Preventative Forestry Methods Will
Soon eecome a. Necessity.
CHICAGO, Jan. 1S-The American
Lumberman, in its issue of Jan. 10, will
print an exhaustive article on the de-
cline in the pine lumber product of mills
in the Northwest. The total number cf
feet cut in 1890 was 5.4S5, 261, 600, against
6,056, coo, 600 in 1889. Commenting upon the
situat;an the Lumberman says: During
the last two years there has been eyery
inducement for the mills to turn out a
heavy product, and yet there was slight
falling off in 1899, as compared with 1893
and a heavy decrease in 1900. Every re-
source was strained to make heavy OUT
put, but without result, except to prove
that at last the closing years of the
white pine industry of the Northwest,
as one OF great magnitude, are at hand.
With such results it must be admitted
that the product will decrease annually
until it reaches a point where by the
adoption of preservative forestry methods
it can be permanently maintained
The decrease is not confined to any par.

BLACK AND TAN.
Meeting with a Man Who Wore Shoes
 That ross-Matcbed.

Clearly it was not the paying of a freak bet but a freak of fortune that had compelled this man to wear the shoes he had on, which were one black and the other tan Nor did they match In shape and size much closer than they did in color; but they were a close pair in dilapidation, and (thought the man approached by the wearer of this cross matched footgear), if that tan shoe could be backed they'd do:
 they'd do better, anyhow. There was a place in town, he knew, where they changed tan shoes to black, and he told the man with the odd shoes where this was, as nearly as he could remem- Der, giving him at the same time a sum sufficient to enable him to get the shoes mated up in color; not much was required, because there was here only half pair to be treated Clearly the man with the shoes was pleased. De- spite his seeming lack of pecuniary re- sources, as evidenced not alone by his odd shoes, but by various other cor roborative indications about him. he was not an uncheerful person, but the receipt of the money made him more cheerful still. As to whether he Would actually devote the money thus ob
 tained to having that tan shoe made black, however, or whether, more or less careless of his personal appear ance, he would spend it for something ,lse likely to give him a greater meas ure of immediate enjoyment, the giver of it found himself unable-with cer. tainty-to determine.-New York Sun

ELECTRIC STORM.
Mining Engineers Dangerous Experience
 in Alps Mountains.


 Electric storms gre peculiar to high mountains. There is no rain, no light ming, no thunder, and usually no wind. Nothing to be heard, and nothing to be seen except the gathering clouds. A mining engineer, visiting a tunnel located on a mountain side at an ele- vation of 3,200 feet, describes his sen s2tions during one of these storms All alone he was climbing up to the tunnel. where he wished to examine vein of ore. Black clouds began to gather on the horizon, and were soon rolling about the mountain side be- low him A calm prevailed then an unusual stiffness seemed to be in the air. Steadily the clouds rolled up the mountain side like a flood of black water. The stones, as he stepped on them, began to crackle and snap, like dry wood in a fire. Realizing these unusual conditions, he hurried to the sheltering tunnel above him. His hair felt as if swarm of flies had settled in it. When he tried to brush them away with his hand he found each hair standing almost straight The stroking of his hair increased the pe- culiar sensation he experienced; and tingling from head to foot, the now thoroughly frightened man ran into the tunnel. No sooner had he passed the entrance than the peculiar sen sations ceased. Stepping outside to investigate, soon afterward, he re- eeived a shock that sent him reeling back into the tunnel. where he re- mained for over an hour before the storm passed. Some electrical storms seem to be formed in strata If a hu- man being should make such con nection as to draw the charge from one of the layers, he would be instant ly killed.-Answers

EFATHERo HONEST.
In Most Cases They Bought Tkeir Lands
 from the Indians.

sometimes historians tell Us that it was only Dutchnen and not En glish- men who bought the red mans land instead o, stealing it. Such state ments have been made in New York
 but If We pass on to Philadelphia we hear that it was only Quakers who were thus scrupulous, and when We arrive in Baltimore we learn that it was only Roman Catholics. In point Of fact. it was the invariable custom Of European settlers on this Atlantic coast to purchase the lands on which they settled and the transaction was usually recorded in a deed to which the Sagamores affixed their marks Nor was the affair such a mocxery as it may at first thought seem to us. says writer in the Atlantic Monthly. The red man got what he sorely coy- eted, steel hatchets and grindstopes glass beads and rum, perhaps muskets and ammunition, while he was apt to reserve sundry rights of catching game and fish. struggle was in- evitable when the white mans agricul
 ture encroaehed upon and exhausted the Indians hunting ground; bat other circumstances usually brought it on long before that point was reached. The age of iron superseded the stone age in America by the same law of progress that from lime immemorial has been bearing humanity onward from brutal savagery to higher and more perfect life. In the course of it our forefathers certainly busted and dispossessed the red men, but they did not dc it in a spirit of robbery.

CUlM BANKS AFlRE.
Coal Dust Near Wilkesbarre Burning for
 Twenty-Five Years.

IWenty-F1Se 1ears.
 Culm is curious stuff, and there seems to be an abundance of 1t. Peo- pie who travel through the mining re- gLons always inquire about the great every direction, some of them 200 feet in height. These piles of culm often catch fire either by accident or spon- taneous combustion, and it is almost impossible to eXtinguish them. At night the red glare is visible all over the valleys. Near Wilkesbarre culm bank has been burning for 25 years Various attempts have been made to Quench the fire, but it is just as bright and vigorous today as it was a quar- having abandoned its efforts to put out the fire, feeds it regularly by dumping fresh culm upon the flames. If this was not done the fire would eat its way into the great bank and ultimate ly break out in several places; but as long as the surface fire is fed with fresh fuel it does not burrow Into the heap. Formerly eulm was considered dead waste, but some years ago a furnace was invented in which it can be utilized for steaming purposes after water has passed over 1t and foreign substances washed out Therefore, more of the mining companies have erected washeries at their culm piles, and many manufacturing establish ments have come into this neighbor- hood solely because they are afle to use it as fuel.-Chicago Record.
