Murderers uncaught suffer awful
agonies Of fear when alone with their
consciences, but when apprehended,
tried, convicted, sentenced and incar-
cerated they become callous to fear.
Jailers tell me this is the general rule.
There is an acquitted murderer in this
city, once a leading politician, who has
not been able to sleep alone In dark
room these % years. A light must be
kept burning and an attendant Is CON
stantly on guard. A Wall street bro
ker. who has done" every one of his
most faithful friends dares not go to
bed in the dark He keeps a light
burning In his room and one in the
hall, leaving the door open. In the
small hours of the morning he awak-

city man who is not afraid of the dark
est alleys, who will brave thugs and
stable gangs at any hour Of the night

Curious African Customs.

Among the human sacrifices Of the
delta of the Niger, says Count de
Cardi, young girls occupy the most
honored place. They are at regular
periods offered up to the gods, and In
stead of shrinking from this horrible
doom they accept It with pride and
gratitude. Nothing IS refused to these
girls while they are alive. If one of
them sees q handsome dress or orna-
ment ON a woman and expresses a de-
sire to have 1t, the woman must give 1t
to her. Men are also sacrificed. though
not for religious reasons, and they
welcome death as eagerly as the girls.
Count de Cardi once tried to save one
of these victims, but instead Of. thank
ing him, the man reviled him so bitter
ly for interfering and scolded the by
ISLANDERS 50 heartily for delaying to
carry out the sentence that they
promptly stopped his mouth by killing
him.
The worst insult which one woman
can offer to another is to hold out the
right hand in front of her with the in
dex and middle finger forming the let
ter " This means, You Will become
the mother of twins" When twins are
born In this region, they and their
mothers are killed, as rule, and when
mother dies in giving birth to a child
the latter is also killed and buried with
her. 1t is not superstition which Inn
pels the negroes to dispose of mother
less infants In this heartless fashion,
but the great difficulty of rearing them.
Altogether, the information which
Count de Cardi has gathered during
his residence of many years in this
portion of Africa is of rare value, espe-
cially to anthropologists.

Not very long since an exceedingly
well dressed man about 30 was charg-
ed in q north London court with being
drunk. He promptly paid his 10 shil-
lings' fine and went away. A fortnight
later a stylishly dressed woman was
charged with a similar offense. AS
she gave the same name and address |
concluded they were husband and wife.
So called on them, and my visit was
repeated several times. They had a
very nice home, kept two servants and
had four children. l noticed a bonny
lad of g. as | saw him several times.
Some months later got letter as fol
lows:
Dear Mr.. Holmes-You know my Jack, the
S-year-old. l am sorry to say that he has got
into bad ways-steals money from u.s. stops out
late and is very disobedient. Can you get him
into any training home or institution of any
kind where his evil propensities will be cured
Kindly oblige US in this.
. l could not resist the temptation to
reply as follows:
Dear Sir--I know Of but one cure for Jack
evil propensities. and that is thorough appics-
tion Of the horsewhip to both parents.

Portland Press: In spite of Mr.. Bry
ans explanation of his attitude toward
the Paris treaty we feel quite sure that
if he had chance to act it over again,
in the light of his present knowledge
he would act very differently, assuming
that his opposition to so-called imperial
ism is sincere. If there was any prac-
ticable way of settling the Philippine
question without coufict with the
natives it was by an amendment to the
treaty fixing the status of the islands
precisely the same as the Cuba's was
fixed. Mr.. Bryan's influence defeated
the adoption of this way, and all the
excuses and explanations he can now
make will not obscure the fact or relieve
him of the responsibility.

Law is supposed to be for the ends of
justice and the punishment of criminals,

through habeus corpus proceedings or
other forms are many times vexatious,
serving as shield to the law breaker

ment. The notorious Neeley, it appears
has appealed from the order of court
for his detention and removal to Cuba
for trial. The personal liberty of noto-
rious thieves of public funds seems to be
of greater Importance to court officials
than their trial before the proper tribu-
nal. Forms of law and frivolous pretexts
are successfully invoked to prevent even
their trial. 1t is hard to secure the
punishment of a big scoundrel with
plenty of money.

At Ramsbury Manor England. there

the invalid. call un plain Bill" In
accordance with these laconic inStruc-
tons the nurse gave the name of Plain
bill to the clergyman, and the infant
was christcned accordingly.
In an even funnier way IS the queer
Christian name of Mr.. ono T1chiner of
Peckham accounted for. When his
parents and sponsors arrived at the
church. his name had not been settled
upon, and when the clergyman said.
"Name this child" one of the friends

else spoke, the clergyman thought that
was to be his name and baptized him

Horses In Battle,

One of the most curious sights TO be
seen In cavalry charge is the various
riderless horses galloping in the line IN
perfect order At the charge Of Bala-
klava the front rank Of one regiment
was composed to great extent Of rid
erless animals, their masters having
dropped one by one. 1t would seem
that in the excitement Of the moment
the horses lose all conception Of what
Is happening around them and proba
bly, fail to notice the fall Of their rid
ers.
The return of ridcrless horses 10
camp is an almost certain sign Of de
feat When cavalry charge is sue
cessful the horses Will as l have said
all keep up together. even though they
have lost their riders. but when a force
is routed the first news Of Ill omen to
those in the rear will be the return OF
the horses With empty saddles and
stirrups dangling free. No more sorry
sight can be imagined To illustrate
the callous feeling these animals have
under fire a case which happened at
Ladysmith during the siege may be
cited A farrier sergeant was engaged
in shoeing an officers horse In the open
ground behind the stables of a hotel
and had already put one or two nails
Into the shoe when shell came scream
Ing through the air The next mo-
ment the missile burst five or six yards
away from where the sergeant and the
horse were standing, and the splinters
flew around both. but failed to touch
either. When the smoke had cleared,
the horse was to be seen with Its foot
still in the mans apron, quite undis-
turbed by the incident. - Pearson's
Magazine.

presentation of the Brown Memorial
Library, which has been in process of

with due ceremony and the people of the
town and many visitors were there.
Hon. w. w. Brown of Portland, the

The gift is grand one, consisting of a
