abroad. as well as of his previous
thought here, in the preparation OF a
new Immigration bill, which he hopes
to present to the next congress. He
has made no official announcement OF
the nature of the bill, but he has talked
in public to the following effect:
"I recently told the chairman OF the

Museum, Alas! Has No Pink-F Headed Duck

They interested number of rajahs,
offered rewards of 200 rupees, or $40,
and sent squads of hunters in every
direction where pink-headed ducks
were reported. They were fooled again
and again by psuedo-pink- headed
duck, the red-crested poichard, but
bagged none with the true coral shade
Mr.. Varnay said that the quest Of the
pink-headed duck would be continued
when the expedition starts again this
fall In search of little known animals
One of these is the SchOmburgh deer,
whose horns have been brought In by
natives, but which has never been
caught or killed by whites. Another
object of the new expedition is the cap.

left footprints fifteen to eighteen
inches long but has never been seen b,

other rare specimens are to be baggeG,
it Is expected, in the course of an over
land march through country where
no white man has been before and
where no natives live. They will go
from Molumein, Burma. south through
Burma, across the Tack plateau into
Siam and along the Neping river TO
Bangkok. This takes in inaccessible
and uneXplored territory where the
wild life is practically unknown.

mems from India turned over to the
American Museum of Natural History
by II. S. Varnay Of the Varnay-Faun-
thorpe expedition.
But alas The pink-headed duck was
conspicuous by Its absence. The pink
headed duck was really the main pur-
pose of the scientists. They hunted
the pink headed duck through the jun
giles and swamps of Nepal, near the
HImalayas, with fifty elephants and
thousand men, but didn't have Il
glimpse of water fowl with a head
OF the right tint.
There are six stuffed pink-headeh
ducks in the British museum, but none
elsewhere. This expedition was
formed chiefly to provide the American
Museum of Natural History with this
distinguished fowl but the hunters
came to the conclusion that it was ex-
tinct. They swarmed through thicket
and marsh with hundreds Of tons of
pachyderms and armies of natives. ter

POLICE COURT MAY
TRY DRY VIOLATIONS
Prisoners May Not BE Con-
fined at Hard Labor, Judge
Barber Rules.

The Police Court has jurisdiction to
try violations of the national prohi-
bition law because some are mere
misdemeanors, but it may not impose
a sentence in an institution where
hard labor might lawfully be required
This is the purport of a decision OF
the District Court of Appeals rendered
today by Judge Orion NJ. Barber
sitting in the place of Justice Van
Orsdell. The court does not define
what is hard labor or say whether
the work required from prisoners at
Occoquan constitutes hard labor such
as would make an offense infamous.
Orlando L. Cleveland sought writ
of prohibition against Judge Mattingly,
then in Police Court. to prevent trial.
IF the appellant in this case" says
the opinion, had been convicted and
sentenced to imprisonment at hard
labor or sentenced to Imprisonment in
an institution where hard labor might
lawfully require he would be entitled
to release. The Police Court may try
criminal cases upon information. 1t
has no jurisdiction of capital or other
wise infamous crimes and cannot SEN
tence to a penitentiary.
1T Will be presumed that if con-
victed upon trial the Police Court
will have regard to the limitations of
its jurisdictions; that 1t will not SEN
tence appellant to Imprisonment at
hard labor, and that it will not order
the imprisonment where hard labor is
lawfully required of the prisoners
therein, because such sentence
would place the offense under the
category of Infamous crime and there
by oust the court of jurisdiction. The
appellant Is in no legal danger OF
being sentenced to hard labor. and
therefore there is no proper basis for
a writ of prohibition.
I'm the event the officials of any
Institution to which appellant law
fully might be committed attempt
to compel him to perform hard labor
in the absence of that provision in
the sentence and in the statute on
which it is based, the courts may
then be open to him for such relief
as the law grants" Attorney T.
Morris Wampler. representing Cleve-
land, will attempt to take the case

JUSSERAND WOULD

The ambassador painted a graphic
France to occupy the Ruhr. He told
how. to date, Germany had paid her
absolutely nothing in the way of
reparations for the colossal devasta-
ton wrought by the German armies
Such funds as Germany had turned
over were merely on account Of the
French army of occupation on the
Rhine.
In like manner Bismarck required
payment for the German armies
which occupied twenty-one depart
ments of France. pending payment of

NJ Jusserand declared that the meas

were gentle" He said: LAS soon as
we saw there was no possibility of
making our enemies understand any
thing but the reason they once ap-
piled to US, namely, force, we had no
choice but to have recourse to force
We did it very gently-far differently,
we may be sure, from what would
have occurred if the case had been
reversed"
The ambassador insisted France has
no motive in occupying German ter
ritory but to secure what is legally
and morally coming to her The
French occupation was territoriaIly

The resolution calls upon the COM

| President to issue the executive order
dismissing these civil service en-
i ployes without giving them an op-
portunity to be heard and also his
right to appoint their successors.
The preamble asserts that the sue
cessors had a hand in bringing about
the dismissal. 1t also suggests that
the personal qualifications of the dis
missed employees and of their sue
cessors be looked into, and that the
entire matter be given to the public
The preamble declares that already
an investigation has been made
through government agencies which
has exonerated the dismissed en-
ployes.

Commissioners First Must

The District Commissioners must

The District Court of Appeals so held

oers OF the local appellate tribunal.

1T may be suggested" says Justice
Van Orsdel in concluding his opinion,
that the Commissioners have a
speedy and inexpensive remedy in
cases of this sort by resort to Con-
gress for specific directions
The injunction was granted some
time ago. and the District Commits

pcdi. ldtcT tnSy asked the DlStrlcl
Supreme Court to grant a bill of re-
views, claiming an error of law ap-
parent on the face of the injunction
decree. Attorneys Darr. Whiteford &
Darr, for the citizens, opposed the re-
view. and Justice Bailey declined to
rehear the case.
The court finds that the case might
be an appropriate one for bill of re-
view if the alleged error really exist
ed. 1t. however. reviews the situation
at length, and holds that the limita-
tion on the discretion OF the Commits
sioners placed by the lower court was
proper and not an error Of law.
Uses Specified.
The uses of the site have been
specifically provided by Congress. the
court points out. first for the tubercu-
lar hospital and then for the Junior
high school, and it's designation for
any other use must come from Con-
gress by express direction.
THE Commissioners" declares the
court, ARE creatures of statute. They
