Most cf them jre rough and mountainous, and covered with dense tropical forests, a rites Albert C. Lewis in FiclJ Museum News. The natives form a part of the Melanesian group of peoples, all of ;.rhor.i spei k languages also known as Melanesian. These are fundamentally related in a grammatical sense, but differ greatly in vocabulary. The Soloman inlanders are vigorous and warlike, but are compelled to keep the peace except in the interior of one or two of the larger islands. Many of them were forand cannibals, merly and often made raids on their neighwar cabors, using large noes 43 to SO feet long, capable of carrying 25 or more men. Clubs snd spears were the principal weapons, but bows and arrows were used in some places. The natives are of medium height, but vary considerably. In the western end of the group they are rather tall, somewhat negroid in appearance, with kinky, black hair and a k skin. The very dark or eastern islanders are somewhat smaller, of a lighter, chocolate-brow- n color, with curly or wavy hair. ' It is evident that in the Solomons, as in all other Melanesian islands, there is an underlying Oceanic negroid or Papuan type, mixed to a greater or lesser degree with Indonesian or Malayan immigrants. For food the natives are largely dependent on their gardens, taro being the most important foodstuff. Other vegetables are used to some extent, but taro is the basis of nearly every meal, with fish, shrimp or meat (chiefly pork) being added when obtainable. The natives are very fond of the milk and meat of the unripe coconut, to obtain which they must climb the coconut palms.

A clamor is to be raised soon for a preciois jewel which disappeared about 03 years ago. It is a large milky opal which once formed the central piece in the crown of the Holy Raman empire, which is now kept in the imperial treasury of the Vienna Hofburg. The crowns orb, Burgundian work of the Tenth century, was adorned with a large round opal, sung by medieval minstrels as the "Unique Jewel, as Orpanus" (Sage) or as Candidus (the White and Innocent). Experts point out that such a jewel is practically unbreakable, and that even to an uneducated eye the lvalue of the large stone must have been obvious. Therefore, in thoir opinion, this opal can hardly have been- lost. They say that the history of almost all famous jewels can be traced through the centuries. According to them the imperial opal, in all likelihood, rests unrecognized in some private collection Of jewels, and that probably it has 'found its way back to India whence jit came and where it may be contained now in the treasury of one 'of the maharajahs. ! ed - I SHOE REPAIRING Half Soles Heels Beehive Shoe Shop John Sanigcr, Prop. 965 East 17th South |
