THE KUKUKUKUs.
Tribe of Cannibals Whose Members
Are Troubled With Nerves.

From the Wide World Magazine.
There are a few native villages around
Kerema. Papua, all friendly to the gov
eminent, which they regard as their chief
protection from the mysterious and much
dreaded Kukukuku tribe.
These kukukukus sound more like
something out of medieval goblin story
than anything modern and real. They
are cannibals and live high up in the
UNEMPLOYED ranges one can see from the
shore. Their neat yam and taro gardens
check the upper peaks like the tiny
squares on plaid coat, suggesting that
the cannioals are industrious and orderly
and fond of a relish with their food. :
At times they descend in small, active
parties upon the tribes of the coast, and
stalk them from the shelter Of the bush
until an opportunity occurs of cutting off
one OF two alone. .s-------.
They are little. quick and cunning. and
their death-dealing raids often take place
without exciting any suspicion on the
part of the victims friends until gaps
among the ranks of familiar faces tell
their silent tale.
Not long before the writer's visit they
hidden by the forest. darted out, cap
tured two of the children playing on the
shore and vanished with their prey be-
fore any one in the village had time to
take alarm. The other children told the
tale. and the magistrate went out with
q handful of native police to ambush
the murderers by night on their way
back to the hills and capture them II pos
sibe.
A voIley fired In the dark was the only
punishment the cannibals received, how
ever. for they discovered the ambush
and got away in their usual mysterious
fashion before the police could follow
up their fire. Traces Of blood on the
path showed that it had been effective.
but the wounded or dead were spirited
away with the rest.
Until last year no white man and few
natives had even seen a Kukukuku.
though they had been the scourge Of the
district for years. One or two however,
were captured at last and taken to Port
Aforesby jail to serve a term of imprison-
mens. They proved to be small. active,
ugly men, very wild and uncivilized and
so nervous that they tremble all over
when looked at. A government official
said TO the writer In all seriousness:

nibals: they are very nervous

During the first half OF the last century
