Willis F. Cunningham prior to his death.
1t seems that Mr.. Cunningham was stop

he was taken sick on the lst of March.
He was taken to a Tacoma hospital on
the and and was operated on that even
ing and seemed to be getting along we'll
until the evening of the 9Th when he took
a turn for the worse. When Mr.. Doss-
key visited him the next day he could
not make a sound above a whisper. Mr..
Dosskey considered his condition alarm
ing and after consulting with the Han
leys, decided to notify Mrs. Cunningham
at Perham and F. S. Cunningham at this
place, which, as we understand, was the
first intimation that they had had of his
condition and operation. As soon as thew
had been visited by Mr.. Dosskey, Mrs.

make,hift wedding Rings.

MakG0h11t EtAnBDs
Curious instances have been cited
where makeshift substitutes for the
conventional wedding ring have been
utilized during the marriage ceremony.
One such instance occurred some time
ago in a nearby town, where the ring
was missing. Nothing better being
available as a substitute, a curtain
ring was used, and on still another &C.
casion the ring handle Of the church
key was utilized. A couple in this state
used in such an emergency a ring
formed from the outer edge Of a coin
and which had been carried by some
one present as q curiosity.
A gallant best man came to the res
cue at a recent wedding, when the ring
was not forthcoming at the right time.
He drew from his tie the slender stick
pin that had been adjoining 1t, and,
bending the wire into ring shape, hand
ed the %improvised wedding ring to the
distracted groom.
A horseshoe nail bent to the shape of
a ring is said to bring a great deal Of
luck to the owner, and the lead cramp
ring worn six centuries ago has given
place to various rings now worn to
prevent and cure rheumatism.-Cincin.

AS many Of my friends asked me to
write them when l reached here, feel
as though | ought to write; but l have
not the time to write eachone Individual
ly and SO will write a letter to the PRESS
which will be read by them ALL
l am getting along we'll and hope that
all of my Stark county friends are enjoy
ing good health. l presume you are
having considerable cold weather. The
coolest weather we have had here was 9
below zero. The average winter tenn
perature has been 20 to 40 above zero.
There has been no snow worth mention
ing. Last week a quarter of an inch fell,
and on the 23rd of February a good deal
Of rain fell. The creeks overaowed
their banks in a few places. You often
hear people speak of the mud as being
knee-deep, but such is not the case here,
with all the rain fall we have. The win
ter is almost over. The grass in our
yard is getting green. 1t has been such
fine weather that it has not seemed like
winter at all.
| suppose the friends will wonder
what we are doing. Well, l will tell you.
We are not herding sheep or pitching
hay in the cold. We are in the dry goods
business and find trade good. If trade
continues to increase we will have to en-
large the store.
Papa and mama are just as healthy as
ever. Papa says that the "old man" has
gained in health and now weighs 100
pounds. They wouldn't leave here for
anything.
1t is very pleasant back here. There
is something going or all the time. !

SidmOre's Trouble.

The arrest of w. B. Sidmore on the
evening of March 10 on a charge OF rape
caused quite a little excitement in Dick
inson. The girl being but a little over
IS years of age is under the age Of con-
semitic in this state and the fact of
her being motherless and for some years
doing the best she could in keeping
house for her father and caring for
younger children of the family, made her
position seem most lamentable.
Sidmore had his hearing on Monday
and was bound over to the April term of
district court in the sum of $4,000.
After due consideration the father gave
his consent for the marriage of his
daughter to Sidmore. Accordingly on
Thursday the bail was reduced and the
marriage took place,
The PRESS hopes that w. b: Sidmore
will show by his actions in the future that
he has fully repented of the past and is
determined to live it down.
1t has been a hard blow to the father,
but he is bearing up we'll and trying 10

the Senate.
A successful lawyer, fluent writ
er and able counsellor, he has built
for himself lasting record. He is
better known by the people at large
by the excellent work he did on the
Paris peace commission.
Some two months ago he suffered
a slight ebrasion of the skin on one
of his feet. Blood poisoning set in
and kidney troubles followed, until
it became apparent that medical
skill could do him no good. He
chung to life tenaciously, but on the
evening of the z7th the end came
peacefully.
Thus has passed away another o.
the truly great men of this genera

Wealth in Trees

Washington. Nov - The division
of customs and lnSular anairs of fur
war department has made PUBIC o
summary Of hr frs report o} tAe Pm
| ippine bureau of fOrestr} organized j.
its present form under as 1rier of thu
military governor dated April II 1900.
The first WORK wds confined 10 aScer-
tanning the condition of the records
received from the Spanish govern
ment under which that bureau had
not only had the care Of the forest
but also the survey of the public
lands.
The laws in force at the time Of
American occupation are said to have
been in line with the most advanced
forestry legislation OF Europe, but
were not fully enforced, and licensed
cutting any and everything. The re
suit was that valuable rubber, gutta
percha and ylang ylang trees were
taken and even the most valuable used
as firewood. The old regulations were
translated and revised, taking effect
in their new form July | last. They
provide for a system of licensing by
which permits to cut timber can be
secured, the fees being based upon
the different varieties, of which 1856
are named in the order. After the
regulations were promulgated more
than fifty additional species of trees
became known and others are being
brought to the knowledge of the bu'
reau almost every week. The direct
or, CAPTAIN Ahern, estimates the TO-
tai number of tree species in the arch
ipeligo at nearly 900.
There is no pure forest of any one
species, rarely more than three or four
trees of one variety being found
grouped together, so tha5 lumber
man looking for a shipload Of one
kind of timber would find it practic-
lily impossible to cut that and no
,ther, and cargOes must be assembled
from different points. Captain Ahern
states that from different sources OF
information he il led to believe the
public forest lands comprise from one
ouIth TO possibly one.balf Of the area
IT the Philippines, or from 2O,OOO.OO0
to 10000. 600 acres. There are fully
5000 900 acres in virgin forests owned
nv he state in the islands Of Mind0ro
