A Boston teach er had been giving a fam iliar talk on zoology to a class of ten-year-olds, in a gram m ar school. To te st th eir intelligence, he said, in the course of his rem arks: “W ho can tell me the highest form of anim al life?" A little girl held up her hand. “ Well, M ary?” “The hy-ena,” shouted Mary, seriously, but trium phantly. R epressing a sm ile, the teacher said: “Is it, Mary? Think again. Is a hyena the very h ighest?” “Oh, now I know,” cried M ary; “i t ’s the giraffe.” Economy, Frugality, Industry. T he original tightw ad lives In Mis souri.

Tryittoday The origin of the word "Y ankee” has been variously explained. Some au th o rities think it is a corruption of the word English, as it was pro nounced by the Am erican Indians who called the white people "Y enghies.” It seem s first to have been applied to the B ritish soldiers about 1775, as a term of reproach to the New England ers who afterw ards adopted it them selves.

AUEN ISSUE WAITS Nations Willing to Leave Dispute to Court of Arbitration. Illness of Japanese Kmperor Quiet Feeling—Representative Sis son States Plain Facts. W ashington, D. C.— Probably as a result of the anxiety in official circles in Japan over the condition of the em peror no instructions have been re ceived a t the Japanese em bassy to m ake the expected fu rth e r rep re se n ta tions to the U nited S ta te s governm ent regarding the C alifornia alien land act. The em bassy is engaged in collect ing m aterial for the continuance of the negotiations on the lines indicated in the original Japanese note of pro te s t May a. This relates principally to the phase of the negotiations touching the possible conflict betw een the C ali fornia sta te law and the tre a ty , leav ing to the foreign office the broader questions o f policy. Legal proceedings of some so rt seem to be indicated, both p a rties desiring to use th a t m eans of se ttle m e n t o f the issue, and the question apparently hinges on which side falls the respon sib ility fo r m aking this test. The new law will not go into effect until A ugust 10, before which date it would not be possible to brin g suit and for th a t reason the negotiations appear to be losing some o f the fe a tures of urgency th a t characterized the early stages. R epresentative Sisson’s speech on the Japanese question, in anticipation of which he had been enjoined to mod eration by the President, was an a t tack on the principle th a t the tre a ty m aking power of the governm ent su perseded the law -m aking pow er of the state. “ If any n a tio n ,” said Sisson, “ should decide th a t i t will d ic ta te to us our land law s then we would be un w orthy of national existence if we sub m itted to such dictation. Does any one claim th a t this is a declaration of w ar because I announce th is tru th ? “ It is no declaration of w ar for the U nited S ta te s governm ent to decline to override th e rig h ts of the sovereign sta te a t the d ictation of a foreign power. If the U nited S ta te s govern m ent should deliver a sta te over to the m ercies of a flood of aliens from any nation, then I m aintain th a t the Fed eral governm ent would have p ro stitu t ed its authority. Is the m ere an nouncem ent of this principle a declar ation of w a r? ” Sisson m ade a long argum ent pur porting to show the possibility of cor poration control of land, which would be made possible by allow ing the im portation of “ cheap alien la b o r.” “ Many of these large em ployers of labor,” he said, “ would be delighted to have the Federal governm ent, through its treaty -m ak in g power, let down the bars and let the alien come in. W hat would become of the A m er ican farm er if the g re at corporations of the country should buy all the best lands and c u ltiv ate them w ith Mongol ian, Chinese, Hindu, Ja p a n ese and o th er cheap alien labor?” GERMANS SUFFER IN ARCTIC Diary of Rescued Explorers Tells of Hardships. B erlin—A description of the te rri ble sufferings undergone by the mem bers o f the German A rctic expedition commanded by L ieutenant Schroeder- Stranz, which m et d isaster in S p its bergen, is given in the diary of the a rtis t, H e rr Rave, one of those res cued.

The e x tra cts in some places are in com plete and alm ost incoherent. They say: “ The proposal to abandon the ship came from C aptain Ritschel a t the be g inning o f Septem ber. The vessel then had provisions for four months, besides a large supply of condensed foods, and she was otherw ise well equipped. “ The p a rty sta rte d for Advent Bay and reached a hut on W ijde Bay on O ctober 4. Dr. Rudiger, the oceanog rapher, was suffering then from a half-frozen foot, two of his toes being in had condition. 1 offered to rem ain w ith him there until the others could brin g back help. The hut contained a m onth’s provisions. “ Dr. R udiger and I were w ithout tools, sleeping bags or lights. I m elt ed some fa t and made lights and fash ioned some sleeping bags from salted skins which I found in the hut. Dr. R udiger’s foot became worse and th ere w ere no more bandage m aterials. “ The provisions ran out and we left the hut Novem ber 23, hoping to re gain the ship. We suffered severely, having nothing to drink, but we final ly reached a hut on Mussel Bay, where we found some hard and moldy bread. “ We rem ained th ere three days dur ing a storm and then sta rte d again for the 9hip, guiding ourselves by the stars. We arrived a t the ship on De cem ber 1. “ Dr. R udiger m eanw hile had su f fered g reatly , two of his toes and four fingers having been frozen, while his foot became so bad th a t it had to be am putated. “ The guides and sailors of the ex pedition returned unexpectedly to the ship Decem ber 24, reporting the loss of E b erh art. They had no news of Dr. D ettm ers or Dr. Moeher, the bot an ist. T hey said C aptain R itschel had gone on alone to A dvent Bay. “ Stave died F ebruary 24 and the N orw egian relief expedition command ed by C aptain Staxrud appeared April 21 . ” The expedition sta rte d last sum m er under the patronage of the duke of A ltenberg w ith the object of finding the n e are st passage.

Fifty Others Badly Injured Part of Auditorium Crashes Down and Adds to Horror. Long Beach, Cal.—Too frail to up hold the burden of nearly 10,000 hu man beings assembled for the festiv i tie s of the B ritish Em pire day celebra tion, the land end of the big double decked pier in front of the city audi torium collapsed Saturday. Hundreds o f persons on the top deck were dropped down on the heads of other hundreds crowded on the deck below. The lower deck then gave way and all were dropped down a chute of sh a t tered woodwork to the tidewashed sands 25 fe e t below. T h irty -th ree persons—m ostly women —w ere killed by the shivered tim bers or crushed to death by the falling bod ies. F ifty m ore were seriously in jured, while h y steria and paralyzing frig h t disabled scores.

The dead were taken to the N ational Guard arm ory, w hile the injured w ere hur ried to various hospitals in th is city and Los Angeles. All the doctors in the city, rein forced by surgeons and nurses from Los Angeles, were called to care for the injured. The E m pire day parade, Jthe princi pal featu re of the celebration in honor of the late Queen V icto ria’s b irth an niversary, had ju st ended and the par ticipants, w ith thousands of visitors, were crowding up the steps of the pier and surging tow ard the auditorium when the pier floor sagged.

The w eakness of the pier, which was b u ilt e ig h t years ago and never repaired in th a t p a rticu la r portion, is believed to have been due to decay caused by the action of sa lt a ir on wood and its iron fasteners and sup ports.
