struggled on, suffering intensely for
lack of food, for the Spaniards and
Indians had destroyed the villages and
crops along the way. At one point
they found a number OF leathern bags,

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

An amusing story is going the
rounds in Fleet street about an editor
who, to the surprise of those under
him. had just accepted a large batch
OF contributions. The manuscripts
were not of any remarkable brilliance;
indeed, in the ordinary way they
would nearly all have been returned
TO the senders with the usual formula
announcing that the editor regretted
he was unable to make use OF them.
The explanation of this apparent &C
centricity on the part of the editor
was that the other evening be took
the manuscripts home In his bag to
read at leisure. Between the Office
and his station he stopped to buy a
bottle of whisky, which he put in the
bag beside the manuscripts. In the
train the bag got an unnoticed bang.
and when he arrived home he was hor-
rified to find the bottle broken and the
manuscripts smelling strongly OF
whisky Now, that editor has a great
reputation for dignity and aobriety.
