LEADING OPTICIAN,

OF AFRICA.
One of the Irwin County
Colony Recently Return
ed Tells of Bitter Ex
perience.
From the Ocilla Star.
I.ast Saturday Hal Scott, his wife,
Rllodil Scott, their three children,
their daughtei-ln huv and her son,
arrived In Ocilla from the west coast
of Africa.
In 1902 Howell Fuller 1 and eight
others returned from Africa. They
wore part of the little colony‘o? fifty-
six negroes who left Ocilla January
1, 1902, for (he west coast, of Africa,
and through, the aid of white friends
were enabled to return the same
year.
Hal Scott and Ills family returned
after an absence of about four years
in tile Dark Continent!
A Star representative had a short
talk with Hal Wednesday. He Is a
preacher and has always had the
reputation of being truthful. We
have not space for the picture he
drew of his fatherland, but will give
the most Important points. He said:
“For thirty, years It was In my
head to go to Africa, and when I be
came able I went. After nearly four
years over there I am prepared to
say, emphatically, that I do not like
the climate, the people or the coun
try. The natives are low In civiliza
tion and will steal every opportunity
they get. We couldn’t understand
them, and of course didn’t like them,
"Bishop Turner and Booker T.
Washington, who are advising the
negroes to go to Africa, west or
south, are doing their race a great
injury—those of them, at least, who
take their advice. When they go
there they will find employment hard
to get. Farm labor is paid from 12
to 25 cents a day, while bacon is 25
cents a pound, flour $16 a barrel, and
everything else in proportion.
“Yes, I have eaten monkeys. Shot
them out of trees just like we do
squirrels, mid their meat Is very
sweet—better to the taste than ba-
cln, though t could hardly eat it for
thinking of the monkey.
“Soon after we reached Africa we
were attacked with what the natives
called ’John Bull fever,’ and, first and
last, this killed twenty-six out of the
fllty-six that le’t Ocilla.
“Hunger was no stranger to us.
Many a night my wife wet her pillow
with tears crying for bread. Caaava
and rice were used for bread, arid wo
had to depend on monkeys and other
wild beasts for our meat. The
swamps cover all the land there as
thick, or., more so, than are the
swamps along the 'Cooehee, and It
was very difficult to get within gun
shot of the wild animals.
"I am done with Africa forever.
Old Irwin will be my home till I die,
and I and my family are rejoicing to
be once more among our good white
friends.
“With the nine detained In London,
we are all out of Africa except five,
who are scattered about along the
west coast, some of them six hun
dred miles apart, but all living so
far as I know.
"England Is trying to grow cotton
In South Africa, and she wants la
borers who understand cultivating It.
I desire to warn my race against the
schemes to induce them to go there,
where the wages will he small, the
climate destructive of health, and
where they will have to work for
white men Just as they do here, only
they will work them nearly to death
and pay them wages hardly sufficient
to sustain life. Better slay here and
work for the people you know, who
treat you kindly and will not let you
suffer If they know It.”
Hal can not say enough against
Africa. It has been a costly lesson
to him In several ways, but as he
had been suffering with the “ever for
thirty years, the cure could be made
’only in the way it was. He does not
believe his race will ever return to
Africa.
A Grim Tragedy -
Is dally enacted in thousands of
homes, as death claims, In each one,
another victim of Consumption or
Pneumonia, But when Coughs and
Colds are properly treated, the trag
edy is averted. F. G. Huntley, of
Oklahoma, Ind., writes: "My wife
had the consumption, and three doc
tors gave her up. Finally, she took
Dr. King’s New Discovery for Con
sumption, Coughs and Colds, which
cured her, and today she is well and
strong.” It kills the germs of all dis
eases. One dose relieves. Guaran

8CIENCE PREVENTS BALDNESS.
The Fatal Genu and Ita ltcmcdy Non
Facta of Science.
It IS the rarest thing In the world fo\
a man to be necessarily bald. No man
whoso hair is not dead at the roots, need
be bald if he will use Newbro’s Horpl-
olde, the new scalp antiseptic. Herpl-
oide destroys the germ that cute the halt
off at the root; and deans the ecalp of
dandruff and leaves It In a perfectly
healthy oondltlon. Mr. Mannett, In the
Maryland Block, Butte, Mont., was en
tirely bald. In lesa than a month Herpl-
clde lmd removed the enemies of hair
growth, and nature did Its work by cov
ering his head with thick hair an Inch
long, and in six weeks he had a normal
suit of hair. Sold by leading druggists.

A Certain Cure For Croup.
When a child shows symptoms of
croup there Is no time to experiment
with new remedies, no matter how
highly they nmy be recommended.
There Is one preparation that, can nl-
ways he depended nupon. It has been
in use for many years and has never
been knmvn to fall, viz: Chamber
lain's Cough Remedy. Give It and a
quick cure Is sure to follow. Mr. M.
F. Compton, of Market, Texas, says
of It, “1 have used Chamberlain’s
Cough Remedy in severe eases of
croup with ray children and can truth
fully say It. always gives prompt re

Science, o? Bel! ttlngliig.
It was Sunday mornbvt. and the hell’
ringer had Just finished ringing the
chimes that called the godly to church.
“Bell ringing Is n science. Did you
know that?” he Bald. "It Is called
campanology, and there are abstruse
and technical terms In It, like ‘Kent
treble bob,’ 'Stcdman cinques,’ ‘double
court bob,’ ‘dodges,’ ‘noils' and 'stln-
goos.' Each of these terms defines a
certain phase or kind of bell ringing.
In England there Is a society, the Cen
tral Council of Bell Ringers, tlint every
cnmpanologlBt desires ardently to be
long to. Maybe you think bell ringing
Is simple? Do you know wbnt a peal
Is? A peal In ringers’ parlance Is a
