Chicago, Ill.
Seeing that some of my old school
mates are making reports from their
various summer homes il seems to me
that | would break no rules of my
timidity by writing a few lines for
that paper Of which Kentuckians and
their friends are, and of a right ought
to be, proud-THE CITIZEN. Your
correspondent is spending his vsca-
ton at Moody's Bible School, corner
Of La Sale aud Chicago avenue, Chi
cago, Ill. We have some three or four
hundred students from various parts
of the world. The school is deeply
spiritual. This in manifested in the
song service, in the prayers, in the
school work and in the godly con,
vorsation Of faculty and students.
Ny Kentucky friends will look Gu
rious when I tell then we have no
supper" here, but whom tell them
we have dinner at $50 P. M. that will
explain. "But what do you do a noon
mealr my friends will enquire. We
have lunch"
Chicago is a great place for soup.
You can find "soup houses" aud "free
soup" signs in several districts. Soup
was the first dish your correspondent
tasted at the Institute" But soup is
not the only dish we have. Many OF
the vegetables and fruits which Ken
tuckians enjoy are found on Chicago
tables.
Among my new made acquaintan'
COS is staunch Kentuckian who came
here six years ago. He was as glad

ment of Science Mt Boston last sum

poses as subdivisions OF the subject,
~ Forest areas; ~ classification as

according to species, and az forest
products and commerce in them. lie
suggests that the American Association
should begin its international work by
investigating the resources of Amerl-

political economy of the United States,
and that the latter be laid before the

which is to meet at Berlin this year.
From the United States Geological
Survey, now engaged in forest surveys
in the Northwestern part OF the United
States, Prof. Brewer has received
official intelligence that the general
work of forest preservation is STEADILY
advancing. The present administration
of the reservations is described T
effective, and the sentiment Of the
people of the region has undergone
decided change in favor of preserving
the forests. The surveys are being
rapidly pushed, and the police system
is proving effective. The. Black Hills

GoIernment by Injunction.

Thou shalt not take the name of the
Lord thy God in vain,
Thou shalt not kill
Thou shalt not steal.
Thou shalt not bear false witness.
Thou shalt not covet." r.,-,
By this we learn that seven 96 the
ten edicts promulgated by the Infinite
Being are lnjunctions.

reasonably high authority on which to

TAMPA oIeARMAKERs WIN.
A Virtual Revelation in Making Clear
HaNana. CIRars There.


TAMPA. Fla. August 1s.-After a
combined strike and lockout which last
ed i've weeks, and during which TWEEN
ty-two, cigar factories have been closed
and 5000 cigarmhkers idle. the differ
ences between the employees and em-
plOyers were finally settled to-day. The
manufacturers granted every demand
made upon them and the changes rem
dered necessary by these concessions
viii amount virtually TO a revolution in
the methods OF producing clear Ha-
vana cIgarS In the United States.
The cigarmakers demanded the aboll-
ton in each factory Of the scales for
Weighing the filler tobacco issued to
them. This was the main point at Is
sue. Under the new rule which goes
into effect when the factories open to-
morrow morning, no check will be
kept upon the material issued to the
men for making into cigars. Another
demand was that all factories should
adopt a uniform scale Of wages. Hith-
erto each factory has had It's own scale,
and the cost Of production Of the same
grade Of cigars varied considerably.
This had Its effect on wholesale and
retail prices.
The resumption Of work will call for
5000 more cigaFmRkeFs than are here
at present, that number having return
ed to Cuba since the troubles began.
Another result will be that cigarmakers
win command higher wages than have
ever prevailed before.
