Marco Polo Tells of Charmers Who Keep
Away Sharks.
When you leave the island of Seilan and
sail westward about go miles, you come to
the great province Of Maabar, which is
styled India the Greater. 1t is the best Of
all the Indies and is on the mainland.
In this province there are five kings,
who are own brothers. The province is
the finest and noblest in the world.
At this end Of the SS'ovince reigns one of
those five royal brothers, who Is a crowned
king, and l4s name is Sender Bandi Dayar.
In this kingdom they find fine and great
pearls, and I will tell how they are got.
The sea here forms a gulf between the
island of Seilan and the mainland, and
all round this gulf the water has a depth
Of no moro than 10 or ~ fAhoms and in
some places no more than NGwo fathoms,
The pearl fishers take their vessels great
and small, and proceed into this gulf,
where they stop from the beginning Of
April till the middle of May They go
first to place called Bettelar and then go
60 miles into the gulf Here they cast an
chor and shift from their large vessels into
small boats. The merchants divide into
various companies, and each of these must
engage a number Of men on wages, hiring
them for April and half of May, OF all
the produce they have first to pay the king
as his royalty, the tenth part, and they
must also pay thGse men who charm the
great fishes, TO prevent them from iniur-
ing the divers while engaged in seeking
pearls under water, one-twentieth part Of
all that they may take,
These fish charmers are termed abraia-
man. and their charm holds good for that
day only, for at night they dissolve the
charms SO that the fishes can work mis-
chief at their Will. These abraiaman know
also how Co charm beasts and birds and
every living thing When the men have
got into the small boats, they jump into
the water and dive to the bottom, which
may be at a depth Of from 4 to 2 fathoms,
and there they remain rs long as they are
able, and there they find the shells that
contain the pearls, and these they put into
net bag tied round the waist and mount
up TO the surface with them and then
dive anew Whom thcy can't hold their
breath any longer, they come up again,
and after little down they go once more,
and so they go on all day. These shells
are in shape like oysters or sea hoods, and
in these shells are found pearls, great and
small of every kind, sticking in tho flesh
of the shell1sh.
In this manner pearls are fished in great
quantities, for thence i'm fact, come the
pearls which are spread all over the world.
And the king of that state hath very
great receipt and treasure from his dues
upon those pearls -"Tha True Story OF

RAD Ten YEARS OF II
And Then the Right Thing In the
Right Place Alters the Condition
of a Bloomsbury Lady.

Mrs. r. A. Hess Of 7th street in Blooms
burg For ten years she has suffered from
kidney disorders Many things has Mrs.
Hess tried, looking for relief and cure. At
last her efforts were rewarded. Tho little
enemies to kidney disease have conquered
the distressing backache, the stomach dis
orders, the headaches, in fact all the aches
that follow where the kidneys fail to perform
the work designed for them by nature. This
is what she says: "The symptoms described
for kidney complaint were nine to a dot l
had pains sharp and piercing way down low
in the back l suffered from headaches that
were terrible in severity had some stomach
disorder the urine was highly colored and
came too frequently / was much worse after
doing any kind Of heavy work that required
the use Of or taxed my back, such as clean
ing house. etc, but this year | cleaned house
alone and never felt the least bit of incou-
venience thanks to Doans Kidney Pills.

The Bill Finally reported From the
Finance Committee,
CHANGES FROM D1NaLEY BILL.

Tho Amendments Made by the Senate
Committee Practically Amount to a
New Mensure-A Tnt Between Sem
otors German and Foraker.
Washington, May 5.-The tariff bill
was reported TO the senate yesterday,
to the surprise 'of senators and the
public. All the members Of the senate
finance committee were present at yes
terday's session. The Democrats an
nounced that they were against the
bill as a whole. They soon understood
that Senator Jones' of Nevada, was
going to vote with the Republicans,
and realized that there was no possi-
bility Of changing the bill. They had
no desire to make any factious oppo-
sition and when a NOTICE was made
by the Republicans to report the bin at
once the vote was taken promptly. All
the Republicans with Senator Jones,
of Nevada voted for the motion, and
all the Democrats voted against It,.
Later, in the senate, Mr.. Aldrich an
nounced that he would call up the bill
on Tuesday, May 1S
The Republican members of the COM
mittee say there is no statement to be
made now as to the effect of the bill,
the amount Of revenue to be raised by
it or the reductions. When the bill is
taken up i'm the senate Mr.. Aldrich viii
make such a statement in the opening
speech. 1T win raise revenue enough"
was the comment of Senator Allison,
assented TO by Senator Aldrich. They
estimated, however that the increased
revenue to be raised from beer would
be S130OO.O00, and from tea $4,000 000.
Senator Jones. Of Arkansas, the Dem
ocratic tariff leader, said that he ex.
pected there would be about six weeks
debate on the bill.
Several sections in the last part Of
the Dingley bin, which re-enacted the
present law, are stricken out. This
viii have the effect of leaving the pres
ent law stand and avoid discussion to
a great extent.
Tie new bill is radically different
from the Dingley bill, practically
amounting almost to another measure.
Many important schedules We're re.
written entirely.
The time for the bill to take effect is
July /. 1897, instead of May l, as pro-
vided in the house.
Senators German of Maryland and
Foraker Of Ohio had lively tilt in the
senate during the considering of the
civil sundry appropriation bill. There
was added interest in the controversy
from the fact that Mr.. Foraker is a
newcomer, and this was his maiden
effort, while Mr.. German is one Of the
veterans Of the senate. Mr.. German
made a severe criticism of reckless ex.
travagance in appropriations. Mr.,
Foraker replied, addressing his re-
marks directly and personally to the
Maryland senator, who was in the
habit, he said, of lecturing the senate
on its duty to the people. whose tri-
| bune he assmed to be-" The free
! homestead bill was passed by a vote of
! 40 to II. The Morgan Cuban resolution
! again went over. The sundry civil bill
was considered but was not completed
up to the time of adjournment.

TO CONTINUE TIE WAR;.
The Greek Ministry Maintains It's
Belligorent Attitude.
FOREIGN INTERVENTION OFFERED

Notwithstanding the Hostile Attitude
OF the Ministry, 1t Is Belieyed by the
Greek Troops at PhnrsaIos That
Peace VIII soon BE Declared.
London, May 5.-The Athens CORE
spondent of The Times telegraphs that
the Greek cabinet. after hearing the
reports from the ministers who had re-
turned from the front. resolved to con-
tinue the war. The decision of the
government is momentous, but it is
difficult TO say whether it is absolutely
final General Smolensld has declined
to accept the post of chief of staff of
the Grown Prince Constantin. as he
prefers to remain with his own brigade,
The foreign ministers have rendered
the intervention of the powers to
Greece, but the government has re-
served its reply. 1t is rumored in the
Greek camu at Pharsalos however,
that peace viii shortly be proclaimed
1t is now denied that an officer has
been appointed to succeed Colonel Vas
SOS, in command of the Greek forces
in Crete. This is interpreted at Athens
as a prelude TO the recall of the Greek
troops from the island, and as proof
of the conclliatory intentions of the
new cabinet.
Colonel Vassos has been appointed
to succeed Colonel Manos, who has
been in command of the Greek forces
operating in Epirus EN-Minister Me-
taxas replaces General Macras, and
Major Constantinides has been re-
called from Crete and appointed chief
of Prince Constantine staff.
The special correspondent of The
Times with the Turkish forces at Vel
estino telegraphs under date of April
30 that the Turks have captured the
village Of Kephalo, at the foot of the
pass, adding that with the reinforce
ments then en- route from Larissa the
Turks would undoubtedly be able to
force the dehle and, if necessary, cap
ture Velestino.
The Turkish porte has replied to the
French, Russian and British embassies,
giving IT'S consent to their proposal to
protect the Greeks but only during
the period allowed for their departure.
The porte adds that all treaties with
Greece are suspended for the time be-
