with costly gems, is the unique baublr
Of warfare that has come into the DOS
session of the imperial army of Ber-
lin. As valuable acquisition to the
armament of the kaiScr's own sOlde ry
this unique tield-piece is more interest
irg than terrible. No other armory
i'll the world can boast of field cannon
so beautiful or costly. This singular
gun was presented to the Berlin army
by the managers of the Hamburg mu-
scum, in whose keeping it has been
for two centuries. Guns of this sol :
are not produced to-day, and a war is
made with cannon that are more etTec-
tive in their destructive powers thau
pleasing to the aesthetic taste. The
outward appearance of this monster
jewel is most delicate in workmanship.
1t is valued at e 5000, though, as a mat
ter of fact, l., could not bn purchased
for twice that amount of money. The
lVeliest interest in this marvellous mill
tary engine "aS been evinced bv En-

This Is Evidently the Beginning of a
New Epoch.

Elected Judge Barrett Is Presi-
dent-The Meeting Last
Evening.

Preliminary to the Bible meeting at
the Crittenton services yesterday there
was a meeting of those interested in
the Florence mission to be established
in Butte. There was a good attend
ance Of subscribers and others. The
following trustees were elected: Judge
A. H. Barrett, George Stevenson, II. M.
Patterson, o. Hight, Rev. E. ]. Greene
weld. Rev. ]. H. Spencer and James
Davidson. At a meeting of the trus-
tees Judge Barrett was elected presi-
dent; Mr.. Davidson, vice president: Mr..
Stevenson. secretary; Rev. Mr.. Greene
weld, treasurer. Articles of incorpora-
ton were filed during the afternoon.
At the Bible meeting there was
larger attendance. Mr.. Crittenton
spoke from the 91st psalm: He that
dwelieth in the secret place of the most
high shall abide under the shadow of
the Almighty" and Mr.. Carpenter fol-
lowed with an exhortation. In the
evening the Auditorium was filled
again. 1t seems quite plain that a new
epoch in the religious life of Butte has
begun with these meetings. Mr.. Wal
lace's solo tonight was Beautiful
Reckoning Hands" Mr.. Carpenter
was the speaker of the evening and
took his text from jeremiah 1875. IF
thou hast run with the footmen. and
they have wearied thee. then how
canst thou contend with horses? And
IL in the land of peace, wherein thou
trustedst they wearied thee, then how
wilt thou do in the swelling of Jor-
dam"
The stern logic OF the text was
brought out very clearly and its APP
peal came close home to men. We

There is not one in any of the places
of sin in this city tonight whose heart
does not often grow sad. Many a one
on the stage smiles at the audience,
burt has a heavy heart. There is no
hope at the end of the race in which
they are running. II costs everything
to enter upon the broad road that leads
to destruction; character. happiness.
all that is truly good must go. The
eternal woe that is at the end of II was
prepared for the devil and his angels.
Jesus said. God never meant " for
men. Some of you are on the last quar-
ter now. One day you will kiss the
dear ones at home and take the train
and go down into the mine and will
not come home again. Shall they know
that you have gone home to heaven or
must they be without hope concerning
you? Where will your race end. There
is one home which death cannot break
up. There will be no partings in
heaven. Take Christ with you here
and there will be nothing to fear In the
swelling of Jordan. Some of you have
been running a good many years away
from Jesus Come back to him now.
At the conclusion of the sermon
Messrs." Wallace and Firch sang "Open

signed This afternoon there will be
a meeting at o'clock for all ladies who
are interested in forming a rescue

Revolving Customs of Some of the African
Cannibal Tribes.

Revolving Customs of Some of the African
Cannibal Tribes.
The cannibaliSm Of ,he black secret
society known as the Human Leopards
in the country near Sierra Leone brings
forcibly before US the difference between
the east African and west African Eab-
its Of eating human flesh. The Sherbo
cannibals waylaid and killed their VIC
Tins and afterward feasted on their
flesh. The cannlbalism Of the east coast
is Of very different kind. The flesh Of
the old people-the grandfather and
grandmother of family-is dried and
mixed with condiments, and a portion
of this is offered. with a dim sort Of
sacramental meaning, to travellers who
become guests Of the family. To refuse
it would be a deadly insult. To accept
it is passport to the privileged position
Of friend Of the house. Many of our
travellers in east Africa have eaten thus
sacramentally Of the ancestors Of some
dark skinned potentate.
The cannibalism of the west coast is
of a more horrible kind, connected with
fetichism, the worst developments OF
which are peculiar to that country. But
there is a hideously genuine appetite for
fresh human flesh still existing among
the negroes Of west Africa. This canui.
balism manifests itself iii a refinement
Of gluttony which has its mild analogy
in the tastes of Europeans. Young boys
are bought from the dark interior, kent
ia pens, fattened upon bananas and fin
ally killed and baked. To these Thyes-
team feasts come not only the savage
chiefs Of the interior, but also, il -
whispered, black merchants from the
coast. Men who appear at their places
of business in English territory in broad
cloth and tail hats, who ape the man
ners Of their white masters, are said to
disappear annually into the interior,
where, we are told, they might be seen
in naked savagery taking part in the
banquets on plump boys, in which they
delight
Be this as it may, somehow the native
Of the west coast and its Hinterland is
unlike the East or South African native
in the deep lying saya5eTy and the ex-
traorlinary facility for returning to II
which are his leading and very unpleas-
ant characteristics. The subject claims
the attention of the anthropologist, and
certainly suggests ii curious reason for
questioning the relationship of the black
man and the ape or the gorilla, seeing
that the race Of monkeys seems to be
singularly free from anything like can
nibalism. London Saturday Review.
