Plan Of japanese Lad for Raising War

Actuated by patriotic motives, Tajima

town of XII wakayama prefecture. ia

which the Commissioners are asked to
sell. The money received the boy wants
returned to him in order that he may
make a contribution to the fund being
accumulated in Japan for the support OF
the families of the soldiers and sailors
who fall in the war with Russia.
The letter and the stamps were received
at the District building several days ago
by Commissioner mcfarland. AS the
Commissioner does not understand Jap
anese sufficiently to translate the Xii
idioms he sent the letter TO the Japanese
legation and received u translation from
the officials there. On becoming
Puanted with the purport of the boys
letter the Commissioner directed that Il
reply be sent which would tell the young
ster that while the Commissioners would
be delighted to assist In his enterprise as
individuals, they cannot act officially in
the matter. Personally, however, Com
missioner mcfarland assured his young
correspondent that ne would do as much
as he could for him.
In his letter to the Commissioners young
Iatima says that he and his schoolmates
are very anxious to raise money for the
purpose OF providing for the families of
soldiers killed In the war. They find 1t a
very difficult task. however. as they
themselves have no money and most Of
their own people are poor. Nevertheless,
each one of them Is striving to do what
he can among his friends and acquaint-
ances. The school children In Japan are
great collectors OF postage stamps. and II

me for transfer to add to his collection.
OF course we don't hear that part of II
officially. We've got to give transfers when
they're asked for, and what's done with
them Is none Of our business.
"A man who travels with me quite often
showed me the other day a collection of
nearly 400 transfers that he'd gathered.
They represented about every city In the
country of more than 10000 population.
This man said he'd picked them up on his
places and even by writing to the street
railway companies for them.
"All transfers are patterned on the same
general style nowadays-that Is. they are
marked of into little sections containing
the transfer points, the hours and minutes
for the time limit. the dates and SO on.
The conductor punches one OF each OF the
sections.

Of the United States and to ask them to
do him the favor to dispose OF the stamps

Taiima evidently feels that he Is ap-
healing to friends, for he says that every
schoolboy in Japan has the warmest at

cause they know that many of them are
the loyal friends of Japan. On that &C

PARTNERS IN BUSINESS"
Young Men Charged With Burglary
While1 Posing at Dealers,

Two young linen shad cards printed in
Baltimore several weeks ago, 1t is said
showing that they were business partners,
and this partnership. 1t is alleged, was
used as a cloak forsburglary in the homes
of people who had gone away for the sum-
mer. Their cards read: "Pearce & Salikof.
buyers and dealers in all kinds of an
tiques" The fpolice of the two cities are
satisfied they were dealers in such goods,
but doubt that they ever bought any.
Salikof was arrested in Baltimore by De-
tective Armstrong, 1and Pearce was ar
rested in this city Yesterday by Elwood
Phelps and turned over to the police.
The prisoners admit their guilt. 1t is
stated that FIVE houses they visited In Bal
timore were robbed Of about 81 400 worth
OF property. Detective Armstrong came
to this city In search of Pearce shortly
after the arrest of his partner In Balti-
more but did not find him. He had about
given ND hope of locating him in this sec
ton, and was, therefore, surprised last
night when informed of his arrest. He
came over today and asked the police to
surrender Pearce to him.
Pearce was captured yesterday in a
stable In the rear OF 1717 I street north
west where he gained an entrance by rails
ing a window. It Is thought that Il was
his intention to force an entrance to the
house but fortunately for the owner of
the property and the. police and unfortu-
nateiy for himself he set on the burglar
alarm connected with the headouarters Of
the Mutual District Messenger Company.

Women as Golfers.
From the London Truth

From the London Truth.
Golf has become SO widely popular as a
psstime for women that the book Miss May
Hezlet. the open ladies' champion OF 1893
and 1902 has written fills distinct gap in
the literature of the links. The title is
Ladies' Goh." The first authentic refer
ence to women in connection with the
game that Miss Hczlet has been able to
discover Is a minute of the Royal Mussel-
burgh Club informing ''the fish ladies' Of
the neighborhood that prizes consisting OF
"a handsome new creel and shawl and
two Of the best Barcelona silk handker-
chiefs" would be awarded to female golfers
at meeting on January 1, 1911 1t was
not till 1867 that ladies' club was estab-
ished at st. Andrews. Even then and for
long afterward they contented themselves
for the most part with putting competi-
lions. and 1t is practically within the last
ten years that the long game has come
into general favor as q suitable one for the
fair sen.

the adulteration and doctoring Of foreign

Naturally this extra activity on the part
Of the consuls has engendered a very bitter
feeling toward them by the foreign wine
producers and exporters, and In some in

The State Department has not yet re-

agents to the fullest extent where their
personality does not enter into the opposi-

robbed the house Of Dr. Hawxhurst, from
