She sits with a native council and administers all the courts, passing judgment on savage-look-. ing chiefs and warriors, whose forbears, less than 100 years ago, were feared and dreaded as head" hunter.

Now they are a peaceable race, and the misdeeds for which they are hauled to court are not serious mostly petty thievery and fighting
