EX-GOV. BALDWIN'S
 VIEWS ON APPAM
Recalls Problem Analogous to British Liners Case During the Adminis-
 tratiOn of President Washington.

New Haven, Feb. 3-That @ prob lem analogous to the appearance of the Appam in Hampton Roads oc- cured during the administration of President Washington, and nearly in volved the United States in war with France, is recalled by ex-Gover- nor Simeon E. Baldwin. in a state ment on the question now occupy ing the attention of the state depart ment at Washington, raised by her entry into the port of Norfolk of the British steamer as a German prize.
 Former Governor Baldwin says:--
 The entry of the Appam into an Amerlcan port presents a difficult question in international law. She has come in to seek what is com- monty called an asylum and as we are at peace with Germany, if she were regular German man of war sailing from a German port there would be no question of her status. Apparently however, she is an Eng hsh merchant ship, to which Germany has no other title than that of cap- ture and possession. She has never been adjudicated a prize by a legi- innate prize court. Our prize courts here would have no jurisdiction to adjudge her to be a prize Some nations refuse an asylum under such circumstances.
 "The matter is discussed in Calvo's work on international law theoretia al and practical. He states as a principle generally accepted where a belliger- ent brings prize into a neutral port it cannot be sold without a j1dgment from a prize court and the authoriza- ton of the neutral sovereign but he says this rule is differently interpre- ted in different states and while some states refuse an asylum altogether to prizes made by belligerents, others accord it without reserve and put no obstacle in the way of a sale.
 Wheaton in his work favors a iib- eral construction of the right of asy- lum. An analogous question to somo of those raised by the appearance of the Appam in our water engaged the attention of the United States during the administration of President Wash ington and nearly involved us in war with France"

I'm so glad I came back in time for the winter exhibit at the Academy Marjorie ana I stopped in this after noon. Everyone was there and, of course, the pictures were about the same as usual. I would like to know who most distinguished-lo ooking wo- man was! She wore a really stunning coat of dull grey glove-skin cloth. The upper part of the coat was al- most tight-fitting, ending in two points in the back, under which was shirred on a full skirt effect, making it look quite old-fashioned. The slightly-full sleeves ended in a far ing cuff over the hand, and the high standing collar came down in a point on the back. It was certainly very good looking.

FOO CITIZEN RIFLE
 CLUBS IN COUNTRY
Part Of Proposed Program for
 National Defense

Washington, D. C., Feb. 3-Re- ports reaching here from all parts of E4e scountry show an awakened in- terest in rifle practice among civilians as part of the program of nation al defense. Under a law passed by congress two years ago ten or more civilians in any locality can organize rifle club under War Department rules and on affiliation with the Ma tlonal Rifle association of America, which co-operates with the govern lnent in promoting rifle training, re- ceive a free issue of rifles and ammu- milton at the ratio of one rifle for each five club members and 129 rounds of ammunition per member per year. At present there are about TOO such rifle clubs organized in practically every state, and inquiries reach Washington by the dozens daily for information as to organizing new clubs.
 The National Rifle association is being every effort to increase the number of clubs in the country and offers every encouragement for their formation. The organization of these clubs is regarded as a step in the direction of national defense.
 It is to be hoped that quite a number of rifle clubs may be repre- sented by teams at the National Inended by the National Board for Promotion of Rifle Practice for Jack sonville, Florida, beginning October 20 next. Secretary of War Garrison has not yet acted on the matter but
