trees unless the prize he is climbing
for is more valuable than ripe per-

SALOONS IN THE DIVISION
The Attitude of the Excise Board Toward
Them Creates Excitement.
Liquor Dealers, Retail and Wholesale,
When the License Year Begins.

The announcement in Saturdays Star to
the effect that the excise board would re-
fuse to relicense the liquor saloons in the
Division has caused a great deal Of COM
ment. To those directly interested this
contemplated action means virtually a re-
tirement from business. For the excise
board has decided in no uncertain terms
that it would not license any new places.
1t is understood that the Federation of
Liquor Dealers will take the subject up for
consideration at its next meeting and ap-
point committee to wait upon the excise
board and find out exactly how far reaching
the proposed order will be. But little sat
isfaction will be cleaned for as yet the eX-
else board has issued no order and will not
take any action until the new license year
rolls around. Then, it is understood, the
board will act on each individual case as
it is presented.
big fight is looked for when the time
arrives, for it is not to be presumed that
those who have saloons in the Division will
subrct gracefully. Nor is this all. The big
wholesalers who furnish liquor will take q
hand in the fight, because such action OIL
the part of the excise board takes SO much
money out of their pockets.
The Anti-saloon League, on the other
hand, is applauding the proposed action. A
member of the league, speaking to re-
porter of The Star today, Said
DO you know, the excise board could not
possibly do anything that would meet with
such universal support as cleaning the Di-
vision of its liquor saloons. 1t is a grand
move and will be the means of saving many
a soul. 1t is the veriest nonsense for the
upholders Of those brothels to argue that
liquor saloons are necessary in that hotbed
of crime. There is no place under the
canopy of heaven where liquor saloons are
needed, and even If they were, surely such
a place as the Division would not be Sc
lected. 1t is the place where the vilest
element of the city congregates, and the
presence of liquor saloons is like red flag
in the face of a mad bull. Every one OF
them should be closed, and the good citi-
zens of Washington applaud the excise
board for it's grand stand upon such an
evil

THE FOREST AND THE FARM.
Prof. FernOw Has Devised nm Interest
ing Exhibit for the Atlanta Exposition

Prof. FernOw Has Devised nm Interest,"
ing Exhibit for the Atlanta Exposition
Prof. Fernow of the Department of Ag-
riculture has prepared for the Atlanta ex-
position an exhibit which is designed to IL
lustrate the value of forests to the farmer.
1t consists of three models in relief, each
about eight feet square, and representing
a section of ordinary farming country per-
haps two miles square, with hills, cult
waited fields and a stream that runs wind
ing through valley. The three models
represent the same farm under varying
conditions.
Model No. l shows the farm as 1t appears
under conditions only too common in the
agricultural districts of this country. The
hilltops have been denuded of trees by the
careless Use of fire or otherwise. Conse-
quently the rains have poured down and
have washed away a large part of the ara
BILE soil that once covered the slopes be-
meath. Thus the unfortunate planter has
trouble to get living, as is evidenced by
the wretched little house he occupies and
by other symptoms
Model No. 2 shows the farm after its
owner has become enlightened SIS to the
cause of his misfortune. He has planted
trees on the hilltops, and new forests nave
thus been started Already a marked i'm
provement in the condition of affairs is no.
ticeable, areas previously denuded OF soil
being now recovered and under cultivation.
Model No 8 exhibits. the farm as 1t APP
pears after the restoration of the forests
on the hills. Everything is lovely and
green, the evidences of erosion by water
have disappeared entirely, and the increased
prosperity of the proprietor is shown by
the fact that he has built him new house.

VANDERBILT CANNOT BUY HIM.

This Aged COlOrcd Man IL n Slayer
and ScOrns Wealth.
II met man the other day whom money
cannot buy" said Prof. Galloway of the
Department of Agriculture to a representa-
tive of The Star.
1T was at Asheville, on the great baron
ial estate of Frederick W. Vanderbilt OF
course, you have read about the marvels of
Biltmore-a princely domain among the
mountain tops in the land of the sky On
the top of one of the mountains the mil
lionaire owner has built his castle, of sand
stone brought from Indiana. Up against
the peak of the mountain has been con-
structed huge wall of solid masonry, on
top of which is the castle. From the castle
you can see forty miles in every direction.
But with all his money. Mr.. Vanderbilt
cannot buy everything. Even he has to
complain of crumpled roseleaf. This
roscleaf that bothers Mr.. Vanderbilt is a
poor old colored man. The colored man
owns little farm of nine acres in the very
middle OF the Vanderbilt domain, and he
will not SELL 1t is blot which Mr.. Wand er-
bilt has been unable to wipe out. He has
offered $1,000 an acre for it in vain. His
last offer was $4,000 for the little holding
but Uncle Tom shook his head and would
not take it, Imagine what a gigantic for
tune 100000 would be to such poor old
colored man. But he declined it,
1.-THE old darky's cabin is 50 close to Mr.
Vanderbilt as to make itself Extensively
conspicuous In fact, it is almost directly
under the great wall above which the castle
has been erected. One could almost strike
1t with a stone thrown from the castle
Finding it impracticable to wipe out the
blot, Mr. Vanderbilt has done his best to
efface the little farm by surrounding it
with ring of tall trees. These are grow
ing rapidly, and before long nobody will be
able to see from the castle the humble
cabin and its few surrounding acres.
THAT it is pure obstinacy which has i'm
PEELED the old coored man to hold on to his
farm is by no means certain. He has had
lawyers to advise him, l think. l went to
tee him one day, and he SAID to me, with
\ sly look: oh, I'll sell; I'll sell. When
Mr.. Vanderbilt offers me what my farm
Is wuff I'll SELF"
