Ashanti Brides in Gala Attire.

A wedding in Ashanti is among the
more educated natives, quite a mo-
mentous event. Long before the aus
picious day arrives. the all-important
question of dress arises and is dis
cussed. Very often the dresses of the
bride and bridesmaids are ordered
from England. The bride considers
orange blossoms to be an absolute
necessity. and when the day arrives
she stands before the altar in white
satin or silk dress which is generally
decorated with silver leaves and or
ance blossoms. a tulle veil, and she
carries a boquet OF flowers i'll her
hands. The bridesmaids have on new
frocks. AL wear white kid gloves
and new boots. and the men are re-
splendent in frock coats and white tall
hats.

THE INSTINCT OF MIGRATION.
Shown in Fall Flight of the Bobolink
Toward the Southland

The instinct of migration is one OF
the most wonderful in the world, says
c. William Beebe, in Recreation. A
young bobwhte and bobolink are
hatched in the same New England
field. The former grows up and dur
ing the fall and winter forms one of
the covey which is content TO wander
a mile or two, here and there, in
search of good feeding grounds. Hard
ly has the bobolink donned his first
full dress before an irresistible i'm.
pulse seizes him. One night he rises
UP and up, ever higher. en- futtering
wings, sets his course southwark,
gives you glimpse of him athwart
the moon, and keeps on through Vir-
ginia to Florida, across seas, over
tropical islands, far into South Ameri-
ca, never content until he has put the
great Amazon between him and his
fardistant birthplace.

"DEIriEsp OF NAVAJO INDIANS.
Tribe Still cIinss Fast to the Ancient
Superstjtjon

The hideous pictures of Indian del
ties that are commonly circulated give
one little reason to suspect that they
are, after all, only ordinary human be-
ings. Probably the most awe-inspir-
ing of Indian "deites" are those of
the Navajo people The deities are,
really medicine men and they never
perform before the people except
when masked. Their powers are sup
posed to be almost unlimited and
patient they have treated has before
him q long life and good health. Their
bodies are invariably tattooed in the
most grotesque fashion and over their
heads are placed hideous masks made
of fiber and skins. When patient
is to be treated they dance about him
and sing uncanny songs, all the while
sprinklins him with sacred lotions or
healing him with magic wands. The
whole tribe gathers at such cere.
mony and for days feast and drink at
the sick mans expense. When the
many ceremonies are over the masked
"deities" disappear, unmask in secret,
and later appear among the other
tribesmen.
Though the old-time superstitiOns
of the Indians are fast dying out, a
few of the more complete nations still
cling to the old traditions and meth
ods of treating the sick.

DEMOCRATIC GAINS.

The election news. since the full re-
turns have been reported, shows great
democratic gains. The election of all
the state officers in New York, other
than governor, by small democratic
majorities in spite of all the weight and
influence of the administration indicates
that the great heart of the Empire state
still beats in unison with democracy and
that with popular candidates in 1908 the
electoral vote of the state is likely to be
in the democratic column.
But the most wonderful change from
abject surrender to the trust and cor
poration to the reviving influences of
good governn ent is in New Jersey A
tabulation of the votes by counties
shows a democratic majority of 1880 in
the state. The republican plurality tor
the assembly tickets last year was 81,
918 and Roosevelt was elected by $4,000
and there was $1,000 majority for the
republican governor This is the first
democratic majority in the state since
1893 and indicates that Jersey Justice
will cleanse the state of the ring of cor
ruptionists and grafters that have in
tested her and like New York will be
again doubtful states with the chances
favoring the democracy.
The other democratic gains are in
Rhode Island, Minnesota, North Da-
aota, Missouri and Oklahoma, which
states all gave large democratic MAORI
ties. The democratic candidate for
COVE. nor of Kansas was only defeated
by 1000 votes, a gain of $4,000 over the
vote Of 1904. The democratic gain of
over fifty members Of congress shows
the general trend of the country to
swing towards democratic policies and

publican congress further indicates
