STILL TRAFFIC I'M SLAVES.

| Portuguese I'm West Africa Doing q
Systematic Business.
Portuguese West Africa Ii one part
Of the world where the slave trade still
fourishes, according to Harper's Maya
zine. The writer thus describes what
he saw at Benguela:
A day or two before the steamer Ia
due to depart kind Of ripple seems to
pass over the stagnant town. Officials
stir, clerks begin to crawl about with
pens, the long, low building called the
tribunal opens door or two, window
or two and looks quite busy. Then,
early one morning, the curador arrives
and takes his seat In the long, low
room as representing the beneficent
government of Portugal. Into his pres
ence the slaves are herded In gangs by
the official agent. They are 1snged up
and In accordance with the decree of
Jan. 20, 1908, they are asked whether
they 60 willingly as laborers to San
Thome No attention Of any kind is
paid to their answer. In most cases
no answer is given. Not the slightest
notice would be taken Of a refusal.
The legal contract for FIVE years la
Dor on the island Of San Thome or
Principe is then drawn out and, also
in accordance with the decree, each
slave receives a tin disk with his num-
Der, the Initials Of the agent who Sc
cured him and, in some cases though
not usually at Benguela, the name of
the island to which he is destined. He
also receives in tin cylinder a copy
Of his register, containing the year OF
contract, his number and name, his
birthplace, his chiefs name, the agents
name and observations" Of which last
have never seen any. Exactly the
same ritual Is observed for the women
as for the men.
The disks are hung round their
necks, the cylinders are slung at their
sides and the natives, believing them
to be some kind of fetish or white
mans Ju-ju," are rather pleased. All
are then ranged up and marched out
again, either to the compounds, where
they are shut In, or straight to the
pier, where the lighters, which are to
take them to the ship, lie tossing upon
the waves.
The climax of, the farce has now
been reached. The deed of pitiless
hypocrisy has been consummated. The
requirements Of legalized slavery have
been satisfied. The government has
redeemed" the slaves which It's own
agents have 80 diligently and 80 profit
ably collected. They went into the
tribunal as slaves; they have come out
as contracted laborers."
No one In heaven or on earth can see
the smallest difference, but by the
change Of name Portugal stiles the en-
feebled protests of nations like the En-
glish and by the excuse of law she
smooths her conscience and whitens
over one of the blacklist crimes which
| even Africa can show.

SAILOR SIGNS AND TOKENS.

Many Strange superstitions of Those
Who Roam the Oceans.
There is general Idea that the
sailor labors under more than the one
pet superstition popular tradition as
signs to each Individual. J. D. ]. Kel-
ley, although he declares that Glars"
are no more superstitious than any of
their equals In training and opportuni-
ties, cites in 1.-THE Ships Company"
many Of the signs and tokens in which
those "who go down to the sea In ships''
put their faith.
In the past superstition was a part
of every ship; 1t entered into its keel,
climbed to its flags, ran at its launch
Ing, controlled its crew and cargo, eyok-
ed portents and governed its ventures
and arrivals.
A bit Of stolen wood was always NOR
tised into the keel to make a ship sail
fast. A silver coin was placed in the
mainmast step to insure lucky ventures.
The modern christening by the wine
bottle arose from the ancient libations
poured on the deck by priests.
On a sailing ship lawyers, women
and the clergy are looked upon with
disfavor, as they are supposed to bring
Ill luck. Every black cat that comes

MISS ANN.

Prfa Miss Ann, with her straight black
gown,
With her two little antique curls,
Walks down the street of the struggling
town
BY the racing boys and girls.
School is over and urchins are out
Mischief and fun are young,
And prim Miss Ann turns sharp about
To hear the chorus sung:
"Ann--Anni
Can't get a mani
Hurry and catch him
As soon as you can"
Prim Miss Ann, with her straight black
gown,
Hastens her errand late,
There's poor, quick pain in her eyes of
brown
And queer little halt in her gait.
But she holds up her head to the curious
crowd
That smiles at her passing by,
r With gesture that once was reckoned
proud,
As she hears the wavering cryi
AMMAN!
Can't get mani
Hurry and catch him
As soon as you cant"
Prim Miss Ann, that straight black gown
Hides tender old heart, know
Else why does that worn face 20 cast
down
And two tears trickle slow?
Do you think of something buried deep
Where the dear lost longings are
OF something that still must turn and
weep
As the chant comes faint and fart
AMMAN!
Can't get a man!
Hurry and catch him
As soon as you cant"
