troubles of 1778 but again restored toFrance in 1783 In 1793 England sweptthe Islands clean of the French but fora third time In 1802 France was givenyears¬

land but since 1816 they have been In theundisputed possession of the French

Mlquelon has an area of 45642 acresbut is of little importance The islandof St Pierre has an area of 6420 acresand at its southern extremity Is the cityof St Pierre This Is the only importantcity on the islands and has a populationof over 5000 DUring the cod fishing sea-

son¬

this Is Increased by fully 10000 fish ¬

ermen which come over from FranceAccording to the terms of the treatyofUtrecht the French were not to fortifythem in any way but it is claimed thatthis agreement has been violated tosome extent Certain it is that Francosends over each year thousands of boyswhich are being trained for her navyThey are called beach boys and help theol 1men repairing tackle and nettinghe cape tin a small fish good for bait

white the fishermen are away at theBanks These beach boys are an inter ¬

esting feature of St Pierre They are ofan average age of 18 and are sent outfrOm France under contract to act ashelpers to the fisherman The govern ¬

ment pays them 30 for the season andfurnishes transportation food clothingand shelter In return they are requiredlifter two or three years of apprentice-ship to enter the French navy Thismakes of the islands a sort of trainingground for the French navy right underthe nose of the English

St Pierre is a quaint town with itslow buildings of French architectureThere are no street cars no sidewalksfew horses no hotels as we understandthem no dally newspaper no nothingthat would suggest a city in Americasave the electric lights Think of It Inthis odd little fishing town finding thoow oldfashioned houses lit with elec ¬

tricity The streets are long narrowand hilly and on them one sees the littlerough carts drawn by dogs driven by

natives in Basque caps blouses andsabots There are also heavy ox teamsproddingr

About April every year the Frenchfleet of fishing vessels arrives at StPierre and then the busy season of thecity begins In September the boatsagain assemble In the port preparatoryto thojeturn to France The possessionof these two islands is a source Of continual irritation of the British and com

the fishing controversy whichaddittoidb

the French hold by right of treaty theprivilege to land at any point on the New¬

foundland coast between Capo Bonaviola and Cape Riche for the purpose ofdrying their fish

The suggestion of the annexation ofthe islands to the United States Is ex ¬

ceedingly Interesting but it is verydoubtful whether the latter countrywould entertain suph a proposition
