put the matter off until April Z, when he
will surely build it. He is now waiting
for his papers from the land office at
Washington.
The island, as it now stands, is an eX-
ceedingly dreary looking place, and is
rented of Mr.. Hill by G. M. Douglass as
atwood yard. Short pine wood is piled
all over it, and scattered around in the
roadway and on the shore. There are
two buildings, beside Mr.. Callaghan'S
residence on the island. One is an old
store house near the lower end, formerly
used by the Boom company. The other
is small one-story building, 12x12, with
the words s'weod and cOaF' painted
on it in white letters, which can be
seen from the east shore. This office
which stands near the end of the
bridge, is really quite an ornament to
the island, and would give a stranger
Gf he could not see the rest of the is
land an idea that there was a settle
ment there. Three big trees grace the
island, and at the upper end is clump
of willows, small, to be sure, but still
willows. One or two logs lie along the
shore, and could a person not see the
city from the island, he could we'll
Imagine himself far from any human
habitation. Mr.. Callaghan feels quite
sanguine of getting possession OF the
island. and says that when he does he is
going to invite his friends over and give
them a banquet such as will be remem-
bered in years to come.

Patrick made his way to this desert
island, and having set his feet upon its
virgin soil, declared himself monarch
of all he surveyed, and king of the
island. The Savages, better known as
workmen, engaged in carting away some
of the wood which C. M. Douglass has
piled ON the island, were amazed
at the mans presumption, and laughed
the claim to Scorn. But Pat
stuck to it that he was, or soon would
be, the owner, and proceeded to cart
over lumber for his house. But the
weather was too cold to do any build
ing, and so the castaway proceeded to
make himself house between two piles
of slabs. OF course it was not such a
house as young husband would care
to take his blushing bride to, but still it
was a house. AS the days went Oh Pat
found other things to do, and decided
to postpone the building of the house
until he had more spare time. Pat
worked around at his slab house, filling
in chink here and knocking out
piece OF slab there, and making a sort
of a floor, until the place would keep out
the snow and shelter him from the cold
which swept down the river, and blew
the kings beautiful red whiskers back
from his handsome chin.
Three or four days of this sort of thing
caused Pat to think that beng a cast
way was not so much fun as the books
pictured it, and so he HE'D himself to
hardware store and purchased small
sheet-irOn stove, which he sat up in his
mansion. Next, bedding was procured,
and pat was as comfortably fixed as a

CREATING A FASHION.
After explaining all this Werfh told
his American customer that it was in
this studio of his that the fashionsreally
had their birth. II never force any
thing on the public" he said, s'but l
educate them. When l make up my
mind to introduce a certain fashion
give myself three years time to make it
the rage. For example, for the last two
years l have been introducing the
styles. Look in the shop windows and.
see what the manufacturers are weav-s
ing and the tradesmen .Selling-are they
not for the greater part pompadour5
designs? Well, in one year more they
will be the rage, and it will last for;
another twelve months or so, and then
I shall slowly but certainly begin some
thing new.''

man could wish to be. True, his house
was not large enough to stand upright
in, but this did not worry Mr.. Callahgan,
for when night came he crawled in and
never sat up again until morning,
when he had to creep out again
to do this. AS his business took him
away part of the day, Pat issued an at
tachment for his twelve-year-o son,
his family being away, to come and keep
guard over the premises during the day
time. AS the ease stands now Pat and
his son sleep in the house every night,
and the son keeps house during the
day, and takes his meals there, while
Pat hustles around in the city for evil
dence and meat. The slab house is the
scene of many a comical joke, and Pat
declares he is just as well satisfied there
as he would be in Jim Hills house.
Some days ago Pat got all ready to build
his house, and in fact nailed two Of the

A Visit to the Historic Island

The Monarch of All He Sur
Eeys, and His Claim to the
g River Island.
What His Claim Is and What
% the Island Really
@.9' Amounts To.
King Callaghan. of Boom Island!

King Callaghan, of Boom Island!
That sounds very grand, and calls to
mind the picture of fair island. out in
the sea, governed by a tall and stately
ruler, with hundreds of loyal subjects
at his command. The gentle breezes,
which watt themselves over the fertile
spot, are laden with the Odor of roses
and Sweet-smelling herbs, while the
ground is purple with the millions of
violets which grow in such profusion.
But how different is the real Boom
Island.
Boom Island lies near the east shore
of the Mississippi river, a few rods
above Nicollet island, and is tract of
land some ten acres in size, connected
with the mainland by small bridge.
The breezes which blow over the island
are heavily laden with odors from the
paper mill and soap factory, and the
smell of decaying pine wood. Instead
of violets on the ground, piles of pine
wood and slabs cover almost the entire
island, and the loyal subjects of the
king are represented by solid Scandina-
Wan WOrkmen and horses buSily en-
gagged in removing some OF the wood.
This island was settled upon and pre-
empted by one Hiram Saunders, away
back in the 4O's, when Minneapolis was
not much of city. AS time wore on,
Mr.. Saunders became so engroSSed in
other matters that he neglected to make
final proof ON his Land. Finally,
when the Mississippi and Rum River
Boom company began active operations
in Minneapolis, the management de-
cided that this island was necessary in
their business, and so purchased
it from Mr.. Saunders. Later on it
passed into the hands of the
st. Anthony Water Power company, and
of the Manitoba road, who now claims
the island. But his claim is disputed
by Patrick Callaghan, an ex-deputy
sheriff, who discovered the flaw in the
title one day last summer while at the
court house. Pat kept his knowledge
to himself, and rushing around went to
the land office at Taylor's Falls, and
homesteaded the land much to the dis
gust of Hon. Mr.. Hill, who is not aware
that there was any flaw in his title. But
Pat has settled Oh the land and says he
means to hold it until the end. He is
now waiting for Mr.. Hill to take the ag-
gresive, and begin suit of ejectment.
Every school boy has read Robinson
Crusoe and Alexander Selkirk and the
Swiss Family Robinson, and knows
from reading those books how persons
cast away on al uninhabited island live
and become wealthy. In after years
some novelist will write book entitled
s'King Callaghan of Boom Island,' de-
failing how Pat was cast away on Boom
island, and how he finally become owner
of the place. and at last sold out for
about .S15OOOO, and removed with his
family to a more civilized portion of the
city. One cold morning last winter
