| messed In Vienna.
The annual professions of Corpus
Christi, in which the Emperor takes
part, are like the proverbial peas in a
pod for family resemblance. But the
pageantry of the court has a perennial
attraction, and many English and
Americans go to Vienna every year to
witness 1t and to get a glimpse of that
unique sight-an Emperor praying and
kneeling in the streets. The monarch
| passes in state to the cathedral as ear
y as a. m. This year, as before, he
drove in a state carriage drawn by
eight white horses. The heir apparent
| drove with him. Behind him came the
magnificently accoutered Hungarian
and Austrian bodyguards.
The first service was held In the
church. In the meantime the route
| which the foot procession takes was
laid with boards. over which grass
was strewn. Here and there we're
erected affairs, and before them can
| opy for the imperial worshipers. A
| fanfare of trumpets announced that the
| procession had formed. The band
struck up THE Hymn to the Emper-
or" at the spot where its composer had
| dwelt as a choir boy of the ancient
| cathedral. The bells were rung, and
the silvery tongues OF little orphan
boys, heading the procession, were
heard singing well-known hymn. Be-
| hind them came acknowledged priests
and cowled monks reciting paternos-
| ters in soto voice, with hands crossed
on the breast. They looked sadly out
of place in the bright sunlight-these
the real rulers of clerical Austria. Next
| came the Wears of the various parishes
displaying their distinctive bannerets,
like temporal knights of old; then the
| civic corporation, then the officers OF
the household, the holders of the vari-
Gus Austrian orders. and the military
staff Lastly there appeared the mag
nificent palanquin Of state, under
which walked the cardinal bearing the
host, before which the soldiers knelt
and men reverently uncovered. Be-
hind was the solitary figure Of the
Emperor. He was bareheaded, and,
like the members of his court, bore
lighted candle He seemed in splen-
did health, and at the altar in the gar
den walked with elastic step to the
priedieu under the canopy. The arch
dukes took up their position behind
him. His Majesty wore full gener-
ais uniform-cocked hat with green
plumes, red trousers and the distinctive
tunic, with its pale lambent sheen OF
delicate green. A wonderful scheme
of color, with it's background ablaze
with the uniform of the guards of the
household, and representative OF all
the chivalry and nobility of the dual
monarchy, says the Pail Mall Gazette.
There was certainly strange In
congruity in this medieval display
amid it's garish modern surroundings.
The materially minded might have
regarded it as nothing more or less
than solemn mummery, but the sight
of the monarch and his subjects wor-
Shipping under the canopy of heaven
kept back the irreverent smile. The
moment was deeply impressive when
at a given signal, the whole OF the
court and soldiers knelt and the Kais-
err devoutly crossed himself in a 81
lence that was almost audible.

NEW MEXICO's LOST SPRINGS

There is a tradition in New Mexico,
mines once freely worked have been
lost. There is another tradition that
many springs have also been lost, and
it is understood that the losses of both
mines and springs were brought about
by the Indians. New Mexico is sup
posed once to have been much more
attractive than it is now. The Pueblo
Indians arose in revolt on the first full
moon in August, 1880. When they had
driven the Spaniards down into Old
Mexico they set to work to charge the
conditions so that there should be lit
tie temptation 10 recOnjuer New Mex
leo.
This idea inspired the filling Of
mines which had been opened and
worked during the former Spanish oc-
cupation. The Indians, with great
care, destroyed all traces of many
mines, il is said. This is not so sur
prising as what they did to the springs.
1t is tradition, and the statement is
commonly accepted as historic truth.
that in their labors to render the coun-
try as uninyiting as possible these In
dams suppressed numerous springs.
Such results were accomplished IN an
ingenious manner. The Indians dug
down and cleared away the dirt until
they found the creyices of the rock
through which the water came. They
/ took the fibrous bark OF a species Of
fir tree and tamped it into the crevices.
AS the material became water-soaked
it swelled until it plugged. Nothing re-
manned but to throw back the dirt and
to give to the surface the general arid
appearance OF the surrounding coun-
try. This was not temporary expedi-
ent. It resulted, according to the pres
ent theory, in the permanent destruc-
{ ton Of many sources of water.
To this day the appearance of slight
moisture often stimulates a search for
one Of the missing springs. Occasion
ally these searches are successful. The
earth is removed, the crevices are
found, the bark is picked out, and the
water, after more than two centuries
Of being turned back, resumes its nat
ural flow.
