people. Major Frame also urged the
working of the people and the rail-
roads together to accomplish the
great end of advancement needed in
this state. Mr.. Van Horns address
was brief and he only referred in a
short talk to about the same ideas as
those dwelt upon by the other speak
ers.
So enthused were the railroad boys
by the interesting and instructive at
ternoon that had been accorded them,
that they at once decided to hold an
other meeting on October 4, at which
time several other prominent speak
ers will be invited to talk on railroad
subjects now of vital Importance.

WOMEN Of AEON
WORE RUBBER BOOTS

A copy of the Western Pacific Her
aid, of September %, published at Suva
FIJI, containing an account of the
wrecking of the Aeon, and carried from
Suva to Page Page by the U. S. S
Solace, was loaned to the Advertiser
yesterday by Admiral Swinburne. The
account is as follows:
Tanning Island, Monday.
All the steamer S boats, with the ex-
ception of two, were smashed on the
rocky coast of Christmas Island whilst
landing passengers, provision, etc.
A strict scale of rations was enforced
after landing on the island, slightly re-
duced from the ordinary scale.
The Cinnamon, about thirty in num-
Der, who formed the bulk of the crew,
became sullen after the wreck and
struck work
The Europeans on the ship included
twelve men, four ladies and two chill
dren. The passengers include the Rev.
and Mrs. Patrick, nurse, servant and
two children. Mr.. Patrick was going
to Page Page, the American naval sta
ton at Samoa, as chaplain. Mrs. Rid
die, who was going to join her husband,
Lieut.. Riddle, at Page Page, is also a
passenger.
The Aeon is a total wreck; the rocks
are through the hull under the engine
room and boilers.
The main trouble after landing on the
island. was water The water in the
wells on the island was found to be
brackish. Afterwards water was found
a short distance away from the scene
of the wreck. 1t contained lime but is
drinkable. Drinking water was obtain
ed at first from the tanks on the ship.
The shipwrecked people have plenty
of tea, coffee and cocoa; but no sugar.
They have plenty of provisions for some
time.
The island proved to be all barren
rock, and there was absolutely no shell
ter from the sun until the houses were
built and tents erected.
For two months after the wreck all
the white people worked hard; and built
a house.
One Of the ship boats was fitted with
an oil engine, portion of the cargo OF
the steamer, launching ways were built,
and she was successfully launched
through the breakers.
The little craft then commenced on
her voyage to flaming Island, some $50
miles to the n. w.
The attempt failed however as the
boat was damaged.
She was then repaired, rebottomed,
reengined. This took about a month s
work and then she was again launched,
and set out on her second and success
ful attempt to reach Tanning Island.
The captain went in command. leaving
the chief officer and chief engineer in
charge. On her second attempt the
ladies made a pennant for the boat for
luck, with the Southern Cross, and the
motto Clone Hand. -
The ladies boots and shoes soon wore
out on the rocky island. On searching
amongst the cargo, eases Of rubber
boots were found. These were cut down
for the ladies' use.

Mr. Alexander r. Smith, a note of

exist with regard to the coastwise trade
clearly set forth. Mr.. Smith 5 letter is

ian planter justiies the abandonment Of

DOGS COMMIT SUICIDE.
French Discuss If Animals Can
Act Like Humans.

Special Cab1egram TO The Star
PARIS. November 2S-M. Camille
Flammarion has been discussing the ques-
ton whether it is really possible for dogs
to commit suicide. like human beings,
and concludes In the affirmative. His re-
marks were occasioned by the alleged
suicide of st. Bernard dog, which threw
Itself under a motor bus In the Pace
Saint Suipice recently. an hour after rs
mistress died. as was mentioned at the
Tins. He argues that the dog may be
assumed to have known as well as a
human being that q motor bus could
crush him to death. and when 1t got in
front of Its wheels !: probably did SO
as the quickest way to end its grief at
ts mistress demise.
He relates another story, which, he
says, came under his own notice. Of a
dog which threw itself in'o q river and
deliberately held it's head under the
wafer until 1t was drowned because
its master, who did not wish to keep il
any more. had driven 1t away from his
home. From these and many other in
cidents. which he recalls. he concludes
that the stories of dogs having commit
ted suicide are not so Incredible as they
may seem at first sight. and he added
that they may even have borrowed the
instinct from man.
