SEARCH FOR STRANGE TREE. ,A hand of British explorers, includ- ing one woman, will. land on the Is- land of Sinlbad the Sailor in a few weeks to search 'for the " mysterious Madagascar "sacrifice tree," which de- vours huanan,beings. The so-called man-eating tree, which actually is said to take' the lives of young 'girls rather than 'nen, is not at product of the imagination, high authorities de- clare.Cap't. V, De La 'Matte Hurst, a .fellow of . the Reya'1 Geographical Society, has been Convinced that it not only ex'is'ts, but that each year it devours several of the most beautiful maidens of the island. The superstiti- ous tribes offer the girls to the tree as sacrifices, he aicl. ' I have 'been told about te:tree by many chiefs of the is-' land and I have no doubt of its.'exist- ence," Captain Hurst said, ".It eats. human beings, but since the natives worship it they itre reluctant to re- veal its location." The tree, as describ- ed to the captain, is similar to a col- ossal pineapple tree. I•t is about eight feet tall and six feet around the base. It has lone; tendrils, which reach up- ward, each about as thick as the arm of a mart. The leaves are large and concave, and are lined with "claves." From the' tree comes an intoxicating liquid, which the natives drink to arouse the hysteria which leads up to the sacrificial ceremony. "'While the natives dance around the tree, a young girl is forced to drink ,the ,liquid,", Captain Hurst said. "Thea she is Com- pelled to get upinto the Middle of the tree. The tree's tendrils and leaves' are hyper -sensitive and as soon as the weight of th.e sacrificial maiden is pressedagainst them,' the tendrils en- twine her. T'he,eaves raise slowly and completely hide"the ;girl: The pressure of the tendrils and leaves is 'like a vise and it is said tate body of the ;girl is crushed. I ant told that -the leaves re- main in that' ferination'for five -or six days and then slowly reopen, Only the bones of the victim are found.
