WASHINGTON, Jan. 15.-Land COMMISSIONS
Hermann is at work on n special report to tho
Secretary Of the Interior. recommending that q
forest reserve be made out OF the pctrifed forest
of Arizona.
Recent reports received by tho Interior De-
partment about the condition Of this forest in
dictate that it is rapidly being used up for
commercial. purposes, and. unless the Gov
eminent steps in to stop the despoil-
ment, tho whole forest, which Is one
OF tho greatest natural curiosities in the
world, will disappear. There is now building in
faced with the silicincd wood taken from the
forest, and all the tables for the hotel are also TO
be made OF it.. AT this rate OF consumption It.
would not be long before all the %petrined wood
would DO used up. Commissioner Hermann
thinks that there is immediate necessity for nc

served is to make II u forest reserve;
Tho forest is located near HOlbrook, In Apache
county. Ariz. The largest and finest specimens
of siliclfed wood in the world are taken from it.
Whole trunks of trees and stumps with por.
tons of the roots are found there. converted
into stone as dense and hard MS the finest agate.
Every cell and every fibre of tho former WOOD is
preserved in stone. !. forest of trees appears to
have been entombcd in the rocks and to have
been preserved by a slow process of replacement

The Now massachusetts Hill Relating to tho
Practice or Medicine.

BosToN. Jan. Ono measure to come before
the present Legislature has aroused more dis
cussion than the bill to amend the law regulat-
ing the practice of medicine, and most of tho
talk has been based upon a misunderstanding OF
tho matter. The impression got abroad that the
bill Is aimed especially at Christian Scientists;
but this is denied by DR.. e. II. Harvey. Secretary
Of the State Board of Registration In Medicine
and tho Trainer OF the bill. DIR. Harvey said to
THE L correspondent:
~ have never said the bill was aimed at
Christian Scientists, but only at persons prac-
ticing medicine in violation of the law. In tho
three years of my administration have had no
fault TO find with Christian Scientists as vio-
iators OF the lazy except In one or two cases, and
IN those cases tho offenders promptly conformed
TO the requirements OF the law. The board has
no knowledge that any Christian Scientists Mt

chuscits on the same plano with New York and
other States in which similar laws are now OPP

the present law was intended to make. but clears
up the obscurities and uncertainties of tho old
law, which have caused so much trouble in the
courts in securing convictions"
In the present law tho number OF subjects on

9 OF tho bill requires tho licensed practitioner
to exhibit his certificate, OF registration and TO

in which he practices. Section 4 defines more
clearly than the old law the the penalties of vio-

The point in a nutshell is that Christian Sci
