Noted Indian Dead

Sauit Ste. Marie, Mich, April 2S.-
Peter Waiska, the last of the Wais-

Waiska, who was rs, carried with

Black Cat Causes Trouble

Miami, Fla, April ga black cat
caused abandonment one day recently
of the greyhound race meet being con-
Quoted here by the Miami Kennels
club and the dogs now are chasing a
new mechanical rabbit. A small cleo
trio trolley is laid in the center of the
course and at the beginning of a race
9 stuffed rabbit, mounted on the troll
ley, is started from the tape. The
bunny is given few yards start
and the greyhounds released, at a sig
Eal, do their utmost to catch it. A
few yards beyond the finish the rabbit
ducks into trap door while the dogs
are clocked as they cross the line.
The dogs for five weeks had chased
the rabbit when an inquiring black cat
wandered onto the course. One of the
judges to save the Kitty from rough
handling by the hounds, did 100 yards
in ten seconds flat and captured her,
The cat was released behind the grand
stand with warning and it was be-
ieved she would stay out She didn't.
The first race got under way and
the stuffed rabbit was making a
streak down the course with the grey
hounds in full tilt after it. At the
post marking a sixteenth of mile
things began to happen. The casing
of the trolley flew into the air and
bunny came to Il halt. Six grey hounds
pounced upon it.
The cat, disregarding the warning,
had wandered onto the track again
and had climbed onto rafter under
the trolley casing for a siesta. The
swiftly moving bunny struck her and
jammed the mechanism.
The management issued rain checks
to the spectators, sent for several car
penters to repair damages, raided a
taxidermist's shop for another stuffed
abbit, and the races were resumed the
next day.

Textile Industries in China

Marking, March 25.-(By MaiD.-
In line with the growth of textile
industries in China and the increasing
number of busy spindles in mills OF
the country the University of Nan.
king plans this year to continue and
to broaden the scope of it's work to
improve the quality of cotton pro.
duced by Chinese growers. This eff.
fort is receiving the liberal support
of cotton mill interests of the larger
centers, particularly Shanghai.
The University plans to carry out
two general purposes, grst to obtain
for Chinese growers an acclimatized
and improved seed supply and second
to introduced it's, use among growers
Authorities have stated that in other
countries the production of acclima.
lied cotton seed has required from
three to five years. With view to
Fastening this stage what is perhaps
the most elaborate and detailed piece
of acclimatization work ever at
tempted in the history of cotton
growing is being carried out at Nan
king.
The work was begun last year
when the seed fields not only were
severely rogued to discard all plants
not true to type, but thousands of in
dividual plants Of the Thrice and
Acala varieties were selected and
picked separately. The selecter spec
linens of seed cotton from these
plants were studied with exhaustive
detail in the laboratory where all but
a total of about 800 were discarded
These have been grown in separate
rows and picked separately for fur
ther study in field and laboratory
with further discarding of the poor
est and retaining of the best.
AS result of the first years work
it was possible to announce this
spring that this acclimatization
method can be successfully applied in
China. About third of the selected
specimens are above the standard OF
average American cotton, it is said
and a tenth are much superior 70 the
product with which the work was
started

Business Could be Done
With Russia, Provided

Constantinople, April 3O-Ameri-
can and other business men to whom
the correspondent talked during an
eight months stay just completed in
Russia declared that business could
be done with Russians provided the
Soviet government would take down
its customs barriers and permit free
trade with the outside world in the
same sense that it now permits free
trade inside Russia.
The problem which is interesting
business men all over the world
seems to hinge on the attitude of the
Communists. Up to now they have
insisted that all foreign trade must
pass through their hands. This is
partly matter of politics and part
ly matter of personal compensa-
ton. They wish to keep all the pow
er in their hands i'm order to main
tain themselves.
The Communists are in decided
dilemma. If they insist on control
ling foreign trade, they fear that
Russia is doomed. If they surrender
their power and Russia is saved,
they believe they will be slowly SHOW
ed aside.
A second condition outlined to the
correspondent by these business men
of the old regime in Russia is a quick
and absolute return to private prop
erty. There are widespread indica~
tions that, by the force of circum-
stances, private proptrty will be rec
ognized in every part of Russia. A
Moscow decree to that effect has been
expected for many months.
The question of guarantees is an
other point that is constantly raised
in connection with doing business
with Soviet Russia. Old business
men say that this is one of the
chances that foreigners must take if
they wish to do business with Rus
sia. There is no doubt at the pres
ent time that the Soviet officials are
in frame of mind to try to uphold
any guarantees they give.
The Italians in Constantinople
vered in the Black Sea trade have
been doing a certain amount Of busi-
ness every year but they find it very
difficult. One of the members of the
Italian Embassy in Constantinople
complained that whenever an Ital-
ian cargo went into Russia it al
ways meant the intervention of diplo-
matte agents backed up by warships
before the final sale. was made
Admiral Mark L. Bristol, United
claimed for years that if Americans
go boldly into Russia and into Turk
ey they will profit by their invest
ments in the end.

Decorated for Signal Service

Leesburg, Va, April 29.-The
French government has conferred
upon an American, e. B. White of
Leesburg, the order of Officer du
Merite Agrgicole, decoration in rec
ognition of signal service to agricul-
ture, but in this instance awarded
for Service rendered in the improve
ment of horses"
Mr.. White began to breed horses
20 years ago after returning on the
advice of physicians to his native
home in Virginia from St. Louis,
where he had been active on the grain
exchange. The physicians had given
up hope for his recovery, but the
outdoor work incident to his inter-
est in horse breeding aided in his re-
covery.
The particular animal which led to
the ward of the decoration is the
stallion Laet, bred by Mr.. White and
exhibited in Chicago at the last Inter
national Live Stock Show. Laet was
declared grand champion Percheron
stallion and one of his sons reserve
grand champion, giving Mr.. White a
record said to be unprecedented in the
history of the show. Mr.. White is a
member of the advisory board of the
Horse Association of America.

Life in Russia is Difficult

Moscow, April 2S.-Many of the
millions of persons hitherto fed by
the government and who are now be-
ing thrown upon their own resource 5
are finding life in Russia complcat-
ed by depreciation in the value, of
the paper ruble, growing constantly
more difficult
Only 100000 persons including
the Red army and navy, are now re.
ceiving government rations, says tn :
Moscow Pravda. Last September the
number was II 800 900.
Factory workmen. government en-
ployees and others cut off the fre =

creases supposed to be adequate -
permit them to buy their food on tn 4,
open markets. The pay fixed today
however, may be worth actually, in
purchasing power. only half as much

Prices for food and other articles ir

How Russians manage to exist
through all these difficulties is a puz-
zle to the foreigner; yet Moscow's S
population does not appear to b.
greatly underfed.
Housewives perhaps tear thei
hair when they find that varying mar

Military School Soon
To Be Abandoned

Charleston, S. c., April 29. Charles
toms historic Citadel which produced
many of the heroes of the Civil War
is about to be abandoned as a mill
tary school. The city and the state
have provided new quarters for the
college at cost of more than a
million dollars.
About the buildings which have
become known as The Citadel much
history has been wrought The
main building was used prior to 1880
as tobacco inspection warehouse
and into it rolled great hogsheads
drawn by mule, horse and OK from
interior farms. Upper stories were
added from time to time until today
the building is stalwart structure
four stories high with accommoda-
tions for 1926 cadets.
After service as a tobacco inspec-
ton warehouse the Citadel was used
for guards who patrolled the city's
magazine on the outskirts of Charles
ton, and it was during this period
that the name Citadel came into
common use in describing the build
ing. The guards were called Citadel
Guards.
In 1912 the state decided to con-
vert the Citadel into a military col
lege, and on December 20 of that
year the South Carolina military col
lege had it's genesis, the arsenal"
then at Columbia being used as a
preparatory school.
With the outbreak of the war be-
tween the states Citadel cadets join
ed the Confederate army and some
of the South's most famous soldiers
developed from among them. Citadel
men are said to have fired the first
shot of the war when the steamer
Star of the West endeavored to bring
supplies to beleaguered Fort Sum-
ter. A piece of wood from the Star
of the Vests hull was fashioned into
a star and for upwards of 80 years
a replica has adorned a gold medal
awarded at the school for efficiency
at drill.
The Citadel was occupied by feder-
al troops during reconstruction days
but war returned to the state and re-
opened as a military college in 1882
1t is located on Marion Square in the
heart of the city
