choly tone. 1t was quite a relief, when
we saw at last the lights of Abonito.
We drove uD to the hotel, a one-story
structure with porch in front, and
were welcomed BY the landlord with
gush of Spanish. They were just
through dinner. but he invited us out
to the remnants of the feast which was
reinforced by some fried eggs, the best
part of the dinner, by the way, for the
chicken and beef la mode were so
tinctured with garlic, that the Ameri-

Some chick peas and preserved citron
made upthe remainder of the dinner.
From the porch at ten O'Clock that
night, | saw a policeman step to the
corner and blow shrill whistle three
times. The landlord told me that was
the signal for all people to retire from
the streets and seek the seclusion of

Value Of Gutta PerCha.

Gutta Cercha is often confounded
with india rubber, but it is utterly d.f-
ferent. 1t comes from family of trees
that grow only in a small area about
the Malay peninsula and have not yet
been successfully raised elsewhere,
The sap is not to be gotten by tapping,
as with maple syrup, but the tree must
be cut down and the juice pressed out
by beating with heavy mallets. The
gum hunters get some two or three
pounds from the aVera-e tree that is
from 80 to 40 feet high and about 80
years old. and. as no young trees are
planted to replace those felled, the
source of the supply will be a serious
question in the near future. The crude
gum comes to the market in humps
that are sometimes worked into gro
tesque shapes, and must be purified
from sawdust sand, stones and other
foreign matters with which the willy
Chinese dealers adulterate 1t. The
humps are put into "deviling" machines
that tear them to bits and throw the
shreda into trouRhs of water that free
the gum from impurities and leave it
almost pure.

Indian Mound.

Charleston, S. C.-There is an old
Indian mound in the sand hill section
of Crooked Creek. fifteen miles north
of BennettsVille, where skeletons and
Indian relics were unearthed a few
days ago. The mound was near the
old wolf nit. where scores of wolves
were baited and captured by the hunt
ers before the beasts were driven out
of the forests, and the country round
about lis barren and little frsquented
A party of men under command Of
Captain Samuel Kirkpatrick decided
to investigate the mound in the search
for hidden treasure. The first days
work failed to bring any results, but
the digging was resumed the second
day Skeletons, bones, arrows and
pottery were unearthed, and deep
down under the other discoveries was
the skeleton of human being which
measured nine feet in Length. This is
the report from Bennettsyille. al
though it is believed that the human
skeleton was badly measured. Some
of the pottery specimens are supposed
to be valuable as additions to the anti
