SAILOR REFUSED A THRONE
Dusky Princess Went With Offer Of
RuIership, So He Went Back
to England.

The death has occurred at the age
of ninety-three of Capt. Philip H.
Nichols of Manchester, England,
who had a long and adventurous life
on the sea.
A native of Sidmouth, Devon,
Captain Nichols became a sailor
when he was thirteen. For thirty
five years he followed his profession,
and among his ships was one of the
famous "tea clippers" which made
quick passages from London to
Hongkong before steamships became
common.
His strangest adventure was when
he was cruising in the Pacific. At
the Sulu islands he became a favor
tie with the rulers, who conferred
royal honors on him, presented him
with the sword of state and other
regalia and offered to give him an
island for himself if he would settle
there.
But the gallant captain discov-
cred that in the background was an
alliance with dusky princess. His
affections were already engaged, so
he rejected the offer and returned to
the sea.-New York Herald.

TROOPER SLIGHTLY IN ERROR
Thought and Asserted Himself to BE
Better Than Hls offieer, but
He Was Not.

Major General Sir Frederick Car
rington, who died the other day, was
in his earlier years one of the best
boxers in the British army. His prin-
cipal services to the empire were
rendered in South Africa, and it is
told that among the Bechuansland
police he was known as Fighting
Fred" because he had brought that
famous force up TO its high state Of
efficiency by thrashing every man
in it.
In this connection the story is also
told that during the Zulu war Car
rington having been placed in charge
of an irregular regiment, noticed
that one of the troopers, who prob
ably imagined that he had only a
shaw, haw" officer to deal with, de-
liberately failed to salute him.
'Why don't you salute me% re-
manded the general. Because Pm
better man than you are" was the
insolent reply. "Tndeed," said the
general, "we'l soon see about that"
and five minutes later the "better
man" was carried senseless into his
tent. And next morning the general
had the offender up before him and
gave him three days @. B. for sight
ing in camp" sentence, however,
which he promptly RENTED.

British Cows Which Eat Fish.

Dried coalfish, unsalted, is eaten by

The fish, which is of the cod type, is
considered good for cows, as it en-
ables them. 1t is stated, to yield an
ample supply of rich milk. The dried
fish is not cooked before being eaten;
1t is merely laid on stones and then
pounded with stones or hammers.

WILL EMPLOY FORTY PEOPLE
Plant to Manufacture Pulp From Flax
Straw.

straw.
The Northwestern Paper and Fiber
company, which has established a
plant in Grand Forks for the manu-
facture of pulp from flax straw, will
use a product of North Dakota that
has, in the past, been practically all
wasted. If the plans of the company
work out as they have every reason
to believe they will then a large
amount of wealth will be added to
the states assets. Government reports
show that in 1910 Gan unsatisfactory
crop year) a little over 1000, 900 tons
of flax straw were grown in North
Dakota. A market for this straw
would mean at least $4,000, 900 in the
pockets of North Dakota farmers, at
least 100000 to the railways for
transportation and at the lowest esti-
mate 100000 to the farmers
and transfers for hauling the straw
to the railways and the factories.
This is the first big industry to To-
cate in North Dakota which will use
home grown products. The company
is a South Dakota corporation, with
principal Offices in Chicago. 1t has
evolved and patented special proc
esses for the treatment of flax straw,
from which it will produce pulp which
will be sold to paper manufacturers
for their use in making the finer
grades of linen and bond writing pa
pers. The company is capitalized at
100000 and will have installed in the
beginning about $4,000 worth of ma
chinery. The plant will operate day
and night, using a total of forty pee
pie.

Secretary Bryan Wires John
son Of California,
TENSION IS NOT so GREAT
Postponement OF Action on Pending
Measures Somewhat Relieves
tie Situation.

Washington, April 2O.-Secretary
Bryan ~telegraphed to Governor John
son of California, requesting him to
withhold his signature from any anti
California Legislature which might be
in violation of treaties between the
United States and Japan.
Secretary Bryan declined to make
public the text of his telegram The
Impression prevails thai it was the
desire all around not to make public
its text in California until after it has
been presented to an executive ses-
sion of the legislature.
The postponement by the California
legislature of the alien land bills has
relieved the tension here slightly,
though every moment until the bills
are again taken up will be utilized
in exchange Of messages between
Washington and Sacramento and 9TH
err points in California where infuen-
tial officials reside who may be able
to exert some influence upon the
course of legislation at the state
capitol.
President Wilson and Secretary
Bryan make no secret of the fact that
though they are precluded from inter
fering officially they are privately ad-
dressing themselves to individuals to
get the amelioration of the features of
the pending bills offensive to the Jap
anese government.
While Mr.. Root was secretary of
state he prepared a memorandum
which related to the right of Japanese
in the United States to own land for
the use of agricultural purposes and
his opinion was adverse to the claim.
The failure of the Japanese govern
ment so far to issue a decree con
firming the treaty right of Americans
who own land in Japan also may be
an important factor in the negotia-
lions which may be expected to fol-
low the enactment of the California
legislation,
