NOISY AFRICAN NATIVES.

Laughter Seldom Heard in the Uproar
Sounds of Tomtoms and Big Shells
Among the African natives there
can be nothing done without noise
according to William B. Clarke OF
Pittsburg, Pa, who has travelled ex'
tensively in Africa.
"It is simply appalling, the rush,
the roar, the chatter and the hustle,
like Bedlam let loose" Mr.. Clark said
"The principal object of conversation
is said to be money, and the hubbubr
bawling and uproar In all sorts OF
tones from shrill and screaming to
gruff and growing. accompanied by
eli sorts o. geStisGiat!oGs With tongue,
head and feet, are beyond description.
'Tt Is rather odd, but laughter is
almost never heard In this uproar;
and, as for whistling, 1t 10 a lost art,
If there are any quarrels they are not
to be heard in public, although when
a company of natives get to carry on
an animated conversation it appears
to the observer as If the next act
would be a melee.
I'm addition to these natural
sounds there are others of an arti-
fetal character that are equally IA
miliar to the traveller. Such Is the
noise of the drums called tomtoms,
which are beaten on every occasion,
and a kind Of pipe about eighteen
inches long. with holes like those of
a flute, and breathed through in a
way that produces a variety of notes
of a wild, d~iscordant character. A
frightful noise Is made by the kaffa
men blowing on a big she'll"

CHURCH IN A WINDMILL.

Cleared Of Rats, II Does Very Well at
a Rent Of rs Cents a Year.
Twelve years ago, when the VII
layers living of the borders of Rel
gate Heath, Surrey, England, had no
place OF worship nearer than the par
fsh church, a service was held in a
school room close by and was SO well
attended that the authorities looked
around for a suitable permanent build
ing.
The erection of a church was out of
the question, but there stood on the
heath the remains of an old mill, a
picturesque feature II q beautiful bit
OF landscape. Inspection showed that
once the rats were got rid of a com
paratively small outlay would furnish
and render the mill fit for public wor-
ship, and soon 1t was opened as the
Chapel OF the Holy Cross.
The interior OF the chapel
interest, says the Wide World Maya
zine. Four buttresses, four feet
thick by six feet in height, serve as
rests for two massive beams which
cross each other in the center and
support an upright shaft cracked with
age and strongly bound with iron
bands. The buttresses make four
natural alcoves. The entrance door
stands In one, and Immediately oppo-
site is the altar; the harmonium is
placed in a third, and the bell ringer
sits close beside it and rings his bell:
the fourth is occupied by the congre-
cation. The rent of this novel church
IL only rs cents q year.

Rough drafts of some uie essays and tales which make up Washington Irvings delightful volume of The Alhambra' were actually made while the author dwelt amid the crumbling spendors of that ancient palace of the Moorish kings Others were subse- quently added founded upon the notes and observations which Irving made there. Of the first edition of "The Al hambra" Irving says: Several of tifs tales were thrown aside as incomplete and others were put together some what hastily and in a rather crude and chaotic form" It was not until 1851
 nearly 20 years after the tales of The Alhambra" were first given to the pub lie, that Irving went over the Work carefully and thoroughly, putting it in the form in which he wished it to en- dure Some of the stories were en- larged and partly rewritten and others were added Among the stories en- larged and rewritten was the Arab bian Astrologer" Unfortunately in many cheap. modern editions of Irving "rhe Astrologer" has been taken from the first crude sketch and not from the en- Iarged and rewritten story. Not to have read "The Alhambra" is to have missed one of the most soothing de lights which the English language af
 lords. All who have not read 1t should read it and all who have should read it again-and read it in the revised yer
 sion in which Irving finally put it forth.
