combining in engaging the services OF

by Glocester and Smithfield, the
scheme going into effect this fall
The idea is not original, as it has
been,used in Massachuse and doubt
less other states. 1t enables the
schools of small towns to enjoy the
services OF trained educator, when
it would be impossible, should they
act independently. This is, we
think tile first time the plan has been
tried in this part OF Rhode Island.

| 6rotesqus Native Fashions on the
West Coast Of Africa.
A somewhat amusing description OF
the arrival Of a ship on the Africaa
coast near Sierra Leone Is given by
Mrs. Horace Tremlett In her book
with the Tin Gods" She says the
ship was met by a multitude Of primi-
tive native canoes manned by naked
savages, but evidences Of civilization
were not lacking In the later arrivals.
They were followed I'm a more lei
surely and .decorous fashion by boats,
also containing colored people, but
clothed and apparently in their right
mind, and these climbed up the CON-
panionway and swarmed I'm dozens all
over the decks and into the saloons,
taking possession Of the ship. No one
appeared to resent their behavior, and
they crowded into the drawing room,
lolling about on the settees and chairs
Some Of them thumped out hymns and
cakewalks with merciless enthusiasm
on the piano, while the others whistled
or sang the tune In various and diver
gent keys. They had evidently come
on board TO enjoy themselves, and ev-
cry black face was decorated with an
expansive and genial grin Of pleasure.
'"The men were dressed In decent
ready made suits Of dark tweed or
cloth and, though adorned with a good
deal Of Jewefry In the way Of watch
chains, pins and rings, were quite pre-
mi "a ntrt FnlI
the most ludicrous caricature Of CIV
uizaton 1t Is possible to imagine.
Many OF them wore silk and satin
dresses, frilled, gathered and draped
about their bulky figures. Red and yel-
low appeared to be the most popular
colors, although purple and green were
q close second, and l remember a very
striking costume Of emerald green vel
vet with bright pink satin facings and
frills Of deep coffee colored lace that
surely must have been the envy Of all
beholders. Huge hats of grotesQue
shapes were perched indifferently ON
their black woolly heads. Magenta
feathers strove with scarlet poppies,
and vivid blue roses wrestled with yel-
low ribbons OH a mauve hat.
Bangles and chains composed Of ev-
erything from cOlored glass to fne
gold jingled and ratified as they moves
about and glistened equally with their
coal black eyes and cleaning white
teeth. They chattered and gibbered
like troop Of monkeys, and pande-
monium reigned on board for several
hours. 1t transpired that they were
the native aristocracy Of Sar' Leone,
merchants and traders with their Ia
dies, who made point of boarding the
mail boat whenever possible, generally
to bid farewell to one Of their number
who is travelling down the coast. They
look upon 1t as legitimate excuse for
Q spree, and as a large proportion Of
the ships cargo depends upon their
good will they are encouraged to make
the most Of the occasion"

Baths In Finland.

One Of the greatest trials visitor In
Finland has to endure is a Finnish
bath The method Of procedure is
unique. Divested Of outer clothing
and attired In light and airy cotton
garment, you are slung In sort OF
hammock composed of cord above q
large receptacle like the boilers In pub
lie laundries. This is almost filed
with cold water, into which at the
right moment Is flung a large redhot
brick or piece Of iron. which, Of course,
causes an overwhelming rush Of steam
to ascend and almost choke you. Then
when that process has gone on suffi-
ciently long you are shaken out of your
hammock, immersed In cold water, and
after very drastic treatment You ~
sumo your fsimsnt sadder and Wiser
than before your novel sxperishcs.

A Curious Funeral Ceremony.

1t Is said that when Alaric, the con
Queror Of Rome, died "a river was
turned aside to make place In It's bed
for his grace. and when he was buried
the water was again let into its former
channel and the prisoners who had
helped to bury him were killed so that
no one might find out where the con
Queror OF Rome was buried" The river
turned was the Busento and the place
near Cosento, Italy.

SOFIA, Bulgaria, July 2s. - An anarchistic plot to assassinate King Ferdinand has been disclosed in the courtmartial trial of seven persons accused of complicity in the bomb out. rage at the Sofia Casino. The ac. cused described themselves Satan. ists,' this being the title of the an. archistic group to which they belong and which, under the leadership of man named Anastasoff, was con. cerned in conspiracy to assassinate the king two years ago.
 The February bomb outrage oc. cured in the midst of an official ball. and resulted in the death of four prominent young people and the in. jury of many others. Those killed in. cluded the son of the minister of war and daughter of former war min. ister.
 What the details were of the plot against the king have not been made public.

 ] J l N ]

ROME, July 2S.-The castle of Duino, set on fire during the bomb bard ment of Monfalcone, near Triest. by the Italians, was a most interesting survival of mediaeval times. Situated on cliff rising sheer from the sea. it was constructed in the Fifteenth cen. tury.
 Italians have sentimental interest in the fortress as Dante was guest after his exile from Florence, tradi. ton showing, even at the present day a Seat of Dante" where he used to sit for hours contemplating the Divine Smile of the Adria" It now belongs to the Princes of Hohenlohe, of the Duino branch, and was some years ago sumptuously furnished and contained several works of art of great value. Victor Hugo in his "Toilers of the Sea" pictures Franklin as studying the phenomenal of the electric spark at Duino.
 Although set on fire through the fortunes of war 1t Is hoped that the castle Is really not much damaged.

AERIAL DETAILS NUT HERALDED

LONDON. July 2S.-Since the cen. sorship has shut down on the publi- cation of the details of the visits of German aircraft London Is full of daily rumors that spread all over town. There has been no general criticism of withholding the locality of the raids as it may be helpful to the Germans to hear where their bombs dropped. But suppression of details has had its customary effect and every day there are stories of raids that never hap pened and of destruction that never took place. In fairness to the censors 1t should be admitted that while their facts when published are meagre they are regarded as true though the delay in issuing them is hopelessly need. less from a newspaper point of view. In the case of the worst raid, happen. ing around midnight, as usual, the facts were not published in time for the regular issues of the afternoon papers of the following day. Mean
 while rumors had piled on rumors and the man in the street was prepared to hear that hundreds had been killed.
