Hudson Was n Tie

Ardsley-on-Hudson, Oct. IA brilliant
Autumnal day. with just touch of frost

golfers after the wetting of yesterday at
the Ardsley Club links this morning. The
teams TO meet in the finals for the college
championship cup this morning were those
of Yale. winner for the past two years.

I NJ. Robertson. Yale and w. b. Cutting,
Jr. Harvard.
The twelve names represent the high
est class of golfers, barring the Scotch

in competition in this country. All are
prize-winners.
The teams started Off at 10 o'clock and
the match resulted in a tie
To have team match result in a [ g
is something nearly unprecedented in
golf. The college boys had long pow
WOW over the situation and decided to
settle 1t at special meeting later in the
day of the intercollegiate association.
This result did not satisfy the Harvard
men. who felt that fun rounds of thirty
SIX holes should be played. The tie in the
match was owing to a foot and a half

green. He and Cutting We're the last two

christen the battleship Wisconsin, Miss
Harriette Stephenson and Miss Charlotte
Holmes. of Menominee. Wis.
There was nothing very hazardous
about it or as thrilling as pictured, said
Mrs. Austin today at her home. 1T is
true my daughter and the other members
of the party were lost. They strayed
from the path and couldn't find their way
for half an hour. In the party were Miss
Elizabeth Stephenson, Miss Marion Ste
phenson and Miss Charlotte Holmes. I
was in Paris at the time. The party
made the trip to Vesuvius two days after
the eruption. The ground around was
lowered with lava beds. a chaperon ac-
Eompanied the girls.
With the intention of seeing the lava
beds and getting as near the top as they
could, they ventured up. They were not
lost all night, as the papers said. OF
course they were somewhat frightened
when they lost the path. Three guides
went with them. but they did not appear
to know the way. No one of the party
was injured. The sulphurous air was
trying, but they all came out of the ad-
venture unharmed. Miss Stephenson was
reported to have sprained her ankle.
This is not so. The party returned to
the hotel in good spirits, and look back
on the experience as a pleasant excur-
sion.'
Mrs Austin is the wife of Frederick C.
Austin. of the F. C. Austin Manufacture
ing Company. Miss Marion Austin is a
stepdaughter. She was educated at Har-
court Seminary, in Gambler, Ohio, and
Miss Porter's School for Girls, in Farm
ington, Conn. Two years ago Miss Ma
rion went aboard, and has been travelling
on the Continent since. Miss Elizabeth
Stephenson came home to take part in
the ceremony of naming the battleship
Wisconsin.

team used a new set Of signals which will
be used in the Pennsylvania and Yale
games and practiced some simple plays in
the new formations.
When the play was about half through

the Varsity enclosure. A slim individual
shot out of the entrance with the speed

players and coaches. all of whom seemed

ible part of his anatomy. The man ran
straight across the practice field. with
"Bo-Bo' Sergeant, Burnett and McMas-

spy. and was found concealed in the
stand. His speed and the fact that the
crowd did not know his offense was all
that saved him from a ducking in the
neighboring Charles River.

Mrs. Austin was visiting in Paris while
her daughter and a party were travers-

The report that one of the party was

Mrs Austin says her daughter is none

YOnlers. n. Y, Oct. 2I.-The twenty

A TREMENDOUS LOSS.
Forest Fires Have Destroyed Timber
Worth Millions.

Washington, Oct. 13.-The annual re-
port of Commissioner Hermann of the
general land office estimates that over
eleven billion feet of public timber have
been destroyed by fire in the past 80
years, representing in value many mil
lions of dollars. The report says for
est fires form the main subject for the
attention of the land office now, threat
ening as they do not only the growing
forest. but the forest lands, whose pro
ductiveness it retardS Indefinitely.
1.-THE direct effect on the flow OF
streams and dependent agricultural pos
sibilities,' the report continues, al
so must be considered Moreover the
loss has been wholly without cOmpen-
sation; for none of the timber has gone
to develop the country and no local in
terests have been benefited, as in case
of forest cutting. Many of our western
forests are reported to be peculiarly Ii
able to fires the inf1ammable character
of the highly resinOus trees in certain
portions of the west and the hot dry eli
mate of those regions combining to make
fires frequent and destructive.
1.-The task of protecting forests from
the CONGREGATIONS that yearly sweep
them is apparent The matter IS clear
~ one demanding from an economic
standpoint, measures prOportiOnate to
the issues involved
Sheep gra zing is another difficulty in
administering some of the preserves and
special efforts have been directed to-
ward finding the particular regions in
which conditions demand the exclusion
the restrictions regulating sheep grazing
in other regions.
Public opinion is reported to have IN
dergCne, recently, a material charge in
favor of reservations. Sites of timber
is a subject now receiving special con-
sfderatiOn with a view to inaugura ting
a national system of timber cutting
which will supply local demands for for
est productions at the same time yield
ing fair money return to the govern
ment. During the year 355 cases of
71T
ported, involving public timber and its
products to the value of 1852, 1872, recOv-
cradle to the government.
The want of proper legislation and the
lack OF sufficient force of special agents
has caused serious difficulties in pre-
venting timber depreciation. Discus
sing land laws in Alaska, the commits
SlOner says if it shall hereafter be devel-
oped that there are large areas of ara
Die lands, amounting to a considerable
number OF townships in Alaska he will
adopt the system of INDEPENDENT base
and meridian lines there, as pra cticed
IN other districts where it is fmDracti-
cable to extend the exterior lines over
inaccessible portions of the country
Recommendations made in the report
are mainly for the compulsory attend
ance or witnesses at contested land case
hearings before local land offices: leg
1siaIlon for dispOsing of coal lands in
forest reservations; repeal of timber
law OF June 5. 1878 and August 4 1892 .
withdrawal of lands chiefly vaIua BILE
Tor timber for forest reservations; a
general law to protect and use timber
on unsurveyed lands and to increase the
force of special agents to protect pub
lie timber.
