that will oppress you, and yet it will
be as well not to mention voodoo with
out having carefully and minutely felt
your way. For he may be worshiper
of the serpent himself.
The voodoo drum is bamboo, with
a depth Of two feet A piece of goat
skin, with some of the hail still at
tached to it, is stretched over the top
and is beaten with the knuckles.
Led by the drumming, which was
plain to hear all over the town, the
writer witnessed a typical voodoo
ceremony not far from Jeremie. It
was attended by at least 300 blacks of
both sexes. The drummer was a white
haired woman, holding a white rooster
in one hand while beating the drum
with the other. The blacks all swayed
back and forth, keeping time with the
drumming, and chanting a monotonous
song of three or four notes, which new
er varied in intensity or pitch or
rhythm from beginning to end
The Mamaloi. a tall, fine looking
woman, was dressed in loose gown
of white, with red ornamentations on
her shoulders, and with a white and
red cloth tied turbanwise around her
head. She began a slow, swaying
dance and with such few steps that
she hardly lifted her feet from the
floor. The Papaloi, thin, whiskered
black, crouched at her feet.
Suddenly the Mamaloi screamed
twice and froth appeared on her

islands not only because of the love of
the people for that form of worship
but because it is inextricably mixed
with the political intrigue that is 60
ing on forever. 1t is said to be dying
out.
But no man can tell. One may
spend ten years in Hayti and the land
still be mysterious to him. The news
papers of the republic" dare not print
anything about voodoo. And the bet
ter classes fear the voodoo priests for
the reason that voodoo and poison
have fearful and close connection in
Hayti. The Mamaloi and the Papaloi
are past masters in the knowledge of
strange vegetable poisons. The is
laud is singularly rich in trees and
plants from which drugs may be ex-
tracted, and Mamaloi and Papaloi
know them all.
There are strange diseases in Hayti.
One of them causes person who goes
to bed feeling well and sound to wake
up raving madman. Another brings
death after an hour of agony, during
which the skin is covered with huge
yellow blotches. There is a death that
comes after one has put on a shirt on
which has been sprinkled liquid fur
nished by a Mamaloi or Papaloi.
Again, some of the diseases that

end in death. There is another di-
sease that causes sudden blindness
That, too, can be cured suddenly,
swiftly and mysteriously by voodoo
priest after the doctors have given it
up.
Thus inquisitiveness in Hayti is a
danger at all times. Your host may

Minneapolis Chamber of Commerce, May n.
Foreign markets trife frmer in
wheat this morning and this was encourage
ing here. In consequence the market held
firm and even advanced fractionally, July
selling to 14sc. But trade was lighter than
ever. Scarcely any outside interest was
shown, and it was the narrowest kind Of a
pit traders market up to noon. The news
from the northwest was bearish as to the
crop outlook. The statistical news and the
run Of figures bearing on the northwest sup
ply outlook were strengthening. Winnipeg
sent some messages giving the prospects as
very favorable through Manitoba The south
west was Indifferent. Chicago had a Few
frightened shorts in corn who ran In and
this had some little effect wheat The
Bradstreet figures for the decrease in the

tied down quietly to wait for them Liver

At primary points receipts were 254,OoO bu
against 1895, 900 bu last year. and shipments
471,0O0 against $4,000 bu. Minneapolis re-
ceived SO cars against 103 last year, and Du-
luth had 10 against 95. Wheat ana nour
clearances equaled $4,000 bu. ..-,.
Near the close the market moved up an
other fraction on receipts of the Bradstreet
figures and reports Of sales for export ana
good cash sales in Chicago. Bradstreet makes
