BOGGS & HI THE OMAHA DAILY BEE: MONDAY, A PERSIAN CARAVANSARY. foenes of Interest in a Great Refugn for Travelers. Picturesque Stopping Places Dedi- cated to the Use of Desert Wan- derersin the Name of God and the Prophet Mohammed, St. James' Gazette: After a march of some four and twenty miles we come m the ecaravansary. To Furopean @ fortress than a refuge for travelers, At each corner of yes it scems more i the huge square stone building isa round | tower loopholed at the top, The erencl lated wall is also loopholed at regular in tervals, At each side of the huge gate way in n incised insc vrhich sty “Shah Abbas the great built this cs ary and dedicated it to the use of travelers in the name of God and the prophet Mohammed.” There is plenty of accommodation in the carayan sary, for on a pinch it can house and and shelter comtortably 2,000 men Close to the caravansary 1s the ablumbar, or covered reservoir. It is supplied from , or underground channel, that avated, at times v dopth of many feet, for some milos; it is always full; the surplus water runs offin a tinv brooklet; the stone dome that covers the reservoir keeps it cool. Unfortunately, these water cellars are a favorite place for hiding the bodies of murdered tray- clers, There is no other building of any kind within a cirele of twenty-four miles of our earavan No food for man can be obtained there. Porhaps in quiet times the doorkecper may have barley and chafl for the horses for sale or even ¢ al. But these things cannot be de- pended on. We have sighted our halting place some three miles off at a turn of the road —that road that was never made or re- paired, but that centuries of traflic have worked out. Our horses, directly they seo the place, prick up their rs and, neighing, mend their pnee. The lagging mules no longer need the awful curses of the charwardars (muleteers) nor the fre- quent applicatien of the cruel chuin- whip. The leader of the c WiLys a horse (not a mule) quickens pace, proudly jangling his bells and tossing his gayly bedizened head, which is decked with woolen and leather ornaments and a searlet headstall, on which are sown many rows of cowries. The muleteers begin to sing and the s ants to smile. Tue cook urges his mulo to a canter, and, amid much clanking of pots, hur on to prepare his master’s dinner. He will supply a good dinner of perhaps four courses and a swoet, his kitchen be- ing four b s in the corner of the stable. As we enter the frowning gateway— which is very similar to that of the s baronial castle, and at times the siz the old Temple Bar—a dervish humbly presents a flower, an unripe plum, or a blade of grass. Nearly naked, his long hair hanging unkempt about his shoul- dors, his eyes sparkling with hope s the combined effects of bhang and relig: ious meditation, a panther-skin over his shoulders, and brandishing a_spiked club, the mendicant looks suflicient “Ya huk!” (O my right!") ho cries, as he asks for alms. Afew cop- pers satisty him, and he magnificently deigns to indicate the cells chosen by our | servants, Around the square inclosed by the four sides of the caravansary are forty-cight deep arches of heavy stonework. In cach arch ave piled the “impedimenta of its tenants; their road Kits, their bales, their panniers, their merchandise. Separate piles of boxes and bales tlung down in cious court-yard have formed the loads of several hundred mules, of per- haps a dozen different caravans; the mules are away grazing around the cara- vansary. Ourservants have taken pos- session of three archways. No man de- mands hire of them, no man says them nay. First come, first served—such is caravansary rule. From one of the arch- ways come clouds of dust; the door- keeper is preparing it for our reception. At tho back of each recess 1s a doorway (a hole in the wall) some four feet by three. This leads to a windowless room of stonework, which has a fireplace and perhaps a chimney—nothing more. The walls are immensoly thick. The place is cold in summer, warm in winter; tho walls and domed roof are black with the smoke of age Behind these runs the stabling—stabling for a thousand animals, As the mules enter the court yard themr loads are hurriedly slipped off “and piled in a heap; the servants drag out a carpet, the portable beds, the bedding, the table and two chairs. The groom takes our horsos; the table servant hands us the fragrant kalian (or hubble-bubble), we squat on the square raised stone plat- form that is in the center of the court- yard, and enjoy the finest mode of smok- ingin the world. The mules in _a large string, each bearing its hanging bell, canter off under the care of an assistant muleteer to be watered at the rill running from the water cellar, The place gets quicter as the caravan settles down, We see that many recesses arve ocenpied by various families; some are poor, even beggnrs, some wealthy merchants; per- ps there isa prince and his suite. | The accommodation is exactly the same. No man is rejected. If you arrive too late to tind a v Nt room, you must sleep in the stable, on the roof of the platform—or buy some poor msn out, Our special recess and room have been swept and carpeted. Our chairs are set up. We partuke of tea under our own special archway. In the inner room there is a remarkable transformation; in in the recess stand our lighted candles; 1 the corners are our beds; there isour tub, of which we gladly avail ourselves; a heavy curtain over the doorless door- way secures our privacy. Tired out, we lie down for a welcome nap. | We are awakened at 5 by the jangling of bells and the shouts of the muleteers. The various beasts of burden are return- ing from pasture. In the courtyard there are rows of mules tied up to ropes peg; to the ground. Each has his nose There are circles of squatting , all chewing at once at a heap of cam cutstraw. In a corner are our horses. We see them fed and examine their backs, being old hands. . The cook is toiling, all booted as he arrived, over his fire. “‘Dinner, sahib,” announces our table servant. The man, as is the custom m this country when truveling, bristles with arms—a ‘long, straight sword, two pistols and u dagger. We adjourn to the me meal, sunset, the gates are closed, the travelers drink tea togother and setin firuups. An ucv:luionurneigh or squab- le emong the numerous beasts t»l!u us we are on the road, A mule breaks loose and runs amuck, He is secured; all is Quiet save an occasional bell gnd the ustant bubble of the water pipes. Some enthnsiastic Musselman intoues the call to prayer: *‘In the name of God, the mighty, the mererful. Fhere is no God but Ged; Mahommed is the Prophet of God.” Many kneel in prayer, as many more go on with their pipes. We dine. Dinner over, we basten to rest, a rest often broken by the meidents of aloosed mule or the departure of & caravan. Atdawn we relue! awake to par- take of tea and bread butter. Laaily we mount our horses. Our earcvan left an hour ortwo ago. Followed by the faithful ceok, the tableman, and the SEPTKMBER 20, 1¢ groom, out a solemn walk, garfvansary twenty-four nus,and we s thirty miles vefor our paragon will roady at a little stream twelvemiles off.

JANKOWSKL LANGUAGE OF RESTAURANTS, A Mysterious Lingo in Use in New York Eating Houses. Startling Terms for Ordinary Edibles and How They Originated, A stranger to restanrant livir apt to wonder wnat he has decided to eat when he hears his or waiter, says the New York Commercial Advertiser. It may take him hfteen min utes to adjust hgappetite to the bill of is protty ot repeated by the fave. Deheate finuncial guestions may enter into the problem. But when the iter calls out that order neit the fnor any other man, except the n tell whether the meal is to be ‘spread” or a 25 cent “snack.” Of course, this does not apply to the sump tuous victualing place of the Delmonico type. There the guest never hears his - given, Waiters of ey dignity or profuse politencss noiselessly bear it to the iavisible region of the Kitehen. The eries that rend the mr as varied as the odors of cooked and cooking eatables that permeate 1t, and a8 mystorious as the hash that is a stanle of the bill of fare. The wait are not burdened with dignity nor bothered by politoness. The yell they hungry man’s wants from the room to the kitchen-hole in the rear with a reckless vigor and in & vernacular that defies in- terpretation by those unversed in restau rant evies. “Tommy in the b-o-w-I, Tommy!" does not first sound convey to ordinary ¢ L definite idea of anything to eat. Neither do such exvressions as “Bobby Blue on the iron,” “Mealo boilo busto," “Plum- up,” T\ with a B.” and ‘“Fea no!" ut- tered with astaceato movement to**plum- nd from that to “‘tea-no” in wild endo. Yet these were the terms in which a young man in & down-town rest- aurant h modest meal described by the waite The young man examined the bill of e. He could discover no reference therein to Tommy's intrusion in & bowl. He was equally unable to n a clew to the proposed torture of Sobby Blue on a_presumably hot iron. He was stitl searching for a key to these strange utterances when two men en- tered the restaurant. They took seats opposite. The waiter sent their combined order ricocheting back to the Kkitchen- hole with “‘Gimme a donble brown-stone front, spuds stew and coftee n 0-0! Come arunnin’!” Then a tall, thin woman, with spectacles and a handbag, came in. She planted herself angulaly at o side table. She glanced at the bill ina per- functory way, artly to the waiter, and plunged into a volume of Mr, Emer. son’s reflections on the oversoul, which she drew from the handbag. An instant later table servitor announced, loud enough to be heard by everyone in the place, that she wanted “One West Broad- cay 'brown, an' have her extra br-o-0-wn!" T'he young man’s interest in gustatory delights h: ‘l"lnng since given place to a study of the mystic sounds all around him.” He settled himself to catch every new eall. A business man was next to give his order. It was watted kitchen- ward by a leather-lunged ter: “‘Let the Dblood follow the knife once; cofee no-o!” According to another lusty de- mand a vouth with thin legs and « high collar, who had just come in, was hungry for *‘P.

Their water declared one was now ready for a T, 0. K. ana both,” and that the other had an appetite tor a ‘“‘Catskill.” Now thoroughly mystified, the young man sought the clerk. That functionary, an accomplished and jaunty young man, was taking in cash and checks with one hand and deftly throwing out chang with the other, a performunce he did not intermit for a second, even when it beeame necessary to sell an impatient customer two 5 cent cigars for a_quarter, berate a waiter for negligence, and order the buck mutton for to-morrow’s lamb stew. “‘Understand that lingo?” ss he. “Well, I haven’t been in the restaurant business in all parts of the_ country for fourteen years without picking up a point or too. n explain all those things to you.
