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 in a beautiful bit
OF landscape. Inspection showed that
once the rats were got rid of a com.
paratively small outlay would furnish

Chapel Of the Holy Cross.
The interior Of the chapel arouses
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;

NOISY AFRICAN NATIVES.
Laughter Seldom Heard in the Uproar
sounds of Tomtoms and Big Shells.

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.
1T 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 hubbub,
bawling and uproar in all sorts OF
tones from shrill and screaming TO
gruff and growing, accompanied by
all sorts of ge~sticulations with tongue,
head and feet, are beyond description.
1T is rather odd, but laughter is
almost never heard IN this uprOar;
and, as for whistling, it is 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.
In addition to these natural
sounds there are others of an arti-
fetal character that are equally IA
miliar t o 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, discordant character. A
frightful noise Is made by the kaffa
men blowing on a big she'll"
