enough in itself; but, unfortunately,
it also placed M. Hamelin in a terrible
predicament, for-as he was leader of
the EXPEDITION and thus held respons-
ible for the death of the kings rela-
tive-he was bound, according to the
native law, to do one Of two things
to be burned alive Of to marry the
widow of the deceased and be father
to his family. M. Hamelin did not
hesitate long in his decision. He
chose the latter alternative.
If the orchid-hunter had merely to
face the dangers of fever and wild ami
mails his business would be risky
enough; but to these is added the
fanaticism of fierce tribes to whom
the orchid is often an object of ven
GRAFTON, to tamper with which means
certain death If caught. When one
realizes the terrible Journeys that
have to be made in quest of orchids,
and the dangers that must be faced,
one does not wonder at the great cost
of these expeditions; and the worst of
it is the fruit of many months of labor
and the expenditure of thousands and
thousands Of dollars, are often wasted
before the consignment reaches home.
AS an illustration of this risk I may
tell you that, out of large consign-
ment once sent from Colombia of over
10000 plants, only two survived the
journey; and $500 was all the return
for an expenditure which must have
run into thousands

Down by the Sea.

Is a romantic four act comedy
drama. It was originally produced At
the Princess treatre, London, England
in 1895, and later held the stages OF
other noted theatres in that city and
the English provinces. It Is still one
Of the big successes Of Great Britain.
The plot involves those familiar and
ever interesting passions jealousy
and revenge cleverly woven around
strong dramatic situations.
The play is %peopled with human
characters taken from real life. While
unique in idea they do not caricature
nature, but truthfully illustrate the
rugged and honest character Of people
whose lives are controlled by thu
waves Of old ocean. The school MAJ
ter, the parson, the fisherman, thu
boat builder, the light tender, tn

saver are but a few Of the interesting
