BUFFALO's DANGER.
The System of Petroleum Pipes
Causes Much Uneasiness to the
Citizens.

BUFFALO, n. Y, Jan. Efficiently
explosions of, and havoc wrought by,
naphtha gas in the sewers of Rochester
and Binghamton have caused an inquiry
to be made regarding the danger in this
city from similar sources. So far as is
learned not much fear of naphtha need
be entertained, but in the language of
leading oil man, Buffalo is menaced
by danger almost as great as a naph-
tina pipe line. The petroleum pipe lines
at East Buffalo run parallel, across and
all around the small sewers in that re-
gion, the contents of which are finally
discharged into the trunk sewer.
Should break occur at any point vast
quantity of crude Oil would be dis
charged into the sewer system of the
city in very short time. and the result
might be series of disasters which
would cause the Rochester calamity to
sink into inSignificance. Crude oil ex-
posed to the air will become reduced
one-fourth in volume by the escape of
the light and volatile gases. Just i'm
agine 10000 barrels Of crude oil flowing
into sewer at East Buffals from a
broken pipe, and thence making its way
in the entire sewer system of the BUSH
ness heart of the city, pouring its gases
into cellars and apartments of the house
through SINKS, WaShbowlS and defective
sewer connection, and finally coming
into contact with the gas jets. Do you
not imagine what reign of terror
would enSue?''

In Memory Of the Billiards. Dead.


1t is pleasant to note that the courage
and unselfish heroism displayed by the
teachers and others during the late
blizzard, in which so many lives were
lost, is to be recognized, and that con-
tributiOnS are being raised to relieve
those of them who have been crippled
and exhausted by their work in helping
to save the pupils committed to their
care from death. The state superin-
tendent of Nebraska has issued
a circular to every county
superintendent to forward the
names of all teachers under their super
vision who persisted during the dread
full storm or distinguished themselves
by heroic actions. Some of the quiet
little women teachers displayed such
wise forethought and unselfSh devotion
to duty as makes the noted chlvairy of
past ages turn pale by contrast. Par
entail love may always be counted upon,
but these teachers, hired by the month
only to teach their children, showed
they stood in place of parents not only
as to authority of position, but as to
risldng their own lives in taking care of
them.

OUR PINE LANDS.

Though the devastation wrought of
late years in the pine forests of Mime
sofa has been enormous, there are yet
vast tracts of valuable pine land exist
ing in the state. These are for the
most part Oh the Indian reservations in
the northern part of the state. OF
course the spectators and lumbermen
have for some time been looking long
ingly toward these lands, and have been
casting about for some means of getting
possession of them. On the Red Lake
reservation alone it is estimated that
the standing pine is worth $4,000, 900,
and toward this store of treasure atten-
ton has of course been most ardently
directed. A way has been found for
getting at it.
A bill has been prepared granting the
right OF way to railroad through ''cer-
tain'' Indian reservations in the state of
being of course included. The rest will
be comparatively easy, and the !, 100 In
dams on the reservation will be speedily
crowded out. Of course the time will
come when this store of timber will
have to be utilized, but it is not needed
yet. Minnesota forests are disappear
ing altogether too rapidly for the gov
eminent to aid in their complete DEM
clifton. Nor, even were it now advis-
able to make inroads upon the Red
Lake timber, would it be either fair or
polite to throw the lands open to gen.
eral settlement.
The lands belong to the Indians, and
for their benefit only should they be
sold. And there need be no haste in
disposing of them. Every day adds to
their value. When the time does come
for utilizing them the proceeds result
ing from their sale will be vastly in
creased. In the meantime the specu-
lators can wait.
