The best paving plot on any farm and the

it is frequently called, and quite appropri-

The two later, on entering the cabin

Luster. A low growl warned them OF
danger and re Prescott turned his gaze,
he saw the tiger crouching and in the

terrible animal bore him to the floor, he
drew his dagger and stabbed him again

with the slashing blows of Backstay Bob,

We now made critical examination
of the place. A number of human bones
strewed the floor and several articles of
wearing apparel, which seemed to indi-
cate that the place had been tenanted by
two human beings of opposite sexes and
had probably b. en- torn to pieces by the
famished tiger. The room was long and
low, extending the whole length Of the
vessel, and having at either extremity a
massive iron chain, terminating in a
heavy ring at one end, the other being
fastened by a strong staple to beam in
the yes ePs side.

Carefully removing the body Of the
captain to the little boat, we scuttled the

Live Goals are possibly the antidote to

the general effect Of all this strange diet
was beginning to have powerful influ-
enee upon the nerves Of some of the lady
spectators, who protested that they were
unable to witness further horrors. A
man now stepped forward, stripped to the
waist, with skin almost as fair as Eu-

preston Of fanatical insanity which
characterized some of his fraternity, but
was calm and somewhat commonplace.
The sheik reappeared armed with skew
er of larger dimensions than he had
thrust through the cheeks of the first vic
tins, to the end of which was attached a
heavy iron ball, and proposed to run it
through the mans throat from the front,
bringingit out at the nape of his neck.
At this there was general scream of
horror and dismay.
In vain did the sheik protest that the
operation would be absolutely painless,
and show us the indurated spots on the
opposite side of the mans neck through
which the instrument was in the habit of
passing, while the man himself smiled
with a bland expression of disappoint-
ment at being deprived of pleasure to
which he was apparently looking for
ward. The repugnance of some of our
party was not to be overcome, and the
sheik turned with an expression of con-
tempt to make preparations for what was
TO follow. Pushing the same dervish's
waist-cloth down an inch or two, he re-
vealed row of cicatrices which made a
semi-circle extending round his body He
then drew curved knife, about eight
inches long and nearly two broad, from a
sheath, and proposed to plunge it to the
hilt in his stomach.

four inches in length, and there was no
possibility Of the blade slipping back
into the handle But here again he was
stopped by cry of horror from the
ladies. This time the man himself

up their minds to leave the place, and
seemed to have no other idea than hur-
rled escape from its precincts, so we made
rather an ignominious exit, leaving the
sheik bewildered and somewhat iadig-
nant at our pusillanimous conduct.

In every country to which we have gone,

American redskin, the Maori, the Tas-

of determination has been painful and
