ELECTRICITY IN FORESTS.
Planning to Cut Standing Timber will
Portable Electric Saws.

electricity will 500 make itself felt
in the forests of Washington state" said
Paul Humphreys of Seattle. "The
Seattle Lumber company, which carries
on pretty extensive operations in the
timber DIN there, is about to make the
experiment which has been successfully
tried elsewhere.
Attempts have been made heretofore
to cut down the big giants of our Won
derful forests with saws operated by
steam, but portable engines were hard
to nov about easily, and q number of
other difficulties were also me that
made the scheme impracticable. With
electricity, however, things will be diff
ferent. A central plant for the genera
ton OF the fluid will be set up, and Of
course its power can be sent anywhere
by q wire, and there are few places
where a wire can not be run. The
saws wiz be provided with light gear
ing and attachments, and will be so
arranged that they will not only be able
to cut down a tree, but to divide it into
logs after it has fallen.
Most of the timber in Washington is
now felled by axmen, and their work is
little short Of marvellous. Some OIL
them are so expert that they can 0lt
down a tree and make it fall wherever
they wish. They will put a peg in the
ground, for instance, somewhere in the
radius of the circle in which the tree
they are about to attack will be bound
to fall, and wager anything they pos
sess that they can make the tree, wher
it falls, drive in the peg. There wa:
some talk at Port Blakesley, before
left home, about sending some of oul
expert axmen to Australia to compete
in the contests that are held there eacl
year, in which the timber choppers o
Tasmania are said to perform almos
incredible feats with the ax.'-Wash

SUGAR KINGS TRIALS

HIS TWO SONS.
A QUEER FAMILY wAR
The boys Arc ON Top. but II Father
Still In the Hunt-Wonderful Rise
of N German IMMIGRANT,

There Is a unique war going on in the
home OF Claus Spreckels. the sugar king
Of this continent. The old man. who land
ed in New York more than half a century
ago with wooden shoes on his feet and So
in his pocket. and conquered untold diff
culties in building up the Immense fortune
that he is now master Of, has at last met
his match in his two sons. and they are
giving him no mercy.
The two sons are Adolph and Rudolph
spreckels. There is another son. John ID.
who is generally spoken OF as the good son.
He stands by his father through thick and
thin, and. being gifted with strong COM
mercial intelligence. is a valuable aid to
the old man. For 1t is a financial war that
is disturbing the peace of the family. and
Just now the two sons are on top and have
SO thoroughly intrenched themselves in
their position that the f1ther with all his
millions is unable to max them feel the
smart of his displeasure.
The trouble dates hack to Jan. I'd OF
1894, when the two boys purchased from
the old man three-quarters of the stock
IN the Hawaiian Commercial Company,
Something over a million was the price

the spot. leaving s7ov, 900 to be paid in two
years, that is ss5o.oO0 on Jan. ?, 1895, and
the other $3.50, 900 on Jan. 2, 1896.
Seine time prior to the purchase old
Claus gave $500. 600 to each of the boys.
Now he regrets it, for they used 1t as
ammunition against the Golfers OF spreckela
senior. The old gentleman not long ago
said that Adolph and Rudolph thought
that he ought to have given them 1000. 600
apiece, instead of $500, 900, but for the
sake of harmony he sold them the three
quarters interest in his Hawaiian csm-
pany.
This ola not have the desired effect. iot
shortly after the transfer the two boys
packed up their trunks and quit the family
home. Since then the people of San Fran
cisco have been nightly Interested in the
war. Although now an old man in years,

So the deep delight OF the bargain fight

Think not that you my love now less com

To mock her is TO soil ones self with

Nor is the rhyme yet written that can
The scroll emblazoned with her fadeless
Slipping to twilight, blended that you are,
LOOK. IN her land shines freedoms sword
afiame,
And on her forehead CLOVIS the morning
star.
But she, not you. nor any child of song,
Must sound the hour, the friendless to
befriend.
And with immitigable Justice rend
The e9sangnined trappings from the rod
of wrong.
l. too, cry out. How long. o Lord, how
long,
Shall ehouls assai and not one glaive de-

Blu Gods great patience never comes to

And by long suffering vengeance grows
more strong.
So from unreasonable chidings cease,
Impious to her who bears within her
breast,
Walls from the east and clamors from
the west.
Nay, should the clamor and the walls in
crease,
Firm in the faith she knoweth what is
best,
Keep you tonight the festival of peace.

II when autumnal shadows streak
The fa'rowed brow, the rinkled cheek,
Devotion, deepening to the close,
Like fruit that ripens enderer grows:
Lie thick on life's declining slope,
The fond heart, faithful to the last,
Lingers in love-drifts of the past;
If with the gravely shortening days
Faith trims the lamp, faith feeds the

And reverence, robed in wintry white,
Sheds fragrance like a summer night,
Then love can last!
