TO BREAK A DROUGHT.
Picturesque Procession in Balkan
Sousing a Stranger.
The tricks are many and varioi
by which members of the human rai
have tried to bring rain in time <
drought. There is a village in Russi
for instance, where the men used *
climb certain fir trees in season <
drought, one of the three having
vessel of water which he wou
sprinkle all around, says the Londc
News. v
One of the two others hammen
on a kettle or made some simili
noise in the hope of thereby produ
ing thunder, and the third scatter*
sparks from fire-brands as a warnir
to the lightning to make haste. T1
Golden Bough gives a host of i:
nf similar nnromnnip? as thf
OlaUV/CO VI Oiuttiu;l vv* vuavm.w ? ? ?
have been observed in different par
of the world.
In Roumania, Servia and oth<
countries the charm for rain is mo:
picturesque. Here a troop of girl
the leader of whom is naked, sa^
for a covering of leaves, herbs ar
flowers, goes in procession from hou:
to house singing for rain the hous
to house through the village, and i
they pass singing for rain the hous
holders drench them with buckets <
water. "The ceremony," says D
Frazer, "regularly takes place a
over Roumania on the third Tuesdi
after Easter, but it may be expect*
at any time of drought during tl
summer."
There is yet anther wetting Ro
manian-custom described in the Gol
en Bough. Sometimes when rain
needed, we are told, the Roumaniai
"make a clay figure to represe:
drought, cover it with a pall ai
place it an open coffin. Girls crou<
round the coffin and lament, sayin
'Drought is dead! Lord, give 1
rain!' Then the coffin is carried 1
children in funeral procession wi
a burning wax candle before it, whi
lamentations fill the air. Final
they throw the coffin and the cand
into a stream or well."
In unspoiled parts of Russia tl
popular methods of influencing tl
weather are less funereal. Sometime
for instance, Dr. Frazer tells us, "a
ter service in church the priest
his robes has been thrown down <
the ground and drenched with wat
by his parishioners. * * * In Kursk,
province of Southern Russia, wh<
rain is much wanted the women sei
a passing stranger and throw him i
to the river or souse him from hej
to foot."
If you are going to spend your ho
days in Southern Russia it is as w<
that you should know this. Otherwi
you might come away with the total
false impression that strangers a
unpopular in those parts.
SOME PIONEER MAKESHIFTS
Town of Kansas City was Survey*
with a Grapevine.
When the town of Kansas Ci
was first laid off in lots in 1839 1
J. C. McCoy he did the measurii
with a grapevine a rod in length. I
used that because he had no chai
There was not a chain West of ?
Louis that was fit for surveying wit
The grapevine, pliable and light
^weight, served the purpose quite
well as a chain would have done.
The pioneers of Kansas City ai
vicinity had to use many makeshil
for they were far from civilizati*
and a source of supplies for evi
the common necessities of life.
'i nere is a woman in ivansas
to-day who came to Westport in tl
fifties, and later went with her hu
band to Baptist Wea Mission ne
Paola, Kans. She recalls many
the curious makeshifts of those da
which she personally used.
Among them was an ear of co:
which was used as a substitute for
rolling pin. It was crude, but
fective.
"We were young and full of ho]

was like a party eterually campii
out. We enjoyed it all."
This woman remembers that tl
first summer snent in Kansas it W
necessary to wait until the prair
hay crop was harvested before "fi
ing" could be obtained for the ma
tresses, and that they slept on blan
ets. But they slept well in tho
pioneer days.
She recalls also that when mi
infested their cabin, they had i
mouse trap, and it was 45 miles
Westport. A simple substitute w
devised with the aid of a thimb
placed under the rim of the sauce
small end down, with bait attache
and no mouse was the wiser.
A hopper filled with wood ashe

CONGRESS GETTING BUSY.
>s. Pre-Holiday Activity in Both of the
Chambers at Washington.
1S Washington, Dec. 18.?A sharp dice
vision of sentiment among Senators
regarding service pension legislation,
a? protests against large congressional
expenditures, the Russian treaty
question, continued investigation,
a and enactment of the urgent defici^
ency bill into law, will keep congress
>n busy this week. Both houses will
adjourn on Thursday until January
^ 3 Plans are going forward for what
ar promises to prove a congestion of
c~ legislation after the recess.
The Sherwood so-called "dollar-alg
day" pension bill, which the house
ie has passed, probably will not find an
Q~ easy way in the senate. Senator
Gore, of Oklahoma, a leading Demo
cratic member of the pensions committee,
already has started an inquiry
2r into the possibility of postponing acre
tion until the next session, when
s' there will be no presidential election.
:e In the house proceedings on the
l(* Sherwood bill, the effect upon either
56 party of marked liberality to the
e" Mexican and civil war veterans, ag1S
gregating possibly $75,000,000 ule"
timately, was a conspicuous factor
and Senator Gore contends that the
,r* subject will not be so popular in
congress after the presidential eleciy
tion.
Senator McCumber, chairman of
ie the pension committee, while not
committing himself to the Sherwooo
u" bill, expressed the opinion that some
general pension legislation would be
18 enacted during this session of con118
gress.
Qt "We should do now what we are
1(* going to do regardless of politics,"
he said. He thinks congressional action
should depend on the state of
as the treasury and has taken steps to
3y ascertain that and to determine what
^ various plans of legislation might
*e. cost. Secretary of the Interior Fisher
is investigating the cost.
*e The house democrats will caucus
. on a number of pending questions,
probably soon after the recess. The
leaders contend that the economy
program must be maintained, that
some of the Democrats on the com111
mittee's list for appropriations must
)n be refused,-but in such a way as to
er avoid party dissension.
a The pension bill already passed by
311 the house, carrying from $70,000,000
ze to $75,000,000; the demand of the
n" public buildings committee for an
l<* omnibus measure to carry between
$25,000,000 and $30,000,000, and
other larger drafts on the treasury
have complicated the situation.
se Democratic Leader Underwood inly
sists that the public buildings bill
re shall not be put through. The work
of the investigating committees is
also piling up expense accounts.
The tariff board's report is expected
ed from the president this week,
but the ways and means committee
probably will not recommend action
ty until after the recess, but will then
by proceed vigorously,
ig The Democrats were not agreed
le last summer as to the raw wool tariff
n. many favoring free raw wool. This
jt. que&tion, trust legislation and other
h. things will be considered in caucus,
in The proposed plan to open the cauas
cus to the public has developed
strenuous opposition from those Demid
ocrats who believe pary differences
ts should be settled behind closed
3n doors.
3n AH the witneses who will be
heard in the defence of Senator Lority
mer, except Mr. Lorimer himself,
he will appear before the senate comlS.
mittee this week, and the committee
ar will then adjourn to meet after the
of Christmas recess. Senator Lorimer
ys will testify under oath for the first
time.
rn The Steel Trust investigating
a committee of the house and the sen}f
ate committee on inter-State commerce,
which is investigating trust
pe problems, will be in session this
to week.
There are 798 species of roses

k- was born in Westport 71 years ago,

I have seen in the log cabins of the
ce very earliest settlers. A stout post
tio was let through an opening in the
to puncheon floor about six or seven
as feet from the corner vails; holes

FIENDS FIRE INTO HOUSE.
Two Negroes Accused of Shooting Up
Farmer's Dwelling.
Two negroes giving their names
as Trapp and Johnson were lodged
in Winnsboro jail on charges of
shooting into the house of Mr. Kohn,
a prominent farmer of the lower section
of the county. The negroes will
be given a preliminary hearing in a
few days. It is alleged that the
prisoners fired through the window
of the house. While none of the
shots struck anybody, Mrs.Kohn and
her infant child had a narrow escape.
The men are charged with assault
and battery with intent to kill.
