The Fetish Man Abroad.


When abroad the fetish man is al
wavs a conspicuous figure in a village.
He wears tall hat of animal skin,
around his neck hang suspended by
strings a few small specimens of his
wares. and slung around his shoulders
are little parcels of charms, into which
are stuck birds feathers. Metal rings,
to which mysterious little packages are
attached, clash and clang as he walks
serving, together with liberal supply
of iron bells fastened to his person, to
announce the Nganga's presence; and
as if his body did not offer a sufficient
surface to display all his magical outfit
he carries, slung over his left shoulder
in a woven pocket, load of wonder
working material.
A peep into fetish mans sack dis
closes a curious assortment of prevent
ives-eagles' claws and feathers, fish
bones, antelope horns, leopard teeth,
tails and heads of snakes, flint stones,
hairs of the elephants tail, perforated
stones different colored chalks, eccen-
tric shaped roots, various herbs, etc.
There are sufficient reasons for his
carrying these with him; If he left
them in his village some one might steal
them, and, again, provided as he is, he
can administer at moments notice to
suffering humanity some devil proof
mixture. E. j. Glave in Century.

A Clever Little BOY.

The gopher only remains few sec

a knowledge of this habit of theirs, a
little boy, eight years old, who was lost
for ten days in the prairies of AsSini-
boia, l50 miles north of the Canadian
Pacific railroad line, in 1856, was able
70 save his life. The boy wore lace
boots, with leather laees, and used to
spread a moose made with a bootlaee
over a hole when he had seen q gopher
20 I'M he would then lie down aud

FARMERS ALLIANCE.
INDIANAPOLIS, Nov. 20.-The net
results Of yesterdays session of the
fnmers' organization are that the
Peoples party has captured the
Alliance, aud the Alliance has split
on the sub. treasury scheme. The
document Of the sub-treasury men
earnestly protests against any action
If tue supreme council that pur-
poses 10 commit the Farmers Alli-
ance aud Industrial union to the
proposition that provision be made
by the federal congress for govern
ment loans Of money to individual
citizens upon farm mortgages as
security, or to a demand for govern
ment NV Dership or control Of rail-
road property and transportation.
These schemes it declares uncOnsti-
tuiional, inpracticable, conflicting
with the spirit of the Alliance
movement, and tending to govern
ment paternalisn. Instead of relief
from present oppression, the meas
ures promise greater evils, being
partial to certain classes involving
business details too deep for the
average farmer. The attendant ex-
pense would make the market price
of money higher and open an ave
nue. for sharpers to trade upon the
farmers hard earned goods and
products. Markets would be over
loaded with produce, putting down
the value OF commodities and rais-
ing taxation.
At the joint meeting last night of
the Alliance and +. NJ. b. A., the
third party movement was endorsed,
amid the widest enthusiasm. The
f. b. NJ. A. elected s. S. Agauzo of

JETTY AT COOS BAY.


PORTLAND, Or, Nov. 20.-Work
on the north jetty at Coos bay is
proceeding rapidly. The assistant
engineer, who is In charge of the
work. is J. s. Polhemus. About
forty men have been employed since
the work commenced in April, and
about 1000 feet Of pi!ing has been
done, and the rock work has been
completed to about half this distance.
The entire project is to be built out
much further. No work on piling
will be done on the end Of the jetty
during the winter. The appropria-
tions asked for amount TO $1,000, 900,
as modified from the original 81, 1885,
900. A jetty will be constructed al
the south side of the entrance also,
but work on that has not been com
menced. The appropriation for this
year Amounted to $l25, 600, aud If all
that is asked for is gwen by congress,
the work can be finished in year
or more, Already the jetty is 1900
feet in length, aud has accomplished
much good. Two months ago there
was but fourteen feet OF water on the
bar. Now there is depth of twenty
feet at high water. The jetty has
stopped up several small chanaels
running to the north. The idea is
to have u channel twenty feet in
depth at low water, Several times
when the Wilmington was on the
Coos bay route, months ago, she
struck when crossing over in rough
weather.
