ISLE OF WIGHT DISEASE
DEClMATES ENGLISH BEES
Ten Million of Dutch Variety
Believed To Be Immune,
Imported from Amsterdam.

tFrom The Tribune Correspondent
London. MAY In the hope OF check
ing the ravages Of what is known as the
Isle of Wight disease. which has devas-
tated English hives in many parts of the
country. ten million Dutch tees have ar
rived from Amsterdam on board the
steamer Zaanstrom. These bees are
the last hope of English beekeepers, and
as they are supposed to he immune II
is expected they will do much good.
The ten million bees from the hold of
the Zaanstrom were carried in three hun
bred skeps. thirteen boxes and six hives.
The skeps were closed on the bottom with
sacking. In which holes had worn here
and there in the course of the voyage.
Through these holes several bees escaped
and flew gally around the wharf when
the ship arrived, buzzins around the
astonished dock hands and causing some
thing approaching a panic. one new
straight into laborer's car, whence IT
was deity removed by an expert who
transfxed il with a needle with which he
was mendng the sackine
For some time the onlookers were kept
constantly on the alert, but In time the
bees seemed to decide that everybody was
friendly and modified their fierce attitude
even settling on the workmen's bare arms
and walking about on them In a most
confiding manner. The boxes ana skeps
were loaded into railway trucks and taken
down TO Bures. in Suffolk. where the bee
farm of Mr.. Mason, well known expert
is situated.

ENGLAND GUARDS
MANY REQUESTS
Public Trustee Watches
Over S551 $4,000 Left
by Wills.

London. May 2-Remarkable testimony
to the popularity Of the recently estab-
lished office Of Public Trustee is given In
the sixth annual report OF c. j. Stewart.
showing that persons by express stipula-
ton in their wills have selected his office
to administer estates whose value is over
half a billion dollars-S55l 5000, to be
exact. Some six thousand trusts, amount
ing to more than s2JOOoO,Ooo, have been
and are being administered
This means that the wrecking OF pri-
vate fortunes by dishonest trustees Is
virtually a thing of the past in England
Ten years ago il was a frequent thing
for trusted family lawyer to make of
with the money that had been left TO his
clients. often widows and orphans. To-
day the administration Of private estates
is almost wholly in the hands Of the
Public Trustee. behind whom the govern
ment stands responsible for the funds in
trusted to his care.
The success OF this office, established
only six years ago, has exceeded the ex-
pectations even Of its promoters II start
ed business with four assistants. and now
requires a staff Of 400. The office can act
as trustee Of requests or executor OF
Wills In their entirety. as administrator
Of marriage settlements. general custo-
dian of funds and guardian Of children
Mr.. Stewart now acts as parent Of 50
children, so far as the care and dis
bLrsement Of their money is concerned
The largest estate which the office is
called upon 10 handle was 10000 an.
the smallest SO. The average value o
the estates dealt with. however, is abou
$40 600. showing that well-to-do persons
are its patrons more generally than th'
very wealthy or very poor
People are beginning TO realize tina
when trust funds are placed in private
hands there is always risk of loss through
fraud. incompetence or neglect. With I
government office like that OF Public Trus
tee. the possibility OF loss through specu'
lations is done away with. The trustee car
invest in approved securities only. Ana
even at the worst, il investments turn out
badly there is no risk Of the loss OF the
principal. because the government is re-
spOnsibe for that.

a participant in outdoor sports. He has
lust taken up polo, and during the re-
cent holidays at Windsor with his
brother. Prince Albert. he was up bright
and early each morning for an hour
practice at the game. The heir 10 the
throne. while he has never had serious
illness and in fact generally enjoys
good health. is not robust which prob
ably accounts for the fact that he
spends as much time as possible in the
open air.
Like all the members Of the royal
family. the Prince is perfectly at home

and at oxford took up motoring, foot
bah and 'cross-country running Dur
ing his visit TO Norway he tried his

The English press makes the most OF
his accomplishments in this field, and
