remain in the city through the winter season.
They have therefore fixed up the camp as some
sort of dwelling place, although could hardly
characterize the shanties and the boX-car and the
tent dwellings as homes.
On these rainy days finds it best to take
a boat to get from the shore line of the side
walk to the camp ITSELF set in the middle of the
prairie The gypsy children have solved the
Venetian transportation problem with RATS, that
they deXterously ply through the flooded prairie
in an enjoyment that is delightful to behold, but
less delightful to emulate.
The habitatons where the gypses dwell are
as queer in general construction as they in
color scheme One of the houses if by courtesy
the old boX-car may be called house, is painted
a bright yellow in sections only. The rest has
a faint tinge of the original red that marked it
when it went over the tracks of the Oregon
Short Line. How it came to it's present
destination is impossible to discover from the
gypsy who owns it, One of the other houses of
similar character is painted vivid green, that
gives the observer the impression of long sea
voyages so sickening is the tone that the amateur
painter has conferred his domicile.

GYPSIES A LEISURELY LOT.

The general atmosphere of the gypsy camp is
of extreme leisureness. No one is in hurry
whats the use of hurrying?" seems to be the
general MOTTO if they have even taken the trouble
to construct motto for themselves. Neither do
they worry any more than they hurry. They sit
around in placid content, blithey Indifferent to
any fate that may come upon them. They would
rather have sunshine, but they do not grumbe
about the rain half as much as do some people who
are less vsibly affected by it than are these
nomads whose homes have almost been swept
away by the recent downpours
If the day shows any signs of sunshine at all
the camp is out in full force the prairie,
1t is a sort of community affair. There

QUEEN OF THE CAMP.

The camp is fairly well organized. Like all
gypsy camps, it is ruled by queen. This one is
Mary Etter Hall, aged sixty, who has been twenty
four years in this country. She is real English
gypsy, having been born in Hertfordshire. Her
family were all of the Romany Rye. Her father
and mother nomads. The latter died in
England many years ago. but the former lived to
be one hundred and eight years of age. He died
in Pittsburg few years ago.
Queen Mary Etter is a wrinkled old gypsy
dirty and unkempt. She traps herself out with
the usual gypsy gauds. On top of the gay, but
not very clean, gown, however, she wore a spot
less white apron that certainly gave her distinct
i've appearance. She smokes all the time. To her
visitors she excused herself, stating that she
wanted to "get Whit of the good old weed"
1t is not cigarette that the queen smokes.
She has not acquired the habits of fashion. 1t
is pipe, good, old-fashioned, excessively strong
pipe, that she smokes when she wants her Whit.
who has just adopted fad. She goes about the
practice scientifically and systematically, with the
air of veteran who knows the full value of pipe.
the camp, her subjects, is a toerantly friendly
one. She herself has an air of reserve rather
than of graciousness. In fact, the gypsies are
a strikingly uncommunicative lot. They act as
if they feared that anyone who tried to talk to
them had some hidden designs that threatened
their life and liberty. They shrink away from
questioning with the retcence of a trained wit
ness. They get away from the questioner as
quickly as possible There is something furtive
in the way that they watch the visitor to the
camp After time it is the visitor who becomes
uneasy under the side glances and the yelled
scrutiny.

HE TAKES LIFE EASY.

Not only does he believe in the divine ability
to look after the affairs of the world in general
without any individual aid on his part but he
believes in the divine providence's special con
sideration for himself Once in while he aids
providence by the theft of his neighbours chickens
or his neighbours other portable and available
goods. But for the most part he trusts implicitly
to the special manifestation of providence-his
own women folks who look out that his wants are
satisfied
If women consider that the right to work indie
pendently be a privilege granted to them by
higher civilization they have but to go to the
gypsy camp to realize that it is a privilege that
a man will grant to woman every time that he
finds her willing to take it at ALL Gypsy civiliza
ton is certainly not of high order, but the gypsy
finds that she has the privilege of working
just as hard and as long as she wants. OF course,
she wants to work neither hard nor long; but some
one in the family has to work and the gypsy men
have decided, like the Indians, that mere mental
work is beneath their dignity and it devolves
the to hustle the grub" as it is phrased
in the vernacular She does not do it in the
way that the women of more complex social sys-
TENS do. Her one way of working is by fortune

seven families in the camp, all united by
neighborliness of feeling and apparent good will
toward each other There even seems to be
community blue glass pitcher that makes its way
in the hand of some gypsy carrier to the nearby
corner saloon. The gypsies appear to find con-
siderable consolation for any possible worries
that they don't have in the encouragement derived
from these trips.
The wagons and cars of vivid hues that char
acterize the gypsy settlement set around in
a semi-circle the prairie. From one wagon to
another hung a line than contained articles OF
raiment of brilliant coloring that had just come
from the community washtub. The children
were playing on the RATS a little distance from
the encampment The men of the camp, rough
looking lot pitching pennies They have
made loafing fine art. They kill time with
an ease that would make any professional muir
derer of the article most people find so difficult
to acquire leisure time green with envy. The
gypsy is shiftless and worthless. There is no
doubt but that he is a burden to society But
he is gifted with a consider the lilies of the
field" attitude that reveals touching confidence
in kind providence. No one believes more
fervently than does the gypsy that God made
the world and He can take care of it."

UT ON THE PRAIRIES to the
southwest of the city is the
camp of the gypsies. A little
colony of nomads who have
taken up a habitation for a brief
period constitute a camp that has
no equal in city life. The gyp-
sizes have been there on the
flooded prairies all winter.

M Well, up until England began to
go wild over 1t, pageant was pretty
nearly anything in the way of an out
door procession that made some pretense to pic
turesqueness in display. A Canstatter Voksfest
was good a pageant any one could dig up,
IN these modern, prosaic times-and often a
good deal better.
But IN the new dispensation of pageantry il
has suddenly evolved itself into reproduction,
IN minute details of costumes and even of archi-
lecture, of major scenes, events and incidents of
the local history attached to the place where the
pageant Is performed.

clans. He declares that the United States offers
opportunities for pageants unsurpassed by Eu-
rope.
"Take Boston OF Plymouth--to mention
only couple of places" he observed. Either
could have, so far as site and history go,
pageants as stately and as interesting as those
Of any English town.
"a Boston pageant might open with the
English historical events that would show at
work the forces which, gradually cccumulating,
drove the English Bostonians to their tragic
pilgrimage across the waters.

WOMEN AT THE DANBURY FAIR.

With the great Danbury fair overflow
 ing with features for them, the women,
 who by thousands see:the fair every
 year, will find the coming exposition
 October 5-1O) of uncommon sinterest,
 and they will also find in it rich
 source of information. The races, the
 horse and cattle shows, the band con- certs, the live stock buildings, the poul. try, dog, cat and flower shows, all of these are of as much interest to the women as to the men. But in some!of the buildings there are exhibits which appeal especially to women. The show of fruits, plants. bees, honey and table luxmies, for instance. And hundreds of women will compete for prizes with displays of bread, cake, jellies and jams. The art department will, as 1t does every year, overflow with displays of knitted and crochet work, lace and embroidery, sewing, fancy work, deco rative art work and decorated china. The fair is held the week of October 5-10, and excursions will be run to the Danbury Fair grounds on all railroads from the Connecticut river on the east to the Hudson river on the west, from New York City on the south to Pitts field, Mass, on the north.

FILIPINOS AT DANBURY FAIR

Captain John R. McRae and his band of 25 Igorotes from the Phillipine Islands, will be an attraction at the Danbury fair. The village will be one of the most instructive places on the grounds and the show is said to be far above the average. The Igorotes have been in England up to recent date, when they were brought to this country. The village will be an excel lent imitation of their homes in the mountains of interior Luzon. While not on exhibition the women spend most of the time weaving articles of clothing. The native Filipinos have picked up little English since they were taken in charge last February by Captain McRae. Their language is spoken by only four white men in the world, of whom Captain McRae is one.
