Satyr Hunts

THE ISLAND OF CAPTAIN SPARROW--S. Fowler Wright--Cosmopolitan ($2.00). Young Foyle is cast upon an imaginary mid-Pacific island--not to found the new social order, but to encounter thrilling adventures among relics of four races: satyrs who mate with human beings, ruka-birds of uncanny intelligence, high-minded followers of the Priest of Gir, and the low-born descendants of a pirate crew. Satyr hunts, cannibalistic orgies, hair-raising escapes are in order. But Author Wright will rather be remembered for the swift ingenuity of his unique Deluge.
