Among savaees all the world over is
found the belief that illness is caused by
evil spirits getting into a pecson, and con-

are the wizards, who are supposed 10 have
most influence with and power over evil
spirits.
In a Malay village in the Straits Settle

internal complaint. Her friends decided
that she was being eaten by the familiar

then pressed hard against the place where
the pain is supposed 70 be. II may not
exactly remove the cause of the suffering,
but the pain Of the burn is so severe that
the native becomes unconscious Of its eX

across men with bodies marked like an old
travelling trunk with the scars which are
the result of the redhot poker utilized for
removing the Ills TO which flesh is heir.
When a native has been eating some
thing which does not agree with him. and
he feels knots in his interior, he is quite
convinced that he has a wriggling snake

WANT LEVERS PLACE.
The Republicans May Put Out Two
Candidates.

The State says Congressman Lev
er from this district will very likely
have opposition for his seat in the
national house of representatives by
the negro Richardson Of Sumter, VINO
is said to be prominent in Republican
politics In this State. This Is not
official, for nothing official is ever
known concerning the status OF Re-
publican affairs in this State. Ho "
ever, at the recent negro Republican
convention in this city, the statement
was made by several of the delegates
that Richardson's name had been
placed to oppose Congressman Lever
at a district convention held sever
al weeks ago In Sumter.
"This announcement prove right
interesting when the rumor that
There would be a white Republican
convention held in Columbia. 1t may
mean that there will be three candi-
dates for the Office of congress should
the white Republicans decide upon a
ticket. It is the business OF the
district conventions TO nominate can
didates FOR congress. Conventions
lare expected to be held In all Of
| the districts.
The Republican, white or black,
who rus against Lever this fal! is a
fool. The next House will be Demo-
cratic and Republican candidates will
not be even allowed the $4,000 eS-
pense account which the Republican
Congressman have kindly allowed
them for many years. Congressional
contests from the South will get a
