Just before the opening OF the IA iir
rebellion I'm South Africa. about the
middle Of the last century, the Sooth-
saycrs bade the tribes Kill their cattle
and destroy their crops OF grain. The
spirits of their ancestors were to arise
and help them to eXtcrminate every
white man in the country. The advice
was solemnly accepted. When the day
Of the great uprising arrived many Of
the rebels were already starving. But
there came no ghostly herds of cattle
out of the earth, no crops not SOwn
with hands. Grim, terrible famine
swept over the land, and In the months
which followed. although the authori-
ties did everything in their power TO
mitigate its horrors, 10000 victims OF n
false prophet starved to death.

Thanksgiving Proclamation
STATE OF RHODE ISLAND AND
PROVIDENCE PLANTATIONS.

Thanksgiving Proclamation by His Ex-
cellency George II. Utter, Governor.
For many years it has been the custom to
appoint certain day for public thanks.
giving and praise to the Lord of Nations in
recognition of the favor which He shows
the children Of men. That this festival
might be observed at the same time through
out the whole country the particular day
chosen has been that previously fixed by
the President of the United States
Therefore. following both custom and ex-
ample, and acting in accordance with law,
I hereby appoint Thursday, Nov. 20 1906, a
day of public thanksgiving and call upon
the people of the State to observe it as
such.
The day should be one of thanksgivin
and praise to Him who long ago, promised
that seedtme and harvest should not
cease. The material welfare Of our com
mon country is cause why the people should
proclaim their allegiance to Him, and the
opportunity which such welfare opens to
the nation increases the dury to acknowl-
edge Him not only as the giver of all good
but as the one ruler of the whole world
That this may be done, let families gather
in their homes on this thanksgiving day.
and let him that hath, share with him that
hath not Let the houses Of worship be
thrown open that all may publicly acknowl-
edge that "the earth is the Lords and the
fullness thereof" In recognition of the
blessings of the past year, let the people
pledge anew their loyalty to lin who was,
and is, and evermore shall be.
In testimony whereof, have here unto
set my hand and caused the seal of the
State to be affixed this fourteenth day Of
November, in the year of our Lord one
thousand nine hundred and six, and Of in
dependence the one hundred and thirty
first. GEORGE III. UTTER

CHARLES p. BENNETT, Secretary Of
State.

MAGIC AND RELIGION.
Their Parting Due To the Advance of
Civilization.

In west Afr: "a the belief I'm a new
birth wlthou, oss OF identity is proved
by the fact that when baby arrives
In family IL is shown Il selection Of
small articles belonging 10 deceased
members, and the thing which the
child catches hold of Identifies him as
"Unclc John" or cousin Emma" and
so forth. So far as this belief prevails
1t Is held by some that garments once
worn or other objects which have been
in intimate contact with a human be-
ing are penetrated by his personality
and remain, as IL were, united with
him for good or i'll.
In nearly all stages OF civilization
now TO be found In the world what we
call supernatural beings were concern
ed with the initiation Of the magician.
The schism between magic and reli-
gion was q later development Of civ
iliZatlon. When IL occurred, as the
history Of heresy in Europe and the
witch trials teach, II was rather magic
In its antisOcial aspect than in itself,
which was reprobated and punished.
1t is strange In this connection TO no
tice that the magician was only con-
demned when he departed from estab-
llshcd custom and established beliefs
which involved q severance from the
community and an imputation Of anti
social ends. Practices essentially mag
ical might be incorporated i'm religious
rites and exercised for what was be-
lieved TO be the general good. In such
n case they have continued to be eX-
ercised with general assent i'm the high

ODD MARRIAGE CUSTOM.
POrches nv Wedding Certificates ON
the Island Of Jersey.


Among Jerseymen propcr-that Is to
say, among the descendants Of the orig
inal inhabitants Of the island and not
the English or French residents there
n very curious and interesting old mar
riage custom exists.
Upon the completion OF the ceremony
and, If i'm strict accordance with tradi-
ton, before the happy couple take up
residence in their new abode the stone
slab at the top Of the porch containing
the front door Is inscribed with the in
itials of the bridegroom, those Of the
bride, the date Of the ceremony and
two hearts intwined, the latter being
an emblem Of their intcrmingled love
and the whole forming a most lasting
and public certificate OF marriage.
Occasionally, however, little diff
Guilty arises. The bride may meet with
an early death, and i'm the course OF
time the widower may desire to re-
enter the holy state Of matrimOny
Having fulfilled his desire, it appears
rather puzzling to know what to do
about the inscription.
In some cases, therefore, the initials
and date OF the first wedding have
been erased and those Of the suisse
quent ceremony substituted while in
others the initials of the second wife
and the date have been added below
the first, Il second pair of intwincd
hearts being thought unnecessary. The
letters are usually from six to nine
inches in height, so that they may he
easily read across the road.-LonGon
Mail.
