IN LEAGUE With MAGIC.
Some Heathens Who Did Good Missionary
Work Mt a Pumn


Work At a Pump.
Lobengula, the late king of the Mata-
belle of South Africa, was afraid of Rev.
Z. Carnegie. an English missionary at
Hope Fountain, several miles from Bu-
lawayo. The Matabele warriors, ON the
other hand, looked with suspicion on
the missionary and all his works, but
they knew better than to molest the
friend of their king.
Time after time IL passing the mis-
sion house they noticed a force pump at
work, supplying water for the family
and for irrigating the garden. Not IN
derstanding what ii was for, their un-
tutored minds concluded it was some
sort of magic. 1t was "+intagati, " or
bewitched, and they watched to see
how ii was managed that they might
turn the white mans magic against
himself.
One moonlight night party of picked
warriors repaired TO the bank of the
stream where the pump was. On try
ing it they were jubilant to find that
two men at either handle could do the
trick. Turn and turn about they kept
the pump going for two hours, deter
mined that the missionary should have
all the magic he wanted and balance
in haEd
Then. exhausted, they went home
ward, ignorant of the fact that they
had filed the missionary S tank to over
flowing. His good wife hoped that a
similar supply Of magic" might be
furnished every week. = New York

How she Work on = Suspension Bridge Is
Done.
The workmen on tbs cables follow
closely after the builders Of the iron
roadway. These men are engaged in
more perilous employment, if anything,
than the former They climb nimbly
up to the very summit Of the huge tow
ers. and then without fiinching proceed
60 descend the inclined cables. 1t makes
the spectators below trelnble for them,
so dangerous is the descent. but the
workmen have no fear, else they would
be untitled for the duty required Of
them. After sliding down the cable a
dozen feet, they stop and turn around
ard face the towers. The men working
the derrick slowly swing out to them
the end of a cable about three inches IN
diameter. Another man carries out 20
them by means of small hand pulley
and rope a redhot band of steel, which
the cable workers seize with their
pinchers and clasp around the large cable
on which they are resting Then while
the steel is still hot and malleable, the
small cable, with its end secured in q
thick bolt of steel, is brought into posi-
tion. and the end welded into the red
hot steel band encircling the main ca
BILE. The workmen pound and forge
away, hammering, twisting and bend
ing the metal before il coOls of. The
welding must be done rapidly, and the
worLnen have no time TO stop and think
of the dangerous position in which they
are placed. Probably the only support
they have comes from their legs, which
they wind tightly around the cable, as
they swing their arms and upper part
of the body with violent exertion.
When this cable is forged into its
place, the workmen take few moments
of rest, and then slide down to the next
joint, where the same operation is re-
peated. Cable after cable is attached in
this way until there is q regular tangle
Of steel work and dangling cables, look
ing for all the world like spider web.
But there is order in this colossal spider
web such as never existed in the home
Of the insect that weayes the webs in
cur homes and woods. Gradually one
part oi the bridge after another is fin
ished. and when the ''false work" of
scaffolds is removed the structure stands
out III all the beauty of itsfinished state.
The bridge builders must not only be
skilled in their work, but they must
have the hardihood and daring Of the
sailor, for most of their work is per-
formed at an altitude higher than the
tOpnast Of any sailing vessel. They la
Dor IN all kinds Of weather-when the
sun is pouring down its torrid rays in
midsummer or when the mercury regis
ters zero in winter.
To them their dizzy height is no more
than the is OF 20 feet are to the ordi
nary carpenter or house painter. They
seldom use ladders. They would be con
stantly in the way. If they want to
reach higher framework, they climb
nimbly up the steel works or jump
lightly across from one truss to another.

girder is a commonplace occurrence to

Artificial Cream.

the whites OF two eggs, beaten stiff,

JAPANESE MUSIC.

There's Art In 1t That Cannot Be Ana
lyzeJ by OceidentsIs.
To one who never heard it III is impos-
sible 10 give a definite idea of Japanese
music, and to one who hears it for the
first time it must either repel or strange
ly attract for its fantastic intervals and
fractional tones demand totally new
sense Of musical appreciation rud. call
into being new set Of musical sensa-
lions. Ii is as if hitherto closed door
between sense and spirit had been sud-
denly thrown open. One feels that if
reinearnation be true, one might through
this door alone remember and recon-
struct those vanished existenoes. Only
in the tones of their own unguisu, a
bird which has but three notes, have /
heard anything so occult
japanese music is like japanese art,
which. with its unperceived spirit,
sense and symbolism, its strange method
Of brush handling might seem merely
grotesque at first, but which gradually
reveals TO the initiated eye mysterie
within mysteries of artistic form and
perception, until presently one finds
oneself encompassed by a new art
world. where technic is subordinated
to feeling and whose finest effects are
obtained through the art of ON ssion.
AS, for instance. in the greatest paint
ings of Fujiyama, the sacred mountain
itself is discovered to be the bare,
white, unpainted silk, as if color and
line could be but the boundaries and
outer confines of pure isolated idea So
in japanese music, its methods are not
ours, its climaxes come in crashes of ST.
lence, in sustained and soundless pause,
the notes snbOrdinated TO a silent some
thing. an inner sense which, while re-
straining or even repressing sound, is
the very ecstasy of musical sensation.
In vain we attempted to analyze this
subtle effect, TO reduce it to the terms
of Our musical consciousness. IL defied
and eluded US as spirit must always defy
and elude sense, and we perforce con-
tented ourselves with following the
strange, rounded, isolated notes, sus-
tanning ourselves breathlessly ON Its
wonderful pauses and yielding 10 the
irregular cadenced charm Of the singer,
whose face, at first so unremarkable,
seemed 20 grow Of a shining effulgence
as she thus interpreted 10 as an un-
known world-Washington Star.
