RARE TREAT FOR HEATHENS
Jake Braun, Bos'un of the Freighted
Swanley, Reveals 3ome Novel Gas-*
tronomic Fancies of Our
Dusky Eastern Brethren.
Now York.—It was a weird story
that was told the other day on the
deck of the British freight steamer
Swanley by one Jake Braun, the
bos'un of the freighter, as to the
origin of the tons of curios that wero
being taken off the steamer at the
faush stores in South Brooklyn.
Jake Braun told the story of how
many of these curios came to be on
board and who secured them. They
were all traded for, and the trade
that was made was almost beyond
comprehension. Local ice cream deal
ers and manufacturers of delicacies
may as well go out of business if they
depend upon shipments of their wares
to the fur ear;t, for the native of the
Malabar coast and other outlandish
places has openly declared hlmsell
against sweets and caramels and sole
ly in favor of—axle grease!
"Yessir," began Braun as he spun
the yarn of the curio swapping in the
far east. Yessir, ye needn't take
no fancy things to China or'to Slnga
pore with you If you want a good
trade.
"On a previous voyage lne an' the
other fellows aboard the ship took
with us all the pretty things that we
could think of. These were such
things as pin cushions, roller skates,
safety pins, hair ornaments, buckles,
phonygrafs and such, an' we hoped
for a lively exchange with the natives
an' to get enough in trade to sell here
an' retire on.
"About six o' us went to the coast
one day with our things and tried to
swap with those fellows all day long
without getting so much as a cocoa-
xft. We even offered them money,
but they only grinned and held on to
what they had. In the jtock that we
had taken ashore was a can of axle i
grease tt it h id come ashore with us
against our permission. One of the
niggers stuck his fingers in the can
and eats the axle grease an' the next
minute we were offered every sort of
Inducement to leave the axle grease
with them.
"They even offered us the induce-
ment of a massacre an' were only
restrained by the sight of our pistols
for which even the natives of the Mal-
abar coast, the most blood-thirsty
devils that over were, have a whole-

Rome regard. Finally, we 'lowed the
axle grease to stay with the natives,
but we teok all the curios and orna
ments they had and netted a pretty
penny on them at Colombo.
"So, when we comes here again, 1
thought I'd put in my spare money in I
axle grease. I got some of the others |
on board to do the same, an' when wo
again struck tbe coast and went
ashore each of us had nothing except
axle grease to trade. There was a
cellybration among the cannibals, an'
they took all we had an' we tdok all
they had, which was no small matter.
Much of what they bad came on tho
steamer wid us here, an* we hop© to
realize a good profit on the same.
"Those natives like that axle grease

ply must now be exhausted."
