PRESERVATION OF FORESTS.

The movement for the preserva-
tion of the forests has been given
considerable impetus in late
years, and nearly every CONNER
cial, irrigation and other congress
that has met in the West has
taken action on the subject I'm
questionably there is great danger
of denudation of the mountains
and the hills of the West through
the eager enterprise of lum bermen
and through the carelessness of
campers who permit their fires to
start conhagrations; but at the
same time the situation is not
nearly so bad as the alarmists
would have us believe,
In recent issue the Tim Der
Trades journal has an article on
the timber outlook, which doubt
less is more or less prejudiced,
but still is interesting and instruc-
tive, 1t is in part as follows:
The question of forest exhaus-
tion opens up an almost unlimited
field for conjecture, and as applied
to the world generally is perhaps
a subject that might be relegated
without much consequence to the
consideration of those that come
after us a hundred years hence.
In application to the pine woods
of Northern Europe there is scope
for more immediate consideration
as it cannot be doubted that the
utilization of growing trees for
marketable purposes is proceeding
at a much faster pace than the re-
production or regrowth of the tim
ber can keep pace with This
means at some period or another
in the worlds history dearth OF
tina material-if not total extinc-
tion-at any rate devastation
that will leave nothing fit fol
merchantable purposes, and the
still immense forest tract of the
North will become worked out fol
all practicable purposes.
The contemplation of such a
state of things, as we said, carries
the Imagination to the remote fu-
ture, for we have no doubt that
the dread of such a catastrophe to
those countries where it forms the
chief industry will induce those in
authority to adopt measures that
will limit the Telling so that the
supply may not be exhausted. la
Sweden considerably more than
half of the entire country consists
of forests, part of which belongs
to the state, and the rest is private
property, the latter covering the
greatest area, The timber in the
vicinity of large waterways is, of
course, the first to fall, and when
these are used up other forests, at
one time considered too far away
for cheap transit, will be worked
and the logs sent down to the mill.

NEW USE FOR SALT.
Its Great Efficiency In ProIOnEing
Life Proved at Chicago.


Chicago, Jan. Gas result of pro-
tracted series of experiments with salt
solutions, the efficacy of which in pro-
longing life was recently announced by
Professor Loeb of the University of Chi
cago, two prominent physicians here
claim to have demonstrated that in cases
of great loss of blood by disease or injury
normal salt solution used as a restorative
will save life even when so per cent Of
the blood has been lost. The experiments,
which have been extended over period
of six months, have, according to the ply
sicians, made practicable new system
of bleeding and substitution of salt sou-
tions for persons suffering from pneumo-
MIA typhoid malaral fevers, peritonitis,
acute and chronic Bright's disease and all
heart affections resulting from the last
named complaint. Much success has fol
lowed, the physicians say, all their exper-
iments, particularly those made with
pneumonia and Bright's disease.
In their experiments the physicians
used more than 100 dogs and found it
possible to withdraw 40 per cent of the
circulation from an animal before it was
necessary to inject stimulant. The final
test was made on dog from which 90
per cent of the blood had been with
drawn. A needle connected with a salt
water apparatus containing . per cent
solution was inserted i'll the jugular vein
and second needle inserted in the juno
tion of the large veins lying close TO the
heart. After the blood had been drawn
off the salt solution was forced in around
the heart and into the vessels of the
brain. The dog was able to stand inside
of an hour and on the following day was
| able to walk

THE Booz CASE.
investigating Committee Adjourns
to Reconvene In Philadelphia.


Bristol, Pa, Jan. 6.-The congressional
committee which is investigating the al
legged hazing Of Oscar Booz completed ITS
work here late Saturday afternoon and
will reconvene in Philadelphia. Most OF
the testimony heard related to Oscar
Booz's mental, physical and personal
characteristics. Every witness called
spoke of the high character Of the young
man. He was considered in good health
before he went to West Point, and many
persons testified as to his changed condi-
tion when he returned from the academy
1t was also brought out that he was pro-
fcient in his studies.
The feature of the two sessions held
was the examination of the Rev. DIR.
Alexander Allison, pastor of the Bristol
Presbyterian church at which the Booz
family worshiped. DIR. Allison delivered
the sermon at the obsequies of Oscar
Booz in which he made what the COM
mittee thought were implied charges of
severe hazirg against cadets of West
Point. The committee had newspaper
extracts of the sermon read to the pastor,
which he pronounced as correct. The
members Of the committee, especially
Mr.. briggs of New York, tried hard to
have DIR. Allison prove the statements he
made in the sermon. This, however, he
could not do, saying he based most of his
remarks on what the family had told him
| and on what he knew of Oscar Booz him
self. DIR. Allison was closely questioned
as to the propriety Of minister of the
gospel in making statements from the
pulpit which he could not prove under
oath and which might give the country al
large an unfavorable impression of thu
National Military academy. 1t was not
the purpose Of the committee, Chairman
Dick explained to the witness, to ques
tion his honesty; but, on the contrary
they We're trying to get down to rocl
| bottom facts.
