Vod Papen's Papers. The fact that Captain von Papen, the discredited German military attache to the United Statee, permitted himself to be found in possession, at Folkestone, enroule to Germany, of a large- quantity of incriminating eviden- ce concerning German spiracies in the United States proves him to be a devil-may care type of individual, and a danger not only to those against whom he had been plotting bat also to those who had associated themselves with his dastardly schemes. The United States is well rid of him, but there will be not a few left who are shaking in their shoes" as to the outcome of their leader's indiscretion

Naturally, the exposure bas created a tremendous sensa- tion not only in the United States but in England and, the blame baving been fixed, the question now arises" What is to be done?”

Kuangsi, Szechnen, Hunan, and Kueichou have asked that punishment of the rebels should be deferred pending the return of delegates who have been sent to induce them to lay down their sama, a punitive force has been organised and is marching on Yunnan from three different points. The number of troops ia the Province is variously estimst ed at 100,000, 50,000 and 10,000, but, whatever the number, they are said to be well-equpped by the local Arsenal, which is 18- ported to be capable of turning oat 3,000 rifles and 20,000 roundə of ammunition a day.

Afforestation in Chian

It has recently been announced that the Chinese Government in tends to inaugurate an active pro gramme of re-afforestation. To that end & Forestry Department. has been formed, and two foreign experts have been engaged-one British and, cas Ameries. A Chinese forestry expert has also been touring extensively in China trying by illustrated lectures to create a public interest in forestry conservation, thus preparing the people to take up the work of re- añorestation. At a meeting 3 Foochow recently this expert delivered his lectures before audiences of students who in the aggregate numbered over five. thousand, and before other audiences of officials, business men and gentry, Sir F. 8.

With such expert advisers as Mr. Purdom, who was formedy attached to the Kew Arboretum and Mr. Sherfessee, who has held & reapons ble poet in the Phili pines Forestry Bureau, the Chin ese Government ought soon able to give substantial proofs its resolve to inaugurate of reafforestation on able scale, but some elapse before the work becomes obricos
