WENT BY DEFAULT.

Hearing in the replevin proceedings
brought by the Canton-Akron COM
pany against the Baltimore & Ohio
railroad was to have taken place before
Justice Reigner Thursday morning. No
one appeared for the railroad and the
case will probably go by default. The
case grew out of the alleged theft of
some rails from West South street
when the Baltimore & Ohio tore up
the street railway tracks.

wall over the chair is a picture The
carpet is red and has green flowers on

It never occurred TO the chief to in
quire where the woman learned all these
details or what their significance was
but he scented the capture of a desperate
band OF criminals and possible glory TO
his name.
Therefore he called three OF his best
detectives and a squad OF his biggest
policemen. armed them with warrants.
and sent them out in the most nicely
painted patrol wagon in stock.

PROTEST AGAINST ROOT
ON ALASKAN TRIBUNAL
Canadian Premier Attacks Personnel
of American Delegation.

OTTAWA. Ontario. March 16.-The Sc
lection of Secretary Root and Senators
Lodge ard Turner TO represent the Uni
ted states on the Alaska Boundary Com
mission was criticised from both sides OF
the house OF commons during the debate
over the address in reply to the speech
from the throne.
The leader of the opposition. Mr.. Bor-
den. offered to support any resolution OF
protest. which would have the effect Of
strengthening the governments hands.
Sir Wilfrid Laurier. in replying. con-
tended that the decision OF the United
States to allow the question OF sover-
eighty over Dyea and Skagway TO be ar
bitrated was a distinct concession.
Il agree" he said. that IL We are to
appoint commissioners to this tribunal
they must not be partisans, but men OF
highest reputation in the British en-
pire.
we had at one time reason TO be-
lieve that on the American side. as on
the British side. jurists OF repute would
be taken from the bench. IL seems an
omalous that Mr.. Root. a member of
the Admin istraticn OF President Roose-
welt, and therefore one OF the suitOrs in
the case. should sit on the bench as a
judge.
Mr.. Turner has expressed himself
against the Canadian contention. and
Mr.. Lodge has certainly given express
sion 20 views OF q character to cause
reflection upon the advisa biIity OF piac-
ing him upon the court"
The imperial authorities have signi-
fed their approval Of the Dominion gov
ernment's recommendation that the Brit
ish members OF the Alaskan boundary
tribunal consist OF Lord Aversion -ho
chief justice Of England, and two Como
dian judges.
The Hon. Edward Blake and Christie
pher Robinson. X. C., of Toronto. will
be two OF the Canadian counsel They
may have a distinguished associate in
the person of the solicitor general OF

Under the direction of Prof. William

busily engaged constructing plaster of
paris models Of the ten largest and most
characteristic ruins of ancient Aztec

These ruins are found in an area
stretching from Colorado TO Chile.
The work Of reproducing the Temple
Of Xochicalcos, in the State Of Morelos
Mexico. is already well advanced. and as
soon as this is completed, Prof. Holmes
will begin work upon a model OF Casa

have not yet been decided upon.
These models will first be exhibited in

The scale upon which the models are
being constructed is large enough to
show the carving and sculpture OF the
