Col. Ingersoll and his family and the private
secretary, says the st. Louis Republic. recently
stopped at one of the hotels on the other side
of the divide. One of the clerks had recently
come from the east, 1t was the custom in his
section to make reduction of rates sometimes
in the case of distinguished arrivals who were
regarded as good advertisements When the
orator of renown above named was ready to
leave the place he sent his secretary down to
settle the bill, as is the custom. The secretary
encountered the eastern clerk who, having re
ceived no instructions, turned to the proprietor.
who was doing away in the office, and asked
him what the rate would be for Col. Iugersoll
and party. who is Ingersollf' asked the
mountain host.
The clerk explained. taking pride in the fact
that he knew more on one subject at least, than
his employer.
What was the regular rate on the room he
hadf asked the host waking up.
''Three and a half day for one person, was
the answer.
Make it five and half a day for one person, y
said the landlord. Il don t care anything about
the extra charge but I want to let these east
ern big guns understand that We don't make
any difference between them and the specimens
Of our own diggins We amt bowin down to
the east as much as We was. anyhow
With this having been ordered the landlord
blew into pipe and called out, Send up a
gallon Of White Label for them heathens from

The address Of Mr. Murat Halstead at
/ Roseland park, Woodstock, Conn, yester-
T day, on THE preservation Of the peoples
/ Inheritance an extract from which is pub
/ lished in our dispatches this morning, ia
well calculated 10 draw public attention 10
a number of very great evils from which
/ the country is already suffering, and from
which it must suffer to a still greater ex-
/ tent in the very near future.
One Of these evils is the wholesale destruc-
/ tioa of the forests without providing for the
general planting OF trees The removal
! Of the forests is followed by droughts and
and foods Where once there was a rain
fall pretty evenly distributed throughout
the year there are now long periods Of dry
weather from which vegetation Of all kinds
suffers severely. The rains, which do not oc-
cur as often as formerly, are very heavy,
producing freshets, which carry the rich
soil to the streams. And this work OF de-
struction IS going on steadily. Vast areas
Of land that was once fruitful are becoming
barren. Even streams in which water
flowed throughout the year are now often
dry. AS Mr. Halstead says, I'VE have
wasted our Incompatible Inheritance as
barbarians would not have done, for we
have exhausted the agencies Of civilization
in the widespread labors Of universal I'M
| poverishment."
| Butthe destruction Of the forests goes on
year after year with scarcely a protest.
| And the forest fires assist the woodlands
ak Every year the timber on tens Of
thousands Of acres is changed into ashes
not purposely, but generally through care
lessness.
1t is expected, Of course, that the trees Of
the forests will be cut to meet the demand
| for lumber manufactured from them, but
there is no reason why the young trees
which are not needed for lumber should not
be preserved in cases where the land is not
needed or is not fit for cultivation.
| Aud, besides. there ought to be
well established system Of tree planting
in every state. Most Of the states nave an
srbor day, but the tree planting on that
day does not amount to a great deal A few
trees are planted in small number of
localities, but they are not sufficient to
counterfeit the evils which follow the des-
| truction of the forests.
The present generation does not seem to
care what evils the next may have to con-
tend with. The sole aim appears to be to get
what it can for itself. The time, however,
cannot be distant when measures for the
preservation Of the forests and the planting
of trees will have to be adopted. Such
measures are in force 10 those of the Euro
pean countries which are the most prosper
Gus. Mr. HalsJead's words of warning are
timely and should be needed.

There is a bookmaker down at Sheepshead
Bay named Lackman, says the New York
World, who has very fine vein of natural
humor. Before the first race yesterday after
noon Mr.. Lackmsn was standing on his box
feeling unusually humorous The betting had
hardly begun when little man with q red face,
who had been wandering aimlessly down the
long line OF boOkmakers, stopped in front of
Bookmaker Lackman's slate and stared hard at
1t.
Mighty long odds against this Kingstock, I"
remarked the little man, at last.
Mr.. Lackman glanced at his board lazily:
Kngstock Was 50 toll
That hain't no so to horse" continued the
little man; that's a good, fair horse. "
Yes, responded Mr.. Lackman with keen
wit, II know he lsa remarkably fine animal.
That's the reason am laying 80 to / against
him."
But ought to know more than you do
persisted the little man, who evidently had
not vet learned that no human being knows
as much as wise bookmaker. 81 think he'll
win"
well, WELL" cried Mr. Lackman, merrily.
you really think that? Here's what think, :"
and he rubbed out 80 to l and chalked up rs
to !.
why don't you make it 100 to II" said the
little man, getting redder. Mr. Lackman is of
an accommodating disposition. and marked up
100 to 1.
Now" said the little man. pulling out a roll
of money, IN bet you $50 on Kingstock" Mr..
Lackmen called to his sheet-writer s. 900 to
SG0," and the little man took the ticket and
walked away. few minu es later Mr. Lack
man glanced down the line of boards and saw
10 70 the longest price against Kingstock.
When the race was over and Kingstock won
the little red-faced man was the first in line be-
hind Mr. Lackman's box

Philadelphia is considerably excited
about statement that was made by Bards-
ley, the city treasurer. before he was sent
to the penitentiary, but which has never
bsen given TO the public He made one
statement to the investigating committee OF
the city council in which be tried to make
it appear that ne was a greatly injured
man, and that he had done nothing wrong.
Nobody believed it. 1t was 80 clearly false
in almost every particular that no serious
attention was paid t. it.
But the public is curious 20 know what
the other statement is. It was sent to the
Philadelphia Ledger, and that paper refused
to publish II. The statement was not even
given TO the Investigating committee. 1t is
not stated how the fact became public that
the Ledger had such a statement.
But it seems that the editor of the Ledqer
is now willing to tell the Investigating COM
mittee the substance of it. He says the
reason he did not publish it was that it con-
| tains scandalous references to half dozen
or more prominent citizens, and that these
| references have no better foundation than
the word of Bardsley, the convict, and
Marsh the fugitive president of the Keysto
National Bank. The impression seems to be
that Bardsloy and Marsh assert that these
half dozen persons got the money which
ought to be in the city treasury.
What makes the keystone National Bank
scandal so interesting t. the whole country
is Postmaster General Wanamaker's con-
nection with it. The public is not yet salts
| fed that he does not know good deal more
about the banks affairs than he has vet
| told. And there seems to be suspicion
that one of the reasons that the editor of
the Ledger did not publish Bardsley' g
statement is that Mr.. Wanamaker is men
toned in it In a way that is not compli-
| mentary to him.
A curious thing about the investigation
of the scandal is that not a single citizen OF
Philadelphia has voluntarily gone before
the investigating committee to tell what he
knows Of it. All who have testified have
done SO under legal process. This looks as
if there was general fear OF duplicating
somebody of prominence and a desire to
hush up the scandal. Such condition OF
affairs docs not speak well for the business
morality of the Quaker City.

She Didn't Propose to Him.

One of the late matrimonial engagements is
said to be the outcome of daring little piece
of repartee on the part of the young woman.
says the Boston SG turdGy Ereni15g Gazette,
who has enjoyed the reputation of being not
only wit, but a beauty and belle as well.
Although quite young, she was known 10 have
declined the honor Of matrimonial alliance with
several OF the best so-caled catches Of the
season, and II began at last to be rumored that
her mind and heart were set on one of her ad-
mlrers who had not, as yet, the temer ty to
come TO the point. However that may be, the
young man in question was her partner in one
OF the Harvard assemblies during last winter.
and during the intermssion for supper was
seated with her in a sequesterod nook. far
from the madding crowd.
Apropos of something that had been said, he
asked her laughingly il the report were true
that she had refused all the eligible men in
her set She blushed wildly for a Eoment,
then suddenly raised her head looked him full
in the face and said pOintedy: Yes it is
true-present company accepted 1t is. per
haps, needless TO state that they remained in
the "sequestered NOOK" during the rest Of the
german, and that the young lady wore spark
ling solitaire on her left hand within few days
Rumor also hasn't that the above conversation
was overheard by one of the discarded sutors,
who forthwith gave it away"
