The lumbermen are now getting
things ready for sending their crews
to the woods. Operations will COM
mence earlier than usual, this year,
almost everywhere on account of the
large amount of lumber left in the
woods, last spring. Wagon shedding
will doubtless be commenced just as
soon as there is snow enough. as there
are good many full yards left over
to be cleared. Then the supply of logs
ran short, this year, and more than
usual will be needed for next year.
The men who have followed the rear
drive down can now return and begin
on the winters operations if they SO
desire. Some of the firms have their
toteing well under way now, and some
have had teams doing this all summer

ST. Louis Exposition Managers
Agree to the Government
Terms.

Washington, July 9.-The comp
troller of the treasury today render
ed a decision holding that under the
law of Congress the Louisiana Pur-
chase Exposition Company cannot
receive any part Of the federal appro-
priation for the exposition until a
contract shall have been signed by
the directors of the company bind
ing themselves to close the fair Sun
days. Secretary Shaw had already
informed the exposition company
that such a contract would have
to be entered into, and this telegram
was received at the treasury today
from David r. Francis, president of
the company:
"Sunday closing resolutions as for
warded by treasury department
adopted by board of directors of ex-
position today. Thirty-eight direc-
tors, all who rel present, signed
the agreement. Additional sigma
t1res will be obtained as rapidly as
possible"
This means that the majority of
the nine-three members Of the board
will sign the agreement and resolu-
ton submitted to comply with the
law making the Sunday closing of
the exposition a condition upon
which the government appropria-
ton will be paid.

PARACHUTE JUMPERS.

From Mount Vernon, ILL.,, comes
an account of the death of a para
chute jumper. 1t is an oft-repeated
story. There is something heroic in
the risk incurred by Santos Dumont
in his aeronautic experiments, en-
~deavoring, as he is, to benefit hui
manity by making possible the nav
igation eff the air. In the case of the
parachute jumper, however, there is
not a single element to distinguish
it from foolhardiness. For a few
dollars he risks his life. His per-
Torrance adds nothing to the welfare
of humanity. The entertainment
the spectacle affords is not worth the
witnessing. Parachute jumpers,
since they persist in taking risks
which almost inevitably result in IA
tai accidents, should be protected
against their own folly. Out of mere
pity for those who r simple enough
to follow parachute jumping as an
avocation the public should refuse to
patrOnizc that class of exhibition.
There are some persons who need
protection against themselves and of
such is the man who courts death by
Jumping out of balloon.

VOLCANO STILL ERUPTS.
The Inhabitants of Fort de France
Alarmed Again at Mont
Pelee's Actions.

Fort de France, July 1O.-Dr.San-
derson, DIR. Fleet and an American
government stenographer arrived
here this morning from St. Pierre.
The sloop on which they travelled
was covered with ashes and stones
the size of walnuts. They were off
St. Pierre when the eruption oc-
Cured, the mountain emitting clouds
of smoke that resembled gigantic
caullfowers. Later on an immense
black cloud swept over the ruins of
ST. Pierre. This was followed by an
incandescent avalanche which swept
down the mountain side and expend-
ed its force seward. The pheno-
menon was accompanied by vivid
