Experiments to Re Made in Breeding
Angora Goats.
C0NNELLSVILLE, Pa. April Prob
ably the first attempt to introduce Angora
goats into Pennsylvania as a means of
profit on waste or timber lands. is to be
tried on the crests OF the Chestnut Ridge,
on the reservations owned by Henry Hus-
ton, the well-known lumber dealer. in all
Huston has probably 10000 acres of timber
lands. So far these lands have never been
used for any purpose except to strip off the
timber. Now Huston proposes TO import
a herd of Angora goats and to allow them
the privilege OF roaming over the tracts,
feeding on the brush and the grass.
The first herd of goats will be brought
here within a few weeks and placed on the
reservations. 1t is thought that the ami
mails will not need any attention. The out
come OF the experiment will be watched
with interest in this end of Pennsylvania
at least.

4t Was Found on the Plains and Used
 on Many Ceremonial Occasions.
 The Bible which was used in the ceremonies beginning the celebration in this city of the fiftieth anniversary of the state of California has history that is very interesting. In 1849 a young man in coming across the plains found a pile of books by the side of the road with B stick stuck among them bearing a note telling travellers D help themselves. The young maA in searching through the old volumes found handsome Bible. which he con Eidered shame to be left upon the areary= desert. He placed it in his pack and carried it to Sacramento. He presented it to Dr. R. H. Mcdonald, who at that time conducted drug store in that city. Some time after the advent of the Bible into Sacramento Q meeting was called in that city for the purpose of founding lodge Of Masons. That was on Jan. 8, 1850, and the lodge was to be known as Connecticut Lodge, No. T5. It chanceG that the meeting place was adjoining the premises occupied by Dr. McDon. aid. When it was convened it was found that there was no Bible at hand with which to conduct the ceremonies and Dr. Mcdonald presented the book that had been given to him by the young man for the lodges use. On the 18th of the following April the grand lodge of Masons was formed and he Bfhle again played an important part in the ceremonies. After the form ation of the grand lodge the name oi gonneet2sut lodge was changed to Te- hama lodge, No 3. but eszer since it's establishment on Jan. 8, 1850, the Bi- ble has remained in the possession of the lodge E.

Mnoh of the Gum in tho States Corao&
 From the Everglades

Much Of the Gum In tho ssasoe S"~N~
 From the Everglades.
 Florida is in a fair way to become the rival in camphor production of China, Japan and Formosa. Hereto fore the world has derived it's supplies of that gum from the countries named. but of the vast camphor forests that once existed In these regions but a small portion remains. This Is the direct result of the wanton waste in the process praetieed for obtaining the gum from the tree. Camphor is usual 1y obtained by boiling the chips of the wood and roots and bark in great ket. SIes with water and condensing the vos 5atilized gum on rushes suspended over the kettles. In this process the entire tree is cut down and even the roots dug ap, but in Florida it was found that the gum could be commercially pro- duced from the leaves and twigs, sev- enty-seven pounds of which yield one pound of gum. Hence the bearing tree need not be disturbed or injured in any way. as the foliage It bears is very dense and may be thinned down one' half without scarcely being noticed. The tree. besides. bears q very great amount of pruning without injury. It as an evergreen. and makes three growths a year-in April. June and 0c- fober. The tree removes nothing from Ehe soil, the gum being formed entire- 1y from the gases of the atmosphere, and hence the leaves, when deprived Of their eamphor and returned to the soil, constantly enrich the soil. which in time requires no fertilizing what erer. Aside from it's commercial uses the camphor tree is one of the most ornamental ever cultivated, it's beauti- ful shape being equaled by the arbor- vitae only. It's lower branches He on the ground. while the top forms a per- feet cone. The flowers are small. but exceedingly pretty. while the leaves are Of ? beautiful pale, glossy green color.

Throughout the disturbances recently
caused by our subjects in connection with

a conflict Of forces, it mas been found
necessary to afford protection TO all the
foreign ministers in Pekin- On repeated
occasions the Tsung Ii Yamen sent notes

has not yet been restored TO order and
precautionary measures may not secure
absolute safety, the foreign ministers are
being consulted as to the proposed plan OF

Tien Tsin for temporary shelter, so that
they may be free from apprehensiye
anxiety or fear.
We hereby command Jung Lu to ap
point, as d preliminary step, trustworthy

gether with reliable and efficient troops
shall at such time as the foreign ministers
may agree upon for leaving Pek.n, escort
