urally, the majority of them. having
 cities, thus tending further to con-
 gest the population of the urban cen
 ters and make 1t more and more diff
 ficult for the immigrant classes to eke out a livelihood.
 Urgent appeals have been re- ceived by the immigration authori- ties from the south and from other parts of the country to adopt meas ures which will tend to induce immi- grants to locate in those sections. Their labor is needed and in those places the immigrants themselves would be far better of than they would be in the big cities. A plan was suggested of erecting at Ellis Island immigration station, in New York bay. an information bureau and exposition in miniature of the advan- tages offered in the south to immi- grants. Of course, 1t was not within the bounds of propriety that the United States government should direct immigrants where they were to locate after their landing in Amer lea, but it was believed the informa- ton to be had at the proposed bureau would be of distinct advantage not only to the immigrants themselves. but to the country, as it would tend more widely to distribute the aliens who come here
 The scheme to establish an infor- nation bureau and exposition at Ellis Island has not materialized, particu- larly because of the probable ex- proposed. however, by the North German Lloyd Steamship Co that it will undertake to land immigrants at Savannah and Charleston. thus in- cluding those two cities among its transcontinental ports. The com pany will advertise that it will land immigrants at those ports which are near to a great and growing demand for labor.
 This proposition has been under by the immigration of 1t. By the establishment of immi- grafton stations at those ports it is believed that many aliens of a de- sirable kind will be induced to take passage from Europe direct to the south. in this country. Thus. im- migration will be diverted from Bos- ton, New York and Philadelphia and direct to a section of the country much in need of 1t. How soon the plan will be put into effect by the company is not known. 1t will depend. to an extent at least. on the action of the immigration au- thorities. That other steamship com panies will follow the lead of the North German Lloyd line including southern ports in their itineraries is regarded as reasonably certain.

II WAS 4 CLOSE CALL
Four Professors Took a Three Thous- and Foot Drop Down a
 Snow Slope
MEMBERS OF AN EXPEDITION

Chicago. Sept 21.-Four prominent college professors. one member of the University of Chicago faculty, escaped from death almost by a miracle in Mexico last Wednesday af- ter one of the most daring and ard uous expeditions ever attempted to gain the top of Mount Orizabam.
 Word was received yesterday from RCllin T. Chamberlain of the Uni versity of Chicago. member of the party. describing the attempt to reac, the top of the mountain and a fall Of 5000 feet down a snow slope from the summit.
 Having gained the top of the peak, the members of the party spent an hour in looking out over Mexico city. and the gulf of Mexico. Then they decided to descend. but encount- cred a snow slope end slid down three fifths of mile before they came to stop.
 Prof H. F. Reid, of Jchns Hop- kins, Prof P. A. Coleman, of the Uni versity of Toronto, and Prof ]. F. Wolff, of Harvard were the three other members of the expedition They had gone to Mexico to study geological conditions. Chamberlain is studying botanical conditions at the mouths of volcanic craters.
 Several important discoveries were made, the most important of which is new measurement for the height of the volcano. A government sur vey made several years ago placed the height of the mountain at 1s.300 feet. The party found on reaching the summit that their aneroad baro- meter registered 1S,500 feet.

Two Well-Known Men Who Sailed

London. Sept 21.--Brigadier-G Gen. eral Thomas H. Barry and Brigadier- General w. P. Duvall, have come here from Germany where they att tended the manoeuvers. They have received orders to return home as soon as possible.
 Sir Thomas Lipton and Mir and Mrs T. P. O'Connor sailed from Liverpool to-day for New York on the Celtic. Generals Barry and Mills. a number of yachtsmen and others were at the station to bid Sir Thomas farewell and urged him to arrange race for the American cup before he returned. Sir Thomas promised to discuss the matter of another challenge while in New York, and said he hoped 1t would be possible to make the arr engagements. Sir Thomas told an in- terviewer that while he could not say anything more definite. he thought 1t "very probable that there will be another race" Friends of Sir Thomas are satisfied that he will is- sue a challenge during his stay in America.

BUREAU AT ELLIS ISLAND
Special to Democrat.)

Washington, D. O., Sept 21.-Ar- engagements are being made for the landing of immigrants to this coun- try at southern ports, in accordance with the desire of the people of the south that they shall be afforded fla cilities for obtaining immigrant labor direct from European countries.
 Frank P. Sargent, commissioner general of immigration and natural ization, has been advocating for a long time plan to divert immigrants who are landed at New York or Phil adelphia or Boston from the big cen ters of population to those parts of the country where immigration is needed. Under present conditions, thousands of immigrants are landed in this country with no definite idea as to location in their minds. Nat

FIGHTING THE MOTHS
Government is ExpsndIlg sS5.Ooo in Exterminatlng the Pest in
 Massachusetts
THE EXPERTS ARE HOPEFUL

Woburn, Mass, Sept 21.-Work is
 now in pragress under government
 direction looking toward the exter-
 imitation of brown tail and gypsy
 moths in New England, under the
 provisions of the bill passed at the
 last session of congress appropriating $S5,OOO for this purpose. The great CT part of this approprition will be
 expended in Massachusetts although part of 1t will be used for work in New Hampshire and Rhode Island.
 At present trees are being cut down
 and underbrush cleared away along
 the highways in this section of the
 state, which Is the most seriously in-
 fected region in New England Chief
 Entomologist L. O. Howard, of Wash
 ington, accompanied by Prof A. H. Kirkland. chief entomologist of Mas sachusetts. D. Rogers. state field agent. and Harry Vinton, state in- spector, this week has made tour of the districts where the work is being done and found that. 1t was proceed ing satisfactorily.
 It is planned to leave standing only the best trees directly along the highways where the thinning out pro- cess is being carried on, and these will be at least forty feet apart. For a hundred feet back from the street line on each side the underbrush will be cut away and burned, and most of the trees will be cut down and moth nests found on them will be painted with creosote to prevent the eggs from matching. This work will be done along the state highways. During the winter the moth nests on the trees left standing in the dis trict covered will be destroyed. In the spring these trees will be banded with burlap, and some sticky sub stance in order to make 1t impossible for the caterpillars to reach the branches.
 The experts are confident that these steps will result in great di- of the pest and will go far toward bringing 1t under com | plete control. Similar work is be- | ing carried on by the metropolitan park commission in the Middlesex Tells and Lynn woods reservations. One of the chief objects in thinning out the trees along the highways is to prevent moths and caterpillars | from falling on passing automobiles and carriages, as 1t has been found that this has been one of the most agents in the spread of the moths from one town to another.
