NARROWED FOR THREE YEARS
Sailors Long Period of Loneliness on
Small Island Located in the
South Seas.

Narrowing occasionally brings about
modern Crusoe; just as It did with
Alexander Selllirk, who was put ashore
at Juan Fernandez, and whose adven-
lures gave Defoe the foundation for
'Robinson Crusoe." The trading
schooner, Queen Charlotte, passing a
small island of the Marquesas in the
South seas, landed her boat to investi-
gate the smoke of a fire, as 1t was un-
derstoOd the island was uninhabited.
Here was found a United States sea-
man, who had been put ashore with
three shipmates by their captain, on
account Of their mutinOus conduct.
The three others had died, but the
man from Connecticut had contrived to
live on the fish he caught, and the
breadfruit and cocOnuts and other prod
ucts which he could gather. When
rescued after three years loneliness,
his utensils consisted Of great shells,
and two cups which he possessed,
made from the skulls of his COM
panlons.

The Genro, confident OF its complete

The business elements in the empire

diplomatic observers that Japan looks
to the British and French Governments
to lend helping hand at Washing

these same observers are confident
that japan will suggest reciprocal
treatment for the very great service
she rendered both Great Britain and

more, they are of the opinion that
japan will not appeal in vain.
The people generally have mani

The atmosphere of Toxic has con-

There are many very substantial
