IPIBISM Pl® Graphically Describ.d by the European Correspondent 0F fHE HUSTLER OF ROME. 14th, the day of Day>, When all Paris Deserts Street and ehop and by rft tl and by Rlv.r-Take to the Woods. I wrote of the fetes of | Mardi -Gras a nd Micareme.two great days in Par is bat days which were celebrated byjfestivities on the great boulevards of the city . I am inclinedfto think however that the Fren< h people e joy some othe r holidays even more, |for the reason that their fun is not confined to the streets but they seek the seclusion cf the river and forest. On May 14th, the celebration of Penteeost efor the great stores and offioes on thefamous boulevar 1, and Avenues as well as the little shops in quarters less frequented,were all clos ed and the absence of the crowds that usually fill these thouroghfares ma de them appear deserted and desolate-The May morning came and the May evening faded a perfect dayand though occasionally clouds fleckecd the blue and sunny sky, it was just for fun and not serious. What did the people do? I can. not tell you all they did, but some few went to the many matinee per formances, and I guess some went to church, while great throngs swarmed to the country. Those who lived up on the Marne and Seine went down the river, and those who lived down, went up, and those who lived near the middle either went up or down, or to Versailles, Fon» tainbleau or many of the other beau tiful environs of Paris. Near the great forest of Vincen nes is the beautiful country home es my law assosiate Hon. Arthur E Valois where I live and it was from here .hat I watched the curious thou sands. Thousands filled the fields and the beautiful green grass was specked here and there with many outstretch ed.and many playing games and running and jumping and laughing and singing, others with their great baskets of provisions their bottles, for of course not even the poorest citizens tail to carry these necessary articles, picnic on the green sward beaeith the shade of the great trees ■ while others cast their lines into the river, with infinite pleasure is found in catching what they call in Geor gia, minonws ’ and there they spend the day. Along in the afternoon by four clock many pack their baskets and bring their empty bottles back them and come to the boat landing and the tram-car stations, a -l wishing to be carried back at the same time. They come back laden with flowers from the fields a.l v arieties and bearing branch horn the trees and home-made ff alkihg canes and all sorts of sou -16 nrs of the country. I (flood by t 0 side of a workman who had B a thered a tew Johnny-jump-ups " Id dandelions and he was r^ln o to sell them for two but as everybody already au . flowers be could not dts- P° Be them. So h, oecome " all of a sudden and a pal pasbiug in a goi>, he toss d them half of his ths “ Jo ° these to iaughe'dau’ &1 ‘ 0,6 CrOwd Nnt i' “ ls g roat philanthropy. er * dld tbe erow d have flow- ’ - they had thousands of lit* dogs. t a Brettt day for the Clty d o gs tbesTa/n a ° d the Poißtfcr and tI J ‘ CUr ’ 8 aud «vervl ° UU ’ V hairSd dogß tbat •‘plugs” a 'T 801 ° V6r here ’ aud other kn U Hooner » and every to make Wllx<l| i et y all combined 8 x d ° Bsh --- regula 'ly take 11 • Pe ° P ° f ° med tO the boat ) heir turu « to catch “““allj „ ‘'"'“’"“’■J-Lua.l, °“»- elb “« ibeJr "' uuld l hen a fn-e»‘ r 1118 Ue igMor and cur.

Bev er e panaity a tuch e d for battery and I guess this is the reason they do not hit. And many were the girls in this line, flower crowned, and many pretty dresses showed stains of the grass, and the rocks and of the trees, where perhaps they had played Robin Hood or re clined for a pleasant repast. The girls were the stars in the line and their bright smiles, bright repartee and good humor made everybody laugh. When the moon came up the line seemed as great as at four. Some, growing weary of waiting and went to the resturant near by and order ed just what they could afford and some few indulged in the luxri»s of snails and champaign and oth ers went to the Minege near by. The Menege is the funniest thing of it’s kind I ever saw. The girls in Rome used to call them “msr ry go rounds” and the boys called them “Flying Jinny’s’’ The mu sic is ground out by a fellow who turus a great handle just like a well windlass aud this somehow blows a series of horns, and a row of sticks strike bottles partly fiill ed with water composing an octave aud five little automatons strike bells at the right time and the music is merry enough. In place of the customary horse or steam engine, they have bicycles upou which the girls with their pretty ankles aud the boys and the wo* men aud the men work together on the pedals until they fairly fly “around and ’round” Those who stood by and noticed the sights seemed to enjoy the fun equally as much, but after a while they would return to take their places in the line homeward bound and the men and the boys who had brought their guitars and flutes and horns blew and played air’s and music mingling with the laughters and the songs, made the night merry. How all got home that same night I don’t know, for as long as the moon lasted the line seemed just as long. Donald Harper. FOOT WASHING RESUMED.

THE HUSTLER OF ROME. SUNDAY JUNES, 1894 WOMAN FOLKS. THE DIVISION OF LOVE’S LABOR. ‘Tw»h she. ■ Not he, With bluflhiag cheek, yyh« swMtheai love dlaoiosed. *Twm he. Not she, la tones so weak United love Twas he, Not she, With lips aglow, Imparted drat a kiss ’Twas she, y Not he,; As you must know, Reciprocated this, 'Twas he, Not she, Who asked consent From stern hut loving sire. ’Twas she, Not he, Who plead assent Aud calmed parental ire. ’Twas she, Not he, Who named the day When hearts as one would throb. ”1 was ho, Not she, who had to pay The parson for his job.) THE CRADLE IS OBSOLETE!. ’ The cradle is fast becoming a curio, especially in its earlier hooded form. The modern Amer ican baby is not cradled and not carried, but taught to content its ■elf with a mattress like anyon elss, so that the phrase “the hand that rocks the cradle rules the world” refers to a custom that is now almost obsolete —Kansas City Star. ALL IN A TEACUP. One day at afternoon tea I saw the gentleman next me quickly capture and swollow the bubles on the top of his cup of tea. He felt my eye on him, and looked up to see me smiling cynically. “No,” he said in answer to my mute question, “I am not supersti tious K but I must confess to always capturing a cluster of bubbles on top of my tea because my old black mammy used to say : “Quick chile, eat dem bubbles ; dey mean good fortune.” “Oh. I could tell you more about a cup of tea than was ev*r dreamed of in your philosophy unless you were brought up in the South. Watch our hostess, put ting in the cream before the sugar. She is quite unaware that all who imbibe a cup of tea prepared in that way will be crossed in love. “See! You have two spoons with your cup of tea You will figure prominently at a wedding before the year is out. This clus ter of leaves at the bottom of my cup, with its few attendant strag glers, signifies a funeral. The leaves are all together at the bot tom of your cup —another sign of a wedding. "If a cluster of air bubbles floats about the sides of a cup look out for rain; if they remain in the o °nter, you may wear your tai weather hat. JUST SNAKES Little Eddie Coffer of Churn Creek Ohio, found a rattlesnake lying in the sun near the front door of his lather’s house The reptile was capt ured alive. It is four and one-half test long, and has eight rattles and a button. It will be presented to the Cincinnati! Zoo. Walter Clements, a Uniontown Ky., politician, who is running for sheriff, killed a snake with fourteen rattles the other day. He thinks this is ominous of auccess in his cam paign asseven is a lucky ntimber, and fourteen ought to be twice as jucky. A big chicken snake wriggled over the sleeping body of J. W. Odom at Pryorsburge, Ky. Odom woke up, He jumped to his feet and stepped on the snake. At last he got a light and killed the in truder. The creature was more than four feet long. The little child of James Craft of Blairstown Md.. was found playing with a live snake on the front doorsteps. The reptile didn’t seem tc want to hurt the child. But outsiders interfered with the sport, and his snakeship died for being too friendly. Harrison Boone of Morristown, Pa., killed a snake over six feet long with a pitchfork a few days ago. It was of au unusual variety, Xi’ack with two white stripes run- ning the whole length of its bvdy. The most remarkable snake sto ry of the year comes from Arman da, Mich., and relates that on me acre of ground in that place 140 srnkes were kiLed in one after noon, The crop of snake oil ex pected to banish rheumatism Ar maiada next Winter.
