Curious Copper Mining.

TT is said that about nine miles from
Santiago de Cuba there are cop
per mines, having shafts from 900 e."
1900 feet deep, which were regularly
worked until some years ago, wher
they were abandoned and became
filled with water, all but 800 feet of
their depth being below sea level
But in later years copper was 30
tained from the drowned mines in an
interesting manner. The water with
which they are filled holds a con
siderable quantity of copper in solu-
tion. and this water was pumped our
into tanks. Scraps of iron were then
thrown into it and the dissolved cop
per became deposited on the iron
When the deposit grew sufficiently

" ROM Norfolk Island, situated
~ far to the south of here, comes
the story of industrial prog
ress of perhaps the most re-
markable people of any who inhabit
an island of the South seas. To
every one who is familiar with the
history of the various islands that
dot the broad expanse of the Pacific
ocean, the story of the descendants
of the crew of the British warship
Bounty is we'll known. OF all the
romances of the verdure-covered is
land gems of the placid southern
seas, none has aroused more world
wide interest than that which has en-
riched the life of the progeny of the
Britishers comprising the crew of the
Bounty, who mutinied and took charge
of the ship because of their love for
the beautiful Tahiti maidens.
So daring and romantic was the
adventure that the memory Of the
mutineers is not in any way clouded
by the deed that they committed. 1t
was in 1889 that the Bounty arrived
at Tahiti for the purpose of taking
on a cargo Of breadfruit trees to be
transported to the West Indies for
the introduction. there Of that staple
product of the islands of the South
seas. When Commander Bligh got
ready to depart with his warship he
found that several members Of the
crew objected to leaving Tahiti. They
had fallen under the spell of the, de-
voted attentions that the native
women had showered upon them.
Finally, by force Of arms the re-
calcitrant men Of the British navy
were rounded up and gotten aboard.
Only a few days out from Tahiti
these lovelorn Britishers mutinied,
placed Commander Bligh and few
of his faithful followers in an open
boat and abandoned them on the high
seas.
TURNING the warship back to
Tahiti, the mutineers took on
board their favorite brown-skinned
native maidens and set sail for the
island of their dreams, whero they
might lead life Of lotus-eating in
peace and isolation. After many days
of voyaging they came to Pitcairn
island, an uninhabited paradise Of
nature. They took all the stores Of
the Bounty ashore and then burned
the ship. The island is about six
miles long and three miles across
at the widest part. They found
growing there an abundance Of wild
fruits, including lemons; oranges.
pineapp1es. bananas. passion fruit.

became conscious that the straight

presence of mind to skip a few lines.

PARIS. March 16. 1922.

A UNIQUE book is coming out
~ in Paris 1t is made up of
n instantaneous impressions that
were received in the intimacy
of the old kaiser's family in years
when the new German empire was
enjoying it's great prosperity-lm-
pressions that are genuine and not
evamped, for publication nowadays
and that are not unkindly. In the
light of late years they come as
revelations.
In November, 1851. the old Empress
Aueusta, wife of Kaiser Wilhelm l
and grandmother Of the ex-kalser
now living, lost her French reader.
1t was his business to read aloud to
her for two hours every day in his
native French language whatever
she wanted to hear from the Paris
papers and French novels and BOOKS,
all. selected and correct. On the rec
ommendation of Paul BourSet. who
was known to the empress as nov
elist, a young Frenchman twenty-one
wears of age was chosen who was
writing poetry in Paris and all but
starving among the literary Bo-
hemians. This was Jules Laforgue
born in Montevideo, South America
and a chief inventor Of the "Vers
libre," which Americans like Amy
Lowell have used for their own
verses. He held his post with the
German empress for five years, wnen
he resigned to marry an English ad-
nirsr and die Of pleurisy at twenty
seven. In Berlin he had enjoyed
comfort for the first time, and ne
had time to observe.
The sketches and portraits which
are now to be published were left
complete II, manuscript by Jules La
foreus, but when his heirs published
t1,e three: volume edition OF his verses
and letters to his sister they left out
these pages. The Berlin court was
sensitive and the French did not
wish misunderstandings or trouble.
Hare is what ne saw IN the old
Emperor William I, whom Will
liam the Last Of our unhappy day
used to call my rnforsetable grand
father: He was overhowing with
faith that providence still needed
hin,-and that, in Europe, 1t is he
who is the good shepherd Of peoples
and the dispenser of peace" The
young Frenchman adds: "of all the
Germans, he is the one whom pro-
dieious success has left with least

jects that in 1856 the government of
New South Wales, Australia, sent a
ship and took all of the men, women
and children on board and trans
ferred them to Norfolk Island, more
than 5000 miles away. This was
done because the progeny of the
mutineers and their descendants had
ing. Notwithstanding the natural
wonderful beauty and ideal climate
Of Norfolk Island, a few families be-
came dissatisfied and were sent back
to Pitcairn Island, SO that today the
descendants Of the original colonists
are divided between the two islands.
That intermarriage does not pro-
duce degeneracy is proved by the
people of Norfolk and Pitcairn
islands, according to tho views of
some scientists who have made b

people who comprise the present pop
ulation Of Norfolk Island. all but a
few Of them belong to seven fam
lilies, the original progenitors of
whom, with the exception Of Nobbs.
were mutineers Of tho Bounty. Two
of the mutineers seem to have left
no descendants.
The names Of the families now Nv
ing upon Norfolk Island are Adams,
Buffet, Christian, Mccoy, Nobbs,
Quintall and Young. For more than
125 years the members Of these fam
lilies have been intermarrying. The
people are strong mentally and
physically, it is declared. Not long
ago a scientist in the United States
made the statement in a lecture that
as a result Of the long period of
intermarrying Of the Bounty crew
descendants the present generation
Of children were without teeth. Ac-
cordfng to the statements of men
who recently visited Norfolk Island.
there is no truth in this assertion.
OF recent years there have been
added a few British families to the
population Of Norfolk Island. These
newcomers are employed chiefly in
the cable station and as government
odicials upon the island. For gov
