In the nine years Of its existence the
Prisoners Aid department of the Diocese
of Washington has assisted more than
80, 900 persons caught in the tolls OF the
law whom it believed worthy of its aid.
This remarkable record for good works
has interested many Washingtonians in
the welfare of the prisoners aid, but at
the present time it stands in need Of
more than s400,O to carry on its labors
and do still more work.

MEXICAN ORDERS
Start Agitation to Develop
Trade Relations.

London. May 2O.-Great Britain has
$3.50, 900 capital sunk in Mexico, while
the United States has $685. invested
in that country, but only about 10 per
cent of Mexico's foreign trade is with
the United Kingdom. This fact has
been ranking in the breasts of the ninety
members of the Mexican section of the
London Chamber of Commerce, which
Is beginning a vigorous agitation in
favor of the developent of trade rela-
tions between Mexico and Great Britain.
One Of the hindrances to the intro
duction of British manufactures into
Mexico hitherto has been the high
freights that have ruled between Great
Britain and Mexico as compared with
Continental ports. The various shipping
lines have. however, arranged for re-
adjustment of rates which will equalize
freights from July l next. A special

Paris. May 2o.-Corsica, the birthplace

fore long. If the French government be
not careful No doubt the Inhabitants
Of that island are jealous and yindictive
and make excellent bandits, stilI-Corsica
is not a French colony, but French

By the constitution, a Corsican is a
Frenchman as much as a Partisan Is
a Frenchman. Unfortunately, the repub-
lie has always kept at arms length the
island that gloried in having produced
Napoleon Bonaparte.
During the Empire the sons Of Corsica
were In favor. Under the republic they
are enemies and outcasts. Hence, al
though the soil Is rich and there should
be enough for every man. woman, and
child. dreadful misery exists and the cry
now is-famine.
NJ. Clemenceau once offered Corsica to
any one who would take it. That was
his blum, for Italy would accept the gift
without hesitation. The republican gov
ernment must devise some means to
check the revolt. for already there are
too many signs of general crumbling
to pieces In France, which. II not dealt

oous smash.
