JEWISH NATIONAL FUND.

The well-known colonial expert, DR..
E, E. Soskin, has been entrusted with
the management Of the Palestine De-
partment Of the Head Office Of the
Jewish National Fund. DR.. Soskin
has worked for some years in Pales-
tine at Chedrah, took part in the e.
Arisch Expedition sent by Herzl, and
was a member Of the Palestine Com.
mission appointed in 1908. The ex-
perience he has had since then in va
rious overseas countries has made
him an enthusiastic champion Of the
fundamental idea Of the ]. N. F.-the
collective ownership Of land. DR.. Sos
kin is especially in favor Of settle
ment on small areas Of irrigable land,
about which he has written a PAM
phlct, soon to be published.

Taking advantage Of the enforced
idleness of the horses, because the
farming this year was not very sue
cessful, farmers Of Hedera plowed up
fresh land on which they intend to
plant olives, almonds and wines. At
the time of the crisis in the wine sell
ing trade thirteen years ago, many
vines were uprooted there but since
Hedera has become a station on the
Egyptian "ailway, it is expected that
its table grapes will find a place on
the market.

THE WISH ONITOR

Owing to the difficulties Of trans
portation, costs are abnormally great
this year. Petach Tikvah has been
particularly hard hit in it's exporta-
ton of oranges. The packing of oran-
ges has eased the labor situation ire
mendously. An agricultural commit
tee has been elected to handle the
problem.

Dr. Weizmann was given a most
cordial reception at Rosh Pinah when
he visited there recently. He was met
by very large assembly and welcom-
ed by songs and cries Of "Long Live
Weizmann." An elder Of the colony
spoke Of DR.. Weizmann's great work
and a memorandum was submitted to
him reporting on the condition Of the
colonies in upper Galilee. DIR. Weiz-
mann explained the existing political
situation and declared that the work
Of building up the colonies would be
taken up Immediately. DR.. Weizmann's
cordial attitude produced an excellent
impression on the gathering.
An indemnity of L. 46 has been
awarded to the Jewish colony "Gevath
SAUL Of Palestine, by the British

at the hands Of the English Army dur
ing the battle Of Jerusalem.

Mr., Ireland, who is only Sc years old,

in New York, said the two would spend a

Mrs. Ireland was Mary Caroline Pack

Although the Pope omitted to put
LenIne on the schedule of those TO be
solcmnlv canonizcd in May, the workers
Of Trieste have already made him a
saint For many weeks past his picture
has hung on factory walls instead of the
customary little statues and pictures OF
the Virgin, SAINT Francis or some other
popular name in the holy calendar.
The big captains Of industry thought
the new saint influence was bad and
last night they had bis picture removed
after working hours. When the men
trooped TO work this morning they found
their new saint had vanished and de-
tnanded that he bc put back at once. As
the employers refused. they struck and
swore they would not 60 back until Saint
Lenne's features had been restored to
the walls of their shops
The manufacturers held a conference
and came te the conclusion that il would
bc better to give in. So once more

Ex-KAISER VERY RICH.
Fugitive's Estate May Reach Total OF
Billion Marks.

Berlin, Feb 13.-The value Of the es-
tates which belonged to the former Ger
man emperor and his family may reach
1000, 600 900 marks. In attempting to
fix the compensation to Count Hohen-
zollern for that part Of his private property
taken over by the state, the authorities
have experienced difficulty in deciding
what part belonged to the. crown and how
much was strictly private.
The difficulty arose in part from the
fact that the appraisers have had to in
vcntory properties which have been ac-
cumulating for five centuries
The settlement will be dictated, it is
stated, by desire to offer To the Hohen-
zollerns generous adjustment. Their
acquiescence is said to have been obtained
to the bill in the Prussian Diet 10 pay the
former emperor 10O,OO0,OOO marks for
property taken and permit him TO retain
