Many years ago, in the city of Valpa-
riso, twenty-five hundred women and
children met their deaths by fire in a
church during a Christmas festival.
Since then the world has been frequent
ly shocked by caiamaties similar in
character, among which were the de-
struction of the Vienna theater, the
burning of the Brooklyn theater, the
crash of the Pemberton mills and num-
erous other great accidents. The latest
great accident to startle the world oc-
cured last Tuesday in Paris, when a
great charity bazaar, crowded with the
wealthy and fashionable people of the
city was burned so quickly that many
scores of people were caught and only
their charred remains were left to tell
the CHASTITY story of destruction.

Arbor Day.

Arbor day, which was originally in
stituted by the Nebraska state board o.
agriculture in 1874, has grown to be 6
day of national imp ortance, and is now
duly observed in forty-four states and
territories of the Union. Iu six states
it has been made legal holiday; in five
as holiday for schools and in the bal
ance of the forty-fouf it has been set
apart as day for the planting of trees
and shrubbery. While different states
have different days for observing Arbor
day, according to their climatic condi-
tions, the majority of them have come
to observe April 3d. In our own state
it is the first Friday in Way.
In Idaho the day has been observed
for several years and the interest has
steadily increased each year. Societies
churches, schools and individuals have
all come to regard Arbor day as the
time to set out trees, plants and shrubs
and to otherwise beautify and improve
the public parks and grounds as well
as their own individual property
In DeLamar the day is being OBJ
served by the school with appropriate
ceremonies and planting of trees.

ACRIMONIOUS DIPLOMACY.
Secretary OIney and the German AM
bnssador Indulge in Sharp
Correspondence


Washington. April 2.-samoan affairs
wcrc much discussed last year between
Secretary Olney and Baron Thielmann, the
German ambassador here. While this dis
cussion did not result in any change in
the status of Samoa, there were traces of
personal feeling in places in the corre-
spondence, somewhat out of the ordinary
run of diplomatic correspondence. The vol
shows that the baron was obliged, year
ago. to call upon Secretary Olney to pay
81 .267 as the United States share of main
tanning old King Mataafa and took occa-
sion to speak of the deficiencies in Samoan
revenues and to ask the intentions of the
United States as to remedial measures.
Secretary Olney paid the money and de-
clared that the existing treaty was unsat-
isfactory TO the United States and should
be modified or abrogated.
In his next letter, the secretary, however,
warned the ambassador that it was a
grave error TO assume to proceed as If the
administration of Samoa were virtually
and exclusively German and expressed an
anticipation that conciliatory and proper
action would be enjoined upon the German
consul at Apia. A little later on, the am
ba ssador, in turn, wound up a note to Sec
retary Olney by blunt refusal to transmit
his views to Berlin as requested and re-
marked that the secretary must issue suit
able instructions to the United States am
bassador at Berlin if he wished his views
-diametrically opposite to former under
standing-brought to the notice of the i'm
perial government.
Secretary Olney came promptly back at
the ambassador by an equally blunt con-
tradiction of his statement, saying:
II have been unable to find any warrant
for the conclusions you advance" and then
the correspondence ran on, the secretary
insisting on keeping on the correspondence
in Washington.

day. Secretary Sherman, who was unable
to attend last Tuesday on account of ILL

sion little over an hour and a half. The
only question of public Importance dis
cussed was the question OF resembling the
order of eX-President Cleveland setting
apart twenty-One forest reservations in the
West. This question has engaged the at
tention of Secretary Bliss for some time
The secretary to-day took to the White
House the maps and papers relating to
the matter. The discussion of the forestry
question was at times very vigorous. and
all the members took part. The outcome
was instructions that the national forestry
commission he summoned to Washington
to talk over its work with the president
1t is understood that the sentiment was
unanimous that President Cleveland's proc
lamation was too comprehensive and it was
stated that the object of the commission
which investigated the subject and on
whose report the reservations We're pro-
claimed. was TO take in enough" territory
to preclude the possible future claim that
any land leeitimately deserving or reauir-
