A woman's head comes next, because women are always escorted, and the escort must be dispatched be- fore the lady can be decapitated. As for a man's head, anybody can getia man’'s head in Borneo if he watches his chance. Knowing all this, Rajah ‘Brook makes use of this popular fad. If the tribes | in one part of his kingdom get unruly | he sends for the chief of some other tribe and gives permission for him and | nis followers to make war on the mal- ‘contents and take all the heads they | can until further notice. This serves to reduce the Dyak population and acts as a vent for the murderous mania of the people. When the rebels have had | | enough—which is usually soon, for ff| | one tribe is unable to make them be good Brook turns loose a few others; the stricken chief appeals to the rajah, who orders the collectors home and ordains another closed season for hu- man heads. Rajah Brook has a navy consisting of five vessels. Four of them are used | also for commercial purposes. The | flagship is the Rajah's yacht, one of the fastest, says Mr. Hoover, in the world. Rajah Brook married an English woman, and has one son, who béars the title of Rajah Mudah, and who will succeed to the 58000 square miles of Borneo when his father passes away. ABSOLUTE MONARCH. In epite of his years, says Hoover, Rajah Brook is very active. He is an untiring pedestrian and keeps in close touch with everything that goes on within the limits of his kingdom. Hé has about thirty young Englishmen lo- cated in different parts of it, and while each lieutenant 18 answerable to him, each is absolute in his own district in all ordinary administrative affairs. The gold mines are operated by a British concern, which works under concessions granted by Rajah Brook. ‘With his Dutch and British neighbors the Rajah has little to do, but majntains friendly relations. Foreign powers are represented in the kingdom by the Duteh consul. The rajah has no rep- regentation abroad. “He is the most absolute monarch in the world,” concluded Mr. Hoover, “and hie land is wonderfully rich. He lent us $20,000 to help our cojeny, not be- cause he cares for misslonaries, but because he wants people in his king- dom who will dewvelop its résources, which ase uniimitel” | | | { | | { | e el NOTICE IS HEREBY GIVEN To all policy-holders of the North British and Mercantile Insurance Company of London and Edinburgh who sustained loss or damage by the catastrophe which occurred in San Francisco on or about the 18th day of April, 1906, that the time expressed in any ot the policies wherein the assured is required to render a sworn statement or proofs or loss is hereby extended until and including the 18th day of August, A.D. 1906.
