Berlin Public Kitchens

A public kitchen for the working
classes was inaugurated in 1865 by a
German woman, Han Morgenstein. She
has established many of these kitchens,
each one having public dining room,
comfortably warmed and furnished and
supplied with the daily papers. Each
kitchen, supplying perhaps from 800 to
400 people with daily meals, is managed
by local committee, the whole scheme
being under the control of a central
council. All the paid cooks are on the
premises by in the morning, and tho
vegetables and meat have been brought
In before them.
Waste of any kind is strictly forbid
den. A subscription of 90, $50 was suffi-
cient to start this scheme; the reserve
fund set aside for providing new kitch-
ems increases each year, while the
council pays fair wages and is able to
pension off it's old servants. For sum
varying from to cents. the Berlin
workman can obtain satisfactory meal
at any of these restaurants. A dinner
for 4 cents allows basin of thick, SUBJ
stantial German soup, plate of vege-
tables and plate of pudding, and a
roll of bread in addition costs little
over one-fourth of nt--Nineteenth

A Scheme For Good Roads.

There is growing popular demand
for improved roads-a demand which
is fully justified upon economic and So
cial grounds. Therefore desire to rec
ommend q measure by which tramps
and vagabonds, as defined by statute,
may, upon conviction, be sentenced in
the different counties-at the discretion
of the court or justice of the peace hav-
ing jurisdiction--to labor upon the pub
lie roads or village and town districts,
under the direction of the county COM
missioners and while in the custody Of
the sheriffs of the counties. Such a law
would relieve the counties from the ex
pense involved in conveying convicted
tramps to the house of correction which
is now incurred, while the cost of the
additional force Of deputy sheriffs req
uisite for guarding the convicts when
at work and in the county jails would
be more than covered by the value OF
the improved roads and the lessening OF
the road tax. Provision may also be
made that those tramps and Migrants
who are sent to the house of correction
from Baltimore city should be turned
over for the time of their sentence by
the board of managers to the commits
sioners of such counties as make appli-
cations for their labor. - Governor

CHAPTER VII.

CROHOOR-BEG - SAMUEL WATKINS To
HENRY VIGORS.
You will no doubt have already read
the official report in which l have in
formed the authorities of the disappear
ance of Rev. Mr.. Freeman's second son
under circumstances somewhat similar
to those which attended the disappear
ance of the eldest, Mr.. John Freeman
This extraordinary event has caused a
degree of CONSERVATION and alarm over
the whole countryside which it would
be impossible to describe. On the morn
ing of Friday last about 70 o'clock Ed
ward Freeman, whose exertions for the
discovery of his brothers. place of con-
cealment, voluntary or enforced, have
been so indefatigable, was seen walking
in the direction of Dhu-Corrig and no
doubt on his way to that fatal and i'll
omened rock. Two children coming
along the main road saw him turn
aside and step briskly down the little
lane or boreen leading to Dhu-Corrig.
He had fishing rod ON bis shoulder
and box of bait in his hand. He has
not been seen since. The mystery is
infinitely more than doubled by this sec
ond disappearance, for with it our by
pothesis regarding the first-viz, that
Melody murdered him-vanishes too. |
declare begin to think there Is some
thing supernatural and uncanny in the
whole of this Freeman affair. All other
theories having failed, can assure you,
though l may earn nothing but your

scribes inteliigently, as most of the ply
sicianS who are privileged to attend his
consultations with his patients admit.
He has, however, certain peculiar theO-
ries of his own, and though they may not
be we'll defined they would seem to be
we'll grounded if the reports of their good
effects may be believed.
The priests first prescription is almost
invariably a cold bath, and he will not
permit his patients to dry themselves
after it, but insists that they clothe them
selves while still wet and either go i'm
mediately to bed or take a rapid walk in
their bare feet. This is the treatment
he prescribed for the pope, and number
less instances of its efficacy are cited,
while the only thing urged against it is
that people unaccustomed to walking
barefoot are apt to bruise or cut their
feet while walking over the stony roads.
The reception of his patients occupies
Father Kneipp's time almost entirely ev-
cry day in the week and is interrupted
only when he has some function to per
form in the village church. He makes
no charge for his services, and whatever
may be given as an honorarium goes to
the support of his schools, orphanages
and various other institutions which he
has established. The good priest is over
70 years of age, but is always ready to
sacrifice his time and comfort for the
benefit of those who come to him for re-

Corrig by "a worm" A sudden ST.
lence thereupon fell on the Lau-wohr
men. One of them made some answer
which 1 forget, but the subject was not
pursued. l felt at once that the Lau-
wohr men knew great deal more about
the piast than they thought good to
communicate to me, who, though l could
speak their tongue, was yet a gentleman,
Sassenagh, and, in short, not one of
themselves. AS you are aware, those
people consider it unlucky to talk more
than is necessary about the supernat-
ural things and personages in whom
they believe and will never speak
about them with those who are not
quite in accord and sympathy with
themselves upon such subjects. The
peasantry who are communicative on
such subjects will be found almost in
variably to be persons who have to some
extent become emancipated from these
forms of superstition.
When the men rose to leave for the
village, which, with certain instinct
i've politeness that l have often noticed
in the islanders, they offered to do not

had partaken of my hospitality, | had

great size. I had noticed that when /

PRINCE PONIATOWSKl AND MISS BOURKE.
Sheis very accomplished young woman
and is we'll known in the society circles
of both New York and San Francisco.
She is not by any means a great heiress,
but has an independent income from the
estate of her father, which may or may
not be increased by a possible bequest
from her uncle.
Prince Poniatowski has specifically
denied being fortune hunter. He is not
wealthy, but says he has sufficient to
make him independent. He proclaims
his tendencies to be democratic and
thinks the day is not far off when titles
will be swept away. He believes in cul-
tivating men for their own worth, wheth-
er they have titles or not. The prince
can trace his lineage for near thousand
years. His ancestors were kings of Po-
land in the seventeenth century, and his
family has been eminent in statecraft,
war, music and literature. His elder
brother married an American girl, Miss
Maud ElyGoddard Of New York. The
prince is 80 years old.

came unusually rigid and impressive
and that he closed his mouth as if re-
solved not to speak again that evening.
l now led Crohoor into my office,
stirred up the fire, made IA good blaze,
and after some allusion to the hardship
which he had endured that day brewed
for him stiff tumbler of punch.
Though in my own private room and
surrounded by books, pictures and many
strange things savoring of quality
life," Crohoor's behavior was almost
gentlemanlike; at least it was charac-
terized by ease, simplicity and dignity.
Later on l spoke again of the disappear
ance of Mr.. Freeman sons, of the
great affliction of the family, and of
the exertions of myself and my men to
solve the mystery. Eventually Crohoor-
beg broke through his resolve and be-
fore he lay down that night told me all
he knew or believed about the piast.

MISS BOURkE AND HER PRINCE.


He Says He Is Not n Fortune Hunter and
Marries For Love.
Ever since Prince Andre Poniatowski
first came to the United States in 1892
Dame Rumor has kept herself busy try
ing to marry him to one or another of the
beautiful and wealthy girls who adorn
the society with which he most consorts.
But somehow the old lady always missed
her guess and never once selected the
only young woman to whom the prince
was really paying serious attention,
though the courtship was going on all
the while that he was presumed to be
wooing some one else.
Now the prince has taken the matter
ont of Dame Rumor's hands and has
himself announced his betrothal to a
beautiful California girl, Miss Maud
Alice Bourke, daughter of Mrs. Fl. F.
Tichenor of New FORK and niece of Hor-
ace Carpenter, a former mayor of Oak
land, Cal. Besides being her uncle, Mr..
Carpenter is also Miss Bourke's guardian
and trustee under her fathers will.
The young lady has been a member of
his family since her mothers second
marriage number of years ago, and it
has been supposed that she would in
herit large share of the millions that
he is credited with possessing.
Miss Bourke is handsome blond of
the fairest type. She was educated in
Europe and has travelled much abroad

The Advantage of Circle Sailing on an A rea
Nnta ~

| The Advantage of Circle Sailing on an Area
of Water SO Vast.
Tho Pacific is the great ocean of our
planet. In comparison with it the
north Atlantic is a mere strait and the
| Indian ocean nothing more than the sub
merged bench of a congeries of drowned
islands. Along the line of 20 degrees
south latitude the width of the Paci tiC is
1876 degrees of longitude, over one-third
of the circumference of the globe. Be
tween it and the south polar continent
| nothing intervenes. Its northern ex-
tremity was probably at one time round
ed off by the country which is now di-
vided between Alaska and Siberia.
When tho glacial masses moved to the
pole, the polar current Glove its way
through Behring straits and interposed
| Behring sea between the Pacific and
the polar ocean.
1t presents every form of ocean geog-
raphy. AT the two eXtremitles it is shall
low. There is IA bench running along
the Aleutian islands into the gulf of
Alaska which comes within 100 fathoms
of the surface, with occasional holes so
deep that no apparatus can find the bot
tom and be recovered without breaking
the wire, and there is Il corresponding
bench in the southwest portion of the
sea west of the meridian of 1870 degrees
where 100 fathoms is also the average.
Between this last bench and the latitude
of 80 degrees north there is a range of
submarine rocky mountains with steep
cliffs and sharp descents. Three or four
distinct mountain ridges with from two
to three miles of water between them
have been counted between the Ha-
waiian Islands and Australia.
On the Pacific can be found every va
riety of temperature and meteorology.
Out of Behring sea pOurs the icy cur
rent which cOols our shore in summer;
from the equator flow summer currents
warmer than the Atlantic gulf stream,
while the current which sweeps around
the south cape of Tasmania bears on its
bosom the longest icebergs ever seen.
AS it's name indicates, it is a pacific
ocean, swept by gentle trade winds, but
the most terrible typhoons described i'll
meteorological records have varied tn"
chronicles of its placid surface.
On sea of such extent circle sailing
must become matter of moment. The
Canadian steamers, sailing from oko-
hama in 35 degrees to Victoria in 40 de-
grees, cross the meridian of 100 degrees
in so degrees, having covered 1900
miles on the voyage, while the Pacific
Mail steamers. sailing by what appears
ON the map to be the straight line, have
to cover 4, 100 miles between San Fran
cisco and Yokohama. Assuming the
vessels to be equal in speed and to steam
at the usual rate of seagoing steamers
on the Pacific, the Canadian line enjoys
an advantage of about SO hours over
the American lines. This is reduced al
most to nothing when our ships puruse
the northern course and take the advan-
tage of circle sailing. San Francisco

The "Dcns" of Famous Authors.

A French chronicler has collected
some very curious statistics on subject
that has interest even outside Paris. He
was anxious to know how several select
ed great men furnished what we should
call their dens, what he calls their
workrooms. To gain access to all the
rooms was not easy, but fortunately
many of them were photographed, and
so the evidence was complete. The
chronicler's leaning was evidently to-
ward men of letters, and his results are
on the whole, surprising. Daudet S

mechanics, peasants and beggars are all
