bly, Switzerland. in the Scandinavian
Kingdoms and in Holland. Syndicates
are already in existence there which
profess to be endeavoring to raise
money for ruined France, Belgium
and Russian mobiles by the sale Of such
art treasures as they have been able to
save from the wreckage of their prop
erty.
Appeals Have Come Here,
Appeals couched in this sense AL
ready have been sent to American
buyers. But the art treasures of
which these syndicates have the dis
posal are nothing more nor less than
the loot carried of by the Huns in
their invasionS OF the Entente coun-
tries and which they are now seeking
to sell. and thus. as they believe, place
them beyond the reach OF any demand
for restitution.
Any purchase by American coliec-
tors of these art treasures thus av-
quired will be risky proceeding, for
in each case the title will be tainted.
and since not long ago the University
OF Edinburgh was obliged by a decision
Of the law Of Great Britain, based upon
both Scotch, English and, continental
European precedent. to restore to the
royal burg OF Dumbarton the charter
granted to 1t in 1909. by Mary Queen
of Scots son, King James. and which
had been preserved for three centuries
in the library of the university. there
Is no reason why any American col.
lector who acquires treasures OF art
or literature which have formed the
part of Hun plumber may not be called
upon TO make restitution.

~ yes, Ice is going TO cost more
l this year, in fact we are au-
thoritatively informed that the
Wholesale price ton is TO be
Sc against a maximum Of $40 in
1918. This means an outlay OF some
thing like so cents a hundred pounds
TO the consumer. and hundred
pounds OF ice. as every housewife
knows, does not 20 very far in hot
weather. However. while this feature
Of tho present ice situation is bad
enough, the announcement that We
of this indispensable commodity 10
keep us cool in the months to come is
far more disquietinE.
DR.. Jonathan &. Day, Commissioner
OF Public Markets. has requested that
the public be warned OF the serious
shortage OF ice with which the city
Is threatened; and We are therefore
urged to conserve this refrigerant in
every possible way. such, for instance,
as cooling our drinks by means other
than putting chopped ice in them.
The use OF broken ice for chilling
both food and drink has always been
very popular with us; but this ex-
travagant method Is now fro~ned
upon by the commission that has
been appointed TO prevent an ice
famine in the metropolis.
Harvest n Failure.
The harvest OF the 1sls-l9ls season
was q failure on account OF the mild
ness OF the winter. AS a mater OF
fact there was less ice cut in that
period than for more than quarter
OF century. The Hudson River
yielded no crop worth considerable
and for that reason New York city and
its envlrons are going to be short. 50
far as the natural product is con-
cerned.
Normally New York city consumes
about 1000 900 tons OF ice year OF
this quantity something like one third
is natural ice brought down from tho
houses located above and below Al
hany. The towns adjacent TO the
North River also depend upon this
source for their supply and as II will
not begin to meet the demand some
thing will have to be done toward
augmenting the amount in storage

Prince Joachim, who was invaded
home from the eastern front with q
wound that prevented him from sit
ting down with any degree of comfort,
was wont after his recovery to drive
about Berlin in a Russian troika with
magnificent team of three q. Orion
horses which he proudly bqasted OF
having looted from the chateau in
Russian Poland of a great noble who 4
few years previously had been a ia
miliar figure, at Potsdam and at the
Court of Berlin.
Kaiser Demanded His share.
Nor was the Kaiser himself above
insisting upon his share OF loot. For
when he learned that the l29th Regi-
ment Of Prussian Infantry had appro-
priated a particularly beautiful silver
gilt dinner service for forty people be-
longing to King Peter OF Serbia, and
which he had been wont to use when
entertaining foreign rulers, a peremp-
tory demand was made upon the on
GERS for the immediate despatch OF the
plate in question to the Emperor a.
