SUDDEN RECALL
OF TANG SHAO VI
Mission Said 10 Have Been Enor-
mousIy Expensive, Giving Color
To Charges Of Extravaganza.
HE SAILS FOR EUROPE SOON
Asks for Farewell Audience WIN
secy. neutrality-suspicious. Does Not
signify Any Change Of Policy.

Pckin. Jan. s.-Tang shao VI who ~
al present In Washington on special
diplomatic mission from the Chinese
government, has been recalled TO PC
kin. lie viii return by Europe leaving
Washington Immediately
The American and British ministers
here have abandoned their project to
unite the various powers Ia "a protest
against disturbing the present policy
OF tho Chinese government which Is
thought to have been initiated In the
dismissal from office last week OF Yuan
shat Kai. a member OF the grand coun-
ell and this phase OF the question 10
now regarded at an end.
The mission of Tang Shao M has been
enormously expensive and In some
quarters here his summary recall Is re-
garded as giving color to the reports
that charges OF extrayagancc have Deeh
lodged against Yuan shat Kali
Tang Shao vi started on his mission
last fan under the auspices and WITH
the approval Of Yaun shat kai.
Washington Jan. S-Ambassador
Tang has addressed note 10 secy'
Root asking for a farewell audience
and stating that he expects TO sail for
Europe In a few days. The reasons
FOR his departure are not stated at the
department. The announcement from
Pellln causes no great surprise here az
the feeling has been general that since
the dismissal OF Yuan Shat kai, as
grand councillor Tangs powerful
friend IN China, his tenure here has
been uncertain. Tang had made plans
for a much more extended stay, and
contemplated a visit 20 various eastern
educational Institutions TO receive an
honorary degree az one OF them ana u
renew acquaintance Of his boyhood
| Il was declared at the embassy that
| his recall was no mark OF hostility TO-
ward the ambassador and did not I'M
dictate any change OF policy on the par

PRISON BOARD HEARS
,s.. FURTHER FARM OFFERS

Commissioners Evans and Williams. of
the state prison department. were still
busy hearing offers of land Saturday
morning, in the commissions rooms at
the capitol Governor Smith, on account
of accumulated business in his own Of
fee, could not sit with them. 80 2h
IA number of offers have already been
heard. but more are vet to come. The
commission entered upon it's investiga-
lions i'm this form-a hearing at which
the owner of the land appears in person
and describes the property he offers-with
more than 200 bids on file I'm writing. The
hearing will continue till February T.,
next Thursday.
we have gone far enough to know
that we can buy good farm at a rea-
sonable price, said Governor Smith, Sat-
urday morning. when asked what the re-
suits that far had been, r.. 20. fts-s~
Judge Turner, chairman of the COM
mission, was reported as improving, Sat-
urday morning. His fellow commission
ers have strong hope that he will be able
to sit with them on the farm-purchase
matter before a week or ten days have
expired. The commissions chairman win
at least, IL is believed. be able to lend
his assistance in the final work of Sc
lecting a farm. rr -
When the matter has been further mar
rowed down, or some time soon after
February 4, the commission will make
first-hand investigation of the offers
most favored by them. The governor
will not go out with them then, he says,
but will himself look over the farm that
they finally recommend for purchase.

GOVERNORS SONS
AND EDITOR FIGHT

MONTGOMERY, Ala, Jan. 'SO.-Shortly
after noon, today Fletcher and Donald
Conner, sons Of Governor B, B. Conner,
met Frank, p. Glass. editor Of the Mont
geometry Advertiser. on the street and en-
gagged him in a fight. 'l' '+f
Mr.. Glass was knocked down and his
face bruised. He seems to have been hit
with fist only. At this time no arrests
have been made, though warrants for the
Corners have been issued.
The trouble is a result of the feeling
that has grown up between the governor
and the paper as a result of a damage
suit in which the governor secured ver-
dict of one cent.
Mr.. Glass made the following, state
ment:
IT was walking down Dexter avenue.
near the postoffice, when l was approach
ed by two men, whom 1 did not know.
One of them said: Are you Mr.. Glass, OF
the Advertiser? I answered that / was
whereupon one of them, / don't know
which, struck. me with his fist. He said
to me: L am tired of the attitude OF the
Advertiser towards my father, and with
that he struck me- He said also that if
the Advertiser did not cease its attitude,
that worse would happen to me. The
whole affair was unexpected"
Mr.. Glass is not seriously hurt.

GEORGIA'S WILD LANDS
FAST DISAPPEARING

That Georgia's wild lands are yearly grow
ing smaller in area rs shown by the records
of the comptroller generals office r
No compilation has vet been made Of the
wild lands in the state at the close Of 1908,
but IL the rate of decrease shown by pre-
vious wears IS maintained there will be very
few more than 1900. 900 acres of undisturb,d
primevai forest within the confines of Geor-
gia at the time the statement is drawn up.
wild lands are a separate classification
on the records of the COMPTROLLER general of
unimproved. untitled and probably untenant-
ed areas IN the states territory. If tract
Of land be but partially improved. however,
It is Chased wholly improved so the state
ment of wild lands covers only those divi-
sions of the states soil where the hand OF
man has not yet disturbed the arrangement OF
nature. Four million acres. or whatever the
final figures determined to be, is. there
fore. a minimum representation of Georgia
wooded TERRITORY s.- --. L
In 1906 the wild lands covered an area Of
s.2S2 99l acres. In 1907 the area had diminish
ed TO 4.774.124 acres. half a million less. Its
extent at the close Of 1908 is yet 10 be deter
mined accurately.
Most of this wild land. Il is stated, is to
be found in the mountains of north Georgia
and in the flat lands of south Georgia. great
part OF Il being covered by the mammoth
Okeefeenokee swamp in southeast Georgia.
None of it, however, is public land. There Is
no more public land in this state. A large
number Of counties are absolutely free OF Wild
lands In them the human invader has pene-
trated to the last corner. But the majority
OF Georgia counties have at least some wild
land within ;heir limits. and a few Of them
have very little of any other kind.
