Severe Penalty for immortality.

The bishops were very severe in their
punishment of immortality, drunkenness
and other offenses. You can see on the
quaint old platz before the town hall.
and it is one Of the most picturesque pub
lie squares In all the world, where scold-
ing women and scandal mongers were ex-
hibited for public riGicule in cage, or
in stocks upon which snarlng cats were
painted. The post still stands in front of
the house Of the bakers guild, where men
were fogged, and to which their eyes
were nailed. when they had done serious
evil. There is a horse block in the platz
upon which men sentenced to death were
placed on their way to the gallows. for
the public to gaze at, and IL any respecta-
BILE woman would agree TO marry the con-
Gemned man he was pardoned.
In this square passion plays like that at
Oberammergau were performed on Good
Friday by amateurs. with monks as stage
managers. eight and ne hundred years
ago.
When the bell in the cathedral tower
rang an alarm all able-bodied burghers
were expected to gather in the square. be
1t day or night. and receive their instruc-
tons from the bishop or from one of the
canOns who represented him. This was
the rendezvous when they were called out
for war. When the prince bishop had

was relieved from ecclesiastical govern
ment and made a part of the duchy of
Hanover. that the citizens heard what
had happened to them. and there again.
In 1896. they refused to take the oath of
allegiance to King Wilhelm of Prussia
unit a term of Imprisonment brought
them to their senses.

Another Miracle Disclosed.
According to another legend. Louis the
Pious in the year SIS. was hunting In the
forest that covered this part of Germany
and, according to his habit had his chap
lain with him. On Sunday mass was said
under a tree. and the trunk was used for
an altar. The next morning camp was
broken and the party moved on. A day
or two later. to the CONSERVATION of the
king and the entire party. several sacred
relics which the good man was in the
habit of carrying with him as tal:smans
on all his journeys and campaigns were
not to he found. and everybody started
back along the trail to search for them.
They were finally discovered hanging In
the tree where mass had been celebrated
the Sunday before.
Because the chaplain insisted that he
had taken them down and carried them
away in the brass bound oaken chest that
held his vestmcnts and the sacred vessels
used at mass, it was decided that mir
acle had been performed and that the
Holy Virgin. by that sign, had indicated
her desire to have chapel erected in
her honor at that place. The chapel was
built. and Louis the Pious founded
monastery beside it, which grew in d.
mansions and in influence as the g,nera-
tons succeeded each other, until finally

Complete When Snow Melts.

The miracle was completed. when the
snow melted away. by the. appearance Of
the Blessed Virgin in person, who COM
manded him to build shrine in her
honor upon that mound. The shrine was
built, the pagan goddess in some way or
another accepted Christianity and was
afterward canonized.
In building the chapel the rose bush was
carefully preserved and was trained up
the outside wall of the apse. A monas-
terry was built by the Bene dictines on the
other side of the chapel, and before the
end of the century was very much en-
larged TO accommodate the monks who
came there for worship and contempla-
ton. Finally a cathedral was erected by
Bishop Prince Hello in ST.. which still
stands. II has been extended from time
to time until its cloisters entirely sur
round the original chapel and the miracu-
lOus rose bush. which is as vigorous as
it ever was. and is covered with blossoms
every summer.

Preservation Of Relics.

Preservation Of Relics.
In the treasury Of the cathedral are
still preserved the very relics of the
Blessed Virgin which Louis the Pious
worshiped on that day, with many other
precious things. such. as the knife and
fork of Charlemagne, a piece of the true
cross. the head Of Oswald, King of North
umbria and father OF the English Saint
Hilda. who died in the year 6l2. There
is a very ancient manuscript treatise on
geometry. from which Saint Bernward.
the most illustrious of the prince bishops
of Hildesheim. taught Emperor Otto Ill
OF Germany. There are other interesting
ing beautiful little altar, which is said
to have been made by Ira Angelica, the
famous artist monk Of Florence.
On the top Of the ancient rauthaus is q
wooden efngy called the Maid of Hide
sheim. 1t represents Saint Hilda. and it
is said that during the early history of
the town. when il was attacked by the
barbarians which plundered that part of
ramparts of the city wall and used to
catch in its apron the cannon balls of fire
with which the enemy hoped to burn out
the town.
AS YOU will observe. there is a good
deal OF confusion in these legends. They
don't seem to gibe. But you are not re-
quired to accept them all, and there are
advantages in having u choice even OF
good things. No expenditure of time and
patience that l could afford has been suf-
ficient to clear up the relationship be-
tween the Saint Hilda Of England. whose
fathers head reposes in the reliQuary of
the cathedral-the Saxon Saint Hi'da, who
lived here and was worshiped by the ma
tives $50 years later-and that enterpris-
ing young woman who served as a cannon
ball catcher during the sieges that the
town endured.

AN unusually large movement O

1.-THE December clean movement was

been reasonably steady in clean, and

at time when the market is generally

of rough were made above the asSocia-

ans. In the country, as high as $500
was paid for milling grades, while in
New Orleans, as high as 1886 was
paid for milling rice.

January 4th, has consistently sold OF

clare that the association is success
and that contracts for next year, al

half the crop, and Secretary Wilkins
authorizes the statement that the asso-

Crowley, La, Jan. 2S.-Recently
a dispatch was printed in most of the
newspapers of the south aud in many
northern newspapers, in which it was
stated that the rice holding movement
had been broken and that in conse.
quence, rough rice is selling freely in
Louisiana and Texas. The wording
or the dispatch left the impression that

citation had failed. Secretary wilkins
OF the Southern Rice Growers AS
ISOLATION, today issued the following
statement, with the request that it be
given the same publicity given the
news dispatch above mentioned.
'"'The Southern Rice Growers Asso-
citation has not failed. 1t is in better
condition than at any other time since
its organization. 1t has more con-
tracts for sale OF rice than ever before.
1t is not holding organization but o
selling company. 1t does not sell be-
low its quotations and has not had to
sell below them. Ninety per cent of the
rice sold since the association started
business, has been sold by the associ-
alton or above its quotations, which
advanced the market. The association
now has in its possession, contracts
authorizing it to act as agent for the
sale of ee-fourths OF the coming
crop. 1t is owned and controlled by
farmers of the rice belt, who are urged
by it to sell their rice as fast as
the market demands it, but not below
association prices.'
