Iiah for Thieves -tn A I antra.
'Rome weeks ago a Yukon outfit that
had Imui packed from Dym to Sheep
Camp by a party on tho way to the In
terior of the Klondike country was
stolen. A "committee" of miners such
being tho ominous term by which that
sort of gathering Is designated in the
new country tracked the thieves to the
summit of Chllkoot l"ass, where the
lost property was recovered. Iater the
"commltte-" captured two men and
brought thorn back to camp for trial.
They gave tho names of William Wel
lington and Edward Hanson.
Throe of the "committee" favored
lynching Wellington and Hanson, but
they finally consented to a compromise
on sixty lushes for Mich of the two cap

Wellington had been "formally" sen

hut where he had been confined, when

Exolorer Sullivan Finds a Tribe of
Pigmies on Orinoco River.
Eben J. Sullivan, a South American
explorer, claims to have discovered a
race of living brownies near the head
waters of the Orinoco River In the
wilds of Surinam, In describing his
find, Mr. Sullivan says:
"The queer child people are about
four feet in height Their skin from
head to foot Is a brilliant reddish
brown, translucent in effect Their legs
are like plpestems, scarcely the size of
a child s arm, while their arms are
ridiculously small and thin, and their
stomachs are big, out of all proportion
to the body, nnd distended back as well
as front
Their faces are flat and flabby liko
those of Palmer Cox's brownies.
"I think they number 10,000 to 15,-
000. They are nomadic, moving over
thousands of square miles. It was pure
ly by accident that I came upon some
of their roving bands. A traveler might
have to search for months in the same
region In order to find any of them.
All those that 1 saw were rn different
Darts of Surinam. .
"In measuring these little folk I found
none over four feet and eight inches.
and the women were much shorter.
They use the style of headdress so com
mon among African tribes that of
shaping many designs by mixing mud
with their hair: both men and women
.in tiita. Clothlmr in their village Is
worn only by adults, and then seldom
more than a cloth over the loins. But
they bedeck themselves with many
brass and copper ornaments. They
have tribal marks that sometimes cover
tile entire body nnd head. These ore
made by slits in the 6kln.
"They live In little houses called mas
sougos, of mud or woven dried grass,

knees. I went Into one and It seemed
like a' child's playhouse. There were
oueer little Images, Idols, fetich gods
set up all about They roprescntea ani
mals mostly and there were many ugly
specimens of clay pottery. There were
little fetich doctors in clay and many
other things of the sort suggesting most

are, I believe, all pagans, though some
of them seem to hare an Idea of a su
