AN AMUSING INCIDENT.
Little Meriden Boy Returns Ten Cents
 to Grocer Unmack.

to Grocer Unmack.
 An amusing incident connected with the recent outing of the Business Mems association of this city to Lake COm- bounce recently occurred as the gene rosity of Grocer William H. Unmack of l34 Olive street. When the trolley cars were coming back from the lake and when they were just outside of Aeriden they stopped on a siding for few moments, and while they were there a large: number of children gath cred about the cars to listen to the mu- sic, and while doing so MT. Unmack distributed a lot of small coins among them.
 After the cars reached Meriden and while the party were waiting. for the train to convey them to this city, a little chap about five years old came up to MT. Unmack and said, Please, sir, all the other children got some money but me, and did not get any" Mir. Unmack took a dime out of his pocket and gave 1t to the boy. who thanked him for it and then went away.
 MT. Unmack thought no more about the incident and was greatly surprised when ex-President Edward I. Atwater handed him the following letter which had been sent to him because the writer could not find out the name of MT. Unmack:
 Meriden, Conn. Mr. Edward I. Atwater,
 New Haven, Conn.
 Dear Sir-You will probably remem- Der when the Meriden car stopped to take on passengers the two special cars stopped, too, and a good many men got off.
 ! You came over to where the children stood listening to the band. You gave the children some coins and probably supposed you had given one to each of the crowd. but you left out me. followed the car to the depot and, when the train came in, reminded you of the fact. You gave me ten cent piece As soon as you had gone I was sorry I had done 1t; it was too much like begging. I feel as though I ought tc return it and hence enclose it in this letter. Sincerely yours,
 EDWARD B. PENN.
 The letter has pleased MT. Unmacl and also all the other members of the association who have seen it, and MT Unmaek now says he intends to sent the little fellow check for present

STATE FoREsTER's WORK.
Valuable Experiments Being Made at

Valuable Experiments Being Made at
 Portland.
 Portland, July 1S.-State Forester Hawes is spending the month with J. c, Reeves, and with two assistants, Messrs FNilley and Hopwood from the national bureau of forestry, in making investigations, the results of which should be of interest to all woodland owners.
 The reasons for Connecticut entering upon a forest policy are similar to those which have led other states to undertake forestry on a much larger scale, This woodland will serve as an example of scientific methods of ham ding for greater financial returns than is now usual, and should prove a valua- ble object lesson to farmers. The state being of perpetual life, can afford to wait longer and thus raise larger tim Der than the individual, and the state will realize a good percentage on it's in- vestment.
 The Investigations which MT. Hawes is making this summer are to enable him to give exact information as to the amount of increased growth which may be expected from scientific treatment, especially of chestnut trees. One hum dred acres of the total one thousand acres have now been systematically thinned. Carefully selected plots are being marked out on this land and the rate of growth of the trees will be com paredd with that of untreated lots. A study will also be made of the relative values obtained from cutting trees into ties, poles, piles, etc., data being ob- tained where sawmills are in operation, J. c. Reeves, warden of the state for est, is always glad to show interested ones the work which has been done on the state land, and explain it's purposes

JAPANESE WILL

cordlng to competent Japanese authority
Baron komurn and Mr.. Takuhllu are
opposed to tch waving Of Jnpan's de-
mand for reimbursement OF War cx-
pcnses. This authority said:
In conference the Japanese contention
was that in conccding the ante-bellum
demands Of Japan, Russia admitted
either that she was beaten or that her
attitude prior to the war was unjustitied
and In either case Japan holds that Rus
sia should pay the cost Of the war. Japan
feels that Russin's talk OF saving her
face is hardly reasonable, claiming that
her face was lost when she conceded the.
ante ellum demanda which constituted
the real casus belll."fg
Advces received by the Japanese mis-
sion from home say that Japanese public
opinion Is not only bitterly opposed to
further concessions, but fnvors even harsh
or terms than thse originally presented.
The Japanese people feel, and their feel
ings, 1t Is said, will be respected by the
government that to weaken now would
mean that Japan must reopen the war In
n decade. -gtiF r55t @ Il
Better nghtit out now, while we have
an army In the field, T" they say, than
make n truce for 10 years or more and
then reopen hostilitles."
