FORESTRY AFFAIRS.
Some of the More Recent Work of a
Government Bureau.

The result of the work of the
division of forestry has been to turn
PRACTICAL forestry in the United
States from a doubtful experiment
into an assured success. Special
studies of some Of the most important
trees, commercially, have been made,
from which can be calculated their
probable future yield Cheap meth
DDS of harvesting the present lumber
crop without injuring the productivity
of the forest have been put in opera
ton. Such concerns as the Great
Northern Paper company and The
Deering Harvester company have
been led to undertake conservative
management of their forest proper
planting, particularly in che almost
treeless western states of the plains.
has been furthered; the relation Of
the forest to the volume of streams,
erosion, evaporation, and irrigation
have been studied; matters connect
ed with irrigation and water supply
have been investigated; hopeful prog
ress has been made in the direction
of regulating grazing in the western
reserves in manner fair both to the
important interests of cattle and sheep
owners and to those who look to the
reserves as a source of continuous
supply of wood and water; and
studies Of forest fires were conducted
with view of reducing the great
yearly loss from this source, a loss
which has been estimated at $50,000,-
900.
Field work is to GO on this summer
in II states. There are in all 1877
persons engaged in the work Of the
bureau Of this number 81 are stu
dent assistants-young men, largely
college students, who expect to
enter forestry as a profession, and
who serve during the summer on
small pay for the sake Of the expert
ence gained.

one of those frail, useless, gilded
trifles known as reception chairs. She
reached out her hand and lifting her

1t was awful; a deep groan burst
from the people in the parquet I

their tight-pressed, lips and frowning

At last she came forward-she was
plump almost to stoutness. but she
moved most gracefully; her bow was
greeted with long-continued applause.
Sympathy, courteous encouragement,

general and enthusiastic outburst.

STAGE INCIDENTS.
Anecdote of John {. Owens=Generou
American Audiences.


Clara Morris, the distinguished ac-
tress, tells some interesting stories
about the stage in the May number of
the Critic. She writes:
The late John E. Owens, while act
ing in Cincinnati, had a severe cold,
was feverish, and fearing for his
throat, which was apt to give him
trouble, he had his physician-an old
friend-come behind the scenes.
The doctor brought with him an ac-
quaintance, and Mr. Owens asked
them to wait until the next act was
over to see how his throat was going
to behave.
It's always a dangerous thing to turn
outsiders lose behind the scenes, for
if they don't fall into traps or step in
to paint pots, they are sure to pop on
to the stage.
Mr.. Owens supposed the gentlemen
would stop quietly in his room; but
not they-out they wandered, on dis
covery intent. A well painted scene
caught the doctors eye. He led his
friend up to it to take a better look

DEVICES FOR COOLING THE AIR.
Wet Window Screens ard Bowls of
O,,icklinoa S,,nnAs+ed for Don-Davs.

Wet Window Screens ard Bowls of
QuickIime Suggested for Dog-Days.
There are several devices that
may be used to cool the air during
the dog-days,' writes Maria Parloa,
in The Ladies Home Journal for
August. "a modified form of the
Tattie employed in India for this pur-
pose could be made in any country
house. On frames like those used for
window screens tack enough narrow
tapes to make a support for thick
bed of grass Now cover with long
grass fastened to the frames by sew
ing with Irvine. These screens
should be placed in the windows and
kept wet The air passing through
them is cooled. A garden syringe
may be used to spray them with
water. Three or four of these
screens will do a great deal toward
keeping the air in the house cool and
fresh. A simpler screen may be
made by covering the frame, with
coarse flannel, which should be kept
wet 1t is not so effective as the
grass screen, and the flannel dries
more quickly than the grass. A still
simpler device is to have wet flannel
over the ordinary screen, wetting the
flannel from time to time. Some of
the moisture may be removed from
the atmosphere by placing large
Jumps of quicklime in earthen bowls

that the body of Abraham Lincoln, the
martyr president, had been quietly re-
moved to a secret vault in the monument,
where 1t will rest safe and secure from the
attempt Of marauders or body snatchers.
The removal, it was stated, was accom-
plished some time Monday night or Tues
day morning.
The story is denied by Major E. S. John
son, custodian of the monument; by AS
sistant State Treasurer Whittemore, and
by Colonel J. S. Culver, the contractor who
is reconstrueting the monument They say:
There is not word of truth in it." Ar
rangements for the moving of the body, it
is asserted by those who contradict these
officials, were completed the afternoon of
May %. Robert Lincoln was in the city
that day, and, accompanied by Governor
Yates and those who had authority in the
premises, visited the tomb. The scene
there enacted was said to be most i'm
pressive and the circumstances attendant
upon the event exceedingly dramatic.
Looked Into LincoIn's Face.
Standing in the dark, cold recesses of
the tomb, with the great monument tow
ering high over head, the favored few, it
is said, were permitted to look upon the
face of the great war president
Since the departure of Mr.. Lincoln the
task of preparing the vault in which Pres
ident Lincoln's body is to lie has been
steadily progressing. The last place in
the city Governor Yates visited before en-
barking on his present trip was the Lin
coin monument. He went alone. He went
about where the workmen were employed
and inspected the work on the vault which
is now practically completed. This COM
partment is now about ready for the re-
ception of the body.
After the visit of the governor, it is
stated. the removal Of the body to the Sc
eret vault depended solely upon the ar
rival Of an opportune time. Since the body
was taken from the temporary vault in
which it had rested 1t has reDosed in the
marble sarcoDhagus in the crypt on the
north side of the obelisk.
Fear has been. frequently expressed Of
possible attempts to spirit away the re-
mains of President Lincoln 1t has been
a subject which at times has more or less
agitated state officials and members of
the family and those of his warmest per-
sonal friends who survive him. It has
