The Fires win Make worl, For Many.

What is the probable loss from the fire on pine stumpago throughout the state?" was asked of a l1adily z logger.
 'The loss is ill one sense nominal, ? replied he "You understand, fire docs not burn the body of a pine tree. It only burns off the bark and foliage The trunk of the burned tree is as good as ever it was, with this exception-the tree, after it is burned, must be cut the succeeding winter. else 1t will become worm eaten and worthless
 ''This fire is blessing in disguise to labor. Every owner of burned pine stumpage must go to work this coming winter and cut every foot of it, and many of these owners, are forced to cut perhaps hundreds of millions of feet of stumpage they would not otherwise have cut for years to ceme. They are, you see, forced to emplog immense crews of men they would not otherwise have had use for "--St. Paul Globe

ROYALTY AND TIE LAW.
The Queen of England and Her Son as Can
 didates For the Criminal Dock.

The bazaar in aid of the fund for re- building the Crathie church, near Bal moral, was held under the patronage of the queen, who also gave two plaited straw baskets made by her own royal hands. These precious presents were naturally made much of and with the queens approval wore disposed of by g raffle, although the gaming laws dis tinctly specify railing as illegal. The question arises, Has her majesty, by aiding and abetting it, made herself lia- ble to prosecution before magistrate! Lawyers have no doubt about it, but il does not follow that the law will be set in motion. The British constitution would scarcely survive the shock of the spectacle of the empress-q queen in 8 criminal dock and possibly fined 40 shil- lings or Q month at hard labor.
 But while nobody is disposed to take action against the queen for connivinl at mild form of gambling plenty oi people would not beso1Ty to see her son, lieutenant general, his royal highnes. the Duke of Connaught, tried by court martial for rislzing the lives of the mel under his command. The duke is com mander i'll chief of tho Aldershot dis trict. On Wednesday he and his wife went to the military balloon ground il order to christen new balloon to bt named after the duchess. The weather had been threatening thunderstorms, and the atmosphere was heavily charged with electricity. Nevertheless it would never do to disappoint the duchess. so just as the storm was about to break the balloon was sent up 800 feet anC anchored by steel rope held by three sappers. The result, as might have beel expected, was that the lightning strucl the balloon, rushed down the steel con ductor and horribly mangled the unfor tunate sappers. The question every ont asked is why the ceremony was not post poned, seeing that danger was palpa ble to the meanest understanding ThC demand for a court martial is very gen eral and will probably be aeceded to but it may be safely predicted that tht prisoner will not be the general com manding, but some inferior oficer.- London Cor.

BLASTING THE PALISADES.
Contractors Destroying Their Beauty t
 Get Out Granite Blocks.

Contractors Destroying Their Beauty to
 Get Out Granite Blocks.
 Until comparatively recently the Palisades escaped theruthless hands oi contractors and quarrymen, despite the fact that there are few spots in the country where richer deposits oi granite are to be found. A few quarries within the last five years have sprung up at Fort Lee, but they have all been located away back from the Palisades, and the front of these beautiful hills have been unmolested. Now, however, a firm od contractors, by exploding dynamite, 3,000 pounds at a time, is gradually making huge excavations ill front of the Palisades, which will in the course Of q very few months transform the historic Palisades from things of beauty to or. dinary stone quaTries
 Nothing that the lovers of natural scenery can do will ill any way stop the destructive work from going on. The Palisades are private property, and that part of them which is at present being torn open by high explosives has been leased by the owners to contractors, whose love of the beautiful pales into instgniicance beside their business in stinet,
 Aside from the destruction of the Palisades, the work going on in the quarries at Fort Lee is of moment or account of the enormous amount oi dynamite which is being exploded there. People maryeled at the heexplosion of 500 pounds of dynamite in projeotile thrown by pneumatic gun at Sandy Hook some weeks ago Six times that much was exploded at Fort Lee or Thursday at noon and again on Friday at the same hour, and although it was not thrown from q gun neither did il explode ill the water, but ill q solid bed of granite. The terrific force of these two explosions cannot be imagined by anybody who was not in Fort Lee te hear them, or who has not since visited the quarries to see their effect The lit, tie village of Fort Leo shook as though an earthquake had visited it, and stran. gers in the place who were unaware that blasting was going on in tho vicinity were firmly convinced that some con. vulsion of nature had occurred.

THE Republican Sheriff of Fayett

THE Republican Sheriff of Fayette county, O., who was a candidate for re- election, was badly beaten in q strong Republican county bya Dem ocrat, for executing Gov. Mckin- ley's orders in treating with a mob that had lynched a colored man. The militia colonel who acted with the Sheriff refuses to testify against the mob, for fear of his life. This is poser for the Republican party on the southern outrage question.
