The Bama tribe in the Congo district of Africa have a number of strange and horrible customs, but of them all their burial customs are the most terrible. When a man dies a 1 large grave Is dug. The corpse and : his wives?these may be ai^where from two to twenty?are escorted to i the hole with wild music and the InI terested attendance of the entire tribe. The chief wife Is thrust Into the hole, and the corpse Is then lowered. The ! second wife follows. The dead man's J relatives then proceed to break the i J arms and legs of the two wives so ' they cannot get out of the hole. The i head of the corpse Is placed In the lap | of the head wife, and the feet In the . lap of the second wife. | The rest of the wives are then thrust ? into the hole, their limbs broken, and | they are forced to sit in a circle about .1 the corpse and Its human supporters. |; The priest chants a few words, and > everyone falls to with rude shovels, J j dishing earth into the hole. They nev> er stop until the grave Is full and the I corpse and the living wives burled far 1 under the earth. The howls of the I wives with their broken limbs and fear ; of the terrible death are drowned by i the banging of drums and the yells of I the delighted tribe. > IN THE NAME OF RELIGION! Weird and Savage Rites Indulged In by the Khlysts, 8ect of Russian Fanatics. One of the queer religious sects of the world Is the Chrlsts or Khlysts of Russia. They hold their meetings in their churches with hundreds of men, women nnd children attending. After prayers and hymns that last until midnight they begin a wild dance amid sobs and groans. After this continues for a wMle they abandon their garments and put on white robes and white stockings. Candles are lighted, and a new dance begins that consists of rapidly revolving, the men to the right, the women to the left. In a short time a sort of madness falls upon them. They leap, scream, beat thejnselves and each other, indulge in wild laughter and cries, and then begin to tear off the garments with shouts of "It Is coming, the Holy Spirit is coming!" They begin to go about on all fours, riding on one another's backs, rolling about on the floor, biting and scratching one another, and at last go entirely insane and dash about until they fall exhausted. By dawn the church floor * * -?n<AmAn , IS covered wnn iianeu ujcu, > and children, unconscious and bloodJ stained. Weather's Effoot cn Birds. Cold and hunger In England has driven armies of birds, even the wildest, Into streets and gardens and unwonted places. Great flocks of green plover, which are singularly shy as a rule, appeared In the stackyards and paddocks of Hertfordshire villages. In Buckinghamshire several thousand rooks In a flock was no rarity; and old scouts came right up to the back doors and competed for their food with the poultry and the pigs. In London It was curious to see the pigeons feeding busily on the Ice, to the obvious Irritation of the gulls, whose bills are useless for securing fragments 1 from a hard surface. It was hard to ' be defeated by a land bird ln^ their , own element. Starlings showed even greater ability In picking up morsels I from the floes and even the water of the river, a feat very foreign to their nature. The Boy of It The three children were on the street car on their way to school?a boy and two younger sisters. The sisters disputed who was to push the button to notify the street car conductor to stop the car. The older sis ter won and held her finger on the button for more than a block. Then ! her brother rose, pulled her hand away arbitrarily and pushed the but! ton. The older sister stepped Into ' the vestibule, followed by her sister, . to be the first to step off the car. As | It stopped, the brother brushed them . aside and led the way. The sisters having alighted, waited for the car to . go on, but the hoy rushed across the J tracks, ignoring the warning clanging of the hell by the motorman. ' Microbes In'Sugar Bowl. ! About one per cent of the Cuban ; sugar crop, valued at $1,500,000, Is P each year destroyed by greedy microjj organisms too sriiHll to be seen except . when congregated in crowds of railjj lions. Molds and bacteria are Ihe . culprits. It la estjmated that each jj person in the United States consumes <: S1.84 pounds of sugar each year. At jj this rate, 873,000 persons could be suph piled with the sugar destroyed by J germs. The sugar loses !t? sweetness r when the molds consume the sucrose. p Its "sweetening" principle. I Marble Cheaper Than Wood. I A report to Washington from the t American commercial attache in Rome J is to the effect that American.lumber has gone to such price heights in the Italian market that builders find if cheaper to put in marble staircases thun to build them of wood. Such ie the combined effect of mill cost, plus freight rates, multiplied by the exchange premium of four to one that ' liana.') tuyere, have to pay to translate our money into theirs.?New Or* leans Times-Picayune. , ? Save Surplus Butter. At this season of the year the dairy ( division has many inquiries asking if there is any way store surplus butter so that it will be good for use in seasons of shortage, says M. R: Tol- j strup, associate piofessor of dairy- ^ . ing, who gives below simple instruc- j , lions by which the surplus butter of j the early summer months may be pre- ( served for future use. Because of the J disposition on the part of many farmers to give more attention to home < j dairying, there seems to be a consid- ( , erably greater surplus of farm butter | ! this year than ever before. t I Chum the butter in the usual way, i j but be sure to waoh it well with pure j | water so that as nearly as possible all ( i the buttermilk is removed. This is | I ' " ? * iw knlfov dOCft. I Illipui Icill W ut tauac 1X1 MUlrVgi bliv VU0V ^ I in a part of buttennilk, is the first in- | gredient to spoil or deterioate. The . buttre should be -rlted and worked in the usual manner. . When this is done, secure a stone jar of suitable size for the amount ^ of butter to be stored. Clean the jar , properly and pack the surplus butter solidly in the bottom if it.. Then ^ cover the butter with about two inches | of saturated salt brine solution, which < may be obtained by taking clean, cool, water and putting into it as much 1 pure cooking salt as will disolve there. In place of the salt solution, dry salt to the depth of one or two inches may # be put on top of 1he butter. The purpose of salt or brine is to exclude air bacteria from outside sources. Then cover the jar with a clean cover and put aside in a clean, cool, and preferably dark place until the next churn ing is made and a new supply of butter is to be put in the par. At such a time uncover the jar and empty the salt or the brine and if desired rinse | the top of the butter in the jar with cool water to remove any surplus j salt or brine. Ad.l the new supply of j butter as before and set the jar aside j until the next churning time. j Butter put up in this manner will j keep for several months without los- i j ing very much of its original fine flav- | or and aroma or any of its food value J and wholesomeness. Best of all, it j provides a profitable market for sur- j plus farm butter and assures a con- j venient supply of butter at reasonable prices during the season "of shortage. ???

Addressing the amiual rally and ;arbecue of the Georgia Farmers.' Jnion July 4th, United States Sena,or Thomas E. Watson attacked the 'ederal reserve board in Washington. :hargitfg it with waging a warfare on American business. Quoting from figures given by John Skelton Williams, former comptroller )f the currency, the senator declared ;he federal reserve board for the last en months had conducted war against \merican business as "ruthless, frightful and detsructive as the Germans conducted on land and sea." He said he destruction of values caused by the <nntra/>t!nn r>f rVtf> nivrPTIfV hv the ,V*i?iMVV?V?ft *r roard without notice or warning had amounted to about $31,000,000,000. Senator Watson also made a strong ?ppeal to the Georgia legislature to provide during the present session for Tree school books in the common schools. Governor Hard wick also addressed he gathei'ing which was estimated at eetween 12,000 to 15,000 persons. Charles S. Barrett, president of the jS liaiEUlBftl! ? ~ 1 ?

Both Mr. Watson and Governor Hardwick discussed the race question briefly. Mr. Watson urged self-restraint and conservation on both sides and full legal rights for the negro. "To go further than that is treading upon dangerous ground," he added, "The right to vote is a political right. Whenever the black man votes it is by privilege of the white man who fought out the civilization in which the black man finds himself." Tn trmrhina uiwn tbp rare nroblem Governor Hard wick declared "God Almighty made this a white man's country and by His splendor and grace we will keep it so." Congressman Upshaw, of Georgia, and others also made addresses.
