Germany has u better investment in

Paul Rohrbach. who has gone over the
ground thoroughly. DR.. Rohrbach says
that eighteen months ago estimates of
from $25,OOO.000 to $500OO.00O as the
value of the Luderitz bay properties
were dismissed as unduly optimistic.
These properties include all the claims
between the twenty-siXth degree of
south latitude and the Orange river.
One of these claims which has an area
Of 1880 acres and is in the neighbor-
hood of Luderitz bay, will, he says,
yield this year diamonds to market
value of $o5,Oo0,000.
This property has been worked SUI
periicially by the same company for
two years. and the results already OBJ

The battle of science against the dis

city annually began even before Mr..
Croker died. The $4,000 he donated
to the trustees of the university was
used in research work. 1t was only
the beginning of the scientific warfare
that is now being waged with the
means provided by Mr.. Crocker. For
the past six months a corps of scien-
lists, under direction Of the Crocker
research committee, has been quietly
at work in Europe.
The scientists have delved into every
form of cancer that has come to their
notice on the continent since they have
been there. They have made no new
discoveries with regard to the disease,
but have begun a series Of laboratory
investigations and experiments. The
results will be made known to the
world as soon as their positive value
can be determined.

for a clerk Woodrow Wilson had just

and the former student wanted to find

"There is no portrait of Wilson in

By J. A. EDCERTON.
RESIDENT WOODROW WILL
SON OF Princeton university Is
being doomed for governor Of
New Jersey as a preliminary to
his nomination as the Democratic can
didate for president That Is the lat
est big political fact that has chal-
ienged the notice Of the American peo-
pie.
The sponsors Of Wilson's boom for
president and therefore of his candi-
dacy for governor are said to be ex-
Senator James Smith of New Jersey.
Roger G. Sullivan Of Illinois and Colo
mel George Harvey. editor Of Harper's
Weekly. The announcement was made
after President Wilson had been in
conference at the Lawyers club In
New York.
For all of these several reasons and
some others political wiseacres opine
that Wall street is back Of the move
They recall that Colonel Harvey
fought Roosevelt. that Roger Sullivan
was read out Of the Democratic party
by Bryan and that ex-senator Jim
Smith has long been regarded as lit
tie brother of the trusts
However these things be. the big pa
pers Of the country are taking Wood
row Wilson's candidacy for governor
of New Jersey seriously. and If he
should be nominated and elected to
that office his candidacy for the pres-
dency would be more serious yet.
Therefore he is factor to be reckoned
with.
