Happy Norfolk Island.
A PACIFIC OCEAN ISLAND WHOSE PEO-
PIE LEAD AN L EXISTENCE.

In the Southern Pacific is a little is
land with Il few surrounding isletS.
which. if all accounts be true. comes
as near to Moere's utopia" or Ba-
cons "New Atlantis" as any place on
earth. Norfolk Island comprises
about 5000 acres OF land in all, which
are mainly divided up into farms OF
fifty acres each. and every rewly-nlar-
ried couple get one OF these farms us
Il wedding dowry. The government
simple. and is vested in three officials
"a chief magistrate and two council
lors-who are elected annually by the
people. tie Chief Magistrate being
responsible, and the medium OF COM
m%unication with the higher officials.
The three magistrates act under COM
missions bearing the great seal OF the
colony. issued by the Governor OF New
South Wales, who himself holds Il sep
arate authority as Governor of Nor
folk Island. The Governor has, in
fact, unlimited power, but holds IA
mild sway, allowing the islanders to
do much as they like so long as they
do not 90 too far. The laws are fe,e
and primitive and could be printed on
two sheets of foolscap nevertheless
they answer the purpose we'll, there
being no crime to speak of nor any
lookup or need Of one. There is no
revenue, except a Jew waits and strays
i'll the shape of small fines, etc, which
seldom amounts to much, but is is re-
sponsible for the signal masters salary
of $50 per annum, besides IL court
sweeper at So. The Chief Magistrates
salary is 1925, but up to last year it
was only $50 this, with the emolu-
ments paid to the colonial rgeon
chaplain, registrar and postmaster, is
paid out of the interest of a fund in
Sydney, which has been accommodating
for some years.
The imports include clothing, gro
c%eries, agricultural implements and
timber for building purposes; the ex-
ports, oil, wool, horses, sweet and
Irish potatoes, onions, bananas and
sometimes sheep. The oil and wool
go either to Auckland VI Sydney, the
latter port taking besides sweet pota-
toes and bananas, other produce, such
as horses, onions, Irish potatoes. etc.
The importation of liquor except for
medicinal purposes, is absolutely pro-
hibited: the law is strict and the peo-
pie care little for it there are no du-
ties, and consequently 10 c~ustomhouse
Or any other record kept, but the i'm
ports and exports together in Il favora-
BILE year would probably amount to
$4,000. The island has a population

A Bogus Draft Man.
For three weeks past O red faced and
rather genteel looking Englishman has
held forth in Ysnkton as ON agent fol
the Mutual Life Insurance company oil
New York. he sailed under the rather
common name of J. Robinson and
strangely enough he was o poor but
honest insurance monger. Two days
ego he disappeared, and now his history
q be written. j. Robinson appears to
be o fraud. He would be hard to des-
cribe, but he is very near sighted, and
that fact probably accounts for his
~rascality. His method of duping the
public is by securing cash on drafts
on fictitious peraons in England, where
he claims q dukedom OK a principality
He secured cash upon some OF. these
drafts from people in Yankton. He
came from somewh here to Omaha, where
his name was Fairchiid f. Robinson, and
after operating there until he was COM
PEELED to leave he vent to Sioux City.
There he was known as j. @. Robinson,
and there he caught q bank for $50 on
one of his drafts. From Sioux City he
came to Yankton, and here he has made
some progress in his wsy. John 7, III.
Pierce cashed. $40 worth OF draft for
him and had payment upon 1t refused
Robinson has gone to Sioux Falls.
