THE VOODOO MAN.

His Weird Powers of Subsection Exer-
| cised Over a Lunatic Pugilist.
Qne of the two persons concerned
was colored man, terribly de-
formed person, southern man, and
therefore possessed of all the voo-
doc superstitions of his race in that
particular quarter of the country.
The other man was also colored, an
ex-prizefghter, who, like others of
his calling, was also possessed of
superstitious beliefs The deformed
man was the first to be brought into
the room, and when he had been
there but a few minutes he began to
go through all sorts of lamentations
of the voodoo character. His out
stretching of hands, his gesticula-
lions, waving of arms, rolling of
eyes, gyrations of body and his
words of ceremony as he called upon
his gods to do this and to do that
were impressively weird and
strange. While he was in the midst
OF that ceremony by which he
claimed that he could control the
elements and cause rain or shine,
the prizefghter was brought in. He
was wild and almost uncomfortable
He was manacled to prevent him
from doing injury to himself and
others. Hardly had he entered the
room when his eyes fell upon the |
deformed colored man going through
his ceremony of voodooism. He
stopped, looked straight at the col
ored man, and in an instant was
quiet. At the same moment the col
ored man saw him, and at that in
slant was illustrated the power of
over the human mind |
though it be clouded by an affliotion
that has robbed it Of it's power of
ordinary reasoning
The two men gazed at each other
steadily for few moments, the col.
ored man then crouching low, adj
vanced, and as he neared the other
colored man began anew his incan-
tat1ons. He waved his hands, rolled
his eyes, moved his body to and fro
and uttered words that were unin-
Jelllg1ble. AS he neared the other
nan that creature began to tremble,
us eyes fairly stood out of their
and he began to sink to-
ward the floor He was evidently
overcome by the sight of the de-
ormed colored voodoo man and was
'eady to fall upon his knees and
Worship him, but the lamentations
we're too much for him, and before
he deformed man had concluded
us words the other man had sunk
o the floor and was in almost a
amt. The attendants, who had +.
'een watching the performance, j
e1zed the prizetighter and lifted
nm to chair, and there he Law in

etormed voodoo backed away from 1

Every Week in the Year

For more than two years the Popularity
of the personally conducted tourist car
service to. California via the Northwest
ern Line'--C. st. p. NJ. & o. Ry, and con-
nections-has been shown by the appreci.
alton and patronage of travelling public.

in capacity of conductor, in addition to
the regular uniformed porter, accompan-
les the car from Minneapolis and st. Paul
to Los Angeles and return. This is the
distinctive feature of the trip that is APP
preciated; for ladies travelling alone or
with children, family parties, the aged
and int1rm, can make the trip without any
petty Inconvenience usually attendant
upon such long ride; for this conductor
acts as guide to passengersin the fullest
sense; seeing that they are correctly tick
eted and baggage properly checked; also
explaining the many interesting points
enroute, making your trip both pleasant
and profitable.

zimmerman Tells His Story of How
Henninger Beat Him.

The case of r. L. Henninger was
called in the Police Court yesterday for
battery on V. B. Zimmerman. and he
pleaded guilty.
zimmerman testified that he was in
his back garden spading, when he heard
MS little daughter screaming, and went
out IN fronUto see what was the mat
ter. He saw his little girl running away.
While Henningers little son was run
nlng after her with dog. He slapped
at the dog as it passed, and then went
back to his work
Henninger soon came in and asked
him What he struck his dog for. and he
told him. Henninger then accused him
OF abusing his children and said he
would beat his head off Zimmerman
said Henninger struck him with his fist.
and then beat him over the head with
his club.
Henninger admitted going into the
yard and striking Zimmerman, but de-
MED that he had any club with him. He
said Zimmerman had used vile language

WARNING TO BICYCLISTS.
Bells Must be Ruug at Every Street
Crossing.

The Capital City Wheelmen's Club
was last evening requested by the po-
lice department to notify all its mem
bers and other wheelmen that every
rider who fails to ring his bicycle bell
at each street crossing at night will be
arrested, unless he carries lantern on
his wheel
There is an ordinance requiring that
either lanterns shall be carried or bells
rung at street crossing at night, but it
has been ignored by general consent.
Said prominent wheelman last even
ing:
The truth is, there is more danger of
collisions from the ringing of bells than
otherwise.
"A person crossing a street becomes
confused on hearing a half-dozen or
more bells in as many different direc-
lions, and before he gets through with
his wild attempts at lodging he has
bumped against somebody's wheel.
People who ride bicycles these days are
generally expert enough to avoid col
lisions with pedestrians. and there sell
dom are colliSions-only when some wild
youth goes dashing along at unlawful
speed.
IF the pedestrian will pursue the
even tenor of his way, and not go to
lodging, hating or ziz-zaging when he
sees a wheelman coming, the wheelman
will look out for himself, and there will
be no collision. But when the air is
full of tinkling bells and people attempt
to dodge them, then there is liable to be
trouble.
Somebody has made mistake in
digging up the old ordnance"

SLAVERY ABOLISHED.
The Sultan of Zanzibar Issues a De-
cree to That Effect.

ZANZIBAR, April 5.-The Sultan of
Zanzibar has issued a decree abolish
ing slavery. 1t provides that existing
rights over concubnes shall remain as
before, unless her freedom is claimed
by a corcubine on account of cruelty
but in general terms the concubines
will be regarded as wives. The Gov
eminent Will pay compensation for all
slaves legally held. If Zanzibar is I'M
able to meet the full expense, it is be-
lieved that the Imperial Government
will assist.
The Sultan explained the decree to
leading Arabs before issuing it, on the
theory that the compensation and ha
rem clauses would reconcile them to
the measure. No resistance is expect
ed, as the Arabs have been completely
cowed by the recent bombardment. It
is feared, however, that the revenues
will suffer.
