FORCED TO CANNIBALIsAr.
Robb ed by Enemies, a Tribe Eats
Its Children.

LONDON. June IA letter from
CaIlabar, on the west coast of Africa,
gives an account of a horrible case Of
cannibaIism in the district of Bayong. a
short distance in the interior. II appears
that the inhabitants of the village of Aro,
in that region, having been reduced to
terrible destitution by the raids of a
neighboring tribe, compelled every
family among them to give up one child
to be killed for food. This horrible bus
mess had been going on for two weeks be-
fore the news Of the condition of affairs
reached Callabar. The traders there at
once sent provisions free of any cost to
the unfortunate town, many of whose
inhabitants were found to have per-
ished of hunger. Those who were able
to be removed have been taken to
friendly villages near the coast, severed
fIom their former enemies.

ment in force, and cautioning citizens

above was carried to completion with
degree of speed without precedent in

the cable has been relied upon to an un-

assist the three revenue cutters in the
task of driving off the poaching sealing
vessels. 1t will be noticed that the
agreement authorizes the United States
vessels to seize offending British yes
sells, which. however, are to be turned
over to the British authorities for trial.
and this feature of the agreement is ex-
pected to prove of great value in the
pressing emergency that is held to exist

to discuss with the dominion authorI-
ties matters Of greatimportance at pres
ent pending between the central gov
ernment and that of the province. One
question that he proposes to discuss is
that of sealing, and the manner in
which British Columbia interests will
be affected under the new sealing
law which has Just passed the British
house of commons. To interfere with
sealers, this year would Mr.. Robson
holds. be ruinOuS. Some of the schOon-
ers owned in Victoria are already in
Behring sea; others are on their way
thither, and all have been fitted out at
great expense, which will be utterly
lost were they interfered with in the
way proposed this season. Another
important subject, Mr.. Robson said, is
the settlement of the Alaskan bound
ary, and the disposition of a long strip
of territory by the seashore, in regard
to which the dominion, if not the PROV
inee, should have something to say.

Uses Of Hot Water.

Hot water is one of the best among
the simple remedies. For instance,
headache almost always yields to
the simultaneous application of hot
water to the feet and back OF the
neck.
A towel folded several times and
dipped in hot water, and quickly
wrung out and applied over the
toothache or neuralgia, will .gener-
orally afford prompt relief.
A strip of flannel or napkin folded
lengthwise and dipped in hot water,
wrung out and then applied round
the neck of child that has Group
will sometimes bring relief in ten
minutes.
Hot water taken freely half an
hour before bed time is helpful in
the case of constipation, and has q
soothing effect upon the stomach
A goblet of hot water taken just
after rising, before breakfast, has
cured thousands Of indigestion, and
no simple remedy is more widely
recommended by physicians to dys'
peptics.-Ladies' Home journal.

Society in Calcutta.

A funny story concerning the
"Upper Ten" of Calcutta has got
abroad. It is to this effect: A lady
called at house, sent up her card,
was admitted, paid the usual visit,
and enjoyed the usual amount of
small talk with the lady Of the
house. Returning home, she in
formed her husband where she had
been, when that distinguished MEM
berof society at once wrote off to the
occupant of the house No.
street, saying that his wife had called
by mistake, and requesting the re-
turn of the card she had left on
visiting the lady of the said house.
The husband of the lady visited,
however, was equsl to the occasion,
for he replied that on returning
home and finding the card, he had
looked at his wife's visiting list,
and, not finding the name of the
visitor, he had torn up the card and
was, therefore, unable to return it.
