BRINGS THANKS OF CHINA

Tang Shao Vi the high commissioner of the
Chinese empire to the United States, who came
many thousand miles to thank the United
States government for remittng part of the
Boxer indemnity, is one of the most brilliant and
capable men of the Flowery Kingdom. In fact
he is American in many ways, having received
his early education at Springfield Mass. He
arrived there in 1874, when IL years old, became
a guest of the family of f. C. Gardner, but later
moved to Hartford Conn. where he attended the
high school, preparatory to his entrance into
Columbia university at New York. He was at
tending that university, when he was recalled to
China in 1881.
Tang Shao vi is not only the bearer of let
fers and rare presents to President Roosevelt

HOLDS TICKLISH POST

Count Paul WoffMetternich, German am
bassador to the court of st. James, is notable
member of a little group of gentlemen in various
parts of Europe at the present time whose sleep
o nights must be decidedly ftful and uncertain.
They are the cotere of diplomats who stand be-
tween Europe and war, and whose every effort
is being directed to the preservation of interna-
tonal peace with honor on the one hand and and
to the gentle stroking of the fur of peevish
princes
At the present moment the position of Count
Wolff-Metternich Is particularly delicate. The
kaiser has very excellent reasons for believing
that France and Great Britain are upon very
amicable terms just now He has something
more than a mere suspicion that France is in the

poDelNG THE DETECTIVES.
Tricks of Clever Criminals to Escape
Arrest.

During the past few years many
mysterious murders have been investi-
gated by the smartest detectives IN the
country, but a large number OF them
have completely baffied the most assid-
nous efforts of Scotland Yard and the
murderers are still at large. We have
only to go back as far as 1900, since
then nine brutal murders, the victims
in each case being women, have joined
the list CT undiscovered crimes.
Even the murderer who does not
premeditate his crime knows full we'll
hat sooner or later the news OF his
deed will be spread broadcast through
cut the land. He knows too that men
VINO have long experience Of crime
will be on his track; he realizes, there
fore, that it is expedient for him to put
these men off the scent, and many are
the lodges which the clever rogue Will
practice for this purpose. Where the
motive is one of revenge the perpetra-
tor will inevitably attempt to create
the impression that robbery Is the rea-
son. Any valuables about the victim
are speedily taken; and a murderer Of
this type seldom fails to tear the cloth
ing in the neighborhoOd Of pockets.
1t is a we'll known fact that the po-
ice pay a lot Of attention to anony-
nous letters, which are always forth
coming when they are engaged upon
case, but it is not so generally known
that the author CT some of them Is Of
ten the murderer himself.
He runs a certain risk, Of course, In
penning such letters, but he can often
send the detectives on a goose chase
so probable Is the tale which he tells

may be able to help the police, but

iected to. give their evidence under the
shroud of anonymity. The clever
perpetrator of n crime Is always the
first to lay false clue to his little
communication. False clues are also
weapons which a criminal can distri-
butte to his advantage.
A murderer who premeditates his
crime is always the first to lay false
scent. In a recent case the police had
much trouble with one Of these faxed
clues. Near the scene Of the tragedy
small piece of paper was found on
which were written directions from
London to the spot Of where the crime
was committed. Villages, towns, roads
and distances were all indicated, the
inference being. of course, that the
murderer did not know the district
and took the slip with him as guide.
The detectives engaged in the case,

TWO WHALES.
A Report on the Internal and External
Anatomy.

A Report on the Internal and External
Anatomy.
A report on the external and inter-
nal anatomy the remains Of two whales
(Balaena glacialis), recovered by two
Young men at Amagansett, L. l., has
Just been printed in the bulletin Of the
museum Of natural history by Roy c.
Andrews, says Forest and Stream.
The two whales went on shore, one
near the village of Amagansett, the
other near the village Of Wainscott.
The Amagansett whale, originally re-
ported as measuring Sc feet inches
from the tip Of the snout to the end
of the fluke, was measured by Mr.. An
drews after the flukes had been re-
moved and appears to have been
about 81 feet long, measured from
the tip of the snout over the back to
the notch of the flukes. The Wains-
colt whale measured In a straight
line from tip Of snout to notch Of
fiukes, was 40 feet inches. The
length of the blowhole was 10 inches
in the Amagansett whale and 81
inches in the Wainscott specimen, and
the longest whalebone. excluding the
bristes, was six feet five inches In the
Amagansett specimen.
In the Wainscott whale the color
was everywhere dense ivory black,
with no indication whatever Of light
err color on the fms or flukes, and
while the Amagansett specimen was
chiefly of the same black, there were
some streaks, patches and spots of
white on the flukes. flippers and in
some other places. While the right
whale is generally an unbroken black,
there is testimony that they are occa-
sonally marked with white below.
Captain ]. B. Edwards speaks of some
that he has seen that had the breast
and throat nearly white, and similar
specimens are noted in the Whale
bone Whales of North America"
The eyeball of the Amagansett
whale measured on the preserved
specimen after the eyeball had been

ed to it, three and a quarter inches
from before backward and three
inches from above downward. The iris
was clear brown, surrounded by
narrow, irregular ring Of lighter COL
or. The pupil Is elliptical, its longitu-
dinal diameter being one and a quar-
ter inches.
The osteology of the whales IS de-
scrbed and figures are given of many
of the bones and of the wrist with its
ossifications.
1t Is interesting TO note that the
Amagansett whale exceeds In size the
largest right whale ever recorded,
and that it's examination demonstrates
that there is some color variation in
the species.
