THE KANSAS CITY JOURNAL, TUESDAY, NOVEMBER 1898. 9 BUSHELS OF PEARLS FORCOTTKX RACE IX 3HSSISSIPPI VALLEV STORED THEM One llnndred Txtononnd Hnre Ileen Dloo cred In Tiro Depolt In Mate of Ohio Were Ruined Tliclr Lone HorlnL From the Boston Transcript. Immense quantities or prehistoric pearls liaie been discovered during the last few cars in the ancient mounds erected by a forgotten race in the Mississippi valley, at certain points in Ohio, and the evidence thus obtained proves that t-omC of the chiefs whose people formerly inhabited that region did actually possess treasures In this form which far exceeded in value those owned by the richest crowned heads to-day. In fact, there are no collections of pearls in existence at the present time that would compare at all with those gathered by the aboriginal connoisseurs referred to. In some of the mounds pearls have been found, not by hundrcdb or thousands, but by bushels larce numbers of them approaching or ei en exceeding in size a hazelnut.

How such enormous stores of them were gathered is a problem not easily soiled. The pearls were certainly obtained from a species of mussel called the "unlo," which Is ttlll found in great' abundance in many of the streams of this country: but in those dajH the shellfish In question mut have been tar more plentiful than now. No more beautiful pearls exist in nature than Utoec yielded by the unlo, and the collections described must have been magnificent indeed In the period of their glory. Unfortunately, all of them haie been rulnea by decay due to long burial though an occasional specimen reveals something of Its pristine Iieauty when its outer layers are peeled off. In the famous Effigy mound, near Chll-licothe, was found more than a gallon of pearls, with two skeletons.

All had been drilled with holes, made with a heated copoer wire. This drilling was undoubtedly for the purpose of attaching them to clothing or belts ns illustrated by the fact that or 500 had been sewed originally upon a shirt worn by one of the skeletons. In other places in the same region more than forty bears teeth with pearls set in them wire discovered. From mound In the Little Miami valley Professor F. V.

Putnam obtained over CU.O00 pearls, nearly two bushels, drilled and un-drilled. The two deposits yielded upward of 100,000 pearls. Plenty of evidence ns to the possession of great stores of pearls by the early aborigines of this country is afforded by the writings of the first explorers of the New "World. The attention of Columbus and other Spanish discoverers was attracted to the and a Btory having a bearing on the same subject Is told of the followers of De Soto, who-came upon an Indian town near what is now Tampa bay. At one end of the town was a temple, on the top of which was perched a wooden fowl with glided eyes.

In these eyes were pearls of huge size. When, the Indian queen, whose name was Uclta. welcomed the strangers, she drew from oier her head u. long string of pearls and threw It around the neck of the leader of the expedition. The Spaniards returned this courtesy by robbing the tombs in the neighborhood, obtaining from them about fifty pounds of pearls.

sj 8 Mme. Kalllope Papalexopulu, who died not long ago at her home in Nauplia, was called "the Greek Mme. Roland." She was a woman of exceptional gifts, and had a conspicuous part In the struggle for Greek independence and in the reiolutlon whlcn put the present king on the throne. Of recent years she had led a quiet and retired life. A prominent Spaniard, a man who knows both this country and his own land, attributes the superior vigor of the United States to the strength in mind and body of our women.

"Glio American wiies," lie says, "to a million voung men of Spain, and the nation In half a century will take its plaee again among the great nations of Europe." It is plausible theory, but we fear that, with all thtir -virtues, our American girls are not quite unselfl-h enough to respond to a Spanish call Tor volunteers. Ladles' Home Journal: To make attractive nursery picture frames, take two lengths of picture molding each about three feet long, and tack them to the wall a foot apart, the lowest being about three feet from the ground. Before nailing plate three small blocks behind the upper ono to obtain sufficient space between it and the wall to slip in glass behind It. If desired a piece of the molding may be fitted at each end. This makes a perminent frame In which the pictures may bechanged as often as is desired.

Being low they are within easy -view of the children. Moldings may be obtained at from 3 cents per foot upward. It Is whispered that empire gowns are to be worn before the season is much older. For the slim joung girl or the stately woman of absolutely perfect figure they are picturesque, but not eiery woman is wise enough to know this and hence one sees at eiery revival of the empire stiles over-adipose dames of 50. exuberantly hipped, clad in little empire frocks only lit for lily-like damsels of 18.

Now the only people who look really well in empire styles are those who. no matter what their age is. lack hips. It is quite possible for a matron of 40 to appear at her very best In a gown of this sort if she be of the proper build. The print fad has Invaded the "sweet-stuff shops," and the simpering French coquette painted in pink on a piece of blue satin no longer monopolizes the top of the fashionable bon-bon box.

Reproductions on satin of fine engranngs, etchings and pen-and-ink sketches ornament the coiers of some of the smartest receptacles for iced chestnuts or candled cherries, and chocolates and fondants are packed in squares of rough linen paper, decorated fancifully with Pierrots and soldiers, cuplds and athletic girls, all executed in black and white Jaunty cocked hats of black satin, with the American colors for a band, and miniature packing cases labeled all over with the cabalistic scrawls of express and shipping checks, are also used for sweetmeats. The dinner gown worn by Mrs. McKinlcy at the White Houso on Thanksgii Ing- day is of peau de sole, of blue and opalescent tones, brocaded In white velvet, with a delicate design of daisies and chrjsanthe-mums. The general effect of the gown is princess. The skirt has a demi-train and opens In front oier a tabller of Gobelin blue satin, embroidered in pearK Jabots of marquise lace outline the tabller.

Marquise lace over blue satin forms the foundation of the high-necked bodice, the peau de sole outlined with pearls being ap-pliqued oier it. The lest Is of Gobelin blue satin, embroidered with pearls in necklace design. Jabots of lace from the shoulder to the waist join the jabots of lace en the skirt and add to the princess effect. The sleeves are of peau de sole, finished at the hand with the marquise lace. The hlgn stock collar is made of the satin, and is finished at the back with tall points.

Lady Henry Somerset has alwajs been such a busy woman that when her health gave out and sne was obliged to go into the country for a ret, she found it the hardest task she had ever undertaken. Her home, Eastnor Castle, is one of the most picturesque old places in England, and an object of special admiration to Trances "Willard. Lady Henry's lifelong friend and fellow worker. To beguile the tedium of her exile from work in the great world, Taiili Henrv has been modeling In clay. Among other subjects she has modelled a statuette of Miss Willard.

The statuette Is about eighteen inches high, and represents Mis Willard with her left hand extendedan attitude characteristic of her when sneaking in public. Her dress falls In oft. graceful folds, and her line features, beautifully shaped head and abundant hair hav. been faithfully reproduced. A number of casts- have been taken.

These are to be liorv-tlnted and old for the benefit of the Duxhurpt Industrial Farm colony. Mis Willard was deeply in this home, one of the buildings of which was named in her honor. Harper's Bazar: Fancy work Is a term that is especially suited to the many new and varied kinds of work that are commonly being sent in to the Decorative Art Society, and as the standard Is high, the workmanship must needs haie the professional finish. Marqueterle work Is attaining a remarkable degree of proficiency, and there ore many exceptionally good now on exhibition in Inlaid tables, plates and boxes of different shapes and sizes. A box large enough to really be of ue shows a most elaborate pattern in two shades pf wpod on the front, while the top Is finished simply with a hand of the lighter wood very carefully polished; the colorings of the wood haie been well chosen and the pattern Is one that shows off this stjle ot work to advantage.

A case for holding photographs Is one of the small pieces that find a ready sale. It is made or bits of tapestry embroidered In colored silks and bright spangles In the shape of a book, with a frame inside for photographs, and is lined with siik or satin and bound with a fancy goln braid. It Is prettiest In the delicate cc orlngs, and holds a number of photographs. A dainty little jewel casket, also made of tapestry. Is another design of work that Is decidedly fashionable.

It Is a round-top box bound with gold braid, lined with satin, covered with tapestry, and with effective corners and fastenings of gold or silver. These cakets are of different sizes, and are partitioned pff so that jewelry of dlN ferent shapes can be held therein. The caned wood frames and panels are alo lery effective, and show a surprising quality of workmanship. They are to be had In different shapes and sizes, as well as In the small sizes for the ordinary photograph. There are many different patterns, most of them In scroll work, and the carving- and staining of the wood are as finished as possible.

There is always a demand for photograph frames of all materials, and a surprising -variety is always turned out. The ribbon-work, which has reached a man clous degree of perfection, is especially adapted for photo frames, and a most charming specimen of white satin Is embroidered with forget-me-nots done In the smallest riblon obtainable and with a scroll-work of gold thread This frame Is put Into an outside rim of gilt thai seems to show off partlcularlv well the delicate coloring of the embrolderv. Embroidered panels show to the greatest adiantape what superb work can be done. One of the handsomest that haie been tihiblted is embroidered on a piece of white satin that is appliqued on to an ollie pale green satin. The (lowers and flr-lrn of the pattern nre in pinks, vellows greens and whites, the various stitches showing the colors of the "IIks In the different shades.

Since the wearing of fringes has come in again, many of the girls haie taken to making them themselies, as a handsome well made fringe is a lery expensiie thing to bui. Strtnds of pretty beads and spangles mav be had for lery moderate prices, and fringe making Is a nice sort of fancv work for any girl to try. One New ork girl Is making herself a beautiful fringe for trimming the bodice and down the front seams of the skirt of a black satin evening gown. On a narrow- eilier cord, -which she bought for 5 cents a jard. she is sewing nrands of small beads of alternate cut steel and black jet; the fringe when completed will be about tne inches long, and on the end of each strand she has sewed a larger bead as a finish.

Someone else was heard of the other day as making a ribbon fringe, which was ex-nred J5 and less work than the one made of beads. It was of narrow-black taffeta ribbon about half an inch wide. A band of the ribbon was taken for a foundation, and on this were folded oier in a point at the top and sewed PnTenf f.Ur ,0 "Ve 'leS in length. At the end of each piece was a large jet bead. Any colored ribbon could be used In making this fringe, and the ends finished off with beads, spangles or sequins.

A lery pretty idea, li to make the fringe of the different shades of one color. For Instance, all the shades of green from dark to light, with opal beads at the ends.

Uixhop's Fashionable Life VVai Too Much for the Simple Old Clergy man From the Countr An Embarrassing Mlxtake. Frcm the Cornhlll Magazine. I once asked a district nurse how the various sick cases had been going on during my absence from the parish. At once the look which I knew so well crossed her face, but her natural professional pride stroie for the mastery with the due unc-tuousness which she considered necessary for the occasion. At last she eiolied the following strange mixture: "Middling well, sir; some of 'em's gono straight to glory, but I am glad to say others are nicely on the mend." On another occasion a man who belonged to a workingmen's club in tne parish was telling me the strange history of his life.

He had been deserted by his father and mother and more or ies dragged up by an old aunt who had taken him in. From the age of 12 he had. had to light his own battle and uncommonly well he had fought it. I could see how proud he naturally enough was of his success. But In the midst of his boasting he seemed suddenly to realize that perhaps he owed something to a higher power, or, at least, he ought to say so; so he went on: "You see, sir, I 'aie alwaja 'ad to fend for myeen iver since I was a scrap of a lad" then a pause "leastwise, In course, wl' a bit o' 'elp from th' It was certainly quaintly put, but I beheie genuinely meant.

Speaking of the undue stress often laid on little things the local papers of our country towns are at times delightful in this way. Of course, they alwajs contain full accounts of knife-and-fork teas held at the Fothering-bj-cum-SIocum Primitue Methodist New Connection Mission room, with a complete list of the "teamakers" Miss Jones, Master T. Jones, the Misses P. L. and K.

Smiths, etc, and how the guests heartily partook of the good fare kindly proiided by Mr. and Mrs. Knight, etc. A local paper, howeier, which I hap. pened to see the other dav.

surpassed itself In Its "News From Our Villase." 1 suppress the name of the lillage. but cannot withhold the naturo of the "news." It ran somewhat as follows: "LastThurs- daj Mr. Thomas farm laborer, killed a sow weighing stone. She was, indeed, a splendid specimen of the 'porcine' species; we are informed that, in spite of her great size, she was anie to waiK in and out oi her sty to the last." AVhat an infinitude of pathos lies in those three simple "to the It Wna All Neir to Him. An old clergyman who had held a cure In the depths of the country for the greater Dart of his life had occasion to consult his bishop on a certain matter and.

in answer to his letter, recelied an imitation to sleep the night at the palace For forty or fifty jears he had practically led the life a reclue and It was after many cogitations that he decided to take the journey to the other end ot the diocese, where the bishop Hied. He arrlied just in time for 5 o'clock tea, a meal to hich he was a complete stranger. After tea the bishop asked him to accompany him to evensong. When they returned to the house the bishop, remarking that it was quite time they went upstairs lit a candle and showed his guest to his room. It was then just 7 o'clock, and though the old clergyman thought it was rather early to retire, still, admiring the bishop for such simple habits, he prepared for bed.

He had just put out the light and lain down to sleep, wishing he had eaten a little more tea, when a booming noise rang through the house and smote upon his ear. Quick as thought he sprung from his bed and, Bhouting "fire!" at the top of his lolce. rushed out onto the landing just in time to meet the bishop, with a lady on bis arm. going down to dinner. The sequel to the story has neier been divulged and.

as I haie said, this Is not a personal reminiscence. Ills Rncinir Friend. A certain bishop. In traveling through his diocese, had occasion to change at a wa-side junction. Whllo waiting for his train he seized the opportunity of making friends with the station master.

One of the kindest-hearted men, he was lery fond of trj-Ing to enter into the laried Interests of those with whom he came in contact. Howeier. on this occasion he did not find it easy to discoier the exact topic in which ins new-friend was Interested. So reluctantly he tell back on his particular "shop" I. the traffic.

"I suppose, with- the race meeting taking place to-day, there has been some lery heaiy traffic on jour line?" Inadiert-ently the bishop had. Indeed, touched the station master's weak point not the tralhc, but racing. So for the next quarter of an hour he listened In his kindly way to the various merits of the horses engaged in the St. Leger and their chances of success. At last, to the bishop's great relief It must be admitted, the train arrlied.

and, shaking hands with his racing friend, he got Into a carriage. He had not traieled very far, howeier, when the train having pulled up, he heard the station master's voice inquiring if the bishop of was in the train. Hastily the bishop declared his presence. Of course, his fellow passengers in the third class carriage (it was the bishop's boast that he always traveled third) were on the qui vlie to know what the station master wanted with the bishop, while quite a little knot of spectators gathered round the carriage window. Up comes the official, making a prodigious salute to the great ecclesiastical dignitary.

"I'le just received a wire, my lord, from the station master at asking me to tell jour lordship that Donovan won the Leger." The bishop's astonishment and chagrin at his friend's kindlv thought of him can be better Imagined than described, especially when he heard the titter from those assembled on the platform, and noticed the increased interest with which he was regarded b- his companions Tor the rest of the Journey. It Is said that his lordship Is now more warv as to the subject he touches upon in talking to casual acquaintances. INDEPENDENCE. Albert Mnthcrrs Prefers Life in the Comity Jnll to Ills Liberty.
