MALAY PIRATES
Slugapore is agitated jast now by a taid of piracy, one of the old sort; legendary now. Some few weeks ago a Chinese junk was bourd. ed near Johore-that in, within sight of the island, if not of the city-and seven men were killed, besides the captain, spared for torture until he surrendered his valuables. Police, b'uejackets, and volunteers are searching for the miscreants. Perhaps there is no case on record to outrageous within such a trifling distance from the man-of-war in Singapore Roads, but elsewhere in those seas it would not have been remarkable less than fifty years

The judicious reader instantly replies that trade must have come to an end promptly under this.it. cties. But the ruffians did not depend on plunder. It was welcome, but bey sought slaves-and blood. Iaexplicable as it seems to us, the parompaks, though mostly Moh mmadaos, regarded their employment as a calling or profession to which they were born. With no thought of "wrong-doing," ap- parently, they mordered harmless fishermen sailors, or peasants dwelling oa the shore, if too old or feeble to be wanh transport, and torage.

The Babaigi came from Sulu; in fact, that was a piratical name for the islanders, otherwise called Solus.
