THE HOUSE OF BACCHUs.
Discovery Of Room Used in limitations
IN the Forum.

Rome, February 20. = Professor
Boni today disclosed to limited num-
ber Of Anglo-American friends the re-
suit OF his latest excavations in the
forum. Professor Boni explored the
upper Sacred way and identified as a
Byzantin-Gothic fortifcation what un-
I'll now had been supposed to be the
remains OF the Porticus Margaritaria
He discovered underneath a large
house of the republican period which
furnishes most important evidence of
the Bacchic rites
The house consists of several rooms
and baths used In the initiation Of
worshippers OF Bacehus
One has seven different coatings of
whitewash, with traces OF frescoes and
mysterious inscriptions and symbols.
This room contained 80 sacred earth
enware lamps. Numerous other lamps
and pottery we're discovered. Consid-
cradle importance is attached 70 the
discovery as II proves thct the myster-
iUus Bacchic rites continued in Rome
after the celebrated persecution by the
senate in 1856 B. c.. when, under the
consulate OF Postumus. the Bacchana-
Hans were abolished and 1000 follow

Can't say that was looking for hat,
but in searching out subjects for re-
form you have to drop into various
places. Milliner nice little widow.
All her capital in the business Just
received a letter from a wholesale
house threatening suit on bills over
due. Her customers all rich, but they
didn't pay cash down. Don't pay in
three or six months. In fact they
didn't pay for year or 80 and only
when forced to. / have seen many Of
the hats that were bought there that
way. Relieved the distress and passed
on
Every lady in the room except the
Hon. Mrs. Spofferd had on an expen-
sive hat. Each lady started to look at
the other, but gave 1t up and cast
down her eyes with proper modesty.
They might not all have known the
milliner referred to, but they had
thoughts. After a painful silence Mr..
Gerald continued:
Happened to meet the butler OF a
house where l frequently call. Just
happened, you know. Down In the
mouth; looked bilious. As a would
be reformer spoke to him and got his
story. Lady Of the mansion hadn't
paid his wages for Ave months and
had borrowed his savings besides. He
dared to speak to her about It, and she
had sent him packing. Saw the same
lady buying a 5000 ruby ring the other
day"
Every lady In the room helplessiy
glanced at the hands Of every other
lady. A poodle dog belonging to one
Of them seemed to be the only thing in
the room at ease.
Happened to call on q florist" said
the obliging reformer when the silence
had endured to the painful point; '.just
happened 30. One OF his statements of
accounts sent out to a lady had been
returned with a very sharp note. The
account was two years old, and be-
cause he sought TO collect 1t the debtor
Informed him that she should take her
patronage elsewhere. II was only one
case out Of n score. Sympathlzed with
the florist and passed on. Happened
across a discharged coachman, dis
charged for limiting that he wanted his
wages. Helped him out with a Eve
dollar bill. Happened to run across a
governess in the same flx. That's all.
Good evening, ladies'"
For two minutes after the reformer
disappeared no one spoke. Then one
lady after another rose up to 10 and,
turning to the honorable widow. work
ed up a smile and said:

Politicians in the heat of party
strife not infrequently say bitter and
unjust things for which, when the pas
sion born OF conflict is over, they are
sorry. But however genuine the re-
gret 1t cannot undo the harm which
such ungenerous and unjust cpeech
may have done. All this might be
avoided if politicians would but pray
the prayer of the late Governor John
son Of Minnesota, Spare me from the
bitterness and the sharp passions of
moments"

The Palatlza Times-Herald says
Hon. w. A. Blount, candidate for
United States Senator, belongs to the
optimistic class, Certainly. II he
had been pesslmist he would at pres
ent be practicing law before some
country justice of the peace, instead
of enjoying the largest law practice
in the State Of Florida. optimists
are builders; pessimists destroyers.
Willie Blount could not be anything
but an optimist. He is a big man.
Pessimists are little men, and there
is no place for them in such pro-
gressiye State as ours.
