 Although Sir Henry had no money he wrote to the captain and charter ed the ship in the name of the gov ernment Of India. Then he rushed back into the forest with Indian as sistants and collected the seeds of yhe full-groWn hcvea trees. These were packed between dried banana leaves and loaded into the ship.
 Unfortunately the ship was obliged 10 call at Para on its way out Of the river, and Sir Henry Wjckham feared the Portuguese officials Bra2il was then the pos session of HortugaD would stop his precious cargo. Tn fact he knew they would hold ii Up if they dis covered what if was.
 So the steamer merely halted at Para and conveyed to the port off cials the message that they were carrying rare botanical specimens 10 "Hcr Brittanic Matcsty's own Royal Gardens at Kew"
 The ruse worked, and the ship sot sail for England and made a fas. trip. In June, 1S76, Sir Henry Wickham had satisfaction of see ing the orchids turned out Of their house at Kew Gardens to make way for the precious rubber seeds and two weeks later the rubber seeds were sprouting.

sixties. His was a voice crying in the wilderness in those days. when he tried to Interest Britishers in rubber cultivation.
 But he finally enlisted the sym- pathy Of Sir Joseph Hooker at Kew, and showed him the first drawing which was probably ever made from nature of a leaf and seed of a Para rubber tree. A little later Sir Henry got the ear of Sir Clements Markham. of the India office, who gave the young explorer 6 rowing commission to bring the rubber tree seed back to England.
 The rubber seed was so short lived that this was a difficult task.
 Sir Henry was then engaged in cuI- itjvatiug rubber at Santarem. over |&p0 miles from the mouth of the 1 Amazon. One day an ocean liner, 1 the Amazonas of the Inman line, Iarrived in the river to the great as- Itonishment of tho little British col
 ony. By q strange fate, which probably prevented Brazil from
 holding the grasp on the rubber
 trade which is now in the hands O the British, the steamer was strand ,nl in the river by her two super ,cargoes and lay empty in the rive with no cargo for her return trip.

Beloin, somewhat older. but just as active and n great deal veal, hier, throws open to the public a quarter million dollar structure, the largest garage in the state Of Connecticut,

 T never thought l got quite what was worth then and I'm trying to dig 1t out now" he says.
 His garage Is a marvel Of business foresight. He admits that the structure just completed may be C few years ahead Of It's time, but il is in the business section, faces the railroad station, Is on the site Of the old factory and practically ad- joins the former Hotel Beloin which he owned for 2l years, so he is satisfied. and New Britain automo. bile owners are offered the last word in auto service as a result.

Breaking Up of River
Big Sport Event In
North

TanaAa, Alaska, July 17.-(P)-
Here in the North one of the big
sporting events of the season-one on
which wagers are laid and specula-
ton is keen-is the date of the Spring
breakup of winter ice on the Yukon
river.
Like this year, when the first warn
ing was a sudden overflow, the win
ner of a bet may learn of his good
luck by the sweeping of flood
across the ice and then onward.
filling the Yukon from bank to bank.
The overflow this season cut a
channel mid stream to the bottom of
the river, the sinking waters leaving
ice shelves hanging anchored to the
shore. While in this condition the
streams are not possible of naviga-
ton or surface travel. Frequently
transportation of mails must Tempo
rarily cease, so the shut in resident
is interested in just when the big
break will come. He uses all his ma
ture craft and Northland cunning 20
calculate the event in advance, back
ing his judgment with hard earned
coin.
Usually the run of ice cakes down
the Yukon lasts about eight DAYS.
The first boats from Dawson follow
the ice down the Yukon and then
turn south and up the Tanana river
to connect with the Alaska railroad
at Nenana, re- establishing traffic
with the outside world.
