THREW HIM TO SHARKS.

From the New Hebrides news
comes of an attack by natives upon
q French expedition sent to punish
the blacks for outrageous actions
against white settlers on Mallicolo
Island. est71 aer ~
The French warship Muerthe
landed a party of. marines, who ar
rested three chiefs. As the party
was leaving shot fred from am.
bush killed marine. The party
then attacked the village, dispensing
the natives and killing four men.
The landing party burned the vii.
lage and returned to the bay, where
1t was again fred on and a marine
wounded. -Sc1 c' et Istt .a..
The natives alleged that the mur.
derers of Capt. Richard Pentecost
and six members Of the trader Pc
trel's crew were taken to Noumen.
They were the ringleaders of party
which tied Capt. Pentecost to a. tree
and cast spears into bis body, and
while he was still conscious they
threw him into the shsrk-infested
water and danced while the mon
sters tore the body to pieces.
News of another cannibal feast
by blacks at Mallicolo has been re-
ceived.1 Two natives of Moskelyn
Island were trading when they were
waylaid near Mallicolo by Kanakas.
The men were slaughtered and their
bodies carried to a coast village,
where they were opened as game and
prepared for feast. The bodies were
putin a native canoe and as they the
murderers were leaving they incurred
the suspicion of French trader. The
natives told him they had killed
some pigs, and the Frenchman. be-
iieying their story, allowed them. to
go, 1t subsequently, developed that
severali tribes were assembled and q
feast of human flesh was held.
White settlers learned of this. and
under pressure the natives admitted
they had roasted the bodies and de-
voured the arms and legs of the un-
fortunate men. rt.fa

THE SNAKES TONGUE.

The snakes tongue proves to be a
most remarkable organ. A Mary
land lady student finds that its chief
function is connected with sense of
feeling without touch, and may be a
inner development of the sense that
enables some people to avoid striking
obstacles in the dark. The forked
TAP and the numerous folds behind
1t greatly increase the surface ex.
posure. The cells of the epidermis
are interlaced by a wonderful net
work of extremely fine nerve fibers,
which center in deep nerve plexus
beneath the epidermis and extending
out into the folds.

Wounds, Rrul.s, and burns.

BY applying an antiseptic dressing to wounds
bruises, burns and like injuries before infam-
nation sets in, they may be healed without
inaIuration and In about one-third the time
required by the old treatment. This ia the
greatest discovery and triumph OF modern
surgery. Chamberlain's Pain Balm acts on
this same principle. 1t is an antiseptic and
when applied to such injuries. causes them to
heal very quickly. Italso allays the pai and
soreness and prevents any danger OF blood
poisoning. Keep bottle of Pain Balm in
your home and 1t will save you time and
money, not TO mention the Inconvenience
and suffering such injuries entail.

JUDGE LEWIS RECORD.
Editor Times-Dispatch

Editor Times-Dispatcb:
Dear Sir,-As Judge L. l.. Lewis,
the Republican nominee for Cover
nor of Virginia, is credited with be-
ing lifelong Republican, would
like to know If he was such during
the dark ages of reconstruction
when the ballot was placed in the
hands of every negro buck above the
age of twenty-one, while the most
intelligent, self-respecting white men
of Virginia were for time neither
allowed to vote nor hold office, and
all the offices, State and county.
were filed by carpet baggers, ne
groes and scallawags? If he was a
Republican then, good Lord deliver
us from his political goodness now.
DEMOCRAT WITH A MEMORY.
Pulaski, Va.
We, too, have memory. We re-
member the days of reconstruction:
we remember the days of Mahone-
ism; VIC remember the sorrow, the
affiictlon and the humiliation which
the Republican party brought upon
the South. And when we remember
we know how the Psalmist felt when
ne spoke of hating some things with
a holy hatred.
Yes, Judge was a member Of the
Republican party in reconstruction
times. He was Republican in Ma
hone times. He held office under
the Malone regime. He ia a fine
gentleman, but he is a Republican, q
reconstruction Republican, a Ma
hone Republican. How can any
Democrat think of voting for him.
