Switzerland e.nd the Rhine.
Oar party of seven left Arnhem at
8:30 one cool, cloudy morning, in a
vestibule train and, after a ride along
tbe historic Rhine by way of Strassbarg,
we reached Basel at 8:30, in time fur a
very late dinner, oar hotel being pleas
antly located in tbe vicinity of the
depot. Next morning we made a tour
of Basel (105.000 inh.) the view of the
Itbine with the various bridges across
it, being worth remembering. Leaving
Basel after lunch, the weather being
perfect, we had a delightful ride by
rail, thro' the Hardt Mts. and, long ere
we reached the beautiful city of Geneva
we had a fine view of Ml. Blanc, 16,000
feet high (the loftiest peak of all Europe)
and ol Lake Genera, with water of an
exquisitely blue color. Geneva (110,-
000 inh) at ti9 western extremity ol
Lake Geneva and also built on both
sides of the River Rhone, reminds one of
Paris and the Seine being connected by
numerous bridges, which give to tbe
city a very picturesque appearance,
Geneva dates back to tbe period ol
Rome's greatest power. For centuries it
was under Roman protection, became an
independent city in 1520, was annexed
to France by Napoleon in 1798, and
after the fall of his empire it became the
22ad Canton of the Swiss Confederation
Geneva was the home of Jean Calvin
the noted reformer, from 1536 to 1564
and duiing that time the city became
the reluge for persecuted proles tan Is of
every nation, especially the French. It
is noted for its watches and Jewelry, aud
beautiful are the exhibits of these articles
in the stores.
Tbe Cathedral of St. Peter is one of the
many places wj visited. It contains
haudxome mausoleum w ith the remains
of Duke Henri de Rohan who was
leader of the proteatauts in tba 17th
century. The Anuria Museum, situated
in beautiiul grounds outside the city.
and commanding a magnificent viow of
lhe Lake and Ml. Blanc, is a royal gift
of its founder, Ouslave Revilliod, to the
city, and contains a collection of paint
ings, sculptures, ivories, coins, porcelain
and gold and silver ornaments. We
spent two d.iy s in Geneva and left on one
of the Lake steamers, touching at vari
ous points, and after a trip of 45 miles,
arrived at Muntreux, entbu.jia-itic over
the beauties of Lake Geneva. Montreux
is a fatuous health resort In winter, has
numerous hotels, many of which have
handsome gardens of flowers, palms,
eti. and has to the east snow-capped
mountains not many miles distant. The
place of greatest historical interest is
the castle of Chillon, built on a rocky
isle near the lake shore. Here we were
shown to the prison where "The Pris
oner ol Chillou", named fioonivard was
chained to one of tho atone pillars for
four years, in almost total darkness.
The name of Bryon, who wroto the
above mentioned poem, is engraved
(by himself) on one of the pillars.
fionuivard, poet and free-thinker, wa
imprisoned for taking sides with reform
ers and was finally rescued by the
Bernese army. The views in Muntreux
of lako, mountains and eloping hill
sides, the last name! covered with vine
yards, have left on uiy mind the im
pression of peaceful beauty. From here
we went by rail thro' Lausanne and
Berne to Thtin and by water oyer Lake
Thun to Inturlakun. Not leso than 30
hotel busses awaited the arrival of the
steamer, and we soon learned that
Interlaken is principally composed ol
hotels and stores, the latter filled with
all manner of Swiss curios and souvenirs-
the vicinity aro the following snow
capped Bernese Alp, Jungfiau, Monch,
Kiger, Melterhorn, Schreckhorn, and
several others, all from 12 00 to 14000
feet high, aud each having one or nioie
glaciuis. The day afler our arrival at
nterlaken was to bo the finest of our
trip, from a scenic point of view, but it
rained in tho morning, afternoon and
evening, Thii was a disappointment, but
the redeeming feature of the day was our
limb on the Kiger Glacier during the
three hours of good weather iu the early
afternoon. We secured a guide who
tied us together in the customary fash
ion, and supplied with ice-pick, aud
alpen stocks, we started across a field of
ice from 10 to 50 feel deep, miles wide,
and losing itself upward in the everlast-
ug snows, It was slow work, skirting
crevasses 10 to 40 feet deep, tbe ice of a
peculiar blue color, but intensely in
teresting. The guide frequently cut
nto the ice to give us a firm footing and
even then, in turn, each of us, measured
half or lull length on the ice. We
amused ouiselves in spare moments by
rolhug pieces of rock down the glacier
and enjoying the giant leaps they made
wheu under good headway. Ai times,
when we halted, some one would l e

that course down the sides of the glacier,

wasn't slways possible to get out of tbe
welt consequently wet d el (butjnol cold
fee') were III" order of the day. There
were two ladies in tbe glacier iiarty and
we all enjoyed the novelty of tbe trip.
Our other day at Interlaken was spent
visiting tbe Staubach and Trummelbach
fal s. the day being fine, and tbe views
of tbe vertical mountains 1030 feet high
with snow peaks beyond, were grand
Tbe S'.aubach falls nearly 1OJ0 feet and
might well be named Bridal Veil Falls
The Trummelbach is within a narrow
cleft of rock and tbe lower falls shoot
out of the solid rock a stream two feet
in diameter, a most interesting freak of
nature. From Interlaken our route was
over Lake Briens and thence by rail to
Lucerne 28000 inh. situated at one end
of the Lake of the four Cantons (Vier-
waldetalter-see). After getting lunch at
tbe Hotel de 1' Europe we started on tbe
trip to tbe far-famed Right. Changing
to the inclined railway at Artb Uoldau
lhe ascent began, thro' woods, along
ravines, skirting precipices. Onward
and upward we went, 1000 feet, 2000,
3000, and finally at the end of i boure
we reached the top, 4000 feet above tbe
Lake and 6000 feet above tea-level. To
describe the scene is no easy task. Be
low us lay the Lake of the four Cantons,
yonder we saw Lucerne' that we left a
few hours earlier, and villages, towns
and cities along tbe lake shores Over
ono part of the lake lung a curtain of
clouds, while tbe sun, breaking thro'
tbe higher clouds sent its gleams of light
on those below. Steamers plying on
the lake, were as toys, while row boats
were not discernible.
The great light at tbe Rigi-Kulm is a
sun-rise. At fi:15 next morning we
were awakened by the melodious strains
of an Alpen-horn and we hastened to the
obseivation tower te await the sunrise.
Mountain peaks were to be seen at all
points of the compass. Above the east
ern horizon were a few clouds, lighted
by the suu, as yet invisible. Soon the
sun sent its rays thro these clouds,
lighting up a peak here, and there and a
few minutes later it shown in a clear
sky, imparting to the snow capped
Bernese Alps its warmth of color. As
weetood there and drank iu the beauties
of the scene, we appreciated the fact
that our highest hopes for good weather
on Mt Kighi were being realized. Tbe
time passed quickly and alter a very
few minutes which we allowed ourselves
for breakfast, we were descending tbe
other side of the mountain and enjoying
tbe changing scenes as we neared and
reached the level ol.ihe lake at Vilznau.
Here we took tbe steamer to the Tells
Kapelle built in memory of that noble
character in Swiss history, William
Tell. From there we walked along the
Axtenstrasse to Fluelen, the road skirt
ing the lake built from 100 to 200 feet
above it most ol the distance. Return-
rig we went by steamer to Lucerne,
one of the most charming citieB of
Switzerland. The view from my room.
of the Righi. Pilatus. Stanscrhorn. and
Burgerstock Mts. towering above tbe
lake with steamers plying back and
forth, and the morning sun lighting
the mountain tops, is one 1 shall long
remember.
The Lion of Lucerne is one of the
pi incipal points of interest in the city.
Carved out of the solid rock of a vertical
cliff in a small park, stands this monu
ment in memory of a Swiss regiment
massacred in the Tullenes, Paris, in
1702, during the French Revolution.
The model of this masterpiece of sculp
ture was made by Thorvaldsen. The
Lion is over 25 feet long.
From Lucerne we went by rail to
Zurich, the largest city ol Switzerland,
having 150,000 inh. and beautifully
suuaieu on iiae iuricii. Here we
spent two da; s pleasantly, driving and
riding in and about tho city, making a
tour of the lake by steamer, visiting the
Zuricbberg and other points of interest,
and attending a good concert at the
Tonhalle. The next day we had a long
ride by rail from Zurich to Frankfort
(8,'y'lioure) through the Scbwarzwald,
past the Falls of the Rhine si Srliafl hau
sen otc, and very pretty, but not a rival
for much scenery I nassed In the
United States on my way East. Frank
fort on tbe Main, is a city of 200 000 lull
of business and containing much wealth.
Our slay there was short, but we suc
ceeded in seeing the old part of lhe city,
and visiting the Palm-garden, whore a
line orchestral concert was in progress.
Tbe last day I spent on the Rhine,
the Ucruian Rhine, the river, whoae
praii-es have been sung the world
around. And deservedly so. for. when
we consider the historic interest which
clings to the castles and ruins ou its
rugged banks, and add to this the
natural beauties of the river from Bingen
to Bonn, it stands unrivallud in the
world.
Arriving iu Cologne at 5 p. in. I had
ust anllicient time to see the Djiii, the
Cathedral of Cologne, which with tt
magnificent towers and beautiful stained
glass windows, is an awe-inspiring
structure.
Thus ended my trip to Switzerland
and the Rhine, two weeks spent in view
ing some of natures handiwork, and the
memories of IhU tour are of the most
pleasant. Oko. P. Chamkb

A Bpecial correspondent ol tbe New
York Herald gives the following account
ol the newsmatter which the telegraph
companies were called upon to handle
in Buffalo in connection with the aesas
sination ol President McKinley, and the
way in which it was bandied : "Mot less
than 060,000 words were sent out ol
Buffalo in ono day by the telegraph com
panies in Bpecial dispatches in newspa
pers all over the world. These 650,000
words filled nearly five hundred columns.
If one newspaper bad received all tbe
Bpecial reports sent out it would have
hsd about eighty lnolid pages of matter
concerning the President exclusive of
illustrations and headlines. From all
available parts of tbe country addi
tional operators have been rushed to
Buffalo. About one hundred aud sev
enty-five operators have been at work
constantly for the last forty-eight hourt
and there is no sign ol diminution ol
tLe volume of business. Nearly every
newspaper of Importance in the United
States and several ol those published in
loreign countries, have staff reporters in
Buffalo, all of whom have been for nearly
twenty-four hours a day keenly seeking
every fact of interest in connection with
the President's assassination. It la s
conservative estimate tosay that not less
than seventy five newspaper men from
other citiesjwere in Buffalo working on
the story of the shooting ol the President.
Many of tbe newspapers had from two
to half-a-dosen staff reporters on the
ground.
