He "came out" In the fall of 1893
with between 5000, 600 and $500, 900 of
gold. He brought the woman and
tie went to Holister. Cal, where the
three lived with his sister. Mrs. Rose
Curtis.
In the spring of 1899 Carmack re-
turned to the Klondike. leaving the
woman and child at the home of his
sister In June at Dawson City he
met Mrs. Marguerite Laimee. She
was a large woman, handsome. ac-
cordIng to Yukon standards, and was
admired by the men who came from
the digglngs eager to lavish their gold
for the refnements of civilization
which Dawson City offered. She sold
them cigars and tobacco and 1t may

were lavish In payment. spilllng their

She mentions this detail Of her bus-

huence was derived altogether from
Carmack.
The two came out together In 1900
and went TO San Francisco Carmock
wrote to his sister from there that he
had lost his affection for Kate and
would not have anything more to do
with her. Kate sued for divorce, but
withdrew the action when she learned
that Carmack and Marguerite Lalmee
had been married at Olympia In Octo-
Der, 1900. and sued for separate main
tenance. Nothing seems to have come
of this litigation.

Antedates History and Was Part
of Early Ritual of Ancestor
Worship.

New YOrk.-At this time, when a
renaissance of marionettes has taken
place among Western people, 1t may
be of interest to tell about the Eastern
island which, many centuries ago was
the cradle of this art. Further back
than recorded history this form Of
drama existed In Java. The "vayang,"
or theater, of the Javanese includes
all other arts as we'll; they have al
most no painting or sculpture, except
the carving and painting of their
marionette puppets, for the ancient
temple-sculpture of Java is Of Hindu,
and not .Javanese, origin, writes Tyra
De Kleen In the Christian Science
Monitor.
In architecture the only thing pecu-
liar to Java is the 'pendoppo." an
open pillared hall with sloping roof,
which may have one or two walls or
none at all Its purpose is for way
ang" performances.
Javanese literature consists mainly
of the books from which the subjects
of the vayang plays are taken.
Javanese music Is the "gamel;tn,"
an orchestra of various Instruments,
which accompanies vayang.
Origin In Shadow Figures.
While the Western theater has a
naturalistic origin, having started
from real life, which it is meant to
depict, the Javanese vayang originated
with unreal shadow figures. which
were superseded by more humanlike
puppets and finally developed into per-
formances with living actors
The most ancient form of vayang is

lava Had First
Puppet Theater

the "vayang purva," which In Java
can be traced back to the Seventh
century, but probably is much older.
The word "vayang" means shadow"
but has come to include all sorts of
drama, as developed from the shadow
play. "Purva" means oldest" and
"kulit" means "hide" Both names are
used for the same kind of yayang,
namely, the shadow plays with fiat
puppets, carved in hide, gilded and
painted with very minute ornamental
ton. These puppets have exaggerated
profiles; their bodies are out of pro-
portion, with enormously long. thin
arms, which reach nearly to the
ground.
To the unaccustomed European eye
they look like grotesque cnricatures
meant to be ridiculous. But except In
the figures of clowns and monsters
they are not intended to be SO.
First Religious Rite.
In common with the drama of the
Hindus, the Greeks and other people.
the Javanese theater has been the d.
rect outcome of religious ceremonies.
The vayang purva sprang from the
primitive ancestor worship when the
she dows of ancestors were invoked in
order to give their descendants an op-
them, asking for protection. advice
and all sorts of favors.
Originally the head of the family
invoked the shadows in this way.
Later this task was handed over to
the priests, or the shamans. From
these developed the professional "da-
lang" the man who manipulates the
puppets, while he narrates the story
of the play and speaks the roles of
the performing figures.
The "dalang" sits cross-legged on
mat In front of white linen curtain,
which is stretched between two pillurs
of the pendoppo. Over his head hangs
an oil lamp. Between this lamp and
the screen, on which the shadows are
projected, the "dalang" moves his pup
pets from below, using sticks of wood
or tortoise shell fastened to their
hands. Behind him the gamelan plays.
Source Of Plays.
The most ancient legends performed
are derived from Malayo Polynesian
myths interviewer with stories taken
from all the Oriental peoples. Later
the Hindus came to Java with their
religion and SanslSrit literature. From
that time the subjects of the plays
xssn fob no T,I< III.
and the Ramayana.
Probably the most beautiful vayang
purva ut the present time Is the one
belonging to Pangeran (Prince) Kusu-
mudiuingrnt, a brother of the sultan
of Surakarta. Through his hospitality
had the opportunity of witnessing per-
formances In his house, and also of
getting valuable information from
him. From the shadow play later de-
veloped the "vayang klitik" (also
called 'vayang karucil'O, which means
small" "the little people" Here the
puppets are carved from soft wood
gilded and painted. They are not fiat
like the purva figures, nor round like
the still later ''vayang golek." but
something half way between, like a
double-slded relief.
In this form Of vayang the specta-
tors looked at the puppets themselves,
and the shadows were abandoned. The
Idea Of the figures representing an
cestors disappeared, and the plays be-
came secular In character. aAn t !

Fuel of Ancient Rome.

The fuel of the ancient Romans WAS
almost exclusively charcoal. This was
burned in open pans, without CRATE
or fiue, and gave economical heat for
living rooms and baths.
