Russia owes much of the power and
influence she enjoys in the East to
his agency when acting as her minis

of diplomatic importance between this

is more or less figurehead, and the
main thing is that he should be a
good figurehead and make an impress

Sir Michael Herbert,

British Ambassador
would make a sorry showing beside
the imposing body which now repre-
sents the foreign governments at
this capital.
Seven governments are now repre-
scented by ambassadors at Washing
ton-Germany, Russia, Mexico, Italy,
Great Britain, Austria-Hungary and
France. The ambassadors take pre-
cedence of the ministers plenipoten-
tiary and ENJOYS extraordinary, and
rank, according to the official code
generally accepted, after the vice
president and before the cabinet.
The late Lord Pauncefote was the
first ambassador to present his ere
dentials to this government and until
his death was the dean of the diplo-
matte corps. He was succeeded by
DR.. Won Holleben, the oldest ambas-
sador, according to length Of service.
DR. Won Holleben is now on leave of
absence.
No other member of the British dip
lomatic service is so well equipped
to cultivate friendly relations be-
tween his own and this government
as the present British ambassador.
He is member of a family that for
generations has taken an active part
in the history of the state, a man of
cleyeTness, tact and culture, whose
marriage to an American and long
residence on this side of the water
have taught him to understand the
American character, customs, institu-
lions and traditions.
Moreover, while he was attached
TO the legation as secretary under
Lord Pauncefote he became the init
mate friend of Theodore Roosevelt.
The latter and the English secretary
sprinted through the suburbs togeth-
er, rode across country, passed even
ings with each other and became
warm personal friends.

MAINE LOG CUT FOR 1903
Seasons Product Will Be Approx
mateIy eOO, oOO, 900 Feet.

Returns. from the various logging
sections of Maine show that the sea
sons cut will be approximately $780,
00O, 900 feet, over half of which is
spruce. about 300, 900, 900 feet, says
the Springfield Republican, will be
ground up in pulp mills and the rest
will be used for lumber.
This vast harvest has called for
the employment of about 10000 men,
many of whom went into the woods
early in the fall to make the camps
ready for the lumber jacks, and
nearly 100000 has been paid to
them in wages. Now that the trees
are down and the logs on the waters
edge the drive will soon begin and
the prospects for a good one are ex-
cellent The season will be a profit
able one for the state, but if the
wholesale slaughter of trees con-
tinues for a few years more and no
care is taken to preserve the forests
even the vast Maine wilderness will
fail and the pulp mills and the lum-

IN NEW YORK YACHT CLUB.
German Emperor Now Member Of
Famous Organization.

German Emperor Now a Member Of
Famous Organization.
An officer of the New York Yacht
club is quoted as expressing the be-
lief that the German emperor has long
repented of the treatment which in
past years he is credited with having
put upon members of that organiza-
ton Years ago an official of the New
York Yacht club said: Emperor Will
lam never will be able to get into
the club owing to the way he has
treated American yachtsmen in German
waters. He has gone out of his way
to offer insults to our club members
and other American yacht owners and
it makes our blood boil." The same
official points several reasons for be-
lief that the emperor has heard of the
remarks quoted For instance he
says, 1.-The Meteor was designed and
built in this country and Prince Hen
~ came over to establish entente
cordiale." The club forgave and now
the kaiser and his uncle. King Ed
ward, are OF the list of honorary mem
bers. 1t is said that the invitation to
the kaiser went through George w.
Perkins at Mr.. Morgan's suggestion.
Perkins became a regular member
last year.

THE QUALITIES OF RADIUM.
Wonderful Substance Which Is Puz-
ziing the Scientists.

WonoerfuI substance Which Is PuZ-
ziing the Scientists.
What is this wonderful substance
called radium that science is talking
SO much about? We only know it, as
we know all other matter, by its man
ifestations-
According to its discoverer, Sir
William Crookes, it is a substance
which radiates heat Indefinitely. But
it is so valuable that a ton of it
would pay the whole national debt of
Great Britain
A bit as big as grain of sand sends
out rays enough TO blister the skin
Radium is supposed in some mys-
ferrous way TO govern the motions of
the universe
1t has been isolated in minute guam
titles with the most wonderful results.
1t is the latest scientific puzzle
But it is found in such small guam
titles that it cannot be cornered for
profit 1t will never be quoted in the
stock exchange Let us be thankful.

place at the head of his embassy here
a man who would equal the British
ambassador in talents. family wealth

Dr. Won Holleben's alleged mistakes

Baron Won Sternburg's career is al

Leeds, England. where his father was
engaged in business, but returned to
