THE DEVILS DANCE.

A Peculiar Ceremony That Used to Be
Characteristic of Western Africa.
The ghost dance is one of the remin-
iscences of days gone by. It was intro
duced on the western coast of Africa,
says the New York Advertiser, by the
inhabitants of Loongi, the capital of
Bullion. This religious ceremony was
performed on the premises of the chief
of the tribe.
The spectators formed a circle around
the devil, to whose head was fastened
that of an alligator. His body was
wound with long reed-grass. Arrayed
In this fashion he jumped about in the
most grotesque manner.
But when he tumb1ed or fell in his
gyrations it was considered an evil
sign, prognosticating sure death. The
devil danced to the dismal tune of
drums, beating the time with his foot.
The women sung plaintive wall, to
which they clapped their hands. At the
beginning of the ceremony the assem-
blage was quiet and orderly, but they
soon grew wild w oh fanaticism.
A large bonfire was started, which
threw a fantastic glare over the CHASTITY
scene, and the impression made upon a
foreign visitor by this gruesome spec
tacle was by no means pleasant one.

HISTORY Ar FAULT.
Robert Morris Did Not Die In a Debtors'
Prison,

Robert Morris Did Not Die In n Debtors'
Prison.
1t is probable that American history,
SO far as it relates to Robert Morris,
signer of the declaration of indepen-
dence, the companion financier of Ham
lton and Gallatin, whose management
of the finances of the country made the
success of the revolution possible and
enabled the young nation to get on its
feet and live, will have to be remodeled.
Every schoolboy knows, says the
Philadelphia Inquirer, that the cele-
brated Philadelphia patriot was born in
England, became wealthy man in
Philadelphia by his business ability,
sacrificed his wealth to his country,
died in debtors prison on account of
unfortunate land speculations, and was
buried in Christ ehurch-yard. 1t is
known that he furnished the one mil
lion five hundred thousand dollars
which enabled Washington to carry out
his successful campaign against Corn
| wallis Several years ago congress ap-
propriated money to reimburse the
heirs of Mr.. Morris for this one million
! five hundred thousand dollars with in
terest, the whole amounting to nearly
eight million dollars.
The search for heirs and their Gre
dentials has brought to light the i'm
portant fact that Mr.. Morris did not die
in 1905 in Philadelphia's debtors
prison, but lived in 1926 on farm
! near Farmingdale, N. j., where he was
\ attended by Mary Hurley, his grand
| daughter, who is herself alive at the
age of ninetyfour and lives with her
| granddaughter at Toms River, N. j.
Mrs. Hurley, despite her advanced age,
is in full possession of her faculties.
She remembers her grandfather per-
fectly. He was blind during the last
part of his life. He often spoke to her
of George Washington, of the great
struggle for liberty, and the part he
| (Morris) took in it. He was, it is
thought, allowed to escape from debt
ors' prison by some sympathetic keeper
who remembered his great service to
his country and took this way of show
ing his appreciation.
Mrs. Hurley had Bible which was
printed in Hartford, Conn.,, in 1910, in
which her grandfather wrote his name.
1t is almost an exact fac simile of that
attached to the declaration of indie.
pendence. Experts who have examined
the two signatures say they were I'M
doubtedly written by the same person
He was buried in Leedsville, N. ]. Mr.
Morris has many descendants in this
| vicinity.

''but the other day a woman managed

''The woman seized upon it and sat
down and began to pore over it. The
assistant supposed she was going to

asked if she might copy part of it.
''The assistant is long-suffering, and
he said Certainly She thereupon
asked If he would lend her piece Of
paper, That lend was dainty piece
of euphemism, and he handed over a
frst-class pad to write on.
'"Then she modestly begged for a
pencil, and when he had produced a
brand new one she sat down and copied
every word of the recitation from be-
ginning to end. When she had finished
she gathered herself up, and without a
word walked off with her copy and the
assistants new pencil!''

She dealt my heart O blow from which
