raise the interest rate on the bonds i

previously floated, because these were not marketable at the old rate in competition with high interest-bearing industrial securities.

DEVELOPMENT OF COSTUME DESIGN IS SHOWN BY STUDENTS AT ART SCHOOL

Boastful Roman Driver Silences American 'Fare' ROME They are telling a story in the Roman cafes of how an American visitor to Rome came out second best in a boasting contest with a Roman cab driver. An American undertook to see Rome in a day and used the cab driver as a guide. The American was driven to all the great Roman monuments and took great interest in the buildings, always asking how long each took to build. At. St. Teter's, the cab driver confessed that it took 50 years to complete that structure. The American did not think that was such a great teat for he was certain such a build-

ALBUQUERQUE. N. M. A descrip tion of the Good Friday rites of tltt Penitente sect at Abiquiu, is given b. Mrs. Alida F. Sims, of Albuquerque who was an eye witness at one ol these observances. It was at this village that a party from Albuquerque saw two men tied to crosses this year for 25 minutes, as the climax of the rites. Mrs. Sim's story started with the arrival at the village. "The 'morada' or Penitente chapel was easily picked out nestling on the

Finally they were passing the new massive buildings occupying several city blocks containing the Italian law t ourts. "What's that?" inquired the America n . . "I don't, know," retorted the driver. "It wasn't there last night."

OLD BRASS TRUMPET REGALLS CIVIL WAR

WASHINGTON A battered brass speaking trumpet, taken from the hand of Captain J. Mayhew Wain-

vricht, as he lay dead on the decki

of bin ship, the U. S. gunboat Harriett Lane" in Galveston harbor. Jan. I. 1862, has been presented to Assistant Secretary Wainwright of the war department, decendant and namesake of the gallant officer, by P. C. Duff, of Houston, Tex., in whose family it has been preserved as a war relic for half a century. The trumpet was given to Duffs father by C. F. Raddatz. in later years connected with the Baltimore City college, but who as a member of the Confederate force which boarded the "Iine" alter the ship was shot to pieces in the fight, took it from the 'nand of the Lane's commander dead ai his post. In recalling ,10 Secretary Wainw right the tale of the old battle, when the Lane, .hot pounded by two Confederate vessels at short range, surrendered. Mr. -Duff told also of another tragic incident on the deck of the battered craft. Captain Wainwright' executive officer, he said, was Ueutenanr Lea, whose father, Major A. M. Lei. commanded the Confederate force which retook Galveston in the counter attack. Major Lea was first to step aboard the Lane he said, adding: "It is said thai one of the first objects that met his eyes was the body of his son ling on the deck of the Lane mortally wounded. The lieutenant died in the arms of his father a lew moments later and the next day he and Captain WainwrigV were buried in the same grave. Major Lea conducting the funeral service."

man lighting eighteen candles on a large triangle of wood placed in front of the altar. We could see that the images of the saints and the figure of Christ were draped in black. "The women and the girls knelt in front of the altar on a strip of canvas stretched upon the dirt floor and began to sing. The men and boys who

i had been lingering outside came troopin? in and knelt; then three old men j and one woman walked round and j round the triangle, passing in front of j the alter with a genuflexion while the responsive chanting was going on. j "We stepped outside; a faint, plain- ! tive piping attracted my friend and

"The flagellant then made a circuit of the cemetery and the procession returned to the morada over the stony path a distance of half a mile each way. The slow and tortuous journey consumed one hour and twenty minutes." In another procession seen the same day by Mrs. Sims, one of the Penitentes shouldered a cross up the steep path to "Calvario," accompanied by flagellents. Once the cross bearer stumbled and fell and his companions laid the great 'wooden beam upon him so that he was pinned to the path beneath it. Return on Knees When the cre.n of the hill was reached, the worshippers began making the return trip on their knees. Later m the day. Mrs. Sims attended the services of "las tinieblaes" in the chapel. These services represent the hours of darkness and chaos that followed immediately after the death of Jesus on the cross. The witness thus describes the scene: "The babies were taken out, the door and windows covered with blankets, the candles of the wooden triangle gradually extinguished. Just

"But the center figure caught and held the gaze a figure stripped to the waist with blood-drenched trousers a figure that at each step struck itself with a great whip that came away blood-stained. "Slap, slap came the crack of the lash. But the Penitente made no sound. His head was covered with a great black sack. Beside him a boy walked carrying a pail filled with salt water, into which the whip was dipped from time to time. "In front of him walked a woman carrying a hymnal, and singing a wailing chant. "The procession made its way to

LOST RIVER OF GOLD DRAWS MINERS INTO ALASKAN WILDERNESS EDMONTON, Alta Search Yor a lost river, a river of gold, was to be undertaken this year by several prospectors, including old-timers from the Yukon, and Alaska. This lost river bed, where the Peace river once flowed, is somewhere in the big bend of the Peace, bisected by a line drawn from Fort St. John to the mouth of the Battle river. Some years ago an Indian brought into Ft. St. John a fair sized nugget, which, according to the tale told by old timers oi the north, he discovered in a stream in the country to the northeast of the post. Soon after this an old trapper, a white man. who made Fort St. John his headquarters, came into the Fort with a quantity of coarse gold which he had washed from some stream in a similar direction to that from which the Indian hailed. Replenishes Supply He never visited his trap lines after this, living on the fat of the land in carefree idleness at the post. He often disappeared whenever his supplies of necessities ran low, and would be away for a few days, always returning with a fresh supply of gold. This aged trapper lived in this manner for a number of years. He died, as many trappers and north country men have, on the trail. His body was found frozen. With him went his secret, he never having told to anyone the location of .his find. The books of the Hudson's Bay Company still contain a large credit account in the name of the old trapper. Northmen who tell the story of the mystic Et Dorado north of the Peace, declare that the gold was only available after a heavy fall of snow, with which the old fellow apparentlywashed his mineral. From an analysis of the circumstances generally, it is thought that the place from which the gold was taken was some old river bed where the Peace once flowed but whether the story is correct or not remains to be proved.

SPECIAL PROGRAM AT WHITEWATER CHURCH

WHITEWATER, Ind.. June 7. The largest crowd in the history of the church Is expected to attend the formal dedication of the new Whitewater Christian church here June 19. Speaker for the occasion will be Rev. C. W. Cauble and Rev. J. J. Wright, of Indianapolis. Special music will be given. Dinner will be served free to all persons at-

The curb market on Broad St, Just below Wall St., New York city. In action. In the background can be seen the columns of the sub treasury building, across from which are the offices of J. P. Morgan The passing of the curb market will be a blow to New York's financial district, for it brought thousands of sightseers every day to watch the mad waving of hands from office windows to street brokers. On this spot for the past thirty-five years the hectic flourishing of fingers has meant the exchange of dollars. On June 10, however, the New York Curb Brokers' Association moves into its newly-erected building and thereafter all trading will be done indoors.

Death Valley Made Safe For Touring Motorists LOS ANGELES, Cal. Death Valley and the desert surrounding it have at last been made safe for travelers, in the belief of the Automobile Club of Southern California. Employes of the club have returned home with the announcement that they have completed the work of erecting metal guide signs in the almost trackless wastes of the valley, and that motorists no longer need fear to traverse it. All water holes and wells have ben so marked they can be found without trouble either at night or day, it is stated.

CAB DRIVERS OF ROME FIGHT TAXI INVASION ROME Taxicabs have Invaded Rome. New brightly painted vehicles

similar to those of New York have made their appearance, replacing as many horse-drawn cabs, which have held sway in the capital of the Caesars for centuries. The taxicat, though welcomed with open arms by the general mass of Romans, has met for years a stonewall opposition for the right to circulate in

Roman streets. The 5.000 cab drivers and livery men fought Us use and warned the city administration they would be defeated at election if the taxicabs were admitted.

The brother in charge of the rites conversed with the supposed 'lost soul..' - "Then the last candlelight flickered out. plunging us into thick blackness. Instantly the most deafening noise I had ever heard broke loose at close quarters. Chains rattled and clanked thunderously. Pitos mingled with wooden rattles. The sound of whips lashing flesh was heard. I changed my seat in the darkness. A heavy chain fell on my foot. The inferno ceased, and the candles were relighted. There the Brother of Light, which i.s another name for Pentitente, stood calm and unruffled. There was not a chain in sight."
