MAGIC AND RELIGION. their Parttn Dae to tke Adfssct ! Civilisation. In west Africa the belief In a new birth without loss of Identity la proved by the fact that when a baby arrives la a family It is shown a selection of mall articles belonging to deceased members, and the thing which the child catches hold of identifies him as "Unci John" or "Cousin Emma," and so forth. 6o far as this belief prevails it 1a held by some that garments once worn or other objects which have been In Intlmtta contact with a human be ing are penetrated by his personality and remain, as It were, united with hten for good or -ill. In neatly all stages of civilisation now to be found In the world what we call supernatural beings were concern ed with the Initiation of the magician. The achhua between magic and reli gion was a later development of civ ilization. When It ccurred, as the history of heresy in Europe and the witch trial teach. It was rather magic In Its antisocial aspect than in Itself, which was reprobated and punished. It is strange In this connection to no tice that the magician was only con demned when be departed from estab lished custom and established beliefs which Involved a severance from the community and an imputation of anti social ends. Practices essentially mag ical might be incorporated in religious rites and exercised for what was be lieved to be the general good. In such a case they have continued to be ex ercised with general assent In the high est forme of religion. London Hos pital. ODD MARRIAGE CUSTOM. CONQUERING HEROES Porchaa mm Wdlnar Certiflatea am the Island of Jersey. Among Jerseymen proper that Is to ay, among the descendants of the orig inal inhabitants of the island and not the English or French residents there a very curious and interesting old mar riage custom exists. Upon the completion of the ceremony and, if In strict accordance with tradi tion, before the happy couple take up residence in their new abode the stone slab at the top of the porch containing the front door la Inscribed with the in itials of the bridegroom, those of the bride, the date of the ceremony and two hearts lntwined, the latter being an emblem of their Intermingled love and the whole forming a most lasting and public certificate of marriage. Occasionally, however, a little diffi culty arises. The bride may meet with an early death, and in the course of time the widower may desire to re enter the holy state of matrimony. Having fulfilled his desire, it appears rather puzzling to know what to do about the inscription. In some cases, therefore, the initials and date of the first wedding have been erased and those of the subse quent ceremony substituted, while in others the Initials of the second wife and the date have been added below the first, a second pair of lntwined hearts being thought unnecessary. The letters are usually from six to nine Inches in height, so that they may be easily read across the road. London Mall. Tletlma f a False Prophet. Just before the opening of the Kaffir rebellion in South Africa, about the middle of the last century, the sooth sayers bade the tribes kill their cattle and destroy their crops of grain. The spirits of their ancestors were to arise and help them to exterminate every white man In the country. The advice was solemnly accepted. When the day of the great uprising arrived many of the rebels were already starving. But there came no ghostly herds of cattle out of the earth, no crops not sown with hands Grim, terrible famine swept over the lend, and in the months which followed, although the authori ties did everything In their power to mitigate its horrors, 30,000 victims of a false prophet starved to death. IDOLS OF RUSHVILLE They Will Be Tendered Great est Reception in History Of City Tonight. THREE MEETINGS PLANNED. WATSON AND HALL WILL SPEAK AT ALL THE ENTIRE SIXTH DISTRICT IS INVITED TO PAR TICIPATE IN THEM. Rushville, Ind., April 4. Rome nev er extended more generous welcome to her returning heroes, than that which is to be accorded James E. Wat son and Frank J. Hall in this city this evening. Rushville citizens have come forward to pay honor to these political representatives of the two leading parties of the state and have loosened their purse strings. When calls were made for subscriptions there was generous response anl it was only a short time until enough money had been raised to provida for a more lavish reception than had been planned for originally. The entire Sixth congressional district is invit ed to be the guest of Rushville tonight and all will find accommodations. Rushville will be stirred by a throng that will eclipse in size any that ever gathered here. The three receptions will be held at different times, so as to accommodate the crowds better.

Vanderbilt Told Her Story of Stormy Life. THE COURT IS SILENT. Ventilation. Have we ever stopped to think how our ancestors two or three generations back lived and flourished with little or no ventilation In tbelr sleeping apart ments? The night air used to be con sidered a very dreadful menace to health and a sure inducer of colds. Bedrooms were kept closely shut, and yet our ancestors, many of them, were hardier than we and lived to good old ages. Animals burrow In their holes at night, breatlflng the same air over and over agaln, while birds and fowls tuck their heads under their wings. Of course ventilation is absolutely neces sary for proper comfort, cleanliness and health, but people have lived on little or none of It for hundreds and thousands of years. New York, April 4. -Mrs. Alfred Gwynne Vanderbilt has sailed the sea of matrimony and yesterday severed the last cable that bound her by tell ing the stormy events of her domestic life to David McClure, referee. Just what Mrs. Vanderbilt said, but nine- persons know. They are not talking for publication the nine. "Sensational reports and rumors have bten published, and no doubt will be continued," said Referee McClure "It's a case of guess on the part of the public, for I will not talk, nor will any one person on this case." All this being true, to a certain. ex tent, the public has nothing to do but take the word of persons in a position to know what Mrs. Vanderbilt did say as to why she seeks a divorce from her husband. The case will probably not last very long, for Referee McClure has an air of Iriskness about him that insures a speedy ending. Second Presbyterian North Nine teenth street. Robert H. Dunaway, pastor.
