Limits of Arbitration.

The supreme court of the United
States has won another victory. It's
decisions will not be renewable as such
by the international prize court. Our
government mas signed the convention
establishing the latter tribunal with a
protocol reservation asserting the i'm
munity of our Judiciary from interna-
tional review Two principles appear
to have been saved the independence
Of the national judiciary and the estab-
lishment Of the international tribunal.
The latter cannot review an unsatis-
factory decision, but it may hear pro-
ceedings de novo, and may give iudg-
ment that shall be merely an award
OF damages, if damages are found to
have been sustained. To the Law mind
this may appear to be distinction
without very great difference, but new.
ertheless ii prevents what some observ-
ers have thought would be a menace
endangering the whole fabric of inter-
national arbitration. IL keeps the iuris-
diction of an international court outside

The constitution Of the United States
left our government no choice but to
refuse to allow appeals from our federal
courts, but Judging from the readiness
with which fourteen other nations have
concurred in approving our protocol they
too have a suspicion of constitutional
difficulties of their own. Apprehension
Of the international principle being
pushed so far as to threaten the indie
pendence Of their judiciary, may also
have influenced their acquiescence in the
position Of the United States. II seems

BABY's CHARMED LIFE,


A strange but fully authenticated
wolf story comes from the western
government of Volhynia. A poor
peasant woman carrying her baby
daughter started from the small
township Of Ovrutch to walk to the
village of Naradisch, a distance Of
some twenty miles. A section of the
road skirted the forest, and here the
unfortunate muzhittsa was attacked
by wolves and literally devoured.
The extraordinary feature Of the in
cident, in itself common enough
during the winter season, is that the
infant, alive and well and perfectly
unharmed, was found within cou-
pie of PAGES from its mothers ghast-
ly remains. The wolf-pack, num-
bering 13 animals, was seen in the
same neighborhood on the following
day.

DEW WATER.

The ancient "dew ponds of Eng
land have their modern counterparts
on the Rock of Gibraltar, where
drinking water is obtained by the
condensation of the abundant dew
in specially prepared basins. The
primitive process consists in making
a hollow in the ground, and filling
the bottom with dry straw, over
which is placed layer of clay. On
a clear night the clay cools very rap
idly, and the dew is condensed into
water in the basin. The pond is i'm
proved by putting a layer of asphalt
or Portland cement under the straw.
AT Gibraltar the present practice is
to use wood instead of straw and
sheet iron instead Of clay.

An extraordinary series of at

one day lately, when an ex-soldier
named George Williams, 10, was
charged with attempting suicide. He
was found in a street at Battersea
with handkerchief tied tightly
round his neck, and upon recovering
consciousness declared he knew
nothing of the affair. He added:
"When in the army I was once
found with my belt tied around my
neck, and another time / inhaled
gas. next fastened a chain round
my neck, and later I tried to starve
myself. I do not remember doing
these things, but have been told Of
them" Williams was remanded for

HAS PLAN FOR EGG CIRCLES
Somewhat Novel Idea to Increase
Production 10 Advocated by
Australian Expert.

A government poultry expert who
has just completed an extensive tour
Of the several states of the Australian
commonwealth has issued recon-
mendations designed to increase and
cheaper the production of eggs.
The experts idea is, briefly, the
creation of "egg circles" in the states
which have not yet adopted that
plan. One Of the states has already
21 of these centers, consisting prin-
cipally of small farmers. The Sec
retary of each center receives, tests
and grades the eggs, pays cash for
them at the current market rate, and
sends them to the government cool
stores. The government does the
marketing, and at the end of each
quarter any profits are divided
among the suppliers. The secretary
of each center receives one cent a
dozen for the eggs he handles. Un-
der this method there is no middle
mans profit. The grading and test
ing is very strict, and no egg under
two ounces in weight is passed.
The expert claims for his scheme
that it will increase the production
of eggs and table poultry throughout
the commonwealth by 800 per cent.
