Talking Man of Samoa.

Samoa's talking man, or ''Tolafali,"
is a character. All the affairs of state of
the village in which he holds office are
carried upon his shoulders. In ordi-
nary he is the chief adviser, persuader,
convincer and restrainer of the leading
chiefs. Having the gift of eloquence,
he makes the most of it. He enjoys i'm
munity from many things. He cannot
be spoken of in ordinary terms. If it
should be necessary to speak of his eyes
or his mouth or his limbs, special honor
able words must be used-Words which
attach to him alone and have never
been applied to the personal parts of
ordinary men. AS he stands to deliver
his soft, persuasive; melifuous oratory,
with staff of Office in his hand and his
fly duster@ thrown over his shoulder,
anyone can see that he is man of great
Importance, or, if this is not apparent
from his attitude, it may be gathered
from the attention paid to his utter
ances by gray-haired chiefs and by
youths and 'maidens. If the talking
man is a clever fellow and understands
his business; he:is the chief ruling pow
er of his tribe, although the nominal
headship is always vested in a chief or
patriarchial fgurehead.-N. Y. Press.

PONY EXPRESS REDIVIVUS.
Hebron, Neb., Witnesses q Revival OF
Famous OId-T1me Cross COun-

Forty years ago the great plains Of
the west were crossed by a set of dar-
ing riders who were known as tie ''pory

dition are filled with stori b of the do
ings Of this band of daring :aen. But

With the passing Of the Indian as
predatt!orysWarIior: and his adaptation to
the arts Of peace as an actor in an
open-aif drama the reason for the pony
express passed also. But out in Ne
braska, says the Chicago Chronicle, the
land of sand dunes, they have recently
witnessed revival Of this pony express.
Not that q lack Of railroads has caused
the revival or that Indians abound, but
that the express company at Hebron.
has come to, the. conclusion that a
municipal tax is unwarranted.
Hebron needs money, and has taxed
all companies which do business in the
corporate limits. The express COM
pany declined to pay the license and
moved out. So a pony express service
has been established between Hebron
and Belvidere. The latter town is bit
more liberal. so the story goes, and the
company is attempting to hold its own
with a few outriders.

something like three hours in cen
fury. It also states that the Span

instructions that all instruments
intended for observations -. of the
eclipse of the sun on May ~,
1900, are to be admitted free of duty.
Nature, however, seems to be uncer-
tain of the exact dste of the impor-
tant. eclipse, for, in another portion
of the same issue (September 21), it
gives the date as May 20, 1900. This
scientific journal states that during
the more recent eclipses, attempts to
extend our knowledge of the sun have
taken the place of the superstitious
fear with which they were formerly
regarded; -. r a. ;: q ::

GIFTS OF GAME.
Many Birds Sent at This season
Across the Atlantic-Imports
= f::8# Of Game. s,

Among the gifts at the Christmas
season are. many of game; which are ex-
changed between this country and for
eign countries, chiefly England. Thus,
Englishmen send here pheasants and
grouse and SO on, and Americans send
to England canvasback ducks, wild tur-
keys and other choice game. These
things may be sent from either coun-
try to the other, say by bankers; New
York banking house sending the game
of this country to members of the house
representing it in London, and London
bankers, it may be, sending English
game to members of the American
house representing it here. Merchants
in both countries maintain the same
pleasant custom with their representa-
tives abroad, and private persons in
either country send game to their
friends in the other.
This game is packed in hampers and
shipped in the refrigerator rooms of the
steamers on which it is carried, and it
reaches its destination, on either side.
in perfect condition. Every year at this
season many such packages find their
way across the Atlantic in one direction
or the other.
There is now considerable American
game exported, this being a trade that
has been developed chiefly within the
past ten or twelve years. October, No.
vember and December are the months
in which American game is most large
ly exported, the quantities depending
more or less on the season and the sup
ply. There are sent from here prairie
chickens, quails, various kinds of ducks
and other game. This game is shipped
mostly to Liverpool, whence it is. dis;
tributed. American game in it's sea-
son may now be had in various countries
Of Continental Europe as we'll as in
England; Berlin being the largest con-
sumner among the continental cities.
There is some game imported into
this country from European countries,
this including venison, quails, par
tridges, pheasants and ducks from
France, and pheasants from England,
and grouse from Scotland. The foreign
game is imported principally during
the close season of American game. 1t
is sold, some to families, but mainly to
the more expensive hotels and restau-

GREAT SEASON FOR DEER.
Some Sections of the COuntrv Ave-
Reported to Be swarming with
the Game.

From the far north and far south of
our country come reports that show
that the present deer season is a good
one. Few think of the south as deer
shooting country, and yet welearn that
this year the wild swamp forest belt
between Savannah and the high lands
of Georgia is swarming with game.
Deer have been protected there for
some years now, but as a, fact, the ma
ture of the country is their best pro-;
lection.
Imagine leaving the city of Savannah
at ten o'clock in the morning and at II
o'clock calmly surveying a splendid
buck just fallen from your bullet. That
was the experience week or two ago
of DIR. Corbin, of Georgia's chief sea-
port. A few days after that Albert
Wylly left Savannah at $3.50 in the aft
ernoon for Bourquin's plantation, a
few miles out in the woods, and within
IL minutes after his. arrival started up
four deer. He did not get any of them,
but the next day, being better pre-
pared, had better luck.
These two instances show what is
going on in Georgia in a deer hunting
way. From the other end of the coun-
try the reports are quite as lively.
Maine has so many deer this fall that
they are appearing on the outskirts of
many large towns. The Portland Press
reports that deer dashed across coun-
try, into the city limits of Portland the
other day, and escaped before any of
= the astonished citizens could get their
guns.
Even the moose are wandering out of
their businesses. These great animals
seeem to belong exclusively to the big
woods. For one to venture on to rail
road track in long settled region like
the town of Bridgton was very surpris-
ing, but it is not an isolated case.
In the town of Winslow one recent
Sunday a large moose was seen, and
pursued for some distance. Winslow
is the next town to the busy city of Wa
terville, and it's settlement dates back
more than a century and quarter. It
is many miles from the game regions,
and the presence of a moose there indi-

SOUTH AFRICA'S PLAQUES.
AT BuluwayO Boots DevOured by
Ants-Rava&es Of the
Rinderpest.

South Africa imports hides, wool and
mohair, and the ranchmen would revel
in riches were it not for the various
pests that decimate his focks and
herds. The most deadly one is the
rinderpest, a cattle plaugle which in the
last ten years has been slowly creeping
from Central Africa southwark, leaving
a wake of whitened bones. In travelling
through Natal I saw so oxen lying dead
about spring where they had tum-
bled one over the other, so suddenly
had the disease attacked them. 1t was
almost impossible then to get an I'M
inged piece of steak at restaurant,
though the proprietor resented any
such charge, and plethoric German
traveller who called in loud tone for
''roast rinderpest" in the railroad cafe
at De Aar Junction, Cape Colony, had
to be picked up in fragments. DR.. Koch
and other eminent specialists tried in
vain to stop this plague. The country is
now recovering from. it slowly.
Another pest is the tsetse fly, an in
sect resembling our common house fly,
but three times as large. Its bite will
kill a horse, cow or any other domestic
animal in about ten days, but, strange
to say" does not affect wild animal
or a human. being. A less dangerous
but more troublesome pest is the white
ant, which is about one-quarter of an
inch long and ubiquitous in many parts
of the country: They live under the
ground, and can only be routed by kill,
ing the queen, which sometimes reaches
the size of one inch in length. This in
sect is. particularly harassing in Rho
desia. At BuluWayo my travelling COM
panion inadvertently left his boots on
the floor after turning in at night, and
he arose next morning to find the up
pers carefully separated from the soles.
'Lucky you didn't leave your clothes
on the floor,' was the hotel keepers
only consolation. These ants will eat
through anything but metal, and for
that reason much of the building is
done with corrugated iron. The ant hill
is one of the conspicuous landmarks in
travelling over South Africa~-Ainslee's
