THE BABOO OF BENGAL

on the rmi
So we arranged to drive the next mora
Ing rery early, to eee the Tower of Si
Icnce on Malabar hill, whither the Parse
living bear the Parsee dead, bidding them
a more utter farewell thau is conceived
by any other people of any other creed on
earth. Two native soldiers stood in the
queen's uniform at tho gate, and looked
at U3 w ith surprise. It was late in the
season and early in the day for people
who wanted to see the century old sight
they prou-cted from tho over curious.
Louis went up to one of them wdth in
torpidity and showed him our passes. He
shook his head and said something in his
own tongue. Neither of us understood
it in the very least. I produced a phrase
which I had carefully concocttd on the
way from a "Handbook of Hindutaneo'
purchased in Calcutta, and w hich I in
tended to mean "We wish to see the Tow
ers of Silence." But the man only looked
at his fellow and grinned. I tried an
other phrase and yet another, but com
prehension did not come. Then I reflect
ed that perhaps the language of the Baboo
of Bengal was not necesaarily that of the
native "Tommy" of Bombay, and later
investigation proved this to bo the case.
Finally one of the men pointed with his
gun to a small house nearby, and nodded
his head violently as Louis made as if she
would knock. So she knocked loudly
and presently there appeared, in blink
ing undress, a very short, 6tout old Par
see, who instantly retreated again. We
then sat down beneath a mango tree and
awaited events.
The old Parseo was not long in reap
pearing, tall red cap and gown, and gir
dlo and all. In his hand he carried a
large Ley, with which ho beckoned to ua
to follow him. Ue went up the steps,
unlocked the gate and let us in. Tho
road still ascended before us through tho
outskirts of a tropical garden, and we
climbed to another iron gate, which tho
old Parse unlocked. There we stood in
tho dead calm of early morning, with
the yellow light in the eastern sky threat
ening every moment to break into flame,
in a strange place. Flowers bloomed
around us, those crimson and purple
flowers of the tropics that are all sense
and no soul. Bordered paths led in dif
ferent directions, neatlv kept, and clumps
of trees did their best to give the spot
shadow and sentiment. We were not
looking at the flowers, but at live strange,
round, white structures that roso at a
little distance, divided from us by a wall,
in the midst of heavy masses of trees.
The oldest of them had ben there 200
years, with never a profanation of its
name or office a tower cf hilence all
tliat time. The others had been added as
they were needed. They were not vaults
and they were not cemeteries, yet their
business was with the dead.
EY ORDER OF ZOEOASTEIt.
They first arose 3,fK) vears ago br
command of Zoroaster, as you doubtless
know, thus: The elements, said Zoroas
ter, are sacred as symbols of the deity,
therefore should never be contaminated
or denial. Neither earth nor lire nor
water should serve a Parses after death
had made him acorrujt thing. His lody
should l placed on a tower, high alore
all human habitation?, that living men
should not bo polluted by it, and no foot
cnt r thej-e but those of its bearers, who
should leave It and come away. And
the towers of Zoroaster's thought, 2,000
year3 ago, wero the towers with the
Litest sanitary improvements, that stood
before ua in the year of grace which
gives one an idea of the real meaning of
conservatism.
We saw a model of the structures
! pliown in the garden, and understood it
with the help of th hotel hand book.
Th--y are built of solid black granite, and
coTercd ith whit cheenam. Inside is

Parthenon of Athena la u a village to
a city. Two hundred and twenty years
were pact la tuilihsg the eucture,
and no known edifice has ever
equaled it in dimensions or grandeur.
Beautiful speckuene of the sculptor's art
abound in the ruin. The ruins of the
theatre, which was once the ecece of the
great uproar recorded la Act xix, en
able one to form a pretty definite idea cf
what the building must have been at the
time when it had a capacity for over
fifty thousand visitors; and the stadium,
or race oouree, afforded acoomxnodatious
for no load than seventy-five thousand
spectators. It still exhibits the terraces
which were cut In the rock for the con
venience of its frequenters. Dut 1 must
not linger longer amid the ruins.
After an excellent lunch, of which
various delicious preparation of rice
formed the principal part, we again
rxarded the train and returned to
Smyrna, where the glad news awaited us
that the Pandora would not resume her
trip until midnight. This afforded us
the welcome opportunity of viewing the
city. W e found Smyrna a delightfully
clean and attractive place. Dr. Talmago
visited an every day mission, wherehe
charmed the auditors with his matchless
eloquence.
The next morning found us at Myti
lene, where the American consul re
ceived us cordially and insisted on show
ing us around. He presented us to Con
fctantinos Valiadis, tho Greek archbishop,
and to Fahn Bey, the Turkish governor.
The former of those dignitaries con
versed with us in German and insisted
on our partaking of Turkish Delight, the
most popular because the most delicious
cf sweets, recommending it as a sure
cure for dyspepsia, with winch he had
heard the American nation particularly
was afflicted. The governor, who was
fairly covered with diamonds and other
precious stones, spoke perfect English.
He invited u to inspect the Turkish
fortress at Mytilene. Before we left he
pent one of his servants out into his gar
den to pick the choicest oranges, which
included, as a matter of course, the de
licious mandarin variety, for our refresh
ment.
At all these places wa had recently vis
ited, Paul had stopped. In Ephesus for
three years he "ceased not to warn ev
cry one night and day with tears." From
Mytilene he sailed to Samos, and thus
pursued his journey to the end. How
full of interest these places were to Dr.
Talmage only he himself could telL Ho
delighted to roam about in them, and
read habitually those passages in the
Bible which made references to them
In the train on the way to Ephesus he
read aloud the entire Epistle to the Ephe-
6ians, explaining it3 meaning as he pro
ceeded.
Of our subsequent travels in Europe
there is no necessity that I should write,
the cablegrams published in the news
papers having kept tho public fully in
formed regarding them. I therefore end
here tho recital of my experiences as his
traveling companion with Dr. Talmage
on his recent tour abroad.
