My original purpose in ishing Austrian Poland was to inspect, at the invitation of a iriend, the new petroleum fields of North eastern Austria, and incidentally to study the Galician lowly. On first reaching Cracow a hasty trip by rail to Kolomea, in the southeastern corner of Galicia, a half day's walk irom the frontier of barbario Bessarabia, demonstrated that there was nothing of very great interest to write of these industrial developments. An oil belt 300 miles in length and about 25 miles wide extends southeast from near Sanot, in Galicia, along the Carpathian range of mountains. It then passes between Bukovina and Hungary, and thence breaks away into the Roumanian oil fields in de tached spurs of the Carpathians. It is per haps 1,000 miles in length, and altogether forms what is known in the geography of petroleum as the "Galician deposits" and territory of the "Austro-Eoumanian re fineries" Until 18S1 the operations trere of the mot primitive character, consisting almost exclusively of "hand digging" and the "free fall" svstems of sinking wells. At the date named the Canadian system of "pole tool drilling" was introduced, and rapid de velopment, backed bv English capital and operated bv Galician Polish companies, re sulted. All the hteam powor machinery is imported irom .nglana. .Engineers and superintendents have been brought from the Canadian oil fields, and the tools, formerly supplied from Hanover, are no,r made in Galicia. o Sach Flov as Pennsylvania's. The flow of oil is not to be compared with that of the average Pennsj Ivania districts. It becomes most insignificant when the great Hussion wells of Baku are taken into account, yet it is a 1 airly profitable source of supply; has given employment to thou sands of Polish and Itutheman peasants, whose wages are 90 kreutzers, or 'about 36 cents per day, with a daily allowance of two sticks of cordwood for fuel; and I find the entire annual production of the Galician petroleum fields equals two-thirds ct the total consumption by all Austria. In so far as these peasant employes, who were too recently agriculturists woodsmen and mountaineers to have lost any of their hereditary customs and characteristics, gave opportunity of study of the Galician peas antry, the large groupings of" snch lowly had interest. But my researches among the peasant class were chiefly carried on upon the large estates and in the purely peasant villages. The acceptance of three invitations as guest at the homes of two noblemen and one rich gentleman farmer furnished opportu nity to know slightly the aristocratic country landlord: and to really see their hinds or laborers and house servants as they are. The latter diner in no important re spect irom the laboring peasantry of the villages, save that to me they seem even more soddenlv stupid and servile. At this time of the year the outdoor laborer still retains his winter clothing. He is a curious looking lelloir. His hair is cut either straight across his forehead, or to a spear like point upon it, and grows like a lion's mane about his shoulders and neck. Pressed 1.11. a Robinson Crusoe. His head covering is a mangy fur hood, often of squirrel skin with the tail dangling loosely upon his shoulders, or of sheep or goatskin with the fleece side next his head. A sort of greatcoat or Tobe hangs loosely from his shoulders to below his knees. This is of the skin of some animal, with the iur or hair next the body. The reversed exposed side is covered with ancient layers of grease for protection against the snow and rain. If he possesses undergarments of any sort, they are shreds of rags stuffed with " chaff and straw. He usually wears stockings of the heaviest end coarsest material, and high legged, pointed shoes of huge proportions. For not only are the precious hose protected by ropes of straw wound from above the knee to the ankle, but enough chaff and wisps of siraw participate in occupancy ot his cav ernous shoes to provide sufficient warmth. Aside from this unique garb, his beard stands out from his lace a massy, wiry chevanx-de-frise, in which enough' straw and cliafl have lodged to provide an ade quate "comforter" for his face and neck. From a dozen to a score of these peasant animals seem to be attached to every large estate. If they have quarters excep't those who arc married, who are provided with low, thatched wooden huts, squalid and filthy beyond description I was not able to find them. They are "messed" like hogs from the great house kitchen in corners of the stableE, and lie down at night among the other animals, with their straw ropes and hide coats for bedding, wherever they are able to find most congenial and comfort able stabling. Some:lilnr Very ltke Serfdom. Serfdom is not supposed to exist in this land, but I have a well-founded suspicion that something very like it is in vogue. The wages of such laborers do not ex ceed an aeragc ot 30 kreutzers per day, perhaps 12 cents, although they are glad enongn to get this. Each estate is pro vided with a steward, or overseer, who, like the Irish agent, adjusts matters so that human effort is not permitted to pro duce more than this kind ot human life is supposed to require. He has a storehonse filled with the rude requirements of these estate laborers coats, shoes, hose, belts, something that is called tobacco and snuff, caviare and vile brandy. These are issued, niter the manner of our own exquisitely devilish "truck" system with miners, with such discretion that the estate laborer is in life long debt, and is subject to the prison and lash if he attempts to escape his master and his obligation. And yet.the households sustained by this lovely adjustment of human equities and ethics are as serene and sweet as I have ever found. "Wherever my host and I inoed about the estates these white slaves first bent and kissed the hems of our great coats and then stood with bared heads in silence until we had passed. No doubt this sort of thing gives the master a grand czar-like feeling, and it is lording it cheaply besides. So, too, within the mansions where the servants are few in comparison with similar establishments in other Europeau countries, when the somewhat bettcrconditioned white slaves, because better housed and fed only, aie notetrnally grabbing at one's sleeve or coat skirts to perform this osculatorv rever ence, they are continually, when entering or leaving any apartment, or receiving an order or serving vou, ejaculating, with ducked heads, "Ichliuest die hand." tng ish Governrssrs Tor Teachers. There are no schools or colleges for the better class of girls, and at nearly all these Polish aristocratic homes I foiled' a bonne, an English governess, or both, and a French tutor. Tliey receive excellent salaries, lhe on something like terms of equality with their employers, are usually broken down gentlemen or gentlewomen with a "literary turn' like provident Mr. "Wcgg, and are the most glad and grateful people on earth when chance brings a traveler like myself from the outside world ot glowing activities among them. I do not know whether to pity them or the manual servants of the household most The live in a refined sort ot Siberia in which there Is scarcely a ray of llghtsome ness or opportunity for enjoyment, with the advantage rather on the side of the serfs be neath them: for the latter know only the dull, plodding, beastly darkness Into which 4tl i3. ther have been born. I found one woman I here, a governess, whom I know to have uucu u insmunauiB leauer ui me juiioi circle" in Berlin in 1882, while atutor'jn another establishment is an Oxford linguist, who has published a creditable book in Lon don within five years last past. Both of them begged me in God's name not to reveal their present whereabouts and condition. Outside of the great estates, the Galician peasantry in general are of two 'distinct races the Bnthenians, of Russian descent, and the Poles. Their conditions are equal, but thev have many distinct characteristics. Neither actually possesses n foot of oiL Host hold their patches of ground, or huts, when they are simply cotiers and laborers, at the will of the lord; ond rent is seldom collected in money, for ot money they have little or none. Field products are some times taken in lieu of money, but rents are usually, almost universally, collected in labor, amounting to from 80 to 100 working days in each year to each man. The aiore Manly of The Tiro. The Ruthenian is the tidier, thriftier, more manful of the two. His- dress is of coarse, hempen stuff, with his shirt hanging outside his trousers, with occasionally a Back-like coat made of the coarse, long hair of the mountain sheep. His feet aro cov ered with moccasins pointed at the toes and laced from the too to the ankle. He wears no stockings, but loosely winds his legs with cord irom his ankles half way to the knees, where it binds his baggy trousers closely. In the summer he wears a straw hat, and in the winter a Lapland hood. He is a coarse, clean man, never fat, of splen did muscular development: wiry, active, alert, and by all odds the best workman or laborer in Galicia. The Ruthenian woman has some odd Ideas of dress. The material Is usually of coarse linen. Her goD, whloh Is in reality her chemise, is open from neck to knees and is belted in loose folds about tho waist. An other curious and distinguishing article of dress is her woolen apron. She is never without this, but it is worn behind, never in front. She has no stockings or under garments, but her feet nre shod like her tins band's with pointed and laced moccasins. Her head, in winter and summer, is always bound in n gaudy handkerchiof, but she pos sesses no other article of olothing whatever, except a sheepskin coat for winter use. "What she lacks next her skin she makes up in ornamentation. I have counted more than a score of brass rings on the fingers of her two hands. Her earrings of hollow brass would hold enpugh oil to light the family fireside for an evening; and her necklace of class or imitation coral beads, coiled a half dozen times about her by no means charm ing neck, is always yards In length. A Box or Treamred Keepsakes. Often five to ten families live under one roof, but usually tho doma, or houso which the Ruthenian calls his budo, is a tiny hut of one room. All the furniture in this cots, stools, tables and chests are hand made and almost always made by the peas ant himself. There is invariably one box on which he has lavished his most loving art. It contains his keepsakes and treas ures and all his kreutzers and gulden. He never relinquishes the key to this, and not even his wife knows how little or great Is the store it contains. The Polish peasant's stove Is a square box of stone or brick, with a square hole in front and another square hole on top. As his stove is more modern than the Ruthen ian's, his food is more varied and better. He is a lover of all vegetables, and cabbage is almost a staple of food. This is varied by his harsz soup, or a vegetable soup con taining chunks of pork, and each Polish peasant is said to consume half' a ton of gorken, or cucumbers preserved with bay leaves and salt, every year. Another meal of which he is very fond is potatoes and sour milk. The latter costs but 3 kreutzers per quart, or 8 cents per gallon. He Is a slae to spirits, and the average Polish peasant consumes one gallon ot Mle Ger man schnapps every week. The houses of both Ruthenian and Polish peasants are but one story high, with on 3 room open to the roof. They are made of slabs and bits of refuse timber from the mountain mills. These bits are rudely mortised together. "When the inner struc ture is completed, pegs are driven into the sides. Clay mortar is then thrown upon the pegs and pounded until it is solid. The surfaces are then wet and worked by hand and light mallets until perfectly smooth aud dry, when the huts nre whitewashed and thatched. Little groups of these charm ingly diversify the often dreary Galician landscape. Edgab L. WAKKMATf. GOOD CLOTHING For tbe Poor Man or the Millionaire F. C. C. C, Cor. Grant and Diamond Sts.

Many nice delicacies are of ten spoiled by the abomina ble flavorings used in them and generally their having been spoiled is attributed to the cook. Now if Dr. Price's Delicious Flavoring Extracts are used, cooks will not be unjustly blamed; nice dishes will not be spoiled, as they always impart the delicate fresh-fruit flavor in whatever they are used. To have en joyable and healthful food, the best articles must be se lected to make it It is econ omy for the poorest to, use best. inBHBiiALf TMllflMllMiiffRilnraf iitr"1iWBl, MM ' iririBFiniirwBia WOIZ STILL UB8IHO.
