TIGER MEN IN AFRICA.

A Barbarous Practice Described by @ Woman Missionary.

The worst rascal in the French Kon- go, as far as I know, is the tiger man. One has to experience this affliction to fully realize what it means. I had heard about tiger men and their deeds for some years, but they seemed to be a thing of the past until their doings were revived in the spring of 1894,

There is a belief among the natives that if one kills 10 chickens, 10 ducks, 10 goats, 10 children, 10 women and 10 men he will never die, and to gain this desired end people are murdered by wholesale. We lost goats through tiger men in 1890, but as no person was killed no one paid much attention.

The murderer dresses himself in a tiger skin and walks on all fours when- tver near persons he wishes to kill, but when alone he walks erect. Small knives carried in the belt of his dress are the instruments with which these foul deeds are committed. One morning in March, 1894, we were told that a lit- tle girl and her mother had been killed the previous night. The woman was awakened by some strange noise and found the tiger man trying to carry her child away. She fought for the little girl and was cut 20 badly that she died before morning. The girl was taken away, and only her hands were found. The rest of the body was carried off. The whole country was aroused, but no one seemed to know who did it.

Not long after a little boy was killed while camping in the forest with a lot of older people to gather palm nuts. As soon as all was quiet again and the na- tives began to feel safe another case happened, and finally few persons dared to go out after right. During the year 1594, 24 murders came to our attention. One of our former mission boys, a lad of 15, was killed, and only his head was found. We determined then to stop this horrid custom if wecould. We inquired of influential men who the murderer was. Every one of them named the same person, or, rather, two persons. We promised that we would not betray the natives and asked the French offi- cial what should be done. He author- ized us to arrest the tiger men if we could.

We called a big meeting of all the influential men of the county, and of course we sent a special invitation to the tiger men. All the people came, and we soon had the two murderers in our power and sent them to Mayumba. The French agent there kept them locked up a little while and then let them go. It was too much trouble for him to sift the matter, and what did hecareif a few more niggers were killed? While this was going on we lost three goats in one night. They were killed by tiger men to show their appreciation of our part in the matter. The men who had been released never came back to our country, but went away to another district. Our natives were disgusted with the government because these mur- derers were let go.

Shortly after a woman was killed some six miles from us, We offered the chief our assistance, but he did not seem willing to deliver up the man, al- though he had been caught in the act. But the man got hia deserts soon enough. The woman was leaving her house in the evening with her daughter. Soon the girl called out, ‘‘Father, some one is hurting mother.’’ The father came running, picking up a heayy stick as he ran, and he struck the tiger man across the back, disabling him, After awhile the chlef and some others took the tiger man into the bush and gave him the ‘‘sass’’ wood poison, and when the man died they threw his body away. The chief told us this was the only way to get rid of the tiger men. There was no use in taking them to the French. Justice would not be meted out to them, and if they were not pun- ished severely they would return and kili more people.

This was indeed the right thing to do, as the event proved, It did frighten other tiger men for a time at least, and we heard nothing more of them while we were in the French Kongo.—New York Sun.

Whitewash for Building Exteriors. Many inquiries have been made as to

how the Washington. or Government, whitewash is mixed. The instructions are to take half a bushel of unslacked

lime, slake it with boiling water, cover- ing during the process to keep in the steam, and add to it a peck of salt, pps. viously dissolved in warm water,” pounds of ground rice boiled to a thin paste, and stirred in while hot,--With these mater- lals are ‘n¢orporated half a pound of ‘spanish whiting, and 1 pound of clean gine, previously dissolved by soaking in cold water and then hanging over a slow tire in a small pot hung in a larger one filled with water. To the whole add five gallans of hot water and let it stand a few days, covered from dust and dirt. It should be applied hot, for which purpose it can be keptin a kettle or portable farnace. A pint of this wash mixture, properly applied, will cover one square yard, It will be almost as serviceable as paint for wood, brick or stone, and is much cheaper than the cheapest paint. If a cream color is wanted, yellow ochre jis added; if pearl or lead, lampblack or ivory black. For fawn add four pounds of umber to one pound of Indian red and one peund of common lampblack; while four pounds of raw umber to two pounds of lampblack will give a common stone color. This mixture is used by the Gov- ernment to whitewash lighthouses, and it now covers the east end of the Presi- dent's house at Washington, A Keginning.

TRAPPING CROWS.

it Is Not an Easy Matter to Net the Wily Birds.

Crows are trapped and sold to sports- men for shooting matches, usually bring- ing $10 per 100, but, like other things, when ecarce they bring more.

It is no simple matter to trap crows, for the crow is a wily bird, and tocatch him in w net set for that purpose re- quires skill, and patience as well, but the hunger of the crow is always the trapper’s greatest aid. One man alone would make but little headway catching crows and would probably sit all day in his little bough house ready to spring his net, but the crows would give his bait a wide berth because they would know that be was there.

After placing the carcass of some ani- mal on a field the net is set close to i: by bending poles of saplings, oa which the net is hung flat to the ground, where they are heid down by triggerlike pegs, and a line run 50 yards or more toa house built of boughs, where the trap- per is secreted.

Another carcass is usually Jaid some hundreds of yards distant on the same or another field, where there is no net set. The trappers, usually two in num- ber, go into the bough house together before daylight, and when the crows be- gin to assemble on the fields one of them goes out and walks away. The crows, seeing him leave, grow a little bolder and approach the bait in ones and twos, but stop only long enough to get a beak- ful of the flesh and fly off again. The carcass where there is po net set is of course the best patronized, but the trap- per on the outside makes it his business to walk near enough to that to keep the crows from settling on it in numbers and thus satisfying their hunger with- out going to the one where the net is. After awhile their hunger gets the bet- ter of their judgment or their fear, and they gather on the carcass where the vet is. This is the opportunity of the man in the bough house, who, with a vigorous = on the line, springs the net over them. Quick work must be done then by the trappers, who rush up to the net, to keep the trapped crowa from crawling out at the ends and the front, where it is not staked fast to the ground. With their hands covered with stout buckskin gloves, to keep the crows from biting and scratching them, the captured birds are put in bags ready to be carried off the field. From 40 to 60 are frequently caught at one pull, but it jis a rare thing to get more than two springs of the net in one day.—Phila- delphia Record.

A STORY OF LONGFELLOW.

Vrs. Fields Tells an Interesting Anecdote of the Author,

Speaking of Longfellow, in her vol- ume of literary reminiscences, Mrs. Jane J. Fields says:

‘‘His kindness and love of humor car- ried him through many a tedious inter- ruption. He generously overlooked the fact of the subterfuges to which men and women resorted in order to get an interview, and, to help them out, made as much of their excuses as possible. Speaking one day of the persons who came to see him at Nahant, he said; ‘One man. a nerfect strangzér. came with an omnibus full of ladies. He descend- ed, introduced himself; then, returning to the omnibus, took out all the ladies, one, two, three, four and five, with a little girl, and brought them in. I en- tertained them to the best of my ability, and they staid an hour. They had scarce- ly gone when @ forlorn woman in black came up to me on the piazza and asked for a dipper of water. ‘‘Oertainly,’’ J replied, and went to fetch her a glass, When I brought it, she said: ‘There is another woman just by the fence who is tired and thirsty. I will carry this to her.’’ But she struck her head as she passed through the window and spilled the water on the piazza, ‘‘Oh, what have I done!’’ she said. ‘‘If I had a floor cloth, I would wipe it up.’’ ‘‘Oh, no matter about the water,’’ I said, ‘‘if you have not hurt yoarself.’’ Then I went and brought more water for them both and sent them on their way re- freshed and rejoicing.’

“It would be both an endless and un- profitable task to recall more of the cu- rious experiences which popularity brought down upon him. There is a passage among Mr. Fields’ ntites, how- ever, in which he describes an incident during Longfellow’s last visit to Eng- land which should not be overlooked. Upon his arrival the queen sent a grace- ful message and invited him to Windsor castle, where she received him with all the honors, but he told me no foreign tribute touched him deeper than the words of sn English hod carrier who came up to the carriage door at Harrow and asked permission to take the hand of the man who had written the ‘Voices of the Nighi.’ ”’

The End of Books,

What brings about the end of books? Is it fire, water, worms? As every ship launched is bound to be wrecked, every theater to be burned, the finis of the book is its reduction to ashes. What be- came of the Alexandrian library? Did the Saracens burn it in 640? There is this question asked: Was there any li- brary at Alexandria containing 700,000 books? Gibbon inclines to the opinion that there was no such library. Caron Taylor insists that if there had been a library it was burned in the time of Ju- lius Cesar. Tradition seems to indicate, however, that there was a library in the Serapeum, by no means a large col- lection, but whether destroyed by The- ophilus or Theodosius is not known. it looks as if the charge brought against the Arabs rested on no foundation. Re- cent explorations of Alexandria, 1895-6, show no traces of the Serapeum. The seaport of Egypt was built on a damp foundation, and, granting that there was a library, if not destroyed by fire, then the papyri might have suffered from Gecay due to water. Books of ‘to- day taken to India, to the southern states and to the West Indies perish through mildew.—New York Times,

—Ex-Gov. Altgeld says that the develop- ments of the last two months show clearly that the people were defeated by a count of votes that were not legally cast. In each of the fifteen states which Mark Hanna started out to carry there have been many more votes counted than there were male inhabitants over 21 years of age. “In Ohio there were nearly 200,000 more votes counted in 1896 than there were in 1892, which would indicate an increase of popu- lation in that State during four years of nearly 1,000,900 people, whereas in reality there has not been an increase of 500,000 in thattime. In other words, Altgeld argues, it is clear that in Ohio over 94,- 000 fraudulent yotes were counted, and as the returns show that McKinlay had only a majority of 49,000 in that State, it i> certain that Bryan carried Obio bv over 40,000. A similiar condition of affairs is charged in fourteen other S:ates.
