TO LIMIT. FOREST FIRES.
Employment Of Daily Patrol and the
Telephone.

Forest fires. the greatest enemy of for
ests were long regarded as practically be-
yond control It was well understood that
they brought destruction to the forests
greater than that brought by any other
agency. But now 1t is better and better ap-
preciated that they can be prevented, al
most without exception, by due care and
organized effort.
To serve as an object lesson for others
and also to show how practical are proper
preventive measures, the forest service, dur
ing the present season. has been co-operat-
ing with the McCloud River Lumber Com
pany. Siskiyou county, Cal. in plan of fire
protection on the forest lands Of the COM
pany This plan. though quite simple, has
proved 80 effective that no serious fires
have occurred.
During the very dry months-June to Oc-
tober-there Is a daily fire patrol; tele-
phone system connects all parts Of the COM
pany's holdings; tool stations at readily ac-
cessible places are maintained, and FIRE
lanes are kept open to serve as barriers to
stop the spread OF any fire which may break
out and reach dangerous size before it is
detected. The neighboring Inhabitants lend
their aid against the fires. and in so doing
show a very encouraging change In local
sentiment
Experience in this case we'll enforces the
forester's lesson that right sentiment and
hearty cooperation, backing UP simple pre-
cautions. will effect enormous saving by the
timely suppression or entire prevention Of
forest fires.

UTILIZING THE LANsroNs.
Public Printer Ricketts, Planning Their
Disposition.

0AoPOoASAOA.
Public Printer Ricketts, is planning the
work Of his Office so that he can most
probably employ the seventy-two Lanston
typesetting machines that were purchased
by order of former Public Printer Palmer.
While Mr.. Ricketts, disapproved the pur-
chase of so many OF these machines. as he
did not consider the work Of the Office and
the test OF their efficiency warranted 1t.
he has set to work actively in order to
make the most possible out of them.
To do that he has taken into considera-
ton not only the kind of work that the
machines can best perform, but has also
planned to give them copy that will fully
test their efficiency in accordance with the
claims made for them. He will see that
the greatest assistance is given to the men
In the operation of the machine. SO that
they may make as good a record pos
sible.
1t was remarked at the government print
ing Office today that the care Mr.. Ricketts,
Is taking in order to make good this invest
ment of the government is so pronounced
that any one who did not know the cir
cumstances under which the machines were
purchased might suppose that he was the
first to favor their introduction into the
Office so large scale

WAS VIEWED WITH SUCCESS.
Admiral Chester Reports on the OBJ
servation Of the Solar Eclipse.

Rear Admiral C. M. Chester, commanding
the United States eclipse expedition. has
reported by mail to the Navy Department
from Genoa the successful observations of
the total eclipse of the sun August 30 by
all the parties under his command at the
stations In Spain and Africa. One Of the
most gratifying features Of the expedition.
says the admiral. was the marked interest
displayed in the work by the crews of the
ships, whose intelligence and resourceful-
ness, he adds. overcame many difficulties
in installing the delicate instruments be-
longing to the party.
But above ALL" remarked Admiral Ches-
ter, was mostly pleased with the excel
lent conduct of the men sent with the shore
parties. / believe our men left behind them
as kindly sentiments Of esteem as we take
away with us for the hospitable people Of
SPAIN
In closing the admiral said: IT may be
permitted to add that feel that the COM
plete success of the work OF the expedition.
In spite Of many difficulties to be overcome
and the comparatively small appropriation
available, reflects credit upon both the per-
sonnet and material OF the navy. and 1t Is
a matter of conGratulation also that all Of
our eclipse stations were 80 fortunate as
to enjoy clear weather at the critical mo-
ment. without which all the labor and ex-
pense would have been almost. IL not en-
tirely, useless"

RECEIVES CONGRATULATIONS.
Letters and kilograms on Desk Of
Corporation Counsel.

That the appointment Of Edward H.
Thomas, first assistant corporation coun-
sci under the regime of the late Andrew b.
Duvau to the place made vacant by the
Death of his former chief, was a popular
one could not be doubted by any one who
saw the mountainous pile of mail received
By the newly chosen official this morning.
Hundreds of missives Of congratulation
there were-and scores of kilograms con-
veying the joy of friends at Mr.. Thomas
good fortune.
Resides this the telephone of the just
appointed corporation counsel was kept
ringing almost continuously from the mo-
ment his selection was announced until late
in the evening.
To all this the Commissioners, individual
iy and collectively. added the expression OF
their entire confidence In the incumbency
of Mr.. Thomas, which confidence, 1t was
declared. was inspired by long observation
OF the work OF the new department chief
when he was acting In the stead Of his
predecessor.
With the end of uncertainty as to Mr..
Duyalrs successor all interest Is centered
In the selection Of the man to take the
place as first assistant in the Office made
vacant by the promotion Of Mr.. Thomas.
With this matter in mind scores of callers
thronged the Commissioners floor at the
District building all Of today. and 1t could
be safely said that fully as many interviews
were granted by the heads of the District
government over the telephones as were
held in their offices. Members Of the bar
there were who sought by every means in
their power to gain the coveted post-and
others. it may be added. were content to
rest with simply allowing their candidacy
to be announced. To one and all, however,
the Commissioners gave the same answer
that Mr.. Thomas wishes in the matter of
choosing his successor would be regarded,
the Commissioners feeling sure that the new
corporation counsel will best know the
qualifications necessary in the man who Is
to be his chief aid In caring for-the legal
END OF District business.
Mr.. Thomas, when seen by a Star reporter
late this afternoon. said he had not yet
settled the question.

Britain's 33-Knot Destroyers.

From the London Graphic.
Contracts have now been arranged for
the construction of five seagoing destroy
ers included in the navy program for the
current year. These vessels are a great
advance upon anything that has yet been
done in torpedo-boat destroyers. as the
speed guaranteed, unL er penalty. by tho
contracting firms is to be thirty-three knots
when the vessels are carrying a load Of
coal Sufficient to give them a radius of
action of 5000 miles at about ten knots
speed.
This condition Is much more severe than
was exacted In the case OF the thirty-knot
torpedo boats: and. moreover. the scant-
lings proposed for these high speed craft
will be considerably heavier. 1t Is true
that speeds Of thirty-two to thirty-three
knots were attempted by one or two build
ers in connection with the 1S97-98 program
but the highest realized on trial was thirty
boats were not required to meet the same
stringent conditions as Is the case with
these new thirty-three-knot craft The
boilers are to be ones of the express type.
adaptable for using oil fuel. and the pro-
polling machinery in all cases will be Of
the Parsons turbine type. The displace-
ment of the boats will average over 500
TONS SO that very considerable power will
require to be developed to attain the speed.
1t is the intention to order later an expert
mental destroyer, which II is expected will
have a speed Of thirty-s,x knots.
