BARBED WIRE FENCES TO
KEEP OUT CATTLE TICKS
Secretary Wilson Authorized tx
Erect Barriers on Canadian and
Mexican Borders.

Apparently Secretary Wilson is this
year up against a hard proposition. Con-
gress has authorized and directed him
to build q barbed wire fence to keep out
cattle ticks. The Secretary Is instructed
to build fences along the international
boundary lines covering the several
thousand miles between this country and
Canada and the international boundary
between this country and Mexico. What
tho barbed wire fence against Canada Is
for does not appear from the specifica-
lions. but the southern fence is avQwedly
to keep out the cattle ticks that carry
Texas fever.
AS a matter Of fact the Secretary will
rely entirely on the MARRIED wire fence
because the ticks travel on cattle, and If
the cattle are kept out the ticks will stay
out. too.
Negotiations have been started between
the State Department and the government
Of Mexico for erecting the fence which Is
to cover the whole line not already pro-
tected by natural barriers.
The Department Of Agriculture found
several years ago that the ticks were the
carrying cause OF the cattle fever. and
has been working hard to reduce the
area Of infection In this country by sys-
lures. This has been 90 successful that
the quarantine line has been moved south
In severa1 OF the states where the fever
was formerly endemic, ana there ID hope
that In the course of time the whole of
the southern states will be cleared OF cat
tie fever, and about $11. 600, 900 saved an
nually to the southern cattle raisers.

HUNT SEALS IN MOTORS
JAPANESE HAVE NEW METHOD
OF EvADING THE LAW.
Department of Commerce and Labor
Will Investigate Alleged
Illegal Practice.

japanese pelagic sealers are reported
to be trying new tactics in the capture
of seals from the rookeries at PribiIof
Islands. The Department of Commerce
and Labor Is advised, through the cap
tain commandant of the United States
revenue cutter service, of the receipt of
a report from Senior Capt. D. P. Foley
Of that service at Port Townsend. Wash.
equipping their vessels engaged in hunt
ing seals with motor boats.
These boats, he states. go quickly near
the shore. within the three-mile limit, and
by firing gun brighten the seals into
the water, when they are chased beyond
the limit and slaughtered without vio-
lating the law. The motor boats. he re-
ports, can on the approach of patrol
vessel quickly get beyond the three-mile
limit before evidence can be obtained
trespass. These quick dashes of the
motor boats. he states, give the Japanese
immense advantage in conducting their
Illegal pelagic sealing and are a great
menace to the seal herd. Furthermore
1t is said, the boats are of sufficient
power to tow the vessels to which they
are attached within or without the limi;
in the conduct of their operations.
The report has been referred to Secre-
tary Nagel for such action as he. may
deem proper, as the administration of the
Pribilof Islands and the seal rookeries has
been transferred to the Department OF
Commerce and Labor under the act Of
April n, 1910. making provision for. the
protection of the seal fisheries and for
other purposes.
This new phase Of seal slaughter in
violation Of the spirit if not of the let
ter of the law is now being given con-
sideration by Secretary Nagel.

TRIBUTE TO FATHER
Why the Late King Chose the
Name of Edward VII.
PARENT THE ONLY ALBERT
Wanted Him to Have All the Glory
Attached to Name.
SPEECH TO THE PRIvY COUNCIL
No Thought of Self Except to De-
clare His Desire to Obey
the Laws.
PARENT THE ONLY ALBERT
SPEECH TO THE PRIvY COUNCIL

Along with the sadness that falls upon
the great realm over which King Edward
VII reigned, there comes the memory or
the death Of the late Queen Of England,
the pomp OF an imperial funeral, the
carefully planned ceremonial attending
the accession, the proclamation and the
meeting of the first parliament of ning
Edward. All of this pomp, down to the
merest detail, will be repeated again,
bringing to mind the historic hours at
tendant upon the death of Queen Vic
toria in 1901 and the accession and coro-
nation Of her son.
Bright among the memories of the regal
ceremonies Of that occasion is the short
and beautiful speech of King Edward
January d, 1901. the day after the death
of Queen Victoria, when he addressed the
council, and announced for all time that
out Of respect for his father, called AL
bert the Good, the kings name would go
down to history as Edward VII.
He desired that the name Albert (his
own as well as that of his father) should
be connected entirely with the memory
of the father.
The rest Of the ceremonial had been
planned in accordance with English Gus
toms five hundred years or more gone;
the late kings short speech seemed
human utterance-a sons tribute PAID
to his dead father, while the whole world
listened.
Text of First Speech.
The actual text Of the speech. officially
published in the London Gazette, was as
follows:
your Royal Highnesses, My Lords
and Gentlemen: This is the most pain
full occasion on which I shall ever be
called upon to address you. My first and
melancholy duty is to announce to you
the death of my beloved mother. the
queen, and I know how deeply you. the
whole nation, and I think may say the
whole world, sympathizeS with me IN the
irreparable loss we have all sustained.
II need hardly say that my constant
endeavor will be always to walk in her
footsteps. In understanding the heavy
load which now devolves upon me. am
fully determined to be a constitutional
sovereign in the strictest sense OF the
word. and as long as there is breath in
my body to work for the good and ameil-
Grafton Of my people.
II have resolved to be known by the
name of Edward. which has been borne
by six OF my ancestors. In doing so l do
not undervalue the name OF Albert. which
inherit from my ever to be lamented.
great and wise father, who by universal
consent is, think, deservedly known by
the name of Albert the Good, and l de-
sire that his name should stand alone.
I'm conclusion. 1 trust to parliament
and the nation to support me IN the ardu
Gus duties which now devolve upon me
by inheritance. and to which 1 am deter
mined to devote my whole strength dur
ing the remainder of my life

in THE FO|LS OF CUPID
STUYVESANT FISH, JR., TO WED
MISS MILDRED DICK.
Marriage to Take Place Next Au.
tumn-Groom Schooled in Rail-
way Business.

NEW YORK, May Mrs. Stuyvesant
firmed the report of the engagement of
Stuyvesant Fish, jr., and Miss Mildred
Dick. There has been an evident under
standing between the young couple for
several weeks, though formal an
nouncement had been made. The we'd
ding will not take place before next au-
tumn.
About two years ago the two young
persons met for the first time at Gar
risons, n. Y. Mr.. Fish and Mr.. Dick
have large country places there. Until
few years ago the Dicks lived in
Philadelphia. SO the acquaintance be-
tween the two families is comparative
~ recent.
Since their first meeting. however,
young Mr.. Fish and Miss Dick have
managed to see a great deal OF each
other. They are both fond of riding and
have often ridden together in Central
Park. They met frequently at dances,
and many of their week ends have been
spent in Garrisons, the scene of their
first meeting.
1nclines to Business Career.
Mr.. Fish is tall young man, who is
not afraid of work. He began immedi-
atey after his graduation from Yale, in
1906, to study the business of railroad
ing, from the ground up Much
amusement was aroused at the time,
from the fact that he went into the shops
of his fathers sterneSt competitor, the
late E. H. Hartman, who bested Mr..
Fish in at least one big business deal.
Stuyvesant, jr., went into the shops and
traffic department of the Illinois Cen
trail. and from there transferred to the
Rock Island. Two years ago, having
finished his course in railroading he de-
cided to study banking, and entered the
Office of Saloman & Co. Last May he
bought a seat for himself on the New
York Stock Exchange, where he still re-
mains. Because he has been SO busy he
has found comparatively little time for
social diversions, and except Tor wild
report of his elopement with Miss Mary
Harriman-whose engagement has also
just been announced-he has been cred
tied with no affairs of the heart.
Miss Dick is an only daughter Her
brothers, Fairman r. Dick and Evans
r. Dick, jr.. are well known in society
here and in Phila delphia. The family
lives at 81 East 18th street. Mrs. Dix
had nothing to say about the wedding
plans yesterday.
