QUEER CUSTOMS IN B0RNE0
Norwegian Explorer Writes of Some
Of His Experiences in
That Island.

Quaint customs in darkest Borneo
are described by DR.. Carl LumhOltz,
Norwegian traveller. Doctor Lumholtz
says, In part:
We met six natives who had been
hunting the rhinoceros in the west.
The horn of the animal when pow
dered is in great demand by the Chi
nese as a medicine, and fetches high
price. Such an expedition may last for
two months. The hunters carry no pro-
visions. and live on sago and what
animals they can kill. When thsre is
a scarcity of food they frequently go
three or four days merely on water.
and stay the pangs Of hunger with
tobacco. was tsld that a man would
tackle a rhinoceros with a spear
single-handed, though the beast Is
very difficult to XII.
One day We were surprised by the
arrival of q Saputan chief with two
companions in a boat. They brought
with them dog, blowpipe for darts,
and recently killed pig.
l ENOl ldI
we camped upon the Upper kasaO
river, which is inhabited by Saputans.
They are a crude, friendly people,
who, hundred years ago, were mere
cave-dwellegs in the mountains to the
east.
| At Saputan I had the good fortune
to take cinematograph picture of the
ceremony of the piercing of a chiefs
ears. 1t is their privilege to wear a
tigers tooth inserted In a hole in the
upper part Of each ear.
The chief was seated and q board
was placed behind his head. Friends
and supporters assisted in the opera
ton, which consisted Of an empty rife
cartridge being forced through his ear
Blood streamed down, and the man
apparently Of a very robust type
seemed to be near <sinting. A medi.
cine man was hurrfedly summoned
and he clapped his hands over the ears
and then, opening them. produced q
small stone. This he threw into the
river.
| / was told that this stone was the
supposed cause of the chiefs illness
Fhe scene was brought to a dramatic
conclusion by the exhausted chief be
ing ANONYMOUSLY carried away on the
back of a young man. During the aft.
ernoon more pebbles were produced by
the same sleight Of hand, and a pig
was killed In order to appease the bad
spirit which had caused the chiefs Ill
ness.
The Dyaks Of the Upper Mahakkan
are friendly to strangers, and as the
great rapids down the river form q
natural barrier they seldom receive
visitors, and are little changed by out
side influence. The Mohammedan Ma.
lays, for instance, have never beer
able to extend their influence above
the rapids.
Luckily for the Dyaks, and incident
ally for ethnology, these natives pos
sess fine muscular development. The
women are well formed and move with
grace and freedom. The headhuntine
part Of the native religion has beer
practically suppressed by Dutch influ.
ence, and so far as I could ascertain
the last case Of the kind In this region
was at least five years ago.

America Fills the Need.

For years 1t has been the custom for
American manufacturers to obtain
each season a large number Of. Paris
garments and readapt them to the
needs Of American women. Paris has
always taken the lead in suggesting
possible styles. But the war has
brought American designs to the fore,
although II has by no means served to
discourage Paris artists. Now many
garments wholly American are being
shown. and the fact has been clearly
proved this country need never In
future play second fiddle. The fact
that fabrics and trimmings are scarce
and that wool. especially, must be con-
served has probably worked 10 the ad-
vantage Of American designers and
would-be designers. For simplicity
has been the rule.

Worlds Debt to Arabians.

The world is indebted to the Ara
bans for greater number Of sciences
than today is generally admitted. The
Arabs were in some sort the discov-
erers of botany and chemistry. Agri-
culture was studied by them with a
knowledge Of climate, soil and the
growth of plants. From the eighth 70
the eleventh century the Arabs estab-
lished medical schools IN the principal
cities of their dominions and pub
lished valuable works on medical sub
jects.

ster mountain climax of the ma

is the chief. This is no One-day hike
with a luxurious public camp at the
other end of IT. 1t means taking
enough camping-out equipment along
to enable you TO spend three or four
nights in the open. But after all that
Is no great matter, for 1t so seldom
rains in the Sierra that tents will not
be necessary; comfortable sleeping
bags, a coffee pot, few tins, and a
plentiful supply Of food will be all
that is necessary-besides, Of course,
a good guide. All equipment, includ-
Ing guide and horses, may be got in

The first night out from the valley
should be spent IN the celebrated
Tuolumne Meadows where you may
have plenty Of trout for supper for
the catching; the Tuolumne Is a capt.

LyeIPs Inner Shrine.
After an early trout breakfast, your
outfit will travel up the river to the
mouth Of Lyell Fork, and, swinging
around Johnson peak, will follow
that beautiful stream miles up its long
scenic canyon. Past Rafferty, peak
and Parsons peak on your right, and
skirting long Kuna Crest with its
frothing cascades on your left, you will
find yourself at lunch time at the head
Of the canyon facing lofty shelves of
granite, far beyond which loom glacier
shrouded peaks. These, as you will see
presently, are Mount Lyell, 1900 feet,
and its flanking giants, Mcclure noun
tain on the north, and Rodgers peak
| on the south.
Scrambling up the granite shelf and
over Donohue pass, your horses carry
you through vast basin Of tumbled
granite encircled at it's majestic eli
max by a titanic rampant of nine sharp
giistening peaks and hundreds Of spear
like points, the whole cloaked in enom-
nous shrouds of SHOW.
Presently-just how you do not
know, so breathless Is your gaze ahead
the granite spurs inclose you. And
presently your horses scrambling over
impossible walls and shelves. looms
above you a mighty glistening wall
which apparently forbids further ap-
proach to Lyell's inner shrine. But
even this the agile horses surmount
and you find yourself In the SUBMITS
very embrace, facing glaciers and a
lakelet Of robin's-egg blue. This Is the
Sierra's climax!

Passing south along the John Muir

Leaving Thousand Island lake the

Or, far better, IL you can spare the

again, an hour or two in Lyelrs inner

WIFE OF WAR SECRETARY
 BAKER AT LITTLE ROCK

Little Rock, May 1O.-Mrs. Newton D. Baker, wife of the secretary of war, was the center of attraction at reception given yesterday afternoon in the executive chambers at the state capitol. Several hundred ladies who had been attending the General Fed eration at Hot Springs, stopped in Little Rock for the day, and were en- tertained by the local ladies.
 The reception by Gov. and Mrs. Brough was most elaborate and brilliant affair, and monopolized all attention at the state capitol. In ad- dition to Gov. and Mrs. Brough and Mrs. Baker, there were in the receiv- ing line Gen. and Mrs. S. D. Sturgis, Mayor and Mrs. Chas. E. Taylor, and many other distinguished ladies and gentlemen.

ATTENDS CONFERENCE OF
 FUEL ADMINISTRATORS

Little Rock, May 10.-L. Garrett, representing H. c. Couch, federal fuel administrator for Arkansas, returned yesterday from Kansas City, where he attended an important conference of the State fuel administrators for the seventeenth zone, comprising the states of Arkansas, Missouri, Kansas, Oklahoma, Texas, Nebraska, Iowa and Colorado.
 w. E. Hope, head of the state or ganization of the National fuel ad- ministration, at Washington, met with the state representatives
 One of the most important things done was to secure an agreement with the mine operators for a summer re- duction in the mine price of slack, as had previously been granted on mine run and lump coal.
 This reduction is 45 cents for May, 30 cents for June, and 15 cents for July. Slack that now sells at the mine at $2.S5, in the Arkansas bitum- inous district, will sell at $40 for May, $2.55 for June, and $2.7O for July.
 This reduction is made as an in- ducement to the steam users to lay in their supply of slack at once, just as the domestic consumers have been placing their orders for lump.
 The operators had been confronted with the proposition of having more orders for domestic coal than they could fill, and practically no orders for slack. Now that this concession has been made, and the fuel administra- tion has agreed to use it's influence for the placing of slack orders, the operators agree that they will fill all orders for domestic consumption with out delay.
