A Grewsome Kamr Custom.

writer on the Kaffirs of South At
rica says: "A Pondo chief in very old
en- days on accession to the throne
would kill one of his brothers and
wash in his blood to strengthen him
self and then would keep his medicines
in the skull of the dead brother, a
practice which raised the power of the
medicine to the NTH as mathemati-
clans would say. If a warrior of con
spicuous bravery is killed in war his
body is made into medicine and admin
istered to the young men to make them
brave, a practice which may well have
been the basis of canMbalism."

the Pale Yellow.
There is most probably an important
dietetic difference between two eggs
the yOlk of one Of which is a very pale
yellow color and that of the other
rich. almost reddish color. 1t is no.
torious fact that the country produced
egg may usually be placed under the
latter description. while the egg pro-
duced by the hen that is under an un-
healthy and limited environment shows
an anaemic color, generally very pale
yellow. The eggs of wild birds-as,
for example, the plOver-show yOlk Of
a rich reddish color.
The substance which contributes col
or to the yolk of the egg is iron, just as
it is iron which gives color to the
blood, and there seems to be little
doubt that the iron compound in the
yolk of the egg is of similar nature
to that of the blood. 1t is easily as
simulated, and eggs are regarded as a
suitable food for the anaemic person,
as they present concentrated and
generally easily digested form of nu-
triment rich in iron. The iron com
pound of the egg has, in fact, been
termed "haematogen," because it is
probable that from it the blood of the
chick is derived. The amount of iron
in the yolk of an egg would appear to
increase with the intensity of its color,
and there can be little doubt that the
maximum is reached in the richly col
Ored yolk of the egg produced by a
fowl existing in healthy Surroundings
for then its processes of nutrition would
be working under very favorable con
ditions. AS an article of diet, there
fore. the egg should be judged not by
the color of its she'll but of the yOlk

PERMANENT MAGNETS.

Bar of Steel.

The simplest way OF MaBnetAhlnE a
Bar of Steel.
The simplest way of magnetiZing a
bar of steel is that known as single
touch" The bar to be magnetiZed is
laid on the table and the pole of a pow
erful magnet is rubbed from ten to
twenty times along it's length, always
in the same direction. If the north
pole of the magnet is employed the end
of the bar first touched will also be
come a north pole, while the opposite
end, at which the magnet is lifted be-
fore returning, will be south pole.
There are other ana more complicated
methods. known as divided touch"
and double tOuch," in which two and
even four magnets are employed.
A steel bar can also be magnet1zed
by placing it within a coil of insulated
wire, through which a galvanic current
is circulating. The magnetism induced
in this way, however, is weak COM
pared with that which can be procured
If the same strength of current is en-
ployed through the intervention of an

The sympathy of the Smyrna people
has gone out to the Millington suffer
ers in no uncertain tones and assist.
ance has been offered in liberal dona-
tiOns and otherwise. The awful con-
hagration has been one of the much
talked about things and many have
wondered why town of the size of
Millington should have been without
an organized fire department and some
fire protection. Long before Smyrna
had water works she had an organized
IRE company and an engine, which
crude as it was, did service on a num-
Der of occasions and saved the town
from disastrous fires. The lesson that
has come home to the Millington peo.
pie should be taken up seriously bv
every town or village which has not an
organized fire department. Not thai
= fire company could have saved Mil
lngton, yet with a fire department
quick and ready to respond, it is prob
able that the fire might have been gotter
under control before spreading to sucl
large proportions. A fire compan,
properly organized and equipRed is
blessing to any town.

''The action of the Bolter Republican
State Committee in calling a State
Convention for the 9th of August" " says
the Dover State Sentinel, sis one that
will 90 far toward complicating the po-
litical situation in the State, and one
which practically of necessity forces
two tickets upon the Republican vo-
ters. 1t should be understood that
the regular organization of this State,
adjudged so twice by the deliberate
action of the National Republican
party, will not permit itself to ebe be-
Titled, coerced or brow beaten in the
selection of candidates for office in this
State. The Sentinel here gives notice
that the Union Republican party, hav-
ing the right by reason of its regular
ity, and the support of a large major
ity of the Republican voters, will not
consent to dicker, and trade, and deal
off candidates when once nominated In
a State Convention by the delegate S
of the people. If the boilers think
that they can hold a convention, and
nominate ticket, and thereby thrust
nominations down the throats of til g
majority party, the Sentinel desires to
make this ultimate and serious and de-
termined statement: 1T will not go. "
The right of the majority of this State
must and will be preserved. This ma
jOIity has no desire to take all the
nominations. On the contrary it is
willing, and has been willing, to ad-
--ust a State ticket by previous agree
ment, through the assignment of GER
tain offices equally to each Organiza-
tion-the said Offices to be filled re-
spectively by the delegates elected to
each Convention. In the assignment
of these positions or places upon the
ballot, the Union Republican party,
for reasons above mentioned, will
steadfastly and unyieldingly demand
the right to the nomination for Gov
ernOr, which seems to be and in fact
is the only bone of contention between
the factions as far as the State ticket
is concerned. Nor will there be an
adjustment of a State ticket, unless
this adjustment is reached before the
conventions are held. As far as tn,
Union Republican Convention goes
when it makes its nominations they
will stand, though the heavens fall
for the people of this State are getting
tired, irrepressibly tired, of a boiling
lawless aud piratical minority whC
profess devotion to purity in politics
but have become the modern Dicl
Turpins upon the political highway
Further, the Sentinel asks the Repub
lican voters of New Castle to seriously
consider the danger and the menace t.
Republican success in New Castle
County through the eill-advised. insane
if not traitorous action of certain of itl
leaders. If there is not adjustmen
beforehand of the State nominations
there will be a straight fight to
finish in this State, including New
Castle County. A Common Primar,
will only be held i'll that county afte
reasonable and equitable adjustmen
Of State nominations have been made
This determination will be adhered tC
regardless of consequences.

Consumption is a human
weed hourishing best in weak
lungs. Like other weeds it's
easily destroyed while young
when old, sometimes inn
possible.
Strengthen the lungs as you
would weak land and the
weeds will disappear.
The best lung fertilizer is
SCOTS Emulsion. Salt pork
is good too, but it is very hard
to digest.
The time to treat consump-
ton is when you begin trying
to hide it from yourself.
Others see it, you won't.
Don't wait until you can't
deceive yourself any longer.
Begin with the first thought
to take SCOTS Emulsion. If
it isn't really consumption so
much the better; you will soon
forget it and be better for the
treatment. If it is consump-
ton you can't expect to be
cured at once, but if you will
begin in time and will be
rigidly regular in your treat
ment you will win.
SCOTS Emulsion, fresh air,
rest all you can, eat all you
can, that's the treatment and
that's the best treatment.

there will be any attempt to resur-
rect any dead issues because there are

year. The production of such large
quantities of gold since 1896 has
demonstrated the correctness of the
position of the free-silver people that
more metallic money was needed by
the business interests of the country
| and the world than was being pro-
duced alone of gold prior to 1896.
This great production of gold since

Senator John W. Daniel, ofVirginia,

This talk of 16 to is nonsense,

changed, and l think the Democratic
party appreciates the fact. Condi'

to say that any plank of any plat

Representative Hugh A. Dinsmore,
of Fayetteville, Arkansas, said:
"While I still believe the party right

1896 and 1900, l can see nothing to
be gained, in view of conditions ex.
listing at this time, by distinct re
affirmation of that principle in TIE

should be done, much may be lost
Bimetalism is not all Of Democracy

Senator Edward W. Carmack, o

. LII CROW. ENiE-

Since the present session of the leg
islature has convened, 4 number OF
i'm Crow" bills have been intro
duced, all of which however apply
only to the Eastern Shore of the
State. 1t is proposed to compel the
railroad companies to have separate
compartments for the proper separa-
ton Of the two races. y bill similar
to this was introduced two wears
ago but was defeated. This time it
is more strongly endorsed than ever
and it is more than probable that
some legislation will be passed.
Senator Brewington introduced tile
last bill. 1t provides that the rail
road companies shall furnish separate
cars for the transportation of the
white and colored passengers. Each
compartment car divided by good
substantial partitions, with a door
from each division, shall be deemed
separate car within the meaning of
the act, and each compartment shall
be marked i'll some conspicuous place
i'll plain letters indicating that it is
set apart for white and colored pas
sengers. Conductors or managers OF
the railroads are to have the power
and are required to assign each white
or colored passenger to his re-
spective seat and should the passen-
ger refuse to occupy the compartment
designated, the passenger shall be
elected from the train. Fines arein-
posed upon passenger for refusing
to ride in the compartment designated
as we'll as upon the railroad com
panies for not enforcing the law. In
case one compartment or the other
may be unexpectedly filed, and no
extra cars are obtainablc, the con,
ductor is authorized to set apart a
a portion of the car assigned to pas,
sengers of one color to passengers Of
another color. The provisions Of
this act do not apply to employees
of the railroads, or nurses, or officers
in charge of prisoners, nor to the
transportation OF passengers in any
caboose car attached to a freight
train, nor Pullman cars nor through
trains that do not do a local bust
