INDIANS AS SEAMEN.
ENTHUSIASTIC ANGLERS. Both the steamers, Lepanto and City of Winchester, which are at. present at the Bluff, carry Indian crews. An interesting feature is that in accordance with their religion, they cat meat only which has been killed and prepared by themselves, consequently a supply of livestock to meet their needs is kept aboard. They arc inveterate disciples of Isaak Walton in a marine sense, and it was interesting to note tho number of lines cast over tho side during tho lunch hour. They arc also experts at the game, if one could judge from their practiced work with hook and line.
