THIRTY-ONE WEST
POINT CADETS FAIL

WEST POINT, N. Y, Jan. 13.-The
semi-annual examination at West Point
proved disastrous to thirty-one mem
bers of the largest fourth class ever
gathered together at the institution.
The class was regarded as the best pre-
pared appointees ever matriculated, as
the members not only passed in the
competitive examinations, but also
passed the regular academic examina-
tion with flying colors. The first six
months, however, under the military
discipline and class training proved too
much for the thirty. one, and they have
been ordered to their homes,

Explorers steffansson and Anderson
Find Men With Red Boards in
Victoria Land.

Tidings Of a hitherto unknown race
haze been received in dispatches from
Stefansson and Anderson. who are
conducting an expedition in the far
north.
The strange rae was located In
Victoria Land. north OF Cape Bexley.
One theory OF their origin is that
they may be descendants OF an an
Client Icelandic colony from Green
land. OF unusual interest is the fact
that the natives bear names that a
be translated into English, suggesting
that survivors Of the Franklin expedi-
ton may have lived among them
They have some Scandinavian char
acteristics and are different from any
other American aborigines. Two Of
them wore beards OF = reddish color
and all had light eyebrows. Nothing
learned from them Indicated that the

ONCE MORE WORLDS GRANARY
Turkish Government INDUCES In Am
bilious Schemes for Developments
Of M~esopotamta.

In spite OF Its external troubles, the
Turkish government Is engaged in ad
ivancing the big schemes for the de-
,velopment of Mesopotamia, which.
when completed, will result In the
transformation OF an arid desert re-
gl0n as extensive as the Nile valley
into smiling cornfields.
The sum involved IN the huge ir-
rigation works which will be neces-
sary to accomplish this transformation
Is put at some $50, O00. 900, and the
Immediate concern of the Turkish au-
thOrities is to place a contract for the
initial stage Of the schemes, which
provides for Irrigation works in con.
nection with the barrage which con-
trolls the flood water of the River Eu-
pirates. at present under construc-
ton.
Some Idea OF the vast Importance OF
these schemes may be gathered from
the fact that their accomplishment
will enable sufficient grain to be
grown to affect the wheat markets OF
the whole world. In the olden days
the whole of the Euphrates delta was
irrigated, and the luxurious growth Of
grain excited the wonder Of Greek
travellers. who visited the East. Ac-
cording to H%erodotus. the soil yielded
three hundred-fold, n there Is no
doubt that these alluvial flats were
n of the chief %granaries of the world.
The whole story OF these regions Is
q It is still the popular be-
lief that the Garden Of Eden was sit
uated here. In any event, in Chaldean
times the delta was n vast garden;
the whole plain was studded with
prosperous and populous cities. set in
the midst Of engirdEng areas Of wheat.
Indeed. 1t was from this very region
that wheat, at first found in a wild
and nncultivated state, was taken and
gradually transplanted all over the
world. y @s
