NOTICE IS CALLED
TO USE OF TRANSFERS
MR. H. A. ORR EXPLAINS WHY
TRANSFERS ARE GIVEN
TO PASSENGERS.
AN ERRONEOUS IDEA
Is Prevalent Among Some and In
formation Is Given In Order
to Correct This.
The Southern Public Utilities com
pany 1H placing Hlgns In its curs call
ing the passengers attention tu ? tho
fact that transfers are only good lor
a continuous trip.
To a reporter of the intelligencer
.Mr. H.A. Orr, branch manager, stat
ed us an explanation of this notice,
that som?; of the passengers were
der an erroneous Iden aw to the uso
rf transfer, they being under thc
Impression that lt wus good until us
ed. Mr. Orr. went on to state that
a transfer was given HO US to enable
the passenger to continue his trip J
when the car that he origlonally
boarded did not go to his destination,
and this ls readily seen as transfers
are not given when the passenger ts
able to complete his trio on the same
car. For instance, If you board an
Orr mill car going to the college no
transfer would bp glv?n you, us tbe
one car would cur y you to your de
stination. Hut if you wanted to go
to t'-ie llrogon Mill you would have
to change cars and a transfer is there
foro given you ns a notice to the
Hrogon mill conductor that you have
paid your fare und ar,, entitled to a
continuous trip. On tho other hand,
if you boarded a car at Orr mills
and only Intended going to the square
you would not need a transfer. How
ever, If later on In the day your bus
iness required you to go on the Bro
gon nilli line, you would pay your
fare without any question.
The Southern Public I'tlllties com
pany feels that those who have mis
understood the usages of a transfer
will readily see their mistake as soon
aa tiley have given the matter some
thought and lt ls to call their at
tention to this fact that the notices
are placed tn the cars.

We can but say:
A flower plucked from earth below
With beauty now hld from our sight,
But yet 'twill shine In heaven, we
know,
Forever where there Is no night.
We i-now 'tis true
We'll miss her here for Just awhile
Because her words did cheer us BO,
But up in heaven she wlll smllo
Forever where we too can go.
t - rv
We all can say
lier presence wo had learned to love j
Because aha fondly cheered us all,
But Jesus took her home above
And leit us here to walt His Call.
! ? : i
We all believe
He loved ber best, wo know 'ti.; true
Because for her He gave His lifo
Then said, I surely will como for you,
And take you home where la no
strife.
How great the thought
And now abo's with Him up above.
And with our loved ones gone before
There to-sing redeeming love
Forever and forever more.
Oh! to be sure
And now we know if sho could tell
The wondrous things already seen
She'd bid our hearts with joy tri swell
And lay asido our griefs so- J jen.
If she could spesk
She's say to father and mother, dear.
And then to brothers and sisters, too,
Don't weep for me nor shed a tear |
For I am here to walt for you.
O weep no more
Dry up yotu tears and press along
And trust in Jesus day by day
For angels.here do sing the songs
That drive our sorrows ali away.
For I'm at rest
Don't weep and grieve because I'm
blest
And dona with aches and nain ana]
grier
For I am here with Christ at rest
Wher* all who Unat , Him find re
lier.
I'll wait for you
And now for you I'll watch and wal
To welcome you into my home
TH meet you at the pearly gates
To enter In no more to roam.
WHEN tlie Australian troopB
took the Gurman part ot
New Guinea early in the war.
Great Urltaln became the
possessor of fully half of the
largest Island In the world, for Aus
tralia and Greenland aro properly
small continents. Tho other half be
longs to Holland.
New Guinea surpasses Madagascar
In size. Its length being 200 miles
greater than the distance from New
York to Chicago, says Rene Dache in
tho Host o ii Herald. Its area ls equal
to tliut of Fiance and tho British iBles
combined. Hut wbut renders it most
interesting is that, it is today the least
known portion of the habitable world,
fully nine-tenths of tho island being
as yet unexplored.
Tills may well seem surprising when
lt ls considered thut New Guinea is
separated from tho north coast of
Australia only by a broad strait. A
glance ct a map of thc world will
show that lt ls in reality the largest
member of the great archipelago In
the eastern seas, which Includes the
Philippine islands on the north and
Horneo and Sumatra on the west. The
line of tho equator runs almost direct
ly through lt.
Ferocious Black Cannibal?.
New Guinea ls inhabited by tribes of
ferocious black people, with /rent
mops of woolly hair, who evince ut
most hostility toward all Intruders.
When vessels have been wrecked up
on their inhospitable shores they have
in a number of known instances cap
tured the unfortunato mariners and
eaten them. Rut if the island is to so
great an extent a terra incognita to
day it ?B not mainly on this account,
but because of its unhealthful climate.
TISHINO WITH 1
From the foothills of the huge inonu- \
tain range, running through its entire
length from east to west, extend to
north and south vast swampy plains
covered with dense forestH, intersected
by innumerable streams, and haunted
by the deadliest of fevers.
Thus it comes about that German
New Guinea is practically an unknown
land, except for a narrow strip along
the coast, while the portion hitherto
held by Great Britain has been ex
plored only in part, and what ls known
of the Dutch hair of the Island was
ascertained malnl; by an Englls'h ex
pedition undertr.icn In 1910.
Thia expedition, headed by Capt. Ce
cil G. Rawllng, which penetrated some,
distance into the interior and made
considerable surveys, came across
tribes of hitherto unknown pygmies,
the men barely reaching 4 feet 7 Inches
In height. It ls presumed that the
women are proportionately smaller,' j
but no bribes or other persuasions
could Induce these little folk to pro
duce any of their females for Inspec
tion-lest, as seemed to be feared, they
might be captured and curled off. Ap
parently the pygmies are of the samo
dwarf race, evidently very ancient,
that is found in the Philippines, In the,
Andaman Islands and In equatorial!
Africa.
The savagea along the coast, on the
other band, are good-sized people, re-'|
markably muscular and with a great
development of chest. The men are j |
sooty black, the women being slightly j
fairer. Among them are occasional;!
albinos, with dirty reddish hair, their j
pink skins blotched unpleasantly with
darker color. Both sexes go nearly!
naked, the women wearing either a.
short grass petticoat or a atrip of
bark cloth paased between the lega
and held te place by a string tied
around the waist. For the man a
gourd similarly attached in front often
serves the purpose of raiment
Native Village One Long Room.
A native village ls one long room,
which may extend io any length, the
newest member of such a community
building tts hut on the .end of the
row, withe* A any partition. Thus
there ls no attempt at privacy, though
each family haa Its own doorway and
its own fireplace. The floor ls of sand
fresh from the seashore and covered
with grass mats, and the only farnl*
tere consista of elaborately carved
one would think, for sleeping pur?
Dangling from the roof, and'
anch blackened by smoke, aro human tl
l's ana bones, farmed* bvivagute/*
to defunct relativ s, the bones being
sometimes contali ed in woven grass
bagB.
The price of a wife among these
primitive people may be anything
from a yard of ca leo to an ax head,
according to tho ihyslcal attractions
and domestic accc npllshmenta of the
woman.
The savage war iors of New Guinea
adorn the m sol ves rlth crowns of par*
adise feathers, wh1 :h are held in place
by a band of plait >d grass enclrc'mg
the head. Some ina es they wear a
sort of halo, the rays of which are
many pieces of ca m plaited into the
hair and standing mt at right angles
to the scalp. Such a headdress, which
is not disturbed or emado for months,
must be rather um imfortable to sleep
in. J
To lend a ?eros expression to the
face the beak of t e bambill split in
two is worn thro gh a hole in the
septum of the no e, In such a way
that the two thin vhito blades, each
five or BIX Inches lc ig, curve up at the
ends like Kaiser V Ubelm's mustache.
In Perpet al Strife.
Captain Rawllng, in his book, "The
Land of the New Guinea Pygmies,"
says that the nativa are engaged In
perpetual strife ami drunken brawls
their favorite Intoxicant being a fer
mented liquor obtal
palm. Just outside!
way stand the ov&er's spears and
stone clubs, which
are used in domes
tic quarrels or to ffght with enemies.
Violent temper seems to be a char
acteristic of theBO avages, and with
hardly a moment's) ? arning the peace
ful village is convi ted Into a scene
of turmoil and strl J. apeara whits;

with murderous intent, and the place
resounds with ferocious yells.
At intervals raid* are undertaken
to procure heads as trophies and hu
man flesh for food. . There are no
fiercer cannibals, judging from all ac
counts, than those of New Guinea. In
1868 a vessel was wrecked off the
coast of British New Quin' \, and SOO
men on board of her, all of them Chi
nese, were m Mooned on a email is
land. There they were fed and sys
tematically fattened by the natives,
no escape being possible, and at inter
vals, aa required, two or three of them
at a time were, taken to the mainland,
boiled in a spring of hot water and
eaten.
Women have no rights among the
natives of New Guinea. They aro
treated as slaves, worked almost ta
death and savagely beaten when their
owners happen to bo in a bad humor,
which is often. It is their business to
cultivate the fields of banana and rice,
while their lords and masters attend
to the fighting and hunting. It a wxa
chooses to murder his wife, nobody In- j
terreras, and nothing much seems to
be thought of it.
New Guinea la. for naturalists an
unexplored wonderland. It has many |
ap?elos of birds that aro as yet un
known tb science. The forests are tull
of parrots and other feathered crea
tures of brilliant plumage, and among
the marine curiosities along the coast
are Ashes that climb trees. Tbe
swamps swarm with the deadliest
snakes. As for the mammals qf the
Island: nearly, all of them are, like
thoa? of nearby Australia, marsupi

A serious effort is being made to

as yet little success hoe been obtained,

Gravity Fire Escape Made Like Be

Constructed in the form ot an end
less-chain ladder, an automatic fire
escape has recently -bejm invented
which for operating potter erqoirea
only the weight of a passenger on one
of its rungs. It is supplied with a
speed governor which allows lt to
movp at apre-deterroined vate and
which, for ordinary purposes ls us
ually set at about ino feet a minute.
This ls arranged by a gearing at the
top which is driven by tbe main shaft
and acts upon a friction brake. The
ladder will accommodate as many per
sons- a tone time as are able to
crowd upon lt and will move no tas
ter under the weight of several pas
sengers than it will under thc weight
of only one. A plcturo of the ladder
in use appears in the July Popular

Chicago A. nitrates.
(Now York Sun. )
Chicago's population, which for
about forty-eight wus depraved of its
ordinary transportation facilities, will
not question the terms on which thc*
dispute that tied up its surface and
elevated railroads is sent to arbitra
tion. Wbist lt wants more than any-,
thing else ls to 'have the cars tn mo
tion, and thp resumption of the ser
vice will put a period to the whole
subject tn the minds of a large ma
jority of Its citizens.
Whether the absence of violence is
to ho attributed to Mavor Thompson's
firm stand for order, the seif-restraint
of the men, or an unusual degree
of tact and skill on the part, ot the
managers, it has been a marked and
?".ntifylmr concomitant of the dispute.
That rioting might have begun had
the negotiations .ooklng town-'d peace
fallen through ls of course true, but
the fact that the strike was carried
on without resort to the bludgeon and
the bomb, and without necessitating
tho use of their olubs by t?ie polio?,
is highly creditable to the men wiro
quit their Jobs and to their leaders.
The workhien of Chicago-have lived
In an atmosphere of unrest for months,
and the railway men's strike was the
gravest incident of a long series of
labor difficulties. The manner of its
terlmlnatlon ls distinctly reassuring
and holds the promise of a settlement
not permanently unsatisfactory to
both sides.
