STIRRING INCIDENT IX MOROCCO
I KICKERS after adventure
need go no further t!;nn
Morocco for stirring Inci-
dent. Let them merely be
captured by the tribesmen
who ore in revolt niruiiirst
the Sultan and If they live to tell the
itory publishers will be fager enough
:o buy it. They ore fairly certain of
receiving courteous treatment. They
(nay be chopped to pieces as an ex-
Implo of -what the followers of the
orophet can do to a dog of nn un
believer but until that moment arrives
they will live as well as their captors
wlilen if not up to western standards
Is betier thau not living at all. This Is
suggested by the story told by Mr
Harris the correspondent of the Lou-
Ion Times who speaks from expert
ioe. Ills capture and retention by
ihe tribesmen constituted almost an
international incident as his captors
tesired and his release after three un-
comfortable weeks was the result only
!f much skilled diplomacy on the part
Jf the British foreign ottlce.
Mr. Harris la an old baud in the East
He has lived lu Morocco many years
nd knows everybody there that Is
worth knowing. He has lived with
ihe Arabs of tne Yemen and escaped
from their desire to kill Christians by
o to say the skin of his teeth. Hut
his capture shows that he has not yet
fully fathomed the guile of the Orien
tal. The troops of the Sultan had just
burned a village and Mr. Harris went
out to see what had been done. Ho
was unarmed and was accompanied
only by his Moorish groom. Out on the
plain he was shot at and a retreat
was ordered when his movement was
Stopped by the approach of two tribes
men whom he knew who advanced
With conventional signs of friendliness.
They wanted to know what the Sultan
Intended doing and asked him to come
to the chief so that he might get
messages to carry to his majesty
Inder promises of safe conduct he
went and was promptly pounced upon
and captured by retainers of ltaisull
the chief.
Rnlsuli according to bis story. Is a
handsome young man mild lu manner
and courteous lu address. Mr. Harris
had known hlui well in Tangier before
he took to the hills. He received the
Englishman warmly and told him that
uo harm would come to him as long as
the Sultan made no attack. If this
happened ho would sorrowfully be
compelled to kill him. I'erhnps he
would kill him anyway for by what
better means could he embarrass Lis
enemy than by killing a prominent
Christian and an Englishman at that?
This was all said lu the presence of
Mine 21100 tribesmen most of whom
were flourishing their knives and
hangers In a most threatening manner.
In the meantime everything possible
would be done for the comfort of the
prisoner.
They put him In Jail. It was n very
small very dark and very dirty room.
.When the prisoner's eyes became ac
customed to the darkness he saw on
the floor the headless trunk of a man.
That was a cheerful beginning anil
Mr. Harris's feelings were not quieted
by the remarks made by some men
who a littio later came In to remove
the corpse. The intimation wag that
soon there would be another In the
same room and of a giaour. For nine
days he was kept In this room. He
got in quantity all ho wanted to eat
except oner wheu for thirty-sis hours
there was food for no one. and save
for a few kicks and slaps with slippers
he was not misused. He was not
allowed to change his clothes or to
wash his face. Every evening at sun-
down he was taken out to have a con-
versation with Italsuli who kept assur-
ing lilm that possibly but not prob-
ably his life would be spared. Once
as nn earnest of this be was taken
down to a gully to see the mutilated
body of a Moorish soldier. Aviso hail
liecu captured and Jokingly assured
him that a few days might see him In
the same condition.
At the end of nine days on a hot
moonless night he was put on a mule's
back and taken up into the mountains
where he was the captive of a tribe
friendly to him. There he remained
for twelve day. In great luxury as
compared with What lie had endured
at the hands of Rnlsuli. He became.
lu a sense one of the tribe shaved
his head and adopted their customs
generally it was a very pleasant
vacation nnd would have been thor-
oughly enjoyed had not there been the
very uneomfortnble feeling that should
the negotiations fall through he would
be put out of the way with small cere-
mony. In the end he got his release
although It almost led to bloodshed
nmnng the tribesmen and with great
ceremony was conducted Into Tangier.
Thus ended the adventure which
merely shows that the Balkans have
not a monopoly on the exciting Inci-
dents of the modern world.
A NIGHT IN A KING'S TOMB.
Writing of some of the many old
places In which she has slept during
her travels around the world Jessie
Ackerman Bays: While traveling in
that most interesting section of India
Cashmere I heard of a wonderful
tomb of some ancient King and was
urged not to leave the country without
seeing it. It was about a day's journey
from where I was stopping nnd I
started on the trip one morning hi a
government cart (British) with a native
guide who nlso acted as Interpreter
and a coolie driver. Expecting to re-
turn that night I took neither bedding
nor logsafse. .Winter was Just settuig
s
in and men looked wise as we started
that morning predicting all kinds of
unpleasant weather. The road was
abandoned during the winter because
it led over a great waste and no pro-
vision was made for travelers. Fifteen
miles from our destination nn accident
befell our horse. Darkness was fast
gathering. The only possible refuge
was the King's tomb which we had
started to see so we decided that the
only thing to do was to walk the dis-
tance. I have always been fond of
walking but I cannot truthfully) say
that I enjoyed that fifteen-mile tramp
through the cold an t' darkness. Reach-
ing the tomb at last we decided that
It would be best X jr me to take up my
quarters within the tomb the guide
remaining with me while the coolie
walked to a village some miles farther
on in search of another horse. It was
dark beyond description Jnslde the
tomb and when the footsteps of the
coolie could uo longer be heard every
sound save one died away on the still-
ness of the night. I made my way
cautiously to the furthest corner grop-
ing along against the wall of the tomb
thinking to take what comfort could
be had from so miserable a situation.
No sooner had I settled for flie night
than I heard the most weird uuenrthly
sound that ever pierced human ears.
The uncanny place had suddenly taken
on the atmosphere of life. There was
a sound of rushing of wings that froze
the blood iii my veins. My heart
seemed to have stopped beating. Sud-
denly I discovered what It was. A
horde of horrid bats had awakened
from their letharf. y and simultaneously
started on a tour of investigation.
Hats are ugly creatures. I' would
rather have sixteen active babies all
clutch my hair at the same time than
surrender my locks to one sportive bat
especially of the Inlian variety. Their
wings and shrieks became a rhythm to
which my tired senses kept time until
bleessed slumber came and the morn-
ing brought a pair of fresh horses and
a coolie laden with breakfast for two.

SAVED THE COLD.
Surgeon-General Sternberg had a
peculiar experience at the battle of
Bull Run. Just before going in he was
approached by an Irish sergeant-major
of his regiment who handed him a bag
of gold coin weighing three or four
pounds. "Doctor" said the Irishman.
"I know I'm to be kilt enthlrely an' I
want you to take care of this money
an' see that It gets to the ould folks
at home In ould Ihreland." The doctor
had no time to remonstrate or make
any other arrangement for the Irish-
man dropped the bag into the surgeon's
lap and hurried away to his place at
the head of the column. All through
two bloody days Dr. Sternberg carried
that bag of gold with his surgical in-
struments nnd it was a burden and
embarrassment to Lim. He tried to get
rid of It but he couldn't find any one
willing to accept or even share the
responsibility and he couldn't throw
It away for the sake of the "ould
folks at home."
Toward the close of the second day
the surgeon was tnken prisoner. He
lost his surgical instruments nnd his
medicine case but clung to the gold
and making a belt of his necktie and
handkerchief tied it around his waist
next to the skin to prevent Its confisca-
tion by his captors. During the long
hot and weary march that followed
the gold pieces chafed his flesh and his
waist became so gore and blistered as
to cause him Intense suffering but' he
was bound that the "ould folks at
home" should have the benefit of thai
money nnd by the exercise of great
caution and patience managed to keep
It until he was exchanged with other
prisoners nnd got back to Washington.
Here he found his regiment In enmp.
nnd one of the first men to welcome
him was the Irish sergeant-major who
was so delighted to learn that the doc-
tor had saved bis money that he got
drunk and gambled It all away the
first night. Washington Star.
CLIMBING MOUNT HOOD.
An excellent wagon road leads from
the WHlamett valley to within five
miles of the summit of Mount Hood.
To reach the top involves much toll-
some climbing and no small amount of
danger. Despite these obstacles the
peak has been ascended by thousands
of persons nnd ouly one fatal accident
In making the descent has been re
corded That occurred two years ago.
Although the air Is extremely rare and
tho temperature low a number of per-
sons have passed Jhe night on the
topmost crest.
From the summit the scene Is one
of indescribable grandeur nnd beauty.
Here you are lifted nbove the clouds
so far away that the world lies remote
beneath the eye: cities land towns
shrink Into Insignificance. Vast indeed
Is the panorama outspread to view.
Forests mountains plains valleys nnd
streams grow indefinite and unsubstan-
tial like a subdued picture floating
in the sky. An all-pervading sense of
the unreal takes possession of the soul.
Above the ethereal strata of tho clouds
you can gaze down upon them. The
cloud effects are wonderful. Looking
In all directions you fancy your eyes
are ranging over a vast shoreless
ocean. Yet there Is a wildly tumbled
and tossed aspect that the sen even
when shaken by the most furious
tempest does not assume. While the
boundless stretch of clouds remind you
of the vehement sen yet the fleecy
masses seem far too light nnd airy for
the limitless waters of the Pacific
with its fnr-reaching waste of waters.

ECONOMICAL MARKETING.
Marketing and economy are or
should be gynonymous terms. A prop-
er conception of the meaning of ;he
word economy is necessary in order to
grasp the fulness of either U-r;1!. Econ-
omy lu buying means to pay as much
as a thing is worth and uo mice. Ju-
dicious marketing means l a. Air. ing
things in their best condition and in
their season and in not buying i.ui.y or
less of perishable goods than what is
needed for each day. Violation of this
most essential rule Is a source cl much
waste of money. Economy does not
mean stinginess. Enough is enough.
Generosity does not consist In a lavish
superfluity of food or drink.
Flour grains and dried fruit will
keep for nn indefinite time if stored in
a dry place. Beef and mutton should
be kept in a dry cool place for some
time before eookiug but veal and lamb
should be cooked when freshly killed.
Fish and vegetables cannot be bought
too fresh. Poultry should be cooked
when fresh but game requires more
time to develop the flavor.
The best place to market Is at the
large stores where there is a large pa-
tronage and quick sales. In smaller
stores goods get stale by standing so
long on. the shelves.
NEW WINDOW DRAPERIES.
By- economy is not meant to buy the
cheapest or the highest priced foods.
In meats the cheapest Is not the most
economical since it Is apt to be inferior
and tough In which case It would be
the most expensive. The old saying
that the best Is the cheapest applies es-
pecially to meats. American Queen.
The question of window and arch-
way draperies is a particularly live one
to the present day householder. We
are entering upon what an English
writer terms "a renaissance of interior
decoration" and the flood tide of
French and Italian designs that mark
nil new fabrics quite sustains his con-
clusion. There is no phase of this
study in which the impulse cf Inven-
tion is felt more strongly than in that
which deals with new draperies nnd
their counterfeits wall papers. The
richest of to-day's novelties in furni-
ture coverings and draperies are all in
combinations that imitate the subdued
tones of the late sixteenth and seven-
teenth centuries. Moire damask in
palest tan or the green of the mignon-
ette ever which are impressionistic
cream or pink flowers nnd designs in
leaf and scroll that unite the pale
shades of green blue rose and brown-
ish tans. Is conspicuous. In all the
new brocades and damasks whether
costly or cf medium jrrade and again
repeated in lace embroideries wall
papers and the more beautiful cre-
tonnes the tendency is toward the ex-
quisitely detailed conventional garland
and basket and lover's knot designs
which characterized French decora-
tions of every class for 100 or more
years preceding Napoleon. At th? same
time there is to be seen in draperies of
high texture and on embroidered net
curtains a revival of Venetian and
Florentine ornament. Harper's Bazar.
Surprise Sausages This is a nice
breakfast dish. Halve some sausages
(one-half pound) nnd remove their
skins." Coat each piece with well-
mashed potato then egg and bread
crumb each one; fry them in boiling
fat. Drain and serve on a paper dolly;
garnish prettily with pnrsley.
Highland Sconces To one pound of
flour allow four ounces of fresh butter.
Rub it in thoroughly; then add as
much liot milk mixed with two beaten
eggs ns will make a soft dough. Mix
quickly roll out cut into shapes and
bake on a hot griddle or a thick frying
pan. Serve hot cut open and buttered.
Kidney Toast Gently stew three
sheep's kidneys in a little water until
perfectly tender then remove all skin
und gristle and pound them in a mortar
with one ounce of butter till they form
a smooth paste. Squeeze a little lemon
into them and season highly with pep-
per nnd salt. Spread the paste on nice-
ly buttered toast and serve very hot.
Sardine Eggs For each egg to be
used allow two sardines. Boil the eggs
hard nnd take out the yolks carefully
without breaking the whites. Scald
the sardines season with salt cayenne
nnd lemon juice; chop very small and
then pound with butter aud yolks of
eggs. Fill the boiled whites of eggs
with this mixture; press together and
serve when set nnd perfectly cold on
lettuce leaves coated with aspic jelly.

HAIR BOWS.
Hair bows grow larger.

the neck it may be Immense.
Two bows are but the "hunting hair
of the horsey set over again.
Broad black ribbon is most seen and
n mong young girls is ubiquitous.
One pretty girl ties her cresses at

Women as well as girls wear the
coil so low on the back of the heck
that it rests on the shoulders'.
When girls are really truly grown
up the bows are replaced by shell
slides though those who look youn
often cling-to the bows. Phlladelida

LONG-DISTANCE BELLES.
It is a familiar statement that women
who go to the country for the summer
seem to find more delight In their trips
to town than their sojourn at the
summer resort. The frequency with
which they come into town depends on
their ingenuity in inventing some press
lng necessity for seeing the dress
maker the dentist or the doctor. It
is usually the dentist who serves them
best js an excuse for he may be made
the pretext for a visit to town at any
time.
The superiority of the girl who goes
oftenest to town over her associates in
the. hotel is always noticeable. She
shares temporarily the continued tri
umph of the engaged girl who as ev
erybody knows Is looked upon by the
other young women as worthy of envy
In the highest degree.
Next to the girl who is engaged and
the girl who goes oftenest to town the
girl who is most frequently called up
on the telephone is regarded as a
favorite of fortune. To be called up on
the long-distance 'phone from New
York must mean something serious
fmmmer boarders say. It is expensive
enough to imply that the engagement
is almost ready to announce.
To be called up once a week to the
'phone will fill the other young women
at the hotel with excitement while to
be called up daily fills the hearts of
the others with chagrin not excludiu;
the engaged one and the one that goes
oftenest to town.
It is only by these vicarious methods
that girls may be belles in the summer
hotels to-day. The number of men in
these places is so small nnd most of
them are so young that actual superior
ity among the girls struggling for their
Attention is a hollow victory. Indian-
apolis News.
' BEAUTY DON'TS.
Don't indulge in the bric-a-brac habit;
it is responsible for more wrinkles and
crow's-feet than age or illness.
Don't scorn to learn of an almond-
eyed Japanese the secrets of retaining
a smooth unfurrowed face. The se
cret is that she displays nothing in the
drawing room except a lovely flower
and a screen.
Don't get tired if you care to preserve
the pristine beauty of a rose-leaf com-
plexion. Don't shop that is don't sMp the
whole day long in feverish excitement
running bargains to earth. Not only
are dress and temper ruined but com-
plexions as well.
Don't wear gloves too new or too old.
New ones cause wrinkles because of
their newness; old ones because of
their want of respectability. Gloves
are worn too much anyway.
Don't always be doing something;
have intermittent attacks of idling..
Don't neglect the afternoon "forty
wiuks." If you don't rest your mirror
will show a new line in your face ev-
ery day.
Don't sleep with -the hand under the
cheek; it will numb and wrinkle the
skin.
Don't lot the jaw drop just at the
moment of falling asleep; It tends to
make lines on either side of the mouth.
Don't use powder on the face. It digs
its way into every line and digs it
deeper and deeper. '
Don't be afraid of friction for the
face; freshness Is produced by the
tepid bath in which bran has been
stirred followed by long friction. This
keeps the blood at the surface.
Don't indulge in the essentially femi-
nine habit of "knitting the brow;" take
life less strenuously.
Don't always be thinking of some-
thing. Sometimes think of nothing.
Don't let a day pass without relax-
ing limbs muscles and expression.
Don't fret and don't worry these are
the best cosmetics. AVorry is called
our national disease and "American-
Itis" is Its distinctive name.
Don't "putter;" either work rest or
play. "Puttering" is twin sister to
worrying.
Don't put too much of yourself into
the ordering of the household or the
management of the servants If you
wish to keep fagged cheeks and hol-
low eyes at a distance.
Don't get wildly excited if Bridget
has neglected to dust the legs of the
hall table. Neither the welfare of your
family nor that of the nation Is in-
volved. Don't exhaust all your reserve force
over petty cares. Facli time that a
woman loses control over her nerves
she moves a fraction of an inch farther
on in tho path that leads to premature
old age.
Don't forget that an ounce cf preven
tion Is worth several pounds of cm.
It is better to begin to take care of
complexions before they begin to show
wear and tear.
Don't think it supernnturally vir-
tuous to disregard beauty. The divine
gift of beauty is tho second great bless-
ing of life health being the first
