It is sailing-time. The townspeople have turned out en masse to bid us farewell, and the open spaces on the new concrete wharf are ablaze with color. The chatter of a thousand voices comes to us as we stand upon the deck looking down on the scene. Every one seems happy. The great whistle on the ships funnel, after a preliminary gargling of its throat, shatters the tranquil air with a peremptory warning. The screw churns up a malstrom beneath the overhanging stern, and we swing out into the channel amid a storm of adieus spoken in a 4dozen tongues. We are off for the land of the cannibal Kia Kias,the Isle of Vanishing Men. As the ship gathers way, Amboina, spice-scented Ambon, drops into the mists of the morning and we look around the deck for company. We are alone. Then we remember the information given us by the First Officer yesterday. We are the only first-cabin passengers on board, this trip. Few people find their way to the Isle of Vanishing Men.

One steamer a month carries to them the things they need and the mail from home. ......Buy Now (To Read More)
