WARRIORS OF ASSAM.
A Missionary’s Life in a Corner
of Hindostan.
A People Who Ornament Their Houses
with Human Skulls.
“I was sent to Assam,” said I)r. E. ftV.
Clark, a missionary, to a reporter of
the Washington Bepullican, under the
auspices of the American Baptist Mission¬
ary union, of Boston, Mass, Myself and
wife were the first white people to set
foot in Assam, which is a small valley six
tv-fivc miles in width and .000 miles in
length, and has about 3,000,000 of popu
lation.
“It is situated in the northwestern
part of Hindoos tan and is an English
/" -.si on. The inhabitants of the Naga
Hills are wild mountaineers, living
around the summits of the mountains.
Up to five years ago these people were in¬
dependent; the great wars of India never
succeeded in subjecting them. They de¬
light in war and are barbarous as are
American Indians. In the same mariner
as our Indians take the scalp the Naga
warriors take the head.”
“ Tliry'n: not head-eater^?” murnr.ured
the scribe, with a shudder, wondering if
the doctor’s Jong life in that country had
not led him to partake of the Assam cus¬
toms.
“No ” continued the doctor, “They
are called head cutters, and they orna¬
ment their houses with long strings of
skulls of captives as tokens of their prow¬
ess. Unlike our Indians, they cultivate
the soij and entertain the highest re-peet
toward the women. Any obscene talk
in the presence of a woman is severely
punished. They work hard for their liv¬
ing, knowing if they do not they must
perish. Their homes consist of rude
bamboo houses with leaf roof.
“Aledicine is not known, nnd they
fancy nil sickness or evil that happen to
them is because some deity Inis been dis¬
pleased. lh-nre tile* blood of animals is
abed as n sacrifice to app rise, the indig
riant god. This sacrifice first commences
with n fowl, then u pig, and lastly cattle;
if long continued it sometimes impover¬
ishes a whole family. The general name
for deity is ‘soouugrani. ’ There are no
special names for their deities, us they
worship it house, site of a house, etc.
All debts must be paid; they have not
learned bow to repudiate.
“Of sin they have a strong impression.
Frequently tiiitenantcd houses are seen,
nil possessions in the house having been
abandoned. The idea is that it is sinful
to steal goods thus left. When some
member of a family is killed by a tiger,
by drowning or by the falling of a tree,
these nre considered sinful persons, too
polluted to be even touched.
“Amoim the hill people there is no

’
appearance they fire much like the Chin
esc, but nre much more museulnr nnd
hardy. There is a line Held for gospel
teaching among them. When 1 first
went among the Assamese the English
were scared, but afterword rendered eve
tv assistance, because they found wo
were establishing peace on their border.
“Up to the present time there have
been four villages largely Christianized j |
and many converts made. There is no
written language. After many years of
labor 1 succeeded in "i umig to vmting
in their language n eollectlon of hymns ;
and school hooks.
Tbo doctor exhihted the first book !
printed in Assamese. It is a translation j
of a chapter of the Bible, translated by
the doctor, and printed on a little Amer¬
ican press sent from Boston to the town
of Moiling.
“And all the letters have, but one
ioiiiul apiece, continued Dr. (’lark, “and
the lan^uaifc is in some respects, easier to
acquire on that account. The chief
towns in Assam are liohaty, Nowyong,
Tczpor, Sihsagor and Dihroogur, which
is the head of steam navigation of the
Brahamapootru river, which was our
nearest government station, though forty
mile" away, and only reached by paths,
There arc no roads, and all travel is on
the back of elephants.”
A lVrsbln Game.
There seems to be as great a dearth of
games among the youth as among the
grown people in Persia, still they may bo
seen winning walnuts from each other by
games very similar to the marble-play¬
ing of the American and English youth.
A favorite game appears to l>* placing
each a certain number of walnuts along
u marked line at a sufficient distance
apart to allow of another one to pass be¬
tween without touching.
The line is formed near the base of a
low wall. They then take turns in
knocking the bouse walnut off the wall
so that il rolls through the line, and any
nuts dislodged from the scratch are con¬
sidered won and transferred to the win
nor's pocket, Hobble-de hoys of twen
tv are often seen playing this game of
walnuts, as also pitch-a id-toss for eop
m rs. Squabbles are of frequent occur
reneu, but lighting seldom results, for

K Thousand Dollar Moth.
It is by no means the most beautiful or
striking in color, for it is painted, as you
may say, in a ‘■ingle color of grayish
brown, though in many, many tints o.
that color. Its form is the more wonder
fill, for its secondary or hinder wings
reach back into long tails an eighth of
an inch wide and over four inches long,
so that the insect measures about seven
inches from head to tip of tails, and be
tween four and five inches across. It is
of the general shape of what is known as
our luna moth, th4 large greenish white
tailed moth; but in the luna the tails are
only two inches long. I do not think
any other moth or butterfly has go great
eccentricity of form. But the most won¬
derful thing of all is that it is the only
i insect of the kind ever found.
Thirteen years a<r<> a son of Prof. Mey*
; caught it barber shop in Itio Jan¬
er in a
eiro, into which it had flown during the
evening. He sent it to his father, who
had been a collector for many years.
When the box containing it was opened,
arid the great entomologist dropped his
eyes upon it, he almost fainted wi’h de
light, and at once was offered a hundred
dollars for it.
The news of ths discovery of it spread
rapidly everywhere among collectors, and
diligent search has been made ever since
to find another of its kind, but in vain.
It lands alone, perhaps the last of an al¬
most extinct species, but surely the only
one that rests in air on entomologist’s
pin. This fact that it defies duplication,
| together with its kingly form, will help
1 you to remove the shudder that passes
• over you as you hear its name, Jchovali,
for by this name the princely insect is
known among scientists —Endamonia Je¬
hovah. It should be stated, however,
that its happy owner did not intend giv
! ing it 1his name, but somehow the real
name, Jupiter , was changed into Jehovah
\ when it was being catalogued, and so it
j lias remained.
It is hard to place a value upon this
precious insect, for Dr. Meyer values it
j ! almost us his own life; but I have been
j told a thousand dollars would not induce
i him to part with it. Wo can believe this

Hens and Humorists.
A certain chord of sympathy exists
between these two species, laughable the hen and arti¬ the
humorist. Columns of
cles have been written by the latter upon
the former’s predilection to produce on a
falling market, and stop the production
when the price of her commodity was go¬
ing up. But beneath the wit and sar
ea.sm the observing reader will have
noted a strong undercurrent of admira¬
tion on the part of the humorist for the sa
gaeitv of the American hen in endeavor¬
ing^ Then, hull or again, bear when the market her attempts as she saw at
tip brick,
hatching out door knobs, fire and
brownstone fronts have been referred to,
there is the same undertone indicative
of the writer’s respect for the patience
of that hen.
That humorists Jove hens there is no
doubt. Now there is George Peck, for
example. For years he has devoted the
best of his genius to his llenery, and he
c arries his love so far that he will never
taste chicken soup until he has been as¬
sured that the fowl of which it is com¬
posed was a member of the masculine per
-uasion. Bob Burdette is superstitious
in the matter of hens. To see a pure
white hen, acts like inspiration Rise upon and Bob, Fall j
and it is said that “The
of the Mustache ” was evolved on that
dav when a white hen strayed into his
kitchen. A jet black rooster is liis Ne¬
mesis, and no power on earth could
make him start on a journey or ascend
the platform the day he has passed one
with itfi pointed toward him. Even
rough Bill N ve is the everlasting friend
of the hen. lie owes his start in life to
a pair of barn yard fowls whom he caught
t matching up his garden “sass.” This
made Bill mad. Swearing double-barreled a plaintive
swear, and seizing his but
persuader, lie got a bead on them;
ere he tired his educated eye caught the
glimpse of something bright. Approach¬
ing the spot he discovered that the fowls
Rad laid bare a soil laden with through gold dust.
Now, any one wishing a humor ticket
to eternity by the wild Western -
route had better speak disparagingly of j
the hen in the presence of Bill Nye. G.
Whitaker, it is said, saves all the tid-bits
from his table for a superannuated in his. back hen
which has made, her home
yard. Mark Twain points with pride to
the portrait of a hen, now dead, which
he captured in the act of scratching And up
the resting-place of overheard seven sleepers.
I have accidentally humorist has that the call a cer¬
tain Pliilapelphia with hen which sleeps on
his bretliern headboard a pet bed, and will
on the of his
never go to roost until its master has
come home. We admire while we pity
that hen.
These and many more eases that could
be cited, prove the assertion that Iiumor
ists love hens. Now let us see what
there is in common between them. A
hen is very tender and fresh when first
hatched. So is the humorist; hut they
both become hardened and toughened
with age and experience. Hens scratch
fnr r flu.;., iltn'nrr- wIiopp ‘1 iy tlir- bnmnriKf
who has had i to scratch mighty . . hard, . ,
not
at that? The hen pecks; the humorist is
very often henpecked. A hen watches T
over her brood with a mother’s eye. A
humorist with fatherly ore'wafted pride, watches
his young t as they about

cations, and it makes him sad and wer

which meets with public favor. Hens
lay. Humorists lie. Whoever has read
the writings of Eli Perkins will bear the
"wntcr out in this statement. Final 1}
hens die unrrep^et ted, and their memory is
shrouded in oblivion. Has not this been
the case in a great many instances with
