J. GATES, 2102 K (Continued from Iunt wwkl Mayence, at the bead of deep water naviKUtion, 1h the center of the wine induxtry on the middle Rhine. It hag a population of 115,000 people and Its hiatory, dating back more than 2,0uo yeura. This place haa much interest to the touritttg and from it a visit can eaxily be made to Weinbaden and Frankfort, both of which are Interest Ihk cities. In going from Mayence to Hi-idle- burg one passes through some inter esting country with much market gar dening which is mostly done by wom en. whi work cows and oxen or a horse ind cow, etc. A part of the way Is through wild, weird and some dense forests. Heldleburg has 50.000 people. It lies on both sides of the River Nekar, and two miles from its junction with the Rhine. The Church of the Holy Ghost, dat ing back to 1400, is an interesting structure, and in it the Reformation begun by preaching and administer ing Sacrament in both kinds, but in course or time a bitter strife arose between the two factions and a wall was built through, dividing the church in the center, the Roman Catholics using the choir and the Protestants the nave. The wall has been removed and replaced several times, and the last time it wag rebuilt was In 1893 Thus the lion and the lamb lie down together in peace' and worship God with a wall between them. Heldleburg Castle Is one of the largest and finest ruins in Germany If not in Kurope. It Is located on a high hill overlooking the city, rivers valleys and forests, and from it one can see in the distance the Harz Moun tains, while further away the dim out line of the Vosges appears. Heldleburg Cattle. The castle was built in the thirteenth century, of red or brown stone, and Its many statues and ornamental carv ings makes It very beautiful. The old well. 25 feet In circumferance and nearly 100 feet deep, has the same careful workmanship: every stone Is dressed and perfectly curved and fit so closely that one can hardly discern where one is Joined to the other. Much of the castle was used as prison, and as I wander from one dark cell to an other and look out through small Iron grates secured in strong, thick walls, my mind drifts back to olden times, when prisoners sat around on the bare cold rock floor and thinking, mother, dear, of you, and the bright and happy home so far away." There is a beau tiful porch connected with the castle with ortly winding walks and paths and enclosed by a high stone wall. Strassburg, dating back 15oo years before America was discovered, has a population of 150,0im, and is the cap itol of Alsace and Ixraine, and is one of the best fortified cities in Kurope. It is surrounded by fourteen forts with a garrison of 15.000 men, the beautiful country surrounding is mostly taken up with market gardening. There is a building covering several acres of ground where the markets are held two days in each week, and It was my pleasure to attend one of them, and it was Interesting to see the peasants coming in from the dif ferent districts, each one in his own peculiar dress and mode of convey ance, which consisted of wagons and carts drawn by cows, oxen, a horse world. Its quaint stone and brick buildings are of much interest. The Cruciform Church, built In the fifteenth century is 4i)0 feet in length and Its interior is beautiful, and contains one of the largest ilpe organs in the world, having nearly 5,ikm pipes. In going to Cologne we passed through a beautiful country all the way. This art of Germany lies in a higher altitude and the land Is used more for agriculture, etc. Cologne Is one of the attractive cities of Ger many. sltiKited on the River Rhine, and has a population of 40ohm. It lies In a semi-circle with a broad boule vard beautified with various kinds of trees, shrubs and flowers encircling It. The Cologne Cathedral. The Cologne "Cathedral is the larg est and most costly building of its kind in Germany. The tower Is more than 50(1 feet high and one may ascend nearly to Its top by means of steps. The decorated windows are exception ally fine. Its large bell, made from 22 French cannons, weighs 2t! tons, and its mellow tone is most beautiful and may be heard for many miles. Cologne dates back more than 2.000 years, and much of the old Roman wall and some of the massive towers may be seen. The Pontoon bridge, across the river, Is composed of lit! steel boats and has been used for general traffic for many years. The railroad bridge Is one of more than ordinary notice. It Is so wide that It carries five railway and two street car tracks, hesldes two passageways each 12 feet, for footmen. We are now sailing up the winding River Rhine with Its picturesque scenery all around and our next stop was made at Ronigs- wlnter, or Seven Mountains. This is a pretty summer resort, and two miles away, on the top of the nearest moun tain, rests the old ruins of the Drach enfels Castle, and from it one Is able to see many miles up and down the river. The Seven Mountains are most ly covered with woods of different kinds, with winding roads nnd drive- ed a haven which is far away from their nativity, and it is interesting to ways leading to and past many beauti ful mansions, hotels, etc. Coblenze is 110 miles from Cologne. and in going that distance we passed many quaint old villages and towns, with' vine-clad hills with beautiful country seats, castles and old castle ruins crowning the higher and more rocky ones. Coblenze Is at the Junc tion of the Moselle and Rhine Rivers, and one of the grtiitest wine centers in Germany, and is much noted fur its fine Moselle wines. Near the city Is the Stolzenfels Castle, built In the twelfth century. In going from Co blenze to Illngen one passes through a very rough country with hills and low mountains on each side of the river, with cnsfle crownings nnd old ruins. some or which were neatly ouscurert by vine and foliage, anil sloping back from the river the rock terraces con tain thousands of acres of vlnyards. Illngen Is a quiet, quaint little city or eight or ten thousand people. It lies at the Junction of the Rivers Rhine and Nuke, and across the latter there Is a stone bridge built by the Romans 13 years H. C, and has been In con stant use since that time. Tbf people have their peculiar dress and habits, which adds interest to "Fair liingen-on-the-Rhlne." Uusy Klopp, which is situated on a knoll near the renter of the town, wag erected on the enclosing walls of a Roman fort and from it one can get a magnificent view. The Par ish church was built nearly luoo years before America was discovered, and ts of much Interest. As we go up the on one Side of their person from head to foot, and on the other side they wear black; then another will tine some other colors, and so on, and in all it makes quite an interesting spec tacle. The Queen's Palace is large and handsomely finished and the large structure rests on 14,M0 piles. Here, as In other Holland cities, the castes of the ladies are designated on the streets by the rich ones wearing a gold cap with a thin lace over it on her head; the next in wealth wears the silver cap, and the poor, by the clumsy wooden shoes on their feet. A trip to Amsterdam would not be complete without making some neigh boring excursions and visiting some of the so-called dead cities around Zuiderzee. Consequently, our next place of Interest was at Marken, a fishing village of nearly l.Sou people, located on a low, flat island Beveral miles square, bounded by the Zuiderzee and the North Sea. The people are of that same peculiar dress and habits of the old Dutch Hollanders of long ago. They all wear the clumsy wood en shoes. The men and boys, with pants legs larger than the hobble skirt. The women and girls with skirts pro portionally as large, with waists like Joseph's coat of many colors, and each one with a curly lock hanging down in front of their ears, and with a white cap on with ioint8 that curl up toward the ear. The people are extremely clean and clever. The sole occupation of the men Is fishing, while the women and girls do much lace work and knitting. but few of them ever leave the island and they seem contented and happy. They are all followers of Calvin and they attend church in the same old edifice in which he used to preach. They have two schools, one of which is a bible school. From here we went to Volendam. Volendam. This town hat nearly 3,000 people who are also fishermen, and have a large cannery, and every day one will see hundreds of their fishing smack in the cove near the tow-n. Their gaily colored houses, with their peculiar costumes and man ners are intensely interesting. Edam has a population of 3.''0 and they have some very picturesque old houses. Here Is established lame dry ers and smokers, and the herring are sent there for that purose from many places. They have . fifteenth century church that has considerable interest. Edam is famous for Its cheese making, and while here we visited one of the factories. Here they keep their cows, their feed, make the cheese, and themselves reside all under one roof. and everything is neat and clean, and In a perfectly sanitary condition. In the summer time, however, the milk ing is done in the pastures, near a canal and the milk taken in boats to the factory. At Monikondam, another quaint old place, with its many Dutch peculiarities, we went on board a canal boat, and for twenty miles or more passed through a land of green pas tures with thousands of head of the fine Holsteln cattle and saw the old Dutch windmills pumping water from the drain ditches and running it into the canals, which are in many places two and twenty feet higher than the pasture land on each side of it.
