FOOD sUPERSTITIoNS.
Dyak Warriors Won't Eat Deer For
Fear of Becoming Timid.

Fear OF Becoming iImius
In rural Germany one still meets
with a superstition that he who eats
during a thunderstorm will be struck
by lightning. Abstaining from food
during an eclipse is common among
savages; also belief that in eating the
flesh of any animal one absorbs that
animals characteristics. Thus an In
dian tribe highly prizes tigers flesh as
food for men, but forbids women to
eat it lest 1t make them too aggressive.
In the Kongo women are forbidden
to eat birds of prey on the same princi-
pie, but are encouraged to eat frogs,
which the men on no account ever
touch. In the Caroline islands black
birds are a favorite dish with women,
but men must not eat them, because
IL one did and afterward climbed CO.
Goa tree he would surely fall to the
ground and be killed.
Among the Dyaks warriors must not
eat venison because it would make
them as timid as the deer. Fowls and
eggs are forbidden to women of Ban
tn tribe because on eating either a
woman would certainly hy into the
brush and never again be seen. Again,
the flesh of many animals is forbidden
because the animals themselyes-for
example, swine-are disagreeable to
the eye or have untidy habits.-Ex-
change.

MILEAGE BILLS INTRODUCED.
Proposed Measures Fix Passenger
Fares by Dividing State Into
Divisions.

Denyer.-Two bills to establish a
mileage charge for passenger rates
on railroads, bill for a constitution
al amendment allowing school districts
at their discretion to establish separ-
ate schools for colored children, bill
licensing and placing under bond all
commission merchants handling farm,
dairy, orchard or garden produce,
wares or merchandise, and several
bills to protect the health Of children
We're introduced in the House Of Rep
resentatiyes.
The bill for the segregation Of col
ored children in schools was intro.
duced by Representative Warren M.
Persons Of Colorado Springs. There
are many people from Texas, Okla
homa and other southern states WHO
spend good part Of, or even the en-
tire year. at Colorado Springs. Many
prominent men there favor such q
law. Some of the colored people
themselves are urging 1t, as they
claim that their children are discrim.
mated against under present condi-
tions.
Representative Young is author OF q
bill which establishes an eastern and
western division of the state for pur-
poses Of regulating passenger rates on
trains. An arbitrary line from north
to south running through Fort Collins,
Boulder, Denver, Colorado Springs,
Pueblo and Trinidad is established. In
all territory east Of this line the fare
is to be 2 cents mile; in all terri
tory west OF 1t. or the mountainous
region, the fare is to be cents a
mile.
Representative Sweets bill estab-
fishes the same geographical line and
places the mileage in the eastern zone
at 2 cents per mile. In the mountain.
GUS regions the mileage is based upon
the earning capacity of the railroads
per mile. In no place shall the mile
age charge be more than 4 cents,
where the earnings are less than ST..
900 per mile. The minimum charge
for mountain roads will be 3 cents per
mile. For roads which are mixed and
which do not segregate their earnings,
the charge will be 31s cents a mile
where the earnings are under $1,000
per mile. and 3 cents per mile where
the earnings are over $1,000 pen mile.

ture. The body voted to postpone in.
definitely the House resolution call
Ing for a joint session of the assembly

luton of the same kind.

ment were Senators Cornforth, Hay.
den, William G.. Robinson, Stephan,
Weiland and Williams, all Republi-
cans.
Mr.. Nixon, who was candidate for
lieutenant governor on the Progress
i've ticket, claimed that the assembly
should have declared him elected
when 1t canvassed the vote for state
officers, as his vote was the largest Of
living candidates.
Colonel B. f. Montgomery, Demo
crat. who received the largest vote,
had died before the canvass. but was
declared elected.

make ruling OH arguments submitted
on the lieutenant governor successor

the bill introduced by Senator vii
liams to submit a constitutional

Senators Williams. Van Tilborg
Joyce and Pearson all spoke in favor
of the bill. They contended that the
people did not have a chance at the
election to study the merits OF tht
measure because OF the multiplicity o.
