tain Porter by the seris Indians. on
Tiburon Island, in the Gulf of Calfor-

to the Mexican customs officials by
Martin Mendez, master of the sloop
Otila, Captain Porter sailed from San

small boat, to engage in collecting
Shells They left the port of Guayamas
on Aug. o. under special permission
from the Mexican government, to ex-
plore the shores and islands of the
gulf
The consul says the Island of Tihuron
is one of the largest and most pic
turcsque in the Gulf Of California, and
is peoped by most remarkable tribe
of Indians, who are noted for their
large size and extraordinary athletics
on land and water. Those who have
witnessed their aquatic sports at a
respectful distance declare that many
of them can actually walk, or rather
run, upon the water. with no other as
slstance than broad rawhide shoes.
They are, writes the consul, expert
fishermen and huntsmen, having rigid
ideas as to the maintenance of game
preserves on their island and limiting
the killing of game under severe penal
ties. They destroy all children in in

one time the native women were eX-

nucleus of this race of higher women
was formed from captives made at
various times, extending over a series
Of years, on land and water. They
have no schools, but each home has
system Of physical training.
The natives guard their shores day
and night, and no man is allowed to
penetrate the island even If he should
make landing. 1t is said that no epi-
