PANAMA BELLS IN CINCINNATI.
Three Hundred Years Have Vanished
Since They Were Cast.

Three Hundred Years Have Vanished
Since They We're Cast.
Two old and remarkable bells have
just been received by the Cincinnati
Bell foundry company from Panama,
South America, says the Cincinnati En-
quirer.
The gentleman who shipped them
from Panama states in q letter that
these bells have an interesting history.
The letter reads:
"You might desire to know something
of these two old bells sent you outside
of commercial value. The small one
wcs cast in the year 1000 and the large
one in 1920. They have been useless
as bells for years but have served 10
carry back the thoughts of the Spanish
populace here to the old days when this
cc in 1t was not so great and so
thiclcly populated as at present.
Il am sorry that public spirit was not
of sufficient character to keep them
as relic of the days when our fore
fathers fought with the natives and the
wild animals, which in that time were
plentiful in this region.
"The small bell was first placed in a
served both as call to worship and an
alarm when there was danger from
the natives. For many years it re-
manned in this old church but was
eventually transferred to the steeple Of
a new churcN at about the year 1900.
From this edifice it was again moved
to newer one, always with great
pomp and ceremony and each time con-
secrated by the bishop. But, like all
other things of earth, it became old,
broken and was finally abandoned as
useless and thrown among a lot of
church rubbish, though it had his
tory of the country and is probably the
Oldest bell in America.
1.-THE history of the large bell, cast
in 1920, is similar to that of the small
one, excepting that it was placed in the
steeple of the San Rafael church and
remained there until it had become
useless.
The bell cast in 1920 bears the fsl-
lowing inscription:
IS. Rafael, Ammo Domini De, 1920"
These two old bells are peculiar in
shape as compared with those of the
present day. The top of the bells is
nearly as large as the base. They are
made of the highest quality of copper,
with mixture of silver. Both of the
bells indicate that they have received
rough usage. From all appearances it
seems that after the clappers were lost
a sledge-hammer was used to strike
them. The Cincinnati Art museum has
made application for these bells and
they will be placed on exhibition there.
The small bell weighs 100 pounds and
the large one 200. The crown by which
the bells were hung seems to have
rotted away in part from old age.

This spring we found that some of
the cane seat chairs that had been
roughly used in the kitchen were sag
ging and needed II general renovation.
They were turned upside down and
the cane was washed well with hot
water and soap, and rinsed thor
oughly; then cloths rung out of hot
water were spread on the seats, and
they were allowed to dry in the open
air, after which they were vanished
and they looked and wore literally
like new"

The wealth producer and the wealth

One of these classes must go dowr

convinced Of her guilt he was. 1t was
the almost universal feeling, and
while nobody desired to see her hang,
1t was a relief to know that such a fiend
would be removed from society. l do
not believe there was a single person
who heard the evidence who did not
believe 1t was a just verdict Even
her recreant lover must either have
been a participator OF believed In her
guilt, for Immediately before the trou-
BILE came he set sail for New York and
left her to bear the brunt of her infamy
alone.
There is, however, one unfortunate
circumstance connected with this case
and to be an impartial chronicler
must relate 1t. At the time Florence
Maybrick was sentenced, the head of
the home office was an old woman
ramed Henry Matthews, queens coun-
sci by grace of God and Queen Vic
toria, who, in remitting the death PEN
atty to penal servitude for life said he
did so because she had attempted to
kill her husband" She was never tried
for that offense. and the majority of
the leading papers of England at the
time contended she should either have
been hung or let go free. If her friends
take up that contention they may yet
he able to procure her release; if they
work on the ground of trying to con-
vince people of her innocence, partic-
ularly anyone who is acquainted with
the facts of the case, they've got a
mighty long ridge to plow. 1t would be
as difficult to make. me renounce my
convictions as to her guilt as it would
he to make me disbeleve there is So
lar system. Guilty she is--a self-con-
feSSed adulteresS and poisoner.
