Moorish Goatherds Play an instrument Such
as VirgiPs Shepherds Used.
Made of Hollow Cane With Vent Holes
Burned OUTFLOW II
iS Tuned.

Written for The Evening Star.
"Tirra-lirra-lirra!" came a clear and
sweet note like that of flute from away
up the rugged mountain side.
What Is that" asked one of the ladies'
We were travelling on muleback through
northern Morocco with a native guide and
muleteers.
1T is boy" said Gilali, the guide. He
guards the goat, the voca. Holar' And
Gilali. who speaks very queer mixture of
French, Spanish and English, waved his
hand up at the big hills.
Presently the strangest figure began hop
ping down from rock to rock away up the
slope 1t was a very tiny figure, and its
legs were bare, but the head was COM
pletely covered with a deep cape which
formed a part of very ragged gelaba or
coat. By and by we could see two rows of
great white teeth cleaning in the shadow
of the hood, and then the Moorish shep-
herd boy came shyly down to the rough
bride path and held up the whistle that
we had heard so far off.
Gilali spoke a few Moorish words to the
boy, and then turned to US. ''Diez cent?
mos he said. So We handed out a coin
American money, and the Soatherd boy
gladly handed up his whistle, which had
been the only companion of his lonely
watch for so loEg time that it was
whistle was seven eight inches long
and made out of joint of native cane or
rush, exactly as a Yankee boy makes one
out of a piece of elder stalk from which
the pith has been pushed out.
But it was a good deal better than the
Yankee boys whistle. The square end was
closed by joint of the cane. In the bot
tom. near the middle, was a hole burned
perfectly round-for, of course the Moorish
boy has no gimlet On the upper side was
"A row of seven such holes, or vents The
first and second and the sixth and seventh
vents were nearer together than the 9TH
els. Presently We bought another such
whistle from a second ragged goatherd boy.
and went forward gaily, blowing on them
until we came to a bad place in the road
where the guide made Us attend to the
mules.
Why. it's just like the shepherd boys
that triil their pipes in the bucolics of Vir-
gill; said one of the ladies'; land why not?
The Romans conquered all these countries
in northern Africa: and even before them
the Greeks and Phoenicians. who sailed
these shores, must have known how to
make 'pipes-o-pan.' l feel just as IL 1 were

After we had passed the bad place in the
road, Gilali, who may have been a goatherd

IN A STATE OF SLAVERY.
Terrible Condition of Affairs I'm IN,
MnnnHua Labor Market,


Mnnn1ua Labor Market.
Correspondence Of the Associated Pressl
MANAGUA, Nicaragua, December II, 1896
A terrible state of affairs prevails in the
labor market here, and the system of selling
labor has resulted in reducing very large
rumbers of men, women and children to a
state of slavery. Owners of coffee estates
recently held a meeting with the object of
Influencing the government of Nicaragua
to establish in Cuba a labor agency to in
duce Cuban laborers to migrate to Mica
ragua. Men and women here are now en-
deavoring by every possible means. ex-
cepting an armed revolution, to escape from
the servitude incident to the sale Of their
laEor, authorized by the constitution of
Nicaragua and enforced on them, as vigor-
ously as possible, by mill i1ary power until
the money or goods advanced to them, In
terest thereon and heavy fines for delin-
Quency, have been paid in full by labor al
lew rates.
Hundreds of men, women and children.
who have sold their labor for small sums
of merchandise or money advanced TO them,
are arriving at the cities In the coffee dis
tricts from the mountains In the interior.
to gather the coffee crop of 1896. Many
others who have also sold their labor are
delaying the commencement or their work
or refusing to accept the hard conditions of
their contracts and are being hunted from
one retreat to another by squads OF sol
d.ers. who have been assigned to the work
of capturing these delinQuents and forcing
them to comply with their contracts.
This years crop of coffee in Nicaragua Is
estimated at about 80 per cent OF a fun
crop. The deficiency has been caused by
irsuf1icient rains during the year. The
twigs on which the coffee crop OF 1897 Is to
he borne are from drouth SO small and
short as not to be able to yield a full crop
in many estates in Nicaragua next year.
Owing to the scarcity-of agricultural Ia
borers the difficulties experienced with the
workmen, and the want of sufficient rains
at many places in Nicaragua during the last
three years, may holders of coffee estates
are offering their places for sale.
A number OF persons In Nicaragua, es-l
peciaHy In the eastern portion. are making
preparations TO cultivate sugarcahe instead
of coffee. as heretofore.
