4 THE DAILY RECORD, THURSDAY, JANUARY 21, 1909. No. 897. AMERICAN NOTES. (From our New York correspondent.) CANNED TROUSSEAU. American customs officials in their intercourse with immigrants and returning European travellers have seen, heard, and experienced enough to spare, but even they operted wide their eyes when recentlv an Italian, by name Dominico Petruccio, who arrived in America, carefully opened his three boxes for the customs examination, and showed them full of cans. The officials sent for a can-opener, and cut open the first can, which was 18 inches long. In stead of sardines they found in it an old-fashioned dress of red silk. It was the wedding dress which the new arrival’s grandmother and various great and great-great-grandmothers had worn. In the other cans also were all kinds of bridal adornments, more or less valueless. The Italian stated that he had brought over all the things for his bride in Texas. The customs officials estimated the dutiable value of the lot at—82.30! Petruccio, however, had valued the collection so highly that he had packed it in air-tight cans. THE STREET-CAR PASSENGER’S PARADISE. The golden age, in which every man blindly trusts his neighbour, and honesty is trumps, has dawned in Minneapolis, Minn. The local street-car company has found itself in a position to make a positively astounding concession to its public. Persons who enter the cars with dollar bills, which the conductor cannot change, or with no money at all are hence forth no longer to be forced to alight at once. In such cases of inability to pay the fare, the conduc tor hands a ticket with the following words printed upon it: “Hereby I declare that I owe a five cents fare to the Twin City Rapid Transit Company (such is the title of the Tramways Company). I promise to send it at once to the office of the Company.” These tickets the conductor is directed to hand over in all cases where a passenger for one reason or another is unable to pay the exact fare. The Com pany, it is true, reserves to itself the right of even tually taking proceedings against persons on whose honour they have reckoned without their host. INDIGENT CHILDREN. The problem of the care of children needing sup port in America has become so momentous that the creation of a national Children’s Bureau is serious ly contemplated; the Bureau is to publish informa tion as to how the question of dealing with these children may be solved in the most desirable ways. Recognising the importance of this soqial economic question President Roosevelt has issued invitations to a. Congress, in which men and women who have enjoyed ample experience in the domain of the care of children, will take part. Among the questions which will come up for discussion at the Congress, will be that of the desirablility of removing children in need of support, but physically and mentally nor mal, from their families, or of allowing them to re ceive support while remaining in the famjly circle. The latter course should be preferred in cases where the parents are of respectable character and are only in temporary need. LYNCH LAW. In the past year in America 65 persons were handed over to the courts of Judge Lynch. In the majority of cases the persons lynched were negroes, and all of them, sa«e two, occurred in the hot-blooded Southern States. In 1907 51 persons, and in 1906 65 were the victipis of popular justice. In a con siderable number of the cases of lynch law in the past year, racial conflicts, answerable for the deaths of numerous persons, accompanied the lynchings. As in former years crimes against women, or alleged crimes or murders were the immediate causes of the lynchings. The lynchings of the past year were divided among the following States: Georgia 16, Texas 15, Mississippi 13, Tennessee 9, Louisiana 2, Florida 2, Alabama 2, North Carolina 1, South Ca rolina 1, Illinois 1, Kentucky 2, California 1. AMERICAN AERONAUTICS. The city of St. Louis enjoys the reputation of being the centre of American aeronautic endeavours. It is claimed by the aeronauts of the city of his sacred majesty, King Louis, that the city by virtue of its central position in the American continent is better adapted as the starting point for aeronautic races than any other American city. The Aero Club of St. Louis is now planning to hold an interna tional aeronautic exhibition »n the last week of May next, the chief attraction at Which will be a large number of aeronautic ascents in a closed building. Aeronauts and inventors from all parts of the world are to be invited to patronise the exhibition. PROHIBITION IN NEW ZEALAND.

Picture exhibition. lesson in the truth that you cannot make people sober by Act of Parliament, but that only an in creasing moral sense can cure drunkeness. New Zea land is teaching us the same lesson. A correspondent points out that in the no-licence districts of Inver cargill, Oamaru, and Ashburton there has been an increase in the quantity of liquor consumed since the restrictions were introduced. Considerably more than one hundred thousand gallons of beer, two thousand gallons of porter, and seven thousand gal lons of whisky and other spirits in the past two and a half years, have been introduced into Invercar gill. In the same period Oamaru has taken twenty- three thousand gallons of beer, five thousand gal lons of whisky, between four and five hundred gal lons of brandy, and nearly forty thousand bottles of beer and spirits. In five years Ashburton has de manded over one hundred thousand gallons of beer, three thousand three hundred bottles of spirits, and getting on for nine thousand cases of whisky and wine. This is an enormous quantity to be consumed in these districts, w>hen it is considered that the entire white population of New Zealand is only nine hundred thousand. The prohibition of licences means that every man must buy his liquor whole sale, free from the restrictions which every publican in his own interest places on his customers. THE AMERICAN FLEETJN EGYPT. The Globe correspondent at Cairo, writing under date of January 11, has the following interesting remarks to make apropos of Admiral Sperry’s visit to Port Said: Many fleets have visited Egypt with messages of peace, but never before have such interesting mani festations of goodwill passed between naval war riors and the Egyptian people as this week in the case of the American Armada. An astonishing sight for sophisticated Anglo-Egyptian residents was to see on Monday evening a wealthy Egyptian notable in the act of entertainig a crowd of the American bluejackets in one of the first-class “saloon” with which modern Cairo is bestrewn. His hosp!italjty was as genuine and spontaneous as any sailorman could have wished, and he wound up the feasting by freighting carriages for a general drive round the city. British, French, and German sailors have been “cruising” about the pyramids on ceremonial vtfsits of late years, but never have they been quite ^as much the rage as the American visitors today. Admiral Sperry had barely anchored at Port Said when, in accordance with instructions from Washing ton, he despatched the “Yankton” and “Colgoa” to Messina packed with relief stores, includifig 100,000ibs. of bread, 92,0001bs. of fruits, 95,000lbs. of meat, and 100,OOOIbs. of preserved meat, 88,0001bs. of vegetables, and so on, for Messina, together with medical stores under the charge of a number of fleet surgeons. The Khedive, in his new character of being the co-partner of the British Diplomatic Agent in working for the good of Egypt, threw him self with unusual zest into the task of entertaining the officers of the Fleet, and after holding a re ception in the morning gave a banquet in their ho nour in the evening at Abdeen Palace. Sir Eldon Gorst, on his part, displayed the hospitality of the British Agency at a lunch to Admiral Potter and his officers. IN THE DAYS OF OLD. It has been stated that such a wholesale vindi cation of the law as was recently witnessed at Bethune is without parallel in French history. This is not quite correct, but it seems that one has to go back to 1674 to find anything like a similar case, and with the numbers all resemblance ends. Under Louis XIV. a terrible scene was enacted out side the Bastille. The Prince de Rohan, the Che valier des Preaux, and la Marquise de Villars were found guilty of high treason. They were all be headed. Associated with them was Professor Van den Enden, an aged doctor of medicine; but, not being of high descent, he was hanged after he had suffered terrible tortures. One other point of in terest in connection with the events at Bethune: it is not generally known that the sons of the public executioner in France are not liable to military service.
