New Hobridos Hair Dressing

The inhabitants of Tanna have more
Of the negro cast of countenance than
Papuan tribes usually have, but there
are good-looking men and women
among them They paint their faces
with red earth, which they get from the
neighboring islands of Aneiteum and
Erromang7 They frizzle their hair,
and the men especially carry hair
dressing into fine art. Dr. Turner
says he counted no fewer than seven
hundred separate curls on the head of
one young exquisite. A similar prac-
tice of twisting the hair into innumera-
BILE spiral curls exists among the Banyai
of Central Africa. The people OF
ranna are fond OF ornaments, but not
of very much clothing They do not
tattoo, but they wear fearful and won
derful tortoise shell arrangements in
their ears. All Tie Yea, RonNd.

Tho Earthquake in America.


New YORK, Thursday.-The latest
reports from CharlesteA show that the
effects of the earthquake are far more
disastrous than at first supposed
The convusion was SO great that
three-fourths Of the city have been
destroyed. Most of the inhabitants
were able to effect their escape before
the houses fell, and are now encamped
out of doors. Great prlvation is being
suffered.
The shocks still continue.
Charleston, one Of the oldest towns in the
United States, is a seaport of Massachusetts,,
situated on a peninsula north Of Boston and
close TO that town. The streets are irregular,
but finely shaded, and the houses are generally
good, some even being handsome and spaci-
Gus, the pure air and good site attracting many
rich Boston commercial men to take up their
residence there. The town hrs population
of about 10000. 1t was separately incorpo-
rated apart from Boston in I847. Charleston
is famous as being the scene of one OF the best
known battles of the American War of indie
pendence, that of Bunker's Hill, fought in
June, I775, between the Royast troops under
Oenera Howe ana the American troops under
FGeneral Putnam. During the action, in which
the Americans were dislodged, Charleston,
!hen suburb of Boston, was set on fire by
the Americans and entirely consumed. The
bill from which the battle got its name is now
crowned by monument of solid granite, 22o
feet high, commemorative of the event. sgd
nty HeraH IN S. ", }, Sept 10, 1880.
In connection with the above, we
beg to inform eur Wis of the 7ri6nne,
that Charleston is not Charlestown, but
Charleston--which is not in Massa-
chusetts, but in South Carolina, and
Boston is not in Philadelphia, nor is
New York in Richmond, and the bat
tie of Bunker Hill was not fought in
South Carolina, at least such is the
report, and history does net say "the
Americans were dislodged at that bat

The Western Druggist, in response
to an inquiry of Dakota correspond

replies; ayes, love powder is stand

full remedy in the hands of designing
maids. Its co IMPOSITION is of little
consequence except that it be red--a
deep bright red AS to the mode Of
administration, the most approved way

His Services Not Needed.

Az amusing little episode occurred
in police circles at Macon recently,
An Atlanta man has been separated
from his wife for some time, and while
in Macon he has been honest and
industrious. One day his wife came
down to effect a reconciliation. Officer
Allen Jones was detailed to be on
hand, with Instructions not to let him
talk to her too roughly. The officer
accompanied her to the place where
her husband was and respectfully stood
aside The two looked at each other a
moment, then simultaneously burst
into tears and fell into each others
arms. In few minutes the wife APP
peared and said; "Very much obliged
to you Mr., Jones. We will not need
your services" And all was serene. II

adopted without the aid of n mill

! The gymnasium is fairly entitled

,Justice in Turkey.

A gentleman, formerly a profess
sor III Roberts College, Constants
nople, relates the following travesty
of Justice illustrative of the law III
Turkey. where an accused man
must Prove his innocence beyond a
doubt, or else he is declared guilty:
A convert to Christianity came
to DR.. Lord.a missionary there, land
asked if it was tight to tell a lie
=. his was a staggerer for the doc
tor. and he said he would have to
know the case before he could de-
eide, although, on general pl'inci'
piles. he did not think it was.
THE case is this" replied the
,ccker after the Truth. "a Turk, 4
stranger to me, livingi in Rustchuk.
accused me of buying and receiving
1lom him 1000 sheep. ! knew OF
no way of proving that / did not
buy and receive these sheep, and
The case must certainly go against
me. Ii came up fer trial today,
ami after the charge had been
made, / admitted that had bought
and ltccived the sheep (Which was
:: lie.) and had at the same time
raid Tor them in full. He couldn't
prove that | had not, so the case
was dismissed at once"
The doctor thought that if evcl
n lie was .iustitiable, that was Ger
ta;nly the time.
