who was arrested Saturday on the
charge of abducting the ffteen-year-
old daughter Of Mr.. and Mrs. Payer of

NEW CALIFORNIA PROBLEM
Opening of Canal to Increase lmmi-
grants by $4,000 a Year

San Francisco, Dec. IA report of
the California Developing Board,
which has recently been making a
study of the possible effect of the
Panama Canal upon California and
has sent man on an extended trip
of investigation to anticipate, if pos
sible. the number and the class of
foreigners that might be expected to
immigrate directly to California fol-
lowing the opening of the canal. says:
Advance estimates are hazardous,
but it is thought that the canal will
not be opened very long before a tot
al annual crop of $4,000 native Euro
peans will be poured out by the
steamship companies onto the Pacific
coast
"And 1t is debatable point in Cali
fOrnia now whether the State should
encourage or discourage direct for
eign immigration through the Pana-
ma Canal. In the Panama Canal,
every agency is being organized to
prepare the way so that these expect
ed foreigners may be directed back
to the soil. Californians realize that
IL this is not done their cities will
soon have to face the perpIexng Stun
and sweatshop problem that is now
fastened upon the Eastern cities"

VIEW GRAIN ROUTE LAID OUT
Preparing Way. Between Siberian
Russia and England

London, Dec 6-The Nimrod, which
will always be associated with Shack
ieton's memorable Antartic expedi-
ton, has now exchanged the Union
Jack for the red, white and blue flag
of the Russian merchant service, and
is preparing the way for a new grain
route between Siberian Russia and
England
Russia has long been advised to
find a more satisfactory outlet for
her north Siberian produce than
those now existing The opening up
of the transsiberian railroad has in
creased the necessity for this, for it
has increased the Siberian popula-
ton and developed industries hither-
to practically dormant Transport by
rail, however, is very costly
By the time the Nimrod has COM
pleted her mission a new service of
tramp steamers will be ready fol
trade between Nova Zembla and Eng
gland. On the southwest coast of No
va Zembla is a wonderful natural har
Dor, and this will be made a place of
transfer. The grain leaving Siberia
by the great river waterways Obi and
fenisei will be carried on boats spe-
cially built to withstand ice pressure.
These between July and October will
be busy depositing their cargoes on
Nova Zembla ready for transfer to
the new line of tramps. Great bene-
ht is expected to accrue to northern
Siberia and the English grain mar
kets through this new departure.

Stale Bread.

IL is generally supposed that the
staieness Of bread arises from its be-
coming actually drier by the gradual
loss OF water. but this is not the case.
remarks the Bakers Weekly. Stale
bread contains almost exactly the same
proportion OF water as new bread
after il has become completely cold.
The change is merely in the internal
arrangement Of the molecules of the
bread. A proof Of this is that II we
put stale loaf into a closely covered
tin. expose IL for half an hour or an
hour to heat not exceeding that Of
boiling water and then allow It TO cool
