If is very interesting to observe the official and popular welcome that IS ex- tended in London to the King of Siam not so impressive, of course, as the welcome that has just been offered to inc representative of "our ally" the Mikado. in the person of Prince Flu shimi But there are in London mum Der of persons who have served the British Empire, in civil or military ca pecities on the furthest Eastern con fines of British India, and who are in position to apprise the British Gov- ernment of the day that the King of
 siam is not a negligible quantity.
 Doubtless he Is more negligible than 1 he would have been if the various An glo-Japanese-F French relations in the
 Furthest East had not been arranged
 by agreements from which not only
 the rulers of the native states, but the German Emperor had been carefully lomitted. But still Chulalongkorn L,
 which is the style of the visiting Sla
 mese monarch, is not socially or off,
 cially negligible in Great Britain, nor
 in any Western country which he may
 visit. He has occupied the throne of
 Siam for almost forty years, and his task during all that period has been to resist the aggressions of the Brit
 ish, on one side, from the Straits
 Settlements and since from Burmah,
 and of the French on the other, from l tndo-China. He has played a difficult
 part with great skill and 8 reasonable
 degree of success. Though of "the
 most Eastern East" he is himself in- lbued with Western civilization, and among the members of his own family
 are Princes who speak the best Eng Ilish that is taught at Oxford. More
 over, he has for the last four years had, in the person of MT Strobel, an 1 American and a graduate of Harvard,
 very judicious and highly confiden- tial adviser. who has the advantage of being neither a Frenchman nor an
 Englishman, and whose function has i chiefly been to warn the government of Siam against the machinations of
 their European neighhors. At any rate Siam, under King Chulalongkorn I, has been a conspicuous success. If his majesty should extend his tour to the
 United States he should be assured of
 a popular as well as of an official well Icome,-New York Times.

Wild AnimaIs in Africa.

Lovers of animals, however unscien- tific. and certainly all naturalists, will find much to interest them and not little to cause them great concern in the bulky book just issued entitled Correspondence Relating to the Pres ervatlon of Wild Animals in Africa"
 Undoubtedly big game is decreasing in British Central Africa" wrote Sir Harry Johnston in 1899, and furtha along in the same report Sir Harry refers to "the reckless slaughter of animals, The same note Is struck by British administrators and governors in other parts of the continent One writer goes so far as to say that there appears to be very little animal life left Even the elephant Is threatened with extraction. writer in a west African laper indignantly remarking: He is being destroyed merely for the sake of converting his teeth into billiard balls and useless ornaments"
 The famous hunter, Mir F. c. selous, in ( letter to the foreign office in 1897, attributes the disappearance of game in South Africa first to Europeans, who kill immense numbers of antelopes and quaggas for their hides, and elephants and ostrlches for their tusks and feath- CTS; second, to native Africans pos- sessed of firearms, who are said to be responsible for the killing of 9s7 out of every thousand elephants whose tusks come to London, and for the total ex- ter..fir ation Of the white rhinoceFos in North Matabeleland; and, third, to the rindtrres
 MT. Selous thinks it would be ex- tremrly difficult to enforce game laws on the natives, and this is confirmed by report from Caut Ambrose, a tray cling commissioner in Lagos, who writes In 1904 that, though the native chiefs are anxious to preserve the ele phant, they cannot restrain their peo- pie. In the village 200 men out of pop ulstien of 2,oOO did nothing but hunt elerhcnts
 Capt. Ambrose suggests that the on- l ly effectual remedy for the current wholesale destruction would be the tenn porary prohibition of the importation of powder for five years. This would not only save the game but force the natlve to work and to raise stock. The destruction of egrets ('ospr.ys" of commerce. is one of the most deplor- aoie lectures of the situation. and is described by various witnesses as 'br- pah;rg."
 Owrpe to the demand for oisis of bright plumage in France, a vary large numhe; have been destroyed. It Is a regular business to give native sun ,, ali send him into the interior to .hcot small birds for the milliners of Ftis.
 It was suggested by Lord Salisbury in 1903 that 1t should be international ly agreed that natives as well IS Eu- ropeans should be required 10 taka cut licenses to shoot; that system of re- serves and "sanctuaries" for will an!. nals should be established; that there should be close time for all ant nals and that the slaughter of all females
