Long Lee, Chicago Chinaman. has
been sentenced to work out a 500 fine.
at the rate of sl.5O a week day in the
house Of correction. But the authori-
ties have no work for him to do. and
the unfortunate celestial is begin
ming to fear that old age with his
stealing step may claw him in his
clutch before the amount is dis
charged. No wonder the simple chill
dren of the east are often lost in
wonder and amazement at the strange
workings of western justice

An illustration OF the present and
prospective value of timber lands is
furnished by the Charleston News and
Courier, which tells. in a recent issue,
how an unusually large white oak log,
measuring forty feet in length and
forty-two inches in diameter at the
smaller end, was recently shipped from
Savannah to a northern firm. It's
value, says our contemporary, when
simply sawed into lumber for shipping
was estimated at s240 Smaller logs
bring equally good prices in proper
ton, CT course, In recent years timber
lands in the south bearing similar
lumber have been sold for 81 and even
less per acre. Landowners who dis
posed of or neglected their forest lands
played losing game in those years,
but, now that the folly of such busi-
ness has been brought home to them.
it is not unlikely that they will profit
by past lessons and preserve and nur-
ture their growing timber Viewing
recent developments In the lumber
markets, it may not be amiss to sug-
gest that the farmers having about for
ty acres or more on which oak is now
growing could do nothing better than
leave 1t alone, for 1t is more than prob
able that they will find It a good in
terest payer, II not the most valuable
part Of their farm, In few years to
come.

The extraordinary improvements
which have recently been made in BIZ
cycle lamps makes it the more sur
prising that the locomotive headlight
has been so long neglected, since moth
ing Is more important than that the
engineer should see as far ahead along
the track as possible. The introduc-
ton OF electricity promises to
do away with one OF the chiei
dangers that now attend rail
road travelling by night. OBJ

known dangers that the darkness COW

ample time to bring the train to a
