WASHINGTON.

Secretary Window says there was moth
ing in the report of the treasury inyestigat-
ing committee that reflected in any way
upon ex-Secretary Shermsn's administra-
tion Of the treasury. Window says he
keeps the report secret because he wants
to make reforms without unnecessary
commotion among the clerks. Twenty APP
pointments will be made in the treasury
department July l.
The last Congress passed an act in the
form Of an amendment to the sundry civil
bill appropriating $4,000 to DO used under
the direction Of the treasury for the inspec-
ton of cattle shipped abroad. A certificate
was to be given to the shipper to the effect
that cattle sent abroad were not infected
with pleuro-pneumonia or other contagious
disease. The appropriation becomes avail
able July l. Assistant Secretary French,
who has such matters in charge, said to-
day that they would appoint officers al the
principal ports to inspect cargoes Of live
cattle going abroad and give the certificate
contemplated by the law. They proposed
TO do all that could be done with the amount
appropriated.
By eking out the slender appropriation
the fast railway mail service was gradual
" extended as far South as Atlanta, the
fast morning mail from New York Overtak-
ing on the route the fast mail from this city.
1t is the purpose of the postofice depart
ment to extend the fast mail to Jacksonville
and New Orleans as soon as practicable,
but it is not unlikely that until Congress
makes more liberal appropriations the fast
mails via Atlanta may be stopped at
Richmond or diverted to the coast line via
Charleston. The managers Of the railway
from Richmond to Atlanta have applied TO
the department for increased compensation,
and say that unless it be given they will
probably be compelled to take off the fast
mail train between those two points. The
postmaster general has replied that the
amount Of the present appropriation will
not permit an increase Of pay, and urges
the railway authorities not to take OF the

A Terrible Ride,

Southern Knight: Prairie fires Oc-
cur frequently, and tidings of such
events with narrow escapes or terri
bic deaths amid the flames reach Us
from time to time, and thus, in a
measure, serve to impress us with the
terrors of the scene:
These fires and forest fires, which in
the East are as terrible as the prairie
fires Of the West, are confined to the
season when the leaf ess, sapless trees
and the dry grass afford fuel for rap
id blaze. The oil regions have their
peculiar danger, not confined to any
one season. Carelescness, fire in a
dwelling, a hundred accidents, may
light up the great stores of infiamma-
bic material, and bursting the tanks,
send it through wide district with
all the destructive power of torrent
of lava from a volcanoes mouth. The
dangers are not confined to human
carelessness. From some cause, either
the large metal surface of the tanks,
or some other cause, Oil-tanks are very
often struck by lightning and it may
be well to consider whether large els
terms underground would not avoid
this risk.
A few years ago tank at Trout
man, Pa, containing no less than
twenty-five thousand barrels of oil,
was struck by the electric fluids from
the clouds, and burst into flames. The
burning oil ran down through the
town, destroying it, and setting fire to
oil-wells and tanks, and filling the
roads with 3 seething torrent Of fire.

A Walnut Story.

Chicago Times: The smartest
Texan, in fact, the smartest farmer l
have ever met, is old Sim Graves, who
lives on 1000-acre farm west of Wax
ahatchie, in Central Texas. After
Mr.. Graves had shown me his cattle
and cotton, he took me over to see his
woods.
'We.l, what of it?' 1 said as he
pointed to 10-acre forest.
''What of it?" Why them's
black walnuts, sir. Ten acres of them.
Planted 'em myself, ten years ago.
See, they are nine inches through.
Good trees, eh II
And sure enough there was ten
acres OF hand-planted black walnut
trees. They stood about twelve feet
aparn190 in the acre, in all 1000 trees.
Well, how did you getyOur money
back ~ asked.
''Black walnuts are worth - 80 per
bushel, amt they 2" I'll get 400
bushels this year. That's $1,000. A
800 an acre is good rent for land
worth SIS an acre, amt it p
"Well, what else?' / inquired,
growing interested.
1.-The lIees," continued Mr.. Graves,
"are growing an inch a year. When
they are twenty years old they will be
nineteen inches though. A black wal
nut tree nineteen inches through is
worth SIS. My 1000 trees ten years
from now will be worth $4,000. If /
don't want to cut them all, l can cut
half of them, and then raise bushel
of walnuts to the tree-that is, get
$500 year for the crop. Two hun
dred and fifty dollars an acre is a fair
rent for SIS land. amt it 2"

Calico and the Telescope.

When the great Italian astronomer
was on visit to Venice in 1909, he
\ heard that Prince Maurice of Nassau
had been presented by Dutchman
with an instrument which had the
curious power of making distant OBJ
jects seem near to the observer. Cali
leo at once set to work with the object
of making such an instrument. Two
spectacle glasses, both plain on one
side, but having its other side convex,
and the other side concave, were fixed
one at each end of a metal tube. On
placing his eye to the concave glass he
saw objects magnified and brought
nearer His instrument only magni-
fed three times, but when shown in
Venice it created great interest.
Crowds flocked to the inventor
house to see the curious toy; and the
Senate caused it to be known that
they would like to possess it. Cali
leo at once presented them with the
telescope, and received substantial re-
wards in return.
Sisturi, who also constructed one of
these instruments, assembled the tower
of st. Mark at Venice, in order to use
it without hindrance from curious
citizens. But the people in the streets,
observing him with his telescope,
mounted the tower and deprived him
of it until they had satisfied their Gu
riosity. They even wished to secure
the same pleasure for their friends the
next day Sisturi, in order to avoid
them, left Venice the same night.i
Calico was the most skillfnl maker
of these instruments, and at last he
constructed one which magnified more
than thirty times, with which he made
some important discoveries connected
with the moon.

The Virginia Campaign.

The Virginia Readjusters will begin
their State canvass at once in the East
err shore counties and through the
Southwest. 1t is stated that the Re-
adjusters are working among the col
ored voters throughout the State to
prevent the call Of the State conven-
ton of that party. Mr.. John T. Lewis,
chairman of the Republican central
COMMITTEES, claims to have considerable
influence with that committee, and he
il credited with having said that he
could have beaten the Wickham wing
before the committee last year had lie
exerted himself. Gen. Wickham and
all those In his party in sympathy
with him are determined that ticket
shall be pnt up. Gen. Malone con-
cedes that Gen. Wickham can give
him a great deal of trouble in this
canvass.

How congressman Steal.

Washington correspondence of the
Philadelphia Times: ''Here's Tom
Jones. He's a member Of Congress
and chairman of a committee. He
tell. his messenger OF his clerk to have
that desk sent to his houss-he has so
much writing to do at night that he
must have it. Do you think that desk
gets back to the capitol when that man
leaves Congress? Not much. Then
Dick Roe is a chief clerk somewhere.
A handsome drop-light, worth twen-
ty or thirty dollars, perhaps, is in his
Office. He says to his messenger /:
Henry, take that dPop-light to my
house, have got to use it for week
or two, and then you can fetch it
back Does it ever get back, though {?
Hardly Then a Congressman may
have in his committee-room a 800
clock. At the close of the session he
orders the clock to be sent 10 his
house, for fear somebody may steal it
during the recess Does that clock
ever tick in that committeeman
again! Not tick"

Clean NpUsDaUprS.

San Francisco CORES. Herald and
PIeSbyter: One of our San Francisco
dailies boasts that it pays nearly $1,000
month for Geographic dispatches.
This it calls enterprise. But what
does it amount to? If there is cas-
ualty or a crime or scandal to-day,
in any part of the land, full account
| of it must be flashed over the wires
tonight regardless of expense. If
there is a quarrel between the Presi-
dent and a United States Senator, ev-
erybOdy who knows anything about
it, or pretends to. must be interviewed
and all this gossip telegraphed to give
us an appetite for breakfast. Every
| morning we have solid columns, in
the smallest Of type, filled with the
latest evidences that this is fallen
world; that there are dishonest men
and frail women in other cities as well
| as our own. RumOrs, speculations, muir
ders, suicides and Bob IngersOl's lee
lures, our journalists must have, fresh
and full, at cost of $1,000 a month.
But the General Assembly of the
Presbyterian Church which has now
been in session for nearly week, has
not vet been even named in these dis
patches. One blatant infidel and his
utterances are more important, in the
estimation of those who prepare East
ern news for the Pacific Coast, than
900 ministers and elders, representing
nearly million of Christians.
Good people are getting disguised
with this kind of enterprise. They
ask, with some show of reason, why
can't the papers tell us something of
what the good people are trying to do I?
1t is well to be orthodox in regard to
the depravity of human nature, and
no reader of the secular newspaper
can fail to be; but we would like to
have some intimatiOn by telegraph,
that there is something besides sin and
misery in the would. | believe the
time is coming when public sentiment
on this subject will penetrate even the
atmosphere of cOnceit that develops
the agents Of the Associated Press and
the managing editors of our great pa
pers. When that time comes We shall
have newspapers that will mirror the
worlds progress, and instruct and ed
| ify their readers-newspapers that
will not cater to the tastes of the ig-
norant and the vicious, but will try to
make the wise wiser, and the good
better. There are already few such
papers in the land. And in the new
way in which they have entered all
first-class journals must follow, or
sink to the level of the Police Gdzette.
Christianity is a growing power in
the land, let skeptics and scoffers say
what they may and the civilization
it is introducing will demand, ere
long, a different style Of journalism.
We expect the daily newspapers of
the future, with its marvellous enter
prise, to be a most efficient ally Of the
pulpit in elevating and purifying the
world.
