how she missed her destiny and her re-
naming colonies have q cast of pa
thetic futi.ity about them today.
Goa is in striking contrast to the
progressive hustle Of British India,
that surrounds it on every hand. The
colony includes three small cities, Of
which New Goa, the capital is the
only one worth mention. Old Goa,
which has a romantic past, is today
nothing but a palm-grown ruin, with
coconuts falling softly in the silence
where once the inquisition established
it's first Office in the Indian PENN
sula.
New Goa is little city without am
bition or purpose to speak of; its
strategic Importance to- Portugal is
small and the greater part of its pop
ulation is sunk in a tropical Incidence.
Although it is only few miles from
impartant Indian cities, it is rarely WIS.,
tied and has little accommodation to
offer. Few white people are to be
seen, except listless Portuguese Off
GERS and soldiers Of the garrison. Fa-
nous old Portuguese names abound on
the shops, but most Of the bearers
seem to have small claim to them, for
they are typical natives Of the Indian
south.
