NEW STATIONERY STORE.
Wall-Nichols Company to Open on
December 1st.

On Decem Der 1st there will be
opened in the Republic block a
new stationery and music store.
Lucas Bros. are now engaged in
fitting up the store, which will be
arranged especially for that kind
of business. The new firm will be
known as the Wall-Nichols Com
pany, and will carry a full stock of
stationery and musical goods. Mr..
Nichols left by the Australia for
New York, where he will purchase
the latest novelties to be found in
the American metropolis. The
stock will include the largest vari-
ETY. of holiday goods ever brought
to the islands.
Mr.. Nichols has had years of ex-
perience in the business and en-
joys reputation of being among
the best judges and buyers of holt
day goods. The Wall boys, who
are interested in the new venture,
are well and favorably known to
the people Of Honolulu and the
other islands.

VARYING TASTES OF CANNIBALs
Horrible Practices in Africa De-
scrlbed to British Scientists.

LONDON, Sept. 22.-Captain S. l..
Hinde read a paper on "Some Can
nibals and Their Customs" before
the British Association, at Ipswich.
Captain Hinde has travelled for
years In the Congo basin, and had
wide opportunities for observing
the natives. He said that almost
all the races In the Congo basin
practice cannibalism, and though
In some parts it ia prevented by
the presence of white civilization,
In others it seems to be on the in
crease.
An extensive traffic In human
flesh prevails in many districts,
slaves being kept and sold as an ar
Gle of food. The different tribes
have various and horrible methods
of preparing the flesh for eating.
In some instances, before the death
of the victim-certain tribes Of the
Bangala race themselves acknowl-
edge-they break the arms and
legs of the victim and place the
body, thus mutilated and still liv-
ing, in water for two or three days,
on the supposition that this pre-
mortem treatment renders the flesh
more palatable.
There are distinct tribal prefer
ences for various parts of the body,
and it is remarkable that, contrary
to the generally-accepted theory,
the negro man-eater never eats
flesh raw. He takes human flesh
as food purely and simply, and not
from any religious or superstitious
reasons.
4 Worldwide discussion will be
aroused by a remarkable paper
read Thursday by Prof. Flanders
Petrie, the Psychologist He con-
demned, almost without reserva-
ton, all attempts to spread civiliza-
tion among the inferior races of the
world. He insists that the civiliza-
ton of any race is not a system
that can be changed at will, and |
continues:
1--WE may despotically force a
bald and senseless imitation of !
our ways on another people, but |
we shall only destroy their life |
without implanting any vitality in
its place. The change is not legit !
innate or beneficial to the real |
character of a people except when
it flows from conviction and nat
ural growth of mind. How miser-
able is the forcing of system such
as ours, which Is the most COM
pick, unnatural and artificial that
has been known. The result is
death. We make a death house
and call it civilization. Scarcely
single race can bear the burden,
and then we talk complacently
about the savages, before white
men.
"The general impression in Eng
land is that reading and writing
are the elements Of education.
They might be so to us, but they
assuredly are not so to other races.
The great essentials of valuable
character are moderation, justice,
sympathy, politeness and consider
alton, quick observation, shrewd-
ness, a keen sense of use and prop
critics of things. These may be
taught with the best results. There
is, therefore, a wide field for the
education of even the lowest races
without throwing a great strain on
their mental powers"
Professor Petrie made no direct
attack upon modern missionary eff
forts, bat the bearing of his remarks
is so obvious in this direction that
a storm of controversy will be ex-
cited.

Sisters Die IzO Years Apart.

Although it is difficult to be-
lieve, it is nevertheless true that the
death of two half sisters, daughters
of the same father, occurred ITO
years apart. The grandfather of
the British Minister, Charles
James Fox, Sir Stephen Fox, mar
ried in 1854, and had a daughter
born to him in 1866, who died in
the course of the same year. He
had several other children who
grew up and married, but all of
them died before their father and
without issue. Sir Stephen, not
wishing his large fortune to fall
into the hands of distant relatives,
married again at a very advanced
age, and his youngest daughter
was born in 1927. She reached
the age Of 9S years, and died in
1925, that is, 10 years after the
death of her oldest sister. She
saw Queen Victoria when the latter
was a child, while her half-sister
was carried in the arms of Oliver
Cromwell.-Chicago Chronicle.
