SAVAGES BELIEVE
IN REINCARNATION

LONDON March l.-Word has
been received from Prof. Baldwin
Spencer, of the Australian Anthropo-
logical Survey, mat he has found n
the center OF that continent a mum
Der OF tribes that believe in reincarn-
alton. IL is further announced That
their notions In that respect tally
with those OF the intellectual native
races in India belief that has been
carried into Western civilization TN.
der the name of Theosophy.
Prof. Spencer's exploring party
backed by the Australian govern
ment, went 10 Port Darwin, and from
there across TO Melville Island, then
they returned 10 Port Darwin aud
travelled south 200 miles, after which
they crossed continent 10 the
Gulf of Carpentaria. Among all the
tribes examined by the expedition
they found that the belief in reincar-
nation is universal
All OF these tribes are totem wor-
shippers. In one or two tribes along
the Roper river curious totemic
system was discovered. Among these
people a man must marry a woman
of a particular totem, but the children
take a totem different from that OF
either of the parents. For example.
a man OF the Rain totem must marry
woman OF the paddy-melon kanga-
roo totem. and their children are OF
the Euro Kangaroo totem. Again, q
Porcupine man marries a Lizard wom-
an. and their children are Bats.
Everywhere. too, among the tribes
visited. the women aud children be-
lieve that the sound of the bull-roar-
er Is the voice of great spirit who
comes TO take away the boys when
they are initiated.
Prof Spencer says he did not find
among any OF the tribes a trace OF
anything like a belief in a Supreme
Being. The explorer will remain
among the wild aborigines Of Melville
Island. until the last of February.

When Principal C. w. Randall, of one year ago continuous spelling contest, it is hardly likely anyone would have predicted the success which has attended the innovation. It has re- suited in such d decided betterment in the spelling ability of all the pupils of the Central school that the plan of Professor Randall is being discussed throughout Arizona and there is every prospect that something along the same order may soon be practiced in ali the schools of the state
 The 5 B class, taught by Miss Ruth McComas, easily won the contest for the third month of the present school year, with an average grade of 99 1-3 per cent. The class only missed twelve words out of 1900 Twenty seven pu- pis of the thirty six taking part made perfect grade of 100 per cent
 The entire school attained much higher average than was made in the same month last year. Last year the room that won this month under the same teacher averaged S4 and the en- tire school raised from a grade of S4 to 95. This shows in a fair way the increase in the efficiency of teaching this long neglected subject. These fig ures are the more startling when one stops to consider that in order to raise the average grade one per cent 80 children in the building must miss one less word Therefore to raise the grade eleven per cent there were 3630 less words missed this month than in the same month last year
