Eradication i'm Agricultural Bill.

Washington. March 25.-In ex-
planning the purpose of the agri-
cultural appropriation bill Mr. Scott
of Kansas in thehouse of representa-
tives called attention to the ravages
of the brown tail moths and the
Texas cattle tick. The former. he
said, were rapidly destroying the
groves and forests of the New Eng
land states, while the Texas tick
had been one of the greatest pests
known. The loss could not even be
guessed at, but he estimated that
the annual loss suffered by the
states south of the line could not be
less than s40,000.000.
The committee had recommended
S25O,O0O in each case. The cotton
boil weevil also was discussed by
Mr. Scott. No emergency appropria-
ton. however, was included in the
bill for that reason, but it contain
ed an appropriation for continuing
the work of eradication.

The Peruvian law permits the
registration of any trade mark or
trade name not hitherto REGISTERED in
Peru. The effect of this is that any
person can register a mark or name
that he has no proprietary interest
in, to the exclusion of the real
owner, provided he is first in max
ing application. Having registered
he may manufacture a spurious ar
ticle under this mark or name,
while the genuine article can not be
introduced at all; or he may compel
the rightful owner to purchase his
registered rights at an excessive
price. Registration is an easy mat
ter and should not be neglected.

ceived dispatch from Pekin stat
ing that the vessel had been deliver
ed to the Japanese, and that the
Japanese flag had been saluted ;also
that an agreement had been reach
ed between the two countries to
draw up a convention that would
prevent the smuggling of arms in
the future. 1t was stated at the
state department that China has
lately been endeavoring to prohibit
the importation of arms and am
munition for the use of bandits and
revolutionists. The zeal of the
Chinese customs officers to prevent
such importation was the cause of
the seizure CT the Tatsu Maru.

THE MISSION OF THE BREEZE

The farthest depths of a forest
Gave birth to a tiny breeze
Whose feeble fluttering gained
glade,
Fringed round with slender trees.
The sunlight filtered through the
leaves,
Deep blue the sky o'erhung,
Incense came from the flowery fields
AS when a hymn is sung.
With tremulous heart the breeze
uprose
To seek that wonderland
Whence shone the CLEAN Of blue
and gold
And sweet perfumes expand.
The tree tops gained, the breeze,
with strength
b. Increasing as 1t scared
SKINNED DER the earth full many
length
And ne'er its shade deplored.
But soon the breeze's gentle flight
To garden was beguiled,
And flowers turning to the light,
A fragrant welcome smiled.
Straight down it swept to the gar
den fair,
A kiss on each flower pressed
And took in return the fragrance
From blossoms it stirred and ca
ressed. "r =f'--
Thus sweetly laden, on 1t flew.
With gladness shiv'ring drought
Till underneath it stretched to view
A city grave and mute.
A sound as of the swelling wind
Advanced to meet the breeze;
It surged from out a church en-
shrined,
Like the roaring of the seas.
Then breathing gently and unheard,
The breeze stole softly through
The window, like little bird,
That seeks a shelter true.
The anthem, pealing higher and
higher,
An ave Maria" grand,
Came forth no stronger from the
choir,
Than from the childrens band.
The priests deep voice, the chant
began,
And childish trebles swelled
The chorus, till from every heart
The fervent praises welled.
The breeze passed through the
vaulted place,
And quivring with delight,
Received the hymn to Mary's grace,
Poured forth from souls contrite.
The fragrance culled from the gar
den fair
Was left at the altar rail;
The hymn was borne by the breeze
on high,
Like a cloud before gale.
E EN- to the gates of paradise
Assembled the holy wind,
Where angel voices ever praise
The queen of all mankind.
Then sped the breeze to its forest
home,
Its work of love was, done. -.
But angels sing Hail, Mary" still
Around the queens bright throne.
