BIRD STUDY CLUB
 HAS SESSION HERE
Field Meeting Held at Institute Satnr- day-Rare Birds Found
 in Vicinity.

John H. Sage. of Portland, Conn.,, secretary of the American Ornitholo- gists' union since the organization of that body thirty years ago and one of the foremost authorities on bird life in the United States, attended the field meeting of the Hartford Bird Study club held Saturday afternoon at the New Britain Institute.
 About forty members of the club, many of. them residents of New Brit ain, spent the afternoon studying the collection, which is an exceptionally good one. Most of the 450 speci- mems displayed were secured in Con- necticut by Eugene w. Schmidt and all were mounted by George F. Tyler, the taxidermist.
 The guides of the club Saturday were Eugene W.. Schmidt and George C. Atwell Miss Estelle M. Hart, of B Cedar street, is one of the six hon. orary members of the club The club is now the largest naturalist organiza- tion in the state, including 590 mem bers. President Lewis w. Ripley and Vice President Dr. Edwin H. Munger accompanied the club. Similar or ganizations exist in New Haven, Meri- den, Waterbury, Norwaik, Ansonia and Bridgeport.
 The Hartford club covers the ter ritory within fifteen miles of the Hartford city hall. Twenty field meetings arc held during the year and thirty meetings are held evenings at the Center church house at Hartford. The aim of the study club is the study and protection of the birds. For the purposes of education, lectures are held from time to time in the schools.

journey were another missi onary and his wife and two other American women, one of these being the sis ter of the American consul in the oth- CT large city of the province. The party started in three small boats with their baggage for their journey down the Min river to Chung-King. 1ele Min, tributary of the great Yangtse river. rises among the lofty mountains of Thibet not far away, and by the time it reaches Chengtu is still rather shallow, doubtless because so much of it is used for irrigation purposes in the intensive farming of the Chinese on the great populous Chengtu plain with it's millions of people. Pro- gress was rather slow at the start and although the district is in about the latitude of Jacksonville and New Or leans, they had to burn charcoal fires on the boats to keep warm.

POPE INTERPOLATES KAISER.

Rome Feb. 22.-Reports received by the secretary of state of the Vati- can, says the Giornale D'Italia, show that Germany, although maintaining an excellent military position, feels seriously the consequences of the war and therefore has modified materially her views on peace conditions to be imposed" The paper adds: 'The Pontiff considers that such condi- ton of affairs lends itself favorably to diplomatic steps. He is reported again to have itnerpolated Emperor William to know on what conditions Germany would be disposed to nego- tiate peace, observing that in any case the military honr of Germany is safe.'

MT. Neumann writes that owing to the war, he had been unable to se- cure definite engagement of steamer passage across the Pacific, but hoped to make the 1500 mile trip down the Yangtse river to Shanghai in time to leave there the latter part of Feb ruary, and to reach New Britain, via. San Francisco, early in April, after be- ing away since 1908. His work in Chengtu has been quite largely in connection with West China Union University, of which he is treasurer, and head of the department of econ omics and history. He plans to spend his furlough of a, year in the United States in study and further prepara- tion for his work, after which he will go back probably for another seven year period.

Because of the bands of Briganus along the river, they had soldiers on their boats, but after waiting in vain at Suifu for new ones to come, they had to push on without them. Fur ther down the river" MT. Neumann writes, "a band of robbers fired on our boats. Our boatmen, however, were pluclSy, and refused to come to shore as they were ordered to, but roWed hard to get out of range. AS soon as they got us to shore on the opposite bank we went up to the vil- lage, and shortly afterwards our es- cort from Suifu, for which we had waited, but finally had come off with out, arrived and fired on the robbers. who were getting into boats to come across. We secured a large escort of thirty men from the nearest city, and then started out early the next morn ing The robbers were on hand wait ing for us but our escort was too big for them and they had to let us go by We had no further trouble on the way to Chung-King.'

DISCUSS VOILMER BILL,
Measure Proposes to Repeal Tax or
 Mixed Flour.

Washington, Feb. 22.-The house ways and means committee had be- fore it for consideration today the Vollmer bill. proposing to repeal the tax on mixed flour.
 Supporters of the measure assert that to permit the manufacture of flour consisting of a mixture of milled wheat and milled corn would add ma terially to the country's breadstuf supply and would tend to reduce the cost of these food articles. A pro- hibitive tax was imposed on the mixed product during the Spanish American war, and it has never been reduced.
