The Ely miner. [volume] (Ely, Minn.) 1895-1986, 1906-01-19

girl gave herself over to a fit OF hope
lessness But after a week of living on
the drowned fowls and sea biscuit Liela
suddenly aroused herself and deter
mined to live. Young, strong, athletic
full of life, she rallied from the shock
and the despair and set to work.
Her first care was for food, and she
began to set snares for turtles, and
from the .cordage that had come ashore
she began to knot together seine with
which to catch fish in the lagoon be-
tween the island and the reef.
Also from her scant supply of pins and
hairpins she fashioned little hooks that
she set to catch gulls
Burns Seaweed as Signal.
For nearly three weeks she lived with
out fire. Again and again she tried to
make fire by rubbing sticks together,
as she had heard of savages doing, but
she failed, and she was in despair. Eat
ing raw fish and chewing on the roots of
unknown plants that she found began
to pail upon her, and she determined
to have fire at any cost. She hunted the
island over for stones that would make
sparks when she struck them together,
and finally on the beach she found two
large pieces of flint. 1t took two days
for her to set fire to little bunch of
dried, cottonlike pulp from weed she
found, and then she blew and famed it
into fame and fed it constantly.
The evening that she got fire she was
happy, and she declares that she be-
lieved her battle won. Wood was scarce,
but she resorted to dragging seaweed
from the lagoon and leaving it to dry
on the beach, and over the burning sea-
weed she piled wet seaweed and kept
a great smudge burning at the highest
point of the island.
Mons-the lion-kept her from be-
coming desperate from loneliness, but
after a month he became dangerous
The diet of raw fish and oysters and
pieces of sea gull did not suit him. And
then followed the widest adventure of
all.
Liela was sleeping. TWAS near morn
ing, for the stars were beginning to grow
dim and the roseate light was showing
in the east when the girl was awakened
by strange, suffocating sense of dan
ger. In an instant she was on her feet
Days before she had prepared a great
stick for use in defending herself, and,
grasping this, she backed into the corner
of her frail hut, ready to strike.
A moment later she recognized her
pet, and called him. An angry snarl
answered her, and the beast leaped.
The girl realized at once that the saw
age instincts of the brute had been
aroused, and that he had turned upon
her to kill and devour her. Like flash
she swung the club, and there, alone on
the island, thousands of miles from
friends, the two that had been friends
fought a duel to the death.
Battle with Pet Lion.
Again and again the maddened beast
leaped for the white throat of his mis-
tress, and each time was driven back
by blow, and finally, as her strength
was deserving her, Liela swung the club
with an effort born of despair and laid
the half grown cub senseless, and. be-
fore it could recover. she killed it. and
then sank down sobbing beside its
body
Her fasu rrIenu was gone, and she was
alone. So she sobbed until daylight, and
then with sharp stones she Skinned the
beast. and cooked part of it for her
breakfast
The Ely miner. [volume] (Ely, Minn.) 1895-1986, 1906-01-19

The story of Robinson Crusoe and
his .smarkable adventures is familiar
to almost every man, woman and child.
To prove the old saying that truth is
stranger than fiction this interesting
tale has been enacted by a handsome
young French girl, and if anything her
experiences were more remarkable
Cast away on an almost desert island
in the middle of the Indian ocean,
thrown on her own resources, Liela
Ponquet, pretty young trapeze per-
former, now about Is years of age,
lived for Is months before she was
picked up by passing vessel and
finally sent back to her home in
France
When she arrived at Marseilles she
was reunited with her father and
mother who for nearly two years she
had believed dead, and who believed she
had persisted when the little French
bark Lilly sank on December Is, 1903.
They had parted when the little vessel,
after brave fight with the typhool,
lurched and sank. They had seen her
lifted on wave, with life-preserver
clasped about her, and they had fought
with the sailors in the boat for a chance
to save their daughter. She had caught
one glimpse of them as she was buried
under a huge roller, and the boat was
lifted above her, and then they parted.
Nearly four days later the boat had
reached one of the Belep islands, off
New Caledonia, and after a day or two
of rest and preparation had crossed to
the larger island and reached safety.
An Acrobatic Family.
The Ponquet family father, mother
and daughter-were acrobats and ami
NAL trainers, and Ponquet, the father,
had for many years been the leader of a
little circus, sometimes with dozen or
more men in his employ, sometimes
with only the members of his family to
assist him in giving performances. His
Oldest son, promising acrobat, had
been killed at a fair in France by fall

SOLD HIS BONDS.
Now Senator Lodge Will Vote For a
Railway Rate Bill.

~e~tN OhAa
Senator Lodge, of Massachusetts,.
sold his railroad bonds so that he could
consider the rate bill without being in
iuenced by his investment
After studying the question a long
time, the Senator stated in a speech
last week that he intended to vote
giving the Interstate Commerce Com
mission power TO fix maximum rates
when existing rates appear to be un-
reasonable. He is opposed to taking
away from the railroads the right to
appeal to the courts. He has grave
doubts as to the wisdom of Government
rate making even in the most limited
form, but he is going to vote for it any
way.
The late Major J. B. Peck, who some
years ago was a we'll known railroad
manager in the South, used to tell a
story about two Southern Congress
men, Col. Nat Hammond of Georgia
and Col. Sam Dibble of South Carolina.
They were both able and honest men.
When the original Interstate Com
merce bill was pending in Congress,
Maj. Peck met Col. Hammond one day
and asked him what he thought of the
bill.
Il do not understand it, l do not
know what the effect will be. but am
going to vote for it," said Colonel
Hammond.
Shortly after that, Major Peck met
Colonel Diddle and asked him the same
question.
Il do not understand that bill.
cannot foresee what the results will be
and l shall vote against it," said Col
Diddle.
Senator Lodge said in his speech:
Legislation cannot prevent an ap-
peal to the courts if 1t is alleged that
the rate is confiscatory but this is a
very narrow ground and very limited
right. A rate may not be absolutely con-
tlscatory and yet may be in the highest
degree unjust and unreasonable, and
indeed we'll nigh ruinous. l am not
sure that it would be possible to de-
prive citizen by legislation of the
right to appeal to the Courts as to the
justice and reasonableness of given
rate, which is purely a judicial ques.
ton. But no attempt ought to be
made, either directly or indirectly, by
silence or assertion, to destroy this
privilege or rather, this right. If de-
lays are feared, it is easy to make ar
engagements by law which will compel
the swift disposition of these railroad
cases. If it Is a question as to main
tanning rate pending an appeal, either
by bonds or by paying the money into
court loss to the party successful in the
suit can be prevented by requiring the
roads to give bond"

BURNING ISSUES OF THE CAM.
PAIGN.

Judging from the speeches that
are being made by some of the
candidates for governor, one
would conclude that the main
issues in the race are as follows !:
1st. Is Tom Watson Tom Wat
son?
2nd. Should Georgia pass a law
prohibiting railroads from doing
business in the State and return
to the old wagon ways on dirt
roads?
Sd. To whom does the Piedmont
bar belong?
4th. Is there any way of re-
deeming the State from negro
rule, who are now Tin horny con-
trolling every branch of the State
government?
9Th. Did any candidates great
grand father on his mothers sis
ter's side who was related to any,
body either by affinity or consan-
guinity in the 9TH degree ever
steal sheep?
9th. Should the candidate die
tate the rules for the primary
election and mandamus the State
executive committee and make
them sign or should they just run
III conformity to the rules the
committee makes?
Oh my! What burning issues i

FIRE MEN OF SIERRA
OPEN PART OF CARGO
THEY BREAK OPEN CASES OF
LIQUOR AND THE RINGLEADERS
ARE PLACED IN IRONS.

SAN FRANCISCO, March 2O.-Msn
in the Oceanic liner Sierra, arriving
yesterday afternoon from Australia,
were in great trouble while the steam
er was in the South Seas. At the port
of Sydney, on Washingtons birthday,
the twenty-four firemen refused to do
duty because of the American holiday
and as a result it was necessary to
work night and day in order to get
the liner ready for service on her long
run across the Pacific from the Anti.
podes. Mechanics who had not been
squeamish worked overtime to get the
liner out of Sydney on the scheduled
date.
After the Sierra left Sydney these
firemen continued their Independent
acts, and some of them broke the pad
locks of the ships storeroom and took
charge of at least a dozen cases of
liquor, which were consumed, with the
usual result. Three or four of the
'ringleaders were arrested by the
ships officers and placed in irons, but
were released before this city was
reached. These men will, however be
held for examination here on the
charge of broaching the cargo, and an
endeavor will be made to make an ex-
ample of them.

A royal princess, King Edwards
niece, has fallen so desperately in love
with an immensely wealthy young
nobleman that she is ready to renounce
rank, title and precedence to make him
her lord.
Princess Victoria Patricia, of Con-
naught, so the story runs, became in
fatuated with the young Marquis of
Anglesey whom she met at Princess
Eva of Battenbergs' coming-out ball
in London last year. Princess Pa
tricia, who will be twenty years old
next st. Patrick's Day, is the younger
daughter of King Edwards only living
brother.
come of age next April, will have an
income of $75O,OOO year.
For a while the Marquis paid the
Princess marked attention. Then he
fell deeply in love with Lady Ivy Cor
don-Lennox only daughter of Lord AL
gernOn Gordon-Lennox.
Princess Patricias affection for the
Marquis being unmistakable, her fam
lily made most discreet overtures to
him.
Anglesey tried to extricate himself
by intimating that he did not wish to
occupy the nondescript position of hus-
band of royal princess. 1t was then
that Patricia declared that as a prin-
cess she is miserable and can be happy
only as the Marchioness of Angle sey.
And now ,Angle sey's friends say the
Connaughts have let him know that
the engagement to the princess would
be announced becomingly in his twen-
ty-first birthday.
But even royal princesses must some
times pine and be consumed by unre-
Quilted love. In Queen Victoria's time
the Marquis of Harrington, now the
Duke of Devonshire, was marked to
marry Princess Louise, now Duchess
of Argyle Harrington promptly took
a two-year's tour of the world.
