 Another quaint belief of the Ban yoro Is that once a man has been enthroned as king of that country, his person becomes sacred. His food Is restricted to milk and beef, which is obtained from a special and sacred herd of cows which are al- ways kept apart from the other herds.
 The king of Unyoro never permits himself to grow old or his faculties to become impaired. When he thinks himself likely to become seri- ously i'll. he calls together a countil of state, arranges the affairs of the Kingdom with the principal chiefs without giving them any reason for thinking that he is about to die and dismisses them to carry out his instructions.
 This important business safely &C., complished. the king returns to his royal palace and summons his chief queen-they have many queens in their harem-and orders her to bring him a cup of powerful native poison with the same grand manner as he might use in asking for A bottle of milk, Then he drinks the contents of the poison cup at a gulp. and in few moments he is dead.
 When the reigning monarch is comfortably dead by his own act, the chief queen calls to the palace one or two of the cabinet ministers It Is their duty to prepare the royal corpse for burial. For as long a period of time as possible the death of the king is kept secret. Each day the royal milk and royal beef are brought to the palace as custom ordains. and official callers are in- formed that the king has a slight cold in the head and can receive no one. In the meantime, the cabinet ministers and the council of state are making private arrangements to guard the kings corpse and to pro- tect the sacred cattle during tbe wars that are inevitable when the kings death is known.

 The native tom-toms beat a vlgor- ous tattoo until such time as Colonel Roosevelt had actually taken his seat under the shady banda, then the drums ceased, and the ceremony had concluded. Inside of the mess room, these natives had spread a white cloth under the grass thatch, and this made 1t very cool. As in all other camps, we found every thing spotlessly clean.

 Only one more camp now inter vened between us and Hoima, and there I hoped to obtain relief from the great pain after Mearns had op- erated upon me.
 The Banyoro people are among the most curious races in the whole of equatorial Africa. They are generally spoken of as the "coW people," for they are powerful clans men whose wealth and religion and health is all intimately connected with the peaceful domestic COW.
 They have many strange customs and beliefs. It is considered a de- gradation for Banyoro men to dig or till the soil, so mink and meat are their most staple forms of diet.
 A few days after we had entered the Unyoro country, we noticed a number of shrines in every direction. Our inquiries elicited the tnforma- ton they were ghost shrines. When sickness comes to the Banyoro people, they say that 1t Is one of their enemies-the ghosts of their ancestors-who is attacking them, so they proceed to capture the evil spirit.
 Ghosts, they believe, like hot cooked meat. Therefore, meat is cooked in a large cooking pot near the dwelling hut of thesick man or woman. As soon as the pleasant aroma of the meat reaches the dwelling, the Banyoro believe that the evil spirit enters the cooking pot to enjoy the feast. As soon as the

Washington, Oct. 4.-Department of justice officials denied emphat- ically today that they were seeking to return John Wesley DeKay. for mer Providence, R. l., banker, from London, to prosecute him for al- legged political activities instead of for participation in commission of a,crime In connection with the fail ure of the Atlantic National Bank of Providence in 1913.

POTATOES RETURN
50 CENTS A: :BUSHEL
Farmers Hope Shipments to
England Will Help
Prevent Losses.

The sailing from Portland, Me.
OF the steamship Carimgowan with
10 carloads of potatoes (about 5000
bushels). for Newcastle -on-Tyne
marks the first of a series of ship
ments to England by the Maine
Potato Growers Exchange and in
dependent shippers of Maine, accord
ing to the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture The United
Kingdom does not normally import
large quantities of potatoes. but the
reduced crop this year. which was
even less than the small crop of
1928, will require increased impor-
tations from other countries
Shipments From Virginia.
Some Canadian shippers have al
ready taken advantage OF the mar
ket situation in the United Kingdom
and to date 10,S10 bags of $50 lbs.
each have been exported via Hall
fax. Export shipments from the
United States to England so far this
year consist of 46.250 bushels. These
shipments were from Virginia and
took place during the month of July.
While this new market may be re-
garded as temporary, n foreign outlet
for even limited quantities of Maine
potatoes would greatly tend to re-
lieve the distress Of the potato grow
ers in Maine who had this Fall failed
TO sell profltably their crop in the
domestic market, the department
says.
The British crop this year is Off
cially estimated at 100, $3.50 bush
els. decrease of 2,777,000 bushels
from 1929.
Profit Margin Small.
British market reports for the last
week of November show that the
better grades of English potatoes
were then selling from SO cents to
sl.49 bushel. This is about so per
cent higher than a year ago. The
best quality Dutch potatoes were
selling from 50 cents TO s1.C7 bush
el. With Maine potatoes selling at
30 cents a barrel, or 80 cents a bush
ell. at the point of production, the
present price differential between
Maine and England seems attractive
A part of this differential will, Of
course. be absorbed by the cost OF
transportation from the producing
area in Maine to England
The shipment which left week
ago came from Caribou, a distance of
332 miles from Portland. The rail-
road freight rate for this haul alone
amounted to 391z cents a hundred
pounds, or about "a cents a bushel.
