Ambassador Porter appealed to the
French minister of the interior a few
days ago for re-hearing in the case
of Americans suspected of completely

ton at that time was that a new in
vestigation would be ordered and that
the suspects would be given a chance
to testify in their own behalf. Burns
return to France without permission
may engender feeling of resentment
that may operate to prevent the pro-
posed ADMINISTRATION.

Cork rrers Of Spain.

The cork forests Of Spain cover an
area of 62o, 900 square miles, produc
ing the finest cork in the world. These
forests exist in groups and cover wide
belts of territory, those in the reg ion
Of Catalonia and part of Barcelona
being considered the first in import
ancc. Although the cork forests of
lIslremadura and Andalusia yield cork
of much quicker growth and possess
ing some excellent qualities, its con-
sistency is less rigid, and on this &C
ton it does not enjoy the high repu-
tation which the cork of Catalonia
does,
In Spain and Portugal, where the
cork tree, or Quercus suber, is indig.
enons, it attains to height varying
from * to Go feet and the trunk to
diameter of 80 to SO inches. This
species of the evergreen oak is often
heavy caparisoned with wide spread
inc branches clothed with ovate
oblong evergreen leaves slightly SER
rated. Annually, between April and
May, it produces flower of yellowish
color, succeeded by acorns. Over
80, 900 square miles in Portugal are
devoted to the cultivation of cork
trees, though the tree virtually
abcunds in every part of the county.
The methods in vogue in barking
and harvesting the cork in Spain and
Portugal are virtually the same. The
barking operation is effected when the
tree has acquired sufficient strength
to withstand the rough handling it re-
ceives during this operation, which
takes place when it has attained the
fifteenth year of its growth. After
the first stripping the tree is left in
this juvenesCent state TO regenerate,
subsequent Stripping being effected at
intervals of not less than three years,
and under this process the tree will
continue to thrive and bear for up
wards of $50 years.

Back to the Country,

The country boy signs for city life,
and when he finally reaches the goal,
he begins to wish himself again among
the birds and flowers. With the
coming of old age he regards himself
lucky if he can get his feet back on
mother earth. The strife is as great
to acquire sufficient wealth TO purchase
land on which to spend the declining
years as was the youthful struggle to
get a foothold in the city. The smil-
ing sky and the green earth seem to be
the natural heritage Gilman and no one
feels this quite SO keenly as the one
who has had a taste in youth of the
sweets of rural life.

There are three ways in which he may

stealth and skill add zest to this method.

The County tax rate for the year 1902 is
eighty seven 80 cents on each one hundred
i$lUO) dollars " Orth of taxable property, which
Is flVe cents more than the rate for 1901, ana
two cents more than the rate for 1900.
The Increase in the tax rate is accounted
for almost entirely by the additional cost Of
holding the elections under the new election
law, amounting to nearly 5000, including the
the extra expense of building new iron
bridges amounting to $i4UO. The large iron
BRIDGE now being built at CRISIS ford, over
the Monocavy river, is only partly levied for
this year, the balance to be levied for here
after. Other extra items on this years levy
are: Harrison Wagner case $tO5. IA, new ROAD
machines Sl,3"1, and Montevue Hospital re
pairs ON account OF storm damages 81 ,6GS.l9,
which are nearly Offset by the decrease III
inSolvencies and errors, though the latter are
stlll very large, being $s,tUO There Is also
noticeable Increase in Il number or other
items, which amounts cannot be controlled by
the County Commissioners, as for Instance,
cohStables, magistrates, witnesses and vac
rinatiOn.
There is an Unsuitable demand, which Is
constantly Increasing, for more ana better
roads, bridges, Schoulhouses, ana other public
Improvements, which is impossible to satisfy
without increasing the tax rate enormously,
yet which cannot he entirely disregarded.
The County Commissioners are elected by til G
pc plc, and they feel it their duty to subSelve,
aS far as they are able to ascertain, the Will
ANA interests of the majority. This is an age
of development and Improvement, and con-
vcnienCes and accommodations, which were
considered ample few Years ago, are no
longer adequate to meet the demands of the
present time. Yet, withal, we believe the
present Board has been sufficiently conServa
tive to satisfy the dictates Of economical an-
ministratOn without doing Violence to the
spirit of progress.

BY ALFRED CECIL.

emotions-you must be that man or that woman.
 Put to yourself this question: If not yourself who would you be? Had you the power given to those wondrous mites of humanity who figure in nursery tales changing form by the magic of ring from peasant lad to prince or peer, from enchanted beast to marvelously gifted man; or possessed you the talisman to obliterate some person, the ideal of your ambition, and to assume his corporal self and be him, would you do it?
 Ask fifty persons of your acquaintance these questions and if they answer se- riously they will say no. If this be the general answer then Is 1t proof that there is no individual to envy. But many would say, I would not be other than what am, as being other than 1 am, l would lose what is now dear to me, or of what I am most fond; yet I would have what So and So has because 1t would make me the happier
 It is this contemplation of what other people have, divested of what other peo- ple are, that brings so much trouble in the world It is a prolific source of hu- man wretchedness. They are content to be themselves. but they would be In the environment of other persons. When ne or she aspires to be what some other per son is without being that person 1t IS well to remember that the person they would not be has been made what he or she is largely by the influence of environ ment. Therefore, the erect of this changed situation upon the asprant must be fully considered.
 Within the last few years custom has grown up to exploit few individuals and their families. There marriages and deaths have become events and even the births of their children incidents of great interest. Their dinners and theater- going, their balls. parties, receptions, their clothes, actions and movements have been regularly chronicled. Over and above them, abound and about them, the golden lamp has shed auriferous beams. These seem the elect of the peo- pie. And in many distant country town some fair maid or some blooming matron has turned from tell-tale mir TOT. signing: What would I be if l were only there?

CENSUS BILL
 SPLITS SENATE. Will be Taken Up Again lfIer
 Danish Treaty Monday CIVIL SERVICE IS INVOLVED
Section Finally Passed Retaining All the Present Employees Except Un- skilled Laborers Under Provs-
 ions of the Civil Service Act.

Washington, February 15.-During the entire session of today the Senate had under consideration the bill establishing a permanent census office. It was not completed. but an agreement was reach ed to take 1t us again immediately after the executive session that Is to be held on Monday next for the consideration of the Danish treaty.
 The great contest of the day was over the transfer to the classified service of the employees of the census office who are to be retained in the permanent estab- lishment. It involved the entire civil service question and the debate covered much of the ground that heretofore has been gone over in Congressional debates.
 On motion of MT. McComas the first paragraph of section was amended so us to read:
 '"rhat all employees of the census of nce except unskilled laborers. at the date of the passage of this act shall be and are hereby placed without further exam nation, under the provisions of the civil service act"
 nn motion of Ar. Teller the bill was
