ON DEVILS ISLAND.
AsAILoR's ACCOUNT OF HIS VISIT 70
CAPTAIN DREYFus.

Life Of the Convict-He Cannot Go Any
where ON the Island without Two Guards
at His Hssls-Copiss Of His Letters Are
Forwarded and Originals Retained.
Karl Weinheber, cook Of the Neither
land steamship Andalusia, gives this
account of q visit to Devils Island:
The captain sent me to the island,
and while busy In the little kitchen
instructing q soldier In the mysteries
of broiling lamb chops and cooking
pork, had plenty Of opportunity to
question Captain Dreyfus' guards. The
men, who at first seemed disinclined to
speak, became quite loQuacious after
a while. He" was not SO ill-treated
as those in the world seemed to think;
"he" is not conhped; "he" can 90
everywhere on the island. OF course.
two men are alwayg at his heels. He"
gets up between and Z In the morning.
and his first breakfast consists Of a cup
of chocolate. II the weather is good
"he" goes for a walk soon afterward,
and winds up his promenade by a
bath.
But are you not afraid he might
swim away or commit suicide?" !
asked.
mot at ALL" said the soldiers, "for
q rope is fastened to both his wrists,
and the ends Of the rope are in the
hands Of the guard. After the bath
he takes his second breakfsst-butter.
bread, ham or eggs and bottle Of
beer. Then he goes in for study. He
reads and writes for several hours"
What kind of books has he got"
The soldiers looked at each other. Az
ter a while one of them said: He ID
only allowed to read technical works.
But he can write whatever he pleases."
Must he show you what he writes?"
mo; We read only the letters he
desires to have forwarded. These are
sent to the commander in Cayenne"
"And does the commander send them
OF as receiyed?"
mo; they are copied, and the orig
inals are retained at Cayenne"
What does he do besides reading
and writing?"
I'VE received permission from the
commander to play cards with the
prisoner, and he has become an in
veterate gambler. After dinner-he
has always soup, roast and dessert
about o'clock in the afternoon we
always play baccarat together"
What are the stakes?"
The soldier laughed. HE has not
got SOU, and there are probably not
three francs on the whole island. We
play for shells. The prisoner gets his
supper at in the evening-roast or
ham and bottle of beer. Soon after
ward he goes to bed. He is not al
lowed to have any light, you know.
Only the guard at the door keeps up
wood fire"
Is he allowed to smoker"
mo; that is I think he Is not, for
the commander does not furnish him
tobacco"
May I leave some cigars for him?"
The soldier did not answer. emp
tied my tobacco pouch and my cigar
case on the table. hope he got what
/ left for him.
As I was about to return to my ship,
I saw a man, followed by two soldiers,
approaching from the strand. Drey-
fus! He seemed to have heard Of my
presence, and measured me with Ques-
tioning looks. His lips moved, but he
did not speak. He is a middle-sized
man, cadaverous and of a yellow COM
plexion. His eyes are deep in their
sockets, he walks with stoop, and
his forehead is furrowed. He is grow
ing old rapidly, no doubt. -s

THE NEW DIVING SUIT,

men and the ankles connected by steel
rods. From the lower rings the heavy
leaden soles are suspended so that the
suit is practically in one solid unit.
The sleeves are similar to the trousers,
protected against pressure, but plant
and easily moved.
The great advantage Of this suit is
that the diver need not work under an
atmospheric pressure exceeding that on
the surface, for the escape of air Is
provided through a floating tube, the
valve Of which Is kept at any height
to suit the diver. The diver whose pho
tograph is reproduced in our picture
went to depth Of 1856 feet the first
time he tried the new suit and remain
ed below for 80 minutes. but felt as

Malay shark Hunting.

The Malays have peculiar way Of
hunting the shark. A man will remain
stationary on the water to invite at
tack. AS the creature rolls over to
bite, the willy Malay glides out Of his
way with few deft strokes Of the left
hand, while with the right he deliber-
ately plants a pointed skewer between
the open jaws of the expectant shark.
The result is simple, but surprising.

A NOVEL DIVERS SUIT.

Rigid Enough to Withstand Pressure, PLANT
Enough to Insure Freedom of Action.
A new diving suit, recently con-
structed by the Gordon Brothers, two
Australian engineers, is sufficiently
different from diving apparatus Of the
older type to deserve widespread in
terest.
The principal innovation consists In
the fact that the suit is all in one piece,
rigid enough to Withstand outside pres-
sure, while plant enough to insure
freedom Of action to the diver. The
suit consists of a metallic cuirass, COW
ering head and body down to the waist,
weighing alone over $50 pounds; at
tached to the cuirass Is pair Of spring
steel trousers, made in sections and pill
able, covered on the outside with

JAPAN IS SATISFIED.
Will No Longer Oppose Annex
alton or Hawaii.
AN AGREEMENT Is CONCLUDED.
Ut Grants Japs In the United States
Rights Accorded to Most Favored Ma
tions Mikado's subjects In Hawaii VIII
Have Similar Rights.

WASHINGTON, Feb. Japan has been
removed as an element i'll the opposition
to the contamination of the annexation
of the Hawaiian Islands by the Uniteo
States. This result has been attained
by the conclusion of an agreement be-
tween our government and that of ia
pan, as represented by Minister Toru
Hoshi.
The general scope of it is a recogni-
ton of the rights Of japanese III Ha-
waii to claim equal rights with Japa-
nese in the United States after the tax
ing effect OF the treaty with Japan, pro-
claimed i'll 1895.
This document goes into effect IN July
next year, and among other things it
confers upon japanese within the terri
tory of the United States all of the
rights accorded to the citizens Of the
most favored nation, which of course
carries with it rights of naturalization
and the exercise of the rights of fran
chise. Presuming that annexation is
effected, the japanese in Hawaii will in
1899 have the same rights as those in the
present limits of the United States.
All that remains to be fixed is the
status of the Japanese during the time
0nat must eldpSe DeGWeeH tne Idtln-
cation of the annexation treaty and the
beginning of the operation of the Japan
ese treaty of 1899. Inasmuch as the
pending annexation treaty provides for
the appointment of a commission to
visit the islands and prepare such legis-
lation as may be necessary to consum-
mate the amalgamation of the terri
tories, this last question can easily be
adjusted along with other details in the
bill to be reported to congress.
