Wm. H. Galvani Of Portland, who
has four brothers in the Russian cam
paign, and was himself born in Rus
sin, was the principal speaker at the
Unitarian church Sunday evening in
the interest Of the international peace
movement The musical numbers were
supplied by Mr. Orterman accompanied
by Lowell viii on the piano. He rem
dercd three baritone solos in very
acceptable manner, singing Mother
Machree as an encore The lecturer
was ruthless in placing the principal
blame of the European war on Russia,
his native country. He advocated the
peace Of the world along the well
known lines Of tho American Peace
Society, making leaning money, supply
ing arms and munitions Of war, contra
band. He would stop the lobbyists foi
gunmakers, powder makers, battleshir
builders and inventors Of deadly and
destructive missiles, by having the
government take over that industry
and forbid manufacture and sale of
war implements by private capital
which be says has kept tho world At
war for thirteen years out of fourteen
during the past three thousand years
This morning he addressed the az
scmbly Of six hundred students at the
Salem high school His lecture wa'
very well received.

Washington, April 20.-An ancient

some Europekn monastery in the lam
guage that Edam and Eve spoke, is
a curious "4hd' that has just been
made by the Heitmuller Art COM

Although verygancient the volume
is in perfect condition, and the COLI
oring of the beautifully illuminated
pages is fresh and brilliant. The
weird characters are done in black
ink with mechanical precision, The
letters are large and bold.
The manuscript is written i In
Basque, a ansuage still lextaht IN the
Pyrenes. andE,believed by scholars to
have been the first tongue the
tongue of Adam and Eve. The native
name for the language is Eskuara,

(By Associated Press.)

New York, April 21.--Mrs. John
Jacob Astor soon will make her first
accounting to the surrogate's court Of
her guardianship of her son, John
Jacob Astor. She was appointed Nov.
s, 1912, when 1t was provided that
for three-year period she should re-
ceiye $4,000 annually for the babys
care. From the end Of that period
she purposes that his maintenance and
education shall be betrayed from her
own income, SO that his fortune may
be as great as possible when he comes
into its possession in 1888.
Former Justice Henry A. Glider
sleeve, who was Mrs. Astor's guar
dian in her minority and is now her
attorney, would not say when the ac-
counting would be made It is under
stood that 1t is to be handed in at
this time because the fiscal year, SO
to speak, Of the Astor estate has been
made to end with April.
Created $3,000,oo Trust.
Col. Astor, who lost his life in the
sinking of the Titanic, died April 15,
1912--three years ago. Nicholas
Biddle, Douglas Robinson, James
Roosevelt and Vincent Astor made
their first accounting as executors
April 2S last
Col. Astor's will created trust OIL
SO, 100000 "for the benefit of each
child who shall survive the testator
othag thar. his son. William Vincent
Astor, and his daughter, Ava Alice
MurieI Astor.',
Estate Grows Rapidly.
The amount actually set aside for
the baby, as it was appraised for tax
ation by sthe state was $2.922,672.
How rapidly it may be expected to
grow is to be inferred from the fact
the appraisal was made the
Sc, 900, 900 trust created for Mrs. Astor
had. increased to S6,292,019, exclusive,
of property valued at. s1,4O1.S77 con-
veyed to her under ante-nuptial agree
4A
1t has been estimated that by the
time John Jacob Astor has attained
his majority his round $3,000,000 will
have increased to at least $6,500,000 at
no higher interest than A per cent
compounded. Those familiar with the
character of Astor holdings say that
$40, 100000 may prove to be not far
out of the way.
Watches His Wealth Grow.
This Is Mrs. Astor's purpose in as
suming the expenses Of her sons
maintenance from this time on. She
has not lived ostentatiously, and her
share in her husbands S estate is good
deal larger than has been popularity
supposed. With the official computa-
|tion of her life interest in the house
at No. $40 Fifth avenue included, she
received $1O,953, $50, in addition to a
cash bequest Of 100000 and iewelry
valued at about as much more.
Mrs. Astor and her son will spend

When the days are growing shorter,
Growing shorter, brlsker. cooler,
Then ] watch the wooded hillsides
For their change from green to scarlet
From their summer hues to autumn.
Soon ! see some scarlet patches
Where tho maple leaves are turning
From their green to autumn coiors.
Then they lengthen, then they widen,
Spread about in all directions,
TIL with red the hill Is covered,
Covered is tho wooded hillside.
But their splendor does not last long,
Soon the piercing wind Of winter
Tears tho scarlet leaves assunder,
Whirls them northward, whirls Their
southwark.
Whirls them eastward. whirls Their
westward,
TIL the trees are all left naked,
Victims to the winds of winter;
To tho icy blasts and snow storms.
Not leaf Is left to shield them:
Not leaflet to protect them.
