As a consequence of the recent bit
ter cold and the heavy snowfalls many
wolves and wild boars have descended
from the mountains and made their
appearance on the Carso and in other
parts Of the Julian Venetia, says a
Milan correspondent Of the London
Times.
One night wolves besieged the sta
ton Of Prestane- Mattegna, near
Trieste, where the employees barri-
caded the building and defended
themselves. The wolves disappeared
only at dawn. At San Pietro del
Carso two big wild boars were killed.
One Of them weighed more than 600
pounds. A number Of wild boars ap-
peared in the province of Savona,
along the Riviera. Two were killed.
In Umbria wolves are reported to be
rayaging the countryside. A reward
of 400 lire ($15) for each wolf shot
is being offered by various munich
palities.

Far Chinese Students

Sun Yat-sen university for Chinese
students has opened In Moscow with
an attendance of 300, 80 being girls.
The university confines itself to aca-
demic courses for Chinese who want
to study abroad. Some of the stu
dents are from Canton and southern
China, but most Of them are from
Mongolia and the north. Inquiries
among them to ascertain their proie-
tartan or bourgeois origin showed that
nearly all of them came from well-to-
do families or had been attracted to
Moscow for adventure and entertain
ment. One PEASANTS son materialized'
but his father has 40 acres and 30
cows-plainly bourgeois in either
Russia or China.
