Norfolk, Va—King Edward of Eng- land has given a handsome cup to be competed for at the yacht races at the Jamestown exposition next Sep- tember. It is to become the perma- nent property of the winner. The king’s gift is of fine silver gilt with cover and cup mounted on an ebonized base. It is a copy of the early Georgian period, with two mas- sive scroll handles. The cup and cover are ornamented with inlaid scroll mask and strap work. It is 22 inches high, 22 inches wide, including the handles, and the diameter of the body is 12 inches. It weighs 278 ounces. The inscription on the front bears the engraved persona! monogram and Cup to Be Competed For by Yachts- men. crown of the king, with the letters E. R. and Roman numerals VII. inter- laced.

The American origin of early types of the horse, the camel, the rhinoceros and other animals, which eventually attained a circumpolar distribution, but that the same fact is true of some forms of existing mammalia does not seem to have hitherto recognized. Dr. Allen thinks that eastern Siberia has derived some of its present mam- malian life from boreal America within a comparatively recent period. —Youth’s Companion.

Japan Is Applying Latest Methods to Husband Timber. Washington.—Luke E. Wright, Unit- ed States ambassador to Japan, has forwarded to the state department de tails of the cooperative agreement be- tween the Japanese and Korean gov- ernments outlining a plan for the use of forests in the Yalu and Tumen val- leys. The plan is similar in many ways to the methods of the United States in developing the national for- ests of this country under the admin- istration of the forest service. The decision of the Japanese gov- ernment to apply methods of forestry to the use of the forests of Korea is given especial attention because it is said that the matter of a large timber concession by Russia to a corporation was one of the ulterior causes of the declaration of war between the two countries. Before Korea came under the rule of Japan its timber resources were being rapidly depleted by waste- ful lumbering. Japan’s plan for the management of the timber lands of Korea is to estab- lish in the next five or six years nine mode! forests in the neighborhood of the cities of Seoul, Pingyang and Taiku. The capital for this enterprise is about $600,000, one-half of which is to be furnished by the Korean govern- ment. Nuns as Strikebreakers. Cuneo, Italy—When the composi- tors of the Roman Catholic weekly newspaper here struck for higher wages the proprietor, at his wits’ end, went to the prioress of the convent. She was a woman of resource and suggested that her nuns should go to the printing office and do the work. They did. In a few days they had be- come fairly expert and the paper ap- peared only one day late. The nuns made one characteristic stipulation, that the money they earned should go to the support of the strikers’ famil- ies. Wants to Stop Hat Tipping.
