The first diplomat to represent the
United States at foreign court was
Benjamin Franklin, who acted In Paris
as oiiical agent. of the infant re-
public In France. The crossing Of the At

Franklin had had many thrilling es-
capes from pursuing British vessels.
Franklin was given cordial recep-
tion in France, although his refusal 10

The greatest writer's and philosophers
of that golden age in France delight"
ed to honor Doctor Franklin, and even
the venerable Voltaire paid tribute to
the genius of the American. Frank
lin remained In France nine years.
At first he was merely the agent OF
"the American rebels" and had e"
official diplomatic standing. but even
In this capacity he had sufficient influ-
ence to bring about the treaty OF ALI
ance between France and the Colo
MES, which had so profound moral
effect on the Revolutionary struggle.
He raised a large amount OF money
i'm France, and after the signing or
the treaty became the first American
minister to that country.

Splendid Fossil Collection.

Smithsonian institution has been
enriched by a ton and half Of speci-
mems taken during the last summer
from the Burgess Pass fossil quarry IN
British Columbia, which was discov-
cred less than ten years ago. Inc
work was done mainly by Secretary
Wolcott of the institution, and his wife.

cally exhausting the site which mas
Welded some of the finest specimens
of middle Cambrian fossils yet dis
covered and the finest invertebrate fos-
sils vet found in any formation. Large
blocks of hard shale were first blasted
loose, than carefully split with ehlsei
and hammer to expose any fossil re-
mains between the laminae. The shaie
has preserved for some twenty million
wears animals that were as soft and
nonresistant as jellyf1sh, worms, crabs,
etc. notwithstanding all the vicissl-
tudes these rocks have since under

| ed States" says Mrs. de Veyra. II do
not mean to infer we are perfect, for
we are not. My people have most OF
the defects, | suppose, that other hu'
mans have but at the same time we
are far from the people that many
Americans have been made to believe
Not only are we q Christian people.
but our race has a history that we are
not ashamed of. Throughout the Phil
ippine Islands the people are now
working earnestly to improve them
selves and their conditions so they will
be prepared to take over their own af-
fairs. We all love America for giving
us chance to help ourselves and for
having promised us our independence,
which Is one of the dearest desires OF
the entire citizenship Of the islands"
To American women whose ideas Of
Filipinos have been founded on Sun
day supplement descriptions Of wild
tribes, Mrs. de Veyra's gentle manner
and evident culture have been a reve
lation. She is sough' by women's clubs
because of her charming manner as an
impromptu speaker on the subject
nearest her heart-the women of her
country.
At recent Washington gathering
she gave in perfect English concise
account of the work of a woman's club
in Manila which supplies milk to the
babies of the poor and trains mothers
to care for their young children. She
told of another womans club which
has branches all over the Philippine
Islands and which maintains day
nurseries for the children of the work
ing women, provides Christmas cheer
for the lepers, the insane and the con-
victs, and gathers data to influence leg
islation for the benefit of Filipino wO-
men and children.
The four little De Veyras, shown In
the picture, having attended the pub
lie schools in Manila, slipped right into
the same grades In the schools Of
Washington Even little Mary, the
baby of the family, speaks three Ian
guages--her native tongue. Spanish
and English.

APRIL
WHEN SUN BEGINS TO COOL
Humanity In Its Maturity viii In AN
Probability Be Able to Con.
serve Heat.

We can calculate the evolution of the
temperature Of the earth In the fu.
t'lre. The sun will grow smaller and
cooler. Thus in 100000 years, when
the radius OF the sun has diminished
by only one-hundredth part, our TEN.
perat,lre will be not more than 90 de-
grees G.. (7S.S degrees F.) at the equa-
tor. II will have fallen to degrees
c. Goo degrees Fly at the latitude 40
degrees. and at Paris it will be BIZ
low zero (centigrade).
Finally, in $4,000 years, when the
radius Of the sun has lost only Ave
one-hundredths of its diameter and
merely 500 degrees c. Of Its tempera.
ture. the temperature Of the equator
will have fallen to zero centigrade and
the entire earth will be frozen. Bio
logic evolution, which ascends into tn.
past for million years, may descend
into the future for an equal period OF
time
Moreover, the energy Of the sun.
whence proceeds our terrestrial en-
ergy will be then diminished by only
one-tenth. Mankind will doubtless by
that time have long been capable OF
capturing this energy directly, or
transforming 1t as the chlorophyl OF
plants so admirably does, Of making
1t serve perhaps for several million
years longer to sustain his life and
the development of his thought.

Permit us to present the De Veyra
family.
The Hon. Jaime c. de Veyra is the
Resident Commissioner from the Phil
ippine Islands to the United States and
has lust been elected to second tern
Of three years. AS Resident Commits
sioner he has a seat on the floor OF
the American Congress, the privilege
of taking part in debates, although nc

Commissioner de Veyra has an inter
esting wife and four bright Filipino
kiddies. The De Veyra family, individ
ually and collectively, constitute the
best argument as to the tact and capa
Islands have in Washington.
The commissioner is 100 per cent
Filip:no, a Visayan, and Is one OF the
foremost leaders Of the party In power
in the islands. During American occu
patton he has been successfully gov
ernor of his province, member OF the
Philippine legislature, cabinet mem
Der and executive secretary of the
islands
Like many statesmen of the Philip
pines, he was originally a newspaper
man. He was one of the founders OF
FL Nuevo Din of Cebu, the first Fill
pino paper published advocating Phil
ippine independence The paper came
under the censorship of General Nc
Intyre, and on the appearance OF the
first number the editors were left ir
the singular position of seeing every
prominent article blue penciled.
Mrs. de Veyra, like her husband Is

produced and which will demonstrate
by, easy pictorial examples some knot

straight lines and triangles, the lat
