Brutal Ouarantines.

A midsummer madness Is upon
the country roundabout New York.
Reports from the cities and vii
lagos of the neighborhood read like
stories of the old shotgun quaran-
tines of the yellow fever South.
Unreasoning panic reigns. Sense
less fear dispfaces the ordinary
feelings of humanity and the ordi-
nary considerations of deceucy
among human beings one for an
other. We read of tired woman
and children turned back to the
boats and trains that have brought
them for holidays from the big
city; of summer colonies warned to
depart from their bungalow homes;
of hours of detention In sultry
railway stations; of refugees refused,
of excursions barred, even of busi-
ness men on Communication lines
forced to wait on red tape pro-
cesses of certified coming and go
Ing. For the greater part of shis
stir and trouble there is no excuse
whatever. New York is not a
plaguestricken city. 1t Is not
radiating centre of infection or
contagion. It Is not even in the
grip of widespread epidemic. As
a corporate body. 1t is far less dis
turbed over the situation than the
towns which have brutally put up
bars against its people, New

Sunday School Convention.

The County Sunday School As
soclation held its annual conven.
ton at Port Gibson Friday and
Saturday. All of the white schools
OF town were well represented, but
on account of the continued rains

Homes for about fifty visiting DEL
egates bad been provided, and the

they were unable to entertain many
visitors.

good, every number being excel

HEAD HUNTERS GETTING BUSY
Natives Of Solomon Island Take Ad.
vantage Of War to Gather ,
Tropics.

At first sight there does not seem
to be very close connection between
the war in Europe and head hunting
in the Solomon islands. Nevertheless,
the one arises from the other.
Previous to the outbreak of the
war, according to Vancouver Worlds
Sydney IN. s. W. correspondent, Brit
ish, and occasionally German war
ships patrolled the islands and en-
deavored to keep down cannibalism
among the natives, who are largely of
Papuan or Maiaysian stock. How
ever, the requirements for the trans
port of troops led to the recall of the
British warships-and the happy head
hunter has been free to follow his own
devious courses.
In one raid made by a mountain
tribe upon small village near the
coast no less than &c heads were Sc
cured. No punishment followed be-
cause the whites were unable to Or
ganiZe in time. AS a consequence
the raids are growing more dangerous,
and although as yet, no Europeans
have been attacked, planters have con-
stantly to keep on. their guard.

Only Moistened His Lips.

Omer Scudder, Columbus real es'
tate and insurance agent, told some OF
the other business men who have Of.
fees in the Bassett building that he
was hot. They agreed that they were
just as hot rs he was.
Il can eat all the ice cream you
fellows are willing to buy" Scudder
declared.
The others made up GO cents and
sent out for half gallon of cream.
They had a notion that Scudder would
eat about a quart after which they
would divide the remaining quart
among themselves. Scudder surround
ed the entire half gallon Of Ice cream,
smacked his lips and asked them
whether they were not going to get
him enough ice cream for a real taste.
The business men looked at each 9TH

Russia's Natural Roads.

Russia Is almost roadless land. 1t
is inconceivable to the foreign visitor
who has never left the beaten track of
the railways, in Russia haw a great en-
pire can have subsisted so long and SO
successfully without even pretense at
roads. The secret lies in the fact that
for five or six months in the year ma
ture herself provides roads over the
greater part of Russia-admirable,
smooth, glossy rOadways over hard
worn snow.
The traffic is further cheapened over
these roads by the substitution Of q
sledge-runner for the wheel and axle.
This brings the cost of land carriage
as near the cheapness of water-bOrne
freight as possible and it is the princi-
pal reason why Russia in the twentieth
century is still roadless land.
