HAwAIrs DANGER.

Professor Koebele, the Territorial
entomologist, has very decided ideas
on forest preservation. Practically
he says that IL the denudation of the
forests is not stopped it will simply
be a question of time when rhes. Is
lands will be uninhabitable by man.
He says that unless check is give g
the awful destruction of forests large
areas Of fertile sections of the Islands
will become barren-mere deserts. He
says the annual wash Of soil in.o the
sea, which could not happen were the
forests maintained. is enormous. The
warning OF the Territory's learned
scientist should be needed. 1t is to be
hoped that the voluminous repor.
which Prof Koebele is now preparing
on forest preservation may be printed
by the Territory and given wide cir
culation throughout the group.
Indeed. the water and forestry ques-
tons will both force themselves on
the legislature and should be thor
oughly considered from every point
Of view and scientifically and intelli-
gently acted upon These ara matters
on which there can be no division OF
sentiment Party politics 10 not enter
into their discussion nor their final
Only the future welfare
Of the Islands and all The people
should be considered We hope that
here may be men in the Legislature
broad enough and liberal enough to
ook al these matters squareiy and
airy and give to them the investisa-
ion which they merit.

BEDDING.
AN WATERING SERVICE.

AN INSPIRING SERVICE.
 Unusually interesting services marked the placing of new pulpit in the Epis- copal church on the Ridge, last Sunday afternoon. This pulpit WAS presented by Mrs Sarah K. Tod of Cleveland, O., in memory of her daughter, Miss Charlotte Tod who for several years was member of the family of Miss Julia H. Sanford on the Ridge. Miss Tod, during her short reside nee in Bedding took great interest in the welfare of Christi church and was regular attendant at its ser vices, so that TO more fitting memorial could have been presented than the one which was dedicated last Sunday. The dedicatory services were conducted by Rev Mr Jefferson, who at present has charge of the Bedding parish. in connec- tlon with his own at Lyons Plains. He was assisted in the services by Rev MT Linsley, rector of Trinity church, New town. The lattei's sermon, the first from the new pulpit, was an eloquent and instructive one. He dWelt at length upon the power that the true preacher has when, like St Paul, he breaches Christ and Christ's love from the pulpit. He closed his discourse with remarks appropriate to the occasion, re- ferrlng in fitting terms to Miss Tod's ex- emplary Christian life and to the gener- osity which prompted this beautiful memorial. The church was beautifully decorated with roses, chrysanthemums, smilax and lilies of the valley. Besides the regular choir, the Misses Sarah and Olivia Sanford, Miss Wakeman and Dr Smith, members of the Methodist choir, were present to assist in carrying out the special service of music arranged and ably conducted by the organist, Mr Gregory. People of all denominations and from all sections of the town 'wera present and the church was filled. Among the people from out of town who were present at the service were Mrs Tod and Ms, Ethel Tod of Cleveland, Nr and Mrs Jonathan BulkelY of Brooklyn and Mrs James R. Shelf cid, and Mr and Mrs Frederick E. Driggs of New York and Aaron Sanford from Newtown. Taking 1t all in all it was one of the most inter- esting and noteworthy events of the many that have occurred in the history of this church.
