1t is settled condition now that the
low-cut neck is to push its way to the
front. AS il to aid the adoption of this
idea, there is fascinating ami becom-
ing array of necklets appearing. These
may be worn over high collar, or. in
lieu of one. as taste dictates, and they
are a novelty which is taking firm
hold of feminine taste. With a white
null gown slightly open at the neck,
a necklet Of Black velvet straps fittiIg
closely to the neck and held upon up
right bars of brilIiants, is unfaifing,y
becoming and great relief TO the bare
ness of the neck. Two black veivet rib
bons tie this pretty affair in the back,
and the black velvet bow showing De-
hind the ears makes US forget TO miss
the high pointed collar. But these
necklets are by no means worn onlv
upon bare necks. They are most oft+n
used with q collared costume. Some
are made with network of steel bands
enriched hereend there by seed pearl
and Others are made of jet and tur

shout at the very top of their voices.
st. John baptizeth thee and the Lady
Virgin thy gOdmother' Each of them
is carrying a "bachoor'' that is no other
than the cluster that was hanging from
the tree made up of the thyme twigs,
cyclamen roots, the wicks and leavenless
dough.
Suddenly they rush to the trough be-
low the spout, dip this cluster three
times, then march away some distance;
then return, dip again, still shouting,
"St John baptizeth thee etc. This
goes on till the break of day, and then
the bachoor Is fastened again on the
tree and the performance IS repeated en-
each of the two following mornings. On
the third day the mother takes her Ear
eel of dough most revently, and In dead
earnest declares that the uuleaVened
dough had miraculously become lure
leaven. Woe to the unbelievers." She
then sits many pounds weight Of -four,
mixes it with the newly-made, pure !eav-
en-, and kneads it, and, sure enough,
the dough does rise. A piece about the
size of an orange Is separated from the
mass and kept to propagate the leaven
during the next twelve months, while
the rest of the lump is shaped into
cakes of various forms, fried in the
sweet olive oil, and served up as meals
to the household on that day and during
the following three or four days.

Christmas day church bells start ringing,
and the people begin to wend their way
from the various houses through the mar

church. We accompanied some of them
on more than one occasion in past years

5000 feet above the Mediterranean, with
the snow-clad hills in full view and in
this church the people stand on the stone
floor. Most of the windows are with
out glass, and the wind bowls and the
rain beats furiOusly outside. A few ta-
pers and oil lamps relieve the darkness
somewhat. The priest and the choris-
tiers or deacons mutter, chant or scream
the service in a manner more dead than
alive. How many American Christians
would attend service of this kind under
such conditions? The service lasts from
two to three hours, and then there is
rush for the various homes, where the
meal which has been longed for for for
ty days, and had been many houra pre-
pairing, is enjoyed.
During the day friendly festive visits
are made and received, presents ex-
changed, quantities of confect ons eaten,
and gallons of arak (whisky) drunk.

RELICS OF INDIANS.
Interesting Finds In Brown County,
South Dakota.

South Dakota.
ABERDEEN, S. D., Dec. 21.-(Special
Correspondence).-B. H. Rice, Of Fred
erck township, was in town one day TINS
week. The neighborhood in which Mr..
Rice lives contains many evidences that
the Indians made a favorite resort OF
that section of country at one time, and
probably buried many of their dead in
the numerous mounds that are found
Whereabouts. Half a mile from Mr.. Rice's
home there are the remains Of what was
evidently a fort built of earth. The
structure was some six rods In width
and eight rods In length, and it Is thought
may have been used by either the In
dams or the soldiers belonging to Gen.
Sibley's expedition. which was at this
point about the time of the Whitestone
battle, which was fought a few miles
north Of there. In the vicinity of the
remains there are several small mounds,
and in one of these, which had the ap-
pearance of being a grave of compare
lively recent date, Mr.. Rice secured a
number of articles, including the rem
nants of a soldiers blouse, the barrels
of shotgun and q number of bones. In
the early days of settlement it was not
an uncommon thing for skulls and bones
to be picked up on the prairie in the
neighborhoOd, and settlers are of the
opinion that at some time preceding the
Sipley expedition there was a good deal
of fighting between the Indians in that
part of the country, possibly between
the Chippewas and the Sioux. Peace be-
tween these nations was only finally
made after Bishop WhippIe began his
great work in Minnesota, and many
bloody battles were fought between them
as far west as the James river valley,
the Chippewas making savage forays
into the country of the Sioux and MAIN
tanning the ground gained until their
foes drove them back.
About six miles from the remains Of

mound is on the farm Of James Hearst.
1t is about sixty feet square and ten feet
above the surrounding country, and Mr..
Hearst has utilized the elevation as the
site for a barn. In digging under the
human bones, and found evidences that
the mound was built by men Of some race
who carried the earth some distance to
construct 1t. The earth composing the
mound is Of mixed kinds and the forma-

legend is told Of how, many years before
the settlement of the Dakotas, an army
paymaster was going across the plains
to reach post and was killed near this
mound. The story has 1t that after be-
ing followed long distance he eluded
his pursuers long enough to bury the
gold he had, and the mound in question
hid the treasure. No search has been
made for the gold by the settlers, and
Mr.. Hearst has not come across It as
yet in his excavating, and probably Will
not dig especially to lind it upon the
