In picking its candidate for Its third
successive nomination 10 the Samoan
presidency Germany chose Or. JoanneS
leaftel, the district judge ut Dar-cs-Sa-
lam. in the German East Africa colony.
The choice was significant; IL indlcat-
ed that Germany had tested the indif-
ference OF the other powers. and had
ventured TO put Samoan affairs Into
the hands OF one OF It's colonial off,
Gals. 1t is only politically that DR..
Raffcl Is Il dangerous factor. personally
he is all that could be desired. F;du-
cation has put n fine polish on innate
refinement. When he first arrived 1T
Apia he was almost independent: he
was inclined TO be sOciable. That was
novelty on the beach. Germans are
obliged 10 observe toward German OIL
Gals the recognition of official super
iority. Other people are not obliged
to copy the German attitude, but IL
they Il" not then as II rule they do not
find themselves admitted to the COM
pany OF German officials. When DR..
Raffcl first came he made ,acqua!nt-
unce alIably with everybody, and sceui-
Ell 10 think that he could discuss public
affairs informally with the citizens east
OF the slender Afulval stream who
might be English or American, Just as
he could talk over the same topics west
OF that stream in Matafelc, which is
German. Actually he spoke disre-
apectfully IN those first days Of the
Presidents dwelling. He said it was
too far from everybody, that II had no
shelter, that the trade wind blew Il
gale through 1t all day long that he
would like to live at the other end OF
town. In a house between the American
and British consulates. This lasted
for days. while Apia wondered. Then
the president saw 4 great light. and
went off promptly to live where his
predecessors had lived. In some way
he acquired a fund OF information
which made him IL different man.
Above all. he was made acquainted
with the fact that In Samoa the Ger
man attitude extends to the veriest de-
tails OF life.

SECOND BATTLE OF FLOWERS
AT CANNES.

A dispatch from Cannes says: a is-
tality seemed to pursue the second bat
tie of flowers. 1t was postponed from
Thursday to Saturday because of the
national mourning and eventually only
took place Monday, the weather
being too unsettled on Saturday.
However, everything was in favor
OF the success of the battle, which
turned out to be infinitely prettier sud
more animated than the last. The
tribuues were crowned with fashion
sad beauty, and Cannes has rarely
seen such eSquisitely decorated car
risgeS.
One magnificent equipsge was NJ. and
Niue. de Pomeroy's landau, complete.
ly mssked with Magechal Niel roses,
orchids, hyacinthe and great scarlet
bows, holding bouquets on the aides.
T. created . veritabe sensation. Ar
ether superb landau was covered with
nothing but pink and white roses and
lowering over the flowers Yss u butter
flg made OF violets, with transparent
gauza wings. Nine. Caprou's victoria
as usual. was Que Of the prettiest csr-
rlages present.
In q delightful little "chsrette an
glsise," trimmed with mimOss ana
slreaners OF yellow ribbon and drawn
by little donkey were the three love
ly children of Mrs. Cotton; one,
dressed ss a Pierro5, was the diminu-
tive coacbman. MS. Alhusen's Ian
eau. trimmed with roses aud vi0lets,
was also most effective. But how i'm
possible to give an adequate description
Of all the gay cars and carriages which
passed b fore the tribu1es! From half
past two until four the merry battle
ragged furiously; bouquets and buDches
o. flowers went cigclirg in the air until
! il seemed storm OF blossoms.
10 the "JTiounes d'honreur" were
h Duke OF Cambridge, Lord and
Lady 8rougham and Vaux, Prince and
Princess Radziwill, Comte and Confess
Chandon de Briailes, Admiral Fi'z
George, Mr. aud Mrs. Frederic Walker,

Last night q most brilliant soiree
took place st the Ladies Club. Every
table in the big dining room was taken
and more than hundred guests sat
down 10 dinner.
After dinner the talented Breton

A OF NOTED FOX.
For Years He Had Been a Faithful
Stand BY of Eager Hunters.

For Years He Had Been a Faithful
Stand BY Of Eager Hunters.
George Washington, the hoary and
sporty old fox that has lived in the
South Valley hills at Valley Forge, Pa,
for so many years and has figured in a
score or more hunts, met with a tragic
end recently by being torn to pieces by
a pack of hounds.
About a dozen members of the Perki-
omen, Port Kennedy, Washington and
Black Rock hunts, with a pack Of 20
! hounds, turned out the other morning
for a hunt. After beating around the
| valley hills for an hour the hounds sue
ceeded in jumping old George Wash
ington, and a lively chase followed.
Foxy did some pretty lively running
among the hills for half an hour, and
then made a break across the open
country toward New Ce~nterville, with
the hounds in close pursuit. From Cedar
Hollow the fox made a good run through
Charlestown township and then headed
for Valley Forge, with the hounds very
close to his heels. Finding that he was
likely to be picked up in the open
stretch of country that lay before him,
he popped into a grounding hole when
about half way back, and non too soon,
for the hounds were close on him. The
hunters got picks and shovels, and as
the hole proved shallow they uncovered
him after an hOur'S digging.
The fox was muzzled, and Darl Davis
of the Black Rock hunt seated him on
the pommel of his saddle and started off
for Valley Forge surrounded by the
pack. He had not proceeded far, how
ever, when the old fox made a wild leap
and went bounding among the hounds.
He had scarcely touched the ground be-
fore a dozen of the dogs were on him,
and before Mr. Davis could alight from
his horse the old fox had been nearly
torn to pieces. The hounds were driven
away, and when the hunters came up
and saw what had happened they al
most cried, for they would rather have
lost a horse or COW than lost old George.
Mr.. Davis secured the brush. Old
George was a great rune and had
figured in many big hunts. He was fire.
quently captured and kept for big drop
hunts, and while he often made narrow
escapes he always managed to save him
self by some trick or good stroke Of
luck. All regret that he was fated to
meet such an unsportsmanlike end
