Russia Gets Galtee More.

John Gubbins the owner of> Galtee
More, winner of last years. Derby, has
just sold the horse to the Russian gov
eminent for 1925, 600. Great pressure
was brought to bear on Mr.. Gubbins
not to let the famous animal leave Eng
land, but he replied that he was in the
business for "a purpose that had nothing
to do with his health, and if, any Brit
ISL thurman wanted his horse more than
the Russians did there was & way to get
it. Then the pressure relaxed.

Nipped the Students.

The Rev. DR.. Edward Everett Hale
says in The Outlook that he was ap-
pointed last spring as judge Of sope
prose exercises in one Of our older col
leges. 81 was proud and glad to give
the time which the examination of the
exercises required. What did I find?"
he asks and answers: 81 found of
three different papers submitted to me
in competition on the same subject that
all the writers had stolen from reviews
which they suppose [ had not seen long
passages and copied them as their own.
In this particular case it happened that
the three writer's copied the same pas
sage, hoping that the judges of their ex-
ercises would be ignorant enough to Be
deceiyed''

CURRENT MISCELLANY.

1t does not often fall to the lot Of a
navigator nowadays to discover a new
island, but such distinction is claimed
by Captain Pande of the Norwegian
ship Prince Edward, recently arrived
here from Carrizal, Chile. The captain
was on his way to Philadelphia from
that distant port when, on March 8, in
the south Atlantic ocean, he discovered
a new and unknown island in latitude
40 degrees south and longitude 80 de-
grees 30 minutes west.
The island is not very large, only 500
feet long and 40 feet wide, but Captain
Pande thinks it big enough to bear
name, and he is thinking of naming it
Dewey island, in honor of the distin
guished admiral. The new land, which
is undoubtedly Of volcanic origin, lies
in the track of all vessels rounding Cape
Horn outward or homeward bound. The
water in its vicinity was found to be
very warm. The sea broke over it with
great force, and the waters had dis
turbed appearance. There was also an
entire absence Of the we'll defined cur
rents known to all navigators.
Soundings i'll the vicinity, made at
Captain Pande's orders, showed the wa
ter to be 2, 600 feet deep all around the
island. At long distance the new land
appears to be we'll defined, but at night
vessel strikingly it, as there is nothing
to warn mariners of impending danger.

TO HIS COY LOVE.
IA canzonet.7


pray thee leave, love me no more;
Call home the heart you gave me;
but in vain that saint adore
That can, but will not, save me.
These poor half kisses kill me quite.
Was ever man thus served?
Amid an ocean of delight
For pleasure to be starved.
Show me no more those snowy breasts
With azure riverets branched,
Where, while mine eye with plenty feasts,
Yet is my thirst not stanched.
o Tantalus, thy pains ne'er tell!
By me thou art prevented.
tbs nothing to be plagued in hell
But thus in heaven tormented.
Clip me no more in those dear arms,
Nor thy life's comfort call me.
Oh, these are but too powerful charms
And do but more inthrall me!
But see how patient 1 am grown
In all this coil about thee.
Come, nice thing; let thy heart alone;
1 cannot live without thee.

FOR THE SOUTH AND WEST
Chicago Commercial and Agricultural
Exposition Scheme Has
Been Revived.

Chicago, Feb. 5.-An exposition in Chi
cago of the commercial and agricultural
products of the South which shall rival
anything of the kind ever held is now
among the probabilities. The object of the
proposed exposition will be to promote
closer commercial and trade relations be-
tween the West and the South and to open
up a larger field to the products OF the
Southern states.
Primarily the subject will be TO divert
large percentage as possible of the South
ern trade 10 the West. For years the bulk
of this trade has gone East. and Western
merchants, now that commercial organiza-
tons are tlouriShing. deem it time that the
West should get its share.
w. A. Giles left yesterday for Tampa
Fla; and his grip was loaded with am
exposition idea. He has gone, TO attend the
South and West commercial congress as
the Chicago representative of the National
Business League. He bears commission
from Governor Tanner which accredits him
the duly appointed representative OF the
commercial interests OF the state of I'LL
nOis.
The Chicago branch OF the National Busi-
ness League saw the opportunity presented
to promote the exposition idea, and Mr..
Giles has been instructed TO work without
ceasing for its accomplishment. He has
with him an array OF facts and figures
which he expects will convince t;, every dele
to the glory of Southern and Western COM
merCe and promote ties between the sec
tions which would result in incalculable
good.
The idea is not new one. but 1t has
been in abeyance for number of years
and many supposed 1t was dead. During
the worlds fair many leading commercial
men of tho West and South talked the
matter over and it was then decided that
an effort would be made to hold such an
exposition in Chicago as soon as the time
seemed feasible.
The necessary sentiment had been worked
up when II was announced that the Nash
VILE exposition would he held in 1897. The
promoters of the Southern exposition talked
the matter over and it was concluded it
would be unwiSe 10 antagOnize the South
by trying to hold the exposition near the
date of the Nashville affair. In Difference
to that project it was shelved for the time
being. 1t was revived some time ago, and
its promoters have been quietly at work
getting it on IT'S feet again, as the occasion
now seems opportune.
During the South and West commercial
congress Mr.. Giles will lay plans before
the body and will endeavor to get the ap
proval of the delegates There is little
doubt of his success. the officers of the
league say. If this proves true the eXposi-
ton will certainly be held here within the
next wear. One of the main aims of the
present congress is to consider means of
Increasing the interchange of all kinds of
merchandise and manufactured articles be-
tween the West and South.
Tho agricultural interests are not to he
forgotten, for one of the most important
objects is to promote the movement of
grain and all other Western products TO
Southern distributing points and to South
ern rOrtS for export.
