attendance at the mayors office.
The letter from Mayor Boxton was
as follows:

main at the building at Post and

his office, and on being questioned as
to Boxton's letter and his refusal to
act upon it, said:
'I only recognize THE mayor OF

The Tunis as a distinct breed Of sheep
is one Of the oldest In America, In 1873
Gen. William Eaton, the consul from the
United States to Tunis, purchased from
the Bey OF Tunis ten head OF the sheep
and sent them on the United States war
ship Sophia to his home land, says the
National Live Stock Bulletin. One ram
and one eve only survived the long voy-
age, and this pair were placed under the
care Of Judge Richard Peters, OF Bel
mont. near Philadelphia Judge Peters
cared for the animals, breeding them IN
til in few years he had on his place a
fine flock Of pure-bred Tunis sheep-the
first flock IN America.
This original imported pair-the ram be-
ing called "Caramelli' and the eve
Selma were killed by dogs when very
aged, the eve raising her last lamb
when she was sixteen years old. From
them and their progeny several fine focks
were bred, the animals being sent into

cussing his article. but he leads us TO be

that modern diseases of childhood" such
as measles, chickenpox, and whooping
cough, were originally virulent adult mall

whether the comparative immunity Of the

lieves that both influences have played
their parts. In support of his theory that
familiarity breeds immunity. he asserts
that whereas the red men die like sheep

RECORD YEAR FOR IMPORTS.
Value OF Merchandise Brought in
1906 Was Far over a Billion.

The value Of all merchandise imported
into the United States during the year
ended June 90 1853. according to an Agri-
cultural Department report was larger
than that Of any previous year. and
amounted 10 81 .227. 10000. The value Of
farm products imported during this year
was also the largest on record. and
equaled $554 G0,000, or 452 per cent Of the
total imports. For the seventeen years
ending with 1906. farm products consutu-
ted 491 per cent Of the total imports OF
merchandise.
The tendency during these years has
been for imports Of farm products 20 in
crease, as measured by value, more slow
" than imports Of other goods. During
1S90-lS94 farm products constituted 81 per
cent Of the total. in 1S95-1S99 511 per
cent, and for the period Of 19O0-lSOf. the
percentage was 81 The highest percent
age was in 1891 when farm products
formed sos per cent Of the total. and the
lowest was in 1906
Forest products imported into the
United States have increased in value
from SIS, 000. 900 in 1885 10 S96.eO0OCl in 1906,
or more than loo per cent in ten years.

than that OF the previous year. and 1906.
which exceeded 1904 by SlS.000O00.
The decrease in 1906 as compared with
1905 in the value of imports into the
United States from South America OF
both farm and forest products, amounted
to total Of Sl600l0O0 However, the
value in 1906 was $4,000 900 more than in
1904
Farm imports imported from Europe
increased $l1.Oo0000 in 1906 as compared
with 1865; from Asia they increased
S. 000, 600, and from Africa $1,000 l0 These
gains We're almost Offset by decreases in
the value of imports OF farm products
from the other grand divisions. so that
the net increase for all imports of farm
products in 1906 over 1865 was less than
one-haf million dollars. Most Of the
forest products imported in 1906, as meas
ured by value. came from countries OF
North America. The value Of this class
Of imports from each grand division ex-
Cept South America and Oceania was
larger in 1906 than in 1906
