Talking Man OF samnn-

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,
conyincer and restrainer Of the leading
chiefs. Having the gift Of eloquence,
he makes the most of il. He enjoys inn
munity from many things. lie cannot
be spoken of in ordinary terms. II 1t
should be necessary to speak OF his eyes
or his mouth or his limbs, special honor
able words must be used-words which
attach &c him alone and have never
been applied TO the personal parts Of
ordinary men. As he stands TO deliver
his soft, persuasive, mellifluous oratory,
with staff Of Office in his hand and his
fly buster thrown over his shoulder,
anyone can see hat he is a man Of great
Importance, or, IL 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. IL the talking
mar 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 igurehead.-N. Y. Press.

Confessed His Guilt.

Rev. Henry Warman, pastor OF the
Methodist church at Glendive, has issued
the following statement:
"Now that Joseph c.. Hurst has passed
into eternity and died with a quotation on
his lips from Sheldon'r hook In His Steps
o. What Would Jesus Do which neither
admitted his guilt nor denied the same, /.
therefore feel, that in justice to all parties
concerned, | should make known tn. fact
that Joseph C. Hurst admitted to mt that
lac killed Dominick Cavanaueh. In his cell
on Tuesday. March 9th, he stated to me
that he followed C%avanaugh through the
alley IN the 23d Of December, 1898, and
after conversing with him ia a friendly
manner. when he turned to shut the stable
door, he struck him with an iron bolt.
Cavanaugh fell to the ground u~ttering two
cries, aud a womaniL the alley near Steeles
house uttered some kind OF an exclamation
and in looking over his shoulder at her, he
missed his second blow on C~ayanaugh's
head, and striking the ground, broke the
end off his bolt. The woman disappeared
and he struck the unfortunate man sever
al times. While looking for the end OF the

There are only two carriages in town.
One belongs TO the archbishop, and the
other carriage is the property of the
government and one of the perquisites
that pertain TO the presidential power.
1t is an ordinary landau imported from
Paris in pieces and put together by To-
cal talent, and a native artist has paint
ed upon the panels of the doors a bril-
liant reproduction Of the coat of arms
of the republic, about a foot square, in
the national colors-green. yellow and
red. This is greatly admired by the
populace, who see the carriage only oc-
casionally, on state occasions. when it
is drawn by four big black horses wear
ing harness heavily mounted with Sill

and streamers Of the national colors.-

The Governors Decision.

Helena, Mont, March 2S.-Joseph Hurst
will be hanged at G~lendive, Friday unless a
respite can be secured from Gov. Smith,
which is hardly possible,
The governor today announced that he
could not interfere with the judgment of
the court. He reviewed the case in a letter
CT over three thousand words. As 10 the
attorneys who have been pleading for
Hurst, he says that he spent eight days on
the case. examined all evidence in the
record and taken at the preliminary hear
ing and the inquest, and is convinced that
it would not be right for him TO set aside
the finding Of the 16 men 1.-THE jurors, the
Judge and the sapreme COURT on this case.
As to the evidence OF Gilmore. the man
whose testimony directly connected Hurst
with the killing, the governor says that
careful examination of all that witness
testimony convinces him hat it stands
mistaken. The governor severely con-
dennis c. p. Connolly for his article in th
Standard rejecting upon the court OF Daw-
son county. The governor depreciates the
attempt thus made to influence executive
action.
He says it would be judicial anarchy for
him to set aside judgments Of courts unlei 8
stronger reasons were presented thar in
the Hurst case.
The governor refers to n letter that
Connolly Internationally sent. IL was
from Myers, one OF Hurst's attorneys, to
Connolly aud stated in effect that the rea.
son Hurst was not placed upon the stand
was because witnesses would be called to
impeach his testimony, and that witnesses
would testify against his character.
The governor says in conclusion, it
would be useless for me to continue Mt
greater length citing the evidence which
tended to establish the identity of Hurst
and that is the sole question to be estab-
lished. II be is in Tact the murderer as 12
men have said beyond a reasonable doubt,
and their verdict had been approved by
the trial Judge who heard all the evidence,
and the supreme court, then this is not a
case that appeals for sympathy or execu-
tive clemency, except in so far as It may
affect those who are left behind to mourn
the untimely end.
After the most patient and careful con-
sideration OF all the facts that have been
submitted to me ] cannot believe that /
would be justified in interfering with the
judgments Of the courts in this case, but
that the law must take its course.

ABOUT CRETINISM.


This is a disease which occurs in
children, and Is characterized by def
cient development. both mental anil
physical The subject is deformed,
understood and mentally deficient
sometimes really an idiot. The on
dition may exist from birth. the little
sufferer never showing any evidence
of mental brightness; or 1t may come
on at any age, the deformity and
weakness of mind then depending up
on the degree of mental and bodily de-
yelopment reached by the child be-
fore the disease appears.
Crctinism is n very common affec-
ton in certain places in the eastern
hemisphere, particularly in shut-in
valleys in the north OF England,
among the Alps, the Pyrenees and the
IIimalayas, and in the central table,
lands OF Asia. In these places IL is
usually associated with goitre, or en-
largement of the thyro,. gland in the
neck.
The disease also occurs here and
there all over the world, but seldom
affects many children in any m To-
cality. except in enclosed valleys in
the parts mentioned. In places where
few children are affected the disease
is not usually accompanied by goitre.
A cretin, as a child with this dis
ease is called. is stunted in its growth,
often with handy legs; the abdomen is
prominent, and the body is arched
backward: the hands are thick. The
skin Is swollen, as if dropsical, but Is
hard, and the finger pressed into it
leaves no deep pit, as it does in cases
OF real dropsy.
The eyes are eXpressionless, the nose
is fat. the lips are thick, the under
enc hanging over, and the mouth Is
half open. The tongue, too, is thick,
and sometimes the tip projects be-
tween the teeth is il it were too big
fer the mouth. The skin is rough and
dry, the teeth are irregular and often
decayed, and the hair is coarse.
There is always more or less pro-
roupced idioey in well-developed
cases. The child is apathetic and
stupid, but good-natured il not dis
turbed.
The disease was formerly thought
to be incurable, and nothing was done
for the poor things except 10 feed
and care for them as well rs circum-
stances would permit. Now, however.
a remedy has been found which will
certainly cure IL treatment Is begun
at an early age. Cretinism is a dis
Ease of the thyroid gland, and Is treat.
ed by the use of the throid extract.
The child begins to grow under the in
fluence Of this remedy, the thick,
course features refine themselves, and
by and by the mental condition also
improves.
The treatment, however, must be
continued while life lasts. II il is dis
continued. the patient 500 begins to
show all the signs Of a relapse into his
former state.-Youth's Companion.
