Attorney General to Proceed Against
 Beet Trust.
 WASHINGTON, April 25.-Attorney General Knox makes the following statement regarding the so called beef trust:
 'sOn April this department directed W. A. Day, Esq, of Washington in his capacity as special assistant to the at torney general to examine into as far as practicable the public charges to the effect that a combination of the large meat dealers of the United States had been effected contrary to the provi- sions of the laws of the United States. This preliminary examination resulted in instructions to MT. Day and MT. Bethea, United States attorney at Chi cago, on April ' to prosecute simulta- neously in Chicago and the east more particular examination into the allega- tions and proofs alleged to exist in sup port thereof.
 From their reports I am satisfied that sufficient evidence is in hand upon which bills in equity for an injunction can be framed to restrain tue comDina- ton mentioned from further proceed ing under their agreement, which clear ly appear to be in restraint of inter- state trade.
 T have therefore, in compliance with the law which provides, It shall be the duty of the several district attorneys of the United States in their respective districts, under the direction of the at torney general, to institute proceedings in p01Iify fO Drayenf and 1.aStraiIl vi0la- tions of this act directed the district attorney at Chicago to prepare bill for an injunction against the corpora tions and persons who are parties to the combination mentioned to be filed in the United States circuit court for the northern district of Illinois

The colored American., 1902-11-15

Offers exceptional opportunities to
young men wishing to prepare for the
Christian ministry. The chief aim of
the instruction is to afford young men
and women a comprehensive knowI-
edge of the English Bible and to i'm
plant in their hearts an ambition to
dedicate their lives to the elevation
and Outstanding of their race.
Students are required to do mission
airy work in the various churches and
Sunday Schools near the institution
and to report on same each week.
The teaching in the Bible school is
wholly undenominational, the inten-
ton being not to oppose or antagonize
any theological work now being done,
but rather to assist IL denominations.

very last session of the last day. that in going
to 1t the stuoent misses connection with an e1-
press and has to take unpleasant limited in
stead-if he can attend the recitation and still
get home before II o'clock the first day of his
vacation it is up to him to do II. It is the same
way with recitations after the vacation has
ended and the routine of college work has been
taken up again. The first O'Clock the first
morning after the recess must find every stu
dent back in his old seat-unleSS, of course, he
lives so far away that he could not possibly
keep that appointment without radically in
fringing on his vacation. The rule, III short, is
that each Harvard student shall have much
time at home as any man who lives in the
vicinity of Boston, and who can take the trolley
car to his door after his last college recita-
tion has been held. Those who are given time
off, to travel are, however, held strictly to their
promises, and if they agree to return to Cam
bridge at such time woe to them if they fail
in doing so.
Naturally these rules result in many delin-
quencies and many predicaments. If man is
calling on his sweetheart it is mighty easy to
miss the SLOW limited train that would bring
him back to Cambridge in time for his first 9
o'clock, and take the fast, comfortable Pullman
express, which gives him two more blssful
hours with his hearts desire, and carries him
cross country in luxury and ease Or if stu
dent has his best invitation the night when
he ought to go-or a dance-or thousand and
one things which appeal to him-these all whis-
per their temptations to him, and strong is he
who can withstand them and say No"

days following the ten days of Christmas vaca-
ton find all kinds of Harvard men doing pen
ance with the college office. Good, bad and in
different are all ION prob" Chat is, probation),

10 the government Mr.. Lukens got the forestry
authorities sufficiently interested to investigate
his findings Last year they sent out William
i. Hall. Chief of the Bureau of Forestry Exten-
sion, to inspect the burned forests with Mr..
Lukens. After q few days tramping over peaks
and through canyons the government represen-
tatiVe returned to secure appropriation from
the government for tree planting. The money
with which the present force is maintained was
the result of Chief Halls visit. a larger ap-
preparation is expected after January l, the
chief favorabiy impressed with the prac-
ucability of planting.
The seeds sown are principally OF the Pinus
tuberculata, that grows plentifuly in many
parts Of these mountains. The cones are ad
hesive that they can be loosened only in the dry
est days Of summer. The seeds have to be sub
sected to husking and drying process that
makes their preparation SLOW Mr.. Lukens has
spent many months gathering the seeds and
preparing and sacking them at his camp in Bear
Valley. Other seeds planted at different eleva-
tons and according to local conditions to
soil and shade are the cedar of Lebanon, sugar
pine ponderosa and sabin pine Pinus tuber
culata is the most valuable, growing at almost
any elevation. Its value lies in its power of
conserving water and its thick green foliage,
that turns aside the raVages OF flame
The actual planting OF the seed Is simple Inc

The holes are dug about eight feet apart One
man can dig and plant about two hundred holes

Mr.. Lnkens has found by experiment in the last
few years that the seeds sprout within month

II find Harvard students cutting Christmas
ice' with sweethearts, relatives and friends
The homegoing process at Harvard is al
ways a unique and interesting one. The rule of
the college is that students may leave Cam
bridge in time to reach home on the evening
of the first day of the recess; that men living
n California generally get five six days start
of the others, while those who live in Boston,
SomervlIe or any of the adjacent subu1 bs have
to stay pIucl ly to the very end. going to reci-
tatons, where the attendance is steadily and

One rule alone keeps these classes from fall
ing off entirely. and that is the rule that any
student cutting any recitation before after
