Sargent Recommends
Re-RegistratiOn
Of Chinese

Washington. April 9.-Commissioner
General Sargent OF the immigration
service was heard today by the House
Committee on Foreign Affairs relative
TO the proposed amendments to the
Chinese exclusion act. The Commits
sioner reviewed at length the difficult
ties in the way OF enforcing the pres
cnt law.
Tho greatest cause of complaint
arose, in his opinion. from the fact
that what aie known as section six
certificates which are in reality pass
ports Of Chinese privileged to hand in
this country. were made out in blank
by United States Consular officers In
China and were sold for a considera-
lion. The remedy. he suggested. was
TO have officers In China who should
investigate the certificate ISSUED to
every Chinese and who should send
with the steamship in which he sailed
proper papers to the immigration au-
tbofitics az the port OF destination. the
means of readily Identifying the Chin
ese and the certificate.
Sargent declared that today Mexico
Is Hooded with Chinese who are school,
ing themselves for fraudulent entry
into the United States. The situation
us to Canada Is very much better than
It was several years ago. because OF an
agreement with the Canadian railroads.
Sargent also advocated an amend
ment to the present law requiring all
Chinese In this country to be re-regis-
tered. lie said the country Is full OF
Chinese who are here In violation OF
the law. After the Reorganization, he
would then send out OF the country
all Chinese who did not have proper
certificates.
The difficulty OF enforcing the Chi
ncse exclusion act. Sargent said. is be-
cause Of the dishonesty OF American
attorneys. The Chinese Six Companies
In San Francisco, as well as other inter
cstcd parties, he said are the interests
now actively engaged in efforts to get
the law broken down by lax amend
ncnts.
lie dcniod that the immigration Blu
reau was responsible for the Chinese
boycott. The committee had before II
the Foster bill. but Sargent did moi
agree that this was the proper remedy

GOVERNS PRICES OF DOGS
Sentiment of Purchaser Has Much
to Do with the Value Of
Animals.

The price paid for a dog seems to
be governed not so much by the value
of the animal as the sentiment of the
purchaser in the vast majority of cases
and, as a rule, the sporting dog brings
the lowest figure. says the Baltimore
News. Doubtless this is due to the
fact that the man who wants a gun
dog is a practical person, while the
seeker after the show dog" pays for
the SHOW" 1t is granted right here
that many a good gun dog also shows
well. but the highest prices go for the
snow animal, pure and simple.
Al a recent sale OF pointers and set
tiers at Birmingham, England, one of
the most important sales in years, the
entire lot-two score or more-sold for
sos guineas. The highest price paid
was So guineas for the famous female
pointer, Coronation (4h years., the
winner of many championships, while
among the settlers the choice was
Ightfeld Bang (4h) IL great field trial
winner, who brought only 81 guineas.
American purchasers would have
thought these dogs cheap at $1,000
apiece.
In contrast with these prices. the
bull terrier Woodcote Wonder sold in
New Haven for S 5000 to a San Fran
cisco purchaser. Richard Croker, Jr..
paid $4,000 for his Champion Rodney

FIRST ARTIFICIAL FIRE.
Created by Primetive Man by
Rubbing Two Pieces of
Wood Together.

Writes S. E. Forman in Stories OF
Useful Inventions in st. Nicholas:
In the of time a man some
where in the world hit upon a plan o.
kindling a fire without having any fire
TO begin with; that is to say, he hi
upon a plan of producing a fire by arti
fetal means. He knew that by rub
bling his hands together very hard and
very fast he could make them very
warm. By trial he learned that BY
rubbing W pieces of dry wood to-
gether he could make them very warm,
Then he asked himself the question:
Can a fire be kindled by rubbing two
pieces of wood together, II they are
rubbed hard enough? He placed upon
the ground a piece of perfectly dry
wood and rubbed this with the end OF
a stick until a groove was made. In
the groove a fine dust of wood-a kind
of sawdust-was made by the rubbing.
He went on rubbing hard and fast,
and, behold, the dust in the groove be-
gan to glow! He placed some dry
grass upon the embers and blew upon
them with his breath. and the grass
burst into a fame. Here for the first
time a man kindled a fire for himself.
He had invented the match, the great
est invention, perhaps. in the history
of the world.

This condition is probably caused
by a cold OF cough which is hard to
cure, overwork, or too close confine-
ment to business. Such people need
Vinol. We guarantee that it will
cure them and build them up or re-
turn money wherever it fails, and the
following letter is only n of many
showing what Vinol will do"
Miss Rose Blair, president Sopho-
more Club, Kansas City, Mo, writes:
Last spring | was all run down, ner-
vous and irritable. l lost my appe-
title and could not sleep. tried many
medicines without any benefit. Your
cod liver preparation, Vinol, was rec
commended, and it certainly worked
wonders for me-. 1t was delicious to
take and not at all like the greasy
cod liver oil and emulsions | was used
TO. Vinol gave me a hearty appetite

strength. | consider Vinol a wonder

Vinol cures conditions like this be-
cause it contains every one OF the cur
alive medicinal elements found in
cod liver oil without a drop of the
useless oil to upset the stomach and
retard it's work, and it strengthens
every organ in the body.
We ask every rundown, nervous,
debilitated, aged or weak person in

fering from stubborn colds, hanging
on coughs Or bronchial troubles to
try Vinol on Il guarantee to return
