e1ITIsH ART TREASURES

The recent acquisition by an American collector
of four first folios of Shakespeares plays Tor ths
remarkable sum of 10000 has strengthened the
demand for legislation in the matter OF the ex-
portation Of art treasures .
The amount spent by the government annually
m mixtures and other works of art ts as nothing
when compared with the unlimited purses of
American rillionares. and 1t Is therefore eV1dent
that the only course that remains open, II pglvate
literary and art treasures ara TO be retained IN tns
country, is legislation. r,x,.,
IteIy protects her art treasures by prohibiting
the exDortation of any work of italian origin with
ont the permission of the government, and II was
owing to this law that the attempted sale or tne

said to be $500 0O0-was prevented. Why, therefore
should not the British government mako similar

NOMINATION PLEAsEs YoNKERs.
Judge Kellogg, Named for Mayor, Likely to
Prove an Easy Winner.

Seldom has Republican nomination in the
city of Yonkers met with more favor than that
of former City Judge William c. Kellogg for
Mayor The nomination was made on Tuesday
night. and was the result of a demand coming
from all quarters of the party.
That Judge Kellogg is q vote getter and that
he is trusted by the people are plainly shown by
his past record. In 1895 he defeated F. X. Don
oghue, the Democratic city Judge who hoped
for reelection, by over three hundred votes. In
1899 Judge Kellogg was reelected. his majority
being almost doubled, and his opponent Thomas
F. Curran. one Of the strongest and most popu-
lar young Democrats in Yonkers. Two years
ago he was again reelected for his third term,
and again his majority jumped to nearly one
thousand.
Judge Kellogg is member Of many societies
Masonic. collegiate and various others of a fra
ternal and social nature.
The Democrats have taken fright at his nom
nation. and, although their nomination has been
offered to several prominent Democrats, no one
has been induced to accept 1t at this writing
