tains gradually recede from one another
until at the fea, whero they end in
perpendicular cliffs. The ravine Is
$50 feet broad. The triangular space
is abont one and a quarter miles long,
and is defended by Notifications at the
entrance of the ravine. Ladder Hill
gets its name from the steep wooden
steps known as Jacobs Ladder, which
lead directly to it's summit, 600 feet IN
height.
One of the chief objects Of interest
in st. Helena is the house at Long
wood in which Napoleon passed his
captivity. The plateau of I'ongwood
is about 1000 feet above the level OF
the sea and bounded by de6p rayines.
It is on the Rupert Hill side of the
ravine in which Jamestown is built.
Here are the long, low buildings i'll
which Napoleon lived and the new
houses which be did not live to oc-
cupy. Hero also is Marshal Betrand's
cottage. Napoleon's tomb Is in Slane's
valley, about a mile from Iongwood
But the body was removed to France
In a man-of-war by tho Prince de
Joinville in 1910, and now lies under
the dome cf the Hotel des Invalldes
In Paris.
Perhaps the taking of General
Cronje and his men to st. Helena
would restore to it some of its former
prosperity. For some years the island
has been getting deeper and deeper
into financial straits, and the Popula-
ton has been steadily diminishing.
In 1871 the inhabitants numbered
e,444; ten years later the population
was 5,059, while by the census of 1919
IT was only 4,116, including tie garri-
son. According to the "Statesman's
Year Book" there are only about one
hundred births year and about sew
enty five deaths. However, about two
hundred persons annually emigrate to
the United States and to South Africa.
