custom among the Hebrews of Tunis.
The men think woman beautiful ac-
cording to her much flesh, and a likely
Jew girl OF 400 pounds or so has no
trouble In getting husband. AS a
maiden approaches the marriaSeabss
age she is stuffed, much after the man
ner of Strasburg pate-de-foie-gras
goose. These Jewesses have their own
way Of eating to increase theic fat.
and their own foods for putting on
flesh. One of our Agricultural Depart
mcnt explorers tells me that they use a
certain grain which surpasses any
that we have in its fattening qualities,
and also that Secretary Wilson eX-
United States. II SO, 1t will indeed be
a boon to our thin. scrawny girls, who
worry because they cannot rise In
evoirdupois. I have before me a photo
graph OF the two biggest Jewesses OF
Tunis. They are mountains of flesh.
and one Of them weighs over 400
pounds.
These Jewesses have tho homeliest
costumes I have ever seen upon wo-
men. They wear breeches. both on the
street and at home, and over them
| short, loose sacques which fall to the
waist. Some of them have their trous-
ers loose about the hips and tight at
the calves and others wear them about
even all the way down. loading them
with embroidery of silver and gold
Some pairs of breeches are made on
tirely Of gold thread. and I hear OF
money lenders daughters who have
panties which cost $500 a pair. Such
| garments are reserved for home use
and they are not to be seen on the
streets. other girls have pantaloons OF
velvet. loaded with bands of gold and
silver. q girl thus carrying whole

jewelry, and on public occasions they
come out In pearls and diamonds anG

Embarrassed SO that the men take them
away before the ladies step out.
Every fine ;doham,nedan house has
its xomen's apartments. The rooms
arc built around courts and there is
usually one court for the men and
another for the women. In the latter
only the master OF the house Is per-
United to enter. and in less pretenti-
Gus homes a male visitor will always
make himself heard before he comes
in. in order that the woman may flee.
The women have their own private
staircases to the roof, and the roofs are
their special quarters. They are usual
" flat and form the loafing and gos-
siping places for the females of the
household. They are surrounded by
walls, and one cannot see. the girls at

Millions of Yelled Women.
Here in Tunis the women of the mid
Gle classes go out SO wrapped up in
wells that not bit OF their faces is to
be seen. Over their heads they have
long scarfs which fall to their knees.
These scarfs are black. embroidered
| with red and white stripes. and SO
| thick that it is Impossible to see
| through them The women hold them
up with their hands as they walk, loo k
ing out for a step at time. They
sometimes wear shawls over the wells.
Such women seldom visit the stores,
and. II on the street. they are prob
ably on their way to the mosque or
to the cemeteries or to visit their

The women OF the common classes
look stranger still They dress in white
garments OF cotton or wool, which
cover the whole OF their persons, ex-
| cepting their faces. The latter are
wrapped around with thick black

of the Kabyle women when made my
journey through their country IN the
Atlas Mountains of Eastern Algeria.
They are much fairer than either the
Moors or the Bedouins. They belong to
the same race as we do, and have blue
eyes, rosy checks and red hair. They
are Mohammedans. but they do not veil
their faces, and as a rule the Kabyle
husband has blu. one wife. The women
are allowed to go about as they please
They sometimes work In the fields, and
saw many OF them walking along the
roads with their children, and some-
times carrying water from the wells
clad very plainly, with the exception
of the jewelry with which they are
loaded. The ordinary. dress is a gewr
which reaches from the neck to the
feet, and is fastened at the shoulder
with great pin OF silver or white

wear gowns of red and yellow stripes
strapped in at tho loins with a belt Of

Baltimore. Nd. June 1.-The relative
advantages of the United States colony
at Panama as 4 business proposition or
health resort. compared with every other
city of this country, were called into
question this morning hy the bringing TO
light Of q tender romance I'm which a
Baltimore girl. a United States govern
ment employe at Panama, and an irate
father are involved.
As a elimination % the romance which
brings up this comparison of cities there
viii be a marriage ceremony performed
Tomorrow afternoon. when Miss Sophie
a. Wagner. seventeen years old, daush-
ter Of Henry Wagner. of 51i South Pulaski
street, viii become the wife OF Robert T..
Wilson. twenty-six years old. son Of Mr.
and Mrs. F. A. Wilson, Of 1oot North Ar
Iingtou avenue.
Applies to Police.
Mr.. Wagner entered the Southwestern
Police Station this morning and told
Magistrate Stanley that he was desirous
Of preventing the marriage of his daugh-
ter 10 Mr.. Wilson. because the young
woman IS not physically strong enough
to stand the living conditions at Panama,
where Mr. Wilson. the prospective hus-
band. proposes TO take her.
Mr.. Wagner said he would not oppose
the marriage if the couple would remain
here. and that he would obtain position
i'm the city for young Wilson, but that
the latter would not think of exchanging
a position at SlLj a month i'm Panama for
anything that Baltimore could offer him.
Magistrate Stanley told the father that
there was nothing d. could do for him.
Marriage License Issued.
Inquiry developed the fact that a mar
riase license had been issued yesterday
for The marriage Of 1Ir. Wilson and Miss
Wagner
Mr.. Wilson to-day said that the question
Of his taking his wife To- Panama had
nothing 20 do with the case. and that If
it had he would not sacrifice the excel
lent opportunities at Panama, with its
salubrious climate. excellent sanitary con
diti0ns and absence Of disease. or the kind
treatment which Uncle sam accords his
employees. for anything in Baltimore.
Mr.. Wilson says that any man who
serves the government faithfully for ten
years viii be drawing anywhere from
$1,000 90 $1,000 az the end Of that time.
Mr.. Wilson further Indignantly asserted
that Mr. Wagers treatment of both
himself and his daughter had been un-
reasonable. and that several days ago Mr..
Wagner expelled his daughter from the
house. Since that time she has been
living with her aunt. at 2SB North Fulton
avenue, where the marriage will take
place
he said he had been courting Miss
Wagner for the last eight months.
