RULED BY TREATY POWERS
Shanghai Only Great City in the
World That Is Under That
Form of Control.

Shanghai is an international city
the only international city in the
world. 1t is controlled and governed
bv the treaty powers, which include
ali the principal powers that have es-
tabIished treaty relations with China,
except France, which has its own ter
ritory or concession adjoining the in
ternationaI settlement. In such
community unique solutions have to be
found for unique problems, and no
problem has been more difficult than
that of the administration Of justice.
For the foreign resident it is a sim
pIe matter, writes Nathaniel PETER in
Asia magazine. He is subject only to
the laws of his own country, because
of the privilege of extra-territorlallty
which China conceded to foreign
powers some 20 years ago, when she
was forced to concede so much else,
including parts of her territory. Thus,
for the American, there is an Ameri-
can district attorney to administer
American law, just as in New York,
Chicago, San Francisco or Joplin. AS
for the British, Russian, japanese or
Italian, even if no special court has
been established for him, there is at
least a consular court. The result is
of course that your neighbor can do
things with impunity that would net
you $25 and costs, or vice versa.

orloln Of Dutch

The word Dutch" is derived from
the German "deutsch," meaning Ger
man and the original meaning in Eng
lish was German, Teutonic, except in
local, careless or slang usage. The
German language is classified into
high and low German, the low being
spoken by the people Of the Neth6-
lands, formerly designated as the low
Dutch language. Gradually the usage
has changed until in modern times it
has reference only to the inhabitants
of the Netherlands, their language,
etc. Thus Dutch furniture signifies a
style developed in Holland in the sew
enteenth century.

Hetchy project lies in territory
Astounding in deer. When water. was
first turned into the fiume there was a
good deal of trouble with deer which
got into it and could not get out un-
aided. AS many as thirty to forty deer
have been taken out Of the flume in
a single month. To relieve this con-
dition deer ladders made Of planks
were built in the fiume line at inter-
walls. The ladders extend below the
water as well as above, so that the
deer can find footing on which to
climb out. Since the ladders were put
in there has been no further trouble
with the deer.

The Horse of Thirtx.Eiye.

Study of the relation between the to-
tai length of life and the time required
to reach maturity has brought out an
interesting comparison between men
and horses. A horse ut five years old
Is said to be. comparatively as old as a
man at twenty, and doubtless may be
expected to behave. according to
equine standards. after the manner of
the average college student following
human standards. A ten-year old
horse resembles, so far as age and ex-
perience go. a man of forty. while a
horse that has attained the ripe age of
thirty-fve is comparable with man of
ninety.-New York Evening Post.

SHAMROCK SAILORS
CHAFE At DEFEATS
Resent Bad HeImsmanship as
Challenger Prepares for Fifth
and Final Race.
BY LINCOLN COLCORD,
International News Service.

NAVESINK, HIGHLAND LIGHT, ~
J., July 24.--So keen has become the
dissatisfaction among the sailors OF
Shamrock " over losing two races
10 Resolute that there was every indi-
cation early today that the challenger
would enter the deciding contest with
the morale OF her crew badly shatter-
ed
Experts who have watched the
races declared they are not yet con-
WINGED that the Nicholson craft has
revealed all that is in her. The Brit
ish boat has been steered wretchedly
Capt. c. E. Nicholson, designer Of
the challenger, was still optimistic.
I'VE proved yesterday that we can
point as high as the Herreschof
boat" said the designer to a group OF
friends on board the houseboat Killar-
ney. "On the beat to windward we
managed to hold our own. and per-
haps gained a little"
The blunder at the start Of Fri
days races which gave Resolute the
lead was attributed to bad wind by
Captain Nicholson. In other quar-
ters. however, 1t was declared there
was no flaw in the wind and the
whole trouble came from bad helms
manship.
Members OF the crew Of Shamrock
were not backward in their criticism
GIVE us that Yankee skipper at
the wheel and we will show them a
thing or two was the expression
heard more than once.
Today's race-the vital one in de-
Gliding the fate OF the Americas Cup
lies over a windward and leeward
course, where Shamrock is again be-
ing put to the long test of beating.
At dawn terrific thunder squall
broke over Sandy Hook bay, and the
house boat in which Resolutes crew
live when not sailing in the races,
broke from her moorlngs, but was
picked up by a tugboat before she
drifted ashore. Both racers rode at
their anchors without accident.
As soon as the skies cleared both
crews we're busy about deck, shaking
out the sails after their wetting
Local fishermen said the wind would
continue strong from the same quar-
ter all day long.

RATE
EXTENSION URGED
Admiral Benson Will Certify
Need of Continuing Rules
Suspension Until Jan. !.

The Shipping Board has decided to
certify to the Interstate Commerce
Commission the desirability OF ex-
tending until January ], 1921. the
period OF suspension OF the provisions
Of section IS OF the merchant marine
act which prevents American rail-
roads from making preferential rail
rates for commodities in import ana
export. except when moved in Amert-
can ships. Chairman Benson an
nounced today.
In making the announcement Ad-
miral Benson said: The section OF
the act il in the interest of Amer
ican commerce and shipping. Con-
gress had in view that the move
ment of our commerce to and from
any foreign port, or port in a de-
pendency or possession Of the United
States. should not be restricted, and
so required the Shipping Board to
certify to the Interstate Commerce
Commission and authorize the Com
mission to suspend the provisions Of
the section. IL American shippin;;
facilities between such ports and the
United States were inadequate.
The board has decided that the
ninety days suspension now in effect
does not afford ample opportunity for
proper inquiry into the subject. Until
fully informed it could not make in
telligent application of the provisions
Of section %. Hence the decision to
ask for further suspension of those
provisions until January l next"
