PINE ISLANDERS
FROM NORTHWEST
Many from Wisconsin, Minnesota
and South Dakota Inter-
ested in Island.
BY w. w. Jermane.

Washington, March 23.-On the face
of documents furnished the senate, the
American residents, and such Americans
as are interested in the Isle of Pines,
went there originally from four or five
northwestern states. The bulk Of them
claim their American residences in Min
nesota, Wisconsin. Michigan and Iowa,
and there is small sprinkling of names
of former residents Of North and South
Dakota. One company, it is under
stood, was financed largely by people
residing in western Pennsylvania, most
ly in Pittsburg, and this fact caused
Senator Pcnrose to take an active part
in the opposition to the ratification of
the treaty turning the island over to
the Cuban government.
The senate has just made public a
confidential publication Of the names of
all Americans owning property on the
Isle of Pines. The greatest number are
from Wisconsin. From Michigan
chiefly the northern peninsula, there
come a smaller number, and Minnesota
is third in point of numbers. Follow.
ing is list Of the names of Isle of
Pines property holders and residents
claiming legal residence in Minnesota
Wisconsin and the Dakotas. Of course
not all the people named have taken
up their residence on the island:

THE
BEWITCHED
BUTTE.

By S. Il. CRAWFORD.

"At the time | was in the en-
ployment of the Anglo-Afriean Com
pany, Limited said Randall, II was
strapping young fellow, whose princi
pal aim in life was to crowd it full of
adventures. 1 haven't shrunk much
since, as you can see, but quiet ex-
istence is all I want now. To sit on
this veranda with the Florida News
and watch my pineapples redden and
listen to the mocking birds gurgle from
the magnolias-t seems to me suf-
dcient and worth while.
II told you, think, how the blacks
attacked us and we blew up the sta
ton as farewell salvo over the grave
Of the ivory business in that particu-
lar section. That was lurid end to
a,well-colored epoch in my life.
"There were dull stretches at the sta
ton, of course. But sudden and queer
experiences would come to us; all we
had to do was to sit and wait sufficient
ly long. And sometimes-in the pur-
suit of business-I hunted them up my
self
s"Fletcher's speaking Of mOuntain-
lions just. now recalls an old adventure
Of mine. One time made trip into
the back country, straight away from
the coast, for five racking weeks. I
held confab with four grim chiefs, and
had some hunting experiences in be-
tween; but the particular incident I'm
going to speak of happened at the end
Of my official tour, when I had turned
aside for bit of shooting.
'sThe place where we pitched camp
was at the endge of plain. Grass;
about as tall as wheat covered it, and
shook in the wind with play of high
and low lights that reminded one of
the dimpling of the sea. And the bles-
boks feeding in it were like do1phins;
you could just see their purple backs
rounding above the trembling expanse.
Away off-far out to sea, was go
Ing to say-a rocky island of a butte
lifted it's silvery gray head, the one
rugged feature in the landscape. My
blacks used to sweep their eyes across
It with shudder. They said it was
haunted by tribe of witch things.
| 81 had been curious to see the place
before, and that suggestion Of the un-
canny set me off. Only one of my men
would go with me, and he walked as
Il he were going to the gallows.
"Yet the butte looked naked and
commonplace in the fierce downpour of
the morning sunlight. A CULVER Of air,
such as you see over a hot stove, hung
above it's top If there were any
witches there they must have had sala-
mander blood in their veins
"a large ring of desolate ground sur
rounded the butte, formed by the sandy
earth and coarse rock-dust that the
winds had swept from it's naked shoul-

VENICE

A number of good sales have been
made the past week in and around
Venice, and at the present time a great
deal of attention is being attracted
toward the Venice Gateway tract. This
tract consists of fifty-five acres, sub
divided into 374 choice lots The prop
erty is on the Los Angeles-Pacific short
line thirty minutes ride from Los An
geles and only about two minutes ride
from the ocean front. The property
has three stations where the cars stop.
Fredericks, Occur d'Alene and the
junction. The st. Marks boulevard of
120 feet in width parallels the Los An
geles- Pacific tracks through this tract
to the ocean. The lots are all of good
size, 40x12O feet. situated about twen-
ty feet above sea level and on a high,
sloping mesa, Immediately adjoining
Venice. About $4,000 square feet of
cement sidewalks have been put down
and from $1,000 to $4,000 lineal feet of
curbing has been installed Over five
hundred Washington Robusta palms
have been planted along the streets
and about as many acacia trees, thus
giving very attractive appearance,
as well as affording plenty of shade.
The streets are all graded and oiled,
in fact, higher price being paid for
this particular work, so as to give it
a macadam finish that is usually paid
for regular street work, a coat of de-
composed granite having been worked
in with the oil, so as to make the
streets lasting.
The most complete and up-to-date
sewer system on the coast has been
installed, and, in fact. in every detail
NJ. J. Nolan has never spared expense
in procuring the best work. Alto

EMPIRE BUILDERS
A NEW COMPANY
STIRRING NOVELTY IN REAL
ESTATE BUSINESS
Folsom Bros. Company of Los Angeles,
San Diego and San Francisco,
With 12o Well-knoWn Mer.
chants as Shareholders

One of the remarkable business en-
terprises recently brought before the
public is the new Empire Builders
of the Pacific company, which has just
been launched in Los Angeles by n
group of energetic business men and
real estate operators.
While this company is a real estate
company for the buying, subdividing,
developing and selling of all classes of
real estate up and down the Pacific
coast and especially in Southern Cali
fornia and in and around Los Angeles,
it differs from other real estate COM
panies in the fact that instead of buy
ing and subdViding tracts of real eS-
tate in the usual way and then solicit
ing the public to buy lots, it solicits
the public at the very beginning to
become it's partner and join it in buy
ing these tracts and to share In the
profits from their subdividing and re-
selling. 1t achieves this by selling it's
shares to the general public and by
using the proceeds in the purchase and
development of choice properties.
It's object, as stated in its advertise
ments in opening it's stock to popular
subscription, Is to gain widespread good
will among the classes of people who
are most likely to become purchasers of
the properties it has for sale. To bet
ter achieve this wide influence it's
shares are made of small denomination
so as to be easily within reach of those
