Newspaper Page TextTHE COR V ALUS GAZETTE, FRIDAY, MARCH 13, 1891. Highest of ali in Leavening Power. ABSOIiTEl PURE WOMAN OF CAPRI. Their Gentle and Affectionate Disposition Accustomed to Laborious Work. The native inhabitants of Capri, an we see them to-day, are a simple and a gentle people. When irritated or aroused, the fierce anger and jealousy of the Italian character will sometimes show themselves, but their usual atti tude is that of admiring wonder and patient subservience toward the well dressed strangers who have chosen to make the island their home. Capri is in some degree one of the "Happy Is lands." All classes of society are re presented, but there is a mingling of ranks and grades that seems strange to the dwellers in large cities. The island has no native aristocracy, the people belonging nearly all to the peas ant or shopkeeping class. But there have been marriages by which the peasant maids of Capri are entitled to rank themselves among ladies of birth and station. One of the handsomest private residences on the island boasts of a prince for its master, and the fair lady that he has made his wife is the daughter of an employe of the tele graph company, which, by means of optical signals, enables the inhabitants of Capri to communicate, in the ease of an emergency, with the main-land. Artists have frequently been drawn into the toils of matrimony by the soft glances of their fair models. A beau tiful villa, built in Pompeiian style, and not fitr from the Grand Marina, is ruled over by a Caprian girl, wife of the cel ebrated artist, Cherubino, of Rome. Here and there about the island new and handsome villas appear, and one and another is pointed out to the stranger as the house where a German or an Italian or an English signore dwells with his Caprian wife. , There is very little of mystery in these marriages when one comes to know well these fair Caprian girls. They have the rich beauty of the South, the soft, lustrious eyes and glowing color, and languor and the swaying grace. .At the same time, their con stant journeys over the mountain roads of their native island at the heels of their patient donkeys make them lithe and strong. They are quick and ap preciative, and it requires little imag ination to realize that a world-wearied man might find it sweet to make his home on this fair island, with one of these gentle girls to share his life. There seems to be no evidence to show that any of these marriages have re sulted unhappily or brought disap pointment in their train. Nearly all the laborious work,' such as is performed by men elsewhere, is done, at Capri by women. The men are on the sea as marinari or fishermen, or they have been conscripted into the jtalian armv. Women are the masons and the builders, the farmers, and in some instances the mechanics. It seems strange to anAmerican from the land of machinery to observe the awk ward and primitive fashion in which work of all kinds is done here. Fields are cultivated and houses are built with implements such as were familiar to our grandfathers, but of which we have almost forgotten the use. The houses of Capri, constructed now of the same material and in the same manner as were the dwellings of buried Pompeii in the first century of the Christian era. are built of stone and plaster. Rough stones are piled to gether after the manner in which farm ers build fences to divide their fields iu our country, and which is also common here. The crevices are tilled, in with sand and coarse cement, over which is laid plaster, and thus the walls and arched roofs of the dwellings the former sometimes two to three feet in thickness are constructed. Kveiy part of the work is done in the most primi tive and laborious man ner. The earth, for instance, that is dug from the pro posed siteof some new wall isscratched with a rude hoe, gathered up by the hands, and thrown into a basket, which, when tilled. Is carried away upon the head. All this will be done by women, assisted occasionally by some youth who h:s escaped conscription through Hieiit.i. or physical incapacity, or ly a graybeard too old for military sr-rvice and unfit for life upon the sea." All the stone from the quarries upon the mountain-side is carried to the building site upon the head, and we have frequently seen girl children of not more t.ian ten years carrying in this way stones that must have weighed twenty to thirty pounds. The head is protected by a coarse turban, upon which the load is mounted. The Capriatis seem to have no idea that anything can be carr.ed any distance in the hand. Mary E. Vandyiie, in Harper's Magazine. When to Use the Finders. There are a number of edibles that the most fashionable and well-bred people now eat at the dinner table with their fingers. They are: Olives, tJ which a fork should never be applied. Asparagus, whether hot or cold, when served whole, as it should be. ' Lettuce, which should be dipped in the dressing or in a little salt. Celery, which may properly be placed on the tablecloth, beside the plate. Strawberries, when served with the stem on, as they usually are in the inost elegant houses. Bread, toast and all tarts and small cakes. Fruit of all kinds, except melons and preserves, which are eaten with a spoon. Cheese, which is almost invariably eaten with the fingers by the most par ticular people. Even the leg or other small piece of a bird is taken in the fingers at fash ionable dinners, and at most of the luncheons ladies pick small pieces of chicken Avithout using a fork, U. S. Gov't Report, Aug. 17, 1889. Powder OLD CREOLE CUSTOMS. New Orleans Society Stl'l Honors the Traditions of the Old Regime. The social customs of New Orleans differ widely from those of any other city of the union, derived as they large ly are from the usages and precedents of the French and Spanish regime, many of which hold good to-day. The old French social law, which divided people into three classes the aristo crat, the bourgeois, and the canaille has to a great extent become a dead I letter. j The middle class is to-day an unim- ; portant factor in society here. One misses also that subdivision into cliques and sets which exists elsewhere. In a social sense New Orleans is virtually a dual city, the dividing line being Canal street,its principal thoroughfare. Above this dwell the Americans, who now predominate "in the population. Below it live the Creoles, the descend ants of haughty cavaliers and beau ties who formed the courts of the French and Spanish governors of the provinces, and who still hold sacred the stately manners, the stringent cus toms, and the prejudices of their ances tors. They, however, have for the greater part suffered reverses of for tune. This prevents their active par ticipation in society or the lavish mode of entertainment to which they were accustomed. It has not deprived them, however; of a certain influence over the social tone of the city, and in no respect is this more readily manifest than in the universal observance of the chaperon system. This system is closely ad hered to as well in American as in Cre ole circles, and the penalty of its dis regard is scandal and gossip, and per haps, if the offense be sufficiently seri- i ous, social ostracism. Young ladies do not attend the the atre with a gentleman without a chap eron, especially at night, unless they be nearly related or betrothed. Under no circumstances is it possible for a young girl to lunch or dine in a public restaurant unless a chap eron be present, and few New Orleans girls would enter such a place except to attend a lunch or dinner party to which a number of guests were bidden and where one or more chaperons were present. As regards horseback exercise, in which New Orleans girls indulge but rarely, the rule requiring a chaperon is much less rigidly enforced, but upon driving without the matronly protec tion there is virtually an absolute pro hibition. Social calls are for the most part con fined to Sunday evening, when gentle men present themselves as early as 7 o'clock, and are expected to withdraw not later thau 11 o'clock, good breed ing, of course, requiringthe first comer to yield to his successor. Formal calls are paid onty on Sunday oron the even ing of the hostess' special reception days, and do not here much exceed half an hour. In creole circles the mother of the young lady receiving the caller is in variably present, but among Ameri cans the custom is observed only ac cording to the degree of intimacy be tween the parties. Excursions, pic nic, etc., form no part of the social en tertainments of New Orleans, though occasionally parties are formed to visit the neighboring plantations when the cane is being converted into sugar. In such cases the host makes a point of providing at least one, and often sev eral, chaperons. Invitations to balls, ' parties, or receptions arc; always word ed to include the chaperon, and sul scribers to the club, germau, or cotil- : lion, of which at least one is given during the season, are furnished with separate cards for the chaperons and partners. In matters of courtship and marriage the Creoles follow the French plan and the maternal supervision ends only j with signing of the nuptial registry. Among the American portion of the population the American custom pre vails, and the moment an acquaintance merges himself into a suitor he is ac corded greater freedom of communi cation. A Ijittle Previous. A couple from across the border came to the city estrnhty and stopped atone of the he-d ho: ids. The young lady was plainly hut neatly dressed and was a hundw.me hninette. The young man stepped up to the clerk af ten having escorted the lady to the par lor, and asked whore he could find a minister, as he wanted to get 'ppjiced." .Upon being infoi nied, the clerk hand ed him the pen to register. 1 don't want to register now," said the young man: "wait until after we get married, then 1 can write it Mr. and Mrs. ." "That don't make any difference," said the clerk, "as long as you are go ing to get married." The youthful swain stepped up to the desk, took the peri, looked it over carefu"y, and then at the register. His face grew red, and he hesitatingly in scribed "Joseph Link" upon one line, and upon the next, "Mrs. Lottie Link, all of Scranton." ' "I wonder what she would say if she knew it," he said in an awe-struck voice, aud then buried out iu search of a clergyman. The inscription was soon legalized. Bingluanloa licpubliuin. When Professor K- reached the rostrum for prayers he found his watch about two minutes slower, and himself as much later than he expected. Look ing at his watch, he exclaimed, "I shall have no faith in my watch after this!" "It is notlaith, but works, you need," was the quick response of Pro fessor J . Harper's Magazine. Literature Neap tlie Pole. What do we do with so many old papers? Send them up to the Arctic ocean." It was the proprietor of an outfitting store on Pacific street and he was an swering the inquiry of the reporter as to what he wanted" with 5,000 old pic torial and story-papers for which ho had advertised in the Examiner. j "To the Arctic ocean! And what do you do with them there.'' "We send them up to the sailors on whaling vessels. About 300 sailors, engaged through us, are up there over half the year, and to each one of these we send at least fifteen papers every season. They are glad to get most anything in the shape of a paper, but most of the men like magazines better than anything else.'' "Do you depend entirely on the an swers to your advertisements for J'our stock of papers?" "No; we go to each one of the news papers in this city, both weekly and daily, and get back numbers. And then we send to each of the s lilors a few of the current issues of the city papers. These papers came here in answe r to our advertisement," and l.e put his hand on a stack tl-.ree feet h Some of the numbers date back c;g;:t or nine years. "Here is another stack of papers," and he pointed to a heap of papers two feet tall, "that is ready to be as sorted and done up ill bundles, one for each ship." "Those letters, do they a!so go?" A long box full of yellow envelopes, each with a superscription to somebody on -oiiie whaleship, "Arctic Ocean," lay !.cs d the papers. Yes, we send each year one letter to eacn man. Of course the- like to know wi;at is going on here, and we write a g eneral account of matters of interest and personal gossip, and whatever we ;hink the men would like to know." 'You don't write a different individ ual letter to each man, do you?" "Oil. no. We bunch them as much as possible, and make the same letter in duplicate do for several men. These letters are all ready to be sent up next week on t:ie liuar, but it wiil be about a month before tne papers and letters are all fixed up and started off. The men exchange their papers and letters, so Ihat what we send keeps the entire fleet in reading matter through the season." Sail Frniir.ixco Ex. iminar. It is s;iid that German people have little faith in lawyers. Recently a Ger man living in the vicinity of Cape Vin cent entered the olliee of a prominent attorney there and stated that he had been sued for slander. The case loos ed hard against him, he thought, and so he said to his lawyer: "Veil, vhat I tinks alioud it is dot we ml petter py up doi udder lawyer." Hut the other lawyer wouldn't sell his client out and the Germau finally settled. LIFE OF GMSHEPMN! By Gen. Howard and Fletcher Johnson. The last of the great war h--rot-s.
