Four- Fifths of the People Flat Human Flesh—A Dead Chief's Wives and Slaves interred Alive. ¥R. DORSEY MOHUN, United States commercial agent to tho Congo Freo State, has just returned to Washing ton after two vory exciting years in tho Dark Continent. Ho has brought with him some wonderful stories of battle and adventure, a large collec tion of trophioß and curiositios, and much interesting information. Just at present he occupies a desk at tho Stato Department, where ho is prepar ing a report that will bo submitted to Congress. "Twenty millions of peoplo in tho Congo Free Stato are caters of human flesh," said Mr. Mohun. "That is about four-fifths of tho ontiro popula tion. Cannibalism is strictly forbid den by the Governmont of tho country, but nine hundred whito men aro not able to exercise a very complete con trol over such a vast number of savages occupying 1,000,000 squaro milos of territory. Individuals aro caught in this net occasionally and punishod with denth. Ono day in last May as I chanced to enter a village that lay on tho route of my expedition tho na tives fled precipitately. I was at a loss to know tho reason why until I dis covered oortain evidonces of a big fam ily feast. Thoy had been cooking a man, nnd ono of his legs was in a pot over the fire. "I lost no timo in throwing pot and all into tho river. Tho man's head was stuck on a fence. Among these people it iu tho custom to keep tho head of a victim iu this way for four or five days, at tho end of which it serves for a stew. Tho brain is highly esteemed. Tho ohief of the village was tried on tha chargo of cannibalism and afterward bunged, I boliove. Tho man whom I found pottod was a slave and had boon purchased for food. Somo of tho tribes commonly buy slaves to eat, just liko pigs or chick ens, fattoning them on bananas, palm oil and other nutritious provender, and killing them whon thoy are iu suitable condition. "What do tho slaves think of it? you ask. Well, they do not seem to mind it very much. Iu Africa suoh things aro looked upon from a differ ent point of view. I onco saw four teen persons buried olive, and thoy oxhibitod tho utmost indiffcreuco to their fate. A great chief Iliad diod, and, according to custom, it was nec essary that his favoiito wives and some of his slaves should accompany him to his futuro abode. "A hole was dug in tho ground about as largo as a fair sized room, and in tho middlo of it tho corpse of tho augUßt defunct was plaood. Ono of his wives descended into tho exca vation and squatted at his head; another wifo squatted at his foot, and two moro wivoß disposed themselves similarly on oithor side of him. His body was dono up in about a thousand yords of oloth. This was an evidonoo of his wealth, for cloth is monoy in savago Africa. "In tho hole, forming a circle around tho corpse, squatted ten slaves. Neither they nor the four wives mani fested any concern about their ap proaching fate, which they evidently rogarded as a matter of course. Up to the end of tho ceremouy, which was quito olaborate, thoy did not utter a sound or mako a struggle. At a signal men began to throw back tho enrth into tho pit which was to bo a grave for tho living as well as for tho dead. Tho oporatiou was continued nntil all of tho unfortuuutos wero covered up and concealed from view. Whilo tho hole was being filled up thero was a continuous and uuearthly hullabaloo, with shouting and dancing and beat ing of tom-toms. "Why did I not interfero? I was not strong enough. My escort num bered only a fow men, und 1 could not have prevented tho tragedy, while any attempt on my part in that direction would probably have cost my own life. Tho living burial I havo described was on u small scalo compared with similar sacrifices that aro mado from timo to timo at tho funerals of nativo poten tates. It often that expedi tions pussing through tho oountry find in tho villages slaves with wooden blocks on their ankles. They woar these clogs to provent them from es caping whilo they uro being fattened for eating. W hen thus discovered by whito men thoy aro always set free. Theso savages aro groat cowards. On ono occasion, with only four guns, I did not hesitato to attack about twenty villages. A mail bag was stolen from my camp at night. I made a demand upon tho local chief for the return of tho bag. My request was not acceded to, and so 1 proceeded to' wago war on tho whole oountry there about. I made my way along tho river in a small stcumboat, attaoking and burning ono villago after another. ' I dostroyed ton or twelve of thom in this manner. Finally I captured tho chiefs son and sent word to his father that I would hang tho young man if tho bag and its contonts wero not forthcoming by tho noxt morning. Tho rosponso was very prompt this timo. To my surpriso two mail bags wero roturned to me. Oddly enough, I had not missed tho second one. "You will eusily understand that in tho Congo Free State, which has an organizod government and a sovereign in the person of tho King of tho Bel gians, an ordinary traveler would not be permitted to mako war upon the nativos in such fnshioD.. But I had official authority and discretionary power, being reoognizod as represent ing the United States. "The Government of tho Congo Freo State bestowed upon me the Order of tho Lion in recognition of my mili tary sorvicos. Of tho 1400 natives in my party obout 700 wero women. I would never go on an expedition in Afriea without taking women along. They are most useful to carry food and other burdens. In order that tho men Bhail fight well and be contented it is necessary that they shall not bo asked to carry loads. My dugout canoo was a fine affair. It was seventy-fivo feet long and mado from a singlo log. There was room for forty paddlcrs, in addition to whom it oarried thirty soldiers and their wives—in all one hundred and twonty-five people, with buggago, etc. In this craft thußloadcd wo could go faster than any steamer on the Congo. A comfortablo house of graes was built on board of her. "The collection which I brought back with mo includes somo wooden figures of men and women, which are fetiches. Tho natives do no exactly worship them, but burn things beforo them. In tho lower Congo, whon n person is suspected of theft, a nail is jabbed into tho heart of such a wooden flguro, and the supposition is that it will causo tho death of tho offender. In every tribe there is a fetich houso, in which fotiches are kopt and cared for by tho fetich man. The latter is a sort of dootor, and ho will sell poisons to people who desire to get rid of enemies." WISE WORDS. A man is a fool in somo new way every day. An open foo is loss to bo feared than a pretendod friend. Living beyond ono's income is one of tho heights of folly. A feast of reason that ends in intox ication is a feast of folly. One good act is superior to one hun drod prudent resolutions. Seek the compauy of tho well-in formed and well-conditionod. No difference whero a man goos, ho finds things that ho docs not liko. If a man hires a girl, ho does not think hiß wifo has anything to do. Whou a man gets in troublo tho only thing his friends givo him is ndvico. The truth may long bo kopt down, but in tho end it is certain to triumph. Tho sword nover achieved a victory for tho right without inflicting wrong. If a woman has an idea that you think sho talks too much, sho will hate you. Life,when longest, is too short to bo wasted in dissipation and vain pur suits. Tho pooplo who havo tho softost carpet to kneel on often do the least praying. If all women woro plain, mon would gallantly hold that tho plain woro beautiful. This is tho ago when womon aro making every effort to do what men huve dono. One of tho surprising things of this world is tho respect a worthloss man bus for himself. A business seldom amounts tu onough to givo ull tho employes tho credit thoy claim. Old ago is supposod to bring wis dom, but in too many livos it brings littlo eIBO than regret. When turning over that new loaf do not forget the old one, but profit by its blots and blemishes.] Credit has its virtues, but it is of ten a poor thing for thoso who aro reckless in their expenditures. Invalids Exempt From Wrinkles. It will ofton bo noticed that in a family of women one who has been an invalid for years will be the ono who will prosorvo hor youthful looks tho longest. Invalids almost always havo a certain cxemptiou from wrinkles and time-worn faces. This must bo duu to tho shelterod, quiet lives they load, tho freedom from excitement and tho partial immunity from cares that touch thom last of all, being borno by tho rest of their friouds as far as may bo. There must bo a littlo moral in the statement, too. It is not desira ble to shirk one's sharo of work or worry for tho sako of preserving ono's good looks. But ono might easily think how far thoso worries and that work may be avoidable and so emu late tho serenity of tho invalid.—St. Louis Star-Sayings. Making Soldier Clothes to Pit. "Does your clothing fit you?" is likely to becomo u common quostiou among tho soldiers. It has been a custom largely followed by soldiors to draw clothing from tho quartermas ter's stores larger in sizo than needed, so that they could have it made over and fitted better to tho person; but tho Qurtermastor-General thinks this an unnccossary exponso to tho sol diors, and a few days ago wrote a re quisition direoting attention to that part of tho urmy regulations which specifics that "no issues of clothing of larger sizes than actually neodod for tho enlisted men, for tho purposo of altering thom iuto smallor sizes can bo made," and which ulso makes it tho duty of tho commanding oflieors tc soo that tho unmade clothing, whou made, conforms strictly to tho staud dard puttorns.— Philadelphia Press.

Wild Cattle That Will Do Anything Except Go on Hoard—Occasional Chases In the Water. T I THE LO Fevro, belonging to vI j tho Jersey City Central stock 1 yards, lay alongside a White 6* Star liner bound for Liver pool, says the New York Sun. Three or four hundred cattlo had already been transferred to tho hold of tho steamer and had made but slight ob jection to th o process, tho gangplank being almost level. Tho remainder of tho herd were to bo accommodated on the steamer's upper deck, to bo "saloon passengors," as one of the ocean drovers remarked, and getting them up into their elevated quarters was tho topic under consideration. Tho steep ascent being pronounced impracticable, and other gangways with which it was proposed to reduce tho grado being condemned as too weak, tho upper end of tho gangway was lowered with ropes somo distance below tho deck, so that it was at an angle of about forty-fivo degrees. High board sides were affixed to pre vent tho cattlo from jumping over board, and up this steep inclino the cattle wore forced, reaching tho deck by a jump from tho end of the gang way. There was much protest iu the way of bellowing. Two monstrous bullocks, ono a dark red with a broken horn, tho other dappled with whito. were first to ar rive at tho ond of tho gangway. They looked up anxiously, and then turned as if seoking somo way of escape, but their companions were crowding thick bohind thorn, and on cither side cow boys stood urging them on with ad monishing blows und shouts. In spite of themselves they were forced a short distance up tho gangplank, but there they liesitatod, and no amount of urg ing and jabbing with long poles could induco them to climb further. Their eyes had tho despcrato, hunted look of wild creatures at bay. Tho spotted whito bullock advanced a stop or so ahead of his companion. A cowboy, young and vigorous, whoso overcoat had lost nearly all of its outside glory from re peated exploits amid such scenes, took advantage of this amiable disposition on tho steer's part to give his tail a twist. This device caused tho huge creature to advance a few steps high er. Tho bullock with tho broken horn stood rooted to tho spot. He lifted his head and looked over the side of gangway as if contemplating a leap overboard. Thou ho turned and lookod back, and seemed doterminod to do anything rather than climb to thoso unknown regions above. Ono of the steamer's crew put somo hay tomptingly at tho top of tho passage. The cowboy tweaked again at his vic tim's tail, tho othors shouted like madmen and waved thoir long poles, and the spottod white steer sprang forward in desperation and almost gained the top of tho gangway. Tho long poles wero dug into his panting sides. He made a mighty effort and grabbed a mouthful of the hay. More blows, more cheers, and, after pausing irresolutely for unother moment, ho made tho final loap up onto tho dock. In the meantime no amount of coax ing, poking or pushing could induce the rod steer to stir. Again and again ho looked over into tho water as if meditating a leap. Tho prowess of his companion only seemed to eon vinco him of tho impossibility of his doing likewise. He glanced around in terror, then, undeterred by tho crowding horns at tho foot of tho pas sage, ho turned in some indescribable way, though tho spaco soemod much too narrow for him, and dashod down among his companions to sock his old quarters. Tho mon lot him go and devoted their attention to tho others. Now that ono steer had scrambled up tho steep inclino it was not so difficult to porsuado tho rest to follow his exam ple, particularly with fresh wisps of hay as inducements. Some proved intractable, and, after scrambling partly up tho gangway, retraced their steps, and created panic among their fellows waiting at tho foot. Tho cow boys did not permit these to havo their own way, as did the rod steer. Thoy seized them by the horns and forced them to turn and again essay tho difficult passage. Tho rod-chocked cowboy, whoso tatterod coat attested his valor, was particularly efficient in managing the rebellious spirits among the herd. "That's Dave Erricson. Ho's a rare hand with tho cattle," com mented tho Captain. "Ono night, when wo wero loading further up tho river, and had a particularly wild lot of Colorados to deal with, two bul locks jumped overboard. Quick as a flash, Dave was over aftor them. Ho straddled the back of tho nearest ono, got hold of his horns, used them as a rudder, and steered that steer exactly whero ho wantod him to go. Wo got thorn both back, and it was a pitch dark night, too." "Cattlo swim well, don't they?" uskod tho reporter. "Swim splendidly. If tho weather if hot and thoy happen to ho thirsty they would just us liof jump over board us not. They're not us silly us sheep, though. When we'ro loading sheep, if one jumps over into the water tho whole business follow, whether thoy want to or not. That's their nature." "Aro tho cattlo over seasick when there's a heavy sea on?" asked the re porter. "No, novor. I uover know one of them to refuso its food. Horses get seasick, hut not cattle. Sometimes when there's a big storm all the com partmonts that restrain tho cuttle, and tho railings to which they arc tied, are washed away. Then the ocoan drovers havo work trying to keep them in ordor. Sometimes every thing is washed away, and cattle and all go to tho bottom ; but tho owners don't care, because each bullock is fully insured as soon as it leaves tho stock yard." Every ono of tho cattlo destined for shipment is inspoctod at tho stock yard by a United States Inspector, and has a numbered metal tag inserted in tho right ear. This is a matter of courtesy to tho English Government, and to certify that tho cattlo are sound. SELECT SIFTINGS. Whales havo beon capturod ns far up tho Thamos as Greenwich.
