Ambassador Carries tO America Good
 Will of Irishmen, Says Dillon.
 DUBLIN, Jan. 5.--James Bryce, the newly appointed ambassador of Great Britain to the United States, delivered a lecture here last night under the aus pices of the National Literary society. His subject was the relations of the Norsemen to Ireland from the eighth to the twelfth century, and he gave an interesting review of the laws and lit erature of Iceland.
 Mir. Bryce received vote of thanks from the society. and in seconding it John Dillon, M. F.. said of Mir. Bryce that he would carry to his new task the friendship and good will of Irish men, and he would see what Irishmen could do in a free country, living under conditions far different from those of Ireland. Continuing. Mir. Dillon ex- pressed his belief that MT. Bryces ex- perience of the present system of Irish government would make him more than ever determined to champion Irish liberty.
 At this remark some of the occu- pants of the platform rose with a show of indignation. and the chairman said, 'I must rule this out of order" There then followed small scene, many per sons in the audience calling upon Mir Dillon to "Go onr' but Mir. Dillon in sisted upon lowing to the ruling of the chairman.

The Sunday Question In Britain,

LONDON. Jan. 5.-The continually increasing disposition of the British public to make Sunday day of pleas ure seeking has induced certain reli- gious bodies to make an effort to stem the movement. The archbishop of Can terbury, the archbishop of Westmin- ster and the Rev. Jean Scott Lidgett, representing respectively the English and the Catholic churches and the Non. conformlsts, have issued joint "mes- sage to the nation" calling for strict CT observance of the sabbath, decIar- ing it is impossible to exaggerate the importance of this matter to the we'll being of the nation. No especial class is mentioned. but it evidently is aimed at the aristocratic classes. who are more than ever devoted to Sunday pleasures

 Same at The Hague.

w4THINGTON. Jan. ,. Andrew Carnegie has given $75O, 1000 for the erection of a building in Washington for the bureau of American republics.

 The announcement was made from the White House after conferences be- tween MT. Carnegie, Secretary Root and the president.
 In his letter to Secretary Root mak- ing the offer NIT. Carnegie said:
 T am happy in stating that it will be one of the pleasures of my life to furnish to the union of all the repub- lies of this hemisphere the necessary funds (S750, ,OOOl, from time to time as may be needed. for the construction of an international home in Washington.
 ''I have never felt more keenly than I do this New Years morning how much more blessed it is to give than to receive, and I consider myself highly honored by being considered worthy to provide the forthcoming union home where the accredited representatives of all the republics are to meet and. trust, to bind together their respective nations in the bonds of unbroken peace.
 T am greatly pleased that you and your colleagues of the South American republics have done me the honor to suggest that might furnish suitable nome in Washington for the bureau of American republics.
 ''The approval of your application by the governing board of the interna- tional bureau and President Roose- velt's hearty expression of satisfaction are most gratifying.
 You very kindly mention my mem- bership of the first pan-American con ference and advocacy of the pan American railway. the gaps of which are being slowly filed The impor- tance of this, enterprise impresses it. self more and more upon us, and hope to see it accomplished
 The president, in thanking Mir. Car negie for the gift. wrote:
 T am much pleased at learning from Secretary Root what you are go- ing to do for the bureau of American republics. You have already done sub stantially the same thing for the cause of peace at The Hague. This new gift of yours has an almost or quite equal significance as far as the cause of peace in the western hemisphere is concerned. for the bureau of American republics is striving to accomplish for this hemisphere what the The Hague peace tribunal is striving to accomplish i for both hemispheres. I thank you heartily"

St. Petersburg Stirred by Assnssina-
 tiOn of Chief of Police.
 ST. PETERSBURG, Jan. 5.--A gen eral search of the lodgings of persons under police observation was made during the night in the hope of dis covering the accomplices of the assas- sin of Prefect of Police Von der Lau- nitz. Many arrests were made, but so far as known no important terrorists were captured. The body of the man who killed the prefect at the Institute of Experimental Medicine is still un- identified.
 The assassination of Von der Launitz has caused powerful impression both in the press and among the public. The newspapers all comment on the inability of the prefect of police to pro- tect his own person against the attack of single resolute terrorist who un- dertook the task with the firm deter mination not to survive his victim, and the papers ask how long time will elapse before the emperor, grand dukes and other prominent personages are stricken by terrorist bullets.

 R. N.-Of what species of tree is cork taken from? Is it stripped from the tree, or does it flake of in ma turing?
 A. The tree is species of oak with acorns that have the taste of chest nuts. If left alone it will flake off, but the practice is to strip it off a year or two before it would fall naturally. Only the outer bark is taken, and usually this is loosened from the inner, live bark and allowed to remain on the tree for a time. Thus the tender inner bark that is essential to the trees life is protect ed. Taking the bark by this method is helpful rather than hurtful to the trees, many of which live to be hun dreds of years old.
 J. NJ. F.--What are the duties of United States senators and represen- tatives? CD What is the salary of the vice-president?

(4) How long does an infant have to make his own living before his con- tracts are valid?
 A. They make the laws of the country: all legislative powers are vested in the congress. CD $S,OOO. toD The owner of the note may sue and get judgment, but property ex- empted under the homestead laws cannot be levied upon. (4 Con- tracts made by an infant have no validity at any time.

(2) What is the salary of the president, the vice-president and members of the cabinet" (3) Com pare the extent of territory of the United States under Washington and Roosevelt. (4) How many islands under the protection of the United States?
 A. President Roosevelt's recent visit to Panama furnished the only example. One other, I think .Cleve- land, went out in a boat and there was a great shaking for fear hc had gone outside the three mile limit, but as nothing happened it must be that he did not. CD The president gets s50,000 a year. the others named $S,000. (3) In 17S3 the area of the country was S27,S44 square miles, now it is 3.756,SS4 miles.
