PARADISE ISLAND.
In the year 1850 an Englishman who had
been a resident of New Zealand for ten
years suddenly blossomed out as an in-
spired leader of men. His name was Ben-
jamin Marks, and he was anything but
educated and refined. His idea was to se-
cure power and place for himself, but he
was so good at dissembling that no one
mistrusted this until too late. By visions,
prophecies and downright lying he induced
sixty-five people to set out with him in
search of a paradise on earth. A brig
called the True Blue carried the crowd
away, and l was an apprentice on the brig.
She had come out from England several
years before, and had been sailing between
New Zealand and some of the islands to
the north. The day' we left Poverty bay I
was 15 years old, and a stout lad for my
age.
The first stop we made was at Sunday
Island, which then had‘ about 500 inhabit-
ants. There was neither law, order nor
decency among them, but Marks managed
to keep this fact from his people. From a
trading schooner there he got such infor-
mation asinduced him to change the course
to the northeast, and we bore away for the
Paumotu group. This group takes in,
large and small, about 2,000 islands, and
includes the Marquesa, Society and Cook
islands. It is on a direct east and west line
between Brazil and Australia, and is from
5 to 30 degs. south of the equator.
We had six weeks’ sailing after leaving
Sunday Island, and there were frequent.
Many would.
«quarrels among the elect.
have returned if possible, and had not
Marks possessed a. peculiar personal map:-
netism the troubles would have .been more
disastrous. One morning we sighted land
dead ahead, and before noon the people
had forgottdn all their differences and were
happy again. 'Theii‘rland is down on the.
- newer charts as Tubai, but for many years
was known as Paradise. We came up with
it at about 2 o'clock, and Marks and others
were rowed ashore for a visit of inspection.
The island is thirteen miles long by seven
’ broad, but a mile or so at either end is low
and swampy and covered at high water.
There is also a large marsh on the eastern
shore. After a day and a half spent in
prospecting Marks decided that the island
would do. It was finely wooded, had many
springs and creeks, and the land gradually
rose to a plateau high and dry. Lying so
near the equator there was scarce need of
clothing, and winter would be known only
by three or four weeks of rain.
It took us about a week to discharge
cargo and get ready to sail, as some of the
sailors lent a hand to help build temporary
shelter for the people. -When the ship had
been cleared and everything was ready for
saying good-by the captain of the brig,
whose name was Dartwood, who had been
reasonably kind to me, ordered me into
the yawl with another of the crew to pull
I in) ashore to deliver a bundle which had
been forgotten. I noticed that the boat
had her mast and sail lying in her, but
this fact had no significance to me just
then. The people had settled on the rising
ground a mile from the landing, rind as
we reached the shore I was instructed? to
carry the ' bundle to the settlement. 'I
started off very briskly, and in the course
of twenty minutes placed the bundle in
Marks’ hands. No sooner had I turned to
go than -I was roughly seized, thrown
down and my ankles and hands securely
lashed. Upon demanding an explanation
Marks replied:
”I gave the captain £5 for you, and you
‘elong to me. It is no use'to raise a row.
51f you behave yourself you shall be Well
:.reated: if not; you will get badly ban?
.11 .5, _ .
I at once proceeded to raise a row with
my voice, reviling the whole band after
io’castle fashion, but they turned to and
beat me until I was forced to cry for
mercy. 4 -
The only object Marks could have had in
buying me was to make me his slave and
drudge. The captain did actually sell me
for a £5 note, as alleged, and in after years
when I got him into court in Wellington
it cost him- £500 to settle matters. After
being licked into silence I realized that my
best way was to endure what I could not
«sure. The brig had gone, and if I did not
take hold with some show of spirit Marks
would make life unendurable. I exprmcd
. sorrow at my conduct, premised to do bet-
' tor, and was untied and put to work.
All the houses were to be erected on one
line, facing the south. That of Marks had
already been begun. It was the summer
‘ season there, and one could lie out at night
. Without the least inconvenience. A certain
number were to work at the houses while
1 others cleared land and planted crops, and
‘ even the children 6 years old had tasks al-
lotted them. While all were busy no one
had time for regrets, and I think it was
, fully six weeks before I received a hint
i that all was not satisfactory. Every hut
' v{as newcompleted and. the crops planted,
int the people had come to see that they
, were simply to make an easy living. They
had no use for manners, dress, education
or money. While they had no taxes to pay
or laws to oppress them, they had no deeds
to theland, and whatever Marks said must
:1 boobeyed. _ He did not take on autocratic
lowers until all necessary work had been
ammplished. Then he proceeded to show
himself in his true spirit. He was to be
boss and idler, while all others worked and
obeyed. His arguments were to go with:
out dispute. .
Had he not descended to trifles the people
Would have borne with him, but by andby
he wanted to dictate in even the smallest
filings, and, one day there was an awful
row between all hands. Fists and clubs
Were used and many were injured, and the

drew from the Marks government. andset;
up for themselves under the leadership ‘of'z :
a man named Baker; They demanded half: »
of everything, and the Marks faction lied
to grant it or bring on another fight. Thus
in'three months from landing in "Para-
dise” we had a state of affairs which would
have disgraced an. African village.
Marks had treated me fairly well up to
the time of the split. My sympathies were
with the other party, and learning of this
he tied me to a tree and whipped-me until
I fainted away. He then chained me to a
log for a week, and when I was released he
forced me to. drudge from daylight to
dark. One day I ran away to the north
end of the island, and for two weeks I kept
clear of the men who were hunting for me
I lived on wild fruits and roots, and was
enjoying myself immensely when caught.
Marks gave me another beating, and I
was now set to work with a chain and clog
attached to my right leg. There had been
no fighting between the two governments
after the first clash, but the truce was full
of anxiety. Marks was determined not to
divide the throne with anybody, and after
waiting about a month in hopes to see the
Baker faction return to its allegiance, he
began to plan an aggressive campaign.
Under his direction a raid was made one
afternoon on the houses of the Baker fac-
tion, and five rifles were secured. Each
man in the colony had a rifle and more or
less ammunition, and the capture of those
five guns practically disabled five of the
faction. The men were out in the fields
when the raid was made, and of course
their wives could make no defense.
That evening Marks sent word to the
Bakerites that they must come in and sign
a paper repudiating their leader, or he
would treat them as malcontents and dan-
gerous persons. They refused to a man,
and that night I heard Marks planning
with some of his men to commit murder.
The situation is one which has many times
existed. A lot of people go away by them-
selves to escape avarice and oppression,
and are invariably the victims of some of
their own number. Marks wanted the
other half of the money back, and he want-
ed the other faction to humble itself. I
heard them planning that next day they
would ambush Baker and shoot him down
without warning, and it was hoped the
rest of the party would then come in.
W’hile Marks had made a dog of me, and
beaten me on the slightest excuse, I was
not watched 0’ nights. The chain and
clog had also been removed. At midnight
on this night I crept out of my brush but
and went and warned Baker of what was
in store for him. He warned all his ads
herents, and the result was murder, just
the same as if I had let Marks carry out
his plans. Next forenoon, as one of our
party named Redford was skulking in the
woods to get a shot at Baker, some one put
a bullet into him. and a child was sent
with a note to say that our side could
bring in the body.
0f, the thirty men seventeen had gone
with Baker. but five of these were without
firearms. Marks had lost a man, but the
extra guns made up for it. After the kill
ing both sides declared war, and both were
anxious for further bloodshed. The wo-
men and children kept tothe houses, while
the men scattered over the island and
hunted for one another. In the course of a
week Marks lost four fh‘im killed and two
badlywounded, and the Baker side lost
one .killed and two wounded. While I
lived with Marks, it was because I was
obliged to, and I was therefore treated as
a non—combatant. Any message between
the leaders was carried by me.
About ten days after the first killing
Marks called me into his house and told me
to get the yawl ready for a trip. The boat
was lying in a creek half a mile away, and
before the rupture had been free toall,
though I had always been taken along to
manage her. Marks was not a married
man. He now praised and flattered me in
the highest terms, and said he proposed to
go in the yawl to some other island, tak.
ing me along. No one else was to go, and
l was not to breathe a word. That even-
ing as soon as dark I was to,carry all his
bundles to the boat, ‘supply her with water
and provisibns, and then bring word to
him when all was ready. When night
came he got the men out into the woods to
watch, and I took from his house six
rifles, all the money, the bedding, clock,
clothing, etc. I supplied the boat with
forty. gallons of water and a lot" of cooked
and fresh provisions, and bymidnight I
had her ready. I had had a 'plan of my
own eversince Marks opened his mouth.
It was very doubtful if he meant to take
me with him at all, but if he did it was
more than likely that he would throw me
Overboard when he had sighted other land.
It was2 o’clock in the morning before
the tide turned, and then I got into the
yawl and let her drift to the west. 1 was
not yet out of hearing distance when
Marks came down to the creek and called
me. .
When daylight came and I got a breeze I
was only three miles 06 shore, anéwas no
doubt seen by all our party. I held to the
northwest, having a compass in the boat,
and after three days and nights of fair
progress I reached another of the Austral
group, called the King’s Park, and there
found a trader, to whom I related all.
After a short delay he set sail for the isl.
and I had left, taking me with him, but
owing to contrary winds we did not reach
‘it foraweek. War had been rife mean-
while. Marks, Baker and three others had
been killed, two women and two children
had been wounded, and the entire party
now prayed to be taken off the island. Ar~
rangements were made with the trader,
and all were leaded up and carried to one
of the Navigator islands, where some of
them are still living—New York Sun.
Every Day Heroism.
The makeshifts of poverty are sometimes
of an heroic nature. Two men met ou'the
street corner and stopped to have achat. _
A cold wind was blowing, and one of the
men remarked: '
“I see you don’t wear an overcoat ' any
more than I do, Jack.”
_ “No. M—m-y d-o-ctor s-s-aid I shouldn’t.
M-made me too t—tender. I w—w—e-ar
p-p—paper instead.”
“So do I. Strange, isn’t it, that we
should both hit on the same thing? Doc-
tor told me I’d have consumption if I bun—
dled up so much.” ’
“Just s-s-sol How are you getting
along?”
“Fine! fine! And you?”
“I’m all 0. K. S-s~see you again.”
“Bye.”
And each of the two cheerful prevarica-
tors went his way, covering up with smiles
and pitiful subterfuge the fact that he was
Working himself to death to keep a roof
over his dear ones. .And this every day
heroism is as great as that which taketh a
city—Detroit Free Press.
Philadelphia is becoming noted for its
large number of physicians, and the num‘
her is rapidly increasing. Within a. dis-
tance of five or six squares on Chestnut
and Walnut and the cross streets there
have been counted more'than two hundred 1
doctors.

Ilrst Class Style for the Creamery.
A Suggestion. for Next Spring and
Summer. _
Thereare many localities where itis
not convenient to get ice and not cold
enough for the farmer to collect his own
ice, as every one should do where it
freezes sufficiently. ~ Every farmer ‘in a
region where water freezes ought to have
his own ice house. But where this is not
possxble, and where the dairyman has no
bubbling, ice cold spring upon his prem-
ises. the milk can be cooled very effect-
ually in a way described by O. H. Smith
in The Rural New Yorker.
He lets it down into a well and sus-
pends it just above the water. Even‘if
there were no water in the well, by dig-
ging to a sufficient depth a temperature
could be reached sufficiently cold to
lower the temperature of the milk to the
desired point.
Mr. Smith gives the following illus-
tration of ' cooling milk in a well.
These to whom this idea will be of
any benefit can prepare for carrying out
the plan when the weather begins to be
Warm next spring. Mr. Smith writes
of it:
A correspondent asks whether any one
is trying the system of raising cream in
the well. Yes, this is the second season
COOLING MILK IN A WELL.
in which I have raised cream in that
way. I put- it in deep pails, like com-
mon creamery pails, 8 inches across and
19 inches deep. Three of them go side
by side into my well. They are let down
into the well by means of rope and wind-
lass. I use two common hay fork pul-
leys, as shown in the illustration.
The use of these makes the work
easier and steadier. I put the morning’s
milk in the well and let it stay until
night, then putthe night’s milk in and
let it stay until morning. We skim or
dip the cream from the milk as soon as
it is taken out of the well, then let the
milk stand “in the pail for twelve hours,
and there ~is a light skimming, after
which no more cream rises.
The temperature in the well is below
45 dogs. when there is water; when dry
it is about 55 by the thermometer. I
use covers for the pails with a. half inch
air hole in the center of each. I think
the sooner the milk is cooled after it has
been drawn from the cows the better.
I set the pails in the water trough while
milking. When this is over the milk
goes into the well. I claim that keeping
the milk and raising cream in our well
is a perfect success. I believe that even
if I had plenty of ice I could handle the
milk in this way in less time and with
less trouble than it could be done by the
ice process. If I Should increase my
dairy and the well were not large enough
to keep and cool the milkI would make
another well.
Notes.
Set the milk as near normal tempera-
ture, 98 dogs, as possible, then reduce to
50 degs., and use. a good dairy thermom-
eter. Don’t guess at anything.
Feed skim milk to the cows that pro-
duce it and you will not need to keep any
hogs around to use it up. '
In endeavoring to obtain all the milk
possible from cows dairymen sometimes
overfeed them. Then the animal becomes
feverish. She falls ofi both in her milk
and food and sometimes dries up, the
udder becoming thick and lumpish
first and the milk very stringy. The
udder is especially affected, because
of the extraordinary chemical activity
required to convert so much food into
milk. Care should especially be exercised
that too much starch food is not given.
The De Laval hand cream separators
have been tried by many small butter
makers with satisfaction. The small size
is called the “Baby Separator.”
Tariff or no tariff, the world still eats
good butter.
The dairy of A. B. Darling, amateur
farmer, in Ramapo valley, N. J ., pre«
sents some unique features. The milk
is set in a little stone house, built partly
under ground. Just above the back part
'of the dairy house is the ice house. It
is built so that the waste water from
the ice house falls upon a small water
wheel and does the churning. We think
this idea might be enlarged on in places
where there are small creamer-rim. They
might be located along water courses
and the flow of water utilized to run the
machinery.
The best butter making month in the
year is considered by many to be Novemo
ber. -
It often happens that wealthy amateur
butter makers can secure better prices
for their product than the professionals
themselves. This is in nearly all cases
because of the extra care and cleanliness
bestowed on both the cows and the but-
ter preparation, and also because of the
superior methods of feeding pursued.
You cannot strain dust or minute par-_
ticles of animal scruf or filth out of
milk. The only way-is not to let th
getinto the milk. .

dining‘room, kitchen bedroom, bathroom,
pantry and closets. The second story con-
tains three good sized bedrooms. The
framework of the cottage is of North Caro-
lina. pine, dressed on all sides exposed to
view. The exterior of the building is cov-
ered with tongued and grooved North Car-
olina pine, 1% inch stuff, dressed one side
for the roofs and both sides for the side
walls and gables. . The roofs are shingled
with good quality white pine shingles,
laid 5% inches to the weather.
The vertical joints in sheathing of the
side walls and gables are covered with
%x2 inch molded battens, secured by
twelvepenny finishing nails. All floors
are of one-inch yellow pine, tongued and
grooved, mill worked and blind nailed. The
partitions are formed by nailing one-inch

doors are of white pine, newels, rails and
balusters of stairs, water closet seat and lid,
top of bath tub and sink, borders of
hearths and mantels of ash, all other in-
side woodwork of North Carolina pine.
The window sashes are glazed with double

ranged to receive all the roof water, which
supplies. the plumbing fixtures. A pump
is provided which supplies the tank with
water from :3 well in case the rain supply
is short. The linings of valleys, fastenings
and conducting leaders are of tin. The
wastes from the plumbing fixtures are re-
ceived in a cesspool some thirty-five feet
from the house.
The exterior of the building is painted
in two coats of ready mixed paints—the
body of the building a light drab color
and the trimmings dark drab, with mold-
ings and sash picked out in bright red.
The newels, rails and balusters of stairs,
top of bath tuband water closet and man—
tels are first finished with one coat of wood ,
filler and two coats beet copal varnish.
The doors are varnished two coats; all
other inside woodwork finished with one
cent hard oil and one coat varnish.
The heartbs are of glazed tiles, facings of
fireplace of pressed brick and stained
with Venetian red and .oil, chimneys of
hard brick, laid in lime mortar. The foun-
dation walls are of stone, laid in lime mor—
tar or brick. Or, if. extreme cheapness is
desired, the building could rest on twelve

half'timber work in this case is exposed on
the interior instead of exterior, the studs
are placed vertically, and the ceiling nailed
on them horizontally. The cost of No. 2 is
