meal, some plantains and several jars
of wine were discovered in a cave.
On the sixth day after leaving Cruces

covered the South sea. This happy
sight, as If it were the end of their
labors, caused infinite joy among
them" Then they came to a vale,
where they found plenty of cattle. and
their period of starvation came to an
end with monstrous feast. Cutting
the flesh into convenient pieces or
gobbets, they threw them into the fire
and, half carbonaded or roasted, they
devoured them. with Incredible haste
and appetite; such was their hunger,
as they more resembled cannibals than
Europeans; the blood many times run

That evening the pirate band came
in sight of Panama, and pitched their
camp, which was Intellectually bonn
barded all night by the guns of the
city. Next day Captain Morgan led his
thousand bold men down the hillside
and confronted the forces of the gov
ernor of Panama, consisting of two
squadrons of horse, four regiments of
foot and huge number of wild bulls
driven by Indians. The Spaniards be-
gan the battle. but their horse were
useless. owing to the softness of the
ground. The foot were held in check
by the fire of the pirates, SO the wild
bulls were driven forward but, fright
ened by the noise of the conflict, the
animals ran away. After two hours
of fighting the surviving Spaniards
fed within the city walls. Six hun
dred of their comrades lay dead upon
the field. Morgan at once attacked

Who wouldn't undertake to own
pretty boudior cap and gown when
both can be made for about two dol
lars and a half expenditure? Since
manufacturers of lace have said good
by to the old handmade patterns and
have turned their attention to the
original designs that can be made by
machinery, we have new order of
the filmiest and most exquisite laces
that cost hardly more than fine, plain
cotton fabrics. This adaptation OF de-
sign to mechanical workmanship has
done wonders In putting pretty things
within the reach of even woman
These laces are woven in wide fiounc-
ings as well as narrow edgings and
can be used like any other thin mate

advance in popularity this season.
The cheaper varieties of machine
made laces are not specially durable,
but they are not intended for gar
ments demanding durability. But with
modest outlay one can buy the Ger

lace and be sure of their wearing
qualities. 1t is laundering that is hard

Chiffon Motor Bonnet.

Among the attractive new automo-
bile caps is one of two thicknesses Of
chiffon. made like sunbonnet The
chiffon is green and blue and is shirred
over a wire frame which fits closely
about the head and flares out over the
face. The inside of the bonnet is blue
and the outside is green.
Rafiia is also used for automobile
bonnets. A prettily patterned cap is
woven of colored straws and is mount
ed over shirred foundation OF col
ored silk. A frill OF the silk about the
face and neck softens the effect of the
rafiia. A silk chin string fastens at
one side under bunch of artificial

New sashes.

To the invention of new sashes
there seems no end. These long
lengths of supple material are an alb
solute rage in Paris. and they art
worn by women and girls of all ages
Some Of the newest sashes are tieo
directly In front. in a large. full bow:
others are tied at the side rather low
down: others. again, are wound round
the hips In Fatima fashion and simply
knotted at the back.
All the art shades OF blue are in de
mand for these sashes, especially the
blue known as Madonna.
For wearing with pure white dresses
we find smart sashes of printed gauze
which exploit various shades of red in
termingled with touches of black and
deep blue. Almost all the sashes OF
this season are fringed in order thai
they may fall heavily.

desperate, many of the pirates being
killed, Panama fell within three hours.
What Morgan did to the devoted in
habitants in the effort to find all their
hidden treasure is too horrible to re-
late. Soon after the capture of the
city fire broke out in many quarters,
and Esquemeling says the confiagra-
ton was started by Morgan, though
he laid the blame on the Spaniards.
Anyway. as the houses were almost
all built of cedar, ehe entire city was
soon consumed by flames. Some three
weeks later Captain Morgan departed
from Panama, or rather from the place
where the city of Panama stood; of
the spoils whereof he carried away

with silver, gold and other precious
things, besides about six hundred pris-

slaves"

the ruins of the cathedral. the tower

view by the efforts of the Panama
government, which Is having the un

The massive walls of Fort San Lor-

in part reads as follows:

line 28-3Oc per gallon, kerosene zoe per
gallon, bananas sc apiece or 6 for Csc,
oranges SC straight, lemons &c or for

per month but for carpenters and
other trades I do not know. AS to
prices of land not much can be said at
present as all about here is either In
dian land or land that is homesteaded.
Most of the Indian land is not for
sale and the remainder is just begin
ming to be proved upon. The price is
not yet established. We homesteaders
would like to see this Indian land
sold to white settlers as the present
owners do not have to pay taxes yet,
