Preserving the Dead "One peculiar cur tom which was naturally among the first to t.-npreo* Itself upon me and which appaicntly prevailed among all the natives of the Island. Is the method of preserving the dead. The body Is burned but the head Is placed In a small basket on top of a bamboo pole as thick as a man s arm. and thatched ovet the top with the leaves of the sugar palm. Here it Is left to hleaeh and dry and the sight of these ghastly sign posts which wc frequently came across was anything but reassuring. In some places the head Is not detached, hut the entire body ia hung up in a sort of wicker-work wrapping, suspended between two posts several feet above the ground, and It is possible to view through the interstices In the basket •vork the ghastly remains which the breezes swing to and fro as they would a hammock, with a most uncanny ef fect.

A Prisoner Among Maneatcr*. •'At the village of Ixmtong i was made a prisoner, along with carriers. The chief had barn very filemlly when we first appeared, and we had no means of knowing why he hud made us captive*, but the prospect was very discouraging. From where I was seat ed In the native hut which served as a prison, and which was guarded by two stalwart blacks armed with jugged ivar clubs. 1 could overhear an earnest discussion going on among the war rior* who had gathered a short dis tance away. The guide who was be side me told me that they were dis cussing the fate of their prisoners, and us the babble of conversation went on he interpreted such remarks as "We miißt overcome them while they sleep, slay and eat them.' It I* need less to say such a prospect wus suffi cient to banish every thought of sleep. The guide informed me that there were two parties to the discussion: one wished to kill and eat us and the other to let us pays. We had no means of knowing v hleh would prevail, and we sr t all night with our seven guns load ed anil ready for Instant, use. anil our pistols by our sides. There was a tu mult in the early morning, and we gripped the guns, ready to Bell our lives as dtarly as possible. There were cries of 'The enemy! the enemy!’ anil soon it appeared that a neighbor ing tribe had attacked the village, cur rying off two of its women. A little later the chief called to see me and said: 'What If we keep you to work in our fields for a year or two?' I an swered: 'You would not do such a thing.' and to prove that I did not. fear him, J gave the chief a handsome pis tol, which delighted his savage heart and apparently restored him to the greatest friendliness. Seeing that I had made an impression, I added, ‘lf you dare to touch a hair of our heads our brothers will come anil kill all of -on.' The chief Immediately declared that he had no Intention of injuring me, that, in fact, he took me under his protection. "Still I did not trust him, and to ward evening, when be summoned an other council of his followers, I no ticed that he, (vas fingering tbe pistol which I had given him In n manner anything hut reassuring.

" No, we took hint prisoner We lay in ambush In the rice fields, anil when we saw him pass through alone we leaped upon him and brought him to the chief.’ “ ‘Anil Ills brother?’ “ 'His brother fell In war.' “ ‘ln a battle?’ •' 'No, we shot him at night, while he was asleep.

" Couldn't he ransom himself?' •• ‘Ransom? Impossible; ne had to die.’ “ ‘Didn't he cry?’ *• 'Oh, yes, hut that did no good; he was bound fast.' “ ‘And then?’ “ 'We ate him up. of course.
