B0ADS1DE INCIDENTS AND SCENES
rCORKISPOKTETCE OF THE DISPATCH. 1
Truko, Cornwall, June 4. Almost
until to-day, as time is measured, Cornwall
has been to the remainder of England a
veritable terra incognita, "'West Barbary"
it was contemptuously called to describe its
nncanniness, its supposed ignorance and its
popularly accredited semi-barbarism. "What
weird and desolate Connamara, in Ireland's
wild 'West, is and has always been to the
Green Isle, this scarred and ragged penin
sula has been to England.
Of its 400,000 souls, one-tenth, from
youth to death, in darkness pick and blast
in shift and drift beneath its wind-swept
moors. Until a century since a distinct
language, the Cornnbian Celtic, was spoken,
taught and preached. To-day in some of
the larger towns "the purest English
spoken" is said to prevail; bu t again to-day
not a league from these towns, among fisher
iolks, miners and peasants, an ordinary
Englishman or American can scarcely un
derstand a word uttered. Yet here are life
and scene of the greatest fascination; both
life and scene ot simplicity, beauty and
grandeur; while romance and legend glow
wondrously in every tor, combe and stream;
romance and legend the oldest and most
winsome in all England. Here lived,or were
born to deathless legend, Arthur, Launcelot
and Guinevere, and the brave old Bound
Table knights.
Geocrapnio OddiUrs of Cornwall
It is a curious shaped bit ot land, this
rugged old Cornwall. Its geographic con
tour suggests the strange silhouette of some
couchaut gigantic mastifi) or huge iild
beast It is easy to see in its southernmost
outreaching, its two powerful fore feet. In
its northern coast line will be found its
braced and bristling back. In its most
northern projection will be seen an erect
and defiant taiL In its eastern Devonshire
boundary are its massive haunches and hind
ieet wedged against the eternal granite ot
Devon. And its furthermost sea-split,
ocean-battling promontory, is the open
mouth of the stone leviathan, set savagely
toward the seething Scilly Isles, forever
lasted witn spume and iume of its inter
minable battles with the Atlantic.
"Were you to stand, as I have done, on
Hensbarrow, one of its drear and highest
peaks, you could see smiling Devon to the
east; almost to JLandsend. its farthest
westward wall; to Lizard Head, its remotest
southern headland; across its entire reach
of hills and moorlands, far out upon St.
George's Channel to the northwest and
over the white sails of fisher and coaster to
the southeast, even to the dim cone of that
most wondrous ot all mariners' beacons, the
splendid Eddystone Lighthouse.
But standing on that spot little else than
apparent desolation meets the eye. The
moorlands stretch dolorously as if in bound
less loneliness. The tors or hills are bleak
and bare. The whole face of nature seems
torn and scarred, as it by tremendous ele
mental struggles. Yet all these caverns
and chasms which disfigure it were made by
the hand of man. Its granite, shale and
elate hide copper, tin and iron.
Work of Lonc-Eitlnct Volcanoes.
For more than 3,000 years its surface has
been cleft and its depths gored and bored
until its face is pitted as it with extinct
volcanoes, whose bases were honeycombed,
sometimes to a mile's depth, and, otten
laterally, so far outward beneath the ocean,
that its very shell was cracked and broken,
until, to prevent the sea dropping through,
the bottom was stuffed and plugged and
soldered like a leaky old basin.
This is what you will see and feel and
know among the downs and tors along the
rocky backbone of Cornwall. But along the
north coast, in summer, and everywhere
uponthe south coast in summer, and nearly
all winter, are never-ending surprises of
scenic beauty. Indeed the entire south
x.agusn ana xrisn coasts are almost semi
tropic lands. Semi-tropio bits of land surely
can be found; for I have seen at Bourne
mouth, at Torquay and at Plymouth, in
England, at Truro, Falmouth and Penzance
in Cornwall, and at Youghal, alongside Sir
"Walter Ealeigh's old home, in Ireland,
roses in full bloom and luxuriantly foliaged
myrtle, out of doors in mid-winter.
Along the way I am leisurely tramping,
witfr the English Channel nearly always in
sight, are innumerable Cornish valleys of
slumberous beauty. Tiny burns and
combes are cut through the walls by the
sea. Through every one limped streams go
singing and tumbling to the ocean. Along
the valley sides are white hamlets, or the
quaint old homes, the rich acres and the
sleek herds of the thrifty farmers of Corn
wall. Irtjvely Tales on Every Hand.
Tramp these coast roads but a mile, and
you will suddenly stumble upon these
lovely vales the stream, the larms half
hidden by generous foliage dotting the
sides far up the combe as eye can reach;
here a rumbling old mill; there a nestling
church; below you a quaint old village;
beyond, the tiny haven skirted by the
homes of fishers, and speckled by odd old
fishers' crafts; further a tide ploughing up
between massive haven walls, or a stretch
of low tide rock and drift; and at last the
bright blue sea. Beautilul scenes are these
for the eye and heart-mind to dwell upon;
imiujjr iu bc iouna in sucn numDer and win
someness anywhere else upon all of Eng
land's coast.
Just beiore you pass from Devonshire into
Cornwall you will find most intense the
English suspicion that Cornish folk are a
sort ot barbarians. The landlord of the
little inn where I lodged in Plymouth,
though admitting that he had never crossed
the Tamar, commiseratingly ventured the
sympathetic remark that he'd be blessed if
he wouldn't prefer "Whitechapel to Corn
wall "Wy, 'n them Cousin Jacks knows nowt
but tin," he added with a flourish. "Nig
gar blood in 'em too, they do say. Black as
a pit mouth, 'alf on 'em. An' blessed if
you'll get nowt t'eat better 'n' 'oggans 'n
laggans, from Saltash to Land's Hend."
Ho people in the world are more clannish,
or more resent encroachment by marriage
or in social and business affairs, than tbe
Cornish. Their olden language, supersti
tions and traditions are all Celtic They
are impassioned, impulsive, and excitable
as are all Celts; but they possess a dumb
patience, an aggressive defensiveness
against innovation and an humble and
steadfast thrilt which reveals something
like the Hebrew strain.
A. Frank and Mncere Folk.
Their ways are rough, and Cornish man
ners are the frankest and sincerest of any
people I have ever been among. They com
prise simply meaning what you say arid say
ing what you mean, whatever the subject
or occasion. All this, too, with absolute
unconsciousness of affront. Between Pol
perro and Lanlarue a youth gave me a help
along the way in bis donkey cart laden with
sand. I thanked bim heartily on alighting.
Looking at me squarely in the face he
asked:
"Wusent
my son?"
He gota sixpence for the fair, for which
all Cornish boys endeavor to secure a
"box" or bit ot money, and my apologies
for not recognizing his honest right in the
matter. Cornish tolk, big and little, have
no truculency in asking ior their just due.
The plainess of speech is everywhere met
with. The lad's expression, "my son," had
no levity or taunt in it It is everywhere
here a term of friendship and respect

Philadelphia, June 16. Special
College days are over for the class of '92 at
the University of Pennsylvania. The ivy
ind the ivy tablet which are to remind
future classes of the greatness of those who
have gone before were put in place on
the walls of College Hall on Tuesday
with appropriate ceremonies, and the
fun of four years was summed up at the
class-day exercises yesterday. To-day the
class took the final farewell of alma mater.
This was the university's one hundred and
thirty-sixth annual commencement, held in
the Academy of Music There were 108
graduates in arts, science, law and veterin
ary medicine, besides 17 who received
certificates. The medical and dental com
mencement was held last month.
The exercises were begun at noon to-day
with the procession of the provost, trustees,
graduates, guests and undergraduates.
Matthew Patton, of Pennsylvania, was the
first speaker, delivering the bachelor's ora
tion, "Celeritas Ingeniorum." Robert B.
P. Bradford, ot Delaware, had the law ora
tion, "The Individual and Society." Bev.
Ernest P. Miel, of New York, '88, deliv

New Bottles," and the valedictory was de
livered by "William Duane, of New Jersey.
the subject being "University Extension in
Athens." The candidates then came for
ward and received their diplomas from Pro
vost Pepper.
Besides the conferring of degrees upon
the undergraduates, five master's degrees
were given, seven technical degrees in en
gineering and 11 degrees in divinity, medi
cine and dentistry. Five degrees of Doctor
of Philosophy were conferred, including one
upon Miss Anna E. Brown, who is the first
woman to receive this degree lrom the Uni
versity. "William "W. Gilchrist, the com

ways dismissed my escort before the nla.ee
was reached, determined to pass the nights
in the homes of the lowly.
This sort of procedure and conversation
with others than farmers upon the subject,
gradually developed the fact that Cornish
farmers have nothing in common with the
cret body of Cornish people. They are a
species of "gentry" in the minds of the
latter. Though only tenant farmers, their
holdings are large for England, from 20 to
100 aores, and have been occupied for gen
erations bv the same families on 99 years'
leases. They often go to "Lunnon," and
their children are sent to Truro for school
ing. They are stanch supporters of the
Established Church, while the masses are
"Wesleyans.
People Who Are Ever Hospitable.
But the fisher and mining folk are un
equivocally hospitable. The fisherman will
take care of you in his little cottage with
out question, without locking a thing in his
habitation against you, but still with a
dumb sort of quiescence. The miner is a
more rouch and ready fellow, and if not
always hearty about it, settles the matter
for or azainst vou at once. All this the
literary tramp will quickly discover; and I
shortly began directing my diplomacy
toward the ordinary home in the mining
villages.
You will find them through nearly all the
length of Cornwall from Liskeard to
Penzance, and they are seldom clustered in
dirty villages contiguous to the mines as
in our country. I do not recall a single in
stance of this sort during my entire journey
ing. Two, three, four, a half dozen and
sometimes a score, may be found together.
They are in all sorts of odd and out-of-the-way
places,on the roads and off Like the Irish
cabins, they are ottenest at the back, in
stead of at the front, of somewhere or any
where. Nearness to a mine seems to possess
no advantage.
The furniture of the "Cousin Jack's"
home, though scant, is honest and useful.
At the fireplace is the "brandes," a trian
gular iron on legs, on which, usually over
furze fires, the kettles boil, the circular cast
iron "baker" and cover are set, and the fish
or meat, when they can be Indulged in, is
"scrowied" or grilled. There are perhaps
four chairs. These will have solid ma
hogany frames, but the seats are of painted
pine and are waxed weekly. These four are
"best," and are all the "best For every
day use one or two "firms" or rude benches
are provided.
.Furniture of Orglnal Design.
The single table is of pine, one top com
ing flush with the sides, the other, detached,
two inrhesthick, one side unpainted and
scoured snowy white daily with "growder,"
a rotten granite which lathers like soap,
and tbe other side painted for Sunday or
"company" use, and a drawer beneath for
rude cutlery. The table ware is something
startling in cheap goods, and each member
of the family is provided with a real
cnany cup and saucer with a gorgeous
gilt band. Two or three rude engravings,
generally of Scriptural subjects in cheap
oaken frames, such as the village carpenter
may make, with the beds and bedding under
the thatch, complete the furniture of the
miner's cottage.
For his class and means he is a generous
liver. Soups and stews are consumed by
the gallon. For his breakfast, if he is out
of the mine, "mawther," the wife, will
provide the usually "villainous "tay" con
turned by the English and Irish working
classes, infrequently an egg, perhaps a bit
saffron-cake, a Cornish favorite apparently
devoid of everything but sweet and color,
and, maybe, bread (without butter) and
treacle. Sometimes this is varied with
"butter-sops," stale bread scalded and
seasoned meagerly. At noon, or for tbe
mine "croust" or lunch, there ate
"taty pasties,,' or potatoes and vagrant
meat scraps inclosed in a crescent
shaped crust, interchangeable with
"figgy pasties," the same as "taty
pasties," with a few raisins added, "hog
gans" or round pork-pies, and "fg
gans" tough crust cakes so hard, at least
in Cornish renown, that they would not
break if hurled down a 1,000 fathom mine
shaft For supper, "croust," that is, lunch
of any sort lett over from the day's pro
visions, or perhaps a "baker o' taties,"
which means mashed potatoes fried in
.grease, turned and browned, and cut in as
many segments as there are members of the
family, may be provided. The one big
Sunday meal, however, is seldom lacking
in a generous supply of boiling meat, and
as every cottage has its acre or hali-aore
garden, there is always. In summer, a
bountiful supply of vegetables in the
Cornish miner's home.

HARNESS FOR NIAGARA.
Colonel Henkle's Latest Soherae for Getting
Power From the Falls.
'Niagara Falls, 7hne 16. Special
Ten years ago Colonel Leonard Henkle an
nounced his purpose to transmit the power
of Niagara Falls to the cities of the Do
minion and the United States. Now, he
comes with another great scheme. He
would erect an Immense building, 800 feet
high, having a tower 250 feet high, from
the Goat Island Shore to the mainland on
on the Canada side. Iron chutes would
conduct the waterfront the rapids above
the Falls to the building. The flow
of water into these chutes would
commence some distance up stream, and by
tbe time the building was reached there
would be a fall of 300 feet or more to the
river bed. Powerful turbines wonld be lo
cated in the wheel pits in this imposing
structure, and then tbe great river would
fall and generate power, according to
Hankie.
"Not one bit of excavation will be neces
sary," said he, "for huge plates to fit the
river's bottom will be cast for a foundation.
Not a bit of water will be diverted from its
usual course, but this mighty river, as it
flows through our building, will contribute
its awful force for man's benefit and profit
There are $18,800,000 back of me, and we
shall attain success." Asked how he would
make the first connection from shore to
shore at this dangerous spot, he replied:
"by shooting a silver wire across." It re
mains to be seen whether the Colonel is
again ten years ahead of the times.

What is It?
A substitute for lard?
Upsetting the customs, hab
its, and prejudices of cen
turies? Yes, all this and
more. Cottolene is a new
cooking product it is bet
ter than lard or butter for
cooking, so say such noted
housekeepers as
Marlon Harland,
Catharine Owen,
Christine Terhune Horrlck,
Emma P. Ewing,
Mrs. S. T. Rorer,
Mrs. F. A. Benson,
Amy Barnes,
Margaret Wister,
and, many others; it is
healthier so says every
thoughtful physician; and it
is cheaper as every house
keeper knows when she
finds that one-half the quan
tity answers every purpose.
COTTOLENE
is the purest clarified cot
tonseed oil mixed with pure
beef fat. It is the cook
ing material ever devised
for frying anything and
everything easily digested
and highly nutritious.
Beware of imitations. Ask your
grocer for the genuine Cottolene.
