POLICE COURT DoINGs
A Couple of Founders Before Judge
 Peasley To-Day.

It was thought there would be no judge for the city court again to-day, but after waiting some time Judge Peasley showed up. Frank Stone was charged with intoxication. Stone is an old rounder. He is one of the roundest rounders that comes before this court and was one of those wh' had to be let go yesterday for lack ot a judge. He celebrated his release by getting gloriously drunk. He was sen- fenced to thirty days in jail.
 Mrs Lizzie Leonard. who has also been there before, was charged with breach of the peace. Her neighbors testified against her and from their ev- idence it would appear that she is a terror. Her husband stated that he has, yells and screams, oaths and pro- fanity for breakfast, dinner and sup per. She laid all the blame on his shoulders. Her sentence was sixty days in jail.
 Pasquale Cimino and his country man and ibrother-in-law Jim Sullivan, were charged with creating an uproar on Chatfie1d avenue last night. Cards and drink was the source of the dis turbance. Cimino is subject to fits when in a temper and it appears he threw stones and resisted arrest and his brother-in-Iaw helped him out. Ci- mino was fined $1O ana costs and Sul- ivan $5 and costs.

SAVE THE HARDWOODS.
Thousands of Axes Kept Constantly at
 Work Cutting Them Down.


 Memphis is the largest hardwood Number market in the world, and Mem phis is proud of the fact, because Mem phis wants to be first and largest in everything that is good; but Memphis and the entire hardwood producing section of the country have cause for alarm over the rapid and indiscrimf- nate slaughter of hardwood trees that is going on, says the Memphis Conner cial-Appeal. sts
 The waste is something startling. Giant trees are cut down and their trunks hauled to convenient sawmills to be cut up into boards or blanks. or scantling or beams; or the. logs are loaded on cars and shipped to the far north and east; or theY are rafted on the streams and foateo rv tidewater and shipped to foreign countries. In the mere matter of slaves and stave getting thousands of axes are kept go- ing constantly and the, destruction is great. Much good lumber in the tops and branches that. could be utilized is left to rot on the ground. Millions of feet of it is being sent abroad annually that is needed at home or which will be needed at home. -Nt
 This should be discouraged as much as possible. The south is unbuilt, and houses and homes of men must be built in town and country, on hill and val- ley, in it's cuddled coves and across the sweeps of its vast prairies, and much lumber will be required for this. This one item alone would strip many thou sands of acres annually. Then the question of railroad ties must be considered. There are in the south, or soon will be, about 100000 l miles of railroad, including side tracks; switches, double tracks, etc., and on these are used about 5000 ties to the | mile. The average life of a tie is about six years, which means that an aver age sof 50,0oo miles of roadbed must re- ceive new ties every year, which will require in all 1S0o0o,o GOO ties, and in l the six years 9O0,000,0OO new tics must 1 be provided, sufficient amount to de- nude forest of enormous proportions. l This number of railroad crossties at 1 50 cents each would aggregate the vast sum of $45o,O0O ,Ooo, which, considered mere as one item, is worth lookin g after. ..s- -s 1 Our hardwood forests are expansive, but not inexhaustible, and we should protect them. War should first be de- clared on the arch enemy of the public, the man who begins clearing off land for agricultural purposes by first mak- ing "deadnin' "-by first murd dering hundreds and hundreds of valuable trees by cutting circle around them so that the sap cannot rise in the spring, and leaving them to slowly rot away and fall piecemeal, as though af- f1icted with leprosy. This wanton de- struction of property is a crime and punished severely when committed. It is less common than formerly, but it is f yet being committed.

MERRITT IN REPLY.
To Charges, of Former Cashier $. w. rs. .E Tulloch.


 WASHINGTON, May 3O.-Postmas- ter General Payne made public. the re- ply of Postmaster Merritt of this city to the Tulloch charges. The Merritt re- sponse makes serious accusations against former Cashier $. w. Tulloch of the Washington post office, saying that transaction in which MT. Tul- loch was concerned in 1898 appears to comprehend the presentation of a false voucher, which is made a crime by the statutes"
 MT. Merritt's reply further alleges that receipts were signed in blank on the pay rolls during MT. Tulloch's re- gime as cashier and that the files do not indicate any complaint of irregu- larities against the Washington post office filed by MT. Tulloch while he was in office. MT. Merritt says the general practice of giving employees duties seemingly incompatible with their po- sitions is no abuse and that the prac- tice of paying certain expenses of the post office department out of the Wash ington city post office funds always has existed and is proper.
 The postmaster general announced the completion of the investigation of the salary rolls of all the first and sec ond class post offices in the country. The only irregularities reported, all of l which have been ordered to be correct ed immediately, were the payment to fourteen assistant postmasters of lar ger salary than they should receive un- der the departments policy, payments to a few clerks of more than the law allows and the existence of designa- 1 tions unknown to the law for positions 1 in seventeen post offices. MT. Payne said that none of these items indicated any wrongdoing, and he regards this net result of the overhauling of the rolls of upward of 1900 presidential l post offices as gratifying.
 The reply of Postmaster General Charles Emory Smith will be given out Sunday. Fourth Assistant Postmaster General Bristow's reply, which will be made public later, according to Post master General Payne, denies that he ever asked investigation of the office o1 the first assistant postmaster general.

R. and Spanish War Veterans, who acted as the guard of honor, and the long lines of railroad employees who followed immediately after the presidents party. More than 5000 chil- dren, representing the public school pupils, were gathered at Lester park, and there the president made few re- marks.
