BEHRING SEA CLAIMS.
The Counsel for (ireat Britain Have Pre- pared their Argumence ia the Case,
When the Behring Sea Claims Commis- siow concluded its labors in the west a few mouths ayo, it was decided that it should name a place where the oral argument should be beld. Inthe meantime both the British and American counsel! were to exchange and file written arguments.
The counsel for Great Britain have con4 pleted the preparation of their argument. li
is of a very voluminous character, covering
200 printed pages. It deals minutely with all matters couvected with the claims, the introductory remarks alove covering 10 | fewer than thirteen pages. These remarks
embrace the assertion of jurisdiction by
the United Siates, the first seizure in 1886, United States statuies, diplomatic corres— | dence, orders for discontinuance of proceedings and release of vessels and per- sons, assurance against further seizure, protesta agaiost reuewed seizures, the questions submitted tothe arbitrators, etc. ‘Tne factum then goes on to deal with the scope of the convention, touches on the
effect of the Paris Award, has something to say on the measure of damage, and quotes the law on the sulject, gives reasous why Great Britain is entitied to
recover for loss of catch, submits that the indemnity should comprise interest calen-
lated at the rate cnrrent in Britixh Columbia ow the whole amount of the loss or damage from the time such damage was suffered,
to the expiration of the six months allowed by the convention for the payment of the amount awarded, deals with the question of whether or not Great Britain’s claim is atfected dy citizens of the Uuited States having an interést in any of the vessels, refers to the effect of domicile or nation- ality, contends that in the case of each claim there should be aliowed a sum sufli- cient to compensate each member of the crew for persenal hardship suffered by him in cousequence of the seizure and arrest, this sum being in addition to damages sustained by reason of the breaking up of the voyage. ‘The character and extent of the sealing grounds in Behring Sea is entered into as well as the duration of the sealing season, the method for computing the eetimaied catch, value of seal skins, special conditions affecting the value of vessel*, und then follows a concise statement of the facts relating to each claim. The claims vpon which inierest is charged at tue rate of 7 per cent.. from the dates mentioned in the paruculars until payment, are twenty-six ia _unmber, aggregating & total amount of $857,702.23, interest and covering the 1287, 1889, 1890 and
exclusive of seizures Of 1886, 1892.

SANDBOX TREES.
mee - >
The Gigantic Touch Me,Nots of the Tropica “Have Explosiye Fruits. Everybody is familiar with the
‘‘touch me not,’’ thespretty jewel weed
that grows along the side of water
courses. When its seed pods are ripe, at the slightest touch othey will explode, blowing the seeds im’ your faee. The giant among them isothe sandbox tree
(Hura crepitans), a mative of tropical
Ameri¢a. Its furrowed fruits are as
large as an orange. Cosmos of Pivis
thus describes this Krapp gun of tne vegetable world:
‘It is often cultivated as an corna- mental tree, both in its native country and in other parts of the globe, notably in certain gardens in the Indies. Its fruit looks on the outside something like a melon; it is formed exactly like that of our native euphorbias, of sections, which at maturity separate violently with so intense a report that it has been compared to the sound of a pistol, throwing its seed to a considerable dis- tance.
‘‘With the fruit avery pretty sand- box can be made by cutting a circular opening in the upper part, extracting the seeds and then covering the open- ing. The opposite side is perforated with little h@es. A sandbox thus made is very difficult to keep, for the time al- Ways comes when, aided by the drying
