Great Alarm In the City.
The burning of the school ship ere

conveyed at about II o'clock by the
firing of a cannon in the harbor. The
people hurriedly left the cafes and the

they could see the Algeciras, a mass OF
flame in the harbor. The burning YES

All forest supervisors have received
word from Washington that the agri-
cultural settlement bill, known as the
Lacey bill, providing for the entry OF
agricultural lands within forest re-
serves has been passed and is now a
law and that forest officials in charge
are to now act in accordance with
forest reserve order No. ~. recently
issued in advance of the enactment of
the bill into a law. These instructions
which plaintly define the duties of
forest officials, according TO the new
law, are as follows:
l. That the secretary of agricul-
ture may use his discretion about ex-
amining and listing lands under the
proposed law.
.. Only lands chiefly valuable for
agriculture and not needed for admin
istration purposes by the forest serv-
ice or for some other public use will
be classified and listed under the bill.
3. Land covered with a merchanta-
BILE growth Of timber will not be de-
clared agricultural. except upon the
strongest evidence of its value for ag-
ricultural purposes both as TO produce
ton and accessibility to market.
4. Areas known to have heen occu-
pied by actual settlers prior to jan
uary /, 1906. will be examined first,
and when such areas are found chiefly
valuable for agriculture they will be
listed. in order that the occupants may
make entry under the act. The mere
fact that man has settled upon land
will, however, not influence the de-
cision with respect TO its agricultural
character.
5. Any one who was a bona fide
settler on land within a forest reserve
before January l, 1906 but who ha,
already exercised or lost his home
stead privilege, may, II otherwise quail
flied, make homestead entry under
the provision Of the proposed Law. but
must pay $3.50 per acre for any lands
entered.
s. The first preference right tc
enter lands classified and listed under
the act will be given to persons wis
settled upon such lands prior to Janu
AIRY /. 1906. The second preferences
right to enter any particular LISTED
tract will be given to persons who ap
ply to have the classification made
