TUTICORIN 51 TWACHTMAN is delicate green in color, with brush- like tufts of yellow hairs on several of the segments.

TUTUILA, an island of the Samoan group, belonging to the United States under the treaty of Dec. 2, 1899, between the United States. Great Britain, and Germany. For several years the United States was anxious to acquire possession of the harbor of Pago Pago, on this is- land, for a naval and coaling station. In 1872 the local authorities ceded the harbor for this purpose, and in 1878 a treaty was signed in Washington by which the United States was given the right to establish at that harbor a sta- tion for coaling, naval supplies, freedom of trade, commorcial treatment as a favored nation, and extra-territorial con- sular jurisdiction. This harbor was occupied by the United States in 1898, with the purpose of utilizing its advan- tages as a coaling and supply station. Tutuila, the island upon whose coast this harbor is located, has a population (1916) of 6,185, and an area of 77 square miles. TVER, a province of Russia, sur- rounded by the provinces of Novgorod, Jaroslav, Vladimir, Moscow, Smolensk, and Pskov; area, 24,975 square miles; pop. about 2,500,000. From the Vol- chonski Forest, a range of thickly wooded limestone hills in the W., offsets run- ning betv/een lakes and swamps intersect almost the whole of Tver. In the Ostashkov district are the headwaters of the Volga, Diina, and Msta. Tver is drained by the Volga and its affluents. The Volga is connected with the Msta by the canal of Vishnij Volotchok, and by the Mologa and the Tichvin canal with the Tichvinka and Sias, which run into Lake Ladoga. There are 100 lakes in Tver, of which the largest are Seliger, Ochvat- Shadenje, and Steresh. One-fourth of the surface is forest. Potatoes and flax are increasingly cultivated. The chief occupations are the cutting and floating of wood, and the preparation of tar, pitch, and turpentine. TVER, a city and capital of the Rus- sian province of the same name, is on both sides of the Volga at its confluence with the Tverza and the Tmaka, 110 miles N. W. of Moscow. It has fine streets and squares, a former imperial palace, a cathedral, and many churches, several monasteries, a priests' college, a gymnasium, a technical school, a cavalry cadets' school, a teachers' seminary, a ladies' college, several benevolent institu- tions, and a theater. There were before the World War many factories. Its position on the Petrograd-Moscow rail- way and on the river Volga gave Tver great transit traffic, which was chiefly in corn and metal wares. Entirely burnt in 1763, Tver was speedily rebuilt by Catharine II., who has here a monument. Pop. about 65,000. TWACHTMAN, JOHN HENRY, an American landscape painter, born in Cincinnati in 1853.
