New Zealand Is Maoriland, the home
of a most interesting race. About one
thousand years ago there lived on the
isle Hanaiki the forefathers of the
Maori. One OF their priests, TIE Kupe,
relates writer In the Mississippi
Blaetter, had offended the chief, and
to prevent his being killed his friends
sent him, provided with provisions
enough to last some time, adrift over
the sea In a canoe. Home and friends
he would never see again, he thought,
and by his people he was mourned as
one dead. To the JOY Of the islanders
he returned after II months. giving
them glowing description Of the
wonderful land he had discovered. His
information caused a stirring agita-
ton, and In short time seven canoes
were fitted out by the natives to sail
to the land OF promise and settle
there.
