From the Illinois State Journal.
An African jungle transplanted to central
Illinois would be the best description that
could be given to a remarkable tract of
land in TazeweH county, lying along the
Mackinaw river, near the village. of Lilly.
This tract, in local parlance, Is known as
+'The Lost Forty" 1t is without doubt the
widest piece of land in all Illinois, and con-
sists. of a continuous series of abrupt and
deep ravines. Not foot of the tract could
be cultivated. The ridges are full of fox
dens, wolves are occasionally found, and
turkey buzzards hover over 1t In large
flocks. Even people familiar with the ter
ritory have been lost in the dense forest
Except for few giant oaks, the wood has
no commercial value. The tract is known
as 1.-THE Lost Forty because no one knows
who owns it. For years it has been used
for trading purposes, and many unwary
persons from a distance have advanced
money upon 1t and taken mortgages in yari-
Gus sums, only to receive a question: BILE
title to worthless piece of land. On the
Tazewell county tax books the forty ap-
pears with Owner unknown" The land Is
watered by innumerable springs and the

Queer Fishing.

From the Chicago News
An English writer tells this story: while
walking along the banks of the Wiske, ac-
companied by two fox terriers, I observed
some large pike basking in a shallow pool.
At the same moment young cart horse
which had got the wrong side of the stream
attracted my notice. 1t occurred to me II
the beast would only jump on the top of
the fish i might secure them while stunned
by the shock. Accordingly. helped by the
dogs, l drove the horse to the bank, crack
ed the dog whip 1 carried. and the animal
jumped. eager to return to its own field.
When the mud cleared off the stream two
large pike fioated to the surface stunned.
They were out of reach, but / called the
dogs attention to them, and one of them
plunged in and retrieved four-pound pike
getting well bitten in the process as the
fish revived. The other pike recovered, and

DISCUSS POSTS AND CAMPS
MEETING OF A BOARD OF HIGH
RANKING ARMY OFFICERS.
Pre.ented to the President by the
Secretary of war-Two Weeks
Session Expected.

The board of high ranking army oHcers,
headed by Lieutenant General Miles, which
was appointed by Secretary Root to con-
slider fully the subject of military posts and
reservations, met at the headquarters OF
the army, War Department. at 10 o'clock
this morning. The board consists of Lieu
tenant General Nelson A. Miles. COM
manding the army; Major General
John r. Brooke, commanding the depart
ment of the east; Major General e. s. Otis,
commanding the department of the lakes
and the department of Dakota; Major Cen
eral S. B. NJ. Young, commanding the de-
partment of California; Major General Mac

Randall, commanding the department of
Columbia; Brigadier General William A.
Kobbe. unassigned; Colonel w. F. Ran
dolph. chief of artillery. and Lieutenant
Colonel Samuel Reber, recorder.
This board has a most important work to
perform, as it will deal with the questions
of enlarging present posts, establishing new
ones and abandoning such army posts as
are deemed no longer necessary to the serv-
ice. 1t is also directed to formulate
project for the establishment of four per-
manent camp grounds for the instruction
and drill of the army and the National
Guard.
In considering the subject of the four per-
manent camp sites the board will treat more
particularly of the value of such camps in
a state of war, taking into consideration
access by railroad or water and other means
of quickly mobilizing a large force of men
in an emergency. ..-
Shortly after the board met this morning
General Miles escorted them upstairs to see
Secretary Root and Assistant Secretary
Sanger who went with them over to the

turned to the War Department and resumed
its session. 1t is expected that the work
will consume about two weeks.

Adulternted Foods,

To the Editor of The Evening Star:
The letter of "A Subscriber In The Star
of the 18th instant on "Aduterated Foods
presents a most superficial view Of the
workings of the law in the case. Granting,
as he says, that nine-tenths of all the lner-
chandise sold by our local merchants are
articles manufactured or produced else
where, and are bought for pure goods by
all our reputable merchants, yet that does
not release them from their responsibility.
IL the goods are below the standard. or
adulterated with unwholesome and danger
Gus substances, It is their business TO know
ii, and not wait to have il revealed TO
them in court A man by experience be-
comes an expert in the goods he handles.
If | sold milk which j had bought for
pure milk up to the required standard, and
l was quite sure | had not added a little
water. or taken off a little cream. and L
was fined for selling milk below the stand
ard. or adulterated, L would not perform
the baby act and say that our merchants
are being treated with great injustice, but
/ would pay like man, and / would then
say to the man from whom bought: Now,
here is your opportunity. You reimburse
me for what / have had to pay on account
of your dishonesty, and hereafter sell me
only the pure article, and you can retain
me for a customer. If you think you can
not your way clear to do this. then
hereafter you cannot sell me anything, and
/ shall do my utmost to bring You into
court yourself; and the same evidence
which convicted me will convict you, for
prove that the milk came from you"
In effect, this is about what happens when
the laws are enforced and the innocent
merchant is fined. No man with ordinary
business sense will continue TO buy from a
manufacturer or wholesaler who sells lin
an article which is any day liable to land
him I'm the police court. And the results
show that in fining the middleman the
penalty reacts with double force on the
supply man. for he may lose a customer
who might otherwise have remained Eith
him for years. The correctness Of this con-
cluson. and the vindication of the courts
action in the several cases brought Before

Ia Washington, and that the Philippines
shall come under his care. In this round
about fashion the church in the Philippines
would be returned to its Spanish allegiance
to large extent. The secular political
side of the matter amounts simply to this,
that the presence of Spaniard I'm Wash
ington as representing the pope and the
supreme authority in American Catholic
circles, and especially a Spaniard who has
been actively hostile to the United States,
would tend to complicate the situation
particularly in connection with the Spanish
possessions which were added to the United
States by the treaty of peace.
Obvious Advantages to Spain.
Ecclesiastical politics plays a prominent
part in the movement which proposes
to send Mgr. Del Val to the United States,
which will be apparent to all well-informed
Catholics who have been observant Of
the trend of events in Vatican circles during
the past few years. At the same time
American Catholics do not relish the idea
OF the position of apostolic delegate to
the United States being utilized 60 advance
the interests of candidates for the papal
throne. and the experience of the Canadian
Catholics with Mgr. Del Val. who was sent
there as papal delegate, is responsible
for the impression here that his incumbency
would be marked by greater dissatisfac-
tion than that Of Cardinal Satoln.
The advantages to Spain of having a
Spaniard so thoroughly in accord with her
ideas, who was formerly tutor of the King
of Spain and who is on the friendiest terms
with the Spanish court, with which he is
said to be in constant correspondence. in
the confidential and powerful position OF
the pope's representative to the United
States, are obvious.
Cardinal Martinelfs term has expired
and he is expecting a recall to Rome at any
time. especially It is not customary for
a member of the College of Cardinals to
represent the Vatican in a country which
does not maintain diplomatic relations with
the Vatican. Word from Rome that Mgr.
Del Val will not succeed him would be re
ceived by American Catholics with great
pleasure

ways. All day long little groups have
been standing across the street from the
Scott mansion, silently watching the
drawn blinds of the room in which the
first lady of the land lay. The news of

over the country this afternoon kilograms
have been pouring in to the President
expressing sympathy for Mrs. Mckinley
and asking for tidings of her condition.
Just how soon Mrs. Mckinley will be able
to travel is a question which no one can
answer now. 1t may be necessary for her
TO remain here longer than next Monday
when the party originally was scheduled
to leave.
1t is likely that it will be somewhat
later before she viii be able to endure the
long trip across the continent, but so soon
as she shall be sufficiently strong. the
trip will be made by the most direct
route, probably the Union Pacific. No
stops will be made and it is believed the
trip can be made in five days.

WHAT THE MILWAUKEE, CONVEN-

AND DEMAND.

YOUNGSTOWN May 15.-Prior to
leaving here last night President
Schwab, of the United States steel cor
poration, was seen regarding the recent
statements attributed to him as to or
ganized labor.
President Schwab said:
There is one thing that the ad-
vocates of union labor cannot answer
The mills at Homestead have paid bet
ter wages every year since 1892 than
previous to that time. 1t was union
mill before 1892 and has been run nom
union since This fact upsets all the
theories advanced by union labor ad-
vocates.'
While inspecting the Ohio steel plant
President Schwab met a number of
men with whom he had worked at
Homestead, and gripping the grimy
hand of each engaged in conversation
and recalled incidents when theywere
employed in the same plant.
