FOREST FIRE LANES.
Their Construction Very Materially
Reduces the Danger OF Great and
General ConHnErntions.

1t is generally recognized through
out Europe that the construction of
suitable fire lanes throughout the for
est conduces more to the prevention of
great conflagrations than any other
institution. These serve as vantage
points in the fighting of fire and often
in themselves are sufficient to prevent
its spread. By means of fire lanes the
country is cut into parcels and the
danger of great conflagrations very
materially reduced. These fire lanes,
in order to be efficient, must be wide,
clean and well cared for; otherwise
, they are of little use.
Fire lanes may be constructed at
slight expense. After the wood is cut
it is necessary to plow three or four
{ burrows along the edges and then to
| burn over the lane at times when there
is no danger of setting fire to the
neighboring woods. A lane so feet in
width would be quite efficient.
The scheme which have to suggest
is that these fire lanes be constructed
and kept in order in way similar to
J the construction of state roads, which
have been so popular of late. In this
way no terrible burden of expense
rests upon anybody. The individual

what II Age7

Upon one occasion when Sir
Mountstuart Grant Duff was in the
company of the distinguished physi-
clan, the late Sir Andrew Clarke, their
talk turned upon old age. Asked to
define age, Sir Mountstuart took ref
uge in the conventional view by
which a woman is the age she looks,
and the man the age he feels.
well enough for society" com
mented Sir Andrew. But what is
age?"
Suppose you define it?" suggested
Sir Mountstuart.
sit seems to me-" replied Sir An
drew, that age begins when we cease
to be able to adapt ourselves to the
changes of our environment. A man
who cannot do that is already aged,
whatever the sum of his years."
"That reminds me-" said Sir Mount
stuart, "of story told of a caller
upon Cardinal Newman during n Sc
we're illness. He is very ill., the OBJ
server said, nevertheless I don't think
he is ging to die. He has great
deal of Latin read to him, and he is

Result of Spraying Tests.

At the Vermont experiment station,
spraying potatoes during ten years, of
which an account was kept, showed a
Weld of 296 bushels per acre for the

benefited thereby pays part, the coun-
ty another part and the state pays the
remainder.
New Jersey was the first state to
take any radical step toward the i'm
provement of her public highways.
The state aid law provides that, on Pc
tition of the owners of two-thirds OF
the lands bordering any public road,
not less than a mile in length. asking
that the road be improved and agree
ing to pay ten per cent. of the cost, the
county officials shall improve the road,
one-third of the expenses to be borne
by the state, if the road is brought to
the standard fixed by the state COM
missioner of public roads, and the bal
ance-66 2-3 per cent.-by the county.
The states expenditures for such i'm
provements in any one year are linn
tied to $150,000, while the county is linn
tied to one-fourth of one per cent. of
| its assessed valuation. Since 1895 the
applications for new roads have been
far in excess of the limit prescribed by
law.
1t seems to me that it would be a
simple process to extend this system
| to the construction of fire lanes. 1t is
foolish to talk of forest culture until
fires are reduced in number. For this
purpose fire lanes are essential, and
this is the only scheme I know OF
which seems practical and possible
Once institute a perfect system of fire
lanes under combined state and local
control, and the number and severity
of fires will be reduced to such an ex'

The Highest-Priced butter.

Separator butter commands the
highest prices on every butter market
in the world. 1t stands best for fresh
consumption and best after long keep

can no longer be supplied with any
thing else. Every dealer and almos!
every consumer recognizes its unques
tionable superiority. Almost every
butter prize at fairs, conventions and
exhibitions now goes to the separator
made entries, and this is invariably the

F.P. Kuroda Jumped and Stabbee
by Hoodlums at japanese
Play House.

An aggravated case of hoodIumism
was reported to the police department
yesterday by F. p Kuroda, the clerk
plantation.
On Wednesday night Mr. Kuroda,
who has been in town on account of
sickness for a week or 30 past, visited
the Japanese theater on Dowsett Lane.
About II o'clock he heard a noise be-
hind him and on turning around saw
four or five Japs maltreating a fellow
countryman. They had got him down
and were kicking him numerically
about the head. The mans head was
underneath a chair rendering It impos-
sible for him to arise. Whenever he
tried to withdraw his head he received
a kick for his pains.
Kuroda demonstrated with the men
and told them TO give their victim a
show, whereupon one of their number,
Highuehi by name, seized him by the
throat and demanded an explanation as
TO why he had interfered. Kuroda re-
piled that he was afraid that they
would kill the man. He thinks that II
he had not acted as he did the man
would certainly have been kicked to
death.
While Kuroda VS. talking to the
men ex-police officer Tanaka appeared
on the scene and took Kuroda's part
AS soon as the gang saw Tanaka they
scattered.
About five minutes later, while Ku-
roda was explaining the affair 10 Ta-
naka. Higuichi again came up and
seized Kuroda by the throat At the
same time a number Of other Japs at
al n in ha 1egn {,1N
ensued he was badly stabbed in the
head with a knife. The wound was q
very bad one, and necessitated four
stitches being taken in 1t by a doctor.
Tanaka then got into the fight and
did his best to protect Kuroda from

his ASSISTANTS. Kuroda, when cut, fen
to the ground, and Tanaka told him to
lie low and remain there.
Tada, who was a witness of the
trouble, knows Kuroda very well, and
told the gang who he was, at the same
time rushing to the nearest exit and
calling for police assistance. This
frightened the turbulent Japs, and they
lost no time in making themselves
scarce.
Yesterday Kuroda swore to com

with assault with a deadly weapon.

morning two Japanese came to his
house at Makiki and tried to effect a

A BIsBEE KILLING
Jose Gonzales Died at the Hand of an
 Injured Husband.

The killing Sunday night at about II o'clock of Jose Gonzales by Julius Car denas, caused for few minutes quite an excitement in what is ordinarily at that hour the liveliest part of the town, says the Bisbee Review. Yet, although the shooting took place vir- tually in the presence of a hundred or more persons, at the inquest but little evidence was adduced beyond that of Cardenas himself. He testified that since 1898 there had been trouble between himself and Gonzales. That Gonzales had persisted in paying at tentions to the wife of Cardenas, and he. Cardenas, had repeatedly protested.
 Cardenas. in his testimony, provel very manly, making no effort to i'm plicate his wife in any criminality with Gonzales.
 Last evening the two men met in front of the Turf saloon and after 2 few words. which scarcely attracted the attention of the many bystanders Cardenas drew his pistol and fired one shot. which. taking effect In the neck of Gonzales, ranged upward and pene- trated the brain, resulting in almost instant death.
 The coroner's jury found merely d perfunctory verdict, viz:
 That the deceased. Jose Gonzales. met his death as the result of a pistol shot at the hands of Julius Cardenas, and recommended that a further in vestigation be had.
 Cardenas is well known here and in Tucson He has been in business here and is the owner of considerable prop erty- The man killed has been about here for some years and seems to have been persistent in his attentions to Mrs Cardenas.
