At War With thc Bnhi.

The Bubi tribe, who inhabit the little
island of Fernando Po in the Gulf of
Guinea, recently made raid upon the
town Of Santa Isabel, and had it not
been for the timely arrival of Spanish
gunboat they would probably have re-
duccd the town TO ashes. Their King
and a number of his followers were cap
tured and are still in custody. They
have once been severely logged in the
open air, and the news was sent to their
friends
The Bubi are among the most peculiar
people ever discovered Though their
island home contains only about 500
square miles, and the whites, Portuguese,
British and Spanish, have been in pos
session for four centuries, the natives were
almost as little known rs though they
lived i'll Central Africa until II few years
ago. They live far up among the mount
aims that occupy the interior of the island.
For generations at time they did not
molcst the white residents of the coast
unless they venturcd into the interior.
They kept Il breed of fcrocious dogs,
which were II greater source of terror tc
the whites than the Bubi themselves,
though the latter were we'll armed with
arrows and spears. At one time when
they were mt war with the whites they
were accused of stealing into the settle
mcnts in the night time and poisoning
wells. They have never yet been sub
jugated, though n while ago white
traveller, by exercising great patience and
perseverance managed to win their con-
iidencc, lived among them for some time,
and two years ago he published n book
giving the first detailed information
about the native inhabitants.
This is probably the only instance Oh
record of an island, twenty miles wide,
being i'll possession of the whites for four
centuries, during which time. they were
not able to explore the interior. .-Nes

An All;gat0r's Nest.

Alligators, as rule, have regular
place of retreat on the bank of stream
or tarn. This is cxcavatcd with their
fore paws, and, according TO some crack
ers, the dirt is carried away in the mouth
OF the engineer, who bac5s into deep
water and dsgorges its load, then re-
turns to renew the operation until it has
made itself capaas..i2,st9.cme under water
This will readily account for the size
of the mouth, for it must not only pro-
cure food, but also act as mud-scow.
The female adopts the same method for
building her nest, and not only SIS her
mouth, but also takes load bctws si her
forclegs when she is in hurry. She
can, by this means, accomplish much
work in a day, for she never seems to
tire.
It is quite amusing TO watch a youn:'
mother build her first nursery, she being
not only fussy and vigilant, but so sus-
'icious that few ilnttering leaves star
her cut OF her wits --Ouiaq.

Talking 20 oneself.

Everyone has, doubtless, at some time
or another caught himself talking to him
self and smiling as he walked along the
street, and has felt his ears get hot as he
wondered how many people had OBJ
served him and put him down as an
escaped lunatic. If he wants to see just
exactly how ridiculous and idiotic the
action is he can observe other people
similarly absorbed in their own convcrsa-
ton. 1t is not everybody who, caught
in the act, tan get out Of it as wttily as
did the Irishman who, when rallied upon
talking to himself, said he had good rea-
son to do so rs ale liked to talk to n
sensible man and liked to hear Il sensible
man talk" The shame people feel at be-
ing surprised in this talk to themselves is
due, if the truth were known, to the fact
that the talk is generally of suprcmely
egotistic character. the talker generally
being i'll Imagination in some important
position where his words carry weight.
He is not seldom complimenting himself,
rs in his minds ear he hears somebody
else complimenting him.-a. Louis Star

Casl,cs Stitched with Ants Jaws.

Ants are terrible fighters. They have
very powerful jaws, considering the size
of their bodies, and therefore their method
of fighting is by biting.
They will bite one another and hold on
with wonderful grip of tho jaws, even
after all their legs have been bitten of
by other ants. Sometimes six or eight
ants will be clinging with death grip
to one another, making peculiar spccta-
Gle, some with a leg gone and some with
half the body gone.
One singular fact is that the grip of an
ants jaw is retained even after the body,
has been bitten off and nothing but the
head remains. This knowledge is pos
scssed by Il certain tribe of Indians in
Brazil, South America, who put the ants
to very peculiar use.
When an Indian gets cash cut in his
hand, instead of having the flesh .sewed
together as the physicians do in this coun-
try, he procurcs five or six large black
ants, and, holding their heads near the
cash, they bring their jaws together in
biting the flesh, and. thus pull the two
sides of the flesh together.
Then tic Indian pinchcs off the bodies
OF the ants and leaves their heads cling
ing to the flesh, which is held together
until the gash is perfectly healed.

WISE WORDS.

Wit is the salt of conversation, not the
food
The readiest and surcst way TO get rid
Of censure is to correct ourselves.
The morning of life is like the dawn
OF day, full of purity, of imagery and
harmony.
Gratitude is tho faircst blossom which
springs from the soul; and the heart of
man knoweth nonc more fragrant.
Men don't go around nowadays trying
to break girls hearts. But very good
men can be thoughtlcss and selfish.
Nothing i'll life is more remarkable
than the unnecessary anxiety which we
endure and generally occasion ourselves.
There is nothing so elastic as the hu-
man mind. Like imprisoned steam, the
more it is pressed the more it rises to re-
sist the pressure. The more we are
obliged to do, the more we are able TO
accomplish.
Purity OF heart is more by far than
power of brain, more than dcftncss of
hand Human welfare is all built up on
moral purity. Our acts are the outcome
of thought, and the character of the
thought depends on the moral state.
Every one must see daily instances of
people who complain from mere habit
OF complaining; and make their friends
uneasy and strangers merry by murmur-
ing ut evils that do not exist and repninr
at grievances which they do not really
feel.
The fountain Of content must spring
up Ill the mind; and he who has so little
knowledge of human nature us to seek
happiness by changing anything but
his own disposition, will waste his life
in fruitless efforts and multiply the g,icfs
which he purposes to remove.

tain i'll one of the royal burial grounds.
1t impressed us rs though VIC were in tho
presence of actual death and VIC instinc-
lively spoke i'll whispers.
When the doctor was tired he turned
the body over to the woman, who mado
certain passes over 1t, and slowly and
terribly the old man rcgaincd his senses.
That ended this performance, the like of
which | never personally saw cqualcd
The old man was said to he the only
member of this particular party who
could throw himself into this trance, if 1
may so call it, and his wife wns the only
one who had power to bring him to life.
Without her help he would remain in
that condition for an indefinite pcriod.
Some of the natives claimed that he could
sleep that drcamlcss sleep for centuries
anil then be brought 10 life. However
that may he, he would undoubtedly re-
main unconscious until death really came
to him unless some powerful agent re-
called his dormant senses

of which he vouchcd for. This is the
Colcncl's story:
In 1877, l think he said, II party of
fatirs, possibly the same ones had seen,
Tor their description Tailed closely with
that of my acquaintance, visited the Colo
ncrs quarters and gave I'M exhibition of.
their almost supcrhuman powers. The
old man threw himself while in Il sitting
or rather squatting position into trance,
and his assistants proceeded 10 place his
tongue far back in his mouth. Then
they swathcd his body with bandages, ms
mummy is prepared for the tomb. They
illlcd his eyes, ears, mouth and nostrils
with paste and bandagcd his fncc and,
neck, arms and chest, as they Ind done
the lower part of his body. When this
was done Inc was turned over To the Colo
mel. Mind you, all this had been done
III the presence of the Colonel and his
officers. There was and could be no ,lc-
ccption i'll it.
The Colonel had had deep hole dug
in the barrack-yard, and into this he
placed the bandagcd Inkir, after first
putting him into box, shcathcd with
metal md Theoretically sealed. Tho
earth WINS spread over this box and the
grave was placed under the guard of II
squad Of soldiers. Every second of the
time, day and night for forty days, tho
grave was under guard. The box could
not have been mcddicd with byany human
being and have escaped detection. At
the end of that period the box was cx-
humcd and opened, the body was I'M
swathcd and n woman brcathcd upon its
face, and passed hcrhands over his limbs,
and, precisely us have described before,
the man came to life, apparently none
the worse Tor his long burial. How much
longer he could have remained under

know is he certainly was buried and re-
manned there forty days without air, food
