ARBUTUS IS DOOMED
 UNLESS LAWS INTERVENE
"Daintiest Gem of Nature" Faces EN- tinction Unless Stringent Rules
 Arc Laid Down.

Appleton, Wis, April 11.-Trailing arbutus, sometimes idescrbed as "dain- tiest gem of nature," faces extinction in the not far distant future because of the fact that it is too eagerly sought by thousands of wild flower enthusiasts in the ekearly spring. ac- cording to Prof. Walter E. Rogers of the department Of botany, Lawrence college here.
 Prof. Rogers sees a remedy for saw ing the disappearing arbutus by the enactment of state conservation laws similar to those protecting game.
 Every spring thousands of persons search the north country for trailing arbutus and the inroads made upon the dainty flower, especially by those who make a practice of selling it in the larger cities, are becoming a men ace. according to the botanist-
 AS fair as any, in its contrast Of delicate pink and pearl with the dark emerald of its foliage, and exhaling a fragrance thought by many to be un- surpassed. this species seems destined to disappear from the state in the not far distant future," says Prof. Rogers. Tt is wild as a hawk and cannot be tanned. It already has disappeared from large sections of the country and probably 1t cannot now be saved except through the enactment Of game laws for plants similar to those We have at present for our birds"

Russia before resuming formal diplos matie relations. This possibility, how ever. is discounted in official quarters. It is taken for granted there that the attitude of Moscow has been consid- erably stiffened by British and Italian recognition, and it is believed that the Russians will refuse 10 discuss with Japan any agreement short of full recognition.
 One minor issue, however, will claim attention before the Japanese elections. This is the question of fishing rights along the coasts of Si beria, which must be tackled before the annual fisheries auctions for the coasts of the maritime province of Siberia are held in April. This ques- ton is an annually recurring one, and
 has been settled satisfactorily each year since the Bolshevik revolution in spite Of the absence of diplomatic ties. Within the last two and a half years Japan has held three confer ences with the Soviet, all ending in failure. The first was in Dairen, Manchura, in 1921, the second in Changchun in 1922 and the third last summer in Tokio, where A. A. Joffc spent several months in vain conyer- sations with the Japanese representa- tive, Toshihiko Kawakami, former minister to Poland.
 Japanese officials, In discussing the ! prospects of Russian recognition, nearly always refer to these unsuc- cessful attempts to reach an agree ment. and express doubt as to wheth- CT the attitude of Moscow has ma erially changed since Dairen.
 Besides the question of pre-revolu- tionary debts, Japan has other i'm portant issues to discuss with the So- , viet, including responsibility and in identification for the NikolaieNsk massacre of March, 1920, the possess sion oe the northern half of Saghal- fen island now held by Japanese oc- cupying troops, and concessions in Si-
 berian resources, principally mines and forests.

 Woman Dies in Poverty

Schreiberhau, Germany, April H. Death receitly brought peace to woman in the Schreiberhau hospital who was once the wife of Leopold Woelning, an Archduke of Austria, who became a variety performer after royalty crashed in that country. Marie Ritter was the woman's maiden name. She was the daughter of a peasant and was serving as maid in Berlin when Woelfiing married her in 1907, after divorcing his first wife. The second marriage soon terminated. The abandoned wife was left penni- less and was buried by friends who had known her before her marriage.

 Oil scandal or no oil scandal, I'm not going to waste my time worrying. For have too mucr to keep me hap py-aGd I am not writing of money.
 I have my wife, my son, my grand children-there are four of them now, and each is prettier than the other.
 My boy is in business with me: and he has foresight. Three years before we got into the war, he hunched that we would be dragged into it. So he organized battalion of California Naval Militia, hired a drill hall, pro- cured the use Of two navy ships for training, and was all set when the war came. The whole battalion enlisted. My boy worked himself up to the commission of a lieutenant, senior grade.
 It's such a family that makes life worth living.
 The family-and my work, without which there could be no happiness for me. I do not believe in retiring. and I hope to die with my boots on working.
 It is the way of most real prospec- tors. I guess. I recall Bill Hope, an old crony, with whom teamed up at Tanto Basin while was prospecting alone back in TT. We went it togeth- CT for two years-a long time In the wilds-part of the time we spent looking for the Adams Diggings; part of the time We prospected around the headwaters of Salt River.

SOVIET RECOGNITION
 BY JAPAN DOUBTFUL
Move Months On Despite Favor
 able Public Sentiment

Tokio, April 11.-Japanese recog nition of the Russian Soviet govern ment is still many months off, in spite of the widespread sentiment in favor of such a step. The movement has enjoyed a revival in recent weeks fol- lowing the resumption of relations be- tween Britain and Russia and Italy and Russia.
 There is small possibility that the Japanese government will take any steps toward closer relations with Russia before the genera. election for the House of Representative May 10. Prom an unimpeachable source it is learned that Baron Keishiro Matsui, foreign minister, and his colleagues in the cabinet do not wish to add for eign issue of such importance as Rus sian recognition to the already inn sposing array of domestic issues which complicats their position before the electorate.
 Moreover, by delaying a decision until May the government will be able to follow the pending Anglo Russian negotiations, the outcome of which will greatly influence Japanese policy. In spite of the insistepce of d considerable body of public opin- ion. and most of the leading papers, that immediate action be taken to es- tablish Russo-Japanese relations on q formal basis. in official circles there is still much skepticism concerning the Soviets intentions. Officials eX- press the opinion that tho labor min ;stry in England will find many ob- staeles in the way of complete nnder- standing with Moscow. The foreign office, therefore, intends to tread war fly and watch carefully.
 The possibility is widely discussed in ToiSio that Japan might attempt to reopen commercial relations with
