One was the boys and girls of some of the as well as the smaller Vities, playing around ip the scant covering with which nature blessed them at their birth, Children until they reach the more advanced age of four: teen or fifteen years, go without clothing At firet the young men covered their faces and blushed, but svon they got used to it, and took it as a matter of course, Another thing that impressed them was the ignorance of the people as tu the value of money. A soldier took several hundred dollars in confeder- ate bills to one of the banks at Ponce and received good American dollars to the amount of 8600. The warrior argest | was too exultant over his shrewdness, or rather the banker's ignorance, however, for he proceeded to ‘tank up.’ and could not keep the secret in the overilowing condition of his oyment. It vhed the ears of the banker, who discovered bis blun- and complaint was made to the neral, who sent the soldier to pris- on for four years, The general conception of Ponce, from allusions to it in the newsp pers, is that it is a small town of thatch buts and naked natives, but it is in reality a city of 35,000 or more, with large stone houses and public buildings that would eclipse in ele- vance and costliness some of the Gn- est io this country. i a The story of Howard Clark’s trag- ic end,as a sequel to his flight after killing a Louisville policeman, would furnish the basis of & good romance. He fell while defying Owensboro offi- cers, whom he had bluffed the day before, His paramour, a mere girl, died at bis side, and the stories about how he fired a shot or two at the offi- cers and then handed the weapon to ber, sounds a little fishy, Perhaps, however, he thought she was a better marksman than he,and for this reason surrendered the pistol to her, She jumped in front of him, according to the accounts, and fell dead from a bullet intended for him. He dropped at the same instant, and the fight wasover, The killing was performed io Indiana by Kentucky officers, but whether they had any right to tempt the arrest or not, they rid the country of a esperado,and while the woman probably did not deserve to die,she would not likely have cared to live without the man for whom she had abandoned her good name and everything else, Doa't experiment, bat wet the old reliable Plantation Chill Cure, CREOLE PROVERBS. the Tropics serve how the same ide eelves in different langu different accessories in tries. metimes tl close that we su adaptation; in other cases it | if it were simply the periences common to all nen fection of Creole Guiana, Hayti, Loui Mauritius and Tri compiled by that of tropical Hearn for the Creole is has sce pathetic history ject above referred to. £0 great as to approach identily. “A new broom is a clean brog “When the cat's away the ra ball” are so close to their these.

AN ENGLISH WOMAN’S VIEW, Shady Side of Journalism sion for Wome: In an article which Janet E.
