DIDN T HEAR SAFE CRACKERS.


Leadville, May 13-The safe at the
Black Hawk livery stable. owned by
Edwards Donnen, was broken open
sometime between midnight and morn
ing and robbed of $3.50. The drawer
above the one that was pried open
contained $500, but this was not taken.
Charles Moore, father in law. of
Edwards. was asleep in the room about
fifteen feet from the safe, but did not
hear the robbers. He states that he
suffers from deafness and did not hear
any noise. The safe was broken open
with slegde hammer and was badly
damaged.
Mr.. Donnen is well known min
ing lhan here and lives in Denver.
The officers working on the case have
several good clues which they believe
will result in the catching of the
burglars.

FIRES
FRIGHTFUL
RECORD.

IatSU year WITHIN TWO weeks over
S12, 900. 900 worth of timber and other
property was destroyed by forest fires
in Oregon and Washington. This
enormous loss occurred upon restrict
ed area and represented only very
small part of the annual loss from this
source. Every timbered region of the
United States suffers year after year
from fire. The annual loss is estimat-
ed at from $25, 900, 900 to $3.50, 600, 600.
Forest fires have been regarded as al
most inevitable, and few systematic
attempts have been made to prevent
or control them except in the states of
New York. Pennsylvania. and Minnes-
ota, which have efficient systems of
fire protection.
The Bureau of Forestry has under
taken this year thorough study of
the forest-fire problem in several diff
erent regions. 1t has placed men in
forest districts to study fires while in
process of burning. Instead of wait
ing until the fires are over and relying
for information ON local reports, as
has been done heretofore. the fires are
now being observed by the bureau S
agents and full data will be obtained
as to how they were caused, how fast
they burn, what conditions favor or
hinder them. and just what damage
they do to the soil and to tree growth.
Each agent of the bureau has been
assigned to district and is investi-
eating all fires that occur within his
territory. For example, one man
studies a lumber tract, another a farm
ing district, third 'turpentine or
chard, etc.
In connection with this detail study,
the agents will observe the methods
of fire protection practiced by rail-
roads and other owners of timber
lands. The fire warden system of the
states which have forest fire laws, and
the patrol system in use on the FEEDER
al forest reserves will also be observed
closely.
BY such methods the Bureau of
Forestry hopes to replace with care
fully gathered facts the vague general
notions that now exist about forest
fires. When the problem is solved for
any particular region, the bureau will
be ready to recommend methods of fire
prevention and control for the private
land owner, and to suggest forest fire
legislation for the various states.
The investigation is now in progress
in northern Florida and southern Ala
bama and Georgia under the direction
of Earnest A. Sterling. H. J. Tomp-
kins, with a small corps of assistants.
has begun the work in Minnesota,
Wisconsin ana Michigan. Later in
the season study will be made of
forest fires on the Pacific coast.
