by sounding toot
The Indians Of this district are OF q
physique considerably superior TO
those Of the mainlsnd OF Mexico and
the colorado River deIte country. but
still far inferior to the magnificent
seri OF Tiburon Island. whom they re-
semble slightly. Unlike most Of their
brethren of Lower California, they live
largely by hunting and fishing. and
pay little attention to agricultural
pursuits. Their original weapon was
the bow, which they still handle with
great proficiency. but in the last de-
csde or two . number of old rifles have
fsllen into heir hands. and upon these
they now place most Of their depend
ence in hunting. They are poor shots
but wonderful stalkers. and an Indian
with ammunition never goes hungry.
Water fowl Of many varieties are
very numerous about the bay, and the
duck shooting along the shore Is no
whit inferior to the quail shooting ten
miles inland. Pelican shooting also
affords no little sport. besides furnish
ing the officers with most unique SOU
venirs in the form of robes made by
sewing together the skin OF the breasts
Of a number OF these great birds. The
pelican is one Of the most tenaciously
feathefed birds known to natural his
tory. and one Of these robes, besides
being very beautiful. is practically In
destructible in the course of ordinary
wear. They may be bought from the
Indians. but as those so obtained are
Invariably filthy beyond description.
there is practically no other course
open for the would.be possessor but to
kill his own birds. AS 1t is rarely pos
sible to approach flock of pelicans
close enough for a shotgunsto be used
effectively, they must be killed one by
one with a rife, feat which requires
no little skill with that weapon. A
prime pelican robe Is worth from 500
to $500. according to its size. the value
being usually computed at the rate OF
about a dollar skin.

Among Thieves
IN TOO MUCH cLARKs-
BURG BOOZE AND GOT
TOUCHED.

GRAFTON, March l3.-Yesterday
morning there was arralgned before
Justice Lilly one E. L. williamson on
charge OF being drunk and carrying
too much artillery in his clothes. The
justice. after hearing the particulars
in the case fined the prisoner $25 and
costs, for carrying concealed weap-
ons. The story of the mans expert
ence shows that Mr.. williamson. who
lives on Buffalo creek few miles
above Rowlpsburg. went to Clarks
burg from home to look after slime
business there, and while in that city
he got hilarously drunk and took 4
train in the evening for Grafton. He
got on the train at the depot hero
and still being in mood for some
exciting experiences got confidential
with colored man about the plat
form, who entered at once into the
white brothers plans and showed him
the way out to the East End where
there he was introduced to the homo
of some colored folks and when he
completed his pursuit of the object he
had in mind on his return to the de-
pot he was no nearer sober than
when he started out. He was TAX

ing disorderly. When searched he

Senior n. Rafael Castro Montana has
Ibeeu made captain OF the port and adj.

Until recently only few scattered
novels comprised the town OF Mag.
dslena Bay With the news that 49,
900 men Of the American feet would
make a stay of three weeks there. the
Mexican commercial houses scented
an opportunity for trade and barter
that would likely be immensely profit
able. Temporary structures went up
by the scores and few permanent
buildings have been erected. Sales
men and stocks of goods of all kinds
have been sent to the new city and all
is now in readiness to supply Jack
with anything he may desire. and. in
cidentally, to separate him from his
coin.
In the wake of Legitimate business
enterprises. many OF the outcasts.
gamblers and dive-keepers of this and
other Mexican cities have fiocked to
Magdalena City, and the men and wo-
men who prey upon humanity for sub
sistence will be there in large numbers
to greet the sailors.

business enterprises. Magdalena City
now bears a close resemblance to Con-
ey Island. remodeled along Spanish
American lines. Tamale stands. dance
halls chile con carne 'parlors" and
saloons Jack will find in abundance,
as well as the inevitable arena for bull
fights. The new municipality lies in
valley OF the Coast Range of Baja
California, where the mountains come
down to the sea. The bay is large
enough to anchor whole navy. being
in hearty an inland sea formed by
Magdalena, Santa Margartia, Creciente
and other Islands.
The American navy department has
made arrangements to ship large food
supplies to the fleet at Magdalena
Bay. AS Magdalena City is row a port
of entry. it will not be necessary for
vessels to clear for Ensenada and have
their cargoes thence sent to Magda-
lena Bay. The contracts include 25O'-
900 pounds OF -four 100000 pounds of
fresh beef. $4,000 pounds of franklin
tiers and 5000 pounds oil condensed
milk.
In addition to the hundreds of en-
thusiastic Mexicans who will welcome
Jack upon his arrival at Magdalena
Bay. the sharks and snakes Astounding
in that vicinity will also be on a look
out for the gallant sailormen, and II
he should attempt any sea bathing he
is likely to be sent home in pieces.
