A LAND OF MURDERS.
Papua, a Cold Blooded Country* Where
Lift l« Held Cheap.
r« puu has long Wen known as a
bloody land. It Is a bloody land attlL
But tbe blood of white men Is rarely
let, and tbe wanton slaughter of na
llves, Ibe one by the other—at least
in those fast widening regions whlcto
are within the sphere of the law—la
fast diminishing. All this being so In
ono year, nevertheless, when there
were 215 prisoners committed for trial,
IIS of them were charged with murder,
nine with manslaughter and live with
attempted murder. -• ~
To the civilized mind the motives to
murder, shocking enough, to be sure,
nor wanting an aspect of grewsome
humor, are upon occasion Incredible
As they aro matters of record, how
ever, disclosed on painstaking Investi
gation, tbey aro to be uccepted, not ac
irresponsible tales, such as wander
about the eastern seas, but as substan
tial facts, however singular and incom
prehensible they may appear. ;
It la a matter of court record, for ex-.j
ample, that certain natives of what Is
called the coast range, being upon trial
for the murder of two carriers, whose
throats they had cut, admitted the deed
without the least hesitation and sought
to justify the ghastly business upon
the ground that tbe carrier had appear
ed to be "cold and hungry"—dejected
fellows, far away from their village.
The prisoners bad uot eaten the car
riers. They had merely—with the most
considerate expedition—cut the throats
of the carriers, who were strangers, at
any rate, and therefore of no great con
sequence, and no Ingenuity of cross
questioning could elicit a motive ul
terior to the one so ingenuously ad
vanced—that the carriers, appearing to
be "cold and hungry," were. In the
opinion of the gentlemen who l>2d in
continently cut their throats, much bet
ter dead.
A similtir case of merciful extermina
tion concerned a young native employ
ed to shoot game for a white planter,
who encountered n sick man (Papuan)
on the road near a river and stran
gled him to death. Upon trial he ex
plained that the sick uian had created
annoyance and a considerable emb«F
rassment as well by Insistently re
questing to be carried across the rff wr
to the other side, whence hla way 1st/
forward to bis village.
"Quite so," said the presiding oficer,
"Why, then, didn't you CU77 hlM
across the river?"
"He was too heavy," replied tfce a*'
five. "It would have put me to a $feal
deal of trouble."
"Why did you kill him?"
"What else could I do? The man
was sick."
It was out of the question to ebdnre
the labor of carrying the sick man
across the river. It was equally bat of
the question to abandou the pitiable
object Therefore the bewildered fal
low bad strangled him—the roost oi>
vlous way out of a dilemma which
bade fair to distress bU feeliaga.—Har
