BRITISH PEERS SELLjSTATES Claim Action Is Forced Upon Them by Taxation and Death Duties. One Big Landed Proprietor After Another Is Dividing and Selling His Holdings—In Same Families for Many Centuries, London.—England's great estates are crumbling under the weight of taxation and death duties and one big landed proprietor after another among the nobility Is dividing and selling his holdings, many of which have been in the hands of single families for cen turies. The latest Indication that peers are finding It necessary to seek smaller homes conies In the announcement of the duke of Portland that he may have to abandon his palatial mansion, Welbeek Abbey, In Nottinghamshire. This Is only one of the residences of the duke, who owns some 200,000 acres In England. Duke Expresses Fears. “For centuries past landed estates have been handed down from genera tion to generation,” said the duke, addressing his tenants on the occasion of the coming of age of his son Eord Francis Cavendish. “Landlords and tenants have lived on terms of mutual trust and affection. I fear, howevtr. that the stnte of things Is passing away, for with the present weight of taxation and the extremely onerous death duties, the future may become very uncertain for ail landed pro prietors. If this Is good for the eonntry. I certainly do not complain "With regard to my own case. It may not possible for me and my family to continue to reside at Welbeek, hut T fear that there oan be little doubt that those who come after me will not be able to do so.” Many Connections Sevei-ed. , On all sides historic houses are find ing new tenants and ancient fam ’lef are severing their connection wPb ft* soli. The duke of Devonshire sold Devonshire house In 1919 and Sto ve house, the property of Baroness KJn loss, was disposed of recently. Others who have sold their pror >r tles recently Include the duke of Bed ford, the duke of Westminster, the duke of Rutland, the duke of Grafton, the duke of Marlborough I/ord Leeonfleld, Lord Beauchamp.

Lord Lincolnshire In the house of lords declared the pres ent ministry was preparing to sell •he crown lands and sold nothing re- ; muloed but “to pawn the crown Jewels ” I T^pif es Heroic Dead I Perhaps the highest keynote of Memorial day, either In this country or abroad, was struck at Suresnes, the high hill under the guns of Mt, Val erien, overlooking the city of Paris, to which President Wilson went last Memorial day to pay his homage to the several thousand American dead buried there. The first American mon ument abroad authorized by the War department was set up at Suresnes, France, last year, and unveiled as a part of the Memorial day observance. The statue, then a plaster cast of heroic size, is the copy and conception of the typical American infantryman by Joe Davidson, the American sculp tor. As finally done In granite It will be given by Mrs, Willard D. Straight “for sentinel duty at Suresnes.” Our photograph was taken during the Memorial day exercises engaged in by French and Americans last year German schools Find Teaching of Medicine by Movies Excels Former Methods. Berlin.— An Invention hy which de tailed, enlarged moving pictures of intricate surgical operations are taken without Interfering with the operating physicians and without the presence i of a camera operator has been per footed hy Dr. A. Ttothe of Berlin, and now is being nsed in a number of German medical universities, for the benefit of students. It is claimed that the students obtain better Instruction from a study of the movie picture of j the operation than from witnessing the operation itself. The “operation camera" Is designed to hang directly above the operating physician’s hands. The cinemato graphies! lamps are In a room above, separated from the operating room by a glass roof. After the machine has been placed in position an operating physician or a nurse can start it by pressing an electrical foot device, which is all the attention necessary on the part of the doctor or the attendants.

Youths who like adventure and heaps of excitement are advised to try hunting wild horses in the Okan oga hills near the Canadian border of Washington, 'finite are several thou sand untamable cayuses In this uiisur veyed region of steep hills and deep valleys, against which settlers on agri cultural land have begun a war of ex termination. The wild steeds are troublesome, demolishing fences to eat and trample haystacks. The stallions entice away domesticated marcs, and often large herds of horses chase cows and sheep to death. Once domesticated horses are mingled with these wild ones they quickly become outlaws. Before the present plan of shooting was adopted hy ranchers, they tried eorraling and shipping the captured ■feeds to Eastern horse markets. The expense and danger of entching alive was found above possible profits. These wild broncos are vicious, and often, rather then submit to capture, dash their brains out by running pell melt Into rocky ledges. One expedition during a month of «1ld horse -talking shot 120 animals. Only the skins were taken. Some of the wild stallions proved to be excel lent specimens, one brown and sorrel estimated at 1.200 pounds weight. The mares seldom average more than 800 pounds. Where these horses range is a faulty, had-land region between the Cascade and Itookx mountains; a nat ural grass count rx arid in summer, but the winters a fie mild, with light snowfall. NEW NATIONAL PARK WONDER Red Snow With Taste of Watermelons Arouses Curiosity of Travelers in Rocky Mountain Park. Washington.—Add blood-red snow, with the taste of watermelons, to the wonders of America's national parks. Out In the Rocky Mountain park in Colorado, on the continental divide that rises nearly 12,000 feet above sea level, tourists have seen the col ored snow and have asked why they see red. The rays of the setting sun reflect ing on the snow at about twilight has been blamed by those who traveled toward the close of the day, but in full daylight the redness of the snow does not disappear. Countless billions of tiny organisms, that move and grow and reproduce In the cold environment, are responsible, government exjierts have found. Protococcus nivalis is the name of this microscopic bolshevik, who has the characteristics of both the plant and animal kingdoms. The coloration of the snow is more intensive a quarter of an Inch below the surface, and the streaks that are often red as blood have a sweetish taste when placed nrt the tongue. This strange snow colorer Is be lleved to have come from the arctic regions, where it Inis been found In the past. Scientists believe that its spores may have been brought down from the North by the Chinook winds. 1 I - .. -1 For Kent—Housekeeping rooms, modem, 35.
