Mr.. Jowders looked gloomily at the
letter to which he had just painfully
affixed his signature, and then cast a
dubious glance at his wife.
"Do you want to just run this over

quired; and when Mrs. Jowders shook
her head, he hastily folded the sheet,
which bore the marks of hours Of
toll, and thrust it into an envelope
which he sealed with trembling expedi-
ton, and then leaned back in his chair
with an air of relief.

and then most likely 'twould be all to

good purchase on the system Of spell

GAS view it, continued Mr.. Jow-

the sound; them can most gently

LIVING ON MONKEY MEAT.
Straits to Which an American Prog
uectnr Was Reduced In Mexico.

Straits to Which an American Pros.
pector Was Reduced in Mexico.
Living in Mexico is often a disas-
trous experience to the foreigner who is
not acquainted with localities and GUS
toms. In the case of John Bascon and
his companion, an Englishman named
Martin Hayes, their experience was
such, but it is also interesting. In con-
versation with Mr.. Bascon that gentle
man stated the following to an Enter
prise reporter:
Not long ago came up from Guate-
mala with an Englishman named Mar-
tin Hayes, and we had three burros
laden with goods. We prospected all
along the line to Tonelado, and stopped
for one week with an Indian at Tehu-
antepec. While there we learned that
in the district up to Tonelado there was
plenty of gold, as another Englishman
had passed through there with $4,000,
which he had panned out at a certain
point somewhere in the region of San
Pablo, in Oaxaca. We traced the gold
along the streams for sixty miles, and
reached as far as San Miguel. We
were very hungry by this time, having
run short of provisions, and, going
across the mountains, were told that
we should be careful, as banditd were
numerous. Soon after two men met us
not far from San Miguel, and the both
had rifles. They ordered US to halt,
but pulled a revolver and took their
guns away from them and marched
them on in front of us. When we ar
rived at San Miguel one of them enter
ed complaint before the jese politico
charging us with holding them up, but
the jese knew the men too well to list
en- to their story, and the result is one
Of them is still in Jail at that place.
when we left San Miguel we secur-
ed mozo to guide u to where the
Englishman referred to found his gold,
but when we got there the mozo would
not stay, as it was known the English
man had returned and died there. We
found his skeleton, with the legs and
arms eaten off, and the mozo, being
fearful he would see the ghost of the
dead, left us to ourselves. We went
across river and camped in the ad-
jacent woods. Along the stream we
prospected for gold, and in two weeks
we found gold which went about 25
cents to the pan. We remained there
about six months, and all that time we
lived on monkey meat and green ba-
nanas, and both, too, without salt. Just
think Of it.! Nothing but monkeys, and
occasionally a fowl or two, and not a
tortilla or common hot cake. Well, sir,
my partner, Martin Hayes Of London,
England, died four months after from
the privations suffered during that
time, and don't suppose his wife or
family ever heard of it. But we got
some gold, all right, and monkey meat
would have been all right for me, If we
only had some Chihuahua En-
terprise.
