Sea Trip Rough
From Trebizond we sailed to Ba-
tum; but just before we came there
mighty blizzard was let loose and
fer forty-eight hours we had to stand
out to sea. How she rolled, and
pitched, and how seasick certain
people were is not recorded in his
tory. One of the passengers was
thrown clear across the ward room
and he still has marks to show for
| it. After time we landed, ready to
take the tain tor Tiflis, Georgia,
bul on making inquiries we were
told that Yesterdays train had not
arrived today and therefore we could
rot go before tomorrow. The Near
Last Relief took us in for the night
but before we retired we did" the

Though it is two or three thou
sand years old, Batum (and so

looks like an abandoned western

cost me 5000 rubles. 1 might as
well confess here that during my
stay in Georgia my expenses ran up
into six figures, yes, almost seven.

About 1900 o,clocl, the foI1owino
cold morning I was awakened and
told that the train Of day before had
come in during the night and that
yesterdays train would leave today
at 100 o'clock. A small coupe was
reserved for three of us Americans
and we just had room enough to
crowd in. There was neither diner
nor sleeper, nor heaters so we
brought along a few loayes of bread,
bottle or two of liquid (honi sol
qui maly pense), a number of blan-
kets, and candles to light and warm
us, I shall not go into details Of
the TEDIOUS and hard trip except to
say that about 3 O'Clock that night
the train came to a standstill and
the conductor Whose taithfulness

FLEECED BY GYPsIEs.
Hesiers and "Speu Doctors" Find
Victims Here.

Gypsy healers and spell doctors
have fieeced two women in this city
during the last week. A gypsy camI
has been located near Chester. the
authorities have learned. In both
eases they refused to make public the
names of the victims. On wednes-
day a gypsy woman came to the
home OF a woman with a crippled
daughter and offered TO cure the lat
ter. While explaining her mystic
powers she noticed the mother wear
ing two diamond rings. one valued at
1925 and the other at S65.
The rings would have TO be in her
possession, the gypsy woman said.
before she could get the magic spir-
its TO work. The woman handed them
over to the gypsy, who gripped them
tightly in her hand. The gypsy con-
tinued her mysterious movements
until the other woman was called out
Of the room, when she made a hurried
exit taking the rings with her.
In another instance the woman was
reported to have fieeced an aged
Negress out of $50 as pay for curing
the rheumatism. State Detective
Baldwin made search of the vicinity
OF Claynont for the gypsy yesterday
but without avail. Later he learned
that the woman had played the same
game in Chester.
