 ."In establishing these new dis tricts, it has been necessary to re- wise the open and close seasons for the fur bearers. In doing this the Commission has followed a sugges- ton that is almost universal among the trappers of the Territory to have the season for mink, land ot- ter, weasel, foxes and lynx open at the same time and close sim ultaneously, instead of separate open seasons for mink, land otter and weasel. and for foxes and lynx as heretofore.

He would welcome an explanation for
impoverished Vienna taxing her people
nearly Sl,000,000 each year to support
the opera house, whereas New York gives
very grudgingly about $4,000.
The Viennese consider opera spiritual
necessity and not fashionable gesture,
and they pay the special tax cheerfully,
even the humblest, rather than be de-
prived of this release from the grind
ing cares of life. Berlin supports,
through special taxes, what is called the
Fart and the best of the modern italian
and French productions may be en-
joyed for something less than 40 cents.
Various cities of Europe tax luxuries
for the support of music. Riga, capital
of Latvia, makes every glass Of beer
quaffed, or of wine or stronger waters,
contribute about cents to the main
tenance of the national opera house
and conservatory. Mr. Kahn would like
to persuade Gothamites to follow such
an excellent example, especially that
the bootleggers would have to contrib
ute If the Riga program were advo-
Gated. Mr.. Baruch continues to visit
European spas of renown and study
their methods, in order that the glory
of Saratoga may exceed them all.
Britains Chief Justice, Lord Gordon
Hewart, has occupied his exalted
post since 1922 and is on terms of
friendship with Chief Justice Hughes,
who from time to time has visited Lon
don on legal matters. Although the
lord chancellor is the highest judicial
officer in the United Kingdom, he is
subject to political exigencies, whereas
the Chief Justice Is a permanent ap-
poiptee during life or good behavior.
There have been four chancellors in
the eight years during which Chief JUS
tice Lord Hewart has been in Office. He
is a self-made man from Lancashire.
the son of linen draper in Bury and,
having passed brilliantly through the
Manchester grammar school, won an
Oxford scholarship.
Lady Gordon Hewart is one Of the
beauties of London's political realm,
and was before her marriage Miss
Sarah Wood Riley, daughter Of pros
porous ironmonger of Bristol. She has
visited this side of the Atlantic on
several occasions, but the Chief Justice
is not travelling man, and when he is
on holiday he prefers his handsome
estate, Totteridge, in Hertfordshire,
where he raises blooded stock and has
spacious and successful truck gardens
Lady Hewart attends to the flower
gardens and has won many prizes in
the local shows. Gordon HeWart, jr.

boast that she had acquired taste for
every fruit which the far-fiung British
Empire could furnish. Queen AleXan-
dra made a few efforts to eat the for
eign melons which have such vogue
in the globe -trotting section of London,
and then she found the task impossi-
Bile. The consort of George v has the
reputation of being the simplest eater
in the royal circle, but she has acquired
a liking for the mango, which comes
from Jamaica and is so highly priced
by epicures.
These melons reach New York by way
of Havana, often sent by air for special
feaSts on Long Island, and are general
~ to be purchased in the Washington
market, where the supply seldom equals
the demand. Several hundred thou
sand Latins of all the diverse countries
in the Western World and from Europe
live in New York City, and they con
slider that species of mango known as
the mulgoba as the most delicious and
desirable Summer fruit.
The late Capt. J. A. Haden, who spent
much time in Cuba, raised the mulgoba
melon or mango very successfully at the
farm near Cocoanut Grove In Florida,
and many the dinner party al fresco
was glorified for the Washington friends
of this fine agriculturist by these dain
ties. In Havana and, in fact, all over
the West Indies, unfamiliar melons offer
gaStronomic adventures, and many visi-
tors learn to enjoy them. Few, however,
can be shipped as far as Washington,
although the Minister from Panama and
Sonora de Alfaro often give their
friends treat of mangoeS which arrive
by way of the airmail. Senator and
Mrs. Phipps of Colorado lament that

When Mr.. Clinton Ledyard Blair, well

sell his splendid home at the corner of
Fifth avenue and East Eighty-first

or more deciding on their future home.
They had long been accustomed to
spending some of the rigorous weather
at Hamilton In the Bermudas, so they
purchased a spacious site and have
built one of the finest domiciles in that
enchanted region. They had nearly all
the ornamental portions of their New

ROBERT SMITH, Z, BROWNS PLAYING IN GOLD CREEK
Searchers Unable to Find Body of C. w. Car
 ters Grandson

Robert Kimbrough Smith, two years old, son of Mrs. F. V. Smith and stepson of F. V. Smith, while playing with his brother Charles, on the bank of Gold Creek during the noon hour today. fell into the water and was drowned The body had not been recovered late this after noon.
 Robert and Charles, who is three and a half years of age, had been seen by their mother shortly before the accident in the sand box of the yard of their home, which is on Twelfth Street, close to where the thoroughfare is crossed by Gold Creek. When Charles came running into the house, he said:
 Robbie has fallen into the water and it is carrying him away"
 The mother ran to the creek, but could see nothing of her missing son. Neighbors at once telephoned the hall of the Fire Department. The fire bell sounded the 2-9 gen. eral alarm, and members of the department quickly gathered at the hall. They were taken in the fire truck from there to the scene of the fatality.
 Gold Creek, from Twelfth Street to it's mouth, soon was being drag ged by many volunteers, and net was stretched across the mouth of the stream. No vestige of the child could be discovered, however.
 Owing to recent rains, the creek is unusually swift, and the opinion is held in many quarters that be- fore any searchers reached the stream the little body had been carried by the racing current into Gastineau Channel.
 MT. and Mrs. Smith were mar ried here about the middle of September. Mrs. Smith is the daughter of Mir and Mrs. Charles w. Carter of this city.
