MInnesota Forest Preservation.

The hopes OF Minnesota champions
Of forest preservation have been some
what dashed by recent developments
in connection with the Chippewa In
dian reservation. 1t was proposed at
first to save the whole tract of ancient
pine lands for scientific care as a ma
tional forest. The wishes OF lumber
men, some pressure from other quar-
tiers to open the lands for settlement,
and the willingness Of Minnesota rep
resentatiyes to please both classes.
have led to a considerable modifica-
ton OF the original plan. The segre-
CATION Of forest lands is to be limited.
according to present proposals, to 225,-
900 acres, and these are not to be
turned over to the department OF ag-
riculture until the pine timber, or all
but 5 per cent Of it, has been removed.

SHE DID NOT RECLAIM THE COIN.

Though Given the Opportunity, Mrs..
Stanford Did Not Repent.
Those who pass the plate" in coun-
try churches are not often RECALLED
with the glitter OF gold among tho
contributions. 1t is related that about
ten years ago Mr.. and Mrs. Leland
Stanford were travelling through the
middle west incognito. They happened
to be in Bloomington, Ind, one Sun
day, and pursuant to their usual GUS
tom went to church. They attended
the Christian church of Bloomington,
then largely in the hands OF AMI At
water.
When the plate was passed for tho
collection Mrs. Stanford dropped in .
$40 gold piece. Mr.. Atwater was the
deacon in charge of the collection
taking. It was noticed that the ush.
ers held hurried conference with him
when the money was taken forward.
At its conclusion Mr.. Atwater said:
Ladies and gentlemen, there has evil
IDENTIFY been mistake. Some one has
dropped a SO gold piece into the COL
lection. II he will pass up after tho
services we will be glad to allow him
to exchange it for the amount he in
tended to give" 1t is, of course, need
less to say that Mrs. Stanford did
not take advantage OF the opportunity.

WILL FIGHT THE TRUSTS.
President to Have Bill for Their Con-
troll introduced in Congress-.

1t has been ascertained that the Pres
ident's remarks in reference to the
trust question In his speech at Pitts
burg Friday were the forerunners of de-
termined efforts by him to have Con-
gress take up that subject and enact
definite Legislation for the control and
supervision of trusts at Its next session
Recently the President and Attorney
General Knox held a conference with
Representative Littlefeld of Maine,
whose knowledge of constitutional law
is admitted, at which Mr. Littlefleld was
invited to prepare bill for the regula-
tion and control OF the trusts. which will
go before Congress with the Endorsement
and influence of the President back of it.
The bill will be submitted at the be-
ginning of the next session, but before
this is done the President, Attorney Gen
eral Knox. and Mr.. Littlefeld will have
frequent conferences as to the details
In addition to this proposed action the
President is going to talk upon the trust
question a good deal on the several trips
to be made by him in the autumn. He
has announced to friends that the ques
tion is vital one. ard that he proposes
to push 1t vigorously until there Is
some action by Congress.

THE WORK WELL IN HAND
Renewed Efforts to Be Made to Increase
Fund FOX Entertaining the Old Sold
iers During Their Stay in the City
Chairman Raymond Hard at Work.

The hot weather is having most de-
pressing effect upon the work of the
committeeman who are charged with the
preparations for the coming encampmens
OF the Grand Army of the Republic, to
be held In this city in October. Many
Of the committees that had been antici-
pating meetings during the present week
concluded to postpone their gatherings
until a mere propitious time. Fortu-
nately. however. the work OF the COM
n1ie;ces is n a well-advanced stage. and
the rest can be taken without endanger-
ing the success Of the enterprise.
Devoid cf Development.
Last week was rather devoid OF any
startling developments in the encamp-
nent situation. and was given over to
those preparations that appear irsigni-
foant in themselves. but which go to
make q great and harmonious whole.
With the return of Chairman Frank
K Raymond. Of the finance committee.
efforts have been renewed to increase
the fund. although most Of the people
who generously contribute to such
causes are now cut of the city and will
not return for several months From
assurances that have been made, how
ever. it IS believed that before the end
Of September the iong-Ecrked-for goal
of $4,000 as the size Of the subscription
fund will have been reached.
Assisting Finance Committee.
Chairman Brainard II. Warner has
been deToting considerable time of late
to assisting the finance committee in
their work and it is believed that with
in the next week or so he will be abba
to report several subscriptions that will
materially add to the fund. Mr.. Warner
is arranging TO give even more of his
time to the encampnent work in the
near future. and with that end in view
IS placing his personal affairs into such
condition as will permit of 1t. He Is
one OF those that do not for moment
question that the fund will be raised to
the desired amount. and that an official
