GEN. REYES ARRIVES
Party Now. on Way to Wash
ington to Interview Pres
ident Roosevelt.
HAS SATCHEL FULL OF COLD
Hopes to Induce United States to Keep
Hands OFF the isthmus-if unsuc-
eessfui Then Bloody War viii Fob
iow--Wiii Reach Capital Saturday.

New Orleans, Nov 27.-General
Ruiz Reyes. representing the govern
ment of Colombia, who is on his way
to Washington to intercede in behal.
Of his government in connection with
the recognition of the republic of Pan
anna, arrived here on the steamer Bey
erly. General Reyes is accompanied
by General Peclio Aspinal, General
George Holequin and General L
Cabalerro They boarded the Beverly
at Port Limon and came direct to
this city.
General Reyes and party did not 6
to any of the hotels. They drove te
the Louisville and Nashville Offices
and bought tickets through to Ncs
York and made every effort to avoid
publicity. The general has satchcl
full of Colombian gold and paid for
the tickets in coin of that republic
The party left for Washington
where they will arrive Saturday morn
ing. Before his departure General
Reyes gave out an interview much OF
the line of that cabled from Colon q
the Associated Press.
He said he was going to see the
president and hoped to induce tbs
United States to keep hands off the
isthmus and allow the Colombian gov
eminent to regain its lost territory
II the United States would not agree
to this, then the Colombians would
march an army of 100000 men across
the mountains to Panama. and meet
ing only the 1000 isthmians, would
soon regain the isthmus. Then the
United States would have to negotiate
with Colombia or build the Nicara
guam canal He said the Colomnians
had no thought of declaring wal
against the United States, because
they saw it would be a futile effort.

The air of cities is impregnated with
dust and filth. To combat their dele
FERROUS effects the streets should be
freely ventilated and watered. Wind
and rain are the great destroyers of
dust. From the fields the wind lifts
the debris of vegetation-pollen seeds,
spores of fungi and bacteria; the dust
of the soil--silica, silicate of alumni
ium, carbonate and phosphate of lime
and peroxide of iron. In and proceed
ing from volcanic regions fine particles
of carbon and dried mud are taken up
and waited hundreds or even thou
sands of miles. In and round about
cities and towns the finely ground dust
of the pavements, fragments of straw,
hair. stable manure, debris of insects,
SCOT, epithelia from floor sweepings or
shaken from rugs, carpets and bedding,
together with gases and other volatile
emanations from factories, rendering
establishments, abattoirs, tanyards and
compost heaps of all sorts, though not
of the air, are in 1t, in SO much as to

YACHT RACING.
This Expensive Sport Was Begun In
ENGLAND In 1902

This Expensive Sport Was Begun In
England In 1862.
Though vessels answering to the
character of yachts were in use by
royal personages from an early date
Queen Elizabeth, for instance, had one
built at Cowes, Isle of Wight, in 1888
the word yacht" was not used until
the year 1860, when the Dutch present
ed a "jacht" named the Mary to
Charles H., says the London Chroni-
cle In Evelyn's Diary, under Oct. /,
1861, occurs the entry, 81 sailed this
morning with his majesty in one of his
yachts, vessels not known among us
till the Dutch East India company pre-.
scented that curious piece to the king,
being very excellent sailing vessels"
Yacht racing commenced in 1862,
when Charles H., who had some yachts
built for him by Sir Phineas PETIT,
wagered $500 that a yacht of his would
beat Dutch one owned by his brother,
the Duke of York, afterward James II.
But the growth of yacht sailing was
slow, and it is not until 1920 that an
= dutueullC TeCOiu VI ydCnl CluD Is
found, in which year the Cork Harbor
Water club, now known as the Royal
Cork Yacht club was formed. In 1912
a similar club, the Yacht club, was
formed at Cowes by some fifty yachts
men. This club in 1920 attracted the
notice Of the Duke of Clarence, after
ward William w., when its title was
altered to the Royal Yacht squadron,
Cowes. Fourteen years later William
~. presented the first royal cup to this
club. But in 1851 only 500 yachts were
in existence. Since the international
yacht race of that year the increase in
the number has been immense.
In America, the Chronicle says, "the
sport may be said to have commenced
in 1914, In which year the New York
Yacht club was formed, and the his
tory of that club is practically the his
tory of American yachting.

ALMANACS ARE ANCIENT.

an authority on the subject, states that
the earliest almanac of which the au-
thor's name is preserved was that Of
Solomon Jarchus, who lived in the mid
die of the twelfth century.
A primitive English calendar or al
manac was called the prime staff, "
''rein-stock" or "clog almanac" 1t was
made of wood, bone or horn, about
eight inches long, like a square ruler.
On this the days were marked by a
series of notches, every seventh being
of larger size The festivals were indi-
Gated by symbols, as were the golden
number and the cycle of the moon.
Specimens of this ''clog almanac may
be seen at the British museum and In
museums or libraries at oxford, Cam

size were hung "at one end of the man.
