THE KODAK AS A DETECTIVE ne
reporters have recently discovered t"at
some of the railroads running into CHI
capo are making use of the kodak IS"
"spotter," says the Roiir0ad Gazette.
Railroads generally have rules which
state that employees shall not visit sa-
looms while on duty, and shall not ma; Q
them loafng pa ;es while OIL duty.
Heretofore it has been quite easy fuf Il
man, when accused by his superior OF
either of the foregoing failings, TO claim
that the informer was telling q false
hood for spite, or that it was case OF
mistaken identity. Now, however,
when man is called up" to see
''superp and attempts TO deny his FIRE
quent visits to saloons, and remarks
that the warning 10 keep away from
such places is uncalled for, he Is shown
a number of pictures of himself taken,
perhaps, in the very act OF bending his
elbow; he thinks it time TO give up.
Apparently there il great field open
ing for the camera, but care must he
taken to use more truthful ones than
the one used by the official photographs
er at the fair III taking photographs for
passes otherwise, when man is
shown what is claimed TO be his photo
graph there will be no proof but the
statement of the operator.
There are other uses to which the
camera may be put, a few of which may
be mentioned here 1t might be used TO
show how section men work just before
a train passes or just after it has passed,
aud when no trains are in Il hit also
to photograph the general offices when
the boss is in and when he is out.
But it is not necessary TO enlarge upon
this.

SAVAGE ISLANDERS.
They stni Indulge In Head Hunting and
Cannibal!sm.

A passenger from the solomon
Islands, one who has had some years
experience trading with the natives,
and who arrived recently at Sydney,
gives melancholy account of life
among the black fellows. One might
have thought that the days OF head
hunting were at an end, and that in
view of the commercial intercourse
which for many years has been car
ricd on between the whites and the
islanders of the Solomons, this bar
barous custom would have passed
with many others into history.
But it appears that quite the con-
trary is the fact. Head hunting is
openly carried on both at Malayta
and San Christoval, and the native is
regarded as young and inexperienced
by his fellows who has not shed hui
man blood.
Then, as to cannibalism, it is un-
doubted that it exists and is largely
practiced by certain tribes. The
custom is to cut up the bodies of the
victims and sell them piecemeal.
pretty much after the style of the
itinerant butcher, and evidence in
the shape of human bones left after
the cannibal feasts is abundant on
the islands.
To what fearful extent it is carried
on in the bush on Malayta or San
Christoval can only be conjectured
from what is absolutely known to
occur on the coast. 1t is said to be
more than white mans life is worth
to venture far inland, or for the
matter of that black fellows either,
if he belongs to q beach tribe, for the
''man of the BUSH is by no means
particular.
Why they tolerate a white mans
presence at all on their territory is
explained, apparently, by the fact
that they are fond of tobacco
and of few manufactured wares he
is in the habit of supplying them
with. He receives in return copra,
beche-de-mer or ivory nut, and the
intercourse is so far mutually salts
factory; but there are few, il any,
white men who would care to trust
themselves far away from their hut
or store without firearms, for, how
ever friendly the natives in the i'm
mediate vicinity may appear, there
are few to be implicitly trusted.
