Disappointed Again.

The collapse Of the company which
was organized in England to prosecute
the Druce claim to the title and es'
tates OF the duke of Portland Is typical
Of the fate that usually awaits such
enterprises. The corporation was or.
ganized and shares were taken by
sanguine individuals who professed to
believe there really was chance to
oust the present holders OF the lands
and the dukedom. but who have only
complete failure to show in return for
the money invested. Schemes OF this
and similar kinds are not unknown
in other countries. including our own.
Associations have been formed to get
hold OF valuable lands. treasure hidden
by pirates and other more or less
mysterious II not mythical property,
but very rarely has there been profit to
anyone except the lawyers and other
agents who have been paid to look up
the cases. Unclaimed and unappropri'
ated estates and unveritied titles are
by no means as numerous as some
credulous persons are ready to be-
lieve

One OF the notable new structures
in Washington will be the building
which is to be the home OF the Bureau
OF American Republics. Thus there
will be provided permanent headquar.
tiers for an international organization
which is working out great results for
this hemisphere. The governing board
of the bureau, which includes repre-
sentatives from all the Latin American
countries. has decided by a unanimous
vote to place in the building a testimo-
nial to Hon. Elihu Root. secretary of
state, in recognition of his services in
maintaining and strengthening friend
ly relations between the Latin. .Amerl-
can republics and this government.
That is graceful and appropriate ac-
ton. The form of the testimonial has
not been determined, but there is no
doubt that something appropriate and
dignified will be selected.

GETTING Closer Together.

The Pan.American Scientific Con
sress, to be held at Santiago. Chile,
next December. will be gathering OF
much significance. Congress has been
asked to appropriate $35.000 that this
country may be properly represented,
1t being in contemplation to send IS
delegates from :he United States.
Leading universities are taking up the
matter and may be represented indie
pendently. The congress will con
slider American social questions. with
a view to presenting to the world the
advantages of the western hemisphere.
The program OF the session. which Is
to begin December 25 and continue
ten days. will include review O.
American civilization and its develop.
ment and influence on the world. Nc
cessarily the proceedings will tend to
draw the countries concerned into
closer and more sympathetic associa-
ton. and in all this the United States
will bear a notable part.

Disastrous spring floods can be pre-
vented. according to the chief hydro.
grapher Of the government He has
lately proposed that detention reser-
voirs be built along the upper reaches
OF the rivers. in which the rains and
melting SHOWS shall be collected only
to flow out slowly and In such volume
as will do no damage to life or prop
erty. The loss occasioned by the
floods in the valley of the Ohio river
in January and March of las: year has
been estimated at 500. 900. 900 That
sum spent for reservoirs. the hydro.
grapher thinks. would make the valley
safe hereafter. The government is al.
ready building large reservoirs in the
west for the storage OF water to be
used for irrigation. but the land thero
is cheap in comparison with that in
the Ohio valley: but II the use OF
thousands of acres for reservoirs
would prevent the disastrous foods
the residents of the valley would
doubtless think that the land was
serving good purpose.

War upon anarchists will never be
successful as long as it is carried on in
a spasmodic manner. When some re-
voting assassination is committed by
these murderers the cry goes out for
their suppression and an effort Is
made to locate them and keep them
under watch. They keep in the back
ground then for time until an op-
portunity arises and another assassi.
nation shocks the world. Until com.
plete system Of police espionage is es.
tablished in every quarter of the
world and anarchists are treated as
criminals of the most dangerous sort
their villainous deeds will continue.

CARLISM LIKELY TO DE
WITH DON CARLOS

From vienna comes news that
Don Carlos. pretender to the throne
OF Spain, is DYING.
Don Carlos aspired 10 the span.
ish throne from ises until few
years ago. when be "sbdicatcd" In
favor Of his son. Don jaime. the
present pretender Carlos was
fourth in line Of pretenders. the
first having been Carlos. count Of
Molina. grandfather % Don Car.
los. The first pretender was a
fighter and only went into exile
after seven-year civil war in the
mountain provinces OF Spain. His
son and his two grandsons. who
have successfully held the title
since. have done more long range
pretending than fighting. Don Car.
los headed Carlist uprisings IN 1863
1870. 1879 and 1873. and the last
one was not crushed until 1876.
Since then Carlos has lived in
France and Austria. For many
years he was In direst poverty. but
after the death OF his first wife.
whom he had neglected and abused.
he married. in 1894. the very
wealthy Princess Marie Berthe de
Rohan. Carlos has been falling In
health for some years.
Don Jaime. Carlos successor as
pretender is said to be the weakest
specimen OF humanity who has vet
held the title, and Carlism bids fair
to die with Don Carlos.
