He Ate His Family.

From the Detroit FIR e Press.
This talk about cannibalism in the Greely
party is ali oosh, i" he said yesterday on the post
office steps as lie rubbed his white plug hat on
his elbow. Suppose the living did eat the
dead-what of it?'
Nobody answered him, and be presently con-
tinued
Ten years ago was lost with my family in
the Rocky Mountains When we had eaten our
boots and shoes and whatever else we could
worry down we had TO resort to cannibalism
The baby went first We baked him. and bet
ter dinner never sat down to. Was there any,
thing in that to raise great fuss2"
Three or four Others were added to the crowd
and he went on:
''In the course Of six weeks wife and ate our
five children. We had EN- stewed. roasted and
warmed up. and never relished my meals with
keener zest. Did the papers raise greal howl
over it? Have been ostracized from society on
account Of it!'
He mopped his bald head and rubbed his hat
some more. and then said:
Tine time came when had to eat my wife.
She wasn't as tender and Juicy as the children
but the meat kept longer and furnished more
real nourishment. Nothing of her body but the
right foot was left when | was rescued. Three
days more and would have been compelled to
take my gun and shoot deer and elk and rabbits
and such game or starve to DEATH"
do you mean to say that game was plen ty
around?" asked a little man who had been
breathing hard.
Yes sir-woods full of it."
And you had a gun?''
Yes Sir"
"And yon ate your family In preference to kill
ing gamer"
Certainty hunting was always very distaste-
full to me-"
Then. sir!" yelled the little man, as he
Jumped up and down and plunged around
'then, sir. l characterize you as u monster
a1d-lemme get at him-lemme hit him Oncei''
But the crowd held him back and the man
with the white hat marched off up the street.
saying:
"Well. we'll! what a fuss to raise about my
eating up whole family! Seems to be some
very queer men In this town."
