BHAvSINHJI, MAHARAJAH OF BHAvNAGAR

The publication Of the history OF
the Rajkumar college OF Kathiawar In
western India has drawn into promi'
nent notice the movement for tho ed
ucation Of the chiefs and princes oi
India which was commenced half.a'
century ago on the model OF the
English public schools. The WORK
which has been sumptuously got up
gives a complete record OF the
growth Of the movement up to date
and serves as book OF reference
both with regard to the daily work
carried on in that seminary and the
two generation Of youths who have
passed through It's portals. In this
way 1t amply testifies to the success
which has been achieved by the insu-
tuition since its foundation. of which
many Of the reigning chiefs OF west
ern India themselves furnish living
examples.
AS rule the present generation OF
these princes may be regarded as a
notable Improvement upon their pre-.

PRINCE KATSURA OF JAPAN VISITS CAR

The present visit to Russia of the
japanese statesman, Prince Katsura.
Is a momentous development toward
completing the final details OF the
defensive alliance pact between Rus.
sia and Japan.
The actual agreement between the
former enemies was concluded same
time ago and probably will be signed
soon.
The agreement consists OF two
parts. one dealing with the delimita.
ton OF the spheres OF influence of
Russia and Japan In Mongolia and
Manchuria, which is similar In scope
and character to the Anglo-Russian
accord Of August 81. 1907. regarding
Persia. The second part deals with
the duty OF the two nations for a
Joint defense In case either power Is
attacked.
The RussoJapanese agreement Of
July 4, 1910. providing for the main.
tenance jointly Of the status quo in
Manchuria. was direct result OF the
Inflated naturalization scheme for the
