GETTING WEALTHY FROM STUMPS
The Industry That Utilizcs the Neglected Ends Of the Pine Forest--Talk of a Big Enterprise to
 Be Started in This District.

Why, it is true that now you can almost count the timber land owners of the country all around Mobile on your fingers. Land Is being bought in by individuals tracts for use when the price of the yell low pine has largely increased, and the small millman must depend on the grow ing trees. If these are marred. by the turpentine distiller the lumbermen will suffer.
 But outside of that. Think of the millions of acres throughout the yellow pine belt where almost for miles one can see nothing but stumps, and think Of 1t in the Night that the stump is the very best part of the tree for the pro auction of turpentine. and the associated oils-and think again that all that is need ed to make these lands valuable is that they be cleared. Here Is a process where by the clearing of the, land will be made. worst land $ the best from a financial stan1point The chemical process of ex- traating the oils from the pine is destined to revolutionize some portions of the bloom like a garden. If the land was cleared, you know, 1t would be valuable for agricultural purposes, but under the old stump meant dead loss of both en- ergy and money. It was a hard proposi- ton to the settler Of course he could get the land on plenty of time, but the grubbing and clearing stood out like mountain in, in tn the eyes of most Now 
 cleared for the farmer without cost to him, and 1t will not be long till the chem ical people will be willing to pay him good price for the old stumps and limbs and other waste from the trees"
 The extraction of the commercial oils from the pine by chemical means has been secret until very recently. There are very few factories in the world. But it sems chat now sveral have the secret and a syndicate has apparently been formed in Chicago for exploiting the new invention, as there are now some five gentlemen in this section looking into propositions of this character, and 1t is understood that one of them has been placed. and will put up big plant with out delay. Mobile is already a proven market for all the products of the pine tree, and for this reason 1t Is the belief that 1t will be the centre of trade for all time to come. Savannah will of course control the turpentine branch, as here ttofore. but the other oils will be quoted and sold from here.

AMELANCHOL SUBJECT.
THEE "TuRN DOWN" or CoRBIN
 BY METROPOLITAN CLUB.
what the Adjutant General of the Army Will Do When Lord Roberts Comes to Washing
 ton is a Question.

Washington, April 1s.-Special. 1.-The s'turn down" of Adjutant General Corbin by the Metropolitan Club, Washington's most exclusive social organization, Is a peculiarly sombre affair.
 Just little while ago General Corbin, radiant with pleasant recollectionsr re- turned to his desk at the War Depart whither he and Gen. Leonard Wood, and other officers, went to see the maneu- vres of the continental armies. The Amercan officers were lavishly enter tadned by the social leaders of the for. eign capitals. Naturally appreciative of the distinction accorded them, they prom tsed to have something doing for their hosts should they visit the United States. London by Lord Roberts, was especially ardent in his pressure upon the epauletted celebrities of the other side to come across and have a good time. It is melancholy subject. but one about which people will talk. It is said that General Lord Roberts of Kandahar, and other things, ts contemplating tour this year ined, the dazpuement is fraugh with poig- nant sensations to the Adjutant General. What he will do when "Bobs' comes to Washington is among all the curious a subject of most feverish conjecture.
 Among the Board of Governors who sat and heard in protracted conference the merits of General Corbin's nomination for membership of the Metropolitan Club were Cne ni8neSt OmCefS or tne army ana navy, to wit: Lieutenant General Miles and Admiral Dewey. It is said that those two famous men sat and listened silently to all that was said and that, finally when the proposer of Corbin's name Paymaster General Bates. indicated a disposition to withdraw the nomination they stiil sat wordless.
 During the war with Spain, as may be remembered, Adjutant General Corbin was in a position where he could have favored General Miles in an ardently- cherished aim. That was to get to the front General Miles, instead of being al- lowed to command the army which won the land giories of Santiago. was only sent back and forth between Washington and Tampa, and. notwithstanding his ex- alted rank in the army. his exceptionally good record as soldier, and his unim- paired vigor and enthusiasm, he was kept riding back and forth between the capi- tal and the Florida sandbars.

 He said the society should by no means disband If there could be found a pos sibiifty of its future existence. and said he could name and give address of eight families in Mont sotnery who are pow erty strl .ken and in sore need of assist ance.
 President w. D. Brown made a few remarks tending his resignation to the so- ciety. He gave as ais reason that he would be out of the city much of the summer and could lot give the proper time to the duties of his office. The Association asked Mir.
