CAPARRA.


En- ell tempo Ell que Johan Ponce
gobernaba la isla de Sanct Johan, dice
Fernandez de 0siedo, hizo el prime
ro pueblo que los cripstianos tuvieron
en- aquella isla 4 la wanda del Norte,
& p1sole nombre Caparra. En- el
cual pueblo hizo una casa de tapias,
{ andando el tempo hizo otra de
piedra; porque en- la verdad, era
hombre inclinado 4 poblar y edi6car.
Mas este pueblo, por la indisposicion
del assiento, file malsano etrabajoso,
porque estaba entire montes E ciena-
gas, e las aguas eran acijosas e no Sc
criaban los ninos. Antes en- dexan-
do la leche, adolescian Sc tornaban
de la color del acije, y hasta la muer-
te siempre yban de nal en- peor, E
toda Ii genie de los cripstianos an
dababan descoloridos v enfermos.
Estaba este pueblo una legua de la
mar, el quail intervalo era todo de
cienagas { muy trabajoso de trael
los bastimentos 4 la villa, el funda-
mento de la quail 8 su principle fue
el ano de 1909. Y estuvo aquella
rep1blica 8 villa en- pie doce amos
POGO mas s menos, hasta que des-
pues SO mud6 adonde al presente es-
ta, que es una yilleta puesta en- la
mesma bahia donde los navios solian
descargar; peor donde Sc mud6 y esta
agora el pueblo es muy sano, aunque
en- la verdad las cosas necesarias son
Embellishments 8 con mucho traba-
jo avidas, asst como buena aqua, 6

para 'cobrir las casas f; porque los

mercaderlas, costaban mas de ser

From the Detroit Free Press, Sept. -.
In the hip pocket ofan old vae rant, pulled
in by the police the other night, was
memorandum book full of his own writing
with pencil, and some Of his philosophy is
good enough to be preserved His first
paragraph reads:
drinking bad whisky because itIis offered
free is like getting in the way Of bullets
purcha ed Ivy an ener ""
A second reads
Honesty ia the best policy, but some
folks are satisfied with second best. 1t is
hard to be honest on an empty stomach"
A third reads:
"a dry plank under rainproof shed is
better than feather bed in Jail, and one
isn't annoyed by the ijailer bringing in a
square breakfast"
A fourth says:
!, !" |" Paw as You go. If you haven't any.
The fire still RACES, particui.lHisy' His'' IL ere

dWc-shheh Eve shShP,ut 70 pa. the fire difficult Doubt
the winter winds blow cold and drear we
vags should pity the poor fellows in India
who are having red hot weather"
A sixth is recorded -
"Politcness costs nothing, but it is not ex-
pected that you will wake man up at mid
night to ask permission 10 go through his
hen house 1t is more courteous to let him
enjoy his needed repose."
The seventh and last was noted down as
| follows
"When you pick up an apple core DO not
find fault because it is not the apple itself,
but be satisfied with the grade Of decent
DO not be ashamed of your occupation
We cannot all be lords, nor can we all be
vagrants. AS cannot be lord l should
not lament at being vagrant. Be truthful
and ouspoken. That is, tell 'em you are a
Chicago fire sufferer. Keep season able

first. BE hopeful, cheerful and good na,ured
