The THIRTY.POURTH REGIMENT.
A Manila Newspaper Says They Arc Well
built Fellows,

The American, the largest daily news
paper published in Manila, under date
of October Is, contained the following
article referring to the 34th infantry,
raistd at Fort Logan, which reached
Manila on the transport Belgian King,
after Il ~ day voyage from San Fran
cisco, over the Honolulu route, on the
14th of October:
1.-THE expedition was in command OF
Lieutenant Colonel Howe, while Lieu
tenant Coleman was acting as commits
sary and quartermaster. The second
battalion, which arrived on the Colum-
bia, were brought ashore yesterday af.
ternoon and are quartered at the old
California barracks, where they will
await the landing of the rest of the
regiment, when it will be assigned.
''The Belgian King experienced no
rough weather, and Lieutenant Cole
mar said: 1T was a pleasure trip; it
was really a dream
1.-The men of the 34th are all we'll built,
athletic looking fellows and are proud
of their officers as the latter are of the
men.
THE work of collecting and arming
this regiment has been remarkable
said Colonel Kennon, commanding the
regiment, 1T is a most excellent set of
officers and men. 1t is the first purely
western regiment; for the men come
from the states where we don't get many
soldiers in time of peace, but in times of
wal the mountains and plains come
right to the front and do their part.
Physically the men are above the aver
age in recruits, and best of all they are
half prepared for service. Their west
ern life has taught them to feel no hard
ship in campaign under the stars, and
they know how to handle horses and
wagons and are accustomed to life in
the open fields. Besides, they are ex-
perienced in the use Of weapons, which
is much of a soldiers education. In
fact they were half trained before they
entered camp"

FOREST RESERVE TIMBER.
How 1t May Be Seoured-Companies Are
Barred,

Forest Reserve Superintendent Bun
ain has received the following instruc-
tons from the commissioner of the gen.
eral land office as to the cutting of tim
Der on government forest reserves:
Referring to the provisions of the act
of June A, 1897, for the free use of tim
Der, as regulated by paragraph q, page
-, of the rules and regulations govern
ing forest reserves, you are advised as
follows:
ANY person authorized by the said
act to secure forestry reserve timber for
his own individual needs may procure 1t
through a sawmill operator or other
person acting as his agent direct, by
whoever procured, whether by his own
hands or an agent direct, he should first
confer or communicate with you direct
ly, or through the nearest forestry Off
and value of the timber proposed to be
cut, the place where and the purpose for
which the said timber will be used;
stating what sawmill or agent, if any,
will be employed in doing the cutting,
removing and saving, and pledging that
no more shall be cut from the reserva-
ton thar he needs for use on his OWL
land or claim, and hat none h be
sold, disposed of nor used on any other
but his own land or claim; and guaran-
teeing to remove and safely dispose of
all tops, brush and refuse cutting, be-
| yond danger of fire therefrom.
The bona fide settler and miner, each
| acting in his individual capacity, is not
precluded from taking his timber to the
sawmill; nor is the sawmill proprietor
precluded from receiving or saving or
| otherwise handling the timber for that
| settler or miner; provided the sum
| charged therefor is exclusive of any
| charge of the timber itself, and is no
more than a reasonable sum to cover
time and labor expended and all legiti-
mate expenses incurred in saving or
handling it. The charge cannot be paid
from any part of the timber, or with
any other timber taken from any public
lands.
THE stumpage value is the value OF
the timber in the standing tree, and it is
determined by the locality and size OF
the timber, the commercial use foi
which the timber is sought, the demand
therefor, etc.
THE said provision for the free use OF
timber contemplates individual use
only. Therefore, mining corporations
lumber companies and any organiza.
ton engaged in extensive business en-.
terprises requiring vast amounts o.
timber, are not entitled to any of tn;
benefits thereof.
Residents of towns and village:
within or near a forest reservation, hav
ing railroad facilities and other con.
venient access to sawmills and lumbel
yards where lumber and fuel can b.
procured by purchase, are not entitled
to the benefits of the provision of thu
law for the free use of TIMBER

rne Taxam.ter 8 snccess.

The statement is confidently made that the taxameter. or cab-fare indi> cator. will quickly be introduced in all the civilized cities of the world. It appears that in both Berlin and Lon don, where the taxameter has been adopted, it has been as popular with the "cabby" as with the fare" The reason of this surprising fact is that this system of automatic fare indica, tion effectively and permanently in creases the number of fares. Many persons object to ride in cabs because of the possibility of an altercation with the driver as to the amount of the fare when the trip is ended. Ali that is put at an end by the taxame- ter, which shows, in plain sight, the distance traversed and the fare to be paid. Consequently more persons are riding in cabs today than ever rode before, and the increase in the number of fares is looked upon as permanent. The taxameter also enables the pro- prietor to control and c4 eek the daily receipts and efficiency tf the vehicle or the distance covered it. More over. since the apparatus calculates the fare on the basis of the distance covered, the driver earns his money quicker according to the rate at which he drives, a system equally profitable and agreeable to both passenger and driver It is said that the cab pro- prietor who has once introduced the fare indicator can and may no longer l conduct his business without it. In Berlin, where the taxameter introduc- .ion at first was strongly opposed by masters and men, $500 of the city's $500 frst-class cabs are now fitted with them. The cab proprietors pay a1.25 month for each instrument

FROM THE FROG.
One May Get Some Valuable Lessons ia
 Swimming.

OhS Aay GeI some Valuable Lessons ia
 Swimming.
 Washington Star "A swimmer. no matter whether he is beginner or an expert cannot improve upon the ad- vice of his great grandfather, which is to go to a brook or swamp and study the manner and methods of the frog, 2 remarked an ex-ehampion of the New York Athletic club to writer for the Star recently. 'The most expert swim mers in the world are tyros compared to the laziest bullfrogs. The difficulty with all swimmers is that they spoil the effect of the stroke by the recovery. When frog starts off he draws his legs carefully and slowly up under him un- til he is in the position of man sit, ting on his launches. Then he sud denly gives a mighty spring in the water, kicking his legs out, behind him, but almost directly crosswise. After the kicks his legs are slowly drawn together by his motion through the water until they hang out behind him in a perfectly rigid form. Every toe of his web feet is held out as straight as an arrow and then nothing retards his motion through the water. Then again he slowly and carefully araws his legs in and repeats the per- formance. You will notice that in drawing the legs up to his body for a second kick the frog recedes a little. This is owing to the action of the up- per leg on the water, and it corre- spends exactly with the similar move ment on the part of a man. The first thing frog does is to give his body a good start through the water, and he holds himself in such a way that he gets the whole value of the stroke. A man starts out with just such a kick. but after he has gone two or three feet he will begin to swing his hands for ward or draw up his legs in such a fashion that they offset the whole value of his work. He stops his own body half way before the effect of the stroke has spent itself"
