GREAT SLAUGHTER OF wAsPs.
Curious Custom That Prevails in West
n1oreland, England.

A strange custom is observed year
ly in the small hamlet of Week, in
Westmoreland, England, in commemo-
ration of an incident that happened
In the year 1871 That year there
was a plague of wasps and many per-
sons throughout the country succumb-
ed to the poisonous stings. The lit
tie hamlet holds the record for its
number of victims, and in memory OF
the occurrence a memorial tablet was
erected on the moor there. Now each
year there is a procession Most OF
the inhabitants turn out, carrying in
sect powder and other devices for kill
ing wasps, and march to the memorial
stone. where a short service is held
by the minister of the parish When
the service is over a general crusade
is made in search Of wasps' nests,
which are Immediately destroyed
Some. carry guns. some rags saturated
in turpen&ne, while others carry par.

and a match applied. The anniversary
is considered the most important event
of the year.

ERNE WHIPS GALLIGAN EUROPE FOR GOTCH
Knocks Out italian in Fifth
Round at Philadelphia
Last Night.

New York. Dec 26.-Frank Gotch,
the American champion wrestler, il
there be such a title. is taking on
weight for the express purpose of
building UP his strength and being able
to go 10 Europe and challenge Hacken-
schmidt the worlds undisputed cham
pion at Greco Roman style.
Gotch now weighs twenty five pounds
more than when he wrestled Tom Jen-
kins. and he feels that he ought to be
able to hold his own against Hacken-
schmidt or any other man across the
waters.
The particular crouch which is gnaw-
ing at Gotch's vitals however. is what
he calls the "presumptuous work Of
Tom ORourke in taking Joe Rodgers
to Europe ana billing him as the
worlds champion. He says he viii go to
London and force Hackenschmidt into
q match, even If he has to post $4,000
to bind the bargain.
7 am not afraid Of Hackenschmidt
or any other wrestler" declared Gotch.
My American record gives me the
right to challenge anybody at catch
as-catch-can. ! viii admit that I know
very little about the Greco Roman style,
but I am willing to take a chance.
The idea of O'Rourke taking Rod
gers over TO Europe though and ad-
vertising him as the worlds champion
is what gets me. This is perposterous.
and the English people viii he forced

LESS GOLD SHIPPED
Years Imports Shows a De
crease of 100000
Over 1906.

New York, Dec. 25.-The annual re-
port Of Colonel Edward s Fowler. col
lector Of the port OF New York, will
show that the United States made a
net gain in imports Of gold and silver
over exports in 1907 of s4215l.9S as
compared TO a net gain Of $46 1850
ia 1905, or a decrease in the net gain
this year OF $4.074,067.
These figures are extremely interest
ing in connection with the heavy move
ment Of foreign gold as a result sc
the financial panic, which has been ISL
timated in the neighborhood Of $780,
100000 since the middle of October.
The movement, as detailed in Collee-
tor Fowler's report, are importations
.of s121.665,769, and expectations Of
.s79.513,7SI The gold imports in the
preceding year reached S9S,226,055. and
the exports S52,O0O.000
Foreign Trade Breaks Records.
The report on foreign commerce
shows that the present year through
the New York port was the largest re
corded since the opening of the local
custom house more than 100 years ago.
Statistics for the eleven calendar
months of 1907, just tabulated to-
gether with an estimate OF the bust
ness of the port for December, made
by ]. s. Knapp the auditor, places the
foreign commerce of New York for the
year now closing at $1,5o3, 382,9os. OF
gain Of s110I21326 over the calendar
year Of 1906 These figures are ex-
elusive Of foreign merchandise exports
