HoNekoNe's OPIUM FARMER.
Position Lasts Only a Year, but
Makes ito Holder Rich.

From the Chicago Times-Herald.l
In the colony of Hongkong there is
a Chinaman who, while his brief reign
lasts, is spoken Of by the quarter OF
million of his fellow countrymen ON
the island with bated breath. To these
Celestials, subjects of Queen Victoria,
the Emperor of China is not nearly
so great man as the opium farmer,
and the queen herself, compared with
his mightiness of the drug" is in
their eyes only far-away sovereign,
not half so imposing.
In order to regulate to some extent
the importation Of opium into Hong
kong. and to simplify the collection
of duties, the British government
several years ago decided to place
the whole business in the hands of one
man. Realizing. however, the ire
mendous and arbitrary power that
could be welded by single individual
in such position, 1t was also decided
that the office should only be held
one year, and that no person should
be allowed to keep it for more than
a single term. So it was announced
that the government was prepared to
accept bids for the privilege.
Since that time the selection of az
opium farmer" as he Is called, has
become an annual event. The highest
bid generally ranges from 100000 to

From the New York SUM-
Sixty Stalwart students have taken
up forestry as profession under the
instruction Of the division of forestry
Of the department Of agriculture. They
have been at work in the forests Of
various states during the past summer
under the supervision of trained for
esters, with results of marked value
to the division, chiefly in the prepare
ton Of working plans and the study
Of commercial trees. The students.
while living in the lumber camps, get
certain amount Of hunting and fish,
ing, but the line between work and
play Is closely drawn. All expenses
are betrayed by the government while
the men are in the field. During the
past summer work has been done In
the Adirondacks, the State Of Wash
ington and in Maine. The ultimate
object is to prepare the students for
service in the forestry division of the
United States government
Aside from the demand created for
trained foresters by the newly awak-
ened enthusiasm of the department Of
agriculture in stopping the destruction
Of the forests OF the United States.
