Queer People on a Fertile Japanese Island

Queer People on a Fertile Japanese Island
From the Japan "Gazette:" Molina, a
small island about five miles from Mata'
cerie, has about 800 inhabitants who live
in a most primitive manner. Not more
than one.sixth till the soil, the others being
fishermen, and although the island is very
fertile the people draw their supplies OF rice,
wheat, ETC., from the mainland. Azaleas
are extremely plentiful, all the hillsides
being covered with them-in fact in olden
times the place was known as Azalea island
There are neither horses nor dogs on the
island, and consequently the children, when
shown a picture Of one Of these animals,
mistake it for a COW. The young people
pass the time dancing and amusing them
selves, and are without care. Quarrels are
rare, and when they do happen the offender
makes his a by smashing an earthen'
ware pot in front OF the injured party by
way OF apology.

A Land Contest on Bear Greek.

United States Land Register Grover is
engaged in hearing the case OF William
Wolf vs.. Wilkins C. Mcdowell. The land
In controversy lies on Bear creek, near its
mouth, where it empties into Tongue river
and about sixty miles from Helena. The
land was acquired from squatter grantors
who took it up before it was surveyed by
the government. The lines from which the
lands were laid off were not the lines which
were fixed upon by the government survey,
and as the contestants are adjoining own
ers, there are doubts about the respective
ownership Of the lands. The case will
probably consume several days. strevei

AFFAIRS OF SAMOA.
The Report Confirmed that King Malie-
t0a Is too Ill to Reign.

Among the passengers who arrived at San
Francisco on the steamer Zealandia Saturday
from Australia via Samoa was Lieut. W. d.
Rose of the United States store ship Mononga-
hela, now stationed at Pago Pago. He reports
the United States steamer Adams had not ar
rived at Samoa when the Zealandia left there,
on the 18th ultimo, but she was expected every
day. 1t was on this account that Admiral Kim
berly did not leaye for San Francisco Oh the
Zealandia. He expects to return next month.
King Maietoa and several chiefs, who we're
deported with him by the Germans two years
ago, arrived at Apia from Marshall Islands on
the German gun boat Wolff a few days ago,
before the Zealandia arrived at Samoa. Maize
toa's return was made the occasion of general
rejoicing by the natives. His health is re-
ported to be broken down, owing to his long
exile, and he will not attempt to resume con-
troll Of affairs for the present. Mataafa viii.
still continue in Office. The political situation
on the islands remain quiet. The natives are
also recovering from the famine. The Monon-
gahela distributed among them $1,000 pounds
of bread and large quantities OF rice and other
provisions.

WANTS TO SEE THE BABY.
Mrs. Robert Ray Hamilton's Request
Mary Donnelly Improving.

Yesterday passed very quietly at Noll cottage
at Atlantic City. Outside, however thousands
OF curious people passed, looking for the
scene of the Hamilton-D onnelly fracas, but as
the signboards had been removed their curl
osity was unrewarded. About 10 o'clock tele-
gram was received from Mrs. Hamilton, at
Mays Landing Jail, expressing an urgent de-
sire to see Baby Hamilton. Even had it been
possible to grant this request there were no
trains to that point to carry the child to its
mother. Mr.. Hamilton had not returned to
Atlantic City. Counsel Perry left on late
train for the purpose, it is said, of consulting
with New York attorneys engaged by Mr.. Ham
llton. He will not return before Tuesday If
bail for Mrs. Hamilton is accepted she will
probably not be released before Wednesday.
DIR. Crosby stated last evening that Mrs.
Donnelly continues to improve. The stitches
were removed from the wound yesterday and
it is healing rapidly. If it is necessary to give
second certificate as to the woman's condi-
ton, the doctor asserts that he can, in less than
forty-eight hours, pronounce his patient en-
tlrely out of danger.

of the most prominent dentists there, was mar
ried last Thursday at Saulte Ste Marie, Ont,

abandoned and the two were quietly married
1t might be added that the English peerage
contains nc family of the name of Schief bear
