Cabbages and Kings

By: Henry, O.

It is characteristic of this buoyant people that they pursue no man beyond the grave. "Let God be his judge "-Even with the hundred thousand unfound, though greatly coveted, the hue and cry went no further than that.To the stranger or the guest the people of Coralio will relate the story of the tragic end of their former president; how he strove to escape from the country with the public funds and also with Do a Isabel Guilbert, the young American opera singer; and how, being apprehended by members of the opposing political party in Coralio, he shot himself through the head rather than give up the funds, and, in consequence, the Se orita Guilbert. They will relate further that Do a Isabel, her adventurous bark of fortune shoaled by the simultaneous loss of her distinguished admirer and the souvenir hundred thousand, dropped anchor on this stagnant coast, awaiting a rising tide.
