Fortune in Waste Paper Basket.

The DAYS when poor men may pros
pect for gold are pretty well past, but
it seems as though a substitute, per-
haps less picturesque and exciting,
offers itself in the waste paper baskets
of business corporations.
Not very long ago the Hemingway
Paper Stock company purchased from
the banking firm of Townsend, Whelen
& Co., in Philadelphia, a batch or old
correspondence and papers, to be used
as paper pulp. The price paid was $40.
An employee of the purchasing firm
began going over the documents and
letters and discovered great number
of old. foreign stamps. He reported the
matter to his employers and they or
dered him to go through the whole lot
and pick out every stamp that seemed
unusual. A vast number were col
lected and when shown to A. f. Her.
kels, president of the Philadelphia
Stamp club, he appraised their value
at over SIS, 900, thus giving the firm
profit of more than thousand dollars
on each dollar of their purchase.

LEADERS OF IRISH
REVOLT ARE EXECUTED
Face Firing Squad-Many Others
to Follow.

London, May 5.-Four heads of the
Republic of Ireland" including Pro
visionaI President" Patrick H. Pearse,
were tried by court-martial and exc
cuted on Wednesday. Their trials
were swift and secret.
The three others executed were
James Connolly, "commandant gener-
al of the Irish republican army;
Thomas J. Clarke and Thomas Mac
Donagh. All four were signatories OF
the republican proclamation issued at
the outset of the uprising in Dublin.
Three other signers of the proclama-
ton were convicted and sentenced to
three years Imprisonment.
Premier Asquith announced in par
lament that Sir Roger Easement
would be tried with the utmost expe-
dition.
The trials and executions became
known to the public through an an
nouncement in the commons by Pre-
mier Asquith. At the same time there
was also made public an official dis
patch from Dublin telling of the pro-
gram for the trial there Of the lesser
rebels captured. They will be tried
by field general court-martial under
the defense of the realm act.
Pearse was one of the best known
of the Irish intellectuals. His father
was English, but his mother Irish. He
was the headmaster of st. Edna's Sec
ondary school, which he started for
Irish boys to train them to seek the
best in Celtic traditions. He was born
in Dublin 35 years ago and was I'M
married.
The most notable of the number aft
err Pearse and Connolly is Thomas
MacDonagh, who is called the poet of
rebellion.

TEUTONS cE|zEDO ON
U. S. SHIP FREED
British Release Prisoners Taken
From Steamer China.
FORMAL ANSWER DUE SOON
Wrongful Action to Be Admitted in
This Particular Case-Charged
Prisoners Plotted Against
English Government.

London, May S.-The British gov
eminent has decided to release i'm
mediately the 3S Germans and Aus
TRANS who were taken from the Amer
lean steamship China
The action of the British authorities
in ordering the release of the seized
passengers on the China was not UNI
expected, as it was known that the
last American demand declined to adj
nit any form of legality in the reasons
given by the foreign Office for their de-
tention.
The formal document in reply to the
final American notes on the subject is
not yet in readiness, but according to
Lord Robert Cecil, minister of war,
it will be carefully framed so as not to
admit the general right of belligerents
to enjoy the protection Of a neutral
flag.
In the present case, Great Britain
admits itself in the wrong in regard to
the facts outlined in the American re-
monstrance, but the reply will be
couched in such terms that no general
precedent is established, and British
doctrines in regard to the seizure OF
individuals of hostile nationality on
board neutral ships will be safe
guarded
The state department at Washing
ton has contended that the facts in
the case are similar to those OF the
famous Trent affair, but while 1t is
not known what attitude the British
reply will adopt toward this argument,
Lord Robert Cecil gives it as his per-
sonal opinion that the two cases pre-
sent wide differences.
The prisoners are held at some
place in the Orient.
The Germans and Austrians were
removed from the China by the Brit
ish auxiliary cruiser Laurentic Feb
ruary 10, while the China was en- route
from Shanghai to San Francisco. The
United States requested Great Britain
to release these men and, being met
with a declination, sent second
note.
The British authorities charged
that the SO men were concerned IN
a plot for a revolution in India.

Washington, May 6.-President Will

agreement between this country and

1 have examined, with the secre-
tary of war, the report made by
Gen. Hugh l.. Scott of the conference
between him and General Obregon,
secretary Of war of the republic of
Mexico.
The report includes a tentative
agreement covering the future apera-
tfons of both the American and Mexi-
can military forces and evidences cor
dial cooperation between the two gov
ernments in their common purpose.
AS this agreement is being sub
mitted to the de facto government
of Mexico, it would not be proper for
me TO permit it's publication until that
government has had an opportunity
to examine and consider it's provi-
sions.
The text of the proposed agreement
will be given out Immediately upon

In general, l may say that it provides
a basis of cooperation which prom
ises to prevent misunderstanding and
strengthens the cordial relations of
the two republics"

PatchouIi for Moth Prevention.

The fragrant dried roots of the
patchouli, reports Special Agent Gar
rard Harris, are held in great esteem
in Porto Rico and it is the general be-
lief in the island that when placed
among clothing and in closets they are
sure preventive of moths. In the
earlier days of the century the per-
fume of patchouli was in great favor.
1t is believed that, If the properties
Of patchouli were more generally
known, there would be demand for
it in the United States in preference
to moth balls. 1t should have as much
vogue as lavender for putting between
sheets and placing among garments;
and if it were manufactured or
shredded into a finer substance and
sold in small bags, it would be a de-
cided novelty that undoubtedly would
prove popular. Great quantities of il
grow wild in Porto Rico, and demand
for it from the United States would
afford employment to many Of the poor
country people. In Porto Rico natives
bring the patchouli to town and sell it
In small bundles that retail at two to
five cents.
