PEc1AL DISPATCHES TO THE REcoRD-UuoN.l
The Atlantic Rough.

The Atlantic Rough.
HALIFAX IN. 81, January 22d.-The
steamship Rhaltia, of the Ham burg- Amer
lean line, has put in here for coal. She re-
ports terrible weather.
The Egypt had rail carried away by the
heavy seas, and had q terrible passage.
The steamship Sarrento, from Hamburg
to New York, put in here for coal, having
been compelled to jettison part of her
cargo.
A Calmer Feeling.
LISBON, January 22d-Several persons
upon whom the British Government at
various times conferred medals have re-
turned the mementos to the English Min
lister.
News has just been received that the
Governor at Mozambique has published an
act of vindication of Portugal's rights to
the entire Shire district. The news has
fallen like a bombshell here, and is re-
garded as justifying Lord Salisbury's pro-
ceedings. Hence there is calmer feeling.
Honoring SeIpo Pinto.
LISBON, January 22d.-It is proposed by
the leading men of this city to have a
grand procession and patriotic demonstra-
ton in honor of Major Serpo Pinto upon
his arrival, for his course in the dispute
Win EnSlanQ IN africa. Inc route Will
be covered with British cloth, which will
be trampled upon as demonstration of
the odium in which the English are held
by the Portuguese.
Wilderness of Savages.
PARIS, January 22d.-Captaln Trevier,
the French explorer, who recently crossed
from the west to the east coast of Africa, is
of the opinion that no commercial ventures
are possible in these portions of the coun-
try through which he travelled.
Vessel Damaged.
LONDON, January 22d.-The bark Dun
nerdale is reported at Holyhead, from San
Francisco, damaged. She was thrown on
her beam ends for day, and much water
wss in her hold.
The Pope is Not Dead.
ROME, January 22d. - There is wide
spread a rumor that the Pope is dead. This
appears to have been caused by the unusual
and unlooked-for announcement that he is
in perfect health.

AROUND THE WORLD.

Two young and handsome women are
racing around the world in the advertising
interest Of two worthy journals So far as
the notoriety the magazine and the news
paper will acquire by reason of the race,
We do not believe that it will have money
value in the present sufficient to compen-
safe for the outlay. But uuquestionably
1t is good advertising, for the secret of that
lies in fixing the title of the bust
ness in the memory of the public. But
that is neither here nor there, compared
70 the question whether therace against
time around the globe proves anything.
A letter dispatched and attended to by
distributing offices so as to miss no connec-
tons could be sent around the world Just
as quickly.
So far as the trip being made within
given time is concerned, that has no higher
value, in our opinion, than the calculation
of time tables for the passage would have

ductors of the trains of cars, and the
drivers of the vehicles who conveyed
the young women form chain
around the world constantly, since
they relate TO each other at the connec-
tions of their lines in manner to
literally enoircle the globe. A package of
paper passed by them from hand to hand
at the terminals of their routes would go
around the world as rapidly as either of
the young women. SO far as physical en-
durance is concerned we cannot perceive
that either of the women have any reason
to claim special credit. The trip is now
mainly made by rail and steamer, and in
quite as much ease and comfort as if one
were resting at home, lacking only the
commodiousness and quiet of the latter.
Ii they were made weary by travel by
rail. they were compensated by the re-
freshment of ocean voyages at a season

We have no desire to take from these
young women q particle of credit, nor to
deprive them of any praise that is their
due, but confess that we do not find in their
achievement any special reason for denom-

NOTE AND COMMENT.

The San Francisco Alta has just cele-
brated the fortieth anniversary of its first
publication as daily newspaper. AS a
weekly paper it was first published in San
Francisco on January 1. 1919. The first
issue as daily was four-page paper, four
columns to the page, printed on q hand
press on a sheet 1922 inches. The publ
cation OF the Sunday edition was CON-
menced on August II, 1850, ard since thst
time the paper has been issued 365 days in
every year, and 366 days in leap years, with
out missing n single day. The Alta has
well fulfilled the promises made forty years
ago. 1t has lsbored earnestly and well for
the interests of San Francisco and the State
at large. 1t has not been given up to SEN
sational trash as some of its contemporaries
have. and has splendid reputation for
truthfulness, independence and impartial

Indians Acquitted of Murder Jailing
Migrants.
FRESNO, January 22d.-Henry TuWatt,
charged jointly with Bill Mitchell and
Saliaco, all Indians, with killing another
Indian named Palone some time last sum-
mer, was acquitted to-day in the Superior
Court. This acquittal will result in the
discharge of his co-dsfendants.
An autopsy on the French woman, Sara
Bernhardt, who committed Sunday night,
revealed the fact that her lover had
kicked her nearly to death before she took
the poison. He was arrested and jailed at
the instance of the Corners Jury. This
has aroused public sentiment and spurred
up official letbargy, and early this morning
nine more men who were living off women
in Chinatown were arrested as "vags."
During the day number of others left the
town, and the officers say they are deter

MAJOR PowELL's SCHEMES.
How He Proposed to Reclaim the Vas
Area of Arid Lands

Area OF Arid Lands.
WASHINGTON, January 22d.-The Select
Committee on Irrigation and the Reclama-
ton of Arid Lands held session last even
ing. Major Powell, Director of the United
States Geological Survey, explained by the
aid of maps the drainage areas, the arid
regions, the artesian well districts and To-
calities, and at some length elucidsted his
views on the local irrigation districts in
connection with the drainage areas of the
region.
The Major read to the committee a bill
drafted by him, which provides for topo-
graphic and photographic survey of the
arid regions, and for the segregation of the
same into irrigable, pastoral and timber
lands, the two latter to remain the property
of the United States, for the use of the
people of the irrigation districts.
The bill provides for Federal control
over the interstate waters, and formation
of water districts under the control OF
States and Territories.
