MODERN CRIrSOES-

A stirring story Of three months spent on an uninhabited island by the shipwrecked crew and passengers of the bark Anjou (2,069 tons), consisting of nearly forty persons, was told by the captain on the arrival of the liner Ernest simons at MarseiIles lately.
 The Anjou, while on a voyage from Sydney to Falmouth, was wrecked on one of the Auckland group in the Pa cific.
 The captain stated that they left Sydney on January 20, and during a thick fog and rough weather on Feb ruary i the ship struck on a reef. The masts fell and smashed some of the
 boats, and there was considerable
 panic on board. Fortunately, all es- capped in the boats that remained, but
 many were only partially dressed,
 After terrible experience in a heavy
 gale, they reached the shore the fol-
 lowing afternoon and landed.
 ''Half-dressed and many wounded,
 we looked like a band of phantoms
 marching to the conquest of an infer
 nal island" said the captain. A big
 fire was lighted, and sea birds attract ed by 1t were captured and eaten. The party started to explore the island, and three days later discovered shel-
 ter, showing that shipwrecked people had been there before. On the fol-
 lowing days they killed number of albatrosses and caught a quantity of shellfish, on which they subsisted. A small nlan eaten. As a chance of making their which were caught alive were again set free with cards tied round their necks, stating in French and English the position of the shopWrecked peo- pie.
 Later, in the interior of the island. they found some wild sheep, and es- tablished a sort of fold in which to keep the animals for use as necessary. Boots were made of pieces of wood and sheepskin, and the skins were ] also used for clothing. A signal of distress was hoisted on the highest point of the island to attract the at, tention of shipping.
 "New Robinson Crusoes, we were living an extraordinary life, fishing hunting, getting our food sometimes
 in a cave, sometimes on a rock &C., cording to the weather, and sleeping
 where we could" said the captain
 "A great deal of the weather was very bad while we were on the island" On May ', after they had been on the is- l land over three months, the New Zea- 1 land government steamer Hinomoa l rescued them. This vessel had on board two daughters of MT. Mills, the

Y. M. c. A. RESTAURANT CLOSED
 TEMPORARILY.

Oscar Schreiber, who has had lease of the Y. M. c. A. restaurant since the middle of January, notified the officers that he would be obliged to close last Saturday morning, as the trade had dropped off during the summer and he could not advance sufficient to keep up expenses.
 Only recently Mir. Schreiber opened a model. lunch room on the ground floor with the intention of reaching a much larger number of those who want quick service, and has had a good trade.
 Owing to the failure three creditors attached the lunch room, but this was quickly adjusted and the property has been transferred. MT. Schreiber is ad- iusting his business as best he can with limited capital, and will leave for the country to take much-needed rest in a few days, but will return in week or ten days.
 There are other parties considering & lease, and, with the forty-eight addi- tional dormitories, there seems to be a very favorable opportunity for leasing the restaurant again, but it will un- uOuDlGUiy UC ClOSeu IIOW ullIll OSpLGItl~ Der 1.
 The only stipulation made in the lease by the association is that intoxicating liquors shall not be stld, and the man. ager has received help from the asso- citation through it's officers and mem- bers.
 MT. Schreiber was well liked and worked hard to make his undertaking successful. He was formerly connected with the Hof-Brau and has many friends in the city.
 Since the restaurant was first opened the trade has increased and it is be- coming better known and more popu- lar. The breakfast trade has been small on account of the limited number of men rooming in the building, but now that the new dormitories are al- most ready it will increase the number to about eighty and make the restau- rant more desirable.
