Al the recent forestry meeting in Phlla-
oelphia it was stated that the volume OF
water in the Schu!ykill River had dinnin-
izhed nearly one-half during the past fifty
wears. the d%ininution being attributed to
the merciless destruction Of the forests
along the ri yer and its Tributaries. Whether
the assertion is strictly true there Is, Of
course. 10 means Of a~scertaining, but as it
is Philatelphia's source oi water supply a
serious Girlinution has been observed OF
recent years. 1t is believed that the con-
tinuad cutting away Of the forest trees, az
is now the case. will result in further dimi-
mutton. Clear as is this fact, it viii require
average tiller OF the soil that it is suct or
to induce him to ioregu the telling of his
timber and plant trees instead. But the
time i= coming when forestry, in a scientific
sense, will be better understood and apprt-
ciated, and farmers and others learn that
nature will not permit her avs to be
violated with i%mpun;ty. The sooner that
conviction is forced npon the general pub
lie mind, the sooner viii the suicidal course
now bel pursued in regard to the forests
OF the country be abandoned. The Forestry
Congress il doing good work in this direc-
ton, but it is too exclusive inits character,
too scientific, anddoes not reach the masses
OF the people. The only edu GATOR for the
people is the press and that has too long
neglected the discussion { this important
suhiact.

THE Staniords have evidently deter
mined to put their great wealth to good
use while they are in the land OF the living.
Having lost their so%n-their only child and
~heir-they have begun to employ their
millions in the establishment Of sensible
bene:actions. A Washington cOrraspOn-
dent gives the followin! account Of Mr..
Stanford's latest benefaction: Mrs. Stan.
forG, vile Of Senator Stanford, has pur-
chased ia Albany, New York, the old
house which her family occupied prior to
her marriage and also a large piece OF prop.
erty adjoining it. On this ground it is her
intention to build a fire-proof building
which will afford a home during the work
ing hours OF the day to the chill !ren Of
widows ard dependent females who are
compelled to labor for a living. 1t may be
that enough homeless women will be cared
for in the Institution to attend to the
wants Of the children. On a visit to New
York not long ago Mrs. Stanford was i'm
pressed with the good results accomplished
by an institution OF this kind, and, being
anxious TO do some act Of charity for the
poor people Of her early home, she de.
termined to carry out this project in Al
bany. The building and ground will cost
about $3.50. 900, and the charity will be
maintained solely at Mrs. Stanford's ex-
pense."

REGARDING the question Vi increasing
the salar OF the teachers in the public
schools. which is now being agitated, there
is some little diversity of opinion. Allare,
or appear to be, willing to make an in
crease, but the Board of Commissioners.
whose duty it is to attend to the matter.
find themselves in IA dilemma. The school
faculties are not at present adequate for
the demands Of the population, and they
naturally regard that as tho question of
paramount Importance. OF course the in
crease OF buildings has been provided for
by a fund that could not be diverted to
any other purpose, yet it will not be sufBci-
ent. The only way to meet the demand for
an increase Of salery for the teachers will
be TO have an addition to the school
tag. It is estimated that an increase Of
half a mill will be sufficient for the present,
but whether the Commissioners are willing
to recommend this is still an open ques-
ton. The sum seems small, and there is
no doubt but that the people will cheerfully
vote that or any other amount that may
be necessary to maintain the efficiency Of
tie schools.

drawn for the several amosantS.
The Committee on Streets aud Alleys
recommended that the petition of DIR.
Hough, in regard to altering the grade
of Granite and Montana streets, be not

recommendation by stating that it would
be impossible to change the grade without
causing complaint from other property
owners in the vicinity. The report was
adopted. ,

Iieved that the Marshai's suspensions and

Of sustaining the Marshal when his acts

erai. At the ED OF half an hour Officer
Jordan was reinstate,l by o vote OF 5 to 2,
