POLICEMANSCORNS TITLE Australian Heir lo IrUh Peerage Haa No Irsire to Be an Karl. LOXPOX, March i. (Speeial.) As Jekyl Chambers Puff, the Australian heir to the Fife Karldom, la unwilling to accept succession to thla empty Irish peerage. It will remain, dormant. The Puke of Fife waa well aware that the heir to his subsidiary title was enjoying a well-earned rest In Syd ney after aervlee In the, colonial po lice force, but the wide social gap be tween him and J. C. luff did not dis tress htm. perhaps because he knew Duff wouldn't move a finger to take a title that carried no property to back It up. These wide gaps which cause peer ages to pass from atrangrr to stran ger are fairly common in the history of the peerage. The Carldom of Eg mont went to a distant cousin, who at one time waa a fireman. The Earl dom of Huntingdon waa derelict for many years until a naval offlcer suc eesafully mailt good hl.i claim, while the Barony of Sinclair remained dor mant for the best part of the elBh teenth century. In this Fife rase, when the title waa nie- Honed to Duff In Sydney, he replied. "I don't want to be bothered. I'm busy playing chesH'."

LONDON. March 2. (Special.) Re publican China Is not to mean a China devoted to Confucian theories of peace. That the leaders of the new govern ment mean to guard their land is clear from the Inquiries they have directed to the military authorities In London. First of all they want the loan of expert officers to train the army and navy on modern lines. They say the revolution has provided them with enormous additions in fighting men, over and above the regular troops, but that they need better organization. Tljo republican army often suffers from the "go as you please" spirit among the rank nnd file. Moreover they need a YOU NEWSU suit. I'll guarantee the cloth, style, fit and workmanship or money back. Let me show you my mammoth shop how I measure and tailor your suit to enhance your per sonal characteristics see the materials that go into the inside and how carefully each suit is "finished up." I -am sure I can not only save you money, but also build you a suit that will look better and "hang" better than any you have ever tried. -f i?4 i RAY BARKHURST Portland's Leading Tailor Corner Sixth and Stark Streets Open every evening until 7 o'clock. Saturday evenings until 10, patriotic spirit infused into them, for they are too ready to go over to the highest bidder. To support the application for the loan of military experts there are promises of big contracts for naval and military equipment as soon as the re public is firmly established. British military authorities, shipbuilders and contractors are temporising for the present. They would like the trade and the opportunity of posins as "best friend" to the new China, but till a stable government is set up in Pekin no chances are to be taken of offending other nations. DR. HYDE IS "IN WRONG" Gaelic League Is Scored by Dublin Schoolteachers. DUBLIN, March 2. (Special.) Dr. Hyde and the Gaelic League are in the bad books of the National Teachers' Associations. The doctor, in his zeal for the Gaelic tongue, made a speech tu-re. In which he urged that teachers In the elementary schools who are un able to teach the "three Rs" in Irish should be liberally pensioned or other wise repiacea. Promptly the teachers met and parsed a resolution calling on their brethren to have nothing to do with the Gaelic League or its work till Dr. Hyde with drew tmit recommendation. NEED A I'd like might v well to make you a Spring Suit, because then you'll really know what "satisfaction in clothes" means. My stock of newest Spring fabrics is the largest and the most comprehensive in the city, and whether you want to pay $22 or $50 I'll guarantee to save you $10 to $20 on ever Now the Gaelic League explains that the reference was to Irish-speaking districts not dismissing them in cases where they could not teach in Irish. To this the teachers reply that Gaelic is no more the language of Ireland than Latin is the language of the Latin countries, such as Italy, France and Spain. The debate grows warmer at every exchange, but on the whole it is a very effective advertisement for the Gaelic Leagne. SYNOPSIS OF THE.
