large man. whose jolly. smooth-shayen

whereupon the large gentleman proceeded
to tuck napkin under his collar and at
tackled the dish with a quiet gusto that
was exhilarating to witness. He had dis

way steadily through the remainder when
his waiter sauntered up from behind and
leaned coniidentially over his shoulder.

of professional soIicitude. Eli" exelaim-

was curious about it, You see I'm "a

VENEZUELA BUYS ATAL4NT4.
LOMBIA LOST. SECURED BY
RIVAL REPUBLIC.

1t became known yesterday that General n.
Bolet-Peraza confidential agent in this country
OF Venezuela acting on instructions from Presi-
dent Cipriano Castro, has purchased George j..
Gould's steam yacht Atalanta for that republic
She will be converted into gunboat The
negotiations have been conducted with such
secrecy that not even Consul General Gonzalez
was aware yesterday that the deal had been
consummated. The Atalanta is to cost Venez-
uela $125. 900. It is said that $4,000 Of this
amount paid on Friday.
The Colombian Republic entered into negotl-
atoms for the purchase OF the Atalanta from
George J. Gould through the Driggs-Seabury
Gun and Ammunition Company five months
ago and paid $50 600 before II actually possessed
the yacht. Through some hitch in the negou-
ations. according to the DriGgs-Seabury com
pany because the balance of the purchase price,
$4,000 was not paid in the time specified
in the contract. Mr.. Gould regained possession
OF the yacht.
Senor Emiliano IsaZa the representative OF
the Colombian Republic, is now suing the
Driggs-Seabury company to recover the S6O.OOO
paid. alleging failure to keep the contract on
their part.
That her most bitter enemy. Venezuela. has
got possession of the coveted vessel after herself
spending $50 600 on II will be a hard blow
Colombia. To what the Venezuelan Govern
ment will put the Atalanta after she Is con-
verted into a gunboat does not appear. There
has been i'll feeling between the neighboring
republics. and 1t was said that Colombia wanted
the vessel TO aid in war on Venezuela This
story is discredited here. the opinion being that
she was to be used in operations against rebels.
1t is thought that President Castro wants the
Atalanta to form a part OF an increased navy.
