A Good Story.

A good story is told on man
who had quantity of limburger
cheese he wished to ship. 1t
seems the express agent would
not accept of it on account of its
odor The fellow purchased a
rough box to a coffin and shipped
it as corpse. When it was be-
ing unloaded an Irishman assisted
in carrying the supposed coffin
from the car. The smell was some
thing terrible and the Irishman
asked the shipper who was in the
box. The fellow told him it was
his brother, and after a few min
utes reflection he said: my
friend, you have the consolation
of knowing that yonr brother was
not buried alive. Red Greek

A Wonderful Offer to Women.

We have received word of most remark
able offer which is to be made to women by
The Deiineator, of New York.
Taking the fact that next year begins .
new century, The Delineator offers to distri-
butte 5 1900 among 1901 women. The plan
is so clevery arranged that woman living in
a small town or village, has just as good q
chance to win one of these 1901 prizes ~ Q
woman living in q city-because the prizes
are given for the number of subscriptions
secured in town in proportion TO the popu.
lation OF that town, instead of being given
simply to those who send the largest list of
subscribers-whch, of course, are most easily
obtaned in big cities. Another clever feature
Of the plan is that all the cities and towns OF
the United States and Canada have been ar
ranged in seven classes. The cities Of the
greatest population are grouped in Class /,
and as these cities arc not very many, the
prizes offered are twenty sight; the high
est prize being $500, and the lowest SIS. co.
The total amount of prizes given away in this
class is $1,000. The remaining smaller towns
and villages fall into six other classes, and as
the number of towns in class increases. be.
cause of course, there are more small towns
than large ones, the amount of prizes given
away to class increases, 30 that in Glass I,
there will be $4,000 distributed among col
winners.
Furthermore, to everyone who fails to win
one of the 1901 prizes there will Be paid an
extra commission on subscriptions, provided
thev equal one out of every two hundred in
habtants of the town from which the con-
test,nt sends them.
This is altogether very liberal offer, apd
enc which the famous old Dessaeator 10 well
able 10 make good From our point Of view,
we do not see why such an offer needs TO bs
made by the Publishers of The Delineator for
we believe it already has nearly half million
subscribers. Its strong hold upon the afec-
tious of American women has come In the
past generation, from its practical advice
about dress details and home matters.

The Bia-lieartedness of Americans.

A mother came from the home
farm in New Hampshire to nurse
her son in the hospital. A few
DAYS later he died. The authori-
ties said the body must be taken
away or buried in the potter's
field. The devoted, broken-heart-
ed mother was distracted. When
the sad story was known to some
of the big-hearted clerks, they
were not long in raising the need
ed money, and gave it to her with
sympathetic words. | cannot de-
scribe the paradox-the happiness
of a broken-h arted mother in
bereavement, who was enabled to
save her loved one from pauper's
grave
"Pll take him home with me,
for he was a good boy; good boy.
He'll be near me nOw-up in the
old churchyard where he loved to
play. Oh, I'm so glad can have
my boy go home with me-"
Poor, dear, lonesome heart
There were glistening eyes around;

pSlHIll. ouS SiSd' vi dWOoNN
which is retarding the work of
the Bureau, is the lack of capable
and active subordinate officials. 1t
is difficult to find men familiar
with the forest conditions and the
uses of the woods of the Philip
pines, who are entirely satisfactory
in other respects. 1t is believed
that the best means of securing
competent and efficient force is to
employ new men and train them
on the ground as speedily as pos
sible. In this work Messrs Bruce
and Hamilton will be able to rem
der valuable assistance.
The Bureau was recently reor-
ganized so as to consist of an officer
in charge, an inspector, botanist,
a chief clerk, and stenographer,
translator, a law clerk, a record
clerk, 10 assistant foresters, and 30
rangers. 1t is the intention of the
officer in charge to work up for
est service on the lines of the work
carried on in the U. S. Department
of Agriculture, through its Division
of Forestry. The wholesale de-
struction of timber will be stopped,
and the cutting will proceed under
regulations looking to the future
yields of the forests. The fire
question will also receive close at
tention.
Captain Ahern, in a recent re-
port, calls attention to several OBJ
stacles in the way of immediate
success in numbering in the Philip
pine Islands, the most serious
drawbacks being lack of good roads
and skilled labor. Forest roads
and river driveways are almost un-
known, and present methods of
numbering are slow and expensive.
The natives, he finds, are not skill
ed workmen, and though receiving
very low wages, their work is
found by no means cheap when
one considers the cost of telling
and hauling a cubic foot of timber
to the shipping point.
The forest lands of the Philip
pine Islands, it is estimated by
Captain Ahern, cover 10000, 900
acres; larger in extent and greater
in value than the forests of India.
There are 3S5 species of timber
producing trees, and about so more
species as yet unclassified. Inclu-
ded in the above list are very hard
woods, capable of taking beauti-
full polish; woods that resist eli
matte influences and the attack of
white ants; still others that are es-
pecially suited for sea-piling or for
use as railroad ties. There are
many varieties of trees producing
valuable gums, oils, and drugs;
rubber and gutta-percha are
abundant in Mindanao and Tawi-
Tawi; while at least II dye-woods
are found within the limits of the
Archipelago, Cocoanut palms
grow without care or cultivation
throughout the islands. There are
also many varieties of palms, bam-
boo, canes, and rattan which are
of commercial value and will afford
profitable employment to native
labor.

have sailed from San Francisco for
Manila on the transport Indiana.

Climber rand in the
Philippines = = =

The Division of Forestry of the
U. S. Department of Agriculture
has selected from its working force
two trained lumbermen with some
knowledge of forestry, to be sent
to the Philippine Islands in COM
pliance with cable request OF
the Taft Philippine Commission.
The persons selected for this work
are Mr.. Grant Bruce, formerly a
State forester in New York, and
Mr.. Edward Hamilton. Both of
these men are expert lumbermen
with some training in forestry, and
have been selected in view of their
special fitness for the Philippine
work
A bureau of forestry was estab-
lished in the Philippines in April,
1900, with Capt. George P. Ahern,
Ninth United States Infantry, in
charge. The work of this Bureau
has convinced the Taft Commission
of the great Importance OF the tim
Der lands as a natural source OF
wealth and of the necessity of
putting the Bureau on a sub
stantial footing and handling these
woodlands under scientific forest
methods. Furthermore, it is evil
dent that the cutting of timber
under proper regulations will pro-
vide a large and increasing annual
revenue to the Government. 1t
has been found necessary to per
nit the cutting of timber to supply
the present pressing needs, but
care has been taken at the same
time that the cutting should be
done in manner that would work
no injury to the future growth of
the forests. These considerations
led the commission to cable to
Washington for trained foresters
to assist in putting the service on
a more satisfactory footing.
Under the Spanish administra-
ton the timber lands of the Philip
pine Islands were in charge of a
Department of Forestry which
was organized in 1868. The per
sonnel of this Department was
made up of expert fores ers,
rangers, clerks, draughtsmen, etc,
the higher officials being selected
from the Spanish Corps of Engin-
eers.
After Captain Ahern was ap-
pointed he received authority to
employ a small number of forest
ers, rangers, and clerks; by Sep
tember his office force had been
doubled; in order to handle the
work of the Bureau properly, The
call for activity on the part of
those in charge of the Bureau of
Forestry was emphasized at once
by the lumber famine in Manila
and other important towns, owing
to the destruction of buildings in
the war, and the increased demand
for good dwelling houses resulting
from the large influx of Americans.
For these reasons the telling of
trees and the mark citing of lumber
had to begin soon after the estab-
ment of the Bureau, Captain
Ahern is in constant communi-
cation with the Division of For
estry, for assistance and Coopera-
ton with the Philippine Bureau
of Forestry.
The work of that Bureau was
confined for some months TO the
Island of Luzon, but recently has
been carried to other points in the

CHINESE REVOLUTIONIST
Leaves Sandwich Islands for Native
Country to Overthrow En-
press and Mandarines.

Honolulu, June Z, via an Francisco,
June 13.-Dr. San Vet Sen, the Chi
nese reformer, left on the America
Maru, June for China, for the pur-
pose Of starting revolution. His
intention Is to overthrow the empress
dowager and mandarins. His idea is
to have China ruled by president on
lines after the government Of Ameri-
ca. He says that there will be a
strong force ut his back and he has
the support Of many prominent white
men Of China as well as thousands OF
natives. This Is the third revolution
which he has attempted in China and
he is confident that this attempt viii
prove successful.
DR.. Sen would not state where he
intended to land in China or give de-
tails Of his plans. There will be blood
shed very soon, he declared.

ASSESSING The COST
British Government Preparing to
Tax Transvaal and Orange
River Colony.

London, June 13.--Sir David Bar
bour, whom the chancellor OF the ex-
chequer, Sir Michael Hicks-Beach,
sent to South Africa, to investigate
the resources of the Transvaal and
Orange River colony, with q view to
estimating how much they should con-
tribute toward the cost OF the war,
reports In favor OF a 10 per cent tax
ON the profits Of the mines. yielding,
on the basis Of the profits OF 1898.
+450,0O0 yearly. After paying this,
Sir David Barbour considers the mines
will be better off tnan before. as they
will save 5000 quarterly on dyna-
mite by the abolition Of the monopoly
on that commodity.
The Orange River colony will be
unable for some years to meet the
ordinary cost of administration and
pay its share Of the cost of the con-
stabulary. '.It cannot, therefore" says
Sir David, so far as can be foreseen
at present, pay anything toward the
cost Of the war"
The Transvaal, he thinks. can, two
years after the conclusion Of peace,
begin out Of It's ordinary revenue to
part Of the cost of the war. He is
unable, now, to estimate how much.
Sir David proposes also to apply all
revenues derived from the sale Of
lands or mining rights to the war
liquidation.

TESTIMONY ALL IN
Kennedy Murder Trial Will Be
Given to the Jury
Today.

Kansas City, Juno 13.-The trial Of
Lulu Prince-Kennedy, who killed her
husband in January last because he
refused to live with her after a forced
marriage, will go to the jury tomor-
row. The testimony was finished this
afternoon, and arguments will begin
tomorrow.
Today the defense suffered second
setback when Judge Wofford ruled out
q conversation with Kennedy before
the killing, tending to corrobOrate
evidence offered yesterday to prove
that Kennedy had admitted having
ruined Lulu Prince.
Further expert testimony to prove
that the defendant was temporarily
insane at the time of the shooting was
offered, and Bert Prince, one OF the
alleged conspirators, again took the
stand, this time for the defense. and
to prove IN alibi for himself, and to
deny that he had predicted Kennedys
murder.
Mrs. Kennedy appeared much dis
tressed and cried frequently during

INTERvENoR ENTERED IN
AMALGAMATED SUIT.
WOMAN PARTY TO ACTION
Mrs. Smith Interested as Owner
Of Stock Held for an
Investment.

New York, June 13-The case Of
Calvin o. Geer against the Amaigam-
ated Copper company was recalled be-
fore Vice Chancellor Stevens in New
ark today.
George Alfred Lamb and Robert
Carey presented a petition OH the
part of Mrs. Silas e. Smith to be al
lowed to intervene in the action. Mrs.
Smith is owner Of stock in the Anal
gamated company which she has held
as an investment since the organiza-
ton Of the company. There was no
opposition to her intervening in the
case.
The suit was brought by the G. E.
Vcnner company and Calvin o. Geer
to restrain the Amalgamated Copper
company from acquiring the Boston e
Montana and the Butte Il Boston conf
pames.
r. v. Londabury, attorney OF the
Amalgamated company, at the OPEN
ing of the hearing, presented tue COM
pany's answer to the charges Of the
cumplainants. He denied that the di-
rectors of the Amalgamated Copper
company owned $4,000 shares of the
Butte & Boston stock now or that
they had owned it at any time. He
also denied that they were interested
in the Boston & Montana company,
with the exception Of Henry Rogers
and Rockefeller, each OF whom, he
said, owned $50 shares Of the stock
of the company and had owned them
for long time.
Londabury further claime0 that the
assets OF these companies as stated
by the complainants were not proper
" itemized, and that there were adj
ditional assets that would bring the
total up to $2O,O0O.000. Counsel de-
MED further that it was the intention
of the defendant directors to unload
their holdings at exhorbitant prices.
The answer to the complaint pre-
sented by Londabury included an
AFFIDAVIT by VIM. G.. Rockefeller, which
contained the announcement that Al
bert G. Burrage, Henry H. Rogers and
VIM Rockefeller had resigned as di-.
rectors Of the Amalgamated Copper
company at a meeting of the board
held June IL and that after the resig-
nations had been accepted, Geo. F.
Baker, Frederick Cromwell and Wal
ter G. Oakman were elected to fill the
vacancies.
