| carried on in 20 states. The bureau
has appointed 80 new student assist
ants for this season, the entire field

| includes, among other things. the ga
therlng of the necessary data for sew

Der of well known commercial trees

tension.
The Bureau of Forestry begins the
new fiscal year of 1902-1903 with an
appropriation of S291,S60 The amount
for the year just ended was s1s5440
This increased appropriation shows
how this work commends itself to Con-
gress, and it makes possible a much
wider range of work. The present sea-
sons work is by far the most varied
and interesting yet undertaken by the
Bureau of Forestry, and is being car
r;ed on in Maine, New Hampshire
Vermont, Massachusetts, New York,
New Jersey, Maryland. Tennessee.
Kentucky. West Virginia, North Caro-
lima, Michigan, Minnesota, Nebraska,
Oklahoma, South Dakota, Montana,
Arizona and California. Later in the
season it will be extended to still other
states and territories.
r. S. Hosmer, the field assistant in
charge in this State. has his force To-
Gated on Squaw Mountain township on
the shores of Moosehead lake. He has
10 men with him and they are making
excellent progress, according to the
reports which come from Forest Conn.,
missioner Ring, with whom the gov
eminent force is working. Commits
sioner Ring of Maine and Chief For
ester Pinchot of the United Staes Bu-
reau of Forestry have joined together
to carry on n study of the forest con-
dItion of the State. This is to include
an investigation of the behavious of
spruce after numbering in order to
draw up simple and practical rules for
Fastening the production of a second
crop upon numbered land. 1t entails
also q careful study of the fire problem
and of the best means of fighting fire
in this region. The investigation fur
Their includes q consideration of local
log scales.
Much attention will be given during
the present season to the examination
of woodlots, in the management of
which the assistance of the Bureau has
been requested. Two skilled men will
be detailed for this work and it is the
intention of the Bureau that it's agents
shall visit all woodlots for which APP
plications have been made.

Miss Booth was Murdered

1t has developed that Miss Winifred
Booth was murdered by DR.. Ledbrook,
at Orotino, Idaho, recently. Ledbrook
possessed an hypnotical influence over
Miss Booth and made use of it in Turing
her away from her home. Miss Booth
did not love the man, in fact, she
hated him.
To one young girl she stated that
Ledbrook had hypnotised her ON sew
eral OCCASIONS, and to her mother she
several times complained that he was
continually taunting her with all that
he had done for herself and other
members of the family She also said
to Mrs. Booth That he had an influence
over her that she could not resist.
Rev. Booth, the father of the girl,
this evening spoke without reserve Of
the sad occurrence, and stated that he
had from his first acquaintance with
Ledbrook regarded him as one of his
most helpful and sincere friends. He
had always been most attentive to his
daughters welfare, often working over
her during her critical illness for
hours at a time. Mr.. Booth said:
He always seemed devoted to Win
nie's welfare and frequently spoke of
his desire to adopt her as his daughter,
several times stating that he had al
ways desired children of his own, but
that he could not regard his own flesh
and blood with any greater affection
than he felt for her
1.-THE statement hintod at in his let
ter to Mr.. Gillette that Mrs. Booth was
cognizant of any affection that he might
possess for Winnie other than that of u
father for child, is unqualihedly
false.
Mrs. Booth, on reading the letter
this evening, was entirely prostrated,
and is now under the doctors care.
In speaking of Winnie, DIR, Led
brook never said anything to my wife
other than what he said to me, and
at no time were his remarks Of char
acter that would lead to suspicion that
he was in love with her, "--Telegrum.
