Belgium Gets First
Cotton from Congo

ANTWERP, May 16.-The first ship
ment of cotton from the Belgian Con-
go has arrived in Antwerp. 1t amount
ed to about eight tons, but it will
shortly be followed by larger quaint
ties.
Heretofore Belgin industry has
been relying exclusively on imports
from America. The first attempts at
cotton growing in the Belgian Congo
were made during the war in 1915. To-
day there are already several cotton
plantations in operation in the Mamie
ma and Sankaru districts. The 1918
crop yielded about $50 tons.

would not walk from the kitchen to

You could not even suggest to her
that she had such things as bare feet.
The Rambler used to go fishing with
her freckle faced and snub- nosed
brother whose legal name was Ig-
natius Loyola, but who in spite Of this
was one Of the worst boys so far as
lighting and robbing orchards and

Aunt Aggie did not look one bit
like the lady in the portrait In velvet
brocade.
Yet she was as fine a woman as ever
wore hoops and hoopskirts and a bus
tie. So far as the Rambler can re-
member she never owned a velvet bro
cade dress in her life. She did have ,
black silk dress which she wore to
church or funerals, to weddings and to
christenings She wore it to tourna-
ments in summer and church oyster
socials in winter. She put u on when
particular company was expected. She
was very proud Of it. Toward the
later years of her life 1t became q lit.
tie frayed and rusty. but 1t probably
wore as long as brocaded velvet would
have lasted. The Rambler thinks she
bought the silk from Darius Clagett's
dry goods store at 9th and the Avenue,
from l.. r. Perry & Co.. from William
Shuster and w. H. C1agett, on Market
space, or from Pairos dry goods store,
which used to be on f street near
10Th about 1920, and was later moved
down to the Avenue.

much like the voice of fake farmer
at the front door selling cold-storage
eggs as his own product-so let us
call her mistress of the mansion"
or Madame X. Well, Madame X stood
before particular portrait as though
1t were family shrine.
In low and sentimental tones, as
though suffering severely from tense
mot dense) emotion, she said:
That is the portrait Of my maternal
great t-great-grandmother daughter Of
Gen. Hump Backus. the distinguished
son of Sir Crook Grafton-Swindel and
his wife. Mercy Onus. Gen. Hump
was such a warm personal friend OF
George Washington that they used
to drink tea out of the same saucer.
During the American revolution my
4
times sat on the lap of Gen. La
fayette-she was a very little girl
then. you know. The portrait was
painted by Sir Joshua Reynolds while
he was a visitor at her estate, Holly
Thicket, which was carved out of
her mothers estate of Sassa afras
Grove. which was carved out of her
fathers royal grant from Charles II.
England's pious monarch. called Mil
dew Manor, the brick for which were
brought from England in ballast. The
dress she wears in the portrait was
the one she wore on the occasion of
her presentation at the court of st.
James, OF st. George, or St. Patrick
I forget which-but anyhow she was
taken to court. The dress was made
out Of a bolt Of velvet brocade worn
by Marie 'Antoinette at her execution.
and the passamenterie panel on the
side was part Of the last dress worn
by Mary. Queen of Scots"
1t was the beautiful old. portrait Of
a benign faced, gentle-eyed. but with
all somewhat naughty woman to
whom the Rambler or any Of his man
readers would gladly pay homage
or give up his seat in a street car.
But the Rambler cannot vouch for the
accuracy Of all the statements made
concerning the portrait, its lovely
subject, her ancestry and her brocad-
ed velvet dress. He hopes they are
true, but he feels that among so many
statements few may be exaggera-
tions. He was well acquainted with
the good family that lived at Holly
Thicket, between Piscataway and
Mattawoman creeks. or was 1t be-
tween Chickamuxen and Nanjemoy
creeks? He has a lively recollection
Of the good woman whose portrait Sir
Joshua Reynolds painted. He cannot
recall when 1t was that the great ar
tist visited Holly Thicket. The neigh
bors never heard of it, SO he must
have come incognito on secret mis-
sion on a dark and stormy night. Sir

bly, out of practice or was working in
the dark with his left hand. 1t is by
no meax of lifelike resemblance of
the good woman the Rambler knew
hundred years ago at Holly Thicket
But. of course, portraits seldom are.
Portrait artists are often fatterers
inH'esd of painters.
The subject of that portrait was
Agathy Sempronia Charity Jones. The
Rambler knew her we'll and esteemed
her highly. He has often sauntered
over to the plain. simple, friendly lit
tie frame house of Holly Thicket. He
remembers that over the porch-it
was then called piazza-which ex-
tended across the front Of the house
from the hall door to the parlor WIN
dow grew rose vine. The foliage
creamy. waxy white. 1t was called
the old English rose. One sees this
flower as seldom in up-to-date gar
dens as he does the pink and fra
grant hundred-leaf crinkled rose or
the beautiful old fashioned moss rose
pavement of old brick, and from that
door there extended grape arbor
down into the garden. 1t was like
hundreds Of other dear old homes
sweet old homes, in southern Mary
land and Virginia which many proud
or prosperous descendants have made
over in their minds or fashioned in
their fancy into manors, mansions
castles and the like.
Often has the Rambler walked over
there to supper and eaten hot beaten
biscuits which the grand lady in the
portrait, Agathy Sempronia Charity
Jones. made with her own hands. All
the children called her Aunt Aggie.
She was. of course. not a blood aunt
to all the children. but that was a
custom of the country. The Rambler
knew all the folks over there very
well. indeed. He was madly In love
with Aunt Aggie's youngest daugh-
ter, Mary Catherine Priscilla. This
sO~"5 i"Ny uP " duOuI t1c age OF
ten or eleven years would never wear
shoes or stockings, except when she
went to school or to church. She
cared nothing about getting her face
and hands sunburned She could ride
horse as recklessly, climb a tree
as nimbly, run as fast and throw
stones as far and as straight as a
boy. and In any quarrel that arose she
was just as strong and dangerous.
She was then called Katie. A little
later along In her life she was called
Catherine, and a very little farther
along in years she became Miss Mary
Catherine.
Finally she was sent away to school.
The Rambler forgets whether it was
Mount De Sales. near Baltimore, or
the convent at Frederick or the
Academy Of the Visitation at George
town, but it was one OF those big
schools. When she came home in the
time OF flowers, tasseling corn and
pink blooming tobacco she wore a
gold medal for department., could
paint pictures Of apple and dogw ood
blossoms, pansies and red roses. and
among the pieces she could play on

Patrolman Gallivan, who is in charge
of the sales at Erasmus Hall. said that
the young Teller seemed 20 be wishin'
he was back in the muddy trenches.
This wish was inspired most likely BY
the assortment OF Brooklyn citizens
which was strung out behind him. and
which was augmented shortly after the
squeaing halt Of each trolley car OF
the more polished pause Of an automo-
bile. Directly behind him was young
lady who might have been stenos-
rapher on her vacation, or even q
stenographer taking day of.
The young man carried soap box,
while the young lady carried an old
fashioned shopping bag. The ill-at-
ease youth graciously proffered his CO.
waiter the soap box and she sat grace
fully upon it. She thanked him. He
told her not to mention it, but she said
