Preservation of Forests.

The United States geological survey, which is investigating the forests of the country, finds that 3I per cent of the land is wooded In the various states the percentages vary from in South Dakota to : in Kansas. to IS in Illinois, to P in California, to 40 to 80 along the Atlantic border and to7 in Washington. The vast amount of tim Der in the United States made people careless about taking measures for its preservation, and it is generally agreed that if things had been allowed to go on in their natural course timber famine would have resulted in two or three generations. For several years past the government has been laboring to avert such an outcome, and further steps in this direction are now agi- tated. A great scarcity of timber would be almost as unfortunate in it's effects on the water supply as on the industries which use lumber. Hum- boldts warning is still true: "In fell ing trees growing on the sides and summits of mountains, men under all climates prepare for subsequent gen. eratiOns two calamities at Once--a lack of firewOOd and lack of water"

PHILADELPHIA, May 7.-Another
chapter in the famous Lancaster coun-
terfeiting conspiracy was made public
to-day by the arrest of Harry Taylor
charged with passing the counterfeit
twenty dollar notes found in circula-
ton last week. Taylor was captured
by Matthew S. Griffin, of the secret
service, and when confronted with the
evidence of his guilt, confessed his
part in the conspiracy. He was given
a hearing before United States Com
missioner Edmunds and committed in.
default of $4,000 bail for trial. Tay-
lor admitted having passed all the
spurious notes of the Manning head de-
nomination recently discovered in this
city.
Harry Taylor is a brother of Arthur
Taylor, who is now awaiting sentence

stamps and the famous cONnterfelit

WASHINGTON, D. c., May 7.-'Mr.
and Mrs. William Ricketts, have issued
cards announcing the marriage of
their daughter, Florence Lucille, TO Mr..
John Francis Brice, of New York, on
Tuesday, April "A. Mr. and Mrs Brice
will be at home after June 7, at No.
693 Fifth avenue, New York City"
The foregoing announcement APP
peared in the Washington papers to-
day, and furnished the first informa-
ton to the public that the younger son
of the late Senator Calvin S. Brice, who
formerly lived in Lima, o., has taken
unto himself a wife. The marriage
partook somewhat of the flavor of ro-
nance and has created a sensation.
William Ricketts,, the father of the
bride, occupies a minor position in one
of the government departments in this
city. His daughter is in the chorus of
an operate company now playing in
Boston, and at the conclusion of the
present season will be at home with
her husband at the Brice mansion in
New York City.
The new Mrs. Brice is young and
pretty. She is small in stature and a
decided brunette. She was educated
in the Georgetown convent in this city,
and two or three years ago began the
study of operate music, her voice be-
ing contralto.
1t developed to-day that she and
young Brice had been engaged ten
mon.ns prior to their marriage, and
the son of the late Senator had been
going from city to city of late impor-
tuning her TO marry him. 1t seems
that she finally consented, and on the
23d utimo agreed to have the nuptial
knot tied. This occurred in Whining
ton, Delaware, the ceremony having
been performed by Rev. NJ. McCoudy.
The manager of the company was taken
into the secret which gradually leaked
out and reached the brides parents
in Washington. Confirmation of the
news Of the marriage of their daughter
was obtained a few days ago. and then
followed the public announcement.

CLARKSBURG, W. Va, May 7.-This
city was to-day the scene of the Re-
publican district convention, held to
select delegates to represent the First
Congressional district at the National
Republican convention in Philadelphia
in June.
There was a large attendance, espe-
cially of candidates for State, district
and county Offices. These candidates
were accompanied by their friends and
campaign managers, and all together,
made quite an imposing array.
The convention was to have opened
in the morning, but owing to the fail
ure of the delegation from Braxton
county to arrive, the meeting was post
poned till 8 p. M
At that hour, there was an immense
crowd in the hall, but there was not
much interest, for it was a foregone
conclusion who would be selected, the
bosses having fixed up a non-break-
able, inelastic slate away in advance.
On this slate had been indelibly writ
ten the names "Horkheimer' and
'O'Brien" so large that he who ran,
though blindfolded, might read.
Prayer was offered in opening, after
which George Cole, of Lewis county,
was made chairman, and George Work,
of Sistersville, secretary The select
ing of Norris Horkheimer, of Wheel
ing, and D. V. O'Brien, of Braxton
county, for delegates, and W. f. Nor
rison, of Braxton county, and Andrew
Carney, of Ohio county, as alternates,
was the work of but few minutes.
A platform, already built, was drag
ged in, and adopted without dissent
ing murmur. 1t endorses Mckinley
and instructs for him, and endorses
the course of Capt. Dovener in Con-
gress.
