Marco polo'S Account of the Plateau OF
panl.r and It, Inhabitants.
In leaving Badashan you ride y
days between east and northeast,
ascending the river that runs
through land belonging to brother
of the Prince of Badashan and con-
tanning a good many towns and vii
lagos and scattered habitations. The
people are Mohammedans and val
liant in war. At the end Of those y
days you come to a province OF no
great size, extending indeed no more
than three days journey in any oil
rection, and this is called Vokhan-
The people worship Mohammed ana
they have a peculiar language. They
are gallant soldiers, and they have
@ chief whom they call none, which
is as much as 10 say count, and they
are liegemen to the Prince OF Bada-
shan.
There are mum bers of wild beasts
of all sorts in this region. And when
you leave this little country and
ride three days northeast, always
among mountains, you get to such
height that it is said to be the high
est place in the world. And when
you have got TO this height you find
a great lake between two mountains
and out of it a fine river running
through a plain clothed with the
finest pasture in the world, inso-
much that lean beast there will
fatten to your hearts content in ten
days. There are great numbers Of
all kinds of wild beasts, among 9th
ers wild sheep of great size, whose
horns are coed six palms in length.
From these horns the shepherds
make great bowls to eat from, and
they use the horns also to inclose
folds for their cattle at night.
Messer Marco was told also that
the wolves were numerous and kill
ed many OF those wild sheep Hence
Quantities of their horns and bones
were found, and these were made
into great heaps by the wayside in
order to guide travellers when snow
was ON the ground
The plain Is called Panir, and
you ride across it for u days alto
gether, finding nothing but desert
without habitations or any green
thing, so that travellers are Obliged
to carry with them whatever they
have need OF. The region is so lofty
and cold that you do not even see
any birds flying. And must notice
also that because of this great cold
fire does not burn so brightly nor
give out so much heat as usual, nor
does it cook food SO effeotually.
Now, if we go on with our jour
ney toward the east-northeast, we
travel good 40 days, continually
passing over mountains and hills or
through valleys and crossing many
rivers and tracts of wilderness. And
in all this way you find neither hab-
itation of man nor any green thing,
but must carry with you whatever
you require The country is called
Bolor. The people dwell high up in
the mountains and are savage idol
aters, living only by the chase and
clothing themselves in the skins Of
beasts. They are in truth an evil
race.-"The Story of Marco Polo, "
by Noah Brooks, in st. Nicholas.

THE ERR

The Citizen gave c. G. Perry, sheriff Of
Chaves county, who disgraced himself on
an incoming passenger train a few days
ago, the benefit of a free write-up last
Saturday.
Since then The Citizen has been informed
that Perry, while in this city, stated that
he had bought up the newspapers here and
that they would not dare say anything
about his actions.
If be will take time to glance over The
Citizen of last Saturday he will find out
his mistake. - tbaquerque Citizen.
1t cannot be possible that Perry did
have the papers of Albuquerque bought
up, of course, but it does seem strange
that nothing was said in either of them
about Perry's escapade until The Or.
TIC had published the affair, and
called the Albuquerque papers down
on their silence. Great is the enter
prise of the papers of the Duke city.
