Three of the worlds greatest nations,
with the United States as the central
figure and moving spirit. joined hands to-
day in opening the way to the coveted
goal of statesmen of modern tfmes-uni-
versal peace
America and Great Brit2 in and America
and France have signed general arbitra-
ton treaties for the peaceful settlement
of all disputes that may come up in the
future, even though they concern the ma
tional honor or vital interests Of the sign
stories. subjects invariably excepted in
existing arbitration treaties.
Representative of the three countries
gathered at the White House at , O'Clock
this afternoon, when the treaties were
signed. President Taft witnessed the
signing of the pacts. The Anglo-Ameri-
can treaty was signed first and then the
Franco-American treaty. Secretary OF
State Knox signed for the United States
and Ambassador Bryce attached his ram
for Great Britain. Jean Jules Jusserand
had signed the Franco-Amcriean treaty
in Raris. on behalf OF the French nation,
six hours earlier in the day Frances
only representative at the ceremony at
the White House was Eiscaunt Saint
Phalle, vice consul in New York
Comment was made that Frances rep
resentative should be a minor subordinate
in the consular service instead of some
official of the embassy, but ii is stated
that as the viscount's only duty Was as d
witness it is entirely different from the
case of Great Britain, which country con-
ferred full power upon Amba ssador Bryce
to sign the treaty for that country.
The AnglO-American treaty became ef-
fective. While the Franco American pact
is technically not in effect until the
copies signed here and in France are eX-
changed and signed by representatives OF
the two countries.

Dinner at White House.

The plans of Admiral Togo. in which
both the State and Navy departments
have had a hand. call for a stay il
Washington of four days. The program
includes a state dinner at the White
House Saturday evening, a dinner by
the Secretary of State Monday, together
with a trip on one of the navy yachts
to Mount Vernon and to Indian Head
proving ground. The admiral will go &c
Annapolis by train. The Japanese am
bassador, the Nippon Club of New York
and the Japanese Society of America also
will be his hosts.
Froe Washington Admiral Togo plans
to go to Baltimore and Philadelphia and
later to Boston and Niagara Falls. Al
Mia CARA he will cross into Canada anc
proceed to Vancouver over the Canadian
Pacific railway. At Vancouver he viii
take ship for home.
In a recent statement regarding Ad
miral Togos visit Commander Hira ga
said:
tastes He is modest and retiring. He
IS disinclined to display. and, much as he
appreciates the honor of the invitation on
the part of the American people to he
their guest, he Is the last man in the
world to make q pageant of his American
sojourn.
THE admiral appreciates deeply the
honor conferred upon him by this invi-
tation. His original plans called for an
extensive European tour following his
attendance at the coronation of King
George V. When the invitation from
the Americans came to him he imme-
diately Cancelled this plan.
Will Allay Sentiment.
'The admiral believes that his coming
to the United States as the nations guest
will do much to allay the remaining SEN
timent of mistrust of Japan in the hearts
of the American people, and will serve to
prove the friendship felt in Japan for
the United States
That Admiral Togo will be extended
every courtesy when he comes to this
country and that he will be allowed to
make a complete tour of as many navy
yards as he wants to was the statement
made at the Navy Department today.
In connection with the announcement
that Admiral Togo will be allowed all the
privileges of the navy yards Assistant
Secretary of the Navy Winthrop took oc-
casion to deny the report recently pub
lished that Secretary Meyer had issued
orders to commandants of navy yards
instruCting them to maintain the strict
est secrecy hereafter and not allow for
eign experts to inspect the yards. Mr.
Winthrop said there was no basis for the
report.
The Japanese admiral, he said, will
have every opportunity to see all that is
interesting in our navy yards and he viii
be welcomed aboard any battleships or
armored cruisers that happen to be in the
vicinity. Points of interest In the ad-
mirars itinerary will be the navy and
army schools at Annapolis and West
Point, respectively.

work II needs oil, but all surplus oil
must be carefully wiped off afterward.
Always work it steadily and never
start or stop with a jerk. The best
way To finish off with machine seam
is To turn the material around and
stitch backward for about an inch.
This saves tying the ends of cotton
which is annoying work and takes up
a great deal of time If there are many
seams.

WAR ON THE suLLHsAp.
Alaska Salmon Is In Danger Of Ex-
termination.

In the interest of Alaskan salmon
the determination of the freshwater
sculpin, called also "millcrs thumb"
"bull head" or blob" is urgently de
manded. II is a worthless fish with
a tendency To- feed on salmon fry and
salmon eggs. and has Voracious APP
petite and wonderful digestive appa-
ratus.
Messrs Bean and Weed Of the divi-
sion Of fishes. United states National
museum. have recently investigated
the blob" and find that II is extreme
~ destructive TO salmon eggs. These
fish have no trouble gathering in the
fry, two or three inches long, and oc-
oasionally manage To corner some
larger ones.
Fourteen blobs were found to have
made way with 80 salmon and 4G eggs,
an average of almost three salmon and
a little over three eggs for each fish.
These blobs were not at all particular
about holding 90 the average. as some
OF them had exceeded Il materially, nor
did they bear out the theory well
known To every fisherman that the
bait is first turned by the fish and
swallowed head foremost. The blobs,
it seems, eat them both ways. The de-
structivc avcragb of the blob is esti-
mated at six salmon a day which is
maintained for about 60 days year.
This would make. the destructive ca
pacity of one fish total 800 salmon am
nually, To say nothing of the little
trout gathered i'm and sometimes little
blobs. The latter kind of feeding
however meets with the approval of
the fish experts.
Blobs in general are bottom fish and
prefer to remain hidden under sto es
etc. 1t is just in similar places that
young salmon and trout hide at GER
tain hours of the day, usually when
| the sun Is hottest. 1t is then that the
blobs can get them with the least diff
fculty.
The greedincss of some of the blobs
was most remarkable. one had eater
seven salmon. five of which were about
! two inches long and the other two
nearly three inches long. The last fist
lcaten had been swallowed tail first. As
there was no room i'm the blob's stom'
ach for this one, only its tail was founC
there. while it's head stretched up int,
the mouth of the blob.
