Theabofiglndlinhabitanls of New Zealand
are called Maoris (pronounced Mowries), and
their traditions reach back for 600 or 700
years. Thwe traditions tell ‘us that a chief-
taln was driven from Hawaiki and came
with a large war canoe auda number of
companions to the shores of New Zealand.
He subsequently returned home and gave
such glowing descriptions of the new land
that many canoeloads of his compatriots
started out. The names of these canoes have
been preserved, and the tribal organization
of the Maoris isbased on their descent from
these progenitors. Calculations made in ac
cordance with the genealogies preserved by
the priests show that about twenty-seven gell-
erations have passed by since the original
settlers’ arrival. Hawaiki is generally sup-
to be Hawaii, and thus the Maoris are
Sandwich Islanders. The early Dutch 'ex—
plorer, Tasman, discovered New Zealaud in
1642, but owing to a boat’s crew being mas-
sacred by the natives he did not land. The
first European to land was the famous Capt.
Cook, who had been sent out to Tahiti by
the English government to observe a transit
of Venus.
When Capt. Cook visited them he intro-
duced pigs, poultry, potatoes and other vege-
tables. From Capt. Cook’s pigs the wild
boar of modern New Zealand, which aflfords
such fine sport to those fond of hunting with
a considerable spice of danger in it, is the di‘
rect descendant. A recent American traveler
tells us that American Whalers, in pursuit of
the sperm whale, visited the islands as early
as the year 1800, and that the offspring of
the intermarriages of the sailors with Maori
girls are still to be plainly distinguished, and
for the most part show a desire to associate
themselves as 'closely as possible with the
white man and to enter into business pur-
suits. The natives were entirely given
up to cannibalism, and verymuch relished
“long pig,” as human flesh was called.
ENGAGED IN CONSTANT FIGHTING.
The early Maoris were engaged in constant
fighting, tribe with tribe, the smallest pre-
text sufllcing to fan the flames of war.
Whenever human flesh became a scarce ar-
ticle of food, one tribe would attack another,
and after a bloody struggle the survivors
would feast upon the bodies of their prison-
ers. In the Hot Lake district, where red hot
stonw were easily obtainable, the flesh was
roasted on them. They had no belief in any
Supreme Being, but believed that everything
was evolved out of darkness. They were di-
vided into several tribes, and each tribe
owned its territory in common. Certain
buildings, places and things were made
“tapu,” that is, they must not be touched or
hurt, or the vengeance of the tribe would
fall on the unhappy violator of religious
sentiment. The district around Auckland is
covered with the craters of extinct volcanoes,
and in the early days each of these craters
was fortified by the natives, who Were es-
pecially skillful in constructing stockade
camps, or “pahs,” astbey are called.
The canoes of the Maoris are dug outs of
great length and extreme narrownem. To
propel them, short handled, single bladed
paddles are used, and on swift streams very
great skill is shown by the boatmen. They
lived partly on fish, which they caught in
nets, being expert fishermen, partly on rats,
these being the largest animal native to the
country prior to the introduction of pigs by
Capt. Cook. They had also a vegetable
which-is now called the “sweet potato," but
sweetest of all to their taste was the flesh of‘
men. For weapons they had spears and clubs,
the latter being often made of acurious semi-
opaque stone peculiar to the country, called
green stone. This stone is now used by jewel-
ers to make into earrings, brooches and
charms, and a real green stone club is be-
coming scarce and valuable. When white
women were few in numbers asthcy were
among the first settlers, many intermarriagcs
took place between the white men and the
Maori girls. and even in recent times Eng-
lishmen have married Maori women who
possessed large estates. The Maori of the
present day is either adissolute semi-Euro-
peanired town loafer, or is a resident of one
of the reservations set apart by the govern-
ment. Natives live on the income brought
in by the land allotted to them by the gov-
ernment, and in the Hot Lake district on the
compensation they receive for acting as boat-
meu on the lake, or as guides to the volcanic
wonders of the region.
PHYSICAL CHARACTERISTICS.
The full blooded Maori is, us a rule, well
formed and isabout five feet six inches in
height, the body and arms being longer than
those of the average Englishman, while the
legs are shorter. The calves are largely de-
veloped, and as a. carrier of burdens the
Maori probably surpasses the white, while
the white surpasses him in strength and gen-
eral endurance. The older native women
are tattooed about theflips, while the men are
tattooed all over the face and nose. The
young women for the most part, especially
those who live near white settlements,
do not tattoo their faces. The girls are often
good looking, having good features, very
fine dark eyes and a pleasing expression.
They wear a skirt and a bright colored blan-
ket. The morality of the Maori girls is very
poor, almost nonexistent, but when a woman
is married she is sacred, and death would
probably be the outcome of any attack upon
her chastity. The Maori man is very lazy
and expects his wife to gather fruit, dig up
roots and collect berries for him. Sometimes
the native women have a Jewish type of face
and then they are usually very fine looking,
for their eyes are always good. Most of the
Maoris are professed Christians and the ma-
jority of these are Roman Catholics.
The health of the natives is often delicate,
many of them suffering from lung com-
plaints; but this is to be attributed to their
manner of life. They wear European or
semi-European dress during the day and at
night in their “whores,” or cabins, wear only
the native blanket, whence chills often re-
sult. Sometimes, too. thirty or more persons
congregate together in one “where,” where
two fires areburning on the ground. All
smoke vigorously, and after passing some
hours in this atmosphere the visitors go out
clad in a single garment on a bright, clear,
cool night. They also often eat unwholesome
food, such as rotten maize, or fish in a high
state of decomposition, and many, too, are
addicted to whisky, and find means of get-
ting it, though the sale of alcohol in any
form to natives is strictly prohibited by law.
They are very peaceable among themselves
and toward whites; even when drunk they
do not become quarrelsome or disposed to
fight, and it has been remarked that the
children never cry. After one of their great
feasts there usually comes a fast, for they eat
up everything without thought for the
future. 011 such occasions they would be
starved to death were .it not for the kindness
of th'ewhito settlers and such nourishment
as the Women. can gather in the shape of
roots and berries. -—San Francisco Chronicle.
LIFE ON A PLANTATION.
Sauce of Supplies for tho Kitchen—An
Amateur’s Cook Book But'chery.
A plantation is alittle world of its own;
and housekeeping has to have a primitive
completeness about it; a housekeeper must
be what the ball managers call “a good all
round player.” Figure to yourself our situ-
ation, for instance. We are six miles of
swamp from the nearest railway station.
The plantation store is the only source of
supplies outside the mailbag. The store keeps
alittle of everything, from quinine to agri-
cultural implements. But it confines itself
to the necessaries of life. For the luxuries
we must depend on the mail rider. To buy
by letter one needs to know very distinctly
what she wants. There is a class of goods
kept by grocers especially for those people
in the country who do not know what they
want. It is labeled “For country custom.”
It is cheap and—l
Just as a plantation housekeeper must be
a bit of a grocer, she must be a bit of a but-
cher. On a plantation one depends for meat
upon her own flocks and herds. Does she de-
sire beefi then kill a cow; is it mutton that
is wanted? a sheep is shot. For the rest, the
woods are full of game; and vension and wild
turkeys have the variety. It results that a
quarter of beef is the usual division. Half a
sheep, half a deer, a quarter of beef—that
was our usual share. The housekeeper needs.
in the first place, to know how long meat
should be kept. We didn’t; and I never shall
forget the marvelous toughness and queer
flavor of the beef that we only kept three
days. A week is the shortest time that one
should keep beef in the cold season. I think,
too, it would pay any housekeeper 11 a. plan-
tation to take a few lessons from a butcher
about cutting up meat. '
How vivid, still, is the picture of the three
of us helplessly watching Henry, the man,
shifting the hind quarter of beef. on the cy—
press stump which served us as a meat block,
in hopes that we may discover the tender-
loin! We read our six cook books, in turn,
and Constance waves Miss Parloa's neat dia-
gram in the air. But somehow the diagram,
with its dotted lines, does not in the least re-
semble the unwieldly mass on the block. If
there only were dotted lines, we might “make
out,” as Henry says; but there are no dotted
lines. and we finally chop it up (with the
hatchet helped out by the wood saw) in a
wayto make a butcher faint with horror.
The fillet was hopelessly lost; I think most of
it was boiled for mince meat. We could not
find anything that looked like sirloin steak,
but Constance contended that ‘a thinnish
piece, anywhere, would make steak: and we
meekly ate a large round with a lump of
bone in the middle. The books declare that
this cut of steak is “very tough ;” we agree
with them—Home Maker.
".7 EXILES AND CONVIGTS.
I
,A COLUMN OF RUSSIAN PRISONERS
EN ROUTE TO SIBERIA.
W: in a Cloud of WA Roadside
F Shrine—The Noondey Halt—The Boast
of the Brody'ag—Rest for the Night.
» Minus.
The column moved at thleate of about two
es an hour, and long before noon it was
enveloped in a suifocating cloud of dust
raised by {the shuffling, fetter encumbered
feet of the prisoners. Inwarm, dry weather,
when there is no. wind, dust is a source of
great misery. to marching parties, particu-
larly to the sick, the women and the children.
There is no possible way of escaping it, and
when a prisoner is suflering from one of the
diseases of the respiratory organs that are
so common in etape life it is simply torture
to sit in a cramped position for six or eight
hours in an open telega, breathing the dust
raised by the feet of 850 men marching in
close column just ahead. Ihave traced the ~
. body and to its maintenance In astute of .
progress of an invisible exile party more
than a mile array by the cloud of dust that
hung over it in the air.
Five orsix miles from Tomsk the party
passed a “chasovnaya,” or roadside shrine,
consisting of an Open pavilion, in which
hung a ghastly wooden efllgy of the crucified
Christ. Here, as upon our departure from
Tomsk, I noticed that two-thirds of the con-
victs removed their caps, crossed themselves
devoutly, and muttered brief supplications.
A Russian peasant may be a highway robber
or a murderer, but he continues, neverthe-
less, to cross himself and'say his prayers.
EALT'nx TEE wavsmn.
The first halt of the party for rest was
made about ten miles from Tomsk, at the en-
trance to a small village. Here, on a patch
of green sward by the roadside, had assembled
ten or twelve girls and old women with bus-
kets of provisions, bottles of milk, and jugs
of “kvass,” or small beer, for sale to the
prisoners. At first sight of these prepara-
tions for their refreshments, the experienced
‘brodyags, who marched at the head of the
column, raised a joyous shout of “va111!
Preevall”—the exile’s name for the noon day
halt. The welcome cry was passed along 1‘ 3
line until it reached the last wagon of “in-
capables,” and the whole party perceptibly
quickened its pace. A walk of ten miles does
not much tire a healthy and unincumbered
man, but to convicts who have been in prison
without exercise for months, and who are
hampered by five pound leg fetters united by
chains that clash constantly between the
legs, it is atrying experience. In less than
a. minute after the command to halt was
given, almost everyman in the crowd was
either sitting on the ground or lying on it at
full length. . After a short rest, the prisoners
began buying food from the provision ven-
ders, in the shape of black rye bread, fish
pie, hard boiled eggs, milk and kvass, and in
half an hour they;wero all sitting on the
ground, singly or in groups, eating their
lunch.
The afternoon march was without note-
worthy incident. The brodyags talked con-
stantly as they walked, raising their voices
so as tomake themselves heard above the
jingling of the chains, while the novices
generally listened or asked questions. There
is the same diflerencc betwcen a brodyag
who has been to the mines half a dozen times
and a novice who is going for the first time
that there is between an experienced cow-
boy nnd a “tenderfoot.” The brodyag knows
the road as the tongue knows the month; he
has an experimental acquaintance with the
temper and character of every convoy ofiiccr
from Tomsk to Kara; and his perilous ad-
ventures in the “taiga”—the primeval Sibe-
rian forest-have given to himaself confi-
dence and a. decision of character that make
him the natural leader in every convict
party. It is the boast of the true brodyag
that the ostrog (the prison) is his father and
tho tniga (the wilderness) his mother, and he
Often spends his whole life in going from one
parent to tho other; he rarely escapes from
Siberia altogether, although he may reach
half a dozen times the valley of the 0b.
Sooner or later ho isalmost always recap-
tured, or is forced by cold and starvation to
give‘himself up. As an etape officer once
said to abrodyag rearrested in western Si-
beria: “The czarfs cow pasture is large, but
you can’t get out of it; we find you at last if
you are not dead”,
.Il‘ES'l' FOR THE NIGHT.
When our convicts, after their toilsome
march of twenty-nine versts from Tomsk,
reached at last the red roofed poloo slope of
Semiluzhnaya, they were marshaled in rows
in front of the palisadc and again carefully
counted by the under ofilcers in order to
make sure that none had escaped, and then
the wooden gate of the court yard was
thrown wide open. \Vith a wild, mad rush
and a. furious clashing of chains, more than
300 mell made a sudden break for the narrow
gateway, struggled, fought and crowded
through it, and then burst into the kamcras,
in order to secure, by preoccupation, places
on the sleeping platforms.
At last the tumult subsided, and the con-
victs began their preparations for supper.
Hot water was furnished by the soldiers of
the convoy at an average price of abouts
cent a teakettlcful; “brick” tea was made by
the prisoners who were wealthy enough to
afford such a luxury; soup was obtained by
a few from the soldiers’ kitchen; and the
tired exiles, sitting on the sleeping platforms
or on the deer, ate the black breed, the fish
ics, or the cold boiled meat that they had
purchased from the provision venders. The
evening meal is sometimes an exceedingly
scanty one, on account of the failure of the
peasant women to bring to the ctapo for sale
an adequate supply of food. They are
not obliged to furnish subsistence to
convicts on the road, and the exile
administration attempts no regulation of the
commissuriat beyond furnishing the pris-
oners with money for rations. and allowing
the peasants or the soldiers of the convoy to
notes purveyors. In times of scarcity itis
imposible to buy, with the money given to
each exile for his subsistence, enough food
to satisfy hung r. In one district of eastern
Siberia, where there had been a partial fail-
ure of the crops, the exiles could scarcely
buy, with 5 cents a. day, a pougd and a
half of black rye bread, The ctapo oilicers
complained bitterly to me of the indifference
of the government totho sufferings of the
prisoners, and declared that itwas unjust
and cruel to give men only a pound nn-la
half of black bread, and at the same time
force them to march twenty miles a day in
leg fetters, cndiu bitterly cold weather.—

The Freight Engineer’s Duties.
The freight engineman‘s every day thoughts
are largely about the care of his engine and
the perplexities incident to getting out Of it
the minimum amount of work with the
maximum amount of fuel. The constant aim
of his superiors is to have the engine draw
every pound it possibly can. To haul a train
up a long and steep grade n hen the cars are
so heavily loaded that a single additional
one would bring the whole to a dead,.stand-
still requires a. kuack,tbat can be appreciated
only, by. viewing the performance on the spot.
Failure not only wastes time and fuel (it may
necessitate a return to the foot of the hill or
going to the top with only half the load), but
it raises a suspicion that some other runner
might have succeeded better. The runner
whose engine “lays down on the road” (fails
to draw its load because of insufllcicnt fire
and consequent low steam pressure) is liable
to the jcers of his comrades on his return
home, if not to some sharp inquiries from his
superior.—B. B. Adams, J r. , in Scribner’s
Magazine.
Salutation on the Street.
When you are walking with your friend
Brown. and the latter bows and smiles to an
acquaintance on the other side of the street,
watch Brown very closely and you will see
his lips move as he says, barely above his
breath, but loud enough for you, who are by
his side, to hear: “How d’ye do?” The per-
son he is addressing is entirely out of hear-
ing, and Brown knows it, but he will mur-
mur his query just the samc. And when you
have done wondering at his folly and meet
an acquaintance to whom you wish to bow,
note what you do yourself. No matter how
far off your friend is, you’ll murmur “How
d’ye do?” just like Brown did, although you
won’t notice it unless you try to. If you
don’t do this you will be an extraordinary
person, for scientists tell me that nine-tenths
of the human race possess this eccentricity of
accompanying :1. street salutation with this
whispered query, which no one is intended to
and certainly does not bean—Chicago J our-

Plurals for Awkward Names.
A young gentleman of scholarly lnicn the
other day poked his head into the office of
A. B. Wilgus & 00., and solemnly inquired
of a stranger who happened to be sitting
there, “Are any of the Wilgi in?” referring
collectively to Mr. Wilgus and his sons, who
are associated in business with him. He had
- evidently been a student of the classics—at
any rate he had masteredzhis Latin cram- .
mar up to the second deClension.
By the way, would. it not be a movement
in the direction of linguistic reform to gen-
erally adopt the. Latin plural form for the
English names that end in us, and whose En-
glish plural is awkward! Then, instead of
holding caucuses we could hold cauci, and
instead of kicking uprumpuses we would
kick up rumpi. And, judging from some
political events in the Twin Cities, it might
be all the same whether we say cauci or
Iéumpi in speaking of such things-Pioneer

MUST WE EAT MEAT?
MAN SHOULD NOT LIVE BY VEGE- '

So Says a Physician of Experience—A
bloat Diet Considered Best for Nervous
Persons—Eating Too Little—“Ibo Vege-
tarian Idea.
“1' am disposed to exclude vegetables,"
said a physician of experience, “with the ex- ;
ception of cereals and fruit, from the diet of
nervous persons. Why? First, becauseanimal
and to the body generally than vegetable. It .
has all the essential elements for the forlna- ‘,
tion of the tissues of the body and is easily
digested. It appears to be the natural food '
of human beings. It seems possible for man
to exist on it alone ill any climate and con-
tinue ill a normal condition of health. The _
first food taken by man—lnilk—is strictly an
animal substance. It contains all the ele—
lnents necessary to the growth of the human -
health. This cannot be said of any one arti-
cle of vegetable food. Then, the nervous

must be supplied in some form or other in
order that the brain and other nerve struc-
This substance 1
tures shall be properly nourished. If a per- ,
son uses up his brain faster than he makes it
he soon becomes nervous and irritable. If
he does not assimilate enough food to supply
its demands his mind is sure to become '
weak.
“The healthiest and strongest individuals,
even, should eat a far greater proportion of
meat than of vegetable food. Beef should be
taken as the standard meat. It answers
every purpose of the system. Veal and pork
are not as easily digested. Pork, so far as
its composition goes, is an excellent food for
nervous persons, but it is not readily di-
gested. Yet ill the army we used to think
nothing better for the wounded men than
bacon. As a rule salt meat is not adapted to
the requirements of the nervous individual,
as nutritious juices to a great extent go into
the brine. ,
FLESH or WILD BIRDS.
“The flesh of wild birds is more tender and
more readily digested than that of domestic
ones. This is accounted for by the greater
amount of exercise they take, thereby renew-
lng their flesh more rapidly and making it
younger than that of birds which live a more
quiet life. This is a suggestion that might
be of benefit to women of sedentary habits
who are desirous of prolonging an appear
ance of youth. Fish of all kinds is good food
for the nervously inclined. Raw eggs, con-
trary to general opinion, are not as digests-
ble as those that have been cooked.
“A notion has been prevalent that many
persons injure their digestion by eating too
much. The fact is that most people in this
land of abundant food don’t eat enough.
There are more people killed every year by
insufliciency of nourishment than by over-
loading their stomachs. Many of these who
do eat a sufficient quantity are prevented by
some disease from digesting enough for the
economy of their systems. The very first
thing for any one to do who has exhausted
himself by mental work, or who has been
born week and irritable is to furnish his
brainwith sufficient nourishment to either
repair the damage it has sustained or to build
It up into a strong, healthy condition. People
In this condition usually suffer from nervous
dyspepsia Their stomachs are unable to
perform the labor of assimilation. Owing to
:he deficient nerve power of the individual
the food lies in the stomach unncted upon
by the gastric juice because there is none 01'
the quantity is insufficient to have any
power. Food, instead of helping to renew
the body, and the nervous system with the
rest, undergoes fermentation, and the body
and brain it should nourish may starve. The
person is in a worse state than if the food
had not been taken, for the fermentation
generates acids and gas.
I-‘ou NERVOUS INDIVIDUALS.
“Ne'vous individuals may derive all the
fat they need from sugar and starch. It is
better, however, for those with weak diges-
tive organs, or whose nerves are in :1 highly
sensitive state, to get it from the animal
kingdom than to compel their cnfceblcd
stomachs, intestines and pancreas to create
it out of these articles. Good bread, sweet
butter and meatare the best foods for the
nerves. People troubled with insomnia, ner-
vous starting from sleep and sensations of
falling can often be cured by limiting them-
selves to a diet of milk alone for a time. An
adult should take a pint for a meal and take
loxu- meals daily. People with weakened
nerves require usually a larger quantity of
water than those whose brains and nerves
are strong. It aids in the digestion of food
by making it soluble and seems to have a di-
rect tonic cfiect. Hot water is relaxing to
the stomach.
“With proper eating and drinking we
should have fewer broken down, nervous
wrecks and far more vigorous intellects.
The present human species cannot eliminate
flesh from its food and amount to a row of
pins. The fancy that nothing vegetable should
be eaten is apt to overtake every one some-
where in life. It is due to some disorganization,
and usually passes away with the disturb-
ance that created it. This fancy is more apt
to assail the young than the middle aged,
and females more frequently than males. A
nervous, sickly girl of nineteen was put mi.
1191' my care about nine months ago. I found
she had imbibed the vegetarian notion and
practiced it about a year. I limited her diet
to so much meat per meal and a. small quan-
tity of fruit and bread, with a pint of milk.
She doesn’t look like the same girl now. All
that absurd belief in a strict vegetable diet
has left her with her growth of strength and
nerve forever.”—Chicago Herald.

8W COLLEGE;
NEw HAVEN, CONN.
Is the only thoroughly-equipped institution of the kind in the
State, and the only one where actual business is
transacted on a real value
IN UNITED STATES CURRENCY.
View of the Practical Department where Students are engaged in actual business opera-
tions, including the Retail, Wholesale, Jobbing and Commission, and Banking Business;
the business of one office alone averaging from Twenty to Forty Thousand Dollars per
day in College funds, or $50 to $100 in U. S. currency.
This is the manner in which our Students are taught to shoulder the responsibili-
ties of handbag thousands of dollars in their business life.
This institution has graduated more successful business men than nllolhcr business
schools in the State combined. Bank presidents and other prominent and practical busi-
ness men who have made a careful inspection of the College and its several departments,
and especially the banking department, where the books and methods are the same as
those found in any National Bank in the country, concede that no College
in this country offers superior facilities to persons seek-
mg a business education.
WE INVITE THE CLOSEST 301111111112
Into the details of our system of practical business training, and do not fear a comparison
with that of any similar institution in the country. \Ve do not recognize as competitors
those institutions which, without an abiding place or the necessary facilities for imparting
a thorough business education, are constantly presenting their claims for patronage. We
invite any person contemplating a business education to visit our College and inspect our
method of instruction and be convinced of its superiority. -
SHORTHAND AND TYPEWRITI NC.
\Ve desire to call special attention to this new department.
A special teacher is cm—
ploycd, whose whole time is devoted to instruction in this branch, thereby enabling Stu-
deals to pursue the course under personal instruction, and also receive the superior ad-
vantages which this Collegc odors in obtaining situations. It being an independent study,
we form no classes, and scholars may enter at any time.

The Descent Is Rapid.
Then there is another class that are not so
fastidious about the method in which charity
is bestowed. These are the people (usually
men) who go about all day asking a dime
from any passer by who they think would be
likely to let them have it and thou immedi-
ately bldwing it in for beer. \Vllcn night
comes and it is too cold to sleep out of doors,
they are forced to seek the station house or
the Wayfarers’ lodge. There are a. few dc-
scrving men ill this class who are really out
of work and who would work if they could
find any to do, but the major portion of them
are moving on continually because they are
afraid if they remain too long in one place
they would be given something to (lo—and
this they (Il'Olld. And from a life of this kind
the transition to that of a trump is but a few
steps, and if the conditions are ripe the dc-
sccnt is rapid—Boston Globe.
Workers on a Big Daily.
To show the complete satisfaction of most
editors with their present corps of workers,
it is necessary only to quote the remark of
an editor of one of the leading New York
dailies. To a young man whose writing be
greatly admired, and was always willing to
use, he recently said:
“We never discharge our people.
either resign or die.”
The editor of another equally prominent
journal said:
“ch would seem to have an entirely ca.-
pablc staff. Moreover, fully twenty of our
writers could be dispensed with at this mo-
ment, and when the paper comes out to—
morrow its readers would not detect any
change. It would be as complete as before."

To Clip “‘itilout Scissors.
The best way I have ever discovered for the
easy dispatch of newspaper clippings is to
take a. pin and scratch heavily around the
item. It can then be torn out as if the paper
had been perforated, or the pin can be pushed
through at the end of the "scratch” and run
around it, tearing it at once. This is, y all
odds, the quickest process I have ever heard
of, and requires no outfit but :1. large shawl
pin, one of which I keep near 1110 always.—
