PEARL ISLAND FISHERIES,
The Panama Government Offers to
Sell the Exclusive Rights


Il A Gudger- Consul General for the
United States at Panama informs the
State Department that the Panama Coy
ernment has offered for sale the rights Of
the fisheries in the PndTi Islands for a
term of fifteen years. Consul General
Gudgcr adds:
For something like a hundred years
and more, the small group of islands
fifty miles to the south Of Panama. known
as the Pearl Islands, have been famous
for their remarkable yield Of pearls and
coral. During certain seasCas OF the year,
when the waters are unusually clear,
these waters are worked by divers, and
maay pearls of great value have been
found there The pearls rank well in
grade and color; in the latter respect,
they range from the pure white TO green
and LEAD gray and frequently Jet black
These fishing grounds have been a
source Of great revenue to the Govern
r-lent as well as to the few more fortu-
nate finders. Some little expense is at
tached to the business, as il is necessary
70 have experienced divers and men thor
cughIy versed in the business
1t is estimated that the shell of the
oyster, commonly known as the mother
of-pearI. if trimmed and shipped 10 Eu-
rope or the United States, would be suffi-
cient to defray all ordinary. expenses and
leave the find Of pearl as a clear profit.
It is not common to have valuable finds.
yet the fisher is sometimes rewarded with
pearls OF great worth. Some TWO years
ago. a small boy, while diving in the
shallow water more for sport than work,
found pearl which ne sold 10 a local
dealer for 81. 900 silver tS1,760)- This dealer
delivered the same pearl to buyer in
Panama and received $1,000 silver S4,4GJJ
for i: This pearl Is now in Paris and an
offer Of s. go gold has been made there
for and refused
Formerly those who worked in these
waters paid a percentage on their finds;
later. an annual tax. 1t seems that now,
the Government has decided to sell the ex-
elusive right to the highest bidder for
rseTiOd Of fifteen years

Government clerk, as Postmaster, as
Mayor, and finally as a leading
business man. presents an unbT0k-
en- record Of worthy service and Of
unblemished integrity. An interesting
fact in his life IS that he was d member
Of every Inaugural Committee since
1871
Like many other men in the opening
days Of the civil war, Colonel BeTret
was misunderstood and prosecuted in
consequence. In 1861, when as Mayor
of Washington he was ex-offici0 Fresi-
dent of the Board OF Police Commits
sIOners, under a law requiring all Off
GERS Of the United States to take the
oath of allegiance. he refused to do so
on the ground that he had already sub
scribed TO it on taking office as Mayor.
For this he was arrested and confined
in Fort Lafayette for a few weeks. BE-
ing released by order Of Mir. Lincoln.
with whom he was on terms of personal
friendship for the remainder Of the ar.
Before his advent TO this city, Colonel
Berret was elected to the Maryland
Legislature when barely Of age. and
was reelected in the following year.
He then accepted a cIerkship in the
Registers Office of the Treasury Fifty
years after his first appearance on the
floor at Annapolis, having in the mean
time resumed his residence in Mary
land, he was again member Of her
Legislature. This time he was the
Oldest, as formerly he had been the
youngest, member of the body.
\ polished and courtIy gentleman OF
the arcien regime, Colonel Berret has
been one of the most conspicuous fea-
lures Of Capital society for three gen
erations. His residence here covered all
the years from 1899 practically TO the
present time When ne came 10 Wash

ways in which they undertake TO do it
are legion, but rarely result in any real

consider that they have a perfect right
to enquire into the love affairs Of their

RUSSIAN ADVERTISING MATTER
1t Must Pass Through the Censor,s
Hands Before DISSEMINATION

Consul General Holloway, of st. Peters
burg informs the State Department that
the Russian Government is very. strict in
the matter Of the distribution OF foreign
advertising matter He says:
Several American exporters. desiring 10
reach the trade in their respective lines
in Russia, ordered catalogues and other
advertising matter printed in New York in
the Russian language and shipped them 10
Russia, to be addressed and mailed by
agents in Russia; but they were refused
admission because they had not complied
with the Russian laws governing the cen
sorship of the press, which requires that
everything printed in the Russian Ian
guage must receive the approval of the
chief of the central committee of foreign
censorship before il can be admitted or
circulated in Russia
American exporters who desire 10 cir
Culate advertising matter printed in the
Russian language in Russia must address
petition to His ExceIIeucy Count Alex
ander Mouravieff. Chief of the Central
Committee of Foreign Censorship de-
Scro1nS the character of the DubljCa fie1
and its purpose. to which must be at
tached copies of the PubIca ton for which
admission Is desired PRAYING for DarTnis-
sion TO admit and circulate the same in
Russia To this petition must be attached
Two Russian revenue stamps of the vaIfa
of n cents, preferably two of u cents

receive immediate attention if written in
the Russian or French language, though
the same would be translated and for
yarded If sent direct to the United States
Ambassador or Consul General at St Pc
terSburg, If accompanied by the amount
necessary TO purchase the revenue

tncendiary matter has been circulated
in every form IN Russia; hence the au-
