THE PELHAM JOURNAL, fRTDAY, AUGUST 21. 1 MS.
THE VOODOO iiM HAITI.
Human Sacrifices to the Gcd of the
Serpent.
There is ample proof that human be¬
ings have been offered as sacrifices to
the god of the serpent in Haiti. A
French archbishop of the island de¬
scribes a visit made by one of the
priests to a voodoo assembly. The
man had disguised himself as a negro,
.and he was thus able to mingle unde¬
tected with the crowd in the obscurity
outside the sacred circle. After the
white cock and white goat had been
slain and offered up and their blood
had been sprinkled on the company a
burly young negro came forward and
prostrated himself before the priestess.
Then, still kneeling, he made his
prayer:
"O maman, I have a favor to ask of
thee.”
“What Is it, my son?” said the
negress encouragiUgly.
"Wilt thou not give ns, to complete
the sacrifice, the goat without horns?”
The priestess gave a sign of assent.
The crowd roundabout separated, aud
there was revealed a child sitting with
its feet bound. The French priest
rushed away in search of assistance in
preventing the unholy rite, but the
authorities on whom lie called were
drangely slothful. When finally, on
Re day following, they arrived at the
lace of assembly, they found the
trewsome remains of a sacrifice and a
i'east, among them tiie boiled skull of
ihe child.—Marvin Dana in Metropoli¬
tan Magazine.
When Men Hurry.
"Singular," said a man waiting for a
train on an elevated railroad platform
mil looking down a street to where a
hundred men and boys had gathered
.uv.uud two wagons that had come to¬
gether in collision, “there are a hun¬
dred men standing around those two
war ns, just standing there, gawping,
apparently with nothing else to do
and not in a bit of a hurry, but let any
me of those men come up the stairs
to this .platform when there is a train
■coining in and he’d rush and hurry and
tear himself apart to catch that train
and get glum if he missed it. though
he knew very well that tliere’d be an¬
other train here in a minute. Let him
miss *a train by a second aud be

Kins, do Struve's Wit.
Secretary Blaine bad said of Mine,
do Struve that she was the brightest
woman he had ever met. and every¬
body who knew her agreed with this
verdict. Her knowledge of English
was remarkable, even for a Russian,
and her sallies were famous.„ For in¬
stance, the day when Secretary Bay¬
ard was made head of the American
diplomatic service his daughter, Miss
Kale Bayard, said laughingly to a
young secretary of legation, “Remem¬
ber, I am now daughter of your chief!”
to which came, quick as a flash, the
retort from Mine, do Struve’s lips,
“Oil, we all know that you are miss
chicf!”—Army and Navy Life.
His Terms Varied.
“I give a little reception next Thurs¬
day evening, and I should like some
music, piano solos particularly. What
would bo your terms?" Thus a lady
to a professional instrumentalist.
“Eef I go zere simply as a musician,”
was the reply, “uud blay my selections
tni'l leave I ghnrge fife guineas, but
eef I must go as a guest und spend ze
whole evenings talking to von pack of
fools I gtoarge den guineas!”—London
Graphic.
A Sure Thing.
She—Did father say anything about
you being too young? lie—Well, yes:
blit he said I’d age pretty rapidly after
we were married and I found I had
pay your bills.—Illustrated Bits.
A happiness that is quite undis¬
turbed becomes tiresome; we must
have ups and downs.—Moliere.
My studies of people have led me
the conclusion that the high aud lofty
soul has a good bit of the hypocrite
in his composition.—London Outlook.
Paid For Their Last Tribute.
In a letter written by Count Grzy
male. who was an ardent admirer of
Chopin, the last moments of the great
musician are thus referred to: “A few
hoars before he died he asked Mine.
Potocka to sing some melodies by Ros¬
sini and Bellini, and this she did with
sobs in her voice. Listening to her
voice he passed away.” Speaking of
the funeral, the writer says: “Mozart’s
requiem and his own funeral march
were performed with the assistance of
Labhmche, Viardot and the concert so¬
ciety. It was characteristic of the
times that the artists should
asked 2.000 francs for this last
to Chopin.- One would have
that pride would have kept them from

SEA EATKma.
The Effects of Selt Air and Water on
the Human Body.
There is a reason why -parents have
in all times aud m all ages endeavored
to give their children the benefit of sea
air and sea bathing. An Italian physi¬
cian. Gerosa, tells ahoft It:
U is agreed, he rays, that ail living
organisms began their first existence in
salt water and that as a result the hu¬
man body (and indeed every animal
body) is largely made up of salt. If
you taste your blood or your tears,
which are the extract of blood, you
will find that both are quite salt in
flavor. More than this, however, every
living being possesses within his body,
in the cellular,stage, all those strange
nfhrine organisms which wo study so
curiously in museums. And, seeing,
says Gerosa, that, the amount of sea
water contained in otery body is equal
to one-third of that body's weight, it is
clear that in the infinitesimally rudi¬
mentary form all 1; town marine life
must ho present in the blood. The re¬
sult is that when we‘.bathe in the sea
or breathe the sea air we replace the
amount of essential salt which is con¬
stantly decreasing in the system and.
all unconsciously to ourselves, weak¬
ening it. Salt water, says Gerosa. is
really the main principle of life, since
it is the first condition of existence
which the living organisms knew. It
is therefore always good for the body,
whether it be enjoyed at the seaside or
brought in bottles fr-nn the sea. In
particular is it very valuable in the
case of weakling children, and there is
no bodily stimulant so Invigorating to
the very young as sea water.
After a long and tearful interview
with his better half the unfeeling hus¬
band wrote and sent to the daily pa¬
pers the following advertisement:
“Lost—A mangy lapdog, with one eye
and no tail. Too fat to walk. Answers
to the name of Fido. If returned stuff¬
ed, large reward.”
