Before railroads were built in India,
the ordinary mode of rapid travelling
was oy the palki, which was borne OF
the shoulders of four natives. The

pslki bearers are really remarkable. An

ago thus describes a journey which he
made in Bengal

snvnscs Who Cnnno, Produce Fire

1t is not often that explorers discover
savage people who are ignorant Of the
art of producing fire. As far as is
known, fire has been a necessity even
among the rudest savages for many CEN
turies, and it always excites wonder
when we hear at rare intervals OF peo-
pie who, while enjoying the blessings OF
lire, express themselves as wholly ig-
norant OF the methods OF producing 1t -,
and who imagine that if by some caIam-
lty AL their fires were extinguished
they could never rekindle them.
Such a tribe has recently been met by
DIR. Finsch during his travels IN New
Guinea. He says the people in the
large villages that are buried in the
Forests along the shores of Astrolabe
Bay know OF no means by which they
can produce Ere. II is therefore a duty
devolving upon every member Of the
community 20 aid in preserving fire.
All their cooking IS done outside their
huts in the open air, but in the centre
or each hut is fireplace, and il is a
crime to ermit the fire to go out.
They use hard wood that burns very
slowly, and their aim is 10 keep good
bed of Goals on which the wood burns
without bursting into flame,
DR.. Finsch asked the natives II they
never lost their fire. He was told that
such calamity had occurred, and that
they would never have had FIRE again Il
1t had not been for very fortunate Cir
cumstance. They know tribe IN the
mountains away from the sea who pos
the art of making fire, which they
guard as secret. One time the peO-
pie were compelled to 60 TO these ireo
makers for the spark that would rekin-
die the dead embers in their huls.
TheR carried the fire for many miles.
They were determined never again to
be reduced 10 this necessity, though it
made them feel very comfortable to
think that they knew where they could
get fresh fire If they lost their own.

MRS. HUBBs' STATEMENT.

She Says Some Very Hard Things About
Her Mother and Bierce.
STOCKTON, Angus. 9th.-In a column and
a half statement tonight in the Stockton
Weekly Record, Mrs. C. A. Hubs gives her
version of the Chico tragedy over her sigma
ture. She charges Bierce with being a
shiftless fellow, too lazy to work, and says
she never was engaged to him. When he
proposed to her she told him to wait two
years, and if they both felt the same to-
ward each other then she would marry
him. One night she told Bierce she
thought more of Hubbs than of him, and
he drew a revolver, threatening to kill her
unless she would promise to marry him.
In her statement Mrs. Hubbs says
Thursday night, July 18th, knowing that
BierCe did not have pistol, took adj
vantage of the tact and told him would
never be his wife and l wanted my release,
but he said for me not to consider myself
free from him for one year yet
told him he was not doing as he
promised and it would do him no good to
hope on. He only laughed and said, No
romance is complete without tragedy
Friday, July 10th, Bierce had his trial
and was acquitted. He came back and
went to boarding at our place. Friday
night he and mother informed me they
were going 10 get Incense the next DAY.
cried. and said it was not treating me fairly.
Mother said it must be done to save her
reputation, for the rumor had spread abroad
that she and Bierce were too intimate, and
that / cared nothing for him."
Mrs. Hubbs then continues and gives the
details OF the elopement and tragedy.
Mrs. Hubbs statement of the reported
intimacy between Bierce and her mother
has created sensation. She is at present

ADJUSTMENTS,

A fine and highly intelligent audience
assembled in the Metropolitan Theater last
night to greet and judge Robert Mantell
in the melodrama "Monbars." 1t was a
finished performance throughout by a
capable and admirably managed company.
Mr.. Mantell is an artist of fine quality.
His perception of the rarer and
better methods of expression and
Interpretation of the emotions and
passions is that of the student
of human nature, and the skillful analyst
OF the motives that actuate men when the
affections are involved. His "Monbars"
was mastery impersonation the very
coinage of art. 1t is not now recalled that
! there are even half dozen actors upon the
American stage equally successful in as
| Stunning the intensity of passion and convey
ing the idea of the almost unfathomable
depth of emotion. His method is not one
| of violence or effortfulness-it is rather by
repression that ne intensi6es and vital
ICES the thought his action expresses. There
were no two opinions among his auditors
as to the ability and genius of the artist,
whatever division of sentiment there may
have been concerning his method. No
| actor coming before this public stranger
| received more cordial Endorsement or more
| tiattering evidences of approval from a
cultivated audience than were bestowed
last evening upon Mr.. Mantell. Miss
| Behrens shared fairly the honors be-
slowed, and won the sympathies and ap-
| proval of her auditors by her ad-
| mirable personation of the difficult
| character she assumed. 1t lacked
perhaps something of vigor, but nothing
| in grace and womanliness. The support
was excellent throughout, and the play in
the hands of the company was a finished,
| richly-colored and highly-attuned perform
| ance. After each act, both Mr.. Mantell and
Miss Behrens were complimented by re-
calls, and at the fourth act Mr.. Mantell
was thrice accorded that favor, one in which
Sacramento audiences indulge very spar
ingly. The play itself is handsomely
staged; is probable, human, dealing with
life in its realities, and without any
shading whatever that could offend
the most exactiDg demand for purity
of thought and expression. It will
be repeated for matinee performance this
afternoon, with the prices at rs, 80 and %
cents. Tonight, the last of the company
here, Mr.. Mantell will advance his claims
as Shakespearean student in the character
of Othello, in which he has attained, it is
claimed by his friends, his best.

CARDS AND WHISKY.

They Cause Leading Physician of Ari-
IONA to Commit Murder.
TOMBSTONE "a. t., August 9th DIR.
George Z. Goodfeliow, leading physician
of this city, got into a quarrel with Frank
Wright this afternoon and fatally stabbed
him with a knife five inches in length.
The doctor was gambling all last night
and lost $500, and was under the influence
of liquor at the time.
There is great indignation against Good
fellow over the affair, as the stabbing was
done after Wright hsdsbeen arrested and
was in charge of policeman. The wound
is over the kidneys on the right side of the
back and is five inches deep. 1t is sup
posed Wright will die.

to give him an interview. He also refused
to accept him as a Consul General, and
only yielded to his Ministers under protest
saying that the responsibility must be with
them. The reasons given by his Majesty
for his action is that Mr.. Severance was
dismissed from the Office of Hawaiian Con-
sui in San francisco for cause. His
Majesty feels that Mr.. Severance's appoint
ment marks lack of courtesy on the part
of the United States officials.
