NAVIGATING TIBURONS.
An Island of Cnnnibais within Four
Hundred Miles of an Ameri-
can Railroad Station.

In response to the frequent plant
that very shortly the dark corners of
the earth will all have been illuminated
with the lamp of civilization, and that
there will be no more unknown lands
for the traveller to explore, or the nov
elist to exploit, it may be pointed out
that actually within 400 miles of Juna,
on the Southern Pacific railroad, there
is an island inhabited by tribe of saw
ages as treacherous and bloodthirsty
as any that have existed on the earth,
says the Cleveland Leader.
A little above the midway line in the
Gulf of California, close in to the So
nora shore, lies the island of Tiburon, a
compact body of land about 20 miles
in length and Is across at its broadcast
part. TO an observer from a safe dis
tance, the low shore line presents a
thickly wooded appearance, with high
mountains in the interior, though be-
yound the fact that it is inhabited by
savages who are cannibals little fur
Their is known.
From time to time few sailors who
have had the misfortune to be wrecked
on the island, and the good fortune to
escape, have reported that upon reach
ing the shore they were decoyed inland
by natives who spoke an unknown lam
guage, when their companions were
killed an deaten. That there is prob
able truth in this assertion is borne out
by the survivors of the expedition sent
out two or three years ago by Jesse
Grant, of San Diego, to prospect the
island, when some members of the party
who had ventured into the interior
never returned, and the remainder
were obliged to sail hurriedly on ac-
count of the threatening attitude of
the natives. So fierce, indeed, has be-
come the reputation of these Tiburon
islanders that the Mexican soldiers are
much adverse to being sent upon expo
ditions to punish their depredations
upon the mainland, to which they an
pear to resort for the purpose of OBJ
tanning wives, much after the manner
in which the Romans first obtained
theirs from the Sabines.
Many theories have been put forth as
TO the origin of this tribe, very prob
able one being that they are lineal de-
scendants Of the Aztecs, driven to this
island retreat by the Spaniards under
Cortez where, rumor further adds
they still practice many of the strange
rites of that conquered people. 1t is
possible, also, they may be akin to the
Yaquis, with whom the Mexicans seem
now to be engaged in desperate con.
fict.
To the man in search OF adventur,
Tiburon island offers an unknown field
comparatively close to the borders o
the United States where he may tes'
his powers of courage and endurance
to the utmost.

JAPANESE TOY FROG.
An Amusing Device for Children
That May De Readily Made
Out of Paper.

The little folks in Japan make some
very interesting paper toys, and none
is more interesting than the frog man
ufactured out of green paper, says an
eastern exchange. First cut piece OF
paper into square much larger than
you expect the frog to be. Draw lines
from the four corners of the square
and from the middle of the sides. First
fold the paper along the diagonal lines,
then turn it over on the other side and
fold it along the lines from the sides.
1t will then form kind of box which
can be pressed together along the folds
in the shape of an unequal diamond.
Now selling the paper below the ends
of the cones, fold it backward 50 as to
have two more regular points. When
this has been done to each of the eight
cones the result will be perfect dia-
mond with smaller diamond in the
center. Then each one of the cones
must be folded again so as tn get all
the points around the center. Care must
be taken to get the points as even and
equal as possible.
To finish the frog turn the upper
points out so that they spread and form
the forelegs, and the. lower points so
that they form the hind legs. When it
is finished a fine thread may be at
taehed to the frogs body, and by care
full jerks it almost seems to leap around
OIL the floor or table. The paper used
should be stiff enough to retain the
folds as given to it, but not so brittle
MS to break under the handling. Do
not be discouraged if the first frog you
make is lame, for then it Is certain
that the points have not been folded
evenly.

some details of the pursuit Of De wet,
the writer saye:

order reveille at twelve, march at one
o'clock but later this was changed
and we were told to go to the relief or

had a smoking concert and a bonfire
They were on small stony rise, half
a mile from water, and hills practically
all around On the morning of the 4th
the Beers opened on them with q gun,
or rather six guns, and during that day
fired three hundred and sixty shells
into them az well as rifle fire. The
Australians had only one gun, muz-
xle-loader, and the fourth shell damned,
and the fire was too hot to get it out.
That night the guns still played on
Them but they dug for all they were
worth, and in the morning, though in
many places 1T was solid rock, they had
tunnels, shelters and splinter proofs,
and the place was fairly strong. That
morning the Beers got a Pom-pom ON
to them at about fifteen hundred yards
range, which fired one shot and then
