Leslie Davis Tells of Experi ence With Portugese Mrs. W. J. Davis recently re ceived a letter from her son, Les lie, who is now midshipman on the U. S, battleship Cleveland, letter was written while at sea and he tells of a severe storm encount ered, during which nearly every one were sick, including himself. In speaking of foreigners and what they think of Americans he said: The "We were in a town called Horta (Tyal Island, Azores) which has about 10,000 population, who are mostly Portugese and speak the Portugese language. They do not try to heat Americans as much as those at Funchal, hut they are like most all other foreigners in that when they see the smoke of an 'Ameri cano' on tne horizon the prices of every thing go up. That is the fault of being an American, all foreigners think yon a millionaire and treat you accordingly by ask ing prices that are at least eight times their regular price. Wine is 12$ cents a quart if a Portugese buys it but a dollar (peso) if an 'Americano' gets it. On the whole this cruise is not as bad or so hard as last year's, the reason being that we are now second class and the third class have to do the work did last year. We have steamed about 7000 miles already and the cruise is not half over." Mr. and Mrs. Davis expect their son home for a short visit the first of next month. we 9 Tfce Pottery Tree mt Para.
