There were ways to assuage the Malays, who wanted nothing here but the revenue to begin with. He could even see ways to save Man= tusen’s face. Mantusen could go back to the Sultan of Saremba with | ‘ge through being immured in \ this distant river. The sultan, too, the Eslingong revenue guaranteed forever by a white man—a white man as good as working for him. What greater triumph could Mi tusen have taken home than Two more Balingongs and Ma tusen would be a sultan himself! There was something wrong with the whole thing. and my uncle knew it. But he could not find out what it was. The millions that lay in that raj—if only they could be got out—kept pulling him into it with an irresistible appeal. I could not have believed that Clyde would have been drawz in, but it seemed to me that he was being drawn in, before my eyes. And now after dark when Lun- dok came aboard the once more the answer that Clyde gave him made me sure of it. Lundok brot ,ht word of course that the terms Clyde had sent. were impossible. That was to be expected—in fact had been Clyde’s intention. Lundok and Clyde now had another loag talk, both of them ostensibly trying to —_ an radar while yet a different purpose, was in the minds of each.

Mantusen, Clyde stipulated, was | to retire to waremba, with all hon- or, by an agreement which was expressedly voluntary on his part and to his great aayantage. A sum} representing the revenue which Mantusen was ai to} was to be paid hi intervals in the form of au annuity. An an- muity to the Sultan of Saremba Was also to be guaranteed. Clyde, however, was to take) over all the responsibilities of the rajahship, and was to have *he full | life-and-death authority of rajah | of Bamous. Clyde's ee ‘was to permanent as long as fulfilled his part of the contract. These terms were to be set down in Arabic, and sworn to by Man-/ tusen upon the Koran: and the eo 1806—Edwin Forrest. earliest American-born actor of first rank, famed Shakespearian actor, born in Philadelphia.

The rest of the agreement, though somewhat more compli- PORTS cated, was not to be in writing, and part of it was tacit. It had. to do with how-Mantusen and his people were attually to be got out of there.

Loewy, also of Phil- adelphia, accounted for two of the targest tarpon caught here this season, besides several forty- pound amberjack and a great many other varieties. Herbert Lawton, woolen mills magnate of Boston and New York, spends many pleasant hours each day in pursuit of his hobby of fishing for tarpon and bonefish. Large schools of tarpon are running in the nearby chan- nels and there are many bonefish and permit on the flats within a short distance from the pier. Fishing at night for small sharks from the pier has been an amusing pastime for a number of fuests. Major H. W. Beyette, of Babylon, L. 1, was startled when he hooked into a huge shark that nearly pulled him into the water. With the aid of five men the mon- ster was finally lifted onto the vier and found to weigh four hun- dred and eighty pounds. J. D.
