It would bt- easier to drive a camel through tho eye of a needle than to smuggle a foreigner into Itussia with- out a passport. Whether be cross the Czar's frontier from the sea, by the gateway of Batoum, or by land, where the Nord Express runs through Wlrballen, the traveler will be called upon to stand and deliver his pass- port almoft before he has filled bis lungs with Russian air. U is a case of passport nrst and customs after, for if the traveler's credentials are not in order his luggage need not he opened. It might be thought that in- spection at the former would sutflce; but there Is another examination to undergo at Tlflls or St. Petersburg, as the case may be; and, Indeed, dur- ing a stay of some weeks in the capi- tal the document is usually retained by tho manager of '.be hotel, and must in- endorsed again by the police before the holder leaves the country. The one redeeming feature of this otherwise Irritating surveillance Is that K costs nothing, since the Rus- sian authorities undertake all the ne- cessary formalities without enacting so much as a rouble for their trouble. It is the fashion to resent, as well as ridicule, this attitude of the Tus- slan police; but tourists who are im- patient of such scrutiny are free to stay away, and the methods of Mus- covy are, after all, not more prying or Impertinent than those of Mont- real. The Canadian immigration bu- reau demands from each arrival an assurance that he is not an Anarchist, a polygamist, cripple, or hereditary Imbecile. It Insists on knowing whe- ther he has paid his own passage. It asks questions about his parents and grandparents, and in fact displays an inquistlveness of which Russian offi- cials would never dream. The trouble in Turkey, where the ordinary passport of other countries is replaced by the taskere, is, on the other hand, that of continual petty exactions of a few plasters here and a few piasters then 1 , not only (in the days of Abd-ul-Haruld) on entering, but actually on leaving the country as well. Nowadays, however, this rule of inspecting the teskere of anyone quitting Ottoman territory, which were merely an excuse for a last backsheesh, has wisely been done away with. The object of the passport has al- t'Ti-d during the past two centuries. The "license to travel" of Elizabeth- an times represented In effect an export duty on tourists, and was in- sisted on In tbe hope of discouraging foreign travel, which the authorities regarded, in post-reformation days, as subversive of Protestantism and likely also to undermine the patrio- tic sentiment of English youth. Ed- ward VI. and Elizabeth both gave letters, which may virtually be re- garded as passports, to commercial adventurers trading In Russia and Persia. Nowadays, on the other hand, passport Is simply a certificate of citizenship, In which the foreign sec- retary for the time being calls upon all those "whom It may concern" to pass the bearer "freely, without let or hindrance," and to afford all ne- cpssardy assistance and protection. The modern passport is a coldly Ira- personal and official document, with none of the glamor of these old let- frorn prince*; but something analogous to them survived until re- cently In Morocco, where the grand vizier used to give his sign manual to favored travelers In the atlas or other wild regions of the Sbereeflan mplre, whereby they were sure of the assistance cf country kald* and of Immunity from attack or Impost- lon. The priceless letter used to cost nothing beyond thanks at an audi- nce and tbe only obligations which It entailed on the bolder was .hat he should at his own expense ncludf a couple of Moorish soldier* n his rrtlnue. The armory of these warriors was'jomewhal obsolete, but hey were handy men In pitching a ent or lighting a camp lire and were generally worth more than their very modest ke<>p and wage. RADFORD'S BUFFALO. recount, hut instead :>f Joint' lh : s an not seem as if there is much possibi !ity irely by the < uai.tity of luiuid parattin Kxplortr'H Sprclmeii Nt.w On View In a Capital. Harry V. KacUord, the Arctic plorer, who with bis ompanion, Ueo. Street cf Ottawa, has been murdered by Ksqulmos, killed tbe largest wood buffalo known In June of 1910 m tbe trip which proved to be bis last. He told the story to H. A. Tremayne, then au Inspector of the fur trade dis- tricts for the Hudson B ly Co. Mr. Trernayne described the affair while in Winnipeg recently. I met Kadford at Fort McMurray, on tbe Athabasca river, in June, 1910 and he told mo the story of tbe hill- Ing of tills huge beast," says Mr. Tre- mayne. Then .e quotes Kadford as saying: "Desiring to obtain a large speci- men of the wood buffalo, I applied, v. iiii at Edmonton, I. the Albcrtan Government for a permit to kill one. This obtained, I traveled by boat to Fort Smith, on the Great Slave River, In 1909, and remained In that vicin- ity, pursuing my scientific Investiga- tions, until recently (June, 1910). One afternoon wo came upon tbe spoor of a band of twelve animals, among the tracks of which was one of unusual size. Indicating that its author *ras a very larte animal. We tracked tbe band for about two miles, when it was found to have divided. eight of the animals going south and application was made for an injunction to icotrnin tin: Municipal Council from currying out tbe by-law. It is suppoKed (hut thi.s was done at the btthcst of the liquor inU rests to keep the matter open until the end of thu present Jieonse year. The time for lodging an upplicatisn for recount expired on Monday night, .iml one day's gracu WBS given to make guru that this had not been done. The local license inspector has been notified by Hun. W. J. Hanna to see Unit all sale of liquor must ccaxe when the bars closei last night. In explaining his action, Hon. W. .) 1 1 n. i, i made tbe following statemen last night : "In accordance with an understanding arrived at last fall license holders and between the liquoi the license depart the remaining four (Including large one) traveling northwest. the V'e again took up tbe trail miles, to a point where for three a further separation had taken place, and the owner of the large hoofa had gone on accompanied by only one female. I succeeded in t avellng on with sil- ence and circumspection for about half a mill', when tbe trail led to a small clearing, in the middle of whlcb stood, perfectly still, an enormous bull buffalo and a cow. "Tbe moment was a agonizing one for me, but by a supreme effort I in' ni, that should local option carry in VI ea ford in January, 1914, the license! in Meaford would be forthwith thereafter discontinued, the department has given notice to the liqunr license holders to discontinue the sale of all intoxicating liquors under the terms of tbe liquor license act on and after Thursday, Jan. twenty-second." According to a message from Meaford la.st evening, the hotelkeepers of that town were only notified by License [nspector Matthew Beckett ni about 8 o'clock that they had only three hours more in which to do Im.iiness over the bar. Inspector Beckett received word himself from the License Department in the afternoon, and Jrove "over to Mea- ford from Owen Sound. Everything was quiet in the hotels controlled myself, dropped on one! between 8 o'clock and the closing hour, knee, and, aiming carefully at InejKotifioalioo to clo* had been expected heart region, fired. l- ' u ~ *-" ' --n. move. I fired frightful bellow, be fell on his and lay struggling. Still fearful that the Injuries inflicted might not be vital and that the prize might yet escape me, 1 fired three more shots, after which the beast lay quite still. "I had the carcass tak.n to Fort .-ml f: by horse sleigh and, having procured the scales, found that it tipped the beam at 2,250 pounds, eas- ily a world's recoil." The sequel is thus related by Mr Tremayne: "In reaching Smith's Landing wit'- the carcass Kadford was arrejted by the sergeant In charge of a Royal Northwest Mounted Police detach- ment for 'killing a Buffalo without authority.' Kadford produced his i r mil, which had been signed by the Minister of Agriculture for the Pro- vince of Alberta. The sergeant ex- the sudden order of last night casiontd no surprise. The liquor now <-n thtir hands will go buck to the brewers ivnd distillers from whom it was bought on the understanding that what. over renamed on Imnd when the burs were closed would be Uken back.
