HaYashi's Missions.

Viscount Hayashi. 1t is believed, has two
missions to fulfill. The first, to assist Mar
quis Ito to execute the japanese govern

consult with him the Manchurian and
American questions.
Able Japanese here do not believe that
the question of The Hague deputation Is Of
sufficient Importance to annul the trip PLAN
ned by Marquis Ito to Toxic and the send
ing of Viscohnt Hayashi here instead OF
Yamaza, therefore they think that the
purpose of Hayashi was to divert the at

America. where it Is claimed that the gov

camels and cattle and sheep, which are
still as large in some localities as in the

the friendship of many of the sheikS

THE NUMBER OF ANIMALS.
Recent Attempts to TabuIate the
Beasts That Perish.

Every now and then some natural
ist endeavors to make an approximate
numerical count of known animal
species. This kind of attempt is sure
ly not without interest, but 1t must be
acknowledged that its results are very
uncertain. We are far from knowing
all species. and there is yet delight
full prospect ahead for those who love
systematic zoology and for biologists
who bestow mutual honors by giving
each others names to some animal
hitherto unknown.
