D) ~ [ —= PLACKS IN QUEENSLAND Bullets and Flery kum Fast Driving Them off the Harth -Happy Lives They Led Before the White Man Came Among Them, Pall Mall Gazetts Of all the races to whom the con- tact of cwvilization has been fatal, there is none more swiftly or surely dying out than the Queensland black fellow. ‘‘Dispersed” by the native police, poisoned by fiery colonial rum, and —if all stories bo true —more than occasionally by other potent means, shot down in new country by every white man who sces them, until the survivors arc glad of peace at any price, it is no matter or wonder that the strongest tribe is soon reduced to a tithe of its former numbers, And yet, before the whites came among them, their lifo was not an unhappy one, especially in the coast distriots, whore game 18 more plentiful than inland, and where they seldom know a day's hun, Kach tribe had its own reognized head, who ruled hy virtus of his superior fighting qu litics, but whoso control over the rest was but slight. Kach tribe had also i own district, out of which they soldom ventured, cxcept in time of war, or when attempting to carry of a damsel from a neighboring camo. Each small collection of families had their own totem or crest, and scru- pulously abstained from killing or eating the animal whose name they bore. Their moral character would then have compared not unfavorably with that of more civilized nations, Their marriage laws were very strict, and no intermarringe was permitted between members of the same family. They were polygamous, but adultery was almost unknown and surely pun- ished by death. Homest to each other, piltering was not one of their vices, and each tribe was almost a small commune, Living in a land of plenty, a very slight exertion was enough to insure them and their fami- lies an abundance of food. Kangaroo and wallaby, opossum and bandicoot, turkeys and wild fowl are all plentiful and easily got at, and when yams and the large potato-like roots of the wa- ter-lily are added to the list it will be seen tf;nt their diet was by no means to be despied. Did they wish for a change they had only to take to their canoes to be sure of an abundant sup- ply of fish. Their nets, made by the girls by hand out of a species of hibis- cus, were of immense size and very strong, and were generally common roperty to three or four fan.ilies heir canoes, made of bark and sewed together with thread made of hibis- cus bark, are light, easily managed, and wonderfully buoyant, though an inexperienced white man on stepping into one will probably take a header into the water on the opposite side. Their weapons and stone tomahawks, spears of various patterns, some of them barbed with great ingenuity, boomerangs —semi-circular pieces of wood pared so that their rotary mo- tion is that of a screw —which they can throw with great force and accu- rate aim for 80 or 90 yards, and nul- las -short clubs with a knobbed head —which they use both for throwing and hand-to-hand fighting. A heavy two-handed wooded sword and a shield tomplete the list of their oftensivg and defensive weapons. The use of the bow and arrow is fortunately unknown to them, except in the extreme north- east of the colony, where they have a considerable dash of Malay blood, and are frequently visited by blacks from the south of New Guinea, which is only abont 90 miles distant, The only poison of which they have fourd out the use is the bark of a species of myrtle, which, being pounded up and then thrown into the water, sickens the fish and brings them to the sur- face, where they become an easy prey. Their knowledge of medicineis very slight, but then they are, or rather were, rarely_sick, %‘he bite of the scorpion or centipede they cure by sucking and chewing the spot that was bitten. The bite of a death adder or any deadly snake—ot which there are but two or three sorts—they do not attempt to cure, but quietl, ie down, and amid the howls of their relations await the death that speedily follows the bite, A severe flesh wound they Fluur up with mud and keep moist or & few days, and cure in this man- ner some frightful-looking wounds. A broken bone they set to the best of their ability, and the result is usually & crooked or shortened limb, Moeasles they cure (1) by getting intoa water-hole and sitting Jwra with their heads out until they recover, as they very rarely do from this to them ter- rible scourge. As for clothing, they content themselves with the costume of our first parents in their days of in- noc:nce, though ocoasionally on grand occasions the young gins wear a plaited loin-cloth. During the short Queenland Winter they use pos- sum rugs, which they make very neatly. Their houses consist of throe or four sheets of bark put up in asemi- circle on the windy side of a small fire, round which they lie. Theiwr only time of hardship is during the wet seagon, When sometimes it rains in- cessantly for a fortnight, and they have some difficulty in getting about after the game, and cannot fish in the flooded creeks. Their life, before the whites came was as happy an animal existonce as could be imagined. Plenty to eat and drink and little else to do, a genial climate, and few ene- mies, what more could any savage de- sire! OF a future state of existence they had not the faintest idea. They laws; but they knew that if they broke them a blow on the head from anulla ora spear through the body would be the result, so they wisel abstained, Superstitious, like all ignorant races, they had a sort of idea of some evil power, who sent snakes and crocodiles and similar troubles, but they never venthltu I.I:a, length of ing to itiate him by prayer or zrifiu. pao:;%, their modes of exe- cution is curious, When the death of & member of the tribe has been de- termined on by the elders, the unsus ting victim is made inseneible by a low on the head, and his kiduney fat is taken out through a small slit made between the ribs He wakes with probably a headache and certainly a sore side, but recovers sufficiently to about for two or three days, when g: dies vomiting incessantly. The blacks who are not in the secret are told, and believe, that a snake made the cut and got into the body, and so cal death; and as the wretched man is d, the old blacks who alone are allowed get rid of their enemies in this fashion pretend to see the snake coming out of his mouth, For- morly they used to cremate their dead with considrable ceremony, but now they bury like whites. That they wero at one time cannibals there is no reason to doubt; and in theolder days, when white men were not unfrequent- ly surprised and killed, their cooked and half-eaten remains were repeated ly found in the blacks’ camp by the avenging native police. Of cultiva tion they are guiltless; they get their food with little trouble, so have no inducement to work. Now that they are-half-civilized, their old customs and laws are nearly forgotten: their marriage laws are no longer kept as of yore, and the few survivors are allow ed to follow their inclinations regard- less of relationship. Half-«castes are by no means uncotn mon, and some settlers have one or more gins constantly about their sta- tions. The boys are often forcibly taken away by settlers from a distance who want a slave, to whom they will have to pay no wages, If they try to oscae they aro taught by corporal punishment that they are no longer fros. Civil righte they have none, and thoush oceasionally a settler has buen tried for shooting an absconding or offending black boy, no jury has thought fit in_ Queensland to find a white man guilty of murder for killing a ‘“nigger.” Tn the bush social ostra- dism would bé the certain result of any attempt by a white man to defend by law a black boy from his owner's brutality, Escape is not easy for them as they are usually brought from a distance, and the blacks of the neighborhood would either give the absconder up for a fow sticks of to- bacco or resort to a more, forcible method of putting out of the way one who might bring on them the dreaded native police, and who, not under- standing their dialect, is looked upon as an alien. That civilization has been to them anything but a curse it would be hypocracy to deny. Not al- lowed to wander over their old hunt- ing grounds, they are compelled to loaf about the towns and stations, doing odd jobs for any one who wants them, and seldom recovering from the diseases which are a present from their more enlightened white breth- ren. The colonial government still keeps up the fiction of paying for their country by giving each of them, on the queen’s birthday, a blanket worth b8 or 6s. The vices of the whites thay quickly 1mitate; their virtues they rareiy see and never copy. A few years hence and their land will know them no more; their utter de- struction is only a question of time, But unless forcible dispossession be justice, unless murder and slavery be the outcome of colonization, unless humanity bo a fraud and a mockery, and breech-loaders the nineteenth century missionaries —unless, in short, might be right, Queenslanders ought to blush at the result of this boasted Christian civilization.

A Jilted Lover Finds His Former Sweetheart in a Lace-Curtained Cigar Store. Loulsville Courler-Journal. A very dramatic and unexpected scene was enacted, last Thursday night, in a house of ill-fame in this city. Some time ago one of the land- ladies of a house of this sort conceiv- od the idea of starting a small cigar store in front of her house, and thus give tho place the appearance to the outside world of being respectable, and also more effectually to lure visi- tors into it. The idea was successful- ly carried out, and other women of like charaster took up the idea, until a number of these stores were started, and it was in one of these, situated on Jefferson street, that the scene was enacted. About a year ago a young man came to this city from one of the countiss bordering on the Kentucky river, and entered into the practice of his profession here, He came to the clty because there was more of a field for labor before him and more materi- al with which to build up his fortune, but notwithstanding all this he felt a pang of regret in leaving his countr; home, becauge, as is usual in such cases, there was a girl in the case. On a large farm adjoining the little town in whichhe residedlived a very bright, handsome, and intelligent young lady, the daughter of a wealthy farmer, and conceded to bo one of the belles of the county. The young man became ac- quainted with her, and, as others had done before him, fell a victim to her charms, and became a worshiper be- fore the shrine of her beauty. The first visit he paid her was soon fol- lowed by a second, until he became a regular or at her father's house, and observers began to comment on the advantages of the match and their prospects, The time finally came when the young man was to leave his home for the city, and, after many af- foctionate partings from his sweet- heart and a promise obtained from her to be true to him, he left, with the understanding *hat a regular corre- spondence would be kept up. This promise was adhered to until about six months ago, when, for some rea- son or other, she failed to answer one of his letters, Thinking that it might have been mislaid in the mails, he wrote again, and this lotter was an- swered in person by the young lady's father, who unfolded to him the terri- ble tale that his daughter had run away from home about a week prev- ious, in company with another man, and no intelligence could be received of her whereabouts The shock was an awful one, and the young man was almost prostrated, but recovered and joined in the search of the father for the faithless daughter and sweetheart, They succeeded In tracing her to St. Louis, where they lost all trace of her, and gradually she began to slip from him memory, and the story of his first love was almost forgotten when it was brought back to him with startling foreo on last Thursday night. About 8 o'clock two young men, one of whom was the man spoken of above, were walking along Jefferson street, when they came in front of one of these cigar-stores, A proposition was made OMAHA DALLY B that they go 12 and get a cigag, which was acceded to, and they entered the store, None of the women happened to be in the store at the time, and the young man stepped to the door lead ing back into the sitting-room and opened it. The movement probably cost him more pain than any other event in life. Seated at one end ot the room directly opposite the door was a handsome young woman, apparentiy about 20 years old, with black hair, large brown oyes, and an oxcoedingly pretty face the door opened she partially ro - hor seat to greet the visitor hen her eyes fell on the ’ young man standing in th With a startied cry of surprise she turned to loave the room, but the movementand the cry attracted his attention, and he ran across the room, and catching her by the arm, pulled her face around to tho light and looked at her. The one look satisfied him, and, releasing her arm, he stood for fully a minute as if dazed, and then walked out of the room without saying a word. He had recognized in the features the ome whom he had loved and who had be trayed him. I'he young man has written to the virl's father, informing him of her whet 1ts, and, if she does not be come ghtened and leave, another scene will no doubt occur. Kidnoy Compl R ut Cared. N.

R AMERICAN CARS IN EUROPE. Their Popularity Increasing in Eng- land and on the Continent. N. Y. Times. The use of Awerican drawing-room and sleeping cars 1 England and oth- er parts of Europe is extending, and there is every reason to believe that they will be geuerally adopted by the railways on the other side. Mr. George M. Pullman,ot Chicago, the president of the Pullman Palace Car Company, will sail for Burope to-muirow in the Arizona. Atv the Windsor Hotel, where ho was stopping, he said last evening that orican Cars were stoadily growiog mn favor in Kngland and elsewhere, and he thought they would create a complete revolution in travel in Kurope. Fifty Pullman cars representing $760,000 1 value, were at present running on foreign roads, ‘I'he English people were slow to adopt new things, but since Pull- man cars were put on the Midland Railway in 1873, au the solicitation of the General Manager, whocame to this country and made u trip to Cali- fornia in one of them, there has been an increasing demand for them. They were now running on the Mid- land, the Great Northern, the North British, the London, Brighton and South Coast, and on the Kast India mail route beiween Bologne and Brin- disi. Cars were being built for the Western Ruwilway in France, which would be the fiist iutroduced in that country. ‘Uhe cars were constructed at the shops in Deoroit, Mich., ship- ped in sectious, and put together at the company’s shops in Derby, En- gland. A cable dispatch was received yesterday proposing contracts for cars to run on leading roads in Italy. Mr. Pullman said he should consider the proposition when he arrived n England. The first purely American train in Europe was started a short time ago. It is known as the Pullman limited express, and consists entirely of Pull- man cars. It makes four trips a day between London and Brighton, on the London, Brighton and South Coast Railway, and is well patronized. The charges are about the same in England as they are in this country. In other trains than the Pullman limited express the Pullman cars are coupled with the regular carriages. A special feature of the Pullman train is its completeness, and in this re- spect it excels the fast train composed of Pullman cars between New )ork and Washington. It is supplied with a restaurant, news-stand, smoking- room, and other conveniences. A lit- tle competition, if it will bear the term, has sprung up ana owes its ori- in to American enterprise The iomlon and Northwestern Railway has made some changes in its regular carriages 80 a8 to provide sleeping ac- comodations, which are deficient in many respects and do not compare with the elegance and comfort afford- ed by American cars. On the Conti- nent the Belgium Uum\xuny. a8 it is known, is running a number of sleep ing cars, The sloeping arrangements are made to conform to the standard carriages used on the continental rail- ways, and they are lacking in many important details, The demand for Puillman cars in Europe Mr, Pullman said had already reached large proportions and was continually increasing. The Ameri- can plan of drawing-room and sleeping cars afforded comforts that the pre- vailing style of carringes never could be made to afford, and people were realizing it. The better class of trav- elors patronized the Pullman cars, and there was everything to indicate that any prejudices agamst these that might have existed had been removed. Mr, Pullman will join his family in Paris and return during the first week ‘in April. A Baptist Minister’s Experience.
