Spalding Eager, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Charles W. Spaldinf, of Norwich, gives an in- teresting glimpse of life In the Port- uguese capital under present exciting conditions. Mrs. Eager is widow of George Eager. who at his death two years ago was U. S. consul- at Barmen, Germany. Since that date Mrs. Eager has remained on in Europe with her young daughter, con- tinuing her study.and teaching of music. It is thirteen vears since she has been at her parents’ home in Norwich, but she may return during the coming summer. Mrs. Eager writes: Carnival has come azain and in Lis- bon, capital of Portugal, land of dreams and dramas, of sunshine and showers, of revolutions ad noveaux- riches. Car- nival is always received with delight. No one Wants to remember that for over a weelk, troops have been arriving from the provinces and camping on the out- skirts of city. Last week wh esident and his minister Were fleeing out of the city, to the fortress of Cascais, all Lisbon went to Campo Grande to a football mateh between Oporto and Lisbon. The pres- fdent fleeing and the troops on the “lin- ha de circunvallacoa” must mot be al- lowed to interrupt a football match, es- pecially between the two rival capltals! And then, on Wednesday, came those elght hundred Americans, en tour, in the Empress of France, and when one has guests in the house, one really must be on one's best behavior; so the naughty boys here. in Lisbon said nothing and the troops waiting out there said noth- ing and the Americans went away, one of them saying, “It is a country happy and content, in spite of all its bad r utation.” And now King Carnival is here and the Plerrots and Colombines, the Harle- quins and Polichinelos and the “Numho- tas,” the prettiest of all the nation: tumes, must have their day and all is laughter and dancing, but Lent Is coming; Quaria-fria de Cinzas will soon be here and then the guns, metalha- doras and the cannon waiting their turn, out there, and those others jug arriving, and those on the day will have their day The enemy walting the signal for attack? No! much worse. Brothers! Civil war. Rural Carrier Examination.
