Forest Destruction.
fChicago Current.1


The Northwestern Lumberman vig-
orously defends the operators in the
lumber business from the charge that
they are reckless tree destroyers, with
cruel and relentless vigor cutting from
the ground every tree, and shrub, and
bush, with the one answering purpose
of accomplishing desolation, producing
rainless areas and annual floods. It is
we'll to haye the lumberman's side
stated, for no doubt far too many
crimes of tree slaughter have been
charged to him. His defense is that
operators only select merchantable
lumber. Trees are not hacked down
indiscriminately; underbrush is not
torn up by the roots, and trees and
brush heaps are always left, IN sufficient
quantity, to woo and retain bountiful
supply of needed moisture.
The Lumberman suggests, too, that
our rivers, long before the axman be-
gan his work upon primeval forests,
oyerAowed their banks repeatedly, as
the Indians and early settlers testify.
There is much force in this defense.
In Minnesosa, when the pine trees are
cleared away, a thick growth of scrub
oak comes up mysteriously, SO that
nature supplies a remedy there, at least.
In Maine the young pines are not de-
stroyed. In many localities, however,
no other growth takes the place of
the destroyed forest. and desolation
follows. Persia furnishes notable in
stance of the sterile sequence of reck
less forest destruction.

Enormous Literary Earnings.
IChicago Tribune.

Some interesting figures are given in
London Truth of Jan. concerning the
literary earnings of well-known authors.
ers. Disraei (the younger) made $780,,
900, Byron $115,000. Lord Macaulay
earned 100000 on his history, getting
three-fourths of the net profits. Thiers
and Lamartine made similar sums by
their histories. Thackeray never made
more than $4,000 by one novel. Sir
Walter Scott was paid $550.000 for
eleven novels of three volumes each, and
nine volumes of "Tales of My Land
lord" For one novel he received $780,
900, and between November, 1926, and
June, 1927, he received $130,000 for
literary work. Lord Lytton is said to
have made 100000 by h novels;
Dickens, it has been computed, ought to
have been making $4,000 year for
the three years prior to the publication
of Nicholas Nickleby" and Trollope in
twenty years made $350.0O0. The fol-
lowing prices were paid for single
works: George Eliot's "Romola," $780,
900; SCOTS "Waverly," $4,000; SCOTS

American Labor.
G"Gath" in New York Tribune. I

l"Gath IN New Ork tribune.
When we have what we call dull
times in the United States, we are on a
tremendous boom compared to almost
any other nation in the world. The en-
terprises being carried out in time of
stagnatiol. here would amount to great
operations in such states as Prussia,
Austria or even France. We do not
perceive that nearly the whole United
States is going onward at the same
time, each one of the multitude of
towns suggesting, developing or adding
something, and when there is compara-
tive lethargy here another kind of life
begins, which ought to be truer part of
our life, the artistic cultivation of the
people.
The influence of labor-saving ma
chinery to accumulate goods and pro-
duce stoppages is now generally per-
ceived, though the knowledge is not ap-
piled. Judge Kelley intimates that it
will be necessary for the manufacturing
operatives to work a shorter day and
spend the rest of the time in self-im-
provement. Mr.. Bookwalter thinks
that these gluts indicate the retiring of
pattern making machinery in a little
while, that kind of machinery where o
pattern duplicates itself almost auto
matically. He says that the finest work
in the world is the work of the human
hand, in which the eastern nations ex-
eel, and that it is proved by the fact
that we send nothing of beauty to Japan
or India, while we greedily buy from
them the vases and other articles to
which our taste has risen. 1t might be
blessed day if labor, instead of being
collected in great shops to do given
thing and do nothing else for years and
years, would have its own little ateliers
close to the family life, and, rs in the
days of our parents produce the furni-
ture, ETC., specimens of which are now
rarities and prizes.

{ culiar Business.

culiar Business.
[San Francisco Chronicle
Shouting for side-show is not the
most aesthetic occupation in the world,
but it is one of the healthiest, and it
has other advantages which attract the
class of young men engaged in it. In
yesterdays rain the reporter had a
talk with one of the outdoor men of one
of the recent additions to the city's
varied attractions in the amusement
line, and that was what he said about
the shouter's business. When asked
if that was all he could say for the
business he replied: "Oh, no; it gives
a man chance to travel, broadens his
views and gives him an understanding
of human nature for which no other oc-
cupation affords as great an oppor-
tunity. This rain has knocked busi-
ness for this day, but give me one
hours sunshine and [ will start in
again with the enthusiasm of a man
who has just entered the business"
"In the east a good shouter gets $25 a
week, and they advertise and are adver-
tised for just as for any other class of
talent. 1t is regular business there
and well followed. Shouters are gen
orally decent fellows, but as their busi-
ness is often precarious they sometimes
will accept situation with an unreli-
able Snowman, and that, perhaps, is
one thing which has prejudicel so many
people against our trade. But shout
ing is our business, and it does not
make much difference to us whether it
is the amphibious and carnivorous dog
or q panorama of the Holy Land. It is
not an easy business to learn, but when
once man becomes accustomed to it
he can shout before the crowned heads
with the dignity and ease of q fish
peddler In the most familiar alley on
his business route.
1T is a great business in one way.
You see, we don't have to pack any ap-
paratus or carry any wardrobe. A
man can start on a moments notice.
But hotel men are not apt to think any
more of traveller because he has no
baggage. That is the way it goes one
thing balances another. There are ad-
vantages and drawbacks, ups and
downs. The worst calamity of all, of
course, is the failing of the voice. Did
you ever see a shouter who couldn't
shout? Well, he is the most melan-
choly man you ever will see. He pines
away and dies. Before dissolution
everybody abuses him. The curiosities
whose praises he has sung for years re-
fuse to recognize him, and the boys
who steal in under the tents make him
the butt of all their jokes. He is the
embodiment of misery. You can knock
him down with straw. Try it."
At this point the shouter paused.
He had ratified off his story of the
strange business in much the same
style he would have assumed on his
box in front of the show He did not
appear the least exhausted, but the re-
porter found some difficulty in keeping
track of the ideas elucidated by the
voluble Snowman.

A Knife for the witches.
ATLANTA Constitution. !


A policeman was searching negro
house in Campbell's block yesterday,
and turning over a pillow on the bed
found caseknife under it.
What is this knife here for?" he
asked. sternly.
Gimme datl" excitedly shouted the
negro woman, who was in the room.
Oats minel"
What is it under here for, asked the
officer.
"Ter keep witches from riden' me-"
WHAT
"Yesusr; 'cepin' I has dat knife under
my head de witches ride me all night.
I hear folks say if you put sitter on.
de foot er de bed de witches can't
ride yer; but I tried dat-sifter don't
under yer head ter keep de witches off.
If knife amt sharp, old witch light on
yer and she ride yer. If knife is sharp
she can't light on yer. Sometimes I
lay and hear old witch come in de
winder. She go zing, zing, zipl but
she can't light on me, cause got de
knife under my head"
The officer was taken back, but began
to understand the situation when the
woman showed him that all the beds in
the house were supplied with knives to
keep the old witch off. The woman
said the white folks told her the "old
witch" was the nightmare, when her
blood did not circulate, but the colored
people did not believe that, but thought
they were ridden in their sleep by an
old witch. An inquiry developed the
fact that the superstition exists to a
very considerable extent among negroes.

I have seen Napoleon III at the PIN
nacle of his hollow splendor. From
the German picket line on August 2,
1870, heard the distant cheering on
the Spicherenberg that greeted him
and the lad whom he brought from
Metz to receive that day his @bap-
tism of fire." Again I saw him
ON the morning after Sedan as
the broken man-broken in power,
in prestige, in health, in spirits
sat with Bismarck on the grass
plot in front of the weaver's cot
tage en- the Donchery road. Next
morning ! witnessed his departure into
his Wilhelmshohe captivity. I have
seen him doddering about Brighton,
and strolling under the beech lees that
encircle Chiselhurst common. And for
the last time of all / saw that stolid,
care-worn face as it lay on the raised
pillow of the bier in the broad corridor
of Camden place; and when the face
was no more visible 1 witnessed the
coffin laid down in the little chapel
among the Chiselhurst elm trees.
I knew the boy of the empire when
the shackles of the empire had fallen
from his limbs and he was no longer
buckram creature, but lively, natural
lad. My acquaintance endured into
his manhood. When the twilight was
falling on the rolling veldt of Zululand,
and his days work in the staff tent was
done, he liked, as it seemed to me, to
gossip with one who knew the other
side of the picture, about the early days
OF the Franco German war-a war that
had wrought at once his ruin and his
emancipation. And finally, po gal
lant lad I saw him dimly through a,s
the very last of him, as he lay there
dead on the blood-stained sward by the
Ityotyosi river, with a calm, proud
smile on his face, and his body pierced
by countless assegai stabs.
Men have called his death ignoble.
Petty as was the quarrel, wretched as
was the desertion that wrought his fate,
I call him, rather, happy in the oppor-
tunity of his death. Had he lived,
what of artificiality, what of hollow
unreality might there not have been in
store for him. AS it was, he had moved
in the world live ghost. Better than
this, surely, to be dead hero-to end

young face gallantly to his assailants,

One OF Farragut's Men,.
T"Gath's" Interview.l


Zone of the best of them was Thorn
ton Jenkins, who for good while was
Farragut's chief of staff and feet cap
tain. Jenkins, like Farragut, was
southern man, and was good deal up
braided for remaining with the govern
ment; but he had simple, dauntless
heart, and neither Farragut nor him
self cared one cent what they said in the
south about their conduct. Jenkins is
still living at Washington, and is lame
from wound that killed another very
distinguished officer during the war"
The name of this officer I forgot,
though Mr.. Davis told it to me with the
following anecdote:
"This man." said he, twas one Of the
most wonderful men in Farragut's feet.
He went among the rebels by the name
of 'The Black Devil of the Mississippi
because, when the government ordered
the vessels at large to be painted lead
color, he kept his black; and wherever
there was a fight you could see that
black hull going in as if it was the child
of war. One day she'll struck lot of
cutlasses which were lying on deck, and
one of those cutlasses gave Jenkins the
wound which has lamed him ever since;
and another inflicted mortal wound
on The Black Devil of the Missis sippi,'
who was taken to the hospital, and the
last words that he uttered are still re-
membered in the navy for their sweet
ness. When a naval officer or COM
mander visits an admiral, and he gets
down in his launch to leave, he is apt
to loiter minute or two before he says
the last word. Then the word almost
always is: Well, admiral, guess I'll
shove Off This man, as he lay dying,
opened his eyes for the last time and
looked around him on the friendly faces
of his associates, and said: Well, I
guess I'll shove off, and then died."
