The Village In the Jungle.

The Village In the Jungle.
 THAT night we spent at a place
 called Pena Blanca, which diff
 fered in no essential from Ga
 A tun. We slept there in small sheds, along with twenty or thirty of our ships companions wedged tightly together. A dozen other similar sheds adjoined. We were all quarrelsome and disinclined to take much nonsense either from the natives or from each other. Also we needed and wanted food, and we had difficulty in getting it.. A dozen incipient quarrels were extinguished because the majority of the crowd would not stand for being bothered by the row, L
 The next day was clearing, with oc- casional heavy dashfng showers, just to keep us interested. The country be gan more to open up. We passed many grass savannahs dotted with palms and a tree something like our locust. Herds of cattle fed there. The river narrowed and became swifter. Along in the early forenoon we reach ed bolder shores in which the trap rock descended sheer beneath the sur face of the water. Directly ahead of us rose a mountain like a cone of verdure. We glided around the base of it and so came to GorgOna, situated on a high bluff beyond. This we had decided upon as the end of our river journey. To be sure we had bargain ed for Cruces, six miles beyond, but as the majority of our ships compan- ions had decided on that route we thought the Gorgona trail might be | less crowded. So we beached our boat and un1oaded our effects and set forth | to find accommodation for the pres l ent and mules for the immediate flu | ture.
 At first there seemed slight chance of getting either. The place was l crowded beyond its capacity. The Ho- 1 tel Franchise, a shed and tent sort of | combination with a muddy natural floor, was damned. The few native l huts were crowded. Many we saw making themselves as comfortable as possible amid their effects out in the i open. Some we talked with said they
 had been there for over a week, un- | able to move because of lack of trans portation. They reported much fever | and, in fact, we saw one poor shaking 1 wretch, wistfuI eyed as a sick dog ] braced against a tree all alone. The | spirit was drained out of him, and all he wanted was to get back.
 i While we were discussing what TO ! do next our muslin clad eX-padrone. 1 who had been paid and shaken by tn hand some time since, approached 1 smoking a longer cigar than ever l This he waved at us in a most debo- nair and friendly manner.

 The accent was queer, but the words and tune were right Talbot question ed him in Spanish.

 ''Too many" muttered Johnny. wish we'd started three months sooner.''
 It was growing dusk when we came in sight of a village of bamboo nuts on the right bank. To this we headed Hardly had the boat struck the beach

 We followed, considerably mystifed.

 dozen others, already. seated at monte table The padrone was acting as banker!
 We discovered the name of this place to be Gatun. Talbot found us native l hut in which were hammocks we could rent for the night. The hut was two storied affair, with a notched pole by which to c1an11er aloft. l took one look and decided to stay below. My l weight seemed sufficient to bring the

 The town was full of sad eyed, wea-

 That day was not an unmitigated ! joy. It rained, picking the surface of
 the river up in little spots and rings.
 The forest dripped steadily. All the

 The flush slowly faded from John ny's face. Tanks sole contribution to the changed conditions was to spit with great care and to shift the butt of his rife to the ground
 ''Now," Talbot was admonishing the boatman, that was very bad When you make a bargain stick to it. But I'll tell you what I will do- I will ask all people, saDe, everywhere-your peo- pie, my people-and if everybody pays S2o, then we pay $2o. Sabe? But we no pay $2o unless you get us to Cruces poco pronto, sabe? Now we start"
 The boatman broke into a torrent of talk
 Says he's got to find his assistant, 9 Talbot explained to us. Come on, my son. I'll just go with you after that precious assistant
 We sat on-the edge of our boat for half an hour, watching the most com ical scenes. Everybody was afflicted with the same complaint absence of boatmen. Some took possession and settled themselves patiently beneath their little roofs. Others made forays and returned dragging protesting ma tives by the arm. These generally turned out to be the wrong natives, but that was a mere detail. Once in a lucky while the full boats comple- ment would be gathered, and then the craft would pull away up the river to the tune of pistol shots and vocif- erous yeIls.
 At the end Of the period mentioned Talbot and the two men appeared. They were quite amica indeed, friendly-and laughed together as they came. The "assistanE' proved to be a tremendous negro, nearly naked, with fine big muscles and a good ma tured, grinning face. He wore large brass ear circlets and bracelets of cop per. We all pushed the canoe to the 1 very edge of the water and clambered | aboard. The regroi bent his mighty shoulders. We were adoat- 1 Our padrone, as Talbot told us we should call him, stood in front clad in l a co1ored muslin shirt.

 We entered Q tropical forest, and ! never shall I forget the wonder of it The banks were lined to the waters 1 edge with vegetation, so that one could see nothing T,--t the jungle. There i were great palm trees, which we rec ognized, and teak trees, which we dit not, but which Talbot identified for us
