CHINESE REPUBLIC ; sBENEF|TSL|TTLEBY FOREIGN ADVISERS Yuan Sha Kai Has Drawn Them From All Coun-
 tries of World THREE AMERICANS
 LEAVE THIS MONTH Advisers Merely Desired for Show Purposes and the Course They
 Point Out Is Seldom

Picking, August S.-Aithough Dr. Frank J. Goodnow, the American whose authority on constitutional law was sought by President Yuan Shi-Kai in framing the new Chinese constitution. leaves Peking in August to became president of Johns Hopkins university, he has agreed to favor the Chinese President with further advice whenever he may ask for it. He intends to re- turn to China during the summer vaca- tion of 1915. but in the meantime he has urged Yuan to engage substitute for him In this s15,o00 post.
 Dr. Goodnow's departure, together with that of W. w Rockhill( who has already left for the United States, and II c. Adams. who is to leave as soon as he has finished some special work fin railway accounting, will rob Pres ident Yuan of the immediate counsel of three Americans. It appears that all three have been anxious to return to the United States. Dr. Goodnow has obtained his release after little over a years stay in Picking, while his con tract was for a period of three years. MT. Rockhill was urged to remain In Feking, but he accepted his recent ap- pointment to Yuan's service only upon condition that he would not have to take up his residence here. In the Uni ted States at a salary of s15,000, he .

SHIPS GRAVEYARD
 IS RICH IRON MINI: SawtOOth Reef in Lake Su- periOr Holds Bones of
 Many Ore Boats

veritable open pit iron mine of im- merse richness lies off the shores of keweenaw Point, which juts out into Lake Superior from the southern shore distance of 50 miles, says Calumet Mich, special to the New York World Sawtooth Reef, off Keweenaw Point mile, and throwing it's cruel points up from 100 fathoms of water to within 20 feet of the surface, has caught and held many ships that have lost their course in thick fogs on dark nights or have gone ashore because of devia- tions of the compass.
 The steamer George S. Baker of the Steel trust fleet. which was picked up by Sawtooth Reef during dense fog recently, went on the rocks be- cause of the compass running away The same was true in the case of the Moreland, which was destroyed on Saw tooth Reef three years ago, although the Moreland went on the rocks dur ing 8 clear. cloudless and fogless night, according to residents of Eagle river who sat on the porches of their homes and watched the big ship swing in onto the reef
 Whether it is the jettisoned cargoes of iron ore that cause this deviation of the compass cannot be said
 From the i'll fated Moreland. which was Just off Eagle river on her maiden trip nearly l2,00O tons Of ore were jettisoned A cargo of 1G.500 tons was thrown over board from the holds of the George S. Baker. half dozen other ships which have stranded along the Keeweenaw west and north shore have contributed large cargoes. The steamer Waldo gave 5000 tons of ore toward this under the lake, mine at Gull rock, 10 miles off the point A score of wooden ships which have gone down around the point in 20 years or SO have lost their cargoes there.
 It is estimated that lying loose in the waters of Superior about the shores of Keeweenaw are from 100000 to 15O,0O0 tons of perfectly good iron ore, all to be had for the taking. The copper peninsula is rusted along it's shores, from the vast ings of the jettisoned cargoes of iron ore.

How Wolves Are Framed

Wolves, writes H. Mortimer Batten in the August Wide World, are the most difficult of all animals to trap, and it is usually by working upon their uncon- easily deceived. The "cAmp-fre set is one of the best. When a man makes camp in the forest the wolves. if tbere are any near, are sure to note his where abouts. When he has gone they trot up to investigate the ground. and with due caution pick up any scraps he may have left lying about. The scamp-fire setn iss made as follows: First hollow out an oblong hole in the ground just large enough to take the trap, and perhaps five inches deep. Cover the trap with a sheet of brown paper. and over this fill the hole with damp earth Then light a fire on the top of 1t, and into the fire. as if burns low, throw few scraps of raw meat.
 Should a wolf come along to investigate the place, he is sure to scent the cooked meat and will start scratching in the ashes for 1t, thus. of course. sprnging the trap
 One of the greatest difficulties in wolf trapping is to hide the aforesaid tell-tals scents so Keen IS their sense of smell. The traps must never be handled with the naked fingers. Old gloves. soaked in oil or fat are used. and 1t is best to smoke the trap over a "smudge" f1re hefora ssts ting 1t. and then enclose 1t in a paper bag. '"PS'
 The old wolvers often used to proceed as 1onows: They would start out on their round dragging piece of carrion heht,,s their horse or cart by means of a lon . rope, thus leaving a trail, upon ,vhio5 they set their traps at regular intervais At night time the woives took inc tra;i up' and whichever way they followed It, they were sure to encounter one or

danger zone, and incidentally to attract the notice of the wolf Having picked up several of the baits, he has now lost sus- picion. and gulps down his dose of poson which kills him almost instantly
 The wolf trap is never fastened to a per- manent fixture, such as a tree or stake, as the captured animal Is then able to pull. and ten to one will escape. It is fastened, instead, to log or drag that the animal can pull along after him. and that hampers his progress though II does not prevent 1t. A wolf has been known to draw a heavy log, with the trap at tached for three months, during which period he travelled distance of 200 miles.

 But MT Duncans Hellenic faith has lately turned to good works. He has been in Epirus and Albania, where he organized relief work among the panic stricken and starving peasants in what seems like a very practically American Way.
 Besides teaching these Hellenes and rre-Hellenes. as he considers them, to wear Spartan dress he has raised funds. organized relief, started domes- tic industries and founded agricultural eo-operative stores He has even set tho Epirotes to rebuilding burned cities and living in them.

 Adams Completes Work
 Professor Adams who came out here for one year only. to instruct the board of communications in the unification of railway accounts. will have com rleted his work in August. It Is not be- lieved that the chinese board is yet capable of profiting greatly by his in- struction and it Is feared that they will be unable to continue the work suc- cessfully without him. But Adams wishes to return to the work from which he withdrew temporarily in the United States.
 The departure of these three Ameri- cans brings up the question as to what real service foreign advisers have been to Yuan Shi Kai. He has had them from all countries-Great Britain. France, Ger many, Russia, Denmark Sweden and Japan, on almost every subject connected with his government-on law, foreign af- l fairs, military matters. education, finance. and whenever a man might be useful but l had no particular line to recommend him, he has been made an advisor in general, 1 Most of these advisors are seldom called | upon to do any serious work.

Superintendent of
 Alaska Roads Here

John Zug. superintendent of the Alaska Road Commission arrived in Fairbanks Thursday, and when ques- toned regarding the outlook for trail construction in Alaska for the year, said that he was much disap- pointed in the fact that the govern ment had failed to increase the road appropriation to more than it was last year.
 The money appropriated for the use of the commission this year was the same as for last. $125,OOO. and with this, Mr. Zug declares, the com mission can only make repairs to the trails already built, without being able to construct new roads.
 When Lieutenant Edgerton arrives some plan will be made for the expenditure of money in the Fair. banks district. but as the last appro. priation will not be available until July, but little will be done until that time.
