NOTABLE EGG COLLECTION.

The fine series of eggs of the ex-
tinct great aux (Alca impennis), col
lected by the late Mr.. Campley of
Scarborough, has been acquired by
Rowland Ward, of Piccadily. Several
of these eggs are unique in their
markings, and thus of more than
ordinary interest. Two of the speci-
mems were formerly in the possession
of Rowland Wards father. 1t may be
noted that the great aux eggs have
risen considerably in value since Mr..
Champney began collecting; fine
examples now sell for 300 guineas or
over, and even a cracked specimen
realized the former sum at auction in
1889. At the sale of the above men
toned crack specimen it was stated
that there were 81 great auk's eggs
known to be in existence, af which a
considerable number are in museums.

lows:
THE Washington note came like a
ray of sunshine from stormcloud for
the Jewish population, especially the
laoring classes, who conceived the
hope that favorable turn must result
from the interference of mighty Amer
lea. How naive these unhappy people
are, eagerly reaching for any straw
promising them rescue. But their
jubiIation has been of short duration.
The only effect the American note has
had so far is an order, according to
Roumanian newspapers, that no more
emigration passports will be issued
without the usual tax of 81. 1t is
even reported that no emigration pass
ports will be granted. The spirit of
the government is: We are masters
here Nevertheless, it is disposed to
be polite and considerate towards the
United States. 1t intends to show this
by preventing emigration to the Unit
ed States.
There is much talk here about
Yankee arrogance" but they laughed
in their sleeves so long as the Amer
lean note was without European sup
port. But news that England had fol-
lowed with a similar step caused vex-
alton. If the continental powers act
jointly it is possible the Roumanian
Jewish question may become acute,
but the government has had much ex-
perience in meeting protests in behalf
of the Jews"
