TRAVELLERS SAY
ARCTIC Circle
WEATHER TOO HOT

STOCKHOLM, Sweden.-TrayelerS
returning from the North this summer
are complaining of the intense heat
prevailing at the southern edge of the
Arctic Circle ... -. ..:. =
Travellers to Russia, who have had
to make the. journey by rail all the
way around the Gulf of Bothnia, say
they have suffered intensely from the
heat while on the northern reaches of
their four days trip.
At Haparanada, where passengers
transfer from Sweden to Finland, the
temperatures this summer have
ranged from 10 to 20 degrees warmer
than here in Stockholm, several hun.
dred miles to the south. This differ
enee is, of course, attributed to the
longer hours of sunshine prevailing in
the North, IIaparanada being but a
short distance from the zone of mid
night sun. -..... $3.50 !.

ENFORCE QUARANTINE

LONDON, Eng.-Replying to the
proposal to enforce quarantine
against infantile paralysis on board
steamships from New York, the Local
Government Board, which has juris.
diction in such cases, has decided,
according to the morning newspapers,
that "the quarantine is absolutely
useless in respect to any acute infec.
tious disease, and attempts to enforce
it regarding pollenyelitis would be
impracticable and miscellaneous.
The Lancet, the leading medical
journal in Great Britain, calls atten-
ton to the fact that thirty-nine cases
of infantile paralysis have been re-
ported in Aberdeen, Scotland.

standpoint is being offered to ener-
gefic raisers of wild-fowl."
Roultry-raisers in western Europe
are said to have been acquainted
with the possibilities in this direc-
ton for a long time and have been
aking advantage of Them to q
marked itent. In addition to the
experience of the Europeans, the
Audubon societies have had an ex-
pert examine into the question -
where stock can be secured, what
kind of surroundings are necessary,
the construction of breeding pens,
kind of food for the fowl at various
ages and dangers to be avoided.
The demand for information on
wild-fowl raising has grown so great,
it is reported, that the National As
ISOLATION of Audubon Societies, at
1914 Broadway, New York City, has
put the results Of its study of the
question into an attractive twenty
fye-cent book which is said to be in
great demand among farmers and
poultry ralsers. ~-:-@. /

Zuyder Zee project eventuates. As d
matter OF fact, the first Zuyder Zee
reclamation bill was introduced as
long ago as 1877, and others OF sub
sequent date likewise failed to reach
the statute books. But the whole OF
national opinion now seems to be
strongly behind the scheme. More
over, Holland has plentiful supply
of money at the present time, the gold
stocks of its central bank being three
and half times as large as at the
outbreak OF war, and the wars effects.
both at home and abroad, have ac-
customed people to contemplating the
expenditure OF vast sums of money.
The Importance OF such reinforce
ment OF the country's agricultural
land in peace and war is not over
looked, nor the opening the project
will offer after the war to Dutch in
dustry and labor. The scheme has
therefore better prospects OF realiza-
ton than ever before in its long
history.

French Hotel Men Prepare
AIready for Americans

tCorrespondence Of The Associated Press)
Paris, Oct. 1.-THE reawakened en-
terprise of French hotel men is be-
ing applied to the preparation of
proper accommodations for the Amer
leans they expect to see over here as
soon as continental touring is again
possible.
American built hotels in portable
sections will be ready to shelter tour
lists on the battlefield of the Marine as
soon as the war zone is opened to
general circulation. They are to be
erected by group of French and
neutral hotel men.
A Grenoble hotel man is already me-
gotiating for a site in Verdun on
which to build new hotel as soon
as German shells get through demol-
ishing the old ones. A committee
of business men in Meaux is pushing
along different projects for the bene-
fit OF the battlefield tourists.
Signposts giving distances between
interesting points and the itinerary
tourists should follow will soon be
erected on all the fields of the seven
days fighting in that region. Com
memoratiye plates will be put up
wherever acts of heroism were ac-
eomplished, and an illustrated guide
book with maps OF the battle OF the
Marine provided for visitors, while in
formation bureaus will be organized
in each commune to facilitate visits
to interesting places,

British Want to
Learn All About
Minerals, Metals

London, Oct. GA suggestion is
being made to establish a Central
Department Of Minerals and Metals
under government auspices to collect
and impart information bearing on
the sources OF minerals and the pro-
duction OF metals, as being imper-
atively necessary in the public inter-
est. This is advanced in letter sent
to the chairman OF the Advisory
Council OF Scientific and Industrial
Research by the presidents of the In
stitution of Mining Engineers, lnsti-
tute Of Mining and Metallurgy, and
Institute OF Metals.
The letter points out that there is
at present no connecting link between
various organizations. that there is
considerable overlapping and much
waste and confusion. II properly
organized and efficiently conducted
department Of minerals and metals
had been in existence much valuable
time, many lives and vast sums OF
money would have been saved to the
nation in the conduct Of the present
war, and much OF the cost and, incon-
venience to British industries depend
ing largely for their raw material on
mineral products would have been
saved. The following are some Of
the duties suggested by the new de-
partment:
Arrangement for expediting the
completion OF mineral surveys Of the
United Kingdom and crown colonies
and other British possessions. Sys-
tematic collection and coordination
OF information bearing on the occur
renee, uses and economical value of
minerals and their products; special
attention being devoted to securing
industrial applications for newly dis

products and to finding mineral ma
terials required for new matallurgical
products or inventions. The investi-
CATION of all questions and problems
relating to the utilization of the min
eral or metallurgical resources OF the
empire. The coordination and dis
scmination OF information.

mineral resources and OF the position
OF each mineral or metal. to insure
that the mineral wealth OF the empire
Is being exploited with due regard

American Negroes
Invade Liverpool

f-orrespondence Of the Associated Press,)
Liverpool, Sept 25.-Liverpool is
becoming conscious of remarkable
growth In its black population. The
negroes are coming from the west
coast of Africa and from America. A
striking feature Of the invasion Is that
the blacks so numerous on the city
streets generally are arrayed In gar
ments OF the latest cuts and hues. The
color schemes usually are rather loud
the negroes from Africa vieing with
those from the United States in riot
OF checks, stripes. vivid neckties, lurid
hose and bright yellow shoes.
At first this invasion puzzled the
authorities here, but little investiga-
lion tended to solve at least part OF
the mystery. The bulk OF the blacks,
Il seems, have been recruited on the
west coast to work as firemen on
steamers whose white crews presum-
ably have become reduced through the
war. They are not all seafarers, how
ever, for many appear to have signed
for one trip only and have obtained
employment here in the shorthanded
factories at lucrative wages, This is
