TIBET OPEN TO CHRISTIANS
Officials Hav Invited Missionaries ta
i Enter Freely Into ths "For.
; bidden Land."
Those disciples of Christ who Inter
est themselves in foreign missions are
aroused over an invitation coming to
American disciples from Tibet, accord
ing to the Boston Evening Transcript.
This land, occupying the "roof of the
world," has heretofore been practical
ly closed to all foreigners. That It has
been so was due, so Tibet officials tell
'American disciples, to the influence
of China. Now Tibet has thrown off
Chinese control and one of Its first acts
to Unocal for Christlnn mlssionnHea
The disciples have a mission station
at Batang, one of the farthest west cit-
jle of China, nearly 3,000 miles urfthe
iXangste river.
A venturesome American doctor,
sent out by the disciples, Journeyed
;18 days farther west, getting into Ti
bet and into a city wherein disease in
i its worst form, unattended and not un
derstood, ravaged the people. The
doctor set up an Impromptu clinic and
dispensary. The relief was so great
that one of the highest civic officials
,in all Tibet begged him to stay, or If
he could not do so to return, build a
hospital and official Tibet would help
hiin.
Now the disciples argue that here is
,a cull they are not at liberty to Ignore.
their missionary society has acted to
this effect. An appeal has been made I
foi four families, two of them phy
sician families, to go; It Is said there
;nv no Imunitule im nlm i.l,f,c, im
jjyhwols, no Christian agencies of any
4J.ihj in that country of 4,000,000 peo
ple. American manufactured goods
are beginning to roach Tibet and
Scotch whisky has been there for a
decade or two.
OLD BOXER DIES ON FIELD
.Dick Burse, Once Well Known in This
Country Met His Death Fight
ing in France.
Late Private Hie-hard Burge of the
First Surrey rilles never was a quit

at the half century mark, he enlisted !
and died the death of a soldier. He i
was once the lightweight champion of
England, and was born December i
10, 1S05. - I
Dick Burge was a name well known
to the fight fans on both sides of the
Atlantic 20 years or -so ago, chiefly
because of his remarkable battle with
Kid Lavlgne for the lightweight cham
pionship of the world. Dick was sev
eral Inches taller than the Saginaw
Kid, and be had a considerable ad
vantage in weight, but, much to his
surprise and that pt the English fans,
he wus knocked out In the seventeenth
round. He gave a good account of
himself before he tell, however, and

Rulers With Business Instincts.
At the outset of his Imperial career
the grandfather of the former German
Uaiser, Frederick William, owed his
accumulation of money to his com
mercial dealings. One of his commer
cial undertakings was to start milk
rounds, which did exceedingly well, in
spite of being carried ou sub rosa, for
the German courtiers found that the
Imperial favor was dependent upon
their patronizing the imperial dairy.
In this way the old emperor created
a huge milk monopoly in various cities,
and reaped a correspondingly large
profit. Kaiser Wilhelm himself had
keen commercial Instincts, and had a
linger In most of the big German un
dertakings. In Germany it was cur
rently reported that Ballin was mere
ly the figure-head of the North Ger
man Lloyd line of steamships, and
that the kaiser was the real man ai
the helm, and the same thing was said
of many other money-making con
cerns.

FISH FOR GULLS AND PETRELS
Ths&c Birds aMi
3 the Albatross
Are Frequently Taken With
Rod and Line.
Curious ihntigli it may seem. It Is
a fn t that birds are cntr.rht with rod
and luie in many parts of I lie won;.
The p.txtimo Is declared to be almost
fascinating ns fishing. Gulls In
Newfoundland nre caught in lias way
In large quantities. In New England
fishing for culls and petrels is an Im
portant Industry.
The method of bird fishing Is prac
tically the same ns that of ordinary
fbhlng. Two men go out In a dory
imkI llirow pieces of cod liver on the
water. When large quantities of birds
have been attracted to the spot more
cod liver is thrown out on a hook.
This the birds greedily swallow and
thus fall easy victims.
Albatross are fished for In the same
way off the Cape of Good Hope. A
piece of pork Is attached to n long line
and thrown overboard. The bird will
eve It for a long time, gradually and
cautiously making toward It. Rudden
llv he will seize It and hold It In his
, I'enk. When he discovers that he Is
caught he will sit on the wat and
I vigorously flap his wings. However,
! he will be drawn Into the boat and
, made a captive.
j Albatross fishing Is good sport, since
the bird requires careful handling. So
loii'i as he pulls against the line It
Is easy enough. The moment, how
ever, lie swims forward the hook will
drop from his beak unless It is skill-
; fully manipulated, and tho bird will
i find himself free.

Gird Builds Several Nests.
Some birds get very, nervous and be
come much excited It you approach
their nesfs and among them Is the
black-throated green warbler, says the
American Forestry association of
Washington, which is conducting the
national bird-house building contest
for school children. Another thing
about this bird is that it frequently
builds several nests. Whether this is
because it changed ils mind after
building the first one and decided to
select a heller location or with the
deliberate purpose of deceiving any
Intruders who might come along is
not known. The bird Is very beau
tifully colored, the top of its henJ and
the region marly down to the shoul
ders being a yellow green, the back
olive green, the throat and breast .let

some ,vi iw in them at times.
