an. Captain Kohistion, • German trader
and owner of • cutter called the See Ghcet,
started from Queensland in the early pert
of September for the island of Duke, of the
eterrawn Solomon group, with the inten-
tion of procuring a oargo of copra.
The Sea Ghost arrived at Buka at night
and waited until onorning..e There was
somewhat of mist close ;ashore, and it was
well on toward 8 o'clonlarlien the skip-
per went into the rigging with the idea of
steering the schooner through the reef to
an anchorage inside The first officer was
sent forward and the ether officer was in
charge of the wheel
Soon Captain Kohlahon gave word that
several boats were putting uff from shore
for the schooner, but the occupants were
waving palm branches and giving ocher
signals of peaceful intent Anchor was
dropped inside the reef and sails lowered
The captain kept his position in the rig-
ging, as the channel had not been fully
pared, and his orders were to warp in
door to the mainland by means of •
kedge, lo be oanied Inshore by • small
boats
Five or six native tiasta came alongside,
and in • few momenta the Sea Ghost man
and white mates were chatting and mak-
ing friendly signs 10 tbe Solomon island-
ers Before the vessel's crew had made •
move to go below for goods the islanders
drew knives from under their belts and
attacked them furiously. Tice mates and
the Sea Ohoot men seised pieces of wood,
Iron or anything that oould be mad as an
instrument of defense A desperate con-
flict followed. Two native sailors Went
down at 111, 8,14 attack. The mates and
other members of the crew backed up
against the galley and fought against great
odds.
Several more boatload* of armed natives
arrived and fell upon the yawl's crew,
quickly dispatching all but three. One
MID jumped overboard, Berens ashore and
was taken prieoner. And his two surviving
oomractee were overpowered and tied with
ropes
Captain 1Cohlshon was still In the rig-
ging Ha was desperately wounded, se
the spentmen of the Solomon islanders
had flung their Lances at him and .truck

the deck, seised an az and knooked two
of his assailants down. He was soon over-
came, however, and &a body was run
through with spears. The body waa then
thrown over the aide of the schooner.
The natives then started ashore with
their prisoners, taking with theta the
bodies of the mates and Ors other dead
The too prisoners weft thrown into •

different kinds of winter feed is very

For instance, one is positive that corn

cornmeal makes the softer better of the
