NATIONAL SERVICES.
Address OF Secretary Foster on Religion
in Economy.

in Economy.
AsBURY PARK, Aug. 2S.-Four thou
sand people assembled in the Asbury
Park auditorium at the national ser
vice this afternoon TO hear the Hon.
Charles Foster; secretary Of the treasu-
ry, and General Bussey, assistant secre-
tary of the interior. Whltelaw Reid
was also expected TO speak, but he tele-
graphed his regrets. The services were
opened with prayer by the Rev. DR..
McCOsh, ex-presIdent of Princeton
university. The subject of Secretary
Fosters address was announced as
Religion IN Economy" In the course
of his remarks be said:
at is popularity supposed that the
tre asury department looks only after
the finances OF the country, but as a
matter of fact, 10 looks after very
many other lmportant matters. One Of
the most difficult duties of my depart
ment IS the proper administration of
immigration laws. 1t is hard to deter
mine absolutely If maa is brought
here under contract, or Is likely TO be-
come public charge. A young man
without cent IN his pocket but strong
OF heart and limb, IS often less liable to
become pauper than the weakly man
with MS pocket full of money. One of
the most important duties OF the treas
ury department Is the care OF
the marine hospitals at all ports of en-
try 10 this country. My only regret Is
that it does not have more complete
control of all these avenues for the IN
PRODUCTION TO the country of cholera
and other infections. The local con
troll Of these stations is q relic of the
old states rights idea. However, we
have undertaken vigorous measures for
the exclusion of rags and passengers
from infected ports and the full power
and intelligence of the treasury service
Will be exerted for the safety OF the
country"
A reference to Mr. Blsine's name was
loudly applauded. General Bussey
followed with a short address, in when
he said that ail opposition TO law
whether toy one man OF by an organ
lzed band of men, must be crushed Just
as surely and as promptly as was the
rebellion Of the southern states. tie

A Jeffersonville Qnd.) dispatch says:
A fresh water shark was one of the
curiosities seen by fishermen in this
harbor to-day. For several days the
fish, which is estimated 10 be fifteen
feet in length and TO weigh eight hun
dred pounds, has destroyed great num-
bers OF perch, buffalo and channel cat
caught on trot-line hooks. This morn
ing the shark nipped twenty-pound
perch which had been caught on one OF
the hooks Of a trot-line opposite the
city and destroyed one-half Of the fish at
the first bite. Returning for the re-
mainder, it swallowed tho hook, and
when an attempt was made by fisher
man 10 run the line the shark splashed
the water similar to the way young
whale would. The shark is described as
having mouth like an alligator, teeth
two inches long, and a nose resembling
a pug dog. Fishermen have procured
strong tackle and are batting with ten
pound fsh in the hopes OF catching tho
shark.

FILLING MONSTER TEETH.
A Dentists Novel Experience In an Ele-
phant's Cavernous Mouth.

A Dentists Novel Experience In an Ele-
phant's Cavernous Mouth.
Electricity has become an important
adjunct to the outfit of the modern
dentist, but 1t is not likely that many
will be called upon in the discharge OF
their professional duties TO illuminate
the cavernous mouth of an elephant, as
recently happened in the practice of a
leading New York specialist.
A large show was on exhibition in
town in Michigan, but the showman'a
elephant, which was a tower of strength
to tho performance, was suddenly
seized with the toothache, and the whole
caravan was demoralized 1t was found
that the trouble arose from a decayed
tooth. None of the local practitioners
fancied the job of filling the cavity, and
the proprietor of the show telegraphed
70 New York dentist.
The New Yorker went on by first
train and, after first chloroforming the
animal, he braced open the brute's jaws
by two crossed hickory sticks, and from
these suspended an electric lamp. This
gave a light that enabled the filling Of
the tooth TO be satisfactorily accom-
plished, and in an hours time the show
was In full blast, and the dentist, with
his fee in his pocket, was journeying
homeVyard

THE SNAKE CATCHER.
How Boa ConstrIctors Are Secured for
Menageries.


''To catch boa is a very difficult and
dangerous task" says man who makes
it his business to capture wild animals
and reptiles for menagerie purposes.
briefly, it Is accomplished by means OF
q labyrinthian tangle, embracing sixty
square feet of ground.
1.-THE labyrinth Is made by joining to-
gether, end to end, pieces Of mating.
The web is eight feet high, usually,
and placed SO that the opposite walls
will be two feet apart. All sorts OF
criss-cross and diverging combinations
are made with the matting-it is sup
ported here and there by stakes, max
ing, when it is set, geometrical puzzle
that might well challenge the ingenuity
of man.
"The trap is baited with live pig,
which is placed In pen in the center
of the labyrinth. By and by along
comes the boa constructor. 1t is easy
enough TO get In. He scents the prey;
he is very hungry; the pig is devoured,
and here the boa comes to grief For
hours he tries to release himself from
the tortuous passages which rise about
him, but finally he grows tired and
stretches himself out for q nap. Then
Is our time. We open the labyrinth
and catch him"

FOREST PRESERVATION.
How to Prevent a Timber Famine Within
n Generation.

a GeneraBon.
Further destruction of forests with.
out effort to make good the waste will
produce 4 timber famine within gen
Grafton. Many kinds OF valuable woods
have already practically disappeared,
and other kinds are disappearing rap
idly from our forests. For one hundred
years the destruction of timber has
been constant. without renewal Re-
foresting is not difficult nor costly, and
returns will be ample.
One of the first duties is 20 cut from
t.mberland only those trees that have
reached their prime, while preserving
the underground from browsing ami
mails By fencing forest.tracts- Second
growth should be guarded and not
thinned so much as to prevent a proper
development of trunks for economical
use as timber Natural planting should
be encouraged in the vicinity OF forests
containing desirable species Such
planting may be encouraged by fencing
In cleared areas about forests and keep
ing cattle out.
Waste lands on hillsides or rocky
places, or on the borders of swamps,
should be planted with valuable forest
trees suitable to the location Plant
ing in groups will insure good timber,
especially from the trees most shaded.
Experimental planting of groups on
waste land viii bring valuable expert
ence in tree culture.
Success in reforesting depends great
ly upon a careful observation of nature
ord pa+r,ra,o ,,a+bodS No one of ex-
perience would plant black walnut in
marshy ground or black ash on hill
side. Pine and cedar flourish in swamps
and on hillsides alike, and the same IS
true of hemlock White ash and black
cherry flourish best on dry ground.
Swamp white oak, a valua bic tim Der
tree, loves moist ground. Hard maple
IS sometimes found in swamps, but II
does not flourish there as well as on
uplands. Elms love moisture.
Trees usually found growing together
in forests should be planted together.
Trees of one species are rarely found
alone, and there is a belief, probably
well founded, that n variety OF species
In forest is most conclusive to strong
and healthy growth. The soil OF ex
hausted hillsides is best renewed by q
growth of trees and a deposit of lea1
mold. A young forest thickly planted
must be a constant source OF profit
after the first eight or ten years
through cutting to thin out and give
room for proper development of tops
