sHaKE.rEARE AND VIRGINIA.
The C~olonfsts mt Jnnestown Were
the Poets Contemporaries.

- ~
The first permanent English settle
ment in America was at Jamestown,
Va, in 1907. William Shakespeare
died nine years later, in 1916. In Au-
gust, 1920, negro slay es were first in
troduced into Virginia. From 1907 on,
the colonization of Virginia from Eng
land proceeded steadily, and briskly,
too, for that age, it being especially
noteworthy that this colonization fair
ly represented all England, and was
not restricted to any class or sect.
Moreover, the England of that de-
was S~hakespeare's England-the Eng
land from which he drew his charac-
ters, manners, speech, proverbs, and
particularly all those traits and
touches hat give definite date and To-
cality 10 BIS works. They were
S~hakespeare's contemporaries who
came ~ with Capt. John Smith and
his successors-the very men and
women whom he knew and drew so
well, some Of them also knowing him,
% only as a dramatist ard actor, but
also personally. There is a tradiaion,
not fully verified, nor yet wholly dis
credited, that among these early colo
nists was one OF the executors OF
Shakespeare will, who lived and died
at Freiericksburg-it being commonly
understood and accepted that, until
the late val fragments Of the tomb
stone of his executor could still be
seen In an old cemetery OF that town.
From 1920 TIE African settlement Of
the colony and its English settlement
proceeded together, rari rassu. The
ncgro ~colonists. of course as slaves
and harbarians. were put at the lowest
and coarsest labor. and there, working
side by side with English Hodge, from
him they learned such English and
English folklore as they acquired.
Later. Hodge and the negro separated.
and ii was not long before the latter
was practically segregated, Hodge
progressing more or less. with some
exceptions, while Sambo. black and q
slave, was rapidly hedged abont by
strict laws and customs that set him
apart and kept him stationary. To
educate him was a crime: but Hitter
ate and barharous as he was, TIE first
civilization al d education he recei red
were English, fresh from the soil of
Shakespeare's England, and to this
day he legibly retains Sh~akespeare's
mark as originally impressed upon
him. OF course. ven in slavery. there
were freedmen. house and own ser
wants. and a few other negroes from
whom this impress was partially re-
moved by their opportunities and asso-
Citations, and many more have lost IL
since emancipation and the fee school
have come; but the mass of rural ne
groes, with some whites who have
been subjected TO very similar condo
tiOns. still remind n Of the great
dramatist by their doings and sayings,
their proverbs, omens. signs and pecu-
liarities OF speech. They sometimes
exhibit an apparent familiarity with
Shakespeare in their words and
phrases but they do not know him at
all-never heard of Eim.-Lippincott's

NEW TRANSPARENT CURTAINS.
From Within you Can Look Right
Through Them.

A new invention for the production
Of a fabric for window blinds is re-
ported from Yorkshire, England. The
material and apparatus employed and
process adopted in the manufacture
give a fabric that is transparent from
the room, but Opaque from without.
The fabric contains linen, aluminium.
isinglass, bOrax, tallow, etc. The ap-
paratus contains a cylinder filled with
a patent classifying compound, I'M
which bobbins OF linen yarn IRE
placed. The yarn is saturated and
coated with this compound as Il is
wound off the bobbins, and drawn
through an opening at the top of the
cylinder; it is then passed V e a
roller situated above this opening, and
down 10 a series Of heating and dry
ing plates; then around another roller.
to the reminding arrangement of the
apparatus, where the yarLs are wound
upon the bobbins again, ard are then
ready for a knitting machine.
The inventor claims that this blind
is so flexible that it can be easily
rolled up and down; that 1t is so trans
parent that a room is not darkened
when II is drawn. that while those
inside a room car see through the
blind almost as perfectly MS though it
were glass, those outside cannot see
inside the room. unless the latter is
lighted most brilliantly and darkness
prevails outside; ard that it is az
tistic and therefore pleasing to the
Eye. The blinds shown are hand
painted, but ii is expected that In the
future 1t will be possible to print
them by machinery. and thus reduce
the cHl cps- OF pioduct'J1 so that the
cost c! hitting windows wiz, MT ne
much greater than that incurred by
ordinary blinds.-The Upholsterer.

Keeping the Farm clear OF Weeds,

The government agricultural depart
ment is trying to impress upon the
farmers of this country the truth OF
the familiar maxim, God helps those
who help themselves" The direct loss
in crops, the damage to machinery
and stock and the decrease in the
value of land due TO weeds In this
country, Is estimated at tens Of mia-
lions of dollars a year. This loss 1s
sustained almost wholly by the farm
ers. A government report urges Ia
cooperation of the whole agricultural
community on his question. In many
cases weeds cannot be exterminateu.
n their reduction TO a state OF con-
| parative harmlessness is all that can
be looked for. Land n should oe

fore they become established as ag-
gressive weeds on farms. This is prSc-
tically the only possible means OK ex-

A c1TY,s CRIME CENTER.
The Tenderloin District I'm Sew
York and Its Recent Changes.

The original Tenderloin precinct in
the annals of the police department of
New York was the eighth, the station
house OF which was in Prince street
and is now in Macdougal street. Its
boundaries are Canal street, Houston
street, Broadway and the North river.
Ii was a great resort for thieves,
crooks and disorderly persons, and
business. In 1870, when the eighth
precinct was at the height of its de-
plorable prominence, the arrests wero
$500 in a year, against $500 in h
twenty-ninth precinct, the present
Tenderioin. The captain best known
in connection with the eighth was
Charles Mcdonald, letter known as
Lightning Charley" He was ap-
pointed in 1870, and gained his title
from service in the Thirty-ifth-street
station.
With the growth of the city further
up town, the moving away of the big
hotels. and the encroh .hments OF
stores and warehouses in the eighth
precinct, the fifteenth, or Mercer
street precinct, became the Tenderloin.
Its reign was brief. The t~wenty-ninth
NOW the nineteenth) precinct, the
present Tenderloin, extends from
Fourteenth TO Forty-second street.
and the western boundary is Seventh
1t takes in both sides OF
Broadway and has n larger number of
hotels than any other precinct in this
city. The part that gave II It's I'M
savory reputation lies between Sixth
and Seventh and Twenty
third and Thirty-fourth streets. AT
one time both sides of Sixth avenue
were largely taken up with conce
saloons, and among these in the Ten
derloin were the buckingham, the Star
and Garter, the CremOrne, the Empire,
the Sans Souci, the Argyle, and the
Haymarket. Sixth avenue, between
Twenty-third ard Thirty-fourth
streets. at that time was as much
crowded by night as Broadway is now
by day. Arrests were many, II
strangers visiting New York came TO
this neighborhOod as n OF b sights
of the town.
At present the Tenderloin is a name
chiefly. Most of the establishments
which gave ii a national, if not inter
national, i%ll-repute, have either moved
away or have been closed for good.
The side streets between Sixth II
Seventh avenues a I'd Twenty-fifth n
T~wenty-sixth streets are mostly occu-
pied by members CT the French col
ony. 1t is in the heart of the region of
the tables d'hote. Tw enty-sevelth
street. notorious in old Tenderloin
days, is now occupied chiefly by colI
Ored residents: Thirty-first and Thir-
ty-second streets are given over TO
business uses. Thirty-frst street is
mostly occupied by German tenants.
A new church has been built there
within two years. Sixth avenue is
now as quiet ar midnight as any other
New York thoroughfare up town-de-
cidedly more so than Third or Eighth
avenue. The number of arrests in the
nineteenth precinct last year was
1853. while in the fifteenth Mercer
street, the arrests were 1910. The
eighth precinct, the Tenderloin of
other days. had a total Of 1900 prison
ers, of whom 1920 were men, mostly
for minor offenses.-New York Sun.

STORY OF A
The story Of the Famous Hope Hue
M as IL Was and Is.

The story of the Famous Hope Hue
Diamond as IL Was and La.
One Of the earliest doubts harbored
by the youthful intelligence Of the
wisdom Of its instructors is when 1t
learns that neither black swans nor
black pearls are especially rare. Had
p~royerbial philosophy given its mind
to blue diamonds it would have
alighted on something really rich and
rare, since, although diamonds md
their way into market, diamonds or
an unmistakable blue are exceedingly
scarce. The Hope blue diamond
of which London has heard so much
recently, in the course of the action
brought by young Mr.. Tasker against
q firm OF Bond-street jewelers., is
probably the finest gem Of its kind
known to exist. Its blue is so deep
as TO be almost indigo-a tint unap-
preached even by the sapphire. The
history of the stone is curious. IL
appears, indeed, To be only a portion
of a larger stone with a pedigree
which goes back some 2JU years.
T%avernier, the famous French trav-
eler. who has left such entertaining
memoirs Of his journeys to the east In
search Of precious stones, bought ii in
India in 1641. In the rough IL
weighed 1121a carats; and in 166S IL
was sold TO Louise QuartorZe, who ap-
pears TO have had II cut. When. in
i!t5. the then almost moribund Roi
Soliel received the Persian ambassa-
dor, he wore his diamond upon a rib
bon around his neck. From this date
until the revolution nothing more is
heard of the gem. Then, among the
French regalia deposited in the Garde
Meuble. there was found a blue dia-
mond weighing 61s carats, which. IL
IS believed, would be a likely weight
for Tayernier's stone after cutting.
In September, 1892, the diamond was
stolen, and was for some years lost
sight Of. In 1880, however, a similar
stone, differently cut. turned up.
There Is a good deal Of mystery about
its pedigree; bus the experts cen to
be satisfied that IL was either a por-
ton OF the Tavernier diamond. or the
identical stone reduced to AL carats
by recruiting. From the hands of the
dealer who possessed II some years
ago ii passed 10 the late Mr.. Hope.
from whom il obtained its present
name. He gave f1S,000 for IL, which
was considered rather a low price.
Now IL appears to be lin ~chancery,"
and possibly before long ii may have
a new possessor.-Philadelphia Rec
