STRANGE CUSTOMS IN BORNEo.
An Explorer Finds Corpse a the Head of
His Red-A New Resource for Bait.

An Explorer Finds "a Corpse at the Head OF
His Bed-A New Resource for Bait.
Mr.. Charles Hose, during his recent
journey up the little-known Baram
river in northwestern Borneo, made
some interesting discoveries among the
natives. Early in his journey he spent
the night in native house. and it was
not until next morning that he discov-
cred at the head of his bed large box
which he had not noticed the night be-
fore, which proved to be a coffin. On
tanned the mortal remains of the chief
wife. He found that it was the custom
of these people to keep corpse in the
house for three months before bury
ing it.
When the body is removed to the hard
wood mansoleum prepared for it every
body sends one or more cigarettes made
of native tobacco to their dead rela-
tives in Hades. These cigarettes are
placed on the top of the coffin and
around it. If the deceased person is a
man, his weapons, tools, and small
quantity of rice. together with his
cooking pot, are put in the tomb. so
that he may continue his daily pur-
suits in the other world. If the body
is that of woman, large sun hat. a
little hoe used for cultivating the paddy
fields, her beads, earrings, and other
finery are buried with her body. so
that she may not be found wanting on
her arrival in the other world.
The brass or copper earrings are es-
pecially important, and weigh some
times as much as two pounds each.
The lobe of the ears are pierced when a
child is bout eight months old. and
earrings weighing two or three ounces
are hung in them. This weight gradu-
ally drags down the ear lobe to 4 great
length. Weights are added yearly as
the child grows. and by the time she
reaches maturity the ears reach her
breast. Mr.. Hose says he SAW girls
put their heads through these ear
lobeS.
The Shop tribe, further up the river,
are sllillful in the use Of the blow pipe.
and with this weapon they kin num-
bers of monkeys, from which the
Bezoar stones are obtained These
stones are highly priced by the Chi
nese. who are glad TO purchase them at
a high price They use them as Inedi-
cine for all kinds Of ailments. The
stones are said to ne found n the in.

monkey They are OF various sizes.

stones. about the size OF a hens egg.

Further MP the river Mr. Hoses party
wished to catch some fish. but they had
10 tackle. An ingenious Dyak pro-
dueed a piece of thread which he tied
on the end OF stick, aud with a small
piece OF brass wire which he bent into
a hook il began tdslook as if h.. meant

A MERRY-GO-ROUND.

l am sitting here watching ulerry-go-round.
The grandest that ever was seen
It centers Ii yonder horizon s DIN bound,
And it turns with rush, and rumbling sound
As gaze on its emerald sheen.
Come. larry with me: tits beautiful sight;
IT'S natures great gala display
The orchards aud groves wheel around in their
flight,
And fiji past our faces ike phantoms OF light,
Then circle away, and away
The meadows are coming all bright with the
bloom
OF orchid, and iris, and rue.
They fan Us with breat III of delicious perfume
And hasten away, as if to make room
For the htllsides appearing in view.
Al, there Is brooklet that fain would not go,
And backward is striving to fee.
Like a serpent disabled by merciless blow,
Ii winds its way slowly. and even more SLOW,
Til LOST in the lake by the lea
Yon husbandnasn, quite undisturbed By his ride
Flows On through the green growing maize
While that barefooted boy, on that old bay
astiGe,
Sits up like prince in the pink of his pride,
Returning our curious gaze.
And now a whole city comes laundering on,
With its mansions and monuments high:
A nurmur Of marts meets the ear and is gone.
And see, o the wonder-to look out upon
The dead III their graves rushing byl
Now faster, and faster and faster II gains
Ho Hear you that shrek of alarm
No, It's OF delight at the speed il attains,
Seel The trees like wild horses are sweeping
the plains,
There's not suspicion Of harm.
Oh, marvellous thing ia this merry-goround,
Have you seen it? No? Hardly can guess
What I mean: Well, indeed, it is easily found
BY just glancins out as you sit homeward
bound
Aboard Of tie lightning express

LOSS OF YHE SEA RANGER
Was WreckedOn Hidden Ledge in
the Northern Sea
SUNDAY FAIR ARGUMENTS
All Chicago Interested In the Case Now
Before the United States Court
of Appeal

PORT TOWNSEND, June 15-The
whaling bark Sea Ranger, Captain II.
Foley, Of San Francisco, was wrecked
May "A on hidden ledge three miles
west Of Kyak island, on the coast of
Alaska. The vessel and cargo, consist
ing Of train oil and whale oil, valued at
Sll 900, were a total loss. The crew
barely escaped from the sinking vessel
In time TO save their lives. The officers
and part Of the crew arrived from Sitka
this morning on the City of Topeka.
Particulars Of the disaster were related
by Captain Foley as follows: "James
Mckee, "a seaman, died May 20 when
becalmed nineteen miles from land. /
wore the ship in shore to land and bury
the corpse in Il place where the chart
indicated nineteen fathoms, when the
bark struck hidden rock and smashed
the keel. The vessel listed to port and
began rapidly ling, and ! hardly had
time to lower the boats and take the
corpse and crew ashore when she sunk
beneath the waves" After some diff
Guilty landing was made at the trad
ing post Of the Northern American
Commercial company on Kyak island
where the crew remained until taken
TO Sitka by the steamer Crescent City.
Twenty Of the crew are stranded at
Sitka and will endeavor to come south
on the next Alaskan steamer. A pOr-
tion OF the United States patrol fleet,
the Ranger, Mohlcan and Corwin, and
the British man-of-war Petrel, are at
Sitka awaiting orders before proceeding
to Bering sea.

Manlinoss of the Express

The editor Of the Bellingham Bay
Express has had the courage to come
out openly in condemnation Of the
fraudulent disposition Of the printing
contract, and In leading editorial last
evening gives stinging rebuke TO
Messrs. MallOy and Mcdaniel for their
unjust discrimination. The Express
justly condemns the commissioners in
the following language: "rhe public
has been robbed. You, as Republicans,
bring disgrace on our party. As county
commissioners you have violated your
trusts. As citizens you have lost the
respect Of men who credited you with
honor, fairness aud justice. IN the in
terest OF the taxpayers we propose tO
fight such rank Injustice. The Express
Is not mealy. Political platforms are
Yote-catching concerns. Such down
right public robbery calls for political
party with platform Of one plank
from which men who wilfully and
deliberately squander public money,
while holding public Office, should
be hung. Passion does not prompt
this statement. IL IL any wonder
discontent Is abroad in the land.
The Sherman bill Is not 10 blame fol
this outrage and robbery of the What
com county treasury. You, w. r.. Me
Daniel and w. j. Malloy, have deliber
ately and In a most barefaced manneI
robbed the taxpayers by awarding 4
contract To the teveile for 10 cent
per inch when the HERALD-WORLD, 1
solid, substantial, reputable paper
offered TO do it for 81 cents per inch
This is plain talk; IL is honest, straight
from the shoulder. in the interest o
the Taxpayers, published In IA papel
with nerve TO back It's opinions when II
believes 1t Is right, and fair enough 3,
