CITY , No"b. , May 18.
[ Spciial to THE BEU. ] The arrest of
thOi 'ld colored man , Ben Knight , a few
days ago , for committing a murderous
assiuill on a prominent citizen , has
brou ltto light an interesting state of
affaifyuunong some of the colored people
ple ofj.ih.is city who regard Knight in
the lignt of a wizard or hoodoo. Many
of them look upon the old man with
fear and awe , and believe him capable
of accomplishing many wonderful and
unnatural things. Ho claims those un
earthly powers and pretends to exorcise
them. Colored superstition credits him
with power to destroy lifo by a few
MVSTKUIOUS ACTIONS.
consisting mostly of boiling herbs
and Baying maglo words. Knight
has for ton years lived in
a hovel , the inside of which has never
boon seen by any other person , and ho
guards it with a jealous care. Colored
people givu bib habitation a wide berth ,
nud would just as soon think of dying
a horrible death as to enter his un
canny hut.
Ono of his great feats , accredited by
the colored people and claimed by
himself , is his ability to converse with
nnd understand the language of ani
mals. The old man could bo soon sit
ting by the side of an old dog or cut.and
talking with them for hours at n tuna ,
and occasionally laughing at a funny
reply from his companion. Ho would
oven translate
HOUSK AND JOO LAXOUAOE
sometimes for the benefit of some white
friend in whom ho had confidence. His
recent troublogrew out of this torso bilk.
Ho approached a horse belonging to
another man and opened a conversation
with tlio antnml , and the latter ex
pressed a wish to go with Knight ,
whom ho wanted to adopt as a "daddy , "
according to Knight's translation.
When the latter tried to coax the horbO
along the owner objected and a mur
derous assault was the result.
A Vl'.MAI.K COMPANION.
It is said of Knight that some twenty
years ago ho took it into his head to got
a wife , or rather a female companion ,
and his methods of bringing it about
conllrnied.tho superstitious belief in his
uncanny arts. He shut himself up in
his house and burned roots and boiled
herbs and became mysterious. The
nshes of the former ho scattered to the
south winds and bathed himself iu the
liquid of the latter , while at night ho
chanted unearthly songs. After the
seventh day there arrived at his hut ft
strange young colored woman , footsore
nnd tlrod , having traveled
all thu' way from bomo
southern pointin answer to Ills
call , and ho took her as his wife. Thov
lived together a number of yoara and
accumulated some property , when she
bu < ldeny | died , Knight still claims
that she was

very short time tlio latter had lost everything -

boniething to eat. Ho , however , got in

one night and carted it away to another
part of town. About the same time
there was an alarming increase in the
death rate among the colored people ,
and Knight's dark influence was
blamed' * for all of it. Several
colored citizens oven went BO far as to
consult a justice as to the advisability
of having

Several years ago , at a colored festi

his power is broken.
Although Knightcan neither road nor

A nankpf's Pcrploxitlo * .
It's easy enough to get money into a
bank and still easier to get it out , at
leiiht it Heeii'H so , if one has only the
capital with which to try the experi
ment. There arc very few , however ,
who realize the annoyances which are
caused the clerks behind the counter ,
who necessarily take pirt : in this opera
tion. These annoyances arise from the
great variety of methods and the fre
quent ignoring of any metnoil.
"Bothered ? " romnrkcd ono of the
Council Bluffs cashiers , ' 'you ought to
bo in my place a little while to got a
really true Idea of the situation in this
city. "
The scribe suggested that such a
change of occupations would bo agree
able at least to the Interviewer , but the
interviewed quickly chilled all nego
tiations of this sort and proceeded :
"You would be .surprised to see how
few men know how to deposit money , or
to draw a check. I've been thinking of
Innintr a little pamphlet printed giv
ing information for those doing busi
ness with banks. I don't know as it
would do any good , but something
ought to bo done to onlightun the dear
public. For instance , there is ono cus
tom quite prevalent hero In the Bluffs ,
which is not allowable in any city
that is. overdrafts. Why , our custom
ers do not MJQIII to think but what it is
all right any time to check out more
than Ofay' hnvo in the bank. They
overdraw to suit their own convenience ,
and seem to think it is all right if they
make a deposit and bring their account
into sha'po ftitliln the next two or three
days after they thus give a check. Now ,
in the oast.rt don't make any dilToronco
how gooU' ' ifmnn may bo , if ho over
draws hls"account , his chock is thrown
out. Sometimes our overdrafts amount
to two orv tlfreo thousand dollars , and
all in HAloTimounts , "
"Whv > clont ' | you adopt the methods of
other cUi'eir'iuid throw the chocks out
heroV" ' ?
"I thinkMvo shall adopt that rule , but
the busincs men hero have been al
lowed to do'hs ' they please so long that
it is a little risky. I suppose they would
got hot and take > their business to homo
other bank. If any of our customers
want to overdraw they should come to
the bank and make a loan , and give
their noto. It's hard work to get thorn
into any Buch businoss-liko way of doing
though , "
"What else can a banker find to grumble -
blo about ? "
"There's plenty. It'sstrango how doM -
] M > sitors tumble tholrmonoy Intoa bank.
They often wait until they reach the
bank before fixing their deposit. They
then stand at one of the counters and
begin emptying their pockets , making
out a ticket while their money and
chocks lie around whore anyone could
grab them , and where everyone can see
just what they are doing. Customers
should make up their deposits before
they leave their olllce , and thus save all
this confusion. Then the tables and
counters would bo free for the use of
transients. They were intended for
such uso.and not for regular depositors
to occupy by the half hour doing
what they ought to have done in their
ollicos before they come to the bank.
Then there are so many annoying ways
f making a deposit. Somo'shovo in
the silvei-j bills , chocks and all in a
heap , leaving the teller to sort it out as
best ho can. Why. there are .some who
bring in nickles , dimes , silver dollars
and all in a great pile. Of course they
ought to have the nickle , or dimes ,
rolled into packages marked with the
amount ana the name of the depositor.
Then there is no need of delay on the
part of the toller. Ho can afterwards
correct any errors there may bo in any
of these packages. Sometimes deposi
tors just pass in their money and chocks
and have the teller inakco'ut the ticket
and do the work they ought to have
done themselves , and if ho objects thev
got hot right oil' . "
The manner of drawing chocks seems
to bather the Blulfs bankers a good deal
also. There is probably no city of its
size Avhero so many peculiarities of
methods are shown. It is nothing un
common to see checks given for amounts
oven loss than a dollar. Often these
checks are so carelessly drawn that any
crook could easily raise the amount , anil
several Instances hayo occurred hero
whore such crookedness has boon in-
dulged'fn. Some oven use a load pen
cil in drawing chocks , and often tlio
endorsement is made with a load pencil.
"Ono of the peculiar bits of careless
ness among the business men of the
Blufl's , " remarked ono of the more care
ful ones , "is the way in which chocks
pass from ono to another without being
endorsed by the one who handles It.
Ono case recently came to light which
indicates clearly the result of such
carelessness. In ono of the largest
offices in the Blull's several checks had
boon properly made out and signed.
Instead of being duly delivered to the
parties to whoso order they were made
they fell into the hands of a dishonest
follow , who iorgcd the names on the
back of tlio ehecfsand got them cashed
nt stores whore ho made purchases.
Two of these checks passed through
several hands , without being any
further endorsed , ana in time were deposited -
posited , and nt last reached the mana
ger who had drawn the checks. lie
discovered the forgeries of the endorse
ment , and then a hunt began. It was
very dillloult to trace back the course
of these two checks. Of course the per
sons who deposited thorn in the bank
were found , for tlioir endorsement was
required by the bank , but they could
not remember from whom they recaivod
those checks , and there was no endorse
ment to indicate. They had to pay the
ohooks , and learned a lesson. No ono
should receive a cheek without having
the person who prdsonts it endorse it ,
no matter how many olhor endorse
ments there may bo on the cheek. "
Ono of the tellers In speaking of en
dorsements , remarked ; "I never saw a
city where there was such a diversity
of endorsements on chocks. Some en
dorse across one end , others the ether
end of the check. Some endorse in the
middle , and some lengthwlsa. They
endorse in all sorts of ways , and often
when there are several endorsements
it takes several minutes to puzzle them
out. They make a queer combination.
It seems as if faomo folks oven tried to
see how they could endorse a chock BO
as to make it as awkward as possible for
the tellers. Of course , the proper way
to endorse a check Is so that when it is
turned ever the endorsement appears at
the end nearest the loft hand. Then
the next ondorument should follow this

result of their fear of offending custo
mers , there has grown up a careless ,
bhiftiess manner of doing business in
many details. The hank clerks are
called upon to do a great many little
duties which the customers ought to
perform , and to accommodate them
selves to a great many little annoyances
which might as well bo done away
with.
/.Thoughtlessness and _ competition have
aided in maintaining numerous such
littla ways of carelessness on the part of
even good business men. The growth
of the city and consequent increase of

A BLOOD-SUCKING TREE.
Tilko n Gigantic Tnrnntnla anil Fcoda
on nirds.
Mr. John II. Botlermau , an American
and whilom resident of Chihuahua ,
Mexico , writes as follows to the St.
Louis Globe-Democrat about a singular
discovery which ho recently made :
I have taken much interest in the
study of botany during my sojourn in
this country , the flora of which presents
ono of the richest Holds for the scien
tist in the world , and have wandered
some distance from town on several oc
casions in my search for specimens.
On ono of these expeditions I noticed
a dark object on ono of the outlying
spurs of she Siorrc Madre mountains ,
which object oxcitea my curiosity so
much that I examined it carefully
through my field-glass. This revealed
that the object was a tree or shrub of
such nn unusual appearance that I re
solved to visit the spot.
1 rode to the mountain , the sides of
which sloped Hulllciontly for mo to imiko
my way on horseback to within a few
rodb of the summit. But hero I was
stopped by an abrupt rise BO stoop that ,
I doBpuirod of reaching it even on foot.
I went around it several times seek
ing for some way to climb up , but the
jugged , buotling rocks afforded not the
slightest foothold. On the top of this
knob stands the tree I had seen.
From the spot on which I now stood I
could sco that it somewhat resembled in
form the weeping willow , but the long ,
drooping whip-like limbs were ol a dark
and apparently slimy appearance , and
seemed possessed of a horrible lifu-liko
power of coiling and uncoiling. Occa
sionally the whole tree would seem a
writhing , squirming muss.
My dcsiro to investigate this strange
vegetable product in ore used on ouch'of
the many expeditions I made to the
spot , and ut last I saw a sight ono ( lay
which made mo believe I had certainly
discovered an uiihoard-of tiling.
A bird , which I had watched circling
about for some time , finally settled on
the top of the tree , whim the branches
began to awaken , as it were , and curl
upward.
They twined and twisted like snakes
about thabird , which began to scream ,
and drew it down in their fearful em
brace until 1 lost sight of it.
Iforror stricken , 1 stozod the nearest
rock in an attempt to climb the knob.
J had BO often tried in vain to do this
that I was not surprised wnen I fell
back , but the rock was loosened and full
also.
It narrowly missed mo , but I sprang
up unhurt , and saw that the fallen rock
had left a considerable cavity. I put
my face to it and looked In.
Something like a cavern , the floor of
which had an upward tendency , met my
sight , and I felt a current of fresh air
blowing on mo , with a dry earthy smell.
Evidently there was another opening
somewhere , undoubtedly at the summit.
Using my trowel , which I always car
ried on my botanizing expeditions , I
enlarged the hole , and then pushed my
way up through the passage.
When I had nearly reached the top I
looked out cautiously to see if I should.
emerge within reach of that diabolical
troo. But 1 found it nowhere near the
aperture , so I sprung out.
I was just in time to sec the flattened.
carcass of the bird drop to the ground ,
which was covered with bones uqd.
feathers. I approached as closely as.
dared and examined the true.
It was low in sixo , not more than
twenty feet high , but covering- grout
aroa. Its trunk was of prodigious thick
ness , knotted and scaly.
From the top of this trunk , a few fpqt
from the ground , its slimy brunojjqp
curved upward and downward , nearly
touching the ground with their tapering -
ing tips.
Ifs appcaranco was thai , of a glgantlo
tarantula awaiting its prey ,
On my venturing to lightly touch ono
of the limbs , it closed upon my hand
with such force that when I toro it
loose the skin came with it. I de
scended then and closing the pueaago
returned. I went back next day carry
ing half a do/on chickens with which to
Iced the tree.
The moment I tossed in the fowls n
violent agitation shook ita branchus ,
which swayed to and fro with a Mlnuoutj ,
snaky motion.
After devouring the fowls , thoau
branches fully gorged , drooped to thojr
former position , and , the tree giving no
sign of animation , I dared approach it
and take the limbs In my hand.
They were covered with suckers , re
sembling the tentacles of an octopus.
Thu blood of the fowls had boon ab
sorbed by these suckers , leaving
crimson stains on the dark surface.
There was no foil ago , of courseof any
kind. Without speaking of my din-
covory to any ono about , 1 wrote an ac
count of it to the world-famous botanist ,
Prof. Wordonhaupt , of the university
of Heidelberg.
His reply states that my tree is tha
Arbor Dlaboli , only two specimens of
which have ever boon known one on u
peak of the Himalayas and the other on
the island of Sumatra. Mine is tha
third.
Prof. Wordonhaupt says that the
Arbor Dlaboli and the plant known aa
Venus lly-trap are the. only known
specimens , growing on land , of these
forms of lifo which partake of the na
ture of both the animal and the vege
table kingdoms , although there are in
stances too numerous to mention found
of this class in the sea.
The Portugese man-of-war may bu
mentioned , however , as ono , aim tlio
Hpongo as the best known specimen o !
tills class.
