USE OF TIMBER IN THE WEST.
SECRETARY scHURz CoNFERRrNG WITH
REPRESENTATIVES

WASHINGTON, May 26. Secretary Schurz
is quite restive under the legislation of
Congress last winter in regard to his pro-
posed timber reforms in the West. To-
day he called conference at his office of
Senator Booth, Grover, Slater, Hill, of Col
orado, and Messrs. Belford. Daggett, Ma
ginnis and others from the Territories. He
submitted draft of a bill providing for the
sale of timber without the land and Great
ing number of foresters at salary of
$4,000 year each to take care of the land
and to see the timber Is reproduced, and
in manner adopting the German system
of forest supervision. Most of the gentle
men present took part in the discussion,
which covered wide range Seine thought
it would be better to sell the land outright.
Others agreed that the mountains should
be held as timber land. Several thought
the proposed system too cumbersome and
costly and doubted its adoption by Con-
gress. All agreed that the wants of the
settlers must be provided for, and that as
the government has made no arrangements
to sell the land the timber must be taken
for mining and farming in some way. All
agreed further that the depredations by
settlers were trifiing compared to the vast
areas devastated by forest fires, often the
result of carelessness and wantonness. The
Secretary expressed his qualification at the
interest taken and suggested that the Sen
ators and Representatives. should take the
matter under consideration during the re-
cess of Congress aud at a meeting to be
held next session, endeavor to agree upon
some legislation just at once to the settler
and TO the government.

Trifiing with Health.

Man is the only animal who violates
the laws of health knowingly, and yet
continues the bad practice. An illus
tration CT this moral and physical eccen-
tricity is afforded by the habits of
Thackeray.
Unlike Dickens, he took no regular
walking exercise, and, being regardless
of the laws of health, suffered in conse-
quence. In reply to one who asked
him If he had ever received the best
medical advice, his reply was:
"What is the use of advice if you
don't follow it? They tell me not to
drink, and I do drink; they tell NE not
to smoke, and do smoke; they tell me
not to eat, and do eat. In short, do
everything that [ am desired not to 90,
and, therefore, what am to expect?"
And so one morning he was found,
like DR.. Chalmers, in the sleep of
death, with his arms beneath his head,
after one of his violent attacks of ILL
ness, to be mourned by his mother
and daughters, who formed his house
hold, and by a wider public beyond,
which had learned to love him through
his admirable works.

The Cat and the Bees

Charles Kaiser, who has the only hive
of bees in town, says that when he first
got his colony, his old cats curiosity
was much excited in regard to the
doings of the little insects, the like of
which she had never before seen. At
first she watched their comings and
goings at distance. She then fiat
tened herself upon the ground and crept
along toward the hive, with tail hori-
zontal and quivering. It was clearly
evident that she thought the bees some
new kind of game. Finally she took up
a position at the entrance of the hive,
and when bee came in or started out
made dab at it with her paws.
This went on for q time without at
tracing the attention of the inhabitants
of the hive. Presently, however, old
Tabby struck and crushed bee on the
edge Of the opening to the hive. The
smell of the crushed bee alarmed and
enraged the whole colony. Bees by
the score poured forth and darted into
the fur of the astonished cat. Tabby
rolled herself in the grass, splitting.
spluttering, biting, clawing and squat
ing as cat never squalled before. She
appeared mere bail of furs and bees
as she rolled and tumbled about. She
was at length hauled away from the
hive with a garden rake, at the cost Of
several stings to her rescuer.
Even after she had been taken to q
distant part of the grounds the bees
stuck to Tabby's fur, and about once
in two minutes she would utter an uu-
earthly "yowl' and bounce a full yard
into the air. On coming down she
would try to scratch her ear, when a
sting on the back would cause her to
turn succession of somersaults and
give vent to running fire of squalls.
Like the parrot that was left alone with
the monkey, old Tabby had dreadful
time.
Two OF three days after the adventure
Tabby was caught by the owner, who
took her by the neck and threw her
downnear the beehive. No sooner did she
strike the ground than she gave dread
full squat, and at a single bound reach
ed the top OF the fence full six feet in
height. There she chung for amoment,
with a tail as big as rolling-pin, when,
with another bound and squall, she was
out of sight, and did not again put in
all appearance for over a week.-V1r-

A LEGEND OF HARVEST.
10 long ago that history pays

So long ago that history pays
No heed nor record of how long,
Back in the lovely. dreamy days.
The days of story and OF song,
BEFORE the world had crowded grown,
While opg on earth was hard to find,
and half the eartf had never known
The forms and faces of mankind,
When lust as now the years would keep
Their terms of SHOWS and suns and flowers,
If CHANGED that Summer dropt asleep,
One morning, in field OF flowers.
And while the warm weeks came and fed,
In all their tender wealth OF charm,
She slept with beauteous golden head
Laid softly on her weary arm.
tqHt ay "a i a.
She did not hear the waving trees.
The warbling brook she did not hear,
Nor yet the velvet-coated bees
That doomed abo ut her rosy ear.
I'm many yellow breezy mass,
The rich wheat ripeped far away,
And glittering on the fragrant grass,
Her silver sickle idly lay.
But then at last one noontide hour.
.gorgeoua moth. while lowering by,
Mistook her sweet mouth tor Hover,
And Summer walked with startled cry.
She rose, in anxious wonder. now,
TO gaze upon the heightened wheat,
And saw its plenteous tassels bow
Dtad-ripe below tire su.try heat,
Half crazed, she wandered east and west
Amid the peaceful spacious cline.
Until at length, with painting breast,
She stood before old Father Time.
With tears of shame she told him all,
While pointing to the wheat unknown,
And said "What power shall make it fall
Ere Autumns bitter winds have bloWnw
Tnen Father Time, with laughter gay,
Bowed all his frame, and crooked his knees.
And tossed his white beard like the spray
That crowns the crests Of Wintry seas.
"Oh, daughter, cheer your heart! " lie cried;
The wheat will fall ere falls the night;
We two shall NOW it, side by side,
And reap it in the stars pale light"
So Summer cleared her brow of gloom,
and forth with Father Time she went,
And, haggard Age by Youth i'll bloom.
Above the tawny wheat they bent.
Ere fall of night the harvest fell;
But since that season. fair and blithe,
AS ancient annals love to tell,
Old Father Time has borne scythe!

knowing the lines nearly by heart, they
