sound. The extensive damage to the ship caused by the bad weather has entailed heavy bill for repairs, to which must be added the cost of the new stores ordered by Captain Scott to replace those lost on the voyage south.
 But what has, in the opinion of the committee. most changed the conditions under which the expedition left England is the fact that the Terra Nova has uneX- pectedly come across the Norwegian ex- petition under Captain Amundsen, whose deliberate intention and purpose is to make a dash for the pole in advance of Scott. Captain Scotts exact intentions in she new circumstances cannot be known, but the committee feel that this imrni- nent competition must have the effect of producing very great stimulus to the British expedition
 The committee plead strongly for these gallant men who are doing national work, and they are confident that the British public will not abandon them by allowing the expedition to ''miscarry'' and fail for the want of the $75,OoO which they now ask

 "The Terra Nova. heavily laden. left New Zealand on November % 1910, and returned there on March 31, 1911, after having safely landed the expedition and carried out the orders received from her commander. The letters brought by her from Captain Scott showed that the ship on her voyage south had met terrible weather and had been near to founder ing Later she had been beset in the lee, and much valuable time had been lost, but in the end the expedition had been landed successfully at Cape Evans in McMurdo

market s1.75 to S2 ton, but it was formerly much lower than $20O a ton. The price of brooms has substantially doubled within the past 20 years. The increase of carpet sweepers and vacuum cleaners does not, moreover, seem to have in the least decreased the demand for brooms. In fact. probably the increase in demand has had something to do with the increase in price.
 But think of $l75 ton for farm prod uct, New England land, especially some portions of the Connecticut soil, will, with intelligent tllage, produce excellent broom corn. It is not difficult to raise. It requires no expensive machinery for it's preparation for the market. And tho market here must be more reachable than in the southwest New England farmers used to raise a little broom corn for their own use, and found that it paid. Might they not find it desirable to go into the raising of broom corn by the acre?

RUSSIA MEANS ID
 GET HER SHARE

St. Peatersburg, December 9-(SpeciaD- The impression is growing here that the revolutionary movement in China means the partition of the Chinese empire. and when the time to divide comes Russia in tends to have her share.
 I have already told of how Russia s forces in Manchuria have been quietly strengthened. Not since the Russia-Jap- anese war has Russia had as strong a force in the country beyond Lake Barkal and this work is still being carried on with vigor.
 Now a rumor is current here to the ef- feet that Japan and Russia already are discussing the division of Manchuria Russia to take the northern and Japan the Southern portion of the Manchuria provinces The suggestion, l understand. came from Japan.
 The Empress Marie of Russia has just celebrated her birthday. She was once Princess Dagmar of Denmark. and is a woman of wit and charm, and has many personal attractions. In former days she wore priceless jewels and dressed to per lection, and was gay, fond of social life, and of laughing. talking, and dancing. Indeed, on occasion she would go skat- ing and sleighng with the ladies of her court on the private lake of a palace gar den near St. Petersburg. She has pluck and courage far beyond the average. The story goes that she once saw small jewel case which she did not remember

The Grand Duchess Olga. the eldest daughter of the Tsar. has just celebrated her sixteenth birthday Richly lowered by her grand-fathers the late Emperor. and also by the State. the Grand Duch- ess will be one of the wealthiest prin- cesses in the world. Carefully educated it is said that she already is a highly ac- complished little lady In common with most Russians of the higher classes, she is an excellent linguist, and speaks not only Russian but also English and French. During the whole of her school days she has had a special master in the language of her own country, and has learnt to write it's difficult characters with as much ease as she does English. The Tsars children have a decided par tiality for English and French, those be- ing the languages usually spoken at Court.
 Many are the stories told of Grand Duchess Olga's escapades. One tells how, when she started her music lessons, her English goVerness was mortified, on en- tering one day, to find her small pupil playing the piano with her heels. What are you doing?" asked the bewldered governess. "Oh." came the reply, when grow up I am going on the musc-halls as a trick pianist"

Inc remainder of the thirty big

has purchased about $4,000, 900 worth

The new freight cars are being
made by the Pressed steel Car Com

mediate use. Those that have been
sent out are among the finest exam
pies OF steel cars seen Work On the
remaining 400 cars is being rushed

carry the big coal shipments that are
being held back for the completion
Of the line from Cumberland to Con

The Western Maryland Railroad Is
fast becoming an able competitor of
MI the other lines within reach. New
industries are being persuaded to To-
cate along its lines and other efforts
are being made to secure new BUSH
aess. The traffic agreement with the
New York Central Railway and the
building CT the new extension are both
expected TO add greatly to the reve-
rue. Double tracking has been done
at many points and this will enable
the company to make speedier deliv-
cries and better handle its shipments.
The new equipment that has been
ordered will allow the company to
contract for more hauling than here

toward mere than a successful fiscal

A feature OF the Importance OF the

Is the possibilities OF. through the
