AS De Pinedo jumped from the cock

he will go direct to New York to await

PARIS, April Announcement
China by foreign governments since
the Boxer rebellion in 1900 was made
by the French foreign office today.
The announcement said the ministers
of France Great Britain, Italy, Japan
and the United States have been in
structed by their governments to hand
joint note of protest to the Peking
government against the treatment ac-
corded their nationals. It was stated
that Che note would threaten penalties
but without specifying their nature. 1t
is supposed that the decision to send
the note is mainly due to the Marking
affair.
1t is understood the note will be
drafted BY the ministers in Peking and
will follow lines indicated in instruc-
tions from their governments. Accord-
ing to the foreign office, France is
now convinced that she no longer can
act independently in China and her
minister in Peking has been instructed
to cooperate with the other diplomats
concerned in presenting identic notes
to the Chinese government, setting
forth that the lives and property of
foreigners must be safeguarded against
acts of violence.
In connection with today's announce
lnent, it was reported that there is no
intention at this time of joint punitive
action in China and no further French
troops will be sent there for the pres
ent.

Travelling Sand Dunes.

AS one makes the ascent of the
Andes from the Pacific port of
Molendo. in Peru, following the line
of the Southern Peruvian Railway,
the climb to the divide is broken by
two great steps or wide-spreading
shelves of desert or pampa.
On the first of these steps, about
two hours steep climb from the sea,
and at an altitude of from 1000 TO
5000 feet, are located the famous
drifting sand hills of Peru. The plateau
is here about 20 miles wide. the air
thin and dry and no trace of veGeta-
ton to be seen, only these gigantic
crescent-shaped sand dunes dottine
the pampa as far as the eye can see.
Composed of fine gray crystal sand
they gleam white against the brown
of the desert, and their horns point to-
ward the prevailing south wind of this
region. They are from Is to % or
even 30 feet high, 20 feet in breadth
across the thick part of the crescent
horn. So tightly is the sand packed
that the feet of the horses or mules
make little impression on it.
These sand hills, called menanos.
travel with almost imperceptible slow
ness, and when they threaten the rail
way track they can sometimes be dl-
verted by piling up blocks of stone in
their paths, otherwise the railway
bed has to be altered to go around
them. An analysis of the soil of this
region shows that il would be very
fertile IL irrigated from the available
snow fields of the Andes, so that it Is
possible there will come a day when
its desolate sand dunes will cease to be.
