Winnipeg, Man., Oct. 12.-Tales of

A. Osborne, the veteran editor of the

desolate and uninviting country. Were
the stories told by any one than
James they would be taken with many
mental reservations, but Osbornc's
record for veracity leads to the belief
that the tales he brings, which are the
results of his own research and verifi-
cation. are true.

had killed and eaten eight human be-

dren. so great was4the famine. This
lack of food primarily was brought
about by the fact that the woods
seemed almost entirely without the
usual number of deer and rabbits.
upon which animals the natives ordi-
narily subsist.
AS these occurrences did not seem
to have caused any tremendous stir in
that region Osborne has come to the
conclusion that cannibalism is prac-
ticed open upon many occasions
among the Indians and half-breeds.

One village on Main river practical
