Moiembique being one of the 'kirk nipal CO1lVict settlements of the Portu- guese government, many poor crea- tures make desperate dashes for liber- ty only to be devoured by the sharks before the eyes of their guards. It was no uncoramon ei'ent to hear the fortress gun boom forth, announcing that another poor soul was running this ghastly gantlet of the sharks soon- er then exist like a bait starved dog In deplorable surroundings. There being no capital punishment under Portuguese law, many of the. convicts tvere of course of the most desperate type -notorious murderers, and so on. Some of them, after a certein time and as a reward for good conduct were allowed to work on parole, - leaving the fortress in the morning and returning at night, ply- ing their various trades to their own advantage. , Others of 'a More danger- ous character might be seen working in chains on the road, guarded by slovenly half caste sepoys. ' Outside the dungeon cells were whipping posts, over which poor crea- tures had to kneel, their arms and legs being bound to iron rings. while lashes were administered with a chi- cotte, a strip of hippo hide. Palma - toile was another torture used, Al- though illegal to Portuguese law, It is nevertheless still widely used, causing excruciating pain.

I There is a good Fleet street story, says a writer in the London Daily Citi- zen, of how a reporter once adjourned' • the house of lords. He had worked in the gallery of the house of lords for, about a quarter of a centory, may be that lamiliaelty had dimmed his sense of reverence.

The soldiers who are fighting in the many armies of Europe eat 11,- Z5 0 tons of food each day. These figures' are based on the allowances made by each, country for each man in war time and averaged by an auth- ority on* comraissariat. R is figured that the average .for • each man is 21.-4 Pounds et food a - day. It has been stated that 'there are from 8,600,000 to 16,0-00,00,0 men now on the battle lines.

If these 560 cars were divided' into trains of forty cars each it would means four- teen trains ,drawn by the largest en- gines in the couotry. Each nation ;has its own. system of -feeding its men, and now it is realized everywhere that to enable the men to fight at their best they. -must be fed properly. Great Brltaln sends food trains to follow eaeh divi- sion, andthese trains, equipped with. the different foods,, deal out to, each regiment provitions, which are served to the men or are cooked and served from the kitchens. The French also 'furnish their men with food, especial- ly when they are fighting on the de- fensive, as they have been so far. in the present war, but. when they are In an enemy's country; they follow largely the system of the Germans, that the country should supPort the army as far as possible. The Germans In the present war have beet able to follow this plan, so that it is prob- able that they have not had to drat very largely on their reserve stores. Catering for the army has become a science. Each country has its ex- perts who have figured out just what is needed for the men at home and. when in the field carrying arms. Each' has figured just what is necessary for all climates, and men who are sent' to fight in cool climates have dif- ferent food from those sent to war in the tropics.

It may come as a surprise to the reader to learn that whales and por. poisca often visit British shores, and that several whale -hunts have taken place at prominent seaside resorts. According to an. old fisherman in- terviewed by the, writer recently, w',afes are often found when the tide Is out lying half -buried in -the sand. It was not so very long ago that over sixty bottle -nosed whales were -stranded in Mount's Pay, near Pen- zance. Thoyi came in with the tide, and *ere leit helpless at low water. Crowds of h lidayemakers made their way -to the beach to inspect the whals,' Some of which Measured quite. 25 feet from nee° to tail. Sev- eral mischievous lads slashed the le- viathans with pocket knives, ' and eventuallythe wounded monsters were _killed by gunshot. Liter, when. the tide returned, the living whales, nearly forty in number, floated off in- to the sea. - A large whale was once thrown up- on the beach at Scarborough, and f. bauk. At timds we were not SO fOr tIll- when it came to be measured it WO found to be no less than 49 feet i,nate. Then both of us went down into in lengtl,. f the Water, and we eongrhtniated our Perhaps the largest whale ever:, Selves when it was a stream and not caught by chance was the one towed -: a nasty, muddy swamp.- • Into Ostend kfaxbor many years -age.1 : ' It raeasures. over 100 feet in length, who is the first person known t and weighed 249 tons.
