FOREST PRESERVATION.
Important Work Has Been Begun
by Massachusetts.

Perhaps the most i'm oortant step
that has been recently taken towards
solving the problem of restoring our
American forests will be taken shortly
10 Massac husetts under the direction
of Governor Bates.
The work will be carried on by the
convict camps, and the plans include
the gradual restoration of the entire
forest growth of Massachusetts.
According to the Boston Advertiser,
"the state will take the lands by right
of eminent domain. Only land cOnsid-
cred worthless, but good enough to
plant trees on, will be taken. Outside
of the large cities of MassachNse tts
such land exists almost everywhere.
The land long ago refused to pay taxes
on IT, 1t is 10 all practical purposes
public land today. There is other
land almost as worthless on which
small taxes have been paid, the land
being assessed at only nominal price.
This land also, if taken by eminent do
maiD, could be bought for little more
than the expenses of condemnation.
SIN almost every case this land was
once the site of a forest. but the wood
has been cut Off AS it is good for
nothing else but woodland the owners
will be glad to get anything for it.
The takings by the state, therefore,
will amount in all to good many
Thousand acres probably. The total
cannot yet be stated because even the
state officials have not decided upon
that total"

HUSBANDS PRO tenn.
The Matrimonial Experience of a
Wealthy Woman.

Mrs. Grace Smell COffin-Coffin-W Walk
er-Coffin- Layman, of Chicago, is suing
for divorce from her fifth husband,
three of whom were the same.
Mrs. Coffin Coffin Walker Coffin Lay.
man is 81 years of age, and was Miss
Smell previous to Der first marriage,
After her father died, leaving her very
wealthy, she married Coffin. Before
long she reached the conclusion that
Coffin was not the man for her. Pos
siblY he was not gay enough. Or it
might have been that he was too gay.
At any rate she divorced him. She
subsequently, reconsidered her action,
and forgave Coffin, who married her
again.
During his second incumbeDcy, how
ever, Coffin proved himself no more
suited than before to the tastes of his
tickle spouse, and she divorced him
again.
Shortly afterwards she met Walker
and tried him awhile. Walker failed
to measure up to the standard, and so,
with the aid of the courts, she dis
charged himI
Once thoroughly rid OF Walker, our
heroine lived single for time, and
naturally her mind reverted to the old
days with their romantic memories.
Back to Coffin her heart insensibly
drlfted, and it was not long before she
had again allied her fortune with the
husband of her young girlhood.
Very soon she discovered that Coffin
had not changed one whit since his
first term, and that he was more intol-
cradle than ever. She accordingly
sent him adrift the third time, and
married Layman. He in turn, was I'M
satisfactory. From him she is now
seeking a divorce; and pending the
successful issue of her case she is
casting about for Husband VI.
Strange to say, she has decided that
she would rather have her old faithful
Coffin than anyone else, after all. 1t is
said that she has telegraphed to Coffin
this message:
"Please marry me just once more,
Frank, dear"'
To which Coffin telegraphed in reply:
mo more at present. l. think l
have married you for positively the
last time"
Verify, the Woman of Samaria liveth
once more upon the earth.
Is it not a farcical civilization that
allows such proceedings IN the name
of law and order?
But we must commend Coffin for his
refusal to accept fourth term.

MANY FARMERS VICTIMS.
Washington and Wilkes County
People Finn PLANNED.

A number of citizens of Washington
and Wilkes county have been victim
lied by a shrewd fiim-ham artist, says
the Atlanta News. The gentleman in
question arrived some days ago, made
a good appearance and was glib and
plausible talker. He put up at the
Hotel johnson and gave it out that he
represented number of eastern cap
italists who contemplated establishing
several mills near Washington. After
throwing out his bait he succeeded in
borrowing considerable money and
then left for parts unknown. He gave
the name of r. c. Murray, and the po-
lice in Atlanta and several other cities
in the state have been notified to be
on the lookout for him.

COST OF RAISING COTTON.
Hon. ]. Pope Brown Says 1t Takes Sil
Gems a Pound Grow he Sta pie.


From the Atlanta Journal.
when | began growing cotton it
was worth about 10 cents a pound, "
said Hon. J. Pope Brown talking to a
group in the lobby of the Piedmont.
Then ] had to learn how to plant and
harvest it so as to make it profitable at
8 cents, cents, I cents and so on down
the scale. OF course it knocked US out
when it got down to 4 cents. My ex-
perience is that it costs cents to raise
cotton. I do not believe it can be
planted, cultivated, picked, ginned,
etc., for less sthan six cents pound.
With the present prospect it looks as
if the farmers are going to get good
prices for their cotton this autumn.
The farmers certainly deserve this
prosperity IN prices, as they have been
at the mercy of the spectators for
many years"
