Is one of the three Thibetan carpets known to exist all of them being at present in Mr. Scotts Tradition has it that carpossession. pets were once woven In Thibet. But for many years none has been known to be in existence. When, however, the first Sikh Maharajah, Golab Singh, was Installed over Kashmir, tribute was sent to him from Thibet, and among the gifts were three beautiful carpets, all of the same size and of similar design. For the best part of 100 years these lay in the palace Tosha Khana or storehouse in Kashmir. Recently they were sold at public auction in Srinagar, where Mr. Scott purchased one and later obtained the others from two Indian nobles who had secured them at the auction. The carpets, like the Thibetan prayer-mats, show Chinese taste blended with Thibetan symbolism, and were doubtless made In Thibet by Chinese weavers; Just as the carpets and mats show the Influence of China, a large proportion of Thibetan metal-wor- k strongly reflects Indian culture, as from time immemorial the Newaris, or mechanics of Nepal, In India, have worked In metal for the Thibetans.

CREAMERIES y expedition which was sent Into Thibet after the British, under Sir Francis had departed from Younghusband, Lhassa, the Lamaistic Holy City. A part of the Chinese expedition returned home by way of India, disposing of its loot to Parsee or Hindu curiosity dealers on the way. Thus many great rarities were for a time obtainable by connoisseurs, lucky engugh to be on the spot. And of these, Mr. Scott, as results show, was, thanks to his knowledge and experience, one of the most lucky. This Sir Francis Younghusband was bom In India and served as British political agent In various parts of that country. In 1903 he was appointed British commissioner for negotiating with China a settlement of relations between India and Thibet. In 1904 he was at the head of on expedition that forced its way to Lhassa. Thibet has always been a land of mystery and is yet, for that matter. The region is one of the least known places of earth. It is there that an American expedition is searching for the missing link, the earliest form of man. To the south of it lie the Himalayas and Mount Everest, as everyone knows. Is the highest peak on the earths surface (29,000 feet.) It has never been ascended and an expedition Is now making a careful and persist ent attempt to reach its summit. Thibet itself appears to be the roof of the world; it is the most elevated country on the globe. The northern part Is believed to have an average elevation of 15,000 feet. What that means can be Imagined by anyone who has climbed Pikes Peak in Colorado, which is 14,155 feet high. The people( are of the Mongol stock. The population Is believed to approximate 3,500,000. There are supposed to be 50,000 lamas. These lamas are devoted to celibacy and live in lamaseries, or monasteries, of which there are said to be 3,000. Many of these lamaseries are of great size, housing thousands. Polyandry prevails among the people. China has exercised a rule of sorts over Thibet since the Eighteenth century, more especially as to Its foreign relations. Government appears to be largely local. For ages the chief authority rested with the Grand Lama, whose capital was Lhassa, a city of about 25,000 people. In consequence of the 1904 British expedition under Sir Francis at least a part of the authority was transferred to the Grand Lama near Shigatse. There of Tashl-lunpIs also a Chinese resident in Thibet. This British expedition forced various concessions in trade and in the foreign relations of the country, which for a century had been practically a closed nation. Thibet Is principally famous, perhaps, as the seat of that form of Buddhism known as Lamaism. - .

Miss Clara Schmid, an exceptionally pretty Immigrant girl, still in her teens, told immigration official the story, part of the time in French, but mostly In German, with now and then a few words in broken English. Then she told how Ruby had saved her mothers life when she was attacked by an Intoxicated man. The customs Inspectors told the girl all dogs of the wolf family (Ruby is a German police dog coming under that head) are detained 48 hours longer.
