In the Burning Heat and Freezing
Cold He Sticks to His Post.
To know the American soldier well
you must toll with him over the des-
ert trail where the sun beats hotly
down on the dry and verdureless earth,
and the dust rises in white clouds that
hide the column from view, and fills
the eyes, the mustaches, the ears, the
mouth, with profanity and vexation.
Here is where his songs and Jokes pro-
claim the stuff he is made of.
Then, when you are sent out with
him in the dead OF winter in over
twenty inches OF snow, your equip
ments and supplies on bobslels, he it
ls that dismounts time and again
without a murmur, pushing to help
the mules uphill, and repacking the
overturned sled a dozen times a day;
then, after all, digging his hole in the
snow, and putting up his tent at
night, all the time Joking with the
"bunkie," and ready as ever to steal
a wisp OF hay or handful OF oats for
his shivering horse.
He it is that jumped into boiling
not spring to save the life OF the
daughter OF private citizen, who was
rich man, protfered the astounding
sum OF s. and the government a gold
medal OF honor; he that took Il flat
bottomed boat out in a heavy sea in
New York harbor to rescue a drown
ing boy; that lost his life for his tidel-

handed, served a tield-gun through an

The Worlds Fair and Sunday.

has hardly been Sunday since the gates

Value of Summer Resort Business.

New HAMPSHIRE has an annual income
of SIS, 900, 900 from summer visitors alone,
fact that should arouse its people at
once to the threatened clearing of for
ests from some of its grandest peaks and
mountain ranges. Lovers of nature are
of course also interested in this matter.
but if the devastation is to be averted it
must be by those whose pockets are con-
cerned. A lumber firm, it is said, has
purchased the right to cut down the trees
on the south side of Mt. Washington, and
will soon begin to clear the land at the
rate of 1O,OO0,O00 feet year. The forest
of Mt Willard, report says, are also in
the hands of a speculator, who offers to
forego his numbering operations if the
neighboring hotel-keepers twill pay him
$1,000. Let no one think that the dan
ger is imaginary. The Boston Trans
cript testifes: 'EThe portable sawmill is
dragging it's deadly course up and down
the mountain glens, leaving everywhere
track of devastation behind. The
beautiful iceland valley is one vast scene
of waste and desolation; immense heaps
of sawdust roll down the slopes to choke
the streams, and, by the destructive acid
distilled from their decaying substance,
to poison the fish; smoke rises night
and day from fires which are maintained
to destroy the still accommodating piles of
slabs and other mill debris. Those who
ride through the Crawford Notch, view
ing the splendid scenery as the train
creeps slowly up the mountain side, find
their vision confronted again by the
telltale sawdust heaps, some of
them as large as dwellings, signs
of the ruthless destroyer's tooth in
that charming and wonderful
defile." A recent report of the New
Hampshire Forestry Commission draws
attention to the growing spoliation, and
suggests remedial measures, but up to
this time the people Of the State have
shown themselves to be strangely indif-
rerent. This can scarcely be accounted
for by the fact that some of the largest
summer hotels are owned by non-resi-
dents, for, admitting that to be so, it
should not be forgotten that they give
employment to an army of people and
are the means of benetiting the local
| merchants and the farmers. State pride
alone should be factor in putting a
| stop to the depredations.
