DINED ON ROASTED MEN.
Tale of a Fiji Cannibal Who Claims to
Have Eaten Huoman Flesh,
The general curiosity of our entire
town W¥as aroused by the appearance
upon our streets of a native of India,
who was born upon one of the Fiji
islands. He wore a very red or cardinal
colored suit of clothes, knee pants, and
jacket trimmmed with black velvet collar
and cuffs. Over his shoulder he carried
a cloak that was tied over the left shoul
der and under the right, made of white
and red flannel. His head was covered
with 2 blouse that fell down his back,
and’still over this a sombrero. His shoes
wers tied under the instep with a one
half inch white braid that wound around
the leg up to the knees. His general ap
pearance was very gaudy.
This native was converted when 23
old, and isnow 74 years of age.
gifl father lived to be 130 years of age.
His life has been spent in lecturing on
the condition of his people. He speaks
twenty languages fluently. When five
ir six years old he saw an Indian woman
hrow her child to a crocodile that
weighed 1,000 pounds. The animal
missed the child, and the mother caught
it's it ran back to her begging for its
life, when she threw it again. This time
the crocodile struck it with its claws,
tore it into two pieces and ate it very
quickly. She then reported her acts to
the pagan priest, and he blessed her, say
ing to her, ‘‘Go sin no more.”
He also was a cannibal. When he was
7 years old there were twenty-one min
isters who were caught traveling and
prospecting for places to locate churches,
and one of these ministers was beheaded
every morning by their ‘high priest and
his flesh cooked, and the natives were
made to stand in a row and each one was
given a part of the flesh, and they stood
and ate it. This was continued every
day for twenty-one days, until all of the
ministers were eaten up, and he ate part
of twenty-one preachars,
He says the natives never do eat one
another unless one is taken in war or as
a missionary; that it is a mistaken idea
that they slay one another to eat when
this man and that is iat enough to eat;
that the beasts of the field never slay
one of their kind to jrey upon, and that
the savages have never gotten to be
lower than wild animals.—Atlanta Con
istitution.
Geese in a Vog. ‘
The oddest story of geese in the foy
comes from Norfolk, and was told to ‘
Mr. Stevenson, the author of “The Birds
of Norfolk,” by the Rev. H. T. Frere. A |
large flock of geese were attracted to the |
town of Diss on a foggy night by the
lights, and from the sound of their voices
seemed to fly scarcely higher than the
tops of the houses,
They came about 7 p. m., and, as it
was Sunday evening, they appeared to
be especially attracted by the lights in
the church, and their incessant clamor
not a little disturbed the congregation
assemibled for evening service. From
that time until 2a. m., when the fog
cleared off and they departed, they con
tinued to fly around utterly hewildered.
One bird happened to fly so low as to
strike- u gas lamp outside {he town—
probably it was flving round the light--
Just as u policeman was passing by, who
very properly, as the bird was making a
great noise outside a public house, tcok
it into custody, and the next day it was
with equal propriety sent off to a pri
vate lunatic asylum at Melton, where it
lived for some years an honored guest.

‘When a Gentleman Seems Homeless.
Do you know when an elegant, pol
“fBhed gentleman seems like a tramp? 1t
is when he allows the impression to go
out that he has no place he can call
home, or belonginz to himself individu
ally, by using club stationery for all of
his correspondence. Something about it
there is that smacks of snobbishnesas,
poverty or secrecy more than of the dig
nity belonging to an exclusive or popu
lar club. For a general address in the
revolving of city life one's club is de
cidedly conveniont, and there are cer
tain notes and letters that have the cor
rect air when topped by the club name,
monogram or coat of arms, but when a
man confines himself to the club sta
tionery for his business letters, his formal
and informal notes and all social letters
it calls up that class of men who board
at inferlor hotels and slip around to
well known high priced ones and help
themselves to the paper that ie left in
the reading and writing rcoms for the
use of the guests.—Chicago Herald.
Lamp Shades.
Many of those gorgeous lamp shades
that bewilder the eye from half a dozen
show windows on Fifth avenue are made
at home by women who have seen the
proverbial ‘“‘better days.” The work re
quires niesty of taste and gkill in needle
work. Designs and materials are far
nished sometimes by the shopkeeper,
sometimes by the women that do the
work. The largest shades are made over
parasol frames. The materials entering
into the work are silk, satin, lace and
artificial flowers. Prices of the more
elaborate shades var: from s§l6 to $5O,
%0 that the cost of » handsome lamp
fully equipped may run up to $5OO. In
some cases milliners also make lamp
shades, and the fact th ¢ they are able
to utilize remnants of :il's and of other
materials gives them s peculiar ad
vantage in this business.—New York
Sun.
But They Didn’t.
John Hays, a Nebraska youth, re
ceived 460 letters from his girl, and she
received 470 from him. Each one wrote
on every letter, “Burn this after read
ing,” but both took great care not to do
anything of the sort. If you want a
‘woman to save your love letters just let
her think you want them burned.—De

FREE LAND COMES HIGH.
Town Lots Given Away, but There Are
Expenscs Attached to Them.
I heard about the man who was giving
away town lots free, and one day I left
the train at a small station and hired a
man to drive me over to the site of the
future great city. I founda sixty acre
farm staked out into lots 20 feet front
by 50 deep, but only one house and one
person were in sight. The house was a
farm cabin, and the person was the
owner of it and the one I wanted to see.
*‘Come for a lot?” he asked as we drove
up.
“Yes, in case my information is cor
rect. Do you give them away free?”
sldn.%
“I had heard so.”
“Go right out and select any one you
like. Those selected are marked with
red stakes, those not yet taken by black
ones.”
I took a walk around and made a se
lection, and he found the number and
said:
“You want an abstract of title, of
course. Here it is, and the fee is $3.”
When I had received it he hunted out
a deed already signed, and filled my
name in, called in the teamster and his
wife for witnesses, and said:
‘“Here is your deed. I'llhave to charge
$4 for that.”
Ipaid the sum named, and he then
got down a big book and said:
“You want it recorded, of cousse. I
am the county clerk. The fee for re
cording is §3.”
Ihad it duly recorded, and just then
dinner was ready. Ie invited me to sit
down, but when we were through he
said:
“My charge for dinner is seventy-five
cents. The taxes on your lot will be due
next week, and you had better leave the
money. The amount is §1.75, and my
commission for receipting will be twen
ty-five cents.”
I paid him the sum named and was
about to get into the wagon, when he
said:
“The charge for bringing you over
and taking you back is §2. Half belongs
to me, as I own the wagon. One dollar,
please.” '
“Can yon think of anything further?’
I asked, as I handed him the dollar.,
“Well, you'll bave to stop at the junc
tion about four hours before the eastern
train comes along. I own the restaurant
there. Pleaso eat all you can.”
“I have,” I said. after a little figuring,
“paid you §13.75 for a lot you advertise
to give away free. How :nuch do you
call this land worth an acre?”
“All of six dollars, sir. Tve been
offered five and wouldn't take it.” -~
“Then I've paid you more than the
value of two acres to get a lot large
enough to bury a couple of cows on!”
“Exactly, sir—exactly, and I congrat
ulate you on your bargain.”
“Then you don’t call it a swindle?”
“No, sir! No, sir! A man who will
kick on buying a chunk of the glorious
west for less than §l4 isn't straight, and,
Mr. Tompkins, I'd advise you to keep an
eye on him going back and see that he
doesn’t jump out of the wagon and bilk
§)u out of your dollar.”-—Wilmington

Private Interview.
One may sometimes be made to see the
uselessness of a foolish habit by being
mado the victim of similar behavior on
the part of another. Here is an example
of being paid *‘in one’s own coin:”
A landlord in a country village was
busily employed at his desk when a
farmer came to the door and asked to
gee him.
The man was asked his errand, but he
persisted that he must see the hotel
keeper alone. The latter stepped out
side, when the farmer motioned him to
follow and walked around to the rear
of thie hotel.
When they were well around the cor
ner the farmer stated that he wished to
buy a cow and had heard that the land-
Jord had one to sell.
“Come on,” said the other, and led the
way through a garden, a patch of pota
toes, and after clizabing afence, through
a muddy barnyard and into the hotel
barn. :
When they were inside the landlord
put his mouth near the other’s ear and
whispered:
~ “Bay, neighbor, I've sold my cow!"—

Nicknames at College.
‘With students the range of sobriquets
is wide and varied, a condition due to the
close relations between the nicknamer
and the nicknamed. Some well defined
rules obtain, however, which show there
is some method in this phase of under
graduate madness. Surnames often
carry the same nicknames, although the
persons may not be related, and may be
separated by five or ten years in the time
of their residence at college. For in
stance, Jones, 79, is dubbed *Buck,”
and the chances are excellent that Jones,
89, will receive the same nickname.
Why, no one knows, but it is a curious
instance of persistent personality. Again,
nicknames received previously at school
or at home count for naught, for the
collegian 18 no respecter of traditions
outside of the college world, So “Billy”
becomes *‘Sister,” **Jack” is transformed
into “Reddy,” “Joe¢” is elevated into
‘“Senator,” etc.—New York Tribune,
Mutual Lack of Confidence.
“I will have to owe you a dime,” said
Schuler Jewett to the tobacconist as he
bit off the end of a cigar.
“But I haven't got confidence in you
to that extent. Yon will have to leave
that diamond pin as eollateral.”
“That diamond pin is worth a dollar
and a half, and I haven't got confidence
in you to that extent,” replied Schuler |
as he strolled out into Broadway puffing
his cheap cigar.”—Texas Siftings. ‘
A Swedish engineer has inventcd a
novel method of blasting hy electricity.
He employs a volta arc produced be

When the arc is moved close to the spot

INSURE YOUR LIVES.
It is hardly worth while to try to
impress the public with the impor
tance of Life Insurauce, for it is only
a question of ability with the majoris
ty as to whether they will take it,
very few who are able refusing. The
next point ig the selection of Com
pany. So far the Fidelity Mutual
Life Association has been the choice,
and will likely continue to be, having
now more JTosurance in force in this
county than all other companies com
bined. Its rates ave within the reach
of those who need Insurance most,
and in point of strength surpassed by
none and equalled by few. In fact,
it is a combination of ail the different
plans of insurance, with the weak
points of all eliminated—an improve.,
ment over all. For terms and infor~
