While there is no practical use to

Destroying the Giants Causeway.

The famous Giants Causeway'
in the north of Ireland is suffering
the fate of the New Jersey palisades
overlooking the Hudson, for it is
in the hands of stone merchants.
A consignment of 200 tons of the
basaltic columns comprising the
Causeway has recently been ship
ped to Philadelphia. It will be asked
whether there is no power in Ire
land to protect the Causeway. AL
though at one time it was suppos-
ed to be the work of the giants
who abounded in Ireland, and to
whom a piece of construction about
a furlong in length would be
child's play, it is not in a legal
sense an ancient monument. The
Irish courts decided that the stones
belonged to a company, and since
that time the causeway or pier
cannot be seen without payment.
1t may therefore be assumed that
the disposal of the basalt is a legal
transaction. America is fast be-
coming great museum, and it
will be incomplete unless several
of the natural as well as the artistic
curiosities" of Europe are to be
found here. Scientific American.

JAPANESE IMMIGRANTS
WERE EXCLUDED
Interesting Time at immigration Head
quarters Teday-M Mexican Traehoma
Cases Rejected Also.

The Brownsville immigrant in
spection force had a rather interest
ing time this morning, when three
conservatives of the Flowery
Kingdom of Japan marched sober
" ND the walk at the ferry and
made application for admission into
Uncle Sans domain. AS none OF
the inspectors can understand even
one little word of Japanese, and as
the Acknowledged applicants are
equally innocent of any knowledge
of English, there was considerable
trouble in exchanging communicss
tons between the two parties. One
of the Japs knew a very few words
of Spanish and from him it was
gathered that they came from Mon
terey, where they have been work
ing apparently in the brewery.
They had the word beer" down
in their vocabulary all right.
Physically and financially, they
turned out to be acceptable immi-
grants, but as they did not show
anv passports. and could not be
made to understood that these
magic papers are necessary before
any Japanese can enter here, there
appeared nothing else to do but to
exclude them. They seemed to be
absolutely in the dark as to the
meaning of the word passport. As
Instructions have been issued to all
immigration authorities to treat
the Japanese with every considera-
ton, and to do nothing that may
hurt their feelings, due no doubt
to the somewhat strained relations
between the two nations, the in
spectors were somewhat at loss
as to do with the applicants, who
MAY have passports, but did not
understand that they must present
them. It was finally decided, how
ever, that they should be excluded,
and they were politely but firmly
made to understand that they must
return to Mexico. Several hours
were devoted to the consideration
of the case, and it was half past
two when the would-be immigrants
took passage on the ferry boat back
to Mexico.
One of them raised a laugh on
the part of the inspectors by grave
ly approaching one of them and
offering him a fifty dollar bill,
making it known by signs that 1t
was bribe to let them pass.
It is thought by some that these
are only the van guard of a large
number of Japs who have been re-
fused admission at other points,
ard who are here to prospect as to
chances of getting through.
Two young Mexican men hav-
ing trachoma were also rejected
today by the inspectors.

TO A BETTER
PLACE
WILL CAMP ON BEAR LAKE
Not Discouraged But Thinks There
Was No Chance of a Bear at
Former Camp

STEAMBOAT. Ia, Oct 11--Roosevelt
camp at the Monticello crossing of
the Bayou Tensas has passed into
history. The president left the place
at 6 O'Clock this morning, and when
he turned his back on the camp il
was with a determination not to re-
turn again. He headed toward
Bear lake. whence Sunday he will re-
move to another camp, which will be
pitched near Newellton, in Tensas
parish, on a Branch of the Iron
Mountain road
The change twas decided not only
because no bear had been killed, but
because the president and his friends
became convinced that there was
none to be killed on the upper Tensas.
They have threshed the woods,
covering the entire country around
the Monticello dressing, and it is still
doubtful whether any fresh signs OF
the presence of the bruin family have
been discovered.
No member Of the party has had
the remotest glimpse of a bear, no!
have any of the dogs, with which
they are supplied, struck at any time
a we'll defined gar track. Mr. Park
sr emphaticaIly Expresses the opinion
that there ans 20 bears where the
hunt has been Conducted.
The president accepts the situa
ton philosophically, saying that tn,
present Is not the only search fol
came that ever came to naught.
