THIRD DOUMA
DOES MUCH GOOD
Land Banks Have Greatly
Helped Peasants.

New York, Aug 1S.-(SpeciaD -
Among the benefits accomplished for
Russia by the third or conservative"
Duma in the last two years in the
establishment of land banks" in ev-
cry province through which the peas
ant and small farmer are enabled to
buy the inherited lands of the mobiles
on easy payments and at small
rate of interest, says DR.. c. G. Young,
who has just returned from that
country
The Duma has also begun opening
up the unsurpassed agricultural, tim
Der, and mining lands of Siberia by
railroads, by which ultimately the
wealth of the nation will be quadrup-
led. 1t has increased the National
School Fund by many millions there
by doubling the number of free dis
trict schools which the children of
the Russian peasants are now obliged
to attend up to the age of Is.
The policy of the present Russian
Government is to stop the immigra-
ton of it's population and multiply it's
own economic wealth by placing its
billions of undevelOped lands within
reach of its peasants. DR. Young
is the son Of a Teutonic Russian
farmer of Bessarabia, who came here
as a political exile fifteen years ago,
and afterward placed several thou
sand of his w-countrymen on
farms in our Western States.
He returned to Russia recently with
letters of introduction from President
Roosevelt and Secretary Root, for the
purpose of attracting Russian peas
ants to the uncultivated farm lands
of Texas. He was surprised to dis
cover not only that arrangements are
being made by the Russian Govern
ment to throw open millions of acres
of it's own land to its multitudinous
peasant and small farming class, but
also that Germans, Austrians, and
even Americans are today beginning
to immigrate into Russia to settle
upon and develop the Siberian farm,
timber, and mining lands which the
Russian Government, by means of the
completed Trans Siberian and pro-
jected Amur River Railroads, has for
several years been planning to open
up.

I[ALY'S ECONOMY
MAY BE EXPENSIVE
Murderer Will Go Back
Unguarded.

New York, Aug. (SpeciaD-
The fact that criminals, particularly
from Italy, are able to take advantage
of lOophole in our immigration laws
has again been demonstrated in the
case of Carlo Choppa, who is wanted
in Italy for three murders Choppa
was arrested several months ago
on his arrival here, while notice
was sent to the Italian police authori-
tets at Naples of his detention. Three
picked men of the Carabinieri were
sent over to bring him back, but
Choppa escaped from the island just
before they got there, and the detec-
tives went back to Italy without their
prisoner.
-Four weeks ago the Italian detec-
tive squad at Police Headquarters To-
Gated and arrested Choppa, and he
was again held for deportation. The
Italian authorities sent the same
three men of the Carabiniere.
The Italian officers found they
could not take Choppa with them to
Italy on an Italian vessel because
they did not have proper eXtradition
papers, and as he had come here in a
vessel of the French line he must if
deported, return as he had come, as
the law clearly states that all unde-
sirable aliens must be deported by the
same line on which they arrived
BY the aid of lawyer Choppa de-
manded that he should be deported by
the French line The law does not
make any special provision for Grim
mails, and his plea was accepted The
three carabinieri sailed last Thurs
day while Choppa remains on Ellis
Island awaiting deportation by the
French line. He will go as a free
passenger, and thus have a chance to
escape on the arrival of the French
steamship at Havre. The Italian
Government could have avoided the
trouble of sending over twice for
ChOppa by getting eXtradition pa
Ders but this would have meant an
outlay of $500 to $500. The Govern
ment saved this money, but now it
has to face the same condition in
order to get him back from France.
If it does not get eXtraditiOn pa
pers Choppa can go free when he
arrives at Havre, as there is no law
in France for the deportation of un-
desirable aliens.
The Sergeant had cents per day
as regular pay, and his two assistants
2 cents apiece In addition they had
special travelling allowance each
of 80 cents a day while away from
home in order that their absence
would not make any financial differ
ence to their wives and families.

AUSTRALIA WILL
WELCOME BIG FLEET
American Flags and Eagles
in Demand.

Sydney, Australia, Aug. 1.-THE
preparations for welcoming the Am
erican fleet at Sydney and Melbourne
this week are practically complete.
There will be an enormous influx oil
country population into Sydney anC
Melbourne, and in both cities most OF
the hotel and private lodging accom-

The demand for American flags is

been cabled to oversee houses to shiE

estimated that during the stay of the

population of the city will become
increased fully 100000, a wonderful

INHALING OXYGEN is
LONDON'S LATEST FAD

London, Aug. 18.-A new fad has
invaded London, that of inhaling oxy-
gen as a stimulant for mind and body.
Several West End chemists supply cy-
finders of oxygen to regular custo-
mers, whose numbers are growing.
According to one of these chemists
several society women are devotees of
the habit, and reputable physicians
acknowledge that with the increased
facilities for its supply it's use is
rapidly spreading.
The gas is supplied compressed in
iron cylinders fitted with a tap, and
on attaching a rubber tube and fun
mel, stream of gas, gentle or strong,
can be applied at will any direction.
Usually two or three minutes inhala-
ton on a gentle stream, mixed with
air, is sufficient at time
AS to the general use of the gas
indiscriminately by the public, medi-
cal opinion is adverse. 1t is unques-
tionably powerful and valuable slim
ulant, but excessive use is dangerous.
The ozone form of oxygen in minute
quantities is, of course, excellent but
when inhaled in larger quantities it
becomes a dangerous poison, causing
headache and irritation of the mucous
membrane, and so on So also pure
oxygen is absolutely dangerous and
must be largely diluted
A Harley street specialist, on being
questioned as to what would be the
effect on the system if oxygen were
taken regularly and in large quanti-
ties, said:
ct would simply mean that the Vi
tality of the body would be prema-
turely used up and would tend to
shorten life. If the heart were con
tinually stimulated with pure oxygen
its beats would be quicker and strong
er, and blood would circulate more
rapidly You would be living too fast
and your chances of reaching three
score years and ten would be very
small indeed"
