Reports are coming from Madagas-
car Of the vast mineral wealth Of the
island. One writer says there is prom
Use Of untold wealth being obtained by
the working of the "Smith conces-
sions." He has seen parcels of nuggets
weighing from one to fifteen ounces,
and from camp superintendent by an
Englishman four hundred ounces were
taken i'm one week. There are three
hundred men in one place working on
a piece of ground only sixty yards
square and only using native spades
and wooden washing pans. Some new
reef is found every week. The miners
are naturally much concerned about
the probable French invasion, and En-
glishmen are lrging the home govern
ment to remind France that according
to the terms of the Zanzibar convention
the French protecorate cannot impair
the rights and immunities which Brit
ish subjects enjoy in the island, and
that religious tolerance, liberty of wor-
ship and religious teachings must be
insured

were so numerous that at distance il
resembled gala occasion instead OF
the most solemn of terrestrial ceremo-
MES. The obsequies took place niue
days after death and were gruesome
indeed. Hired musicians played
mournful airs, n clown took off the
dead mans peculiarities and the fe-
male mourners gave loud utterance TO
their grief, beating their breasts and
tearing their hair. With the wealthy
the body was carried on an ivory
couch and covered with gold and pur-
pie.
Appius Claudius, censor Of Rome,
commenced the construction of the APP
plan Way 2,2OS years ago. In the way
of road building it never has had an
equal. 1t was the greatest engineer
ing triumph of the Romans. The, ex-
pense of its construction exceeded even
that of the viaducts. Mountains had
to be cut through, valleys filed up,
ravines bridged and swamps embarked
to give Rome perfect highway to the
southernmost point Of Italy. The road
bed was of the most substantial char
acter. The excavation was carried four
feet and the loose soil was carefully re

DisapDointed.

A poor, bedraggled, tempest tossed
looking woman came to the office of a
certain aid society and told such a
narrowing tale of poverty that the
agent of the society finally said:
''Well, I'll send you a quarter of a
ton Of coal, and think we can do some
thing about your rent"
"Now, that's very kind an obligin',
I'm sure" was the reply. II need the
coal, an the landlords been rippin'
round awful about the rent, but I'll tell
you, my daughter Maudie has been
asked to be bridesmaid at Mag Dukes
weddin'. Mays cashier in meatshop
up on our street, and Maudie's bawlin'
her eyes out cause she amt got no
white kid slippers to be bridesmaid in.
Now, If you could see your way to help
her to the slippers I'd stand the land
lord off another week, an I'd manage
to git along without any coal. I'm SO
sick O. Mnudie's bawl," and the look of
unrest deepened on the woman's face
when she was told that Maudie would
have to keep on ''bawling' so far as
that society was concerned.-Detroit

persons may solicit insurance for LlOyds

The Senate also passed bill making an
appropriation of $4,000 for training

Ypsilaati. The Jameson bill repeating
the law under which Roman Catholic
bishops held real estate in trust, which

General Martinez Campos, who Is in
command of the Spanish forces in Cuba,
has been for twenty eight years a leading
Spanish soldier and statesman. He was
an adherent of Sagasta, and had very
considerable influence in the army. Since
1879. when he became minister of war
and president of the. council, he has been
conspicuous in the politics of Spain, al
though not always in Office. His sword
has won for him his prominent position
in Spain. The only Office he owes to
politics is that of marshal. The Carlist
and Cuban campaigns bear ample witness
to his prowess in the field. General Cam
pos is sturdy. swarthy complexioned
Spaniard. about ffty-five years old and Of
medium height. He is energetic and per-
severing and smokes necessarily. His
system of conquering has been simple,
but effective, and has demonstrated that

1t was laid and to this day in spots It
is as good as when the road was opened
to the triumphant legions Of Rome.
About the city the roadway has beer
macadamized, but at Terracina and In
the Forum you can see the same blocks
that sustained the Roman chariots CEN
turtles before the birth Of Christ.
One of the most impressive specta-
Giles along this highway is the Tomb Of
Caecilia Metalla, built 1900 years ago.
1t lies two miles outside the ancient
gates on an eminence overlooking the
Campagna, is circular In form, with
an embattled top, seventy feet high
and sixty feet in diameter. 1t was
built Of brick and the outside coated
with travertine marble which was re-
moved during this century to adorn
the Fountain Of Trevi. The walls are
twenty-five feet thick, and within the
tower is circular dome-shaped cham
Der fifteen feet in diameter. Here~rest-
ed the remains of Caecilia Metalla, wife
Of Crassus, the son Of the celebrated
TriuJnyir. At different periods 1t
served as fortress and has stood sew
eral sieges. Not far from this sepul-
cher is the spot where 5000 Christians
were put to death by the Romans be-
cause they would not turn pagan. The
scene of the massacre Is marked by Il
slab recounting the fate of the mar
tyrs.
Another striking tomb bordering the
t.
Cestius, a patrician and statesman who
died II Is. G. The style is Egyptian
and the material is brick, which Is
covered with marble blocks. The top
Is ninety feet from the ground. Its
ancient character Is heightened by the
Gate of st. Paul, which 1t adjoins, and
which Is one of the best preserved of
the entrances to the walled city. The
gate is even older than the tomb and
is an object of surprising interest to
the tourist. st. Paurs Church, next to
St Peters, the most magnificent in
Rome, Is beyond this gate on the APP
plan Way. Near it st. Peter and st.
Paul bade farewell to each other.
Farther along is the Church Of DOM
inie Quo Vadis where, when St Peter
was fleeing from the death of a mar
tyr, our Lord miraculously appeared 10
him In human form and admonished
him to go back and face his prosecutors
and give up his life for the sake of the
people, to which st. Peter assented.
On this visitation the footprints of the
Divine Master were impressed on
stone, one of which is preserved in the
Church of st. Sebastian and shown to
visitors. :

time per week to work for her DOVER,
and generally brings her husband a
bed, with two or more pairs Of linen
sheets apd wedded coyerlet; q chest
(cassone), and from ten to twenty five
pounds in money. She has usually a
good stock Of body linen, two winter
working dresses, several cotton ones for

Every peasant girl has earrings and
a necklace (vezzo) of several rows Of
irregularly shaped pearls or Of red
coral. The richer ones have a gold
chain and watch.
Before the marriage a valuer (stima-
tore) is called in, who makes out a list
of her possessions on stamped paper,
which is given to the head man Of her
future husbands family. Should she
be left childless widow, he returns the
dover, and she generally leaves the
house
