WITCHCRAFT i, U0SI0.V. Superstition among negroes is found in the Xew Emiland States as well as the south. The Wash ington Herald gives nn account of the trial and sentciicingof ane gro ' henler in Poston forplaviuu on the credulity of member of his race, lie sold 'good luck elm rms.' A negro woman paid him $38 lor two of them. Among her pur chases was a typewriter's lubber eraser, of the kind sold in the ston s for ten cents. The ''heal er" also blessed the woman's home lor t he purpose of driving t he deyel away. F r 5 dollars he guaranteed to And emp'ox inenf, for her husband. The latter was told to walk from the South station to the Xorth station and he would rescue a job on the way. He took the promenade, but was not intei rupted by a chance togo to work. To cure a pain mi the side ot another applicant lor his aid the "healer" ordered the sick man to toss a dimeoverhishead, it is not stated whether or not the "healer" was standing behind and caught the money. For these and other fraudulent pro ceeebngs the neirro wns sentenced to a term of imprisonment. He should be content with his pun ishment and thankful that hdid not live in Masso chusetts a few generations ago, for then the pen-' alt.v would most probably have , been forfeit ure of his life by the halter route.

Hoodie lias much of the sunn which other loved airs lack, but not enough to keep burning the tires of pat riotism af'er having started them atiu.'le. "Pixie" is the best medium of expression o! patriotic fervor. It express -s. belief than theai all, the throbbings of patriotic pas sion, and to hear it, one re-ogni- zes tin. interpretation of those in- expre.ssihle emotions and stamp.-i ami cheers with delight. Thus does the Xew York World pay homage to the air which we all love: The chief of the division of music in the library ol Congress, who has compiled a book on A merican sonus, declares "Pixie" lo be the first in 'pn'riotic pop ability, and the statement will not be disputed ns regards New York and its suburban and sea shore environs. "In this city and at ail eastern water ng places "Pixie" is as popular as it is in theSouth.The plaving of the air at dinner or in a theatre or in any public usseiu Huge is the signal for an ent.hu siastieoutburstot.ipplau.se which is never accorded to other na tive airs. To what extent this sentiment lor "Dixie" is shared in the West and in other parts of the country north of the Mason and Dixon's line need not becon sidered. "Lincoln thought "Dixie" the best of American tunes and jo kingly remarked that he regard ed it as contraband ol war. Its word are puerile. What is there inspiring aiiout "siinuioii seel and sandv bottom?' Put there is a swing and 'go' to t he South ern song which enlivens a crowd, where the formal measures of 'A nieriea,' too infrequently plaed, or the saddening strains of 'Ma ryland, My Marylend,' fail of their effect in awakening enthusi asm. Much of the vogue of Dixie in Xew York mnst be attributed to the efforts of an active minor ity in popularizing the air. It isa legacy of the Lost Cause for which the Xorth is growing to have an affection."
