In the course of my expiorrtttons In
Asia a portion of ray route carried me
through the wllda ef Anuam untl
Northern Slam, a land covered for lis
greater extent with well nigh Impene
trable forests and malarial iwamps.
Little haa been written about thla al
most unknown country, and yet It la
one of the moat strange and Interest
ing regions of the earth. Of all the
mixed communities of the much-mixed
East the country about the headwatera
of the Mekong River offers a more var
led object lesson In Interracial compll
cations than probably any other local
My of Ha size In the world.
Firmly convinced that nothing save
a speedy, determined, even impetuous,
advance would enable me to succeed
where others had repeatedly failed, my
Journey Into this untrodden region was
made by following the course of the
Borne Warriors of the Tribe.
Mekong River nearly to Ita source In
Southeaatern Thibet. My expedition
r force consisted of twenty Bang
kok coolies. Leaving Saigon early in
the year, by midsummer we had sue
ceasfully overcome the dangers which
menaced ua from the fierce Lao trlbea
nd had penetrated to the heart of the
Chlao Plain, a region occupied by one
of the strangest races in the world, the
Kllng-Taos, an important branch of
the treat, Lao race of Slam. For sev
eral months we remained among this
strange people, thoroughly exploring
their country.
ClinraoUr ot tha Rue.
" Kllng-Taos, although generally
s-ecoKnlzed aa a distinct race, are
reality the Issue of an amalgamation of
races entirely alien in their general
characteristics and differing widely in
appearance and language. The level
of civilization varies, but seldom
reaches even the average standard ot
Southern Asia. This people are of me
dium height, of fleshy rather than mus
cular frame; In color a sooty brown,
with high but rather narrow and re
treating forehead, thick Hps and high
cheek bones. A peculiarity Is the vari
ance In hair, some having It long and
straight, as In the Mongolian races,
while among others it Is black and
frizzly, as In a full-blooded negro.
Most of these tribes are migratory.
There are but few settled villages, and
these even of the most miserable kind.
The houses are one-storied affairs, con
structed of wicker and bamboo with
a covering of clay and raised on plies
to a height of five or six feet from the
ground. Among the more savage j
Kllng-Taos It is the practice to build i
dwellines in trees. This is done to ;
safeguard the dwellers against enemies j
and evil spirits.
An IniproTliUnt Paopla.
All of these tribes show considerable
agricultural skill, but In spite of the
fertility and natural richness of the
country they are singularly improvi
dent, and during an especially trying
season they die by hundreds of starva
tion. When this occurs whole tribes
migrate to the south and raid and
make war upon the more civilized na
tives of central and southern Slam.
The Kllng-Taos, being bold and war
like, are really the "bogles' of South
eastern Asia, and the fierceness char
acterizing these periodical forays and
the dread which they inspire among
their more peaceful neighbors have
hitherto saved them from retaliatory
punishment.
My acquaintance with the Kllng
Taos was not confined to meeting ma
rauding parties of warriors or trading
hands. I visited and studied these re
markable people in their own country.
We camped one day by the side of a
tiny rivulet in the country of the
Kazylos, one of the proudest tribes of
this race, and knowing the savage na
ture of our surroundings we had built
a strong "kao," or stockade, of thorn
trees, which afforded us protection
from attack. The camp was in an open
plain, and on our way thither we had
heen made aware of the Interest we
created among the Inhabitants by the
glimpses of bands of Kllng-Taos who
were Intently watching our movements
from little eminences off to the west.
Sometimes when we could not see the
warriors their presence would be re
vealed by the glint pf the sun on their
big, bright spears, or on the "senge"
ornaments of the women. "Senge" is
the Siamese name for a thick Iron
wire, which answers the purpose of
money among these people.
Atixioua to Baa Wlilla Men.
Hardly had we settled In our "kao"
when hundreds of warriors, followed
by women and children, came stream
ing Into camp. The news of the ar
rival ot a white man's caravan was the
signal for a general mustering ot the
population ot the entire surrounding
country. They wished to see what we
were, to trndn with 113 and to demnnd
tribute for the privilege of passing
through their country. Iloldncss and
Impudence ere not attractive qualities
am cm l civilized beings, and In a sav-
ire they become Intolerable. We soon
'.ifccovcrrd tl.at thc.te truUs predomi
nated, 0? even the little children were
bold. Insolent nnd nEKreysive. They
were nfrald to take liberties with t!ie
mysterious whilc-f.iced lenders of tho
forty, but they termed to be at ceat
pains to Impress our coolies that ihey
considered them no better than ani
mals. Our men for several months
past had stalked about among the
weak tribes previously encountered in
boastful, bullying manner; but now
the ease was quite different and other
wise, and It was laughable to see the
tables turned on our men so complete
ly and so suddenly.
Treatment of Tritvnlf r.
The head-man of the district was a
pompous old warrior, wno announced
his Intention of preventing our passage
through the country unless wo submit
ted to the exorbitant charges for the
privileges which be demanded. We
promptly seized upon his person,
threatening the moBt dire punishment
should he attempt to put his threat
Into execution. Then hia insolence
vaniuhed, and, finding that we were not
to be cowed by threats, he became
more gracious. The Kllng-Taos being
brave end fearless themselves, admire
these traits In others, and the effect of
this summary treatment was to secure
for us the freest opportunities for ex
ploring the surrounding country and
completing our Investigation.
No Settled UoTirnneut.
There is no settled form of govern
ment among the Kllng-Taos, and the
constitution of society is very simple.
Rank Is hereditary, but as no respect
la shown for birth the chiefs have lit
tie power. The religious Institutions
are likewise simple; there is no gen
eral object of worship. There is a
vague notion of a universal ruler, who
Is represented by several malevolent
spirits. Mian, the most powerful, In
habits the woods In the form of man
eating animals; Narge, who carries off
children, lives In the clouds, ana re
nak, who lives in the streams, raises
storms. As a protection against these
the people construct having first with
much ceremony chosen a tree for the
purpose certain rude images called
kwars, each representing a recently
dead progenitor, whose spirit Is then
Invoked to occupy the Image and pro
tect them against their enemlea and
give success to their undertakings. The
kwars Is about a foot high, with head
disproportionately large; the male fig
ures are aometlmea represented with a
spear and shield, the female holding
a snake. On ens are observed before
starting on any expedition; If they are
unfavorable the person threatened re
tires, another day is chosen and the
process repeated.
Miielclana and Ralnmakap.
The most influential members of the
tribe are the magicians and ralnmak
era, whose business It is to regulate
the weather and to whom Is Intrusted
the nrocess of ordeal to discover crime.
The desirability of this position la
open to question, for, should the unfor
tunate magician fall to provide what
Is required of him, he Is punished In 1
horrible manner. A hollow tree Is se
lected, and In it he is imprisoned, nil
head protruding from a narrow ori
fice, while the remainder of the open

Things have reached an acute stage
in the beet inquiry. lne court
done several things last week calcu
lated to make the public suspect its
fairness, and believe that it had a
preference as to thekind of testimony
it wished to hear. It started by ig
noring a courteous request from Ex
Representative T. Hamilton Lewis
that he be allowed to appear as coun
sel for Dr. Daly, when he gave his
testimony, and it aggravated matters
by trying to dodge a specific request
of Gen. Miles that 131 witnesses,
whose names he furnished, should be
summoned. This brought out a sharp
letter from Gen. Miles, from which
the following is an extiact : " It is my
belief that at least 25,000 men, and
undoubtedly a much greater number,
would confirm the testimony that has

gestion is feasible, and that if properly
approached England .would agree to

probably make a strong protest against
their being transferred to England.
Mr. Livingston says that all we need
in the Philippines is a coal and n?val
station, and believes that we sha'.l re
gret it if we keep more than that.
Admiral Schley says that the swap
will never be made tor the very good
reason that England would not agree
to it.

The posltloa of woman among the
Kllng-Taos Is very low, and the trav
eler cunnot fall to be struck by the
hardness and misery of her lot. Al
though a woman Is looked upon as a
valuable commodity, she Is treated In
the utmost contempt, and her existence
Is Infinitely worse than that of the
animals of her lord and master. Po
lygamy is generally practiced, and In
fwiditinn the more powerful chiefs
maintain concubines. I have known of
a man who possessed at one time four
teen wives and nearly twice as many
concubines. At death a man's prop
erty is transferred to his relatives, but
the women of his household are looked
upon as common property and may be
seized by the first who comes along,
and who Is able to uphold his cluim by
combat.
Among nearly all savage races a cer
tain affection Is manifested by parents
for their offspring. Among the Kllng
Taos such a moral quality Is unknown.

It Is announced that an entirely new
method for the manufacture of table
cutlery Is being Introduced Into Shef

Interest. A round bar of steel Is placed
In a machine, and by means of hy

formed-blnde, bolster and handle.
The "fash" Is taken off. and It Is sub

It Is stated, of producing 5,000 of these

If all the applications are granted,
and they continue being made as rap

portion of the men who enlisted for
the war with Spam will soon be on
the pension roll of the Government.
From official figures at the Pension
Bureau it is shown that the number
of applicants for pension have been
comparatively enormous. Out of five
regiments, which lead the pension
procession, there have already been
filed 1735 applications for pension.
These regiments and the number of
applicants from each follow : Thirty-

No law seems broad enough to
protect employes of the Government
from their superiors who wish to have
them "voluntarily" contribute to buy

individual contributions for this sort

is large, and at least ninety-nine out
of every hundred who contribute
would retuse to do so, if they did not
know refusal would be followed by a
course of petty nagging that would be
far more annoying than the loss of
the money. The latest " voluntary "
contributions were made by the em
ployes of the Internal Revenue Omce,

with Inflammation and hemorrhages

I underwent local treatment every

two months the doctor gave me permis
