stalked up to the beach between the lines of admiring women, skulls held high. one would have thought from their proud appearance that they had brought home real trophies of war. A great fire was built on the beach by the women. and into this the heads would have been cast, if they had not been newly taken spells and left there until the flesh had been burned away. Around the fire the fighting men danced, sing ing, while the women sat about and watched, their bodies swaying to the musie. Then the skulls were placed in coconut leaf baskets and thrust on the top of four-foot poles set at regular intervals along the beach. Around these once more the wild dance swirled.

 RETURN OF THE HEADQUARTERS From A Napoleon of the Solomons,
 by Edward A. Salisbury, in Asia
 Magazine.
 After the make-believe head hunt which had seemed so real to it's parti- cipants, Gau. the Vella Lavella chief tain, took back number of captives with him. It had always been the custom to take prisoners, if possible, breaking their legs if they attempt ed to escape Captives were con sidered necessary, so that human sacrifices might be ready whenever the spirits demanded. The life of a prisoner in the Solomons was far different from what 1t was in most other lands: he was allowed to live freely with his captors sometimes for years, until the fatal day came when a head was necessary--then he was killed without compunction.
 shall never forget the sight of the ome-coming of the head hunt CTS. As the canoes appeared in the far distance, the women and children came down to the shore, waving their arms in greeting. As the ca noes drew near land, the men began to paddle very slowly, lifting the paddles high out of the water with each stroke and singing wild, mournful melody for their own dead. Then, at the end, they broke into pean of triumph and dashed the canoes almost up to the beach with terrific speed. Gau had had a num- Der of skulls of his former victims brought down from hls skull house in the mountains, and these. wrap ped in coconut leaves, were brought ashore by the warriors AS they

NAVAL PERSONNEL
TO TOTAL $4,000
Eighteen First Line Battle
Ships, 1880 Marines
Provided For.

Washington.-Th navy will have q
personnel of $4,000 during the next
fiscal year
the house passed the naval appropria-
ton bill, amended to provide for that
number The vote on the bill was
279 to IS. Prior to the final vote a
last effort to put through the $1,000
figure was defeated, 221 to 14S.
The bill as reported out by the ap-
preparation committee appropriated
funds for $1,000.
The contention of the administration
was that the reduction to $1,000 would
prevent this country from maintaining
the fleet ratio provided by the naval
reduction treaty, and would put the
country in third place as naval
power.
The bill carries $223,0OO,OO0 plus
$17,995, 900 necessary to pay the 10000
more men for which provision was
made The estimates on the navy
department were for $425, ,4S6, 900. The
appropriation for 1922 was $413, 3,239,-
600. The reduction is due to aban-
donment of the 1916 naval building
program and other economies made
possible by the naval limitation treaty.
The bill provides for eighteen first
line battleships and necessary auxil-
iary craft. 1t appropriates for 19,5O0
men in the marine corps.
The expenditure of 100000 of the
naval aeronautic fund for the devel-
opment of helium at the Fort Worth
plant was made certain Thursday
when the house adopted an amend
ment by Representative Lanham which
dealt with the matter directly. With
the 100000 voted in the army bill for
helium development, the action means
that the helium program will be $780,
900. In giving the total for air opera
tions to the navy the appropriation
committee developed from the naval
officers that helium was to share to
the extent indicated, but there has
been recent intimation that since the
lump appropriation was reduced to
about five and half million dollars,
helium, with other activities, would be
reduced somewhat.

The Genoa Conference.

Genoa.-The economic conference
Friday made a great stride forward.
The elimination of the Russo-German
treaty from the controversy and soviet
Russia's acceptance of the allied con-
ditions concerning foreign demands
and confiscated property of foreign
ers, produced a very definite hope
that the greatest congress European
statesmen ever held will accomplish
something real and tangible for the
reconstruction of Europe, including
Russia. The demands of the powers
which have been accepted include the
waving by Russia of her counter
claims. based on military Intervention,
recognition of war debts to the gov
ernments, with the understanding that
they will be considerably scaled down;
recognition of debts and financial OBJ
legations due to foreign nationals and
the right of foreigners to have con-
fiscated property returned to them or
to be given proper compensation for
it.

Observance Of Four
Texas Holidays Asked

Houston, Tex-Sons of the Republic
Of Texas, the first chapter Of which
was organized in Houston, feel that the
four significant days in the history of
Texas are not properly observed. They
have accordingly petitioned Governor
Neff to request by proclamation that
mayors of every Texas city and town

ally observed.
The four days are March 2. on which
the declaration of Texas independence
from Mexico was signed at Washing
ton, Tex; March s, on which fell the
massacre of the Alamo at San An
tonic; March 81, the day of the mas
sacre at Goliad, and April 81, the bat
tie of San Jacinto, which won free
dom for Texas.
The resolution is signed by o. M.

ty Chapter. of which Colonel Andrew

NOTED PRELATES IN LONDON
Been Familiar With the British
Metropolis.

The new pope, Plus XI, visited Lon
don as well as Oxford in early life,
in the latter place especially the great
Bodleian library naturally attracting
such great scholar. He was himself
librarian of the great Vatican library,
and known everywhere as booklover.
1t was said that the late Pope Leo
XIII knew his way about London bet
ter than a great many natives, as he
had spent much time there before be-
ing raised to the papacy, exploring
the slums and other problems in the
metropolis.
Pope Leo XIII was the only one Of
that exalted rank who ever sat in the
British house of commons and in the
distinguished strangers gallery, at
that. He also is said to have enjoyed
the hospitality of Lord Palmerston
under that distinguished statesman's
own roof. That was, of course, before
his exaltatiOn to the papacy.

See Wealth in Vanilla.

According to government authority,
the production of vanilla beans in
Mexico may become source of enor-
nous revenue. 1t is asserted that no
other country affords the opportunities
for successful vanilla growing in Mex
leo. 1t already ranks ahead of all
other countries in annual output of
the beans, it is declared, although as
yet very little attention has been paid
to the industry. In the region around
Tuxpam on the gulf coast the vanilla
plant is found all through the trop-
ical forests. 1t is a climbing orchid
and does not require any attention
beyond the gathering Of the fragrant
and valuable beans.

Jewelry demand continued brisk, the
business being we'll distributed in ell
sections Of the country. Buyers this
year are placing only small orders for
individual items, but they are buying a
wide assortment Of goods. Jewellers
remarked that this assortment buying
has caused better demand for the
higher priced lines. Silverware. both
plate and hollow ware, was bought
freely. The demand for diamonds is
80 great that practically every cutting
establishment In the city is working at
capacity. Two of the smaller cutting
establishments are actually working
overtime. Diamonds of first quality
this year bring prices 10 per cent
higher than those. prevailing at this
season last year. Canoes, corals and
pearls received considerable attention
from buyers last week. Jobbers re-
ported collections fair
