 Rome Correspondence Of the Chi cago Record: Public security is at a low ebb in Sicily. Energetic mea. ures have bee4 adopted to stamp out brig andage in the island, but unless these are persisted in there are slight hopes of definitely wiping away this standing disgrace of Italy. am glad to say that in the continental kingdom life and property are comparatively secure. Telegrams from Catania announce that the brigand chiefs Santangelo and Destefano have been killed and their followers dispersed in an encounter with the carabiniers, but they will as. semble again under some other blood thirsty villain. Santangelo was only 21, and he entered on his lawless ca- feer in the mountains early in 1898, after having fired on a policeman who was trying to arrest one of his friends. h September of that year he murdered a felG laborer who had refused his supplies. He joined Destefano's band in the forests around Mount Etna. h January last the two. descended to the smiling Piana di Gatania and entered a farm where several laborers were at work. They beckoned to one of them "a man named Puleo, who was said to be in relations with the police-and zold the others to stand aside. Puleo came up and was foully murdered. In May, in an attempt to capture them. one carabinier was killed and another wounded The brigands Manzelea and Castiglione were surprised by the po- lice in a house at Castellamare, near Palermo. They were wounded and ar- rested after a severe conflict. n the same district other freebooterS seized the son of well-to-do notary, took him up to the hills and obtained S4,00o for his ransom. The police, while in search of the scoundrels. came upon another band of marauders and suc- ceeded in a running fight in killing one of them and recovering much stolen property. The latest statistics give 27.9 murders per 100000 inhabitants in Sicily, while in Tuscany and upper Italy the average is about 6 per 100000.

4 Quarantine Against Cows.

A curious contest is going on in Tam pa, Fla. Residents of certain sections of the city want an exemption made of their part of the city so that COWS may graze in the streets. Other residents do not want this, and the fight is a lively one, the city administration be- ing the sufferer. So many depredations have been made recently by COWS run ming at large in the streets that the irate residents and owners of lawns and flower gardens have organized a shotgun quarantine against the cows and declare that they are going to mur- der some of them if they are not kept locked up.

The Twentieth Century.

As only few weeks of the nineteenth
century remain, it is of interest to note
that the twentieth Is to be welcomed in
with appropriate ceremonies. 1t has
been decided that the present year be-
longs to the nineteenth century. The
century now ending has been full of
sad events, but it has also produced
more than all preceding centuries to
make human life easier and happier.
Discovery, invention, education and cul-
ture have at the came time multiplied
the food supply and the comforts of life
for the masses of the people and have
developed philanthropic sentiment to
such an extent that the hard conditions
of former times are largely absolute.
Ignorance, poverty, suffering and inn
prisonment are now mitigated greatly
by the increased material prosperity of
most civilized races and by the increas-
ed disposition Of indiyiduals and states
to share with the unfortunate the pro-
ceeds Of the increased productiveness OF
labor helped by machinery. The lux.
uries Of the rich in 1900 are the neces-
sites of life for the poor in 1900. There
has been in this regard large amount
of progress in the century now ending
So far as the happiness of life depends
upon material conditions it has been
greatly promoted. Looking back ever
the changes of 100 years one cannot but
see reason to expect further desirable
changes in the CO idition Of mankind in
the century to come.

The speakership.


Reports from the Black Hills are TO
the effect that most of the members
from that region favor the reelection OF
Hon. A. u. Somers of Grant county for
speaker of the house of representatives.
With the north and the Hills for the
Hills, as seems to be the case 80 far as
heard from, his reelection would be as
sured.-Aberdeen News.
The News has another guess coming.
1t is not likely that the Black Hills
members will pledge themselves to a
COW county man for speaker 80 long as
they have such good timber to draw
from at home. Lawrence county has its
Warren and Hawgood, second termers,
capable and worthy of the honor. Gus
ter county has its. Benedict. an able law
yer, q good parliamentarian, quick to
think and act, strong, clear voice,
careful and console entious and would not
willingly make wrong decision If his
political future depended upon 1T. It
would give the Pioneer.Times great
pleasure to see him honored with the
speakership-if he wants 1t. But the
Pioneer-Times has only one request to
make of the legislat the Ii
quor license law by giving to the coun-
ties the whole amount of the license
paid within the county. If it will do
that 1t can elect its own speaker and Sc
lect a senator without fear of criticism
from this family journal. 1t is hoped
that this concession will be duly ap-
preciated.-Pioneer-Times.

Black Hills Forest Reserve.

The CHRONICLE is in receipt Of bulle.
tin from the Division of Forestry, of the
Department Of Agriculture, which con-
tains some interesting facts relative to
surveys that have been made during the
past summer.
Mr.. Z. NJ. Griffith field assistant in
the Division of Forestry of the Depart
ment of Agriculture, with large body
of assistants, has just finished making
a forest survey of the Black Hills Re-
serve in South Dakota. The summers
work, which has thus been finished, is
preliminary to the preparation of q
working plan" for the forests Of the
Reserve, which was undertaken at the
request of the Secretary Of the Interior.
1t will be submitted to him by next
spring, and, If adopted, will result in the
FIRST application of scientific forestry to
our national lands. The Black Hills
Reserve on which this examination has
been made. contains ,2ll $50 acres. No
other tract of its size in this country or
abroad presents more favorable condi-
tions for forest management than this
Reserve. Markets are accessible on all
sides, and there is large and steady de-
mand for timber. The forest, too, re-
produces itself easily and grows with
great rapidity, SO that although cutting
and burning havegone on in some places,
the problem which is presented is not,
as in southern California, that of forest
ing scanty growth and creating forest
conditions, but rather utilizing and car.
ing for an already we'll established for
est.
In the course OF the summers work
part Of TIE Reserve was examined
and on 10000 acres exact figures were
collected regarding the size and kind OF
all standing trees. From such measure
ments estimates Of the present stand
and future yield of timber can be com
piled, and on these recommendation,
for the management of the reserve viii
be based.
After leaving the Black Hills Mr.
Griffith and his student assistants wen
to southern Missouri, where they art
now beginning similar work on large
tract of hardwood land belonging to thu
Deering Harvester company. This com
pany, which applied for working plan
last spring, has undertaken the raising o
| timber for its own use.

The Irl r. Hicks 1901 Almanac.

Whatever may be said of the scientific
causes upon which the Rev. Irl r. Hicks
bases his yearly forecasts Of storm and
weather, it is remarkable fact that
specific warnings of every great storm,
food, cold wave and drouth, have been
plainly printed in his now famous AL
manac for many years. The latest start
ling proof of this fact was the destruction
of Galveston, Texas, on the very day
named by Prof Hicks in his 1900 Al
manac, as one of disaster by storm along
the gulf coasts. The 1901 Almanac, by
far the finest, most complete and beauti
full yet published, is now ready. This
remarkable book of near two hundred
pages, splendidly illustrated with charts
and half tone engravings, goes as a pre-
MUM to every subscriber who pays ont
