~arth thai Rotterdam l. a very Pse,
" eiiv. cannai imagine anything
cleaner. aud even che outside ai the
bnildlngs the bricks and STONES
looked fresh and clean. well uigh
"spatiess town. Sach daIutIness of
cul9riBg | have never befpre seen IN
buildings
wish I could ten vaa about our
experiences in Rotterdam that after
uoon after dinner. and If some Of
the interesting things wc saw. but
have said tao much already aud yoa
vii grow weary
The next morning. >afgrday. We
took the train for Cologne. at Em-
merich. on the line between Holland
and Germany. Our baggage was
examined again and not even opened
We t0ok dinner that dav in the
dining ear, and must say "a was
well. ID WASH a. nice a. a dining car
IN America Things were not served
a La Carte. and the dinner cost three
marks or seveutv-fve cents.
40 Cologne We STAYED until Mon
dsy morning. and while there were
in that wonderful cathedral the
"Colner Dom. also we're la the St
Agnes church which is very besati-
ful IN a smaller way.
Monday morning We took the train
from Cologne % Mannheim. and
since it follows the Rhine very close
ly we saw something Of the Rhine
scenery, many ruins Of old castles.
the Loreley, and the Maase-
thurm. the tower in the middle of
Rhine in which that old abbot was
eaten up by mice
In Mannheim we STAYED several
DAYS, then went TO Landau where we
stayed ten DAYS Landau Is a very
old town, and both in itself and sur
roundings oilers many sights of in
terest 10 the tourist. Should those
tourists happen TO be young women
from America. or elsewhere, for that
matter, | guess, the four thousand
fine looking soldiers quartered there
will not be the objects of least inter
est in the town. But what pleased
me most about Landau nov. You
needn't smile, for it really did was
the fact that 1t is situated In the
mountains, not mountains such as
we have in Colorado, but lower and
covered from base to summit with
trees, trees planted there by the gov
eminent. Think Of it. whole forests
started by human agencies. While
in Landau we visited the ruins Of
the Trifels and Madenburg.-some-
time ! should like to tell you about
that excursion
On the 26th Of July we came to
Carlsruhe, the Residence-stadt Of
Baden, or in other words the capital
of Baden, and the Residence of the
Grand-duke and his family We
will probably STAY here all winter.
but have not decided definitely vet.
Very Sincerely.
