ATTEMPTS SUICIDE

HIT BY WISE FRAUDS
Travellers in Orient Are Victims
of SWindiers.
Favorite Means of Livelihood Among
Minor OffciaIs-AIso Practice
Money and Ticket Frauds.

Constantinople. = Swindling travel
ers in connection with passport vises
has become one of the favorite means
of livelihood of minor officials in the
Orient and Balkan countries.
Mrs. j. H. X Polly, wife of an
American business man living in Lon
don, recently was victim of this
fraud while travelling on the Orient
express, running from here to Paris.
When the train was passing from Bull
garia into Serbia an official in uniform
representing himself as q Serb inSpec-
tor. demanded to see her passports,
Informed her that the wise obtained
at the Serb legation in ConstantinopIe
was invalid and ordered her to leave
the train. After protestations, he con-
sented to accept $50 to let her con-
tinue her journey. She had already
paid $50 for vises of her passport.
Before leaving Constantindple many
travellers are obliged to give large
sums to get vises which later may be
declared invalid in this manner.
Since refugees from Russia are not
wanted in other countries, where they
may become public charges, few pass
ports are granted them officially, but
they are furnished with proper papers
for sums ranging from $50 to 500, AS
these refugees are poor, they are often
obliged to spend all but their travel
ing expenses for vises.
Another form of swindle results
from the general European laws
against taking large sums Of silver,
gold or paper money of a given cOun-
try into another.
To prevent such traffic governments
place officials at frontiers, who de-
mand of each traveller the sum of for
cign cash on his person. If he declares
anything above the equivalent of SO,
or some such modest sum, it is taken
and q receipt given which he may cash
in money of the country on leaving it.,
Sometimes the inspector merely peck
cts the money, or will take bride to
let the traveller proceed with all his
cash.
Americans of experience have
adopted the plan of carrying only
checks or drafts and thus avoid this
annoyance.
The oldest form of travel swindle
takes the form of trains stopping due
to lack of coal. Then the train crew
plays cards until the passengers take
up a collection with which to buy coal.
This swindle has been improved upon.
An official takes up tickets and then Il
second official, who denOunces the first
one as fraud, makes the passengers
pay Il second time.

INDIANS M md SKULLS
Prehistoric Medicine Men of
South America Were SkiIIfuI.
Stone or Obsidian and Covered
Hole With Gourd.

New YOrk.-Prehistoric Indians Of
South America had crude medicine
men who removed splinters of arrow
heads and stone bludgeons from
wounded warriors by cutting through
the skull with knives of stone or OBJ
sidian and other simple instruments
wrought from copper and bronze.
Sometimes the patient lived: frequent
ly he went to the happy hunting
grounds.
These uncomfortable treatments of
serious casualties from tribal skirm-
ishes still continue in remote areas of
Bolivia. Evidence of this has been
gathered by field workers from the
I American Museum of Natural History.
OF nearly 1000 skulls collected in
Bandelier for exhibition in the mu-
scum, about per cent has been Oper-
ated upon. To surgeons the practice
is known as trephining. 1t consists
of removing a disk or button Of bone
from the skull with a saw called
trcphne.
Complex fracture of the skull with
depression of the bony plates must
have been common occurrences dur
ing the ancient tribal wars when clubs
headed with stone and copper along
with sings, the 'bola" and the "lIiui"
were offensive weapons, said the re-
ports of the museums Investigators.
A natural procedure, they Opined,
with victims who survived skull frac-
lures must have been attempts to re-
move the splinters of bone that
pricked the brain, or to cut out frag-
ments pressing upon it.
Warlike clans fight internationally
even today in the wilds of Bolivia and
skull fractures are common. Other
heads are perforated now and then in
the bacchanals and festivals whoOped
up occasionally with great quanti-
ties of intoXicants the investigators
reported.
When the laughter and the frce-for-
alls quiet down, the medicine men
get out their sharp pocket knives and
make inciSionS into the injured skulls
of the sufferers. frequently covering
the aperture with gourd. During the
operation they scrape around the
wound with Il chiSel.
Modern anesthetics are unknown to
the medicine men. They put their pa
tient into insensibility by constant
use of the coca" plant. This also is
employed for healing purposes and is
commonly applied to wounds, bruises
and Commissions.
