In spite of the called council meeting
Wednesday evening, the Grinnell Elec-
trio and Heating Company have gone
ahead and put in their new boiler In
accordance with their first plan. Many
row think the city council was wise in
rot taking any radical action against
the placing Of the new boiler in Third
avenue, as the company are paying for
the privilege In light and other consid-
erations, the library and other public
buildings being lighted at low rate.

allowing the company to use Third
avenue far exceed those that would be
derived from the opening of Third ave-
nue. to travel. as 1t would be Of value
to but very few. 1t is true that the
west end Of Third avenue Is entirely
free from the Rock Island tracks, but
the east end would be trap and would
be all cut up by the tracks. 1t is thought
that the council meeting next Monday
evening will be of more than usual in
terest, as this question will be decided
then.
At the NJ. z. parsonage last Wednes-
day evening occurred the marriage of
Mr. George Hafkey, Of Chester, and

Cedar Falls, Jan. 3.-Blackhawk
county and this immediate vicinity in
largest number Of farm sales in its his
tory. This is attributed in the main
to the general prosperity prevailing
among the farmers. 1t has been a poor
week when there were not four sales
billed to be held, and some weeks have
seen five. These have continued from
early fall to the present time, and there
are many yet billed to come off between
this time and March l. Most OF the
business in this vicinity has fallen to
S. P. VINEGAR who has cried during
the season seventy farm sales, knock
ing off under his hammer property val
ued at over $4,000, according to the
bids received. BY these sales Black
hawk county will lose many OF her
most successful and progressive farm
ers. The returns of the year have made
it possible for most of the renters 10
make a payment on farm OF their
own in country north and west, where
land is not 50 high. The places made
vacant by these men are being filled as
rapidly as they are made. Out of the
seventy sales there is but one farm
that has no tenant for next year. There
is a visible increase in the number OF
men who are returning to the tilling OF
the soil for living. The high prevail
ing prices in town have made 1t almost
imperative for some to seek cheaper
ways of living.
Bankers fear that this 100000 capital
which has been taker from the state
and invested in northern lands will
cause a financial stringency.
Mr.. Vinegar, the crier of the seven
ty sales, is past sixty years of age. and
has been engaged the greater part of
his life In farming. He owns good
farm in Grundy county, on which he
made a neat sum of money. For four
years he has been engaged In the auc-
pioneering bushes, the past three years
in this city, giving his entire time to
the business. He Is a good judge of live
stock and has been called as a judge in
fair exhibits.

State Of Iowa Derived MICE sum Last

Des Moines, Jan. 3.-The state of
Iowa has done very we'll in the matter
of collecting fees from the new cor

closed. The total fees received from
the source of articles Of incorporation
filed with the secretary of state and
recorded was $213.T4S.5S. The total for
1901 was $54,139.50. This enormous
increase has been due partly to the in
crease in business done and the ten
dency to incorporate almost every
thing in the state, but more largely to
the new laws of the last general as
senbly. The increase Of fees due en-
t.rely to this legislation amounted to

HOW HUMBERTS
CAME TO GRIEF

MADRID, December 20. All the
Humbert gang of swindlers, who OBJ
tanned millions of francs from credu-
lous French bankers and capitalists,
and who fed from Paris last May when
their frauds were exposed, were arrest
ed here today by the police. Among
the party were Madame Humbert, her
husband, Frederick .Humbert, her
daughter Eva, and the three d'AuTig-
macs, Roumain, Emile, and Marie The
police suspected a house in the Gale
Ferray. Some time yesterday Roumain
d'Aurignac was seen to enter the build
ing. A search warrant was obtained
and the house surrounded. After some
difficulty the police were admitted and
arrested the long-sought defaulters
The prisoners protested that they were
the victims of infamous proceedings
They threatened to get even" with
certain persons in France and said
they had come TO Madrid direct from
Paris. Mademciselle Eva became hys-
terical and Madame Humbert clasped

Marie d'Aurignac and her daughter in
her arms, pleading with the police,
For the love of God do not separate
me from my daughter"
The police made an inventory of the
contents of the apartment and found
a parcel of jewels valued at $4,000, a
couple of lottery tickets and about s115
in cash. Seals were then attached to
the house and the whole family were
removed to the Jail and were placed at
the disposition of the French Embas-
sador. The police suspect the Hum
berts of having disposed of important
papers in the lavatOries while delay
ing the entry of the officers. The fam
lily tried to escape by the windows but
failed, as the house was surrounded by
a Gordon of police.
The Project of Police subsequently
had an audience with King Alfonso
and reported the capture. The King
congratulated the Project, saying: Il
rejoice that our police have been able
to render service to France" The Pre-
feet said he had known of the presence
OF the Humberts for a week but delay
ed taking action until he was assured
he had the whole party Gagged. The
Humberts maintain that they are limo
cent, declaring they themselves have
been victimized, and say they desire to
return to France and defend them
selves against the charges.

forestry has become a profession. Sew
eraI hundreds of young men, and soon,
several thousands of young men, will
become managers of great, forest es-
tates, at large salaries.
The Iumbermen have been taught that
their ways of cutting timber are waste
full, and that by judicious management
of forest lands, a large increase of profit
private estates have in many cases ap-
piled for educated foresters, who can
intelligently superintend the cutting of
the trees, and the replanting of the
lands cleared of timber. The planting
of trees and the preparation of lumber
has become a new industry, which dur
ing the century will assume large pro-
portions. Some of the railroad COM
panies have taken the sadvice of Mr..
Pinchot and are now extensive tree
planters. The railroads of the country
require the timber of one million acres
of land annually for ties, and poles.
The Forestry Bureau teaches them that
the supply in the future can be secured
only by planting trees at the present
time. The Santa Fe railroad has al
ready planted over fifteen hundred
acres.
This young man, who has hardly
reached his manhood, is the chief and
front of this valuable industry, and his
influence penetrates to every county of
every State.
He is the owner of one of the finest
residences in Washington city, which
is already the center of a large circle
of men and women engaged in scientific
investigation. His mother, a lady of
much personal beauty, resides with him,
and takes charge of his fine bachelor
establishment.
He stands as one of the best examples
of the right use of wealth in America.
Owing to his example several hundred
young men have entered the profession
of forestry and in the near future there
will undoubtedly be many thousands
who will enter this profession with
profit.

Maru, and of whose short visit some
notice was taken in this paper, is a
representative young American and an
excellent example of the rich young
man in public life. at the early age
of thirty-three he has made himself
the most prominent forester in the Uni
ted States, by sheer industry and intel
ligent study, and in spite of the fact
that he is handicapped by great wealth.
His grandfather died several years ago
leaving u fortune OF near thirty mil
lions of dollars of which a fair share
went to his mother. He was graduated
by Yale College in 1889, and is class
mate of Mr.. Geo. R. Carter of this city.
On leaving college he began the study
of forestry, and spent three years in the
Black Forest of Germany, under the Sc
we're tuition of German government in
structors. On returning to the States,
he was engaged by Mr.. George Wander
biIt to survey and plan his vast forest
preserves at Biltmore, N. c., which is
destined to be the most typical and val
liable preserve on the continent, if not
In the world.
In the meantime his family invested
$50, 900 in a school of forestry in
Connecticut, in connection with Yale
College, and on their farm students
make their preliminary studies. In
1898, ten years after graduating,
Mr.. Pinchot was made chief of the
Division of Forestry of the Agricul-
tural department in Washington. Under
him the great forest regions still owned
by the government are being surveyed
and cared for. The land under survey
covers 100000 acres of land, and the
timber spectators are excluded from it.
This means a future value accruing to
the people of the country which can be
calculated only in the hundred millions
of dollars.
