HUNTING FOR HEADS.

Natives of Borneo Prize Skulls as the
Indians Prize Scalps.
Very Rev. Thomas Jackson. project
apostolic of L-ebauna aud Northern Bor-
neo, says: The natives of Borneo
are divided into innumerable tribes,
averaging thirty to forty families each.
They wear little or no clothing, the
general garb being q brecch cloth tied
about their loins. Away back in. the
interior is Il tribe that the natives call
orangoutangs. who live like monkeys,
subsisting on roots and fruit, 1t was
among these people Darwin hoped TO
find his missing link, and had a party
of explorers among them for many
months.
The natives are, without eScep-
ton, hcad-hunters. This practice is
similar to the scalp-talSingo of the Amor
lean Indians. and their long, low
houses are decorated with skulls OF
men they have slain. | seldom went
into a house that did not contain from
forty to fifty skulls strung about, Not
long before I left the island a large
party returned from an expedition
against neighboring tribes and brought
with them nearly five hundred heads.
1t is almost impossible to stop the
practice. 1t is for the young brave
who has the greatest number of heads
that the savage maiden has the sweet
est smile, and he who has none or few
is considered worthless"

Sioux Falls Press: Horace Beach who

sian well expert has written 10 tie Huron
Huronite regarding what he has discor-
cred concerning the great arttsiaG basin.
He says he thinks the basin extends west
ward and northwara under the Missouri
river to the foot hills, and that although
in 1883 he visited the james valley and ex-
amined somewhat the suhtaTranaln dc
posits Of water, he then had no idea Of
the enormous supply which his reeantin
S%estigations demonstrate actually exists.
He says that tlia country is nnderiail

Did you over notice that a hot wind
never comes until the ground and all
vegetation is parched from a long
drought? Did you ever notice that aftel
two or thTece rains in close succession
that there was q dew fall for several
nights. If you ever lived within the
vicinity of the Great Lakes OF have spent
any considerable time near Il large body of
inland water, did you ever know a hot
wind to come from over that body of
water? II you were a resident of South
Dakota in 1883 do you recall the heavy
deWs Of that summer, and do ycu remem-
Der of any hot winds occurring that year?
While THE heavy rains OF 1898 may
have been due to other causes, it is a
scientific fact we will defy anyone to dis
pute that the heavy dews and cool nights
and the absenc G Of hot winds wa due to
the great number OF small lakes that COW
cred the country from u end to the
other. 1t would be a queer theory, then,
that would hold that filling the lake
beds with water again, with artesian
wells or otherwise, would not bring a
recurrence OF the climatic conditions OF
the years mentioned.
