JArAS's NEW MONOPOLY.
All the World Must Now Go TO Her for
Camuuor,

One of the unconsidered triflcs that the
mikado has picked up as the result OF the
Chinese war is the monopoly OF camphor,
SAYS the Indian Agriculturist.
That drug is produced only in Japan ana
Forinosa. and. though variety known as
Bornco Cainphor, is obtained from Bornco
and Sunatra. 1T cannot compete with the
product of the evergreen laurel of the east
ern Asiatic islands. Inasingch as camphor,
apart from its many and varied thera pcutlc
uses. is au essential ingredient in the coinpo-
sition OF nearly all the new explosives, the
demand for II is very large.
The Japanese are well ware of the valu-
able monopoly they have blundered upon,
rather than sought. and have already begun
TO limit theexport by imposing duties Asa
natural consequence, the price OF the drug
has risen rapidly since the war came to an
end. and bids fair to rise higher. Happily
the commercial instinct of the japanese
statesmen is as sound as their political in
stinct and they are not likely to abuse the
monopoly they have acquired by forcing
the price up to prohibitive rates.
The chief concern of the japanese gov
ernnent will for some time to come be the
finding of money to pay for the ships and
munitions of war, which will secure the mi
kado in the possession of the spoils he has
already won. Properly handled aud wisely
administered. camphor should prove valul-
able source of revenue, and contribute a
handsome quota toward the cost OF the mill
tary preparations which pertain to the
peace of the dragon kingdom.

TO promulgate To- you, most holy aud i'm

EXCITING GAME PROMISED
.Today's Struggle on the Gridiron
Should Prove a Hot One.
University of Virginia and tile Co
1umbian University to Line Upat
Capitol Park.

The contest on the gridiron at Capitol
Park this afternoon between the Columbian
University and the University OF Virginia
gives promise Of being an Interesting and
exciting game.
These teams are so well-known To local
lovers of the sport that the crowd should
DE fully as large as was present at the
Thanksgiving Day game between the Co
lumbian Uniyersityand the Columbia AthIe,ic
Club. At that time the c. A. c. was
thought to b. so much stronger than the
varsity team that the game was expected
To he i very One-sided one The varsity
lads furnished Il surprise, however, as
they came within an ace OF taking the c.
A. C.'s into camp
Since then they have been practicing
at their grounds, ut Capitol Park, almost
daily, and with the new material tnat
has lateiy been added TO the team should
give the Virginia boys hard battle.
The fact that Phil King, the famous
Princeton quarterback, will he referee. and
that Frank BItterworth, the noted Yale
fuliback, will umpire, will, in itself, draw
many football cranks 10 the park. ormsby
McCammon VIII officiate as Iinesman for
the ColIinbians.
The Virginia team will reach town this
morning and Will go direct To- the Riggs
while in town. Besides the men who VIII
take part in the game, a large following OF
the college men, bedccEed with orange
and blue ribbons, will come along with
the team to do the roofing for them
The Nirginians have been in regular
training since Thanksgiving Day, when
they met the team from the University
OF North Carolina at Richmond. The lineup
tomorrow VIII be exactly the same as il
was when they met the North Carolina
team, and this in itself is sufficient guar
antce thatthere viii be no weak spots ia the
makeup of the eleven.
The addition OF Alton, Clapp. Busey, and
Avis to the localtcam will greatly strengthen
IL and there is no doubt but what they VIII
put up much stronger game than they Il d
when they met the c. A. C's on Thanks
giving Day. Capt. Cockrill has lost no
opportunity to strengthen the team and
when the boys did not have an opportunity
to go TO the park to practice the signals
were practiced by the hour at the college.
The lineup of the teams will be about as

Tomorrow President Cleveland will have
an interesting, but rather diininutiv
visitor, who will do considerable talking,
but it is safe to say thai hi} conversation
will not pertain to either the Venezuelan
or Treasury question.
He will merely tell the President that
he is awful glad to See yhHK ask him for
his photograph and autbi.fa ph, and then
graphically describe his travels.
The young man who win call is Richard
j. Vincent of New York City. He is
known, however, all through Europe,
Asia, Africa, Australia, and, in fact, the
entire continents. as Louis j. Morning
star. He has visited every country OF
note and talked with nearly every king
potentate. czar, emperor, governor, aud
mayor in the world.
The most remarkable thing i'm connection
with his globe trotting is that he has
never spent nor received the smallest
amount of money. He travels free and Will
only accept firs,-class passages. He puts
up Mt the best hotels and never pays a
penny for that privilege.
GENUINE GLOBE TRoTTER.
1t is well to state here that Vincent
is not a tramp. He is globe trotter-a
distinction and difference. He is now a
little more than fourtcrn years old, and
began his ''trotting'' when he was but
twelve. He is a native of New York
City and typical young Gotharnite. He
is not IN the employ of anybody for
advertising purposes when he travels. but
does il in order TO cbtain material for
a book that he is now eng aged in writing.
Folio wing is given the itinerary and in
cidents OF his famous around-the worm

New York to Hamburg, by steamer
Augusta Victoria: Berlin, 70 see Emperor
william; TO st. Petersburg, by rail, to

Despite All His Troubles.

Willie Kingsley, bright, rosy faced,
blue eyed and brown haired lad of fifteen
years, entered police station No. 1 at 8
O'Clock last night and doffing his tattered
cap to Desk Sergeant Eberly, asked for
lodging. The sergeant referred him to the
Municipal lodging house. and there Capt.
Cutler mi6istered TO his wants till today.
Willie is a hoy who presents the appear
ancc of a fellow who has been entirely over
looked by Santa Claus and sighted by
providence. He hailed from ST. Louis,
and is making his way to Baltimore by foot
and freight, where he hopes to obtain work
The reason for this hope is that he has
understood from other people whom he
mas met on the road that Baltimore is a
good place for a fellow when he's on his
uppers.
BLAMES HIS sTEPMOTHER.
Willie tells tale of stepmother. and also
narrates experiences which are often hea ri
in police stations, but Willie obtained a
careful hearing for himself because of his
youth. frankness and honest good looks.
His father works on the Mississippi
steamer Grey Eagle of the Anchor line,
and Willie says that he brought down the
wrath Of heaven on his household by marry
ing with his mothers sister, but who is
no more like his mother than Hyperian
to satyr. His mother died about one
year ago and the tear-soaked oiihad not set

coldly furnish forth the marriage feast.

his parson for help, but that good old
gentleman commanded him TO return To
his home, and be dutiful to his mother.
OUT on 4 FREIGHT TRAIN.
He boarded a freight train at night in the
East st. Louis yards and rode between
bumpers to Chicago. Since then he has been
working towards Baltimore, and reached
Washington yesterday. When he showed up
a the lodging house. lie had had nothing to
eat for a day, and said proudly that hc had
not begged cent during all his travels,
earning enough to keep him from starving
by backing boots and doing odd Jobs Ia

His father knew that he was MAJ king his

Council Developments.

The City Council meeting on
Tuesday night developed an inter
nal spirit Of faction that may &C.
count for some things in the past
and more in the future.
Messrs. Haly. Fortune, Utter
back and l1effner have been
"holding over since last Novem-
Der under the custom Of the old
charter that allowed councilmen
to hold their seats till their sue
cessors were elected and qualified.
The Republicans couldn't find
anybody who was willing to take
the chances Of being elected and
holding seats in body whose
title, as they claimed, was tainted.
So they didn't nominate anybody.
The Democrats didn't nominate
anybody for probably much
the same reason. AT least no one
ran. So the gentlemen before
named held over.
The Court of Appeals having
lately ruled that an election must
be held to fill the vacancy where
the term expired in November, it
wasjudged necessary to go through
with the performance Of electing
these gentlemen over again, SO to
speak.
All went smoothly enough in
the cases OF Messrs. Haly, Fortune
and Heffner-but when Mr..
Utterback's name was reached
there was a hitch. Mr. Joseph
Rodman was elected in his place.
The "invidious distinction crept
to the front. Mr.. Utterback was
served with a notice to quit.

BRAND THE CLAIM AS
FALSE.
Worlds Fair Officials Expose a
Pretender to an Award.

CHICAGO, Ill. -One of the odd
results Of the Worlds Fair is the
claim now made to awards by
some who were not even exhibitors.
Officials Of the Exposition have
not as yet taken final action in the
matter. believing the quick wit Of
the people will detect the spurious
claims. But 10 the case of a
New York Baking Powder that
has been directed. He brands the
claim Of this pretender as false.
declaring "neither the records of
this department nor the official
catalogue Of the Worlds Colum-
bian Exposition, show that this
New York Company was an ex-
hibitor; consequently it could not
receive an award at the Worlds
Fair.
Thos. who fairly won their
honors at the Fair seem disposed
10 treat this fraud as any other
fraud should be treated. The
Price Baking Powder company, of
Chicago. having received the
highest award, say they are con-
WINGED their claims, and those OF
all other holders of rightful honors,
will be fully indicated by the
public.
