An UNUSUAL CASE.

II he PECULIAR CONDITIONS in
4 Utah which have occasioned some
curious court decisions on novel aues-
lions have never given rise to anything
more extraordinary than the supreme
court ruling in the Riddle case. which
vas reported in The Herald yesterday.
The suit was brought to determine the
responsibility of the husband for the
support Of a plural wife. An incidental
issue was the question as to which Of
several plural wives was the legal wife
after the death Of the first incumbent.
IN his opinion, Chief fb5tice Basldn
decides against the platNn wife. but
az the same time layB considerable
stress on the moral obligation Of the
U9oa'lo IN Sessss.5s,ase, not only to sup
port the WE at TO educate her chill
uFen1 It <5ssible that courts else
haVe had such cases to consider
but IL Is more likely that no court ever
before had to determine the points Of
law involved in this one, or to pass
upon moral obligation extra-judicial
in its nature
The status OF the defeated pIaintiff is
case is rare within the Jurisdiction OF
the Mormon church. A man who would
not recognize the moral obligation of a
rite and of associations established
Under a religious belief is not likely to
pay much attention TO a homily from
the supreme court on his duty: but for
tunately for the adherents of the Nor
mon faith and for the women who have
established such relations as this, the
cases have been few where the hus-
band deliberately failed Of either his
legal or moral duty to the mother of
his children. As it is. the decision
leaves the plaintiff without any means
by which she can compel support. it
establishes definitely her lack of any
legal right TO demand recognition as a
wife and II has. probably alienated the
affection Of the man upon. whom she
has been dependent.

AN ExpsRImENT IN FORESTRY.

A RECENT BULLETIN OF the bu-
4 rsau Of forestry Of the department
Of agriculture deals at length with the
experiments now in progress in timber
seasoning and preservation for use by
railroads. The question Is one Of i'm
pOrtance, primarily TO the railroads
but also to the general public as well,
since If the railroads get to producing
a cheap timber FOR use as ties il viii
make available for other uses larger
quantities Of more valuable woods. AT
present the timber consumption by
railroads is something enormous, and
the problem is a serious one for the
roads from the fact that the supply IS
more or less uncertain under existing
conditions Many railroads, especially
ina the east, have in the past been using
the higher grades of timber because
OF their greater durability, but the sup
ply that can be secured by the railroads
is yearly diminishing, owing to the
TACT that the timber can be sawed into
lumber and sold at greater profit.
The railroads, with the assistance of
the government. are taking up the
question: in earnest. TNe government
experts suggest that the roads resort
to the use of cheaper timbers, which
can be made to endure longer by prop
er seasoning. Instead Of long leaf pine
from Georgia. beech. maple and birch
are recommended. The bureau of for
estry's experiments are being con-
Quoted with a view to ascertaining
whether the cheaper woods cannot be
seasoned and given a preventative
treatment at a cost sufficiently low to
make it profitable for the roads to go
into the timber raising business. The
larger railroads CT the east are watch
ing the outcome Of the experiments
with interest, their idea being if the
/ experiments warrant the venture tc
! secure large tracts OF land and go into
the forestry business on a large scale
Here in Utah the Rio Grande rail
/ road has been experimenting for sew
/ eral years past with the catalpa tree
and several thousands of the trees arr

pany's direction at Provo. 1t j!
claimed that the catalpa is a splendid

ments thus far conducted show tina
it does well in Utah. The company in

that the ties may be utilized at th'
points needed with the cost Of hauling
