A correspondent of the Boston Com- mereial Bulletin is responsible for the followiug horrible tale: Locating our camp on a suitable spot on the south shore of the Amazon, as nearly as that river can be suid to have any shore, Murilla and I proceeded to make daily excursions into the forest in all direc- tions, usually leaving two of the boat- men in charge of the camp, and taking the other two along to carry supplies. The concession proved to be a muxt magnificent forest. Mahogany were there by the thousand, nc but the woodman’s ax and transporta- tion down to futeh £230 apiece. The tract was intersceted by creeks in all directions, along which timber might readily be floated to the vivt ys after our arrival at the concession, when I wol Murilla with me for a short expedition into the forest. It was a feast day with the Indians, and as we intended to return before evening we loft them all four in camp, merely providing ourselves with around of hard-tack apiece and some cold venison for lunch., At noon where we sat down to eat our lunch Murilla discovered ,near by a clump of low bushes bearing a yellowish be This fruit he professed to re- cognize as a familiar variety which he had often eaten down toward the coast, though he had never secn uny before so far in the interiol After testing them ed them d icious, but of ent flavor to those on the east cou: ‘We both u(u of the berries l|humll) ast suspicion of injurious offeets, 1 finding them, as Murilla de- clared, delicious, Ten minutes after eating the first berry, however, both of us became thrilled with a strange e hilaration.

So cool and philosophieal did I beginsto review the situation that I concluded I must have suddenly gone mad. If there was the slightest hope of escape, [ argued with myself. it would be in keeping my presence of mind and remaining perfectly quiet. Every struggle I might make to get loose woula land me an inch further down into the depths of the boa's slippery tomb by bringing into play the hooked fangs, and arousing the activity of that lom from horrible suction force within.
