German Empress an Artist.

It is not generally known that the
German empress is a SCULPTOR and
painter of more than usual ability. In
her husbands study at Potsdam there
is a most lifelike bust of the emperor
in bronze, while several of the young
princes have also been reproduced in
marble. Many sketches and paintings
by the empress adorn the walls of the

everywhere that room can be found Tor I
the growing of a tree. Arbor Day was
set apart to teach the reason why trees /
should be loved and protected. The beau
ty and utility Of trees are causes for their |
protection. This is the object Of Arbor |
Day In the schools. Let us learn OF trees
as a benefceDce of every living creature.
They bud, blossom, spread their branches
and put forth their fruit and foliage, there
by furnishing shade aud comfort for All;
teaching US the beautiful lesson of unset
fishness by continually giving, giving, Civ
ing out the best they possess for the hap
pness of every body and every thing, ask
ing nothing In return, and yet never be-
coming impoverished. always bountifuIIy
supplied.
Every child should be impressed with
the Importance of assisting in planting out
trees on Arbor Day, as it is only by in
structing children in ways OF self sacrifice
and belpfulnrss that they are enabled to
grow into useful, happy and successful
men and women AS the children cease
to be children they will feel the spir-
ituaI and refining influence, the symbolic
beauty of the trees
''The thoughtful youth will see noble
image OF the strong man struggling with
obstacles that he overcomes, in the great
tree wrestling nightly with wintry gales
and extOrtlng glorious music from the
storms which 1t triumphanty defes''
Arbor Day will make the country visi-
bly, more beautiful every year. Every lit.
tie community. every school district, will
contribute to the good work. The school
house will gradually become an ornament.
as II is already the great benefit of the vii.
lage, and the children will be put in the
way OF living upon more friendly and in
teiiigent terms with the bountifui nature
which IS so friendly to US.
We hope that every man, woman and
enid In our town and county will do
something toward observing Arbor Day in
a practical way; although you may not
own the home In which you are now liy.
ing, or you may not intend to teach in the
same school another year, this does not de.
bar you from the glorious privilege of
planting trees to beautify the premises.

creatures that may pass that way in future

love, or act OF kindness, is ever lost. but
sets in motion streams of influences which
will flow onward, cheering the lives and
enriching the souls of many others.
Let US urge that all who read this will
endeavor to observe Arbor Day in a way
that Will be most profitable to somebody or
something at some future time.

Shamrock III. 10 Fast.

Gorouck, Scotland, May 1.-THE two
Shamrocks were sent off over racing
course Of 40 miles, starting from
Gorouck around marks at Powder
buoy, Hunters quay and Skelmorelie.
The wind blew about eight knots and
was Strengthening.
The yachts ultimately were sent OF
on real racing trial. The challenger
out pointed, outran and outreached the
older boat. They ran first with spin
makers to Cloch, five miles, and the
Shamrock III. caught her opponent and
led her quite quarter of mile at this
point. The boats we're then broad
reached to Skelmorelie buoy. The
wind was a trife unsteady and the
challenger was rather better served
She beat Shamrock l. hollow, turning
the Skelmorelie end Of her nine miles
sail nearly II minutes ahead. Reach
ing back up channel to Cloch the chah
lenger further improved until she was
two miles ahead. The finishing stretch
was by the wind and the challenger
continued to open a way and scored a
decisive victory, finishing IA minutes
and 16 seconds In front Of the older

WANTS $25, 10000 DOWN.
After That a Million a Year for the
Canal Zone.


The convocation of the Colombia,
congress for January 20 is believed
by those acquainted with government
affairs to mean that President Mar
roquin is confident of having enough
support to assure the approval of the
canal treaty. Gerardo Pulecio, a promi
nent member of the conservative party
discusses the canal question in the
Correo Nacional, published at Bogota
He says the renewal of the canal con.
cession granted by President San Gle
mente is legal the government having
constitutional powers to take this step
No company or European government
is willing to risk any money in the
canal venture after the De Lesseps
failure, therefore the United States
can only undertake the construction
of the canal with chances of success
Senior Pulecio says as Colombia labors
under load Of 650,000,0O0 pesos OF
paper money the present generation
and its descendants must be saved
He proposes the following plan:
The United States to pay Colombia
for the canal concessio. the sum OF
$25,000000 without discount, conces
sion or reduction, and 100000 year
ly for the canal zone. Colombia to be
free of any claims that may arise
against the canal company. The
United States is to recognize the
sovereignty Of Colombia on the 18th
mus. The other considerations put
down by Senior Pulecio are the same
as those that have been specified n
the treaty.

BOWEN A SMOOTH DIPLOMAT.
Blue Book Story Of Venezuelan
Settlement

How Great Britain, Germany and
Italy could for the asking have Sc
cured from Venezuela preferential
treatment in the settlement of their
claims had they asked in time and
thereby been relieved of the necessity
of appeal to The Hague, with its cx-
penses and delay, is told in the blue
book which Mr.. Herbert W. Bowen has
prepared. The book shows that Presi-
dent Castro conferred on Mr.. Bowen
two sets of powers, one authorizing
him to conduct negotiations exclusive
ly with the representatives Of the al
lied powers, and the granting him full
authority to effect settlement with
the representatives Of all nations hav-
ing claims against Venezuela.
Mr.. Bowen, on the day of his arrival
here. called at the embassies of the al
lied powers to present his credentials.
He presented first his full powers,
though expecting that these would be
objected to promptly, in which event
he intended to fall back on the original
powers granted him. Instead, the
Italian and British ambassadors and
the German charge accepted witho 1t
question Mr.. Bowens letters empow-
ering him to negotiate with all the
creditor nations. In so doing they
waived at the outset the question o:
separate or preferential treatment for
their governments, and this point was
not raised until the Deace nrotocols
were practically ready for signature.
