to perform its duty without injuring

say in all candor, is Simmons 1lcpatic

4 E-VoODOOED PILLOW.
The Manner in Which Colored Woman
Relieved Her Father.

An incident which strongly illustrates
the peculiarly superstitious disposition o.
the Southern negro, especially in regard
to the mysterious voodoo charms
and their power to harm: came within
the notice Of reporter Of the Plcayunc
the other evening.
On st. Mary street, near the levcc.
the reporter met young negro woman
walking towards the river, carrying a
pillow slung over her right shoulder.
She looked neither to the right nor the
left, but straight ahead, with such q
strange expression that the curiosity OF
the reporter w2s aroused.
.'Whither are YOU going:' he inquir-
ed.
''I'm a-going to the ribber," she an
swered. Ito drown dis yer hoodoo pill
low. Dar's bic hoodoo charm i'll dat.
sar; it made my old father so sick dat
for de last two weeks he's ben a-!going
out of his head and a-getting thinner
and thinner. l flowed as dere was
some hoodoo business, and l felt of his
pillow, and sure 'nuf' l felt dc Ting in
de pillow"
.'What was it?'' queried the reporter.
Il dasn't look" she replied, but it
feels hard and bony-like and Pm gwine
to drown it. does 1t in dis way when
1 gets to de ribber bank, l pull out my
knife, holds the pillow in my left hand,
rip the pillow case and throw de feath-
ers into de ribber over my left shoulder.
Den Llook toward de water and see if
de feathers take any shape. If dey are
voodooed. dey'll take some shape OF
animile or udder and dive under de
water, and den de charm will be kilt an
de ole man'll get we'll"
This supcrtitious belief caused the re-
porter to smile, and he tried to reason
with the woman, but she shook her
head and said: "Dc hoodoos am
mighty powerful people, sar; dcy kin
hurt surc's your born"
y few days afterwards the reporter
met the same woman and iokngly i'll
quired about the ''hoodooed" pillow.
oh" she said, de ole man is all
rite now; he kin cat a whole water
milyun and four slices o'bacon and 4
big chunk O. corn bread for dinner now.
Yes sar, dc feathers WAS hoodoocd.
When I ircw dem in dc ribber and |
looked, deE had taken dc shape ola dog;
den dey changed to a small sheep; den
dey looked like a duck and tioated away,
and den dcy was a white fish that dlvcd
in and never came back. clappcd my
hands and said, De ole mans all rite
now;' and sure 'nutt he's all rite
now. ."--New Orleans Picayune.
