Working on the Roads.
The county is spending the coma*
mutation tax by hiring an overseer
in each township who works a gang
of hands on the public roads. Mr.
H. J. Bellinger :is the overseer in ;
this township. The overseer is paid
is $2.00 a day and the hands $1.00 a i
day. We understand that something
5(j like $1,200 will be received in this
?n township from the commutation tax,
ie of which $500 has already been spent
in on the roads. We believe the of[5
ficials would have secured better rect
suits had they used this tax or a i
1(j large part of it in building a few
e> miles of first-class highways out from
s the court house, instead of spending
r. a portion of the money in each townn_
ship. It is the idea of the county
T_ board to spend on the roads in each 1
township the money paid for road
s_ purposes by the township. <

WEST INDIAN WITCHCRAFT.
Obeah Doctor Wrought Demonstration
That Convinced.
Those who are turning longing
eyes in the direction of the West Indies
at this season of the year
hoping to escape the rigors of our
winter climate, will not find on the
announcements of the tourist agencies
one of the most interesting attributes
of those balmy islands.
While everybody who has been to
the-islands has heard of the "jumbies"
mentioned, it is only those who
have stayed for some length of time =
and become acquainted with the natives
who will have had a chance to
see their Obeah doctors with their
offensive personalities, which, once ^
seen, are never to be forgotten. ^
The owner of a large sugar cane a
plantation?a very sensible, well in- 11
tentioned Englishman?had very lit- ^
tie faith in the superstitions of the
blacks, although he frankly admitted
that he was at a loss how to confute
them. One morning, an hour af- ^
ter his help had gathered in the r<
fields, he sought out a traveler whose
acquaintance he had made, and to
whom he had spoken of some of the e<
peculiarities of farming as practiced 0:
in that section. P
11
"You are familiar with Obeahism u
and its practices already," he began, s<
"and you know that our 'quashees' 81
call persons who have had the jumbies
set upon them very dangerous to tl
have around or to be made associates, k
Well, let me tell you the predicament a:
that I find myself in this morning r<
through my determination to ignore 01
our local superstitions and act ac- ft
cording to the mandates of a white
man's nature. 0
"Some time ago a woman came to n:
me with a pitiful story. She said she ci
had become the victim of some un- fi
known enemy, and that the Obeah b
doctor had set the jumbies upon her. P<
Am oViq mont micfnrtiir>A nr>_ 3.]

companied her. All with whom she
came in contact shunned her, so that fi
she could obtain no work on the is- C
land and was in danger of starving, tl
Almost against my judgment I hired si
her, thinking that perhaps among e:
the large number of 'quashees' that fii
I employed in my fields that she n
might not be noticed. is
"This morning I discovered my error,
for I was waited upon by a dele- D
gation of my laborers, who told me u
3trange stories of what was going on ai
In my fields. According to their re- t<
citals, which I did not then wholly be- w
lieve, snakes were jumping out of the
cane brakes in alarming' numbers, D
the sickles were turning in the hands tl
of the cane cutters and injuring E
them; queer insects, some deadly n
poisonous, were hopping about the a:
ground, and showers of stones were ir
rising ffom the earth at intervals A
and bombarding them. ai
"The story seemed preposterous, g<
but the annoyance had assumed h<
alarming proportions, and they be- w
lieved it to be wholly due to the qi
hoodooed woman whom they had dis- si
povered to be working beside them.' n<
"With a desire to see for myself t
what condition my hands were in I ir
mounted my horse and rode around pi
the fields trying to calm the blacks, p]
who had stopped work and were loit- I
ering in groups on the edge of the w
:ane talking over the situation. Three le
dt four times my horse shied as a bi
snake sprang out of the brakes, and w
twice he pricked up his ears as a it
creature entirely unknown to me, but ci
resembling an iguana, ran across his p]
path. m
"Then, to my surprise, I was hit on ct
the back by a stone that rose directly cc
from among the cane, and as it fell i
to the ground I sprang off my horse F:
and picked it up. It was a round w
in/1i(ronf?tc /"? thiff PrtTintrV. oi

and as I raised it several drops of
water exuded from it and trickled 6i
Sown my fingers. I turned it over, gi
and on one side was a rude cross? iE
made by a piece of chalk apparently n(
?but it could not be effaced even by
energetic rubbing.
"What did you do after that very a1
practical demonstration?" asked the ^
planter's tourist friend. ^
"Discharged the woman! There S?
was no help for it. I had to get my g.
'quashees' back into the field and my
can cut. Now all is peace. The g
snakes and insects have disappear- g(
ed. My hands heaped the mystic
stones in a pile at one corner of the
field from whence they have not
jumped. I turned- my attention to
finding the Obeah doctor, who was si
doubtless hidden somewhere in the w
brakes, but that was a hard thing to R
do in such a growth of foliage and I
had no such good luck."?New York "w

Hon. Xeal Dow, ,v
Neal Dow was so fortunate as to
ave his lot cast in pleasant places,
[e came in 1804 to bless the hearts
nd lives of English parents who
lade their home in Portland, Maine1
ie State which has had a prohibi>ry
law longer than any other State
1 the union.
A splendid argument for putting
lings that are harmful out of the
*ach of people was made by him
hen only six years of age. His
ither possessed a large, old-fashiond
silver watch, so large that it hung
n the wall instead of being in his
Hut nf childish PiiriositV
le "ticker" was taken down and
irutinized?when lo! it dropped, 1
lppose, and broke. A rebuke fol>wed.
Neal then told his father
aat the watch should have been
ept out of his reach. What better
rgfiment can be advanced than that
jlative to the putting aside?even
ut of our reach?all things harmll?
Let us not forget the social side
E Mr. Dow's life. While a young
tan he affiliated himself with a so:al
institution called the "volunteer
re department." At one of their
anquets, a man who was not a
arty to Mr. Dow's excellent temperQce
views proposed this toast,
Brandy and water, water for the
re and brandy for the firemen."
hief Dow responded wittily and, at
le close of his speech, made this
atement, "Brandy and water; water
Ktinguished the fire and brandy the
remen." Influenced by this godly
tan, the fire department finally ban
ihed wine from their spreads.
Long before this, however, Mr.
ow and his sister put their veto
pon its use at their table. It was
3 common too, for folk in that day
> serve wine at their meals as it
as to have chocolate and coffee.
Be it said to his credit that Mr.
ow was at all times the friend to
lose who needed a strong friend,
ver a friend to those who suffered
tost because 6f the dreadful use ol
Icoholic liquor was he. A striking
icident regarding this is told of him,
n acquaintance came to him once
ad asked him to use his efforts to
et a liquor dealer to refuse to sell
er husband strong drink. Mr. Dow
ent to the man and made his reaest
known unto him with the relit
that some facts, which should
ot have existed, were thrust in his
teth. We learn that Mr. Dow said
t regard to the occurrence: "Surrised,
disappointed, indignant, *1 relied
to the effect that sooner or later
would see that he and all like him
ere driven from the community unss
they abandoned their infamous
usiness. The incident affected me
ith vital force. As I reflected upon
as only one of the thousands of
ises into which it might be multilied,
with a product of misery to so
iany helpless women and innocent
lildren, I became more strongly
mvinced that my duty was clear,
resolved to try and discharge it.
rom that day I have followed it
ith such strength of body, mind
id purpose as God has given to me."
Mr. Dow was a temperance work
and speaker not only in the United
tates but in England also. -Strong
i the fixed belief that total abstiance
was right he set himself to
*ht the monster?rum?legally.
Miss Willard thought it would .be

culated among the people calling for J
an election to be held at the general
election this fall en the dispensary , 1

ing liquor with the general electioa
There is being circulated, so he has
heard, a petition ot vote at the general
election on the reestablishment
( of a dispensary in Chester county.
( "This will be a terrible mistake/' ,
, said Mr. Henry, "because everybody .
. votes Democratic and Republican at
the general election. It means that
the liquor interests will have an op- *3
, portunity to get some negro votes
on this question, and gradually this
interest will see that the negro is re,
gistered in order to vote him at the
, general election. ' '^-3
"To mix a vote on liquor with our
^ general election is the most danger'
ous move made in this State for
many years. It will prove the begin- \
p ning of the end to undisturbed white 5
supremacy. i
"Two years ago I predicted, from
signs that I saw in the political sky, * -j
, that this move would be made. The
only safe thing to do is tcr refuse to
sign such a petition for such an election
except during an off election ) ^

be kept clear of our politics." /
