Varian had landed at the only primitive fishing vIIIuku in a hun dred miles of roast Hue of the .State, of Chiapas, ills Spanish vocabu lary was about two score words and after some time, he found a native who had been 'outside" nnd who likewise kiidw a few Spanish words. All the other Indians spokn only a native dlalert. probably Mayan, dating back four or five centuries. 1'or two days, until his compan ions located bis plane, Varian lived with the Indiana whoso life has ad vanced practically none at all since the Spanish conquest. Their solo diet was fish from the Pacific and cakes and tortillas made from corn, which was ob tained by trailing dried fish for corn nt an interior point fifty miles away, across a great swamp.

They made cigars by crumpling -,ip to bacco leaves and wrapping the dust Into a whole leaf, which was light ed from their ever-burning camp- fire. Two days after Varian bad been rescued and had returned to Vera Cruz, there arrived at that city tin' telegram which ho had dispatched by an Indian runner to the nearest telegraphic point, advising his su periors of his predicament 'and lo cation. The dispatch bearer had crossed the swamp to tho nearest inland town, from which olaee a horseman had carried tho telegram to a farther inland railroad point.
