The first of the descendants of the famous mutineers of the ship Bounty to v1sg1t England was Russell McCoy who arrived at Liverpool thirty-two years ago today. In 179O the muti- neers, ten in number headed by a r1ngleoder called Christian, with six Tahitian men and twelve women they had kidnapped, took possession of Pitcairn Island, solitary rock in the Paclhc between Australia and South America. According to one account the white men and the Tahitians war red against each other until at the end Of ten years only one man, John Adams, was left, with eight women and number of children; and from them the present inha bitants of the islands are descended. The colony was unknown until 1908, when it was discovered by the American sealing ship Topaz The first British ship ar rived in 1914. Great Britain annexed the island in 1889, and in 1856 nearly zoo of the islanders were transferred to Norfolk island, but a number of them afterwards returned to Pitcairn. Mark Twain made the Bounty mutt neers the subject of a humorous story.

Washington, April 23-Senator Cham berlain's resolution for the abrogatfon of the Hay-Pauncefote treaty, in the opinion of the State Department offic- ials, will be confronted with the com tention that neither that treaty nor the C1ayton-Buiwer treaty can be aib- rogated by the action of the United Sta tes without the consent of Great Britain.
 These treaties, the officials point out, are in the nature of civil con tracts, and where one party, the Unit ed States, for instance, has acquired a valuable consideration under their terms 1t cannot escape the liability without the full consent of the sec ond party. Diplonatica1ly and ac- cordfng to the phraseology of interna- tiona1 law the status of the United States. they hold, Is one of ''Nattona1 servitude.''

Chauncey Mitchell Depew, former United States Senator, founder and perpetual president of the Smile-alI- the-Wh1le Club, and champion catch as-catch-can afterdinner speaker of the Universe, will begin his eightieth year today. MT. Depew has lately been gal1ivanting about Europe with Mrs. Depew End, and that continent has been fairly convulsed with laugh ter at his jokes. Few public men have been so bitterly attacked as MT. Depew, but through it all he has worn the smile that won't come off. t'Ex- posures'' have no effect on the spirits of the genial Chauncey. It is with a grin that he greets any such statement as the following, from a recent mum Der of one of MT. Hearst's magazines:

 Such fnsinuations-tEey might even be called more than that-are power less to pierce the armor of optimism worn by the former Senator from New York. MT. Depew estimates that dur ing his public career he has addressed no less than 28,O0O,O00 people.
