colleges, school of
pharmacy and a school of art. There
are "a schools of primary instruc-
tion for both sexes, and many other
scientific and private establishments:
There are % benevolent and mutual
aid societies, "a literary, scientific,
philotechnic and historical societies.
The liberal professions are far ad-
vanced. The legal and medical fra
ternities number many distinguished
lights in their ranks. There are l25
papers and reviews of all kinds pub
lished in the city. There are IA lead
ing theaters, the largest of which,
built in 1872, is as large as the Scala,
of Milan. Every season excellent
companies are organized in Europe to
play there, and Italian, French, Ger
man and English opera is presented
with all the circumstance of the Eu-
ropean performance. The Jardn de
Campo da Republica is one of the
most beautiful parks in the world,
and contains 10000 exoteric plants.
The city has so, 900 houses and pop
ulation Of 100000.

An Intruding Turk.

The "Turkey" of diplomatists and
map-makers means, not the land of the
Turk, but those lands-Greek, Bulgarian,
Servian, and Albanan-in which their
enemy the Turk is still encamped. On
no spot of Europe, on no spot of the coast
of Asia, is the Turk really at home. He
is everywhere foreign intruder, burg
lar who has thrust himself into the houses
of other men. While other conquests
have in time changed into lawful possess
sions, either by the conquerors assimlat-
ing the conquered, or the conquered as
similating the conquerors, the Turk re-
mains as much stranger in Europe as he
was when he first came in, more than five
hundred years back. And so it must ever
be as long as the Turk remains Turk 4;
for no Mahometan ruler can, without cast.
ing aside the precepts of his own law, be-
come what u ruler is bound to be towards
the subjects of other religions. 1t is his
first duty as Mahometan to keep men
of all other creeds-the Christian i'm
Europe, the Fire w orshiper in Persia,
the Hindoo in India-in bondage to the
men of the dominant faith. He therefore
cannot reform: promises of reform made
by the Turk are in their own nature
worthless. They are nowhere carried
cut, unless when the Turk is afraid to
break them under the eye of more power
full Europeans. To talk of Turkish
government is therefore q mere diplo-
matte conventionality. There is no
Turkish government" The object of u
government is the protection of its
subjects; and that the Turk does not
give. The so-called Turkish govern
ment is an organized system of brigand-
age with chief brigand called "Sultan"
at its head Forum.

Use for the Fifth Wheel.

The fifth wheel for coach has found
it's place at last. On the tramway at
Brussels, Belgium, they have cars Trans
deraillables) which are fitted with fifth
wheel, so that they can easily be made to
leave the rails and be replaced upon
them, and their use is said to be increas-
ing. The fifth wheel is placed in the
fore part of the car, and can be raised by
means of levers, so that the other wheels
are free to leave the rails whenever there
is an obstacle ON the line of route. In
order to replace the car on the rails, the
conductor unclamps the guide wheel, and
the other wheels are thus made to regain

Carrier Pigeons After a Journey.

The carrier pigeon when travelling
never feeds. If the distance be long it
flies on without stopping to take nourish-
ment, and at last arrives thin, exhausted
and almost dying. If corn be present ed
to it, it refuses to eat, contenting itself
with drinking little water and then
sleeping. Two or three hours later il
begins to eat with great moderation, and
sleeps again Immediately afterward. If
its flight has been very prolonged the
pigeon will proceed in this manner for
forty eight hours before recovering its
normal mode of feeding. i London lid

The Jewish Messenger, in referring
to Jewish immigration to the United
States, says: IF Baron Hirsch would
establish places of refuge in Europe,
where the Jewish refugees might be
prepared for new life and new
homes, he would be rendering the
best service. To transport poverty
stricken thousands who are unable to
cope with new conditions is no char
.ity, and yet that seems the highest
ambition of European committees.
