The first board would be named on a revolving basis, and thereafter the directors would be elected for a term of six years. Appeal for Funds, Senator Frazier further states thet “I will receive your money for sub- scriptions and the purchase of equip- ment, and I will hold it until it is as- | certained whether sufficient response is received to justify going shead, und if sufficient response is received to warrant the venture your money will be returned to you less the cost of getting out these letters and other expense incident to this work, which in no case will exceed 5 per cent.” In discussing the prospects of suc- ¢ess for the proposed daily, Mr. Fra- niet’ says shat if 16,000° subscribers being | .

Selton, has just purchased from a Moro datu, or chief, the brass helmet wor by the explorer Magellan in 1521 when he was killed in the Philippines after realizing only a , .t of his ambition to be the first to encircle the globe. The helmet has been handed down from gener- at’on to generation in the families of the Moro chieftains, and its au- thenticity is vouched for by priests in the Nligan and Parang districts. The old brass headgear is entire- ly unaffected by more than 400 years of exposure to the moist cli- mate of the Philippines, retaining its original smooth and polished surface. The tooling and orna- | mentation is still intact, as is even the frail brass hinge used to fasten the helmet under the chin of the doughty old warricr.
