Menier has so willed II.
one Of the fads Of the so called king
of Anticosti" was the establishment OF
the most extensive game preserve IN
the world. To this end his agents be-
gan negotiations with all the noted
hunters in Canada and trappers In the
Northwest Territory. AS n result, the
island fairly swarIns with fur bearing
animals of all kinds. Red deer, caribou
and moose have been set free in the
densey wooded interior, and the ma
tive brown bears have multiplied great
ly. The beaver. the otter and the red
fox have become plentiful. one of the
features of the preserve is a fox park
twenty acres in extent and surrounded
by wire Enclosure twenty. feet in
height.
The waters in the vicinity OF the is
land abound with cod, herring and
mackerel and NJ Menier has establish
ed facilities for turning this natural
product to commercial account. The
best Holsters to be found in American
waters are absurdly plentiful. and the
revenue from this source alone Is al
ready very large. large portion or
the island Is covered with forest
growth admirably adapted to tho
manufacture of pulp, and the enter
prising owner has made arrangements
to build one of the largest pulp mills
| in existence. NJ. Menier has demon
strated during the twelve years OF his
sovereignty that, instead of being the
barren waste of the old text books,
Anticosti is actually surfeited with
natural wealth.

reputation as we'll as n great fortune.
Long the leading manufacturer OF
chocolate in Europe he was much
more than that he was an arctic ex-
plorer who had contributed valuable
knowledge to science, and he was
known all over the civilized world as
an intrepid lover of adventure. Any
thing that he undertook inspired in
terest and curiosity, For that reason
his purchase OF Anticosti became a
subject of much speculation. From its
position at the mouth of the great river
the island could II fortified, control
the navigation OF the st. Lawrence and
its tributaries. IT began to be whis-
pered that the purchase had been made
in the interest OF the French govern
ment. 1t was regarded by many Cana
dams as q matter demanding inter-
national inquiry, Viewed specifically
the transaction had an ominous look.
NJ. Menier could afford to keep silent
and enjoy this international uneasiness
| and he did. He proceeded without de-
Law to develop his principality. 1t Is
not likely that he had any idea at first
| Of what the island would eventually
mean TO him. He could scarcely nave

going to develop into the greatest hob
by he had ever ridden. Beside II, his
passion for arctic investigation was
TO grow dim and all his yachting
schemes were to suffer almost total
eclipse. One of his first steps was TO
import q large colony of French work
men and their families. These skilled
laborers began Immediately to con-
struct a model village. Into the islands
dark interior excellent roads were
made and fresh corsignments OF sub
jects were sent inland TO form new
settlements Along the shores of the
island railroad communication was es-
tablished, harbors were improved and
more model villages were built Fac
tories, schools and churches followed
in rapid succession, and as browning
feature noble residence for himself.
NJ Menier is possessed of an indomi-
table will and a tireless activity In
carrying out his purposes. He is a
man OF middle age. OF great physical
strength and endowed with unusual
executive ability. AS an evidence that
he regards himself as the lawful ruler
of Antlcosti may be recorded the fact
that he sent NJ. Commetant from
Paris to act as his vicegerent during
his absences from the island. At the
time OF Queen Victoria's death M. Com
