Legend of the Lotus.

The lotus is closely identified with
the ancient Egyptian religion, and WAS
dedicated to Osiris, no Egyptian think
ing of approaching a temple without
three of the blossoms in his hand. The
name was given it, according to
mythology, when a beautiful nymph OF
the same name, heartbroken over the
GOODNESS of Hercules, went to Hebe
for sympathy, and by her was trans
formed into q flower. The Greek
hero taking ship shortly afterward
with Hyfas, youth he loved as his
own son. came to island where the
latter landed, and searched for
spring. He found one in the center
of a pool, the pool being covered with
beautiful blossoms. AS Hy1as stared
at them, Lotus in her nymph form,
emerged from the blossom and drew
him to her arms, and then to the
depths of the pool, where he drowned.

Of families live under one roof. On
an average there are 40, but Instances
have been known in which as many as
400 persons were living together in
single community house. The houses
are constructed on piles. with ladders
leading to the outer uncovered We
randa, which runs the entire length of
the house. The veranda is used more
or less as public highway. Anyone
passing through the village may climb
up the ladder at one end, walk along
it and climb down the other end in
the most casual manner. just back
of it lies covered portion Of the
house, and here most of the work is
carried on. Opening from the
veranda is series of doors leading
into separate rooms. one belonging to
each family. Here the Isyaks do their
cooking, eating and sleeping, except
that unmarried girls usually sleep in
loft reached from the rooms, while
the boys occupy the inner veranda.

HELD FOR TRIAL FOR
ATTEMPTED MURDER

John Somody, arrested on Monday
of last week after two Intellectual at
tempts upon the life of his father-in-
law, Andrew Buck, at the latter's
home in Sharon township, was arraign
ed before Justice of Peace w. P. Aims
worth last Saturday morning, who
bound him over to common pleas
court under a bond of $1,000.
Somody and Buck owned the farm
jointly until short time ago, when
Somody, in need of money, sold his
share in the property to his father-in-
law for 81 900. Later he became con.
vinced that Buck had by too far the
better end of the bargain, and made
demand at different times upon the
latter for further settlement. Accord
ing to Buck, Somody renewed his de-
mands on the morning of the shooting
and while enraged grabbed a double
barrel shotgun, and blazed away at
|rBuzek, neither of which shots took
effect. Somody was overtaken by
Sheriff Bigelow and Deputy Hange
near Akron, while on his way to sur
render to the Akron authorities.

HEAR NOTED ,GANIST

The recital by Albert Riemen-
schneider last Friday evening at the
Methodist church dedicatory Of the
new pipe organ recently installed in
that edifice was one of the richest
musical feasts given in the village in
a long time. The intelligence and
refinement Of his playing is no less
remarkable than his technique, both
of which was but little short Of a
revelation to the great number of
local muscle lovers who attended the
concert.
Mr.. Riemenschneider expressed
himself as well pleased with the new
organ and the exquisite tonal effects
brought forth by his mastery touch
Of the keys and deft manipulation of
the stops, indicated the correctness Of
his judgment as to the superiority Of
the instrument.
The following numbers, many. of
which were unfamiliar to most of the
audience, constituted Mr.. Riemen-
schneider's program:
Allegro Maestoso (third sonata)
Guilmant; Pastorale (first sonata)
Guilmant; Gavotte, Martini; Ber-
ceuse (Jocelyn) GODDARD; Will-o'-the-
Wisp, G. B. Neyin; March Funebre
ct Chant Seraphique, Guilmant; /;
Toccata, Halsey Song to the Evening
Star (Tannhauser) Wagner; The
Chase, Fumagalli; Chanson du Soir,
Becker; Sous le Bois (In the Forest)
Durand- Guilmant; March Nuptiale,
Faulkes.
Mr.. Riemenschneider was assisted
by Mrs. P. G. Bigelow, soprano, who
sang "Great is the Holy One Of
Israel" by Case, accompanied by Mr..
Riepenschneider. Mrs. Bigelow was
in excellent voice and delivered this
very difficult and beautiful number
with remarkable vigor and intelli-
gence.
The big audience attested their
satisfaction and pleasure with the
concert BY unstinted applause Of every
number.
