Opening Lands for Homeseekers.

Chicago, June 12.-How the rail-
road revolutionizes socially and
physically the country through which
It passes was never better shown
than in the changes wrought by a
50-mile stretch of track from Stock
dale to Cuero, Texas. This line
traversing open prairie country, clos
ed the gap on the Victoria division
of the Galveston, Harrisburg and
San Antonio Railway between San
Antonio and Cuero, and with the
line from Cuero to Port Lavaca gives
San Antonio a direct line to the gulf.
1t also opens up TN additional line
between San Antonio and Houston
by way of Stockdale, providing an
additional incentive TO the develop
ment of the entire coast country,
which In the past decade has made
wonderful progress.
But the change that has come over
the country traversed by the Stock
dale-Cuero extension is the most in
teresting features of this sociological
exhibit. The road opened for set
tlement a wonderfully fertile and
productive section of the state, in
cluding portions of four counties.
Until very recently the entire section
traversed by the Victoria division of
the G.. II. and S. A., controlled by
the Southern Pacific, was dominated
absolutely by the cattle kings. The
cheap fertile lands made accessible
by the railroad, however, have prov
ed too strong an incentive to be
resisted by the home seeker, and in
place of the seven towns that the
latest maps show between Cuero and
San Antonio, scores of prosperous
communities are now established,
many of them rapidly achieving
modest distinction in trade.
Melon and vegetable culture and
general crop growing are rapidly in
oreasing, and toward the Gulf end
OF the line the sugar cane industry
Ia making marked progress. Imme-
diately following the opening of the
Cuero-Stockdale line one-tenth OF
the country bordering upon It was
thrown into cultivation, chiefly cot
ton. This agricultural development
is slowly but surely displacing the
cattle industry and making so homes
grow where one existed in the days
when vast cattle ranches occupied
the country.

witch Hunting in Africa.

|
A remarkable tale of native super
istition and credulity was told at the
magistrates court yesterday morn
ing, when eight Mashona natives
! from the M'rewas district underwent
preliminary examination for commit
ting certain offenses under the witch
craft suppression ordinance. The
eight natives were all relatives, and
the father of some of them died re-
Gently. Not being quite satisfied
that death was due to natural causes.
appeal was made TO a certain native
named Chibanda, who the prosecu-
tor stated was a well-known witch
doctor, though this fact was not
elicited in evidence. The outcome
of the incsntations was that two of
the sons, Mapira and Katiwa, visited
a neighboring kraal and accused a
native woman named Kajiwa of hav-
ing bewitched their father and caused
his death.
They demanded of the husband of
this lady that she should undergo
an ordeal to test the truth of the al
legations. The husband asked for
three days grace, saying he wanted
his wife's uncle to be present at the
trial. When this space had elapsed
Chitandaria, the husband, accom-
panied by his wife and her uncle, a
native named Denti, set out for the
kraal at which the ordeal was to
take place. On arrival the party was
directed to a small spruit below the
kraal. where the eight natives sat in
|conclave.
Chibanda was master OF cere-
monies, and sat cooking some liquid
in pot. When the medicine was
cooked the lady was told to take
Idraught. II was explained that two
draughts OF this medicine would act
either as an emetic or a purgative
should the women be a witch, Two
draughts were administered, but left
the lady undlsturbed.
Chibanda thereupon again piled
the medicine. evidently determined
that the oracle should work, and
after the unfortunate female had
taken twenty-one doses nature re-
belled and the medicine acted In its
dual capacity. On this FIVE of the
natives sprang up with asseglas and
kerries, crying: "There Is the witch
who killed our father Let us kill
her." But the husband and uncle
came to the rescue. After some dis
cussion the bereaved sons agreed to
be compensated, and as a first INSTALL
ment the uncle handed over Kafiir
hoe, telling them II they killed his
niece he would inform on them. The
lady and her relatives then went
back to their, respective kraals.
Three days afterwards the two ma
tives, Mapira and Katlwa, revisited
the lady's husband and demanded
the witch to be handed over TO them
to be killed. This he refused TO do,
and later the woman escaped to the
native commissioner. - Rhodesia

THE SOUTH CHANNEL.

There is a great hubbub being made
over the alleged discovery by the gov
ernment people in charge of the Colum-
hia jetty. OF feasible channel to the
sea bearing southwark from the mouth
of the river, Just as though it had
suddenly asserted itself and was fea-
ture of the jetty's action on the cur
rents from the Columbia. This channel
bas been used by the Columbia bar
pilots for the past p months and was
reported that long ago in the columns
of this paper in the course of its marine
news O, that time.
The channel is nothing new nor sur
prising to the pilots, as it is well known
all along the Pacific Coast that the ten
dency OF all rivers pouring into the
ocean from the Yukon to the Gila is to
the southwark from the point of dis
charge; and in the case in question, its
utility was proven long ago and the an
nouneement just made and credited to
the government, means that the report
made by the pilots at the time they first
used it, has been verified at this hte
day. That is all there is to it. 1t is
officially declared useable and viii be
duly buoyed and charted.
What there is to know about the Co.
lumbia bar may be acquired by an
occasional talk with the men who pass
that barrier a thousand times to the
once it is crossed By the government
people; and the information these men
of the sea give out, may be relied upon
as absolutely correct and reliable to
the last detail, for the excellent reason
that they are daily and hourly in re-
sponsible and intimate connection with
the bar and have got to know it as they
do their own home floors. 1t is pre-
sumed they would be oftener called in
to the councils of the government engi-
neers if red tape did not thrust its vivid
and gagging coils in the way.

HOME SICKNESS.

OF all the maladies that affiict the
human consciousness there is nothing so
acute, so miserably bitter as nostalgia,
inconsistencies, the longing and pining
for the one place in all the world the
heart of man knows and loves beyond
all others; where dwell those who are
the closest, dearest, most sympathetic
and loyal; where are conferred all the
traditions of the family and the years
of its dear history; where are all the
cherished records of kinsmen and the
pride that goes with them; where we are
best known and appreciated, and where
all that is new and strange and false
and fearful never enters, or rarely, and
where we know every face that is likely
to cross our paths and where our ears
are gladdened constantly by the cheerful
hail and happy challenge of voices that
but re-echo our own kindly interest in
the welfare of those about us; where
death alone undoes the ties that bind
us in the largess of kinship and only
death shall silence the call of love.
We sympathize deeply with the aged
Finn who, yesterday, tried to commit
suicide because of the depth of his
wretchedness from this dread and
mournful illness, ami if he recovers
health and strength, we hope he may
find his way back to the home OF his
youth, speedily and happily.
