The success of the Royal Aero Clubs
annual Aerial Derby, to be held next
saturday, has already been assured.
II is probable that more than twenty
machines will start in the race, cover
ing double circuit of London, a total
distance Of 200 miles. 1t is expected
that the winner will exceed the speed
or l53.45 miles an hour, attained by F.
c. Courtney, the winner of last years
race.
Among those who have already entered
the race is Sadi Lecointe with a Nietr-
port. the holder of the worlds speed rec
ord OF 313.043 kilometers (more than
l95 miles) an hour. The entries range
from Sadi Lecointe with a Nieuport-
Delage. 300 horse power, Hispano-Suiza
and an Avrolion $50 horse power
Napier engine, to Capt. Tully and
Lieut. e. Hinkler with Avrobabys using

The Air Ministry has agreed to allow
service pilots to enter the contest. but
they must furnish their own machines.
The start and finish will be at Hendon.
There will be both scratch and handicap
races. The planes will start at intervals
according to their handicap and the first
past the post will win the handicap.
while the best time will win the scratch
race.
The space for spectators at Hendon
has been enlarged and arrangements
have been made for a paddock where the
public will be able to see the machines
and the pilots at close range There was
trouble last year when bookmakers dis
appeared at critical moment, but pre-
cautions have been taken against any
such occurrence. The price of admission
will not be raised as 1t is felt that in the
interest of aviation II is better to charge
pre-war prices and thereby encourage a
large attendance.
On the same day Oxford and Cam
bridge will meet in their first aerial
race. Six men from each university will
be provided by the Royal Aero Club with
planes for fifty mile, race from Hen
don. All of the college contestants will
be chosen from among aviators who
have flown for more than 1000 hours.

Once more the tradition that Eng.
land and America are the ten lost
tribes of Israel, the British throne the
throne Of David. and that the two ma
tions shall dominate the world has
been revived with the meeting of the
British-Israel Congress this week. It's
activities have more than once aroused
to fury such and-Semitic organs as
the Morning Post and have revived
tales that Semitic blood entered the
royal house through Prince Albert,
Queen victoria's consort.
This year 1t was stated that the Prin-
cess Alice, Countess of Athlone. the
Kings aunt, would be unable to attend,
although she is a patron of the fedora
ton. Lord Gisborough presided at the
meetings on King Georges behalf at the
2. M. c. A. buildings. and the following
address was sent to the King
Members and delegates of the British
Israel Congress, world federation rep
resenting all parts of the British En-
upon the throne Of David. present their
humble duty, and assure your Majesty
Of their answering loyalty to your
Majesty's throne and person."
This year Lord Gisborough included
America as an "ipso facto member" with
Great Britain in the federation. He de-
clared that the present position of Amer
lea and the British Empire In national,
moral, religious and financial spheres ac-
cords closely with the covenant of Abra-
ham and the prophecies promising that
the throne of David should be established
forever He quoted the Bible as saying
that the lost ten tribes would command
the gateways OF the sea, as America and
England do now. and said it was further
decreed that the tribes of Israel would
lend to all and borrow from none.
1T needs little examination" he said,
ito show that the Anglo Saxon race; In
the greatest war In history, practically
sustained In food. money and munitions
every belligerent on the side of the
Allies" He characterized the League OF
Nations as ridiculous and said that the
real league which would control the
world would be Anglo-American.

A veritable invasion of divorce seekers
from the United States is arousing alarm
in French legal and judicial circles and.
unless IL ceases. the Government will be
asked to revise the divorce laws, making
1t no longer possible to obtain a decree
on the grounds of moral cruelty which
has been interpreted as embracing even
the slightest difference In temperament
The Judges have not yet protested, but
individual comments are frequent In the
Chamber to the effect that American
applications for divorce are growing at
an unprecedented rate. One American
lawyer is reported 10 have filed more

For the present the system will only

accident. AS the efficiency OF the sys-

long range despatching control.
Other French railways are watching
the experiment with interest. as 1t is
expected to make obsolete all block sys-

at least rs per cent.
Meanwhile NJ. Branly is working
quietly on various wireless inventions,
which have been delayed by the war
and through lack of funds. 1t is more
than likely that the French Govern
ment will advance 100000 francs this
year to enable him to continue his

A wave Of propaganda in favor of
autosuggestion in curing diseases of
all kinds, which dominated the dis
cussions of medical societies in the
United States and England ten years
ago. has struck France with full force.
Bordering upon ideas promulgated
by Christian Scientists but without
any religious tinge. numerous French
investigators are telling the public
that all that is necessary to maintain
a perfectly healthy state is to keep
the mind free of all cares-even
forcing this attitude If necessary.
For instance. Nancy has just produced
an exceptional optimist. whose credo is
to repeat forty times daily the phrase,
II never felt better in all my life. all
things considered" Presto Ills of the
flesh and spirit disappear Immediately,
never to return.

FAMOUS EMERALDS

Gem collectors are still regretting the
fact that by an act of the Government
of India two famous emeralds rich in
history were not included in the recent
sale by Christie's of the jewel collection
of the late Herbert Maxwell Stuart.
The emerads originally were in the royal
treasure at Lahore, together with the
great Koh-i-noor diamond now in the
British imperial regalia when the Pun
jab was annexed in 1S49
These emeralds, each carved from a
single stone, represented a bow ring
and cup, and were made for the EN-
peror Shah Jehan. The Governor Cen
eral at the period of annexation was
permitted to purchase these curious
stones.
They were carried off by Nadir Shah
after the sack of Delhi in 1879. In
1913 they were restored to India by the
fugitive Shah, Sujah, surrendering them
to Ranjit Sing at Lahore. They were
found there with the Koh-i-noor on the
termination of the second Sikh war in
1s49 and purchased by Lord Dalhousie.
then Governor General The bow ring
was used by the Great Mogul to pro-
tect the joint and ball of his left thumb
when the drawn bow string was re-
leased The cup, it is believed. was
used as patch box by one of his fair
ladies.
The emeralds were on loan exhibition
at the Victoria and Albert Museum when
the war broke out and with other
treasures were buried as a safeguard
against unlocked for eventualities. Af-
ter the war the family to which they
belonged found 1t necessary to dispose
of these jewels and arrangements were
made for their sale at Christie's. but
the Indian Government heard about 1t
and decided that the Jewels rightly be-
longed to that country and began TO
negotiate for their purchase.
The offer which was made was ac-
ceptable to Christies client and before
longs the historic Jewels will be back In
their old home. much to the regret of
wealthy collectors who had had their
eyes on them for some time past.
