Burlington, Iowa, March 1.-Pretty
Frances Dozah, 26 years old, resident OF
Quincy, ILL.,. who has been a clerk for
some time in the Grand department store
here, was found dead in room in the
Western hotel to-day with the warmth
still in her body.
Late yesterday afternoon a stranger
called at the hotel and engaged two
rooms, saying his sister would arrive on
the evening train. He paid the bills in
advance. No one saw the couple enter
the hotel in the evening, but the night
clerk heard them go up stairs to the
rooms.
About 10 o'clock this morning the man
was seen to leave the hotel by side
entrance and disappear down an alley,
evidently In a great hurry. Shortly aft
erwards the chambermaid went to make
| up the room, but seeing the woman lying
in bed, apparently asleep, she left her
alone. AT l O'CLOCK she went to the room
and found the girl was dead.
The police believe they will have little
difficulty In tracing the mysterious man
who spent the night with the girl. The
girls folks say she was troubled with
heart disease, and are not inclined to be-
lieve she committed suicide or that a drug
was given her. The inquest will be held
tomorrow.

Washington, March 1.-Surveys have
progressed far enough in the Philippines,
according to information brought recently

Cabe, assistant chief Of the bureau of for
eStry in the archipelago, to warrant the
assertion that the public timber lands

which are vested in the government-ap-
prox1mate so, 000SO00 acres that will aver

more acres than the British governments
| entire forest reserves in India, and Eng
| land derives an annual revenue of $10,-
600 from these reserves.
| Captain McCabe, whose home is in Pc
tosky, Mich, is here on leave of absence.
At the request of Governor Taft he has
appeared before the senate committee on
the Philippines and the house committee
on public lands to give them information
| to be used in framing land law for the
islands. Captain McCabe went to the
Philippines in 1899 as an officer of the
Thirtieth volunteers. Captain McCabe
has furnished some very interesting in
| formation for Americans who are thinking
of operating in timber in the Philippines.
AS assistant chief of the forestry bureau
he has visited every island of Importance
and he says that many of them are viz
gin forests covered to the very water S
| edge with the finest tropical woods, the
nature of the surface rendering access to
the interior easy.
There are, however, millions of acres
miles INLAND in mountainous districts
where the lack of roads or river drive
ways makes it almost inaccessible and in
the handling of It's forest products i'm
practicable until proper means of COM
municatio are provided. One thing that
proposed operators should bear in mind
he says, is that there are no forests OF
one variety such as are found in the
United States. Already 665 different
woods have been classified and from E
dozen to fifty species grow on single
I acre. 1t is seldom that more than four OF
five trees of the same kind will be
grouped together. Therefore to handle
one kind of timber would be Impractical
