Praise for American Militia.

The strength of the American land

also for expanding the regular army
in time of war. A rifle team of the
Seventh regiment of these volunteers
came over from New York last year
to shoot against team of our queens

in the world, under any condition OF
service, could have produced finer and
more intelligent men than these Amer.
lean citizen soldiers. and If they are
a specimen of the volunteers of the
United States-as doubtless they are

to her land forces than she has as to

Tax Revolt in Hungary.

The Budapest correspondent Of the

declares that the Hungarian reyolu-

Austria has begun.
As the Premier, Baron Fejervary, has
threatened to stop the salaries OF mu-
nlcipal officials obeying the command
of the Opposition not TO pay the taxes
they receive into the Treasury, Count
Itchy has promised 100000 to recoup
the officials for the losses they may
sustain. Baron Wesselenyi has prom
ised $1,000 for a similar purpose.
The Opposition are at present con-
slderlng a remarkable proposal to es-
tablish a kind of opposition Ministry
of Finance. to which taxes received
by the municipal athorities will be
paid. The money thus received will be
used for the payment of officials sal
aries, interest on the National debt,
and, If the Governments funds run
out, to maintain Hungarian credit.

HARDWOOD DISAPPEARS.
Problem of the Supply Twenty Years
Hence Serious One.

Where the American people will
draw their supply of hardwood from in
1925 or 1850 is a perplexing question:,
said William j. Tisdare OF Bay City, to
the Milwaukee Free Press. Walnut
has practically disappeared from the
face of the earth. commercially speak
Ing, and oak, ash and cherry will go
the same way in another quarter or
half century. They are fast being
cut down and nothing is done to renew
the supply. The day Is not far distant
when the world Will look to the vast
forests of Siberia, South America and
Africa for hardwood, and even this APP
parently limitless supply must some
day be exhausted. There is biz
quantity there yet, as the manufactur-
ing in those regions is quite limited,
but when the sawmills of America get
to work on them they cant survive
long. There are many mills In Michi
gan and in other states that use up fifty
acres of lumber In one day and get
away with twenty-five square miles OF
1t in n year. That is fast work. and the
forests of this planet are limited. 1t is
estimated that in a few years, say four
or five, the supply of oak, ash, cherry
and mahogany will be as completely
exhausted as is that of walnut at the
present time. Unsettled countries
must then contribute their hardwood
freely to the furniture factories of
America. and oak or ash kitchen cabi-
nets will be unknown In the homes OF
people of moderate means"

boo stick about two feet long in the
hole and then took a cocoanut and
handed it round. This cocoanut wns
empty, with three holes in 1t. 1t was
small one, and we all saw and felt it
was empty.

From Mr.. Hugh Clifford Mr.. Lang has

Clifford saw water fall, drop by drop,
from the blade, which became fiaccid,
like strip of India rubber. Thrown
on the ground, 1t bounced about, but
