ton, as we'll THAT for the cessation Of

HE v THE GIRL.
An Adventure With the Canniba1s of
the Solomon Islands.

n day, on a Solomon beach, a little
girl ran to me and. before l was aware
of it, placed my foot on her neck. One
knows what this means we'll enough.
In hot war it means that if a chief al
lows his foo to rest on the defeated
ones neck the mans life is safe, but he
is a slave forever, rescue or no rescue.
l was puzzled at the child'S action. 1t
was soon explained. Shortly afterward
down came a lot of Wills gers and in
sisted on taking h youngster. 1 told
them what she had done. They said
they did not care. Her mother was
being cooked in he town, and the
child should go to the ovens with her.
"Neverv"Isa said. What! We who have
eaten betel nut together many times, to
quarrel for a mere child, to whom 1
have granted life in your OWL way!" I
swore they should kill me first. They
replied:
"Oh, that is an easy thing to do"
A bold front was the only thing now.
Luckily, l had my Is shooter. Spring
ing back and putting a mark on the
sane with my foot, l swore l would
shoot h first man who crossed it. AS
l said before, the natives do not care to
face an armed white in the open. They
knew l could answer for a dozen of
them or so, and, although clubs were
up and bows bent, they hesitated, as
we'll they might, and 1 knew l had
mastered them. Then one proposed 1
should buy the child fairly; they cared
not to fight a friend. To this l at once
agreed, and a muss was thus avoided,
and a mission AK, worth tenpence,
made me Il slave owner. Tell it not in

Iron In Arizona.

"Some people say there is no iron to
speak of in Arizona but / can show them
mountains of it" said Charles Rampf,
q we'll knOwn mining man, who has just
retur ned from a prospecting tour in
tb at territory, 'apd, although it can't
be mined at q profit now, there is q day
coming when there will be q demand
for it.
1.-THE iron cannot be mined aud
shipped to distant furnaces but the day
is coming en- the furnaces will come
to the iron. Cheap fuel is the first ne
cessity for handling the iron deposits
OF Arizona. The construction of the
Nicsraguan canal would result In
cheaper fuel for US, or who knows but
what some day rich coal fields will be
discovered lei home? When cheap
fuel a be secured, Arizona iron mines
will be in demand and when needed
they will, like Arizona gold mines, be
forthcoming. All that ls necessary is
q way to produce it chesp enough to be
used at home in com petition with the
product of the east which Is shipped
here at great freight expense. Arizo-
ma is destined to become a great state
and will use enough iron to make her
iron mining one of the greatest in
dustries of the south west, hence the
expectation of Arizona iron will not be
necessary to create a demand for it,"
Mr.. Rampf owns gold and silver
minesin the Magazine district, near
Phoenix and says that although it has
been pretty dry In that section, they
have sufficient water for mining pur
poses. He Is proud of his mines and
says he has one which is alone rich
enough to pay off the national debt,
but at present he hasn't the means to
develop it. He is hammeriug away the
best he can with his limited resources
and expect to soon be able to properly
develop all his claims.
