A Fetish Man.

The fetish man under any name is the
authority on all matters connected with
relations of man to the unseen. He is the
exorciser of spirits, the maker of charms,
and the prescriber and regulator of all Ger
emonial rites. He can discover who "ate
the heart" of the chief who died but yes
terlay, who it was who caused the canoe
to upset and give three lives to the croco-
dile and the dark waters of the Congo, or
even who blighted the palm trees of vii
lage and dried up their sap. causing the
supply of malafu, or palm wins, to cease,
or drove away the rain from district and
withered its fields of nguba (greund nuts).
All this is within the ken of the Nganga
Nkisi, and he is appealed to on all these
occasions to discover the culprit by his in
sight into the spirit world, and hand him
or her over to the just chastisement of an
outraged community. This is the only
substitute for religion that. the African
savage possesses. Its tenets are vague and
unformulated, for with every tribe and
every district belief varies and rites and
ceremonies are as diverse as the fancies of
the fetish men who prescribe them.-E. j.
Glave in Century.

You Don't Tire Of Them.

There are people of whom one never
tires, no matter how often one sees them
nor how intimate the associations may
be. There is about them that air Of per-
petual charm and variety that makes
them delightful companions. They are
sure to be good tempered. There is never
any fear Of finding them in a pet, nor a
prey to some i'll humor wholly unreason-
able and unexplainable.
They are pleased when you are pleased
and interested in what you have to say.
They are SO sympathetic that your ills
and troubles become their own, and your
friends become so dear to them that not
for the world would they do anything to
rob you of them. Sometimes with these
bright, sweet natures you find the added
charm of originality, and when you come
across such one treasure it and preserve
it as one Of the pearls of your life, for
seldom indeed are talent, originality and
good nature found combined in one NOR
tai frame. A nature that is so richly
endowed is threefold talented. It has
the talent of magnetism, the talent of
keeping good natured and the priceless
talent of originality, which, as Rudyard
Kipling says, is not the discovery of any
thing new, but is rather a new way of
looking at old things. And that makes
it all the more delightful.-New York
World.

Tea Drinking,

The custom of tea drinking is as old
as the Chinese empire, and as early as
7S0 A. D. duty was levied on the tea
that grew wild on the Chinese mount
aims. But it is within two centuries
that its use was adopted by the English,
when the East Tea company imported it
and it was sold at $25 pound. Its use
was confined to the royal household. In
the reign of Henry VII a refreshment
consisting of tea and cakes was called a
voide.
On the occasion of the marriage din
ner of Katharine of Arragon and Arthur,
prince of Wales, the court chronicler
wrote: ''The evening refreshment called
voide was brought in by fourscore earls,
barons and knights, walking two and
two. Ipocras and comfits were offered.
One noble servitor presented the golden
spice plate, second the cups, while a
third of lower rank filed the cups from
golden ever"
Since then what Washington Irving
calls the ''motherly teapot" has become
power in the world.-Detroit Free
Press.

When eight Quaker ladies had an ap-
pointment, and seven were punctual, and
the eighth, being three minutes too late,
began apologizing for keeping the others
waiting, the reply from one of them was:
~ am sorry, friend, that thee should
have wasted thine own three minutes; but
thee had no right to waste twenty-one
more of our time, which was not thine
own"
OF Washington it is said that when his
secretary, on some important occasion,
was late, and excused himself by saying
his watch was too slow, the reply was:
"You will have to get another watch or
another secretary"
Napoleon used to say to his marshals:
"You may ask anything of me but
time. New York Ledger.

The First Woman,

By the way, speaking of Eve, why is
not her name, in its English and Bible
form, bestowed upon more little girls?
Eva is common enough; it is simply the
Latin form of the name. No doubt
parents often bestow it in this form
without thinking that they are naming
daughter for the naughty mother of
all mankind, whose mortal taste" for
green fruit brought death into the world
and all our woe. But this is an age of
rehabilitation, and Eve has been pretty
thoroughly rehabiltated in character
herself. A great many really good wo-
men are not so sure but they would have
done just the same as she did under the
same circumstances. But whether or
not Eve has been vindicated or needs
vindication she had a very pretty name.
Bestowed upon girl. or woman, and
without any final AUST plain Eve-no
name could, be more charming. Boston

BurgIars' Weanons.

Over 100 tools and processes, which are
marvels of ingenuity and scientific
knowledge, have been invented by safe
burglars. A recent burglars outfit capt
ured by the police consisted of little
giant knob breaker, diamond drill and
high explosive of the nature of dyna-
mite, but put up in the form of pow
der. 1t would open the strongest bank
safe in half hour, and without noise
enough to disturb people in the next

carried in the pockets of an ordinary
coat.-Rochester Democrat.

been looted, everything they contained
being carried of. The stuff taken,
which comprised the entire stock in

must have been loaded into wagons and
driven into the deep woods surrounding
the place. From thence the thieves evil

CASE OF NATURAL EXPLOITATION.
A Tennessee Woman Whose Bones Eject
Themselves from Her Body

A Tennessee Woman Whose Bones Eject
Themselves from Her Body.
BRISTOL, Tenn, Sept. e8.-Dr. B. F.
Bell, of Patriotsville, Tenn, read before
the East Tennessee Medical society a
paper on wonderful case of exfoliation,
or the election Of bones from the human
body. The victim of the peculiar dis
ease is a lady named Sarah Eeas, II
years of age. residing in Caney Branch.
About twenty one years ago the doctor
was first called to his patient and since
that time he has given her ailment close
attention. During all these years more
than six hundred bones have been ex-
PEELED from different parts of Miss Heas'
body. This exfoliation, Doctor Bell
said, has taken place without pain and
inflammation and after the election
of bones sores would quickly heal.
The disease first began in the index
finger of her left hand. Every bone in
that hand disappeared and new ones
took their places. The doctor said the
process worked so rapidly that he had
sat near the patient many times and
watched the bones as they came out
without any assistance except that of
nature itself. Some Of them were six
inches in length and one inch in dame
ter, while others Were smaller. They
were of every conceivable shape. When
the doctor. presented them to the frater-
nifty for examination it appeared to be
the contents of an unearthed coffin.

Fast Approaching a Crisis,

MONTREAL, Sept. 27.-An the govern.
ment officers have been suspended on ac-
count of the breach between Lieutenant
Governor Anglers and Premier Mercier,
and the political affairs in the province
are fast approaching crisis. 1t is more
than probable that serious trouble will
ensue. The French newspapers are
infaming the people with vehement
Pronunciation. They declare that the
pressure from Ottawa to force MERCER
out of the political field will be resented,
and the threats Of annexation to the
United States that are heard On all sides
show in what direction they will seek to
offset Anglers.

GRAND RAPIDS, Mimi, Sept. 2S.-It Is
learned that a most destructive storm
passed over the northern part Of this
and Beltrami counties, telling an i'm
mense amount of pine timber, and with
out doubt attended by loss Of life. The
particulars are impossible to get, owing
to the remotensss of the section. A
whole township Is known to have been
swept over, the timber Being leYeled as
grain before the reaper.
Ono man, who has reached here, re-
ports an almost marvellous escape, and
says the chief of surveying party was
struck by tree and died while being
removed. Several United States survey
ing parties were at work 10 the region
devastated. --.---.-...--.
If half that IL reported is true, there
mas been a damage to pine timber
amounting to many thousands Of dol
lars, and if it is not Immediately cat .
loss Of hundreds of Thousands as near as
can be- estimated. The center Of the
destruction was thirty to forty miles
this side of the boundary line and i'm
mediately north Of this place.

Dsstroyed-Several EIrsmen Injured.
MINNEAPOLIS, Sept. s5.-During the
progress of the FIRE at l'inth avenue and
Third street In this city, an accident
occurred in which several freraen were
injured, two perhaps fatally. The main

twenty-five or thirty, were fighting the
flames from the roof Of the elevator an
nex-a wooden addition on the Yves side
of the elevator proper. Suddenly there
broke forth from the windows in the side
and end of the annex terrible volumes
of black, binding smoke. The men
then appreciated their danger, but not
to the full extent, for beneath them was
a great furnace Of fire. This broke
through q moment later, when the men
were almost snveloped in smoke. As
these terrific flames burst forth from
the end and side the men made

A dozen or more made for one ladder,
and in their excitement and the pres

went to the ground below, some thirty
feet. Some of the cooler heads hurried
down the ladder, some others appeared
to leap from the roof, others were hurled
of the roof by men who came rushing
wildly from behind, perhaps half blinded
with smoke. The most seriously injured
were Assistant Chief Canterbury and
William Mitchell, with chances against
their recovery. Many of the others
were severely burned and bruised and
several were internally injured. It was
5 o'clock before the fire was under con=
troll, having burned Elevator c, Moore

and several dwellings, causing total
loss of about $3.50, 900.
