Pursued By a William.

The home of Harry A. Chitten- den in Little Rock was destroyed by fire, the work of an incendiary. About three weeks ago Mrs. Chit tenden was attacked by a negro thief while alone. She was badly injured by the brute, who cut her several times about the neck and arms. The plucky woman finally escaped from him and gave an alarm. The negro managed to evade the officers. Mir. Chittenden is of opinion the same party who attacked his wife is the one who set fire to his house. Another lady living not far from the Chittenden home was subjected to the same abuse as was Mrs. Chittenden a short time before she was attacked by negro, and these crimes have so enraged the people that summa- ry vengeance may be dealt out to the guilty party if identified.

It Was General.

The recent blizzard which swept over the state resulted in general delay of traffic and much inconven- fence. In the northern section zero weather was experienced, but it is believed the ice on the buds pro- tected fruit from damage The Black and White rivers rose past the danger line, and farmers in the lowlands were compelled to move out. Along the Ouachita the same conditions prevail.

SECRETS HELD BY SAVAGES.
African Wizards Said to Have Won
 derful Command of Telepathy.

African Wizards Said to Have Won
 derful Command of Telepathy.
 Some African wizards profess to be able to turn themselves into lions, or other animals, and so travel vast dis tances and find out the plans of their enemies. About five years ago, relates the Detroit Free Press, Dr. R. w. Eel kin accompanied Emin Pasha on a tour through Uganda and the terri tory behind it. The doctor then travelled northwards towards the Sou dan. At last he got to Lado, about a thousand miles south of Khartoum.
 One morning after his arrival To- cal wizard told him that during the previous night he had been at Mes chera el Rex, on the Nile, $50 miles away, and that two steamers had just arrived there.
 The doctor, who had been away from civilization so long that he knew nothing of the retaking of the Sou- dan, laughed at the news. But the "m'logo," or wizard, insisted it was true, described the people on the boats, and spoke of one Englishman, short, and with a big beard, who had letters for Dr. Felkin. He said he was coming to Lado, and would be there in about 30 days.
 Thirty-two days later Lupton Bey arrived with letters. As for the wiz ard, the doctor believes that he never was more than few miles from his native village in his life. It seems certain that he, and others of his kind, must have a far greater command over the mysteries of telepathy than any Europeans.
 The celebrated African traveller, Capt. Wellby, had an utterly unex- plainable experience when fort nights journey south of Adis Adee- ba, in Abyssinia. A man rushed into camp shouting "Walamo! Walamow He fell down in a fit and was a raving lunatic for many hours.
 His men told the explorer that they were in the country of the Walamo, or "devil-possessed" people. These, they declared, were able to drive a man mad, and it was dangerous to eat in their presence One of Capt. We'll by's men did so, and he, too, went mad.
 Resolving to put an end to this su- perstition, the captain himself ate meal before about 100 of the Wala- mo. He thought no more of it until next morning, when he found himself miserably i'll, although up to that date he had not been unwell single day during his journey.
 The papaloi, or obeah-man, exer- cises the most absolute dominion over the negroes in our West Indian is- lands, especially Jamaica.
 Quite recently the old and trusted servant of a British official in Jamaica became temporarily insane. He be- came dumb, and was evidently unable to understand what was said to him. His wife declared that he must have unwittingly offended the "obeah- man."
 His master said that was all nonsense, and put the man under the care of tirst-rate European doctor.
 After three weeks, during which the unfortunate man got steadily worse, the doctor gave him up as in- curable. His wife thereupon took him up the mountain to the obeah-man's house. The latter examined him, and then mixed some leaves into a thick green paste and made him eat them.
 Three days later he was quite we'll again.

so interesting that the robbers gave
up the job. Mr. Dennison who lives

sontherners Not An BourbOns.

The Banner and Reformer has all
along supported the view that the ex-
IRENE utterances Of the South on the
rare question are not representative
of the real sentiment of this section of
our country on the treatment OF the
negro. Montgomery, Ala, Advertiser
has this to say
There has been no period since the
negroes were freed when it was more
clearlythe duty of the whites to protect
them and give them all their legal and
constitutional rights. In most States
of the South the negro is no longer a
political factor. He can neither hold
office nor elect those who do. In most
respects he is the ward of the white
race, and upon the fairness and
honesty of that race must he depend
for all the privileges aud benefits he
enjoys"
1.-THE white race has a duty which is
imperative. 1t is a duty which is de-
manded by justice, by humanity, and
by self-interest Ours is and will ever
be the governing race. 1t twill elect tie
lawmakers, make the laws, and enforce
them. That being so, that principle
of eternal justice which bids the stror 6
protect the weak, makes it our du ty to
protect the negro in all his legal, in
dustrial and social rights"
The conservative Advertiser makes
one mistake in the otherwise comm on
sense views. In our republic no class
OF citizens can be the ward Of another
class The doctrine of the Decl ar
alton of Independence still has weight
in our halls Of Legislature and in our
courts.

reason is that they will give you almost instant
relief from headache or other pain. In cases

nervous exhaustion, when the brain is too
tired and the body too nervous to rest, an
