April 5.—Rhodes's will Is spoken of ns the "Greatest Testament since Julius Caesar's." It is the sole topic of conversation in society and political circles today. America's share in the scholarships arranged for comes in for special notice. Considerable amazement is expressed that the will gives Canada only nine of these scholarships, and completely ignores Brit' ish Columbia and other provinces. The Manchester Guardian points out as another result that Rhodess's bequests will be iiolitical and not educational. Englishmen realize, although this has 38 W. MARKET, WILRESIAMI.

According to Tlie Dully Telegraph, tin1 will of Cecil Rhodes deals with a total of £CD,000,000. Felt Insists that he was ulone with Collins when the murder was committed. Nevertheless the police believe that tlie hoy has not told all of his story and are working oil the theory that others were Implicated. Behind the crime"is a story of moral degeneracy that has few parallels. Collins, according to the police, hud a number of the hoys in the neighborhood completed under bis influence and express the belief that his deith was the culmination of a plot -011 tlie part of the boys to kill the old man and thus rid themselves of malign Influence.

London, Aprll.5.—United States Ambassador Choate was the first public of Rhodes's scheme for international education as the means of furthering the bonds of Anglo-American unity.
