IN THE DAYS NEWS
THE VIRGIN ISLAND

Just what did Uncle Sam get for the s25,O00,b00 he paid to Denmark for the Virgin Islands ?
 recent spectacular airplane flight by United States Marines from Wash ington over the large islands of the West Indies to map out an air line to these latest lands to come under the American Flag has raised the ques tion anew. An answer is given by the following bulletin issued from the Washington, D. C., headquarters of the National Geographic Society:
 The Virgin Islands are not remote from other United States soil. They are hardly more than a stones throw from Porto Rico. St. Thomas, the westernmost of the three larger Nir- gins, is only 40 miles from that island, and the presence of Culebra Island belonging to Porto Rico, midway be- tween the two, ties the new posses sions still more closely to this elder American brother by adoption. The truly beautiful view that may be had from the 1500foot peak of hilly St. Thomas includes to the vest the dim outline of the Porto Rican coast.
 ''St. John, the smallest of the three principal islands the point of view of the United States Government are | St. Thomas Harbor on which is situ- ated the principal town of the group Charlotte Amalie; and Coral Bay on
 the island of St. John. St. Thomas

AN EYE FOR FUTURE OIL.

In view of the constantly increasing uses to which oil is being put and the importance of looking well into the tu- ture concerning an adequate supply to meet the demands, it is not surprising that Secretary Hughes should have sent note of protest to the Dutch govern ment against the policy which it seems about to establish of closing the door 10 foreign participation in the develop ment of certain of the oil fields under it's control
 It is not the duty or the policy of the administration to pave the way for special interests which are concerned in any particular development, but it has reason to concern itself with insurins a sufficient supply of oil for the future that will not make this country depend ent upon other nations. And it holds 10 the policy that inasmuch as it has adhered to the open door policy regard ing it's own territory 1t should receive similar treatment from others The hope is to prevent the oil fields of the world from being monopolized

ODD INCIDENTS IN AMERICAN HISTORY
THE ENGLISH REGIc1DEs IN
AMERICA

Among the English judges who had sen fenced King Charles I to death in 1649 three of them escaped to America and settled at New Haven. They were Gems. Golf and Whalley and Col. Dixweu Whalley was descended fir n very an- cient family and was a relative of Oliver Cromwell Goffe was the son of Puri- tan divine and married daughter of WhalIey Dixwell was a wealthy coun- try gentleman of Kent and was elected a member of parliament in 1645.
 On the restoration of Charles II to the throne of his father many of the judges were arrested thirty of them were con- demned to death and ten were executed. The three above named escaped to New England. Goffe and Whalley arrived in Boston in July, 1860 and took up their residence in Cambridge Feeling inse- cure there, they removed to New Haven, where their unaffected piety won for them the confidence and esteem of the people, and particularly of the minister, MT Davenport Their apparent freedom from danger lasted but 6 few days.
 The proclamation of Charles, offering a large reward for their apprehension, and the news that pursuers were on the scent reached them at the time and they were obliged to flee. They took shelter in a rocky cavern on the top of West Rock, where they were supplied daily ] with food by their friends. They shifted their place of abode from time to time. calling each locaton "Ebenezer" and oc- casonaIIy appeared publicly in New Hay en. On one occasion they sat under the l Neck Bridge. OvcE Mill River, while their pursuers passed. and several times they came near falling into their hands. The | people generally favored their escape, and for their lives they owed much to l Mir Davenport.
 1 About the time when the pursuers were 1 expected at New Haven the Rev. Daven- port preached publicly from the text
 "Take counsel. execute judgment. make
 they shadow as the night in the midst of monday; hide the outcasts; betray not
 him that wandereth," etc. The sermon had the effect to put the whole town upor their guard and made the people resolve
 on the concealment of the "outcasts."
 The following anecdote is related O Goffe while he was ill Boston: A fencing master erected a stage and upon it h.
 walked several days defying anyone to
 combat of swords. Goffe wrapped a hug cheese in napkin for a shield and arm
 ing himself with a mop filled with dirt!
 water from the pool mounted the stag
 and accepted the challenge.
 The fencing master attempted to driv
 him off, but Goffe skilfully received tn
 thrusts of his sword into the cheese. A . the third lunge of his antagonist Golf
 held the sword fast ir his soft shiel long enough to smear the face of tn fencing master with the filthy mop. En ragged, the challenger caught up a broad
 sword, when Goffe exclaimed, with
 firm voice: Stop, sir. hitherto you see
 have only played with you and not al 3 tempted to harm you, but if you come [ t me with the broadsword, know that will certainly take your life" Goffe

MAY DAI TROUBLES.

Knowing the trouble that has been experienced and the inclination to let red activities come to the surface on May day there is no surprise to be attached to the preparations that were made in the large centers for holding in check or putting down any trouble that might arise.
 May day as it turned out developed nothing very seirous There were dem- onstrations m some cities and some ar rests were made. In Europe where the rioting is the more likely to occur there was apparently less trouble than year ago when riots in Paris resulted in the death of two and the sending of about 90 to the hospitals, while there were Italian disturbances and demonstrations in Centra Europe Radicals let it be known that they were cognizant of the day in this country chiefly in Chicago where many arrests were made. The situation in fact was quite in contrast to this year. though preparations were alike on both occasions.
 It was a case where the authorities were justified in anticipating the worst and making preparations accordingly. To
 'ANiAN found that trouble did not develop Is far better than to have made no prepara- tions for dealing with what might have proved a serious situation. Experience has taught that there cannot be a dis regard for protection measures on that day and no error of judgment Ia likely to be made by displaying lack of read mess to deal with what may develop.
 Instead of being used as 8 day foI the demonstration of the spirit of unrest May first bids fair to become a day when there will be patriotic demonstra tions throughout the country. That thi. should be true particularly in those cen ters where radicslism has its greatest i hold is not surprising. It is certainl, | time that there was an awakened inter ! eSt in that direction if for no other pur 1 pose than to offset the dangerous doc | trines that are being quietly but persist entity put forth for the breaking down i of the government
