Consumption OF earth as food is s

Consumption of earth as food is said
to be common practice in Oriental
countries. 1t is claimed that the people
of China, New Caledonia and New
Guinea. as well as those Of the Malay
archipelago are addicted to the habit.
A writer in the New York Tribune SAYS
I'm Java and Sumatra the clay used
undergoes a preliminary preparation
for consumption, being mixed with
water, reduced to paste. and the san l
and other hard substances removed.
The clay is then formed iuto small cakes
or tablets about as thick as lead
pencil and baked in an iron saucepan.
When the tablet emerges from this pro.
cess it resembles piece OF dried pork
The japanese frequently eat small fig
ures roughly modelled from clay, which
resembles the animals turned out in
pastry shops"

1t would be we'll if it could be said OF
many of the men Of this country that
"a little child snail lead them" in the
light OF the excellent rules OF citizenship
laid down by an Italian boy, age IS
years, of New York city. That lad re.
Gently prepared an essay on citizenship
for the City History club of New York.
Among the rules laid down by this boy
are the following: IF want to be a
good citizen l must be true to my
country, true to my state and true to
my city. If do not vote l will not be
doing my duty. must have my own
judgment to vote for the man think is
best qualified for the office when he has
been nominated for. If don't won't
be doing my duty. must not let any
| body bride me to vote for man l think
not fitted for an office. 1t will also be
my duty to be industrious and eelf.sup.
porting, so as not to be burden and a
nuisance to the public. must pay
taxes, so that the government can be
maintained and the officers OF the gov
eminent paid, because the government
is for nv good. When il ia necessary I
must he p to maintain order and always
be ready for public service, and in case
OF war serve my country. should know
the history OF my country and be an
intelligent reader and close observer of
current events.

A Russian general is quoted as say
ing: "Our army takes no heed OF
political questions, and, of course, de.
sires war, for war is its trade. But l
think on this occasion its wish will re.
main uniulfilled." This little item not
only gives hope Of peaceful settlement
OF the differences between Russia and
Japan, but shows the dangers of large
army. The army desires war, for this
is its trade"-This ought to be consid.
cred by those who are clamoring for s
large army.

The Brooklyn Eagle says that "Mr.
Bryan assumes that the voters are wrong
while he is right" The voters placed
the republican party in power in 1896
and again in 1900. Were they right
then in giving support to the republican
party? If the republican party was
right then, is it not right now? And ii
the voters were right 1896 and in 1900
in choosing the republican party, why
does the Brooklyn Eagle insist that the
democratic party nominate some man Of
It's choosing because that course, in the
Eagles opinion, lie necessary to the de-
feat OF the republican party. The Eagle
10 willing to have the republican party
defeated, provided that result can be
accomplished BY a candidate Of the
Eagles choosing. and a candidate whose
administration would not act no differ.
emily with respect to special interests
than the republican administration does.
But the democratic party does not choose
candidate upon whom the repre-
sentatives of special interests may
reply. then the. Eagle will be found
giving cordial support to the republican
ticket.

A lynching case near Savannah
Georgia, has broken all the bloody rec
ords of the South for barbarism. Two
negroes who had committed an afro
cious crime and were under sentence of
death for it, were taken from Jail by a
mob and burned at the stake with the
most shocking elaboration. The plea
that the laws delays cause lynchtngs
does not apply in this case, for the
criminals had been very quickly tried
and sentenced. The crime of the mob
was as horrible as the crime it aveng-
ed. 1t was composed of white and pre-
sumably intelligent Americans. With
the most cold-blooded coolness-not in
any frenzy of excitement, for the mob
stood aside to allow a photographer on
the scene to take picture of the vic
Tins writhing in flames at the stake to
which they were bound,-this assem-
blage of Georgia citizens satisfied their
instincts of cruelty. The scene is the
same as historian and novelist have so
often used to hOrrify readers in narra-
tives of the fiendish doings of the North
American Indians-oniy the demons
are white men.

Hilo did well with the entertainment
of those who went to the Republican
convention. The occasion was some
thing of an awakening for the Hawaii
city and probably the resulting party
enthusiasm on the big island will justi-
fly the decision of the central committee
sending the convention there. The next
time a party convention is held in Hilo
there will probably be hotel there.
