The Schloss Kits, famous old cnstlo
on the River Moselle, destroyed by flro
recently was the only cnstlo of the
scores along the Moselle that hud
never been captured by storm, .never
surrendered nnd never despoiled. It
was built early In the twelfth century,
nnd the territory It governed became
famous because of the "peaco of Eltz,"
a pence that was regulated by nn oath
taken by all subjects of the ruler, nnd
by his own family. Tho oath provided
that anyone who killed or injured any
one else should be banished forever.
Guests were obliged to take the oath
upon entering the castle, and were
governed by It as long as they stayed
In the territory.
The castle had four chateaux, one
each for four branches of the family,
nnd these circled tho cnstlo house
Itself. Many legends grew from the
old walls, the best known behjg that
of Agnes, a beautiful girl who refused
to wed with a rival lord, nnd when the
lover appeared nt the castle gates wl|h
an army to seize her she donned armor
and led the attack that resulted in hi:
death and the defeat of his army. A:
the soldiers tied, however, n bowman
turned and sent nn arrow that found
h place In the heart of the girl. Her
armor Is still,shown at the castle with;

of evening fall and the entertainments
of the wealthy begin that we discover
the existence of music in Egypt at all.
We have to penetrate some brlllla'htly
lighted hall full of guests and attend
ant slaves; and at the far end of the
luxurious room we shnll see a band oft
men nnd women playing on their In
struments, amid all the clatter of the
dishes and the chatter of the guests.
They nre all slaves, and before each
piece they play they do obeisance to
the mnster of the house. The business
of these slaves Is to attend the barr-
quets of the great and piny and sing
for the amusement of the company,
We find them constantly represented
In sculpture In groups of from two to
eight persons—some women and some
men—playing on various Instruments,

lady angels except In nrt.

they are blondes. But tho, archangels

passing through the village may climb
