Find Of Rare Specimens.

One day, while in Paris, this keen phila-
telist discovered in a dealers shop three
sets Of the rare first issue Of Moldavia,
which he promptly purchased for $1,000
He would go to any length himself, and
he expected others to go to the same
trouble where a prospective treasure was
concerned. One day he received an offer
OF the very rare West Australian I'D
stamp. with the swan center inverted Just
as he was starting to go to the south of
France. and Mr.. Peckitt who was Sir
William Ave-y's philatelic adviser, relates
how he was pounced down upon and
dragged along to Cannon street station

advice on SO important a matter The
purchase was completed. and the stamp.

TO URGE FIVE BILLS
CONSERV1TION ONE.
Measures President Deems
Necessary to Keep Pledges.

,,;n,,on Feb 4-President Taft had
,.oraI conferences to-day with members
80 18th houses of Congress regarding the
,;I,.fy. programme In some recently
,,,,,1ished statements purporting to set
to,,b the Presidents attitude 1t was said
-, =, vo,,ld nress only four measures
.. this session of Congress. The list omit
m -afarence to the conservation bills.
-, .raas the President has repeatedly point
al o,,+ that he would insist, SO far as he
,.eitimateIv could, that some at least or
- ,o,servation measures should be en-
.c,ed into law before the present session
adjCurns.
The hills which the President declared to-
dav that he looked for Congress to pass
in redemption of solemn party pledges are
these
Establishing postal savings banks
Amending and strengthening the inter
state commerce law
The conservation measures. giving the
President the right to Withdraw public
lands from entry and to continue the With
frawal until revoked by hlmsef or by an
act of Congress, and providing TOT re
classification of the lands. These two bills
may be consolidated:
The anti-injunction bill
Statehood for New Mexico and Arizona
In addition TO these the President has
re, onnn1ended several other matters of leg
isiation, including bills for new form of
government in Alaska. for federal corpora
tons and creating a public health bureau
MI Taft let it be known that while ne
would urge only the five measures set
forth as party pledges, he has by no means
abandoned the other measures he mas rec
commended. and will call the attention or
Congress to them again at the beginning
Of the next session. He will continue 10
urge them until some definite action is
taken on them. AS the other measures
largely reflect his personal views, however
the President does not think they should
stand in the way at this time of bills de-
signed to fulfil party pledges.

and that the friends of the proposed leg

vain for authority to enact law to encour-
age thrift and savings. In the second

said because il violated a fundamental
principle of good government by requiring
the United States To- engage in business
which belonged distinctly to individuals and
corporations Finally. Mr.. BaileE MAIN

would produce more harm than good
In an effort to reconcile the differences

approval of the administration Four
