Cannibalism in the MarQuesas
Islands.

Mr.. Chase was witness to Il fearful
and revolving act of cannibalism prac-
ticed at the little harbor of Atawana
two years ago. A young AMI beautiful
girl had been captured and brought in
a canoe to Atawana. She belonged to
a tribe which was f~iercely hated by
her captors, and they determined 20
avenge themselves upon hef. She was
taken out into the centre of the village,
stripped naked and bound. Then with
wal clubs she was beaten, and fell as
if dead to the ground. But while life
yet fingered, a woman of Atawana
rushed up to the PROSTATE body, and,
with ferocious yell, dug her fingers
into the eyes of her victim. plucked
them out of their sockets, and ate them
in the presence of the Infatuated and
applauding multitude. Afterward,
while the body of the victim was yet
warm, she was disembowelled, and
her entrails taken out and d~evOured,
the cannibals fighting with each other
for their share. Her whole body was
then cut to pieces and divided up
among the cannibals present. While
indulging in this almost incredible
brutality, shouts of joyous vengeance
were heard on every side. The cannl-
balls fairly reveled in ~devouring nearly
every atom Of the body. They washed
down the flesh eaten with native IN
t~oXicating drinks, and after the car
mage was concluded a triumphant war
dance of vengeance followed.-San
Francisco Chronicle.
