is asserted, has not been and will not
be radically different from that given

WOMAN'S COLLEGE,
Site Committee Has a Very
Difficult Problem-Pro-
perty Offered.

The site committee of the Woman S
College will meet tonight to select the
location for the proposed new building
for the college. The members of the COM
lnittee are w. S. Forbes chairman, DR..
J. B. Hawthorne, John Garland Pollard
John c. Williams, and a. W. Chewing.
1t is understood the committee is not
agreed upon the question of whether the
site should be selected in the city or in
favor of purchas sing the entire block
upon which the present college building
is located. DR.. R. A. Patterson is said to
have offered ten acres upon his property,
along the line of the Westhampton line
and a site has been proposed upon the
Ginter estate in the neighborhood of the
Theological Seminary. 1t is understood
that Mr.. Joseph Bryan has offered land
in the vicinity of his suburban home. 1t
seems likely that all these proposals may
be set aside in favor Of site on the
property of Richmond College, beyond
Lombardy street, and south OF Franklin
street.
The committee will be Influenced in Sc
lecting a site by the experience of other
colleges for women, such as the Wo-
mans College, of Baltimore, and the Ran
dolph- Macon Woman's College. The for
mer is situa ted in the heart of Baltimore
without any campus, while the latter is
outside Of Lynchburg, with spacious cam
pus Both institutions have been pro-
nounced successes, and the committee In
charge OF choosing a situation for the local
institution are in doubt as to choice be-
tween the city and the suburbs in the
light OF the experience of the colleges
mentioned.
The committee appointed to devise a
plan for co-ordinating the schools Tor
girls in the State under the Baptist lnilu-
ence will report to the Baptist General
Association that meets in Norfolk next
Thursday and it is more than probable
that the commission will recommend
some system of relieving certain semlna-
ries of their debt, and including them IN
a system of schools of which the Woman s
College here shall pc the centre.

LISTED DEAD PEOPLE,
Case of Census Fraud in Ma

Federal Court Here.

The United States Circuit Court of APP
peals convenes in the Federal building for
its November term at 10 o'clock this
morning On The bench will be Judge
Nathan Golf, Judge Thomas r. Purnell.
and Judge James E. Boyd.
The court, it is understood, will, the
first thing after converting, announce
some very important opinions on cases
heard at the May term, which was held
at Charleston, S. G. Among these may
be an opinion in the case of Joseph II
Ching, who was convicted in the District
Court of Maryland for the violation OF
the census law. II is said that Ching was
guilty of having put the names of mum
Der Of dead people on the census list with
the view of swelling the census figures.
During the session one case In pertlcu'

case of j. Q. Terry. of Nathalie, Va, who
was convicted in the District Court on
the charge of unlawful distilling. AT that
time the case created a small sensation
and there were two or three hung Jul
ries. The case was appealed. Terry, the
distii, :. will defend his own case.

two weeks.

GERMAN FORESTS.
Consular Report ON the Methods OF

WASHINGTON, D. c., November s.
Especial MIR. John L. kehl, United
States Consul at Stet.in, Germany, has
made an interesting report to the State
Department on the preservation. develop
ment and economical management of
forests The Germans. he says, perhaps,
excel any other nation in caring for their
forests. The government, as we'll as the
people. recognize that forests have not
only q commercial worth, but national,
economic value of utmost Importance.
The German forests as rule, are Tree
from weeds, underground. washoutS, and
dead and decayed wood High stumps are
a rarity. The trees are sawed about 3
to IL inches from the ground, thereby
adding to every log (of the first cut,
to feet in length, compared with what
the same tree would yield if cut on the
American style. IF our people would fell
timber as the Germans do-as close as
possible to the ground-it would save mill
lions of feet Of lumber each year" Mr..
kehl says.
In most cases. timber in Germany is
cleared in large patches and not, as is
too common with us, tree here and the
next one, possibly. a hundred yards away,
leaving the tops to rot. In Germany the
patch cut is cleared for blowing and Gull
tivatins purposes. Worn ground is used
in setting up saplings; in many instances
these tracts are surrounded by single
wire fence. and at several places are
marked with signboards bearing such
words as "Schonung la0o,'' meaning pro
tected (by law 1900 this being the year
il which the trees were planted.
Imperial statistics for 1900 show ina
Germany had 34,5e99c6 acres Of wood; in
1889 there were 74S acres; and in 1888.

show an increase, as compared with 1883,

BIGGEST DAYS WORK
OF COAL COMMISSION,
The ArbitratorsN End Their Tour of
0bscrvation-Will Meet at Scran-
ton Nov. 18th to Take
Testimony.

MAHANOY CITY. PA. November s.
The Anthracite Coal Strike Commission
ended its tour of observation of the coal
fields in the Panther Creek Valley to-
day, and the members of the party will
return to their homes tomorrow and will
meet again at Scranton on November
18th. to take testimony of the miners.
The biggest days work of the entire trip
was accomplished to-day when the COM
m.ssioners made a complete inspection
of the large coiIieries and a tour of the
region lying between Mount Carmel and
this city.
Six working days have been consum ed
in travelling from place to place in the
anthracite coal regions. In all, the COM
missonerS were lowered into seven mines
of varying conditions, and went through
several breakers. Among the points Wis
tied was the Maple Hill colliery of the
Philadelphia and Reading Coal and Iron
Company, a few miles from Shenandoah.
This is one of the best mines in the en-
tire anthracite field, and is equipped W.
all modern appliances. ne bottom of the
Shaft is $50 feet below the surface, and
during their two hours stay in the work
ings the commissioners went about mile
and a half from the shaft. The whistle
blew the noon hour just as the party
came to the surface.
TALKED WITH THE BOYS
At the breaker nearby the commission
ers talked with the boys whose faces
were black from coal dust. Judge Gray
and Bishop Spalding seemed the most in
terested in the lads and gave some of
them small coin. Then the arbitrators
visited the No. colliery of the Lefligh
Coal and Navigation Company, of Coal
dale. The entrance to the mines was
through drift which is horizontal
opening into the base of mountain.
About one hundred feet inside the en-
trance the party was lowered by means
of shaft to the bottom. which is $50 feet
down. The mine proved to be quite wet.
and every one in the party got more or
less of a wetting.
COMPLAINTS OF IDLE WORkMEN.
After leaving the mine a number of idle
mine-wOrkerS crowded around Chairman
Gray, of the commission. and told him
that they had been discrim.na ted against
by the company in the matter of getting
their cid places back. They said Super
intendent Beher would not take them
back for some reason unknown to them,
and that other men had been given their
positions. On the other hand the COM
pany officials claimed that they have not
enough work at this time for all the men
owing TO repair work now beng done III
the mines. Judge Gray listened TO them
but made no comment

President Palmer was questioned con-

mass-meeting in San Juan shortly and
then to select four delegates, two OF
whom are to be Americans. to go to
Washington and lay the party's griev-

the laws are made for the Republicans
and administered in their favor; the out
RACES and undisSuised action of the Exc

partially OF the government: the crimes
of the insular police in countenancing
