that the Empress and he would like to
attend the two remaining concerts
Later in the day l met SenOrita Ger
vantes She was an attractive girl OF
about sixteen. with sweet smile and
big eyes full of music. We had a long
talk. in the course of which | learned
what best she liked to play, and IN
accordance with her wishes arranged a
program for her. After leaving her L
hurried to my printer, and gave d1rec-
tons to have inserted in the programs
which were being prepared for the last
concert, on Saturday night, not only
the numbers which my little Spanish
harpist was to render. but also these
words: Third operate Concert, Under
the Imperial Patronage of Dom Pedro,
Emperor of Brazil, in Honor of SenOrlta
CervanteS.
That night, when the orchestra began
THE Star Spangled Banner, the
Emperor, recognizing it at once as
the national air, rose to his feet. He
was followed by the Empress and all the
others of the royal party. In those days
it was not the general custom in this
country to stand when the national air
was played, and for few seconds Prac-
tically no other persons in the house
were on their feet. But suddenly the
significance of the Emperor's act burst
on the audience, and it rose en- masse.
Many sang, and at the end everybody
cheered the Emperor. who stood bowling
and smiling for several minutes. The
concert terminated in a swelling note OF
triumph, which well expressed my own
feelings. My work was done. and had
scored a success far beyond my expecta-
tions, thanks to the Emperor of Brazil.
In the course of their visit to the
United States he and the Empress went
to Cambridge, Massachusetts,, and were
guests for some days of Henry Wadsworth
Longfellow In the modest cottage of
the poet Dom Pedro ceased to be an
Emperor He left the trappings of his
exalted state behind him, and became
the subject of a king of poetry.
His sojourn at the house of LongfellOw
reminds me of an afternoon | myself
spent there. Joseph H. Tooker and l
went to Cambridge to offer the poet a
considerable sum of money for series
of readings from his poems. He was on

AN AMENDED DESCRIPTION
THE Lower Rehoboth neighborhood
has an individuality that IS all its
own No railroad has pierced the hills
that lie around it, and all the world
passes it by, hence ancient customs yet
prevail there and the old traditions are
faithfully preserved. One of the quaint
est of the practices is that of making the
pulpit serve the purposes of news
paper; so from the sacred desk each
Sabbath morning are read notices of
articles lost and found, and detailed
announcements are given of the various
events hOuse-raisings, COrn-Shuck1ngs
and the ike-that have been planned
for the coming week.
Now it happens that in Lower Reho-
both there is certain Uncle Teddy,
righteous man, but deaf, also a school
house is there The inhabitants of the
section are proud of the school, and
recently employed a new teacher for it.
Naturally the opening of the school was
an important announcement to be made.
But it SO happened that on Saturday
preceding that especial "meetin' day
Uncle Teddy's brindle COW CHANGED to
stray, and Uncle Teddy was anxious for
knowledge as to her whereabouts. So,
early Sunday morning the old man HE'D
him to the parson
"Parson," he begged, "parson. tell
'em all in Their meetin' that I've lost my
COw-a brinnle COW, parson, an
mighty good mixer toe"
As in duty bound, the good parson
extended his sympathy and promised
his ready aid, and Uncle Teddy went his
way. The hour for service at hand, the
preacher assembled to his station and
began upon his list
Brethren" he began, 1T is my
pleasure to inform you that Miss Mary

of the school, has arrived and will open

First of the Season.

Last Friday while on his way
home, about two miles from this
city Uncle John Rottenberry, who
furnishes the motive power for
our news press. fell in company
with Charlie Rawson in the woods
in what is known as Joe Ford's
hollow. and sitting down to rest
spied a green snake not far from
them, Charlie at once dispatched
his snake-ship with his axe. and
upon measurement was found TO
be over 36 inches in length, its
body being only as large as lead
pencil and tapering down to the
size of knitting needle. Rotten
berry has not been seen since the
murder of the reptile until this
morning. when he showed up" TO
resume his duties at the press.
