TRAGIC DEATH OF FARMER.
Theodore 6. IhOrst0n's Life is Crushed
Out in Shutdown.

Theodore G. Thorston, a prosper
Gus and Woodworking young farmer
OF Shutdown township, met a sad
and untimely death Tuesday evening
while returning home from a trip to
Wanda, says the Springfield Ad-
vance.
The exact manner in which he met
such tragic and sudden death is a
matter of conjecture only.
At o'clock in the afternoon he
left home with a load of wheat
which he was to market at Wanda
Before taking his departure he in
formed the boys that he would be
back home at about 8 o'clock. His
wife did not think much of his pro-
longed absence until 9 o'clock at
night at night, when she began to
worry that some misfortune had
befallen him. She finally telephoned
to her husbands brother, John M.
Ihorston, who, accompanied by his
brother Peter, started out at about
| o'clock at night to search for him.
The dead body was found about Il
miles from the home, lying prone
upon the ground. The body was
lying near the road on the sloping
side of the grade with the head in
the road. An examination revealed
the fact that the entire skull was
crushed to a pulp beginning at a
point just above the eyes. The body
was picked up and taken to the un-
fortunate mans home.
The conjecture is that Mr.. Thors-
ton fell off of the spring seat in a
falnting spell, as he had complained
more or less during the past year of
heart trouble, and that the wheels
of the heavily loaded wagon passed
over his head.
The deceased was 43 years and 7
months old, and besides a loving
wife he leaves a family of six chill
dren to mourn the sudden and tragic
death.

GOLD TIDE RISING.

The worlds crop OF gold in 1905 was
the largest In history In ounces IT

ounce at 12O6I. in value $S76. .462. .S11. This
IS an increase of more than $50 900. 600

than NN,ov0,0q0 in the last ten years
Out OF the countries that contributed
TO this enormous output Africa was
nrSt with 5.494,47 ounces: the United
States. AIS. DO; Australia, 4l5S. lSS, -ft7ls-
sia about 100000: Canada. 667, SOS: ana
Mexico. fSo,00e. All of the increase in
1895 and 1864 was in Africa. the United
states and Mexico. as the other coun-
tries mentioned showed a falling off in
the amount of gold produced. 1t is esti-
mated by experts that this brings the
world stock of gold up nearly TO So
Vb,OO0OOo or an average of about $3.50 for
each individual inhabitant of the earth s
surface Thirty years ago IL was es-
timated that the worlds stock of gold
was in the neighborhood OF 81. 500 COO DO
Only about one-fifth of the gold mined
ls used in jeweiry and the arts. the re-
inainder going into tise coinage of the
nations of the world. In the United
States Colorado ranked first in gold pro-
duction last year, with California sec
ond, and Alaska third. One effect al
ready noted by careful observers of this
rising tide of gold is the gradual de-
probation of the value of the currency
and a consequent general rise in price
levels. In other words, powerful nat
ural arguments for the quantity theory
of money are being brought TO bear

The Advent of Spring.

Spring. of which the poets sing,
has come at last Officially, it was
about ten days late. but after the
weather of the last week it is more
welcome than if il had arrived on
schedule time. The question now is,
How long will it stay?
Some trouble-seeker, who has made
a careful study of many editions of the
infallible almanac. INDUCES in terri
bic prognostications for the month of
April There are to be cyclones, tor
nadoes, billiards, intense cold, and,
mayhap, ray of sunshine occasion
ally If one were to brood over such
predictions, he might become despond-
ent. The best plan is to be pre-
pared for the worst, and then dis
appointment is certain-and pleasant
disappointment.
The weather in Washington some
times has had a habit OF jumping
from winter right into early summer
Nevertheless, from this time on to
June, the climate in this locality is
certain to be, with but little excep-
ton, what people travel far to find
Washington in late spring and early
summer is a garden spot.

Money and the Mountains.

The effort to save the magnificent
forests of the White Mountains seems,
to have taken very practical turn
all at once. While the bill proposing
a national park in New Hampshire.
and now before Congress, is by no
means TO be abandoned, it is seen
that there is no reasonable prospect
OF its passage this year: meantime
the lumberman will soon be at work.
so some sort of quick action is
needed. The one practical way TO
take it is TO raise money, and that
the association interested is already
doing. Says Edward Everett Hale,
one of the most active members:
The different commissions which
nave tie matter i'm hand have agreed
mat generous subscription i'm New
England Of people who for whatever
reason wish to have the forests pre-
served rs very desirable
meet with a great many persons
VINO would gladly invest $1,000 or
many thousand dollars In forest prop
erty and take their chances of earning
> per cent on their money if these for
ests are carried on under the principles
Iald down by the National Forestry
Bureau Here is a chance for such an
investment.
The friends of the investment are
not thinking of contribution box of
nickelS and ten cent pieces: they sup
pose that a sufficient subscription
may be made to give strength 10 the
hands of people who want TO save this
tract or that from the pulp makers
1t is not going to be any child's
play of finance to rescue the noble
woods Of the Presidential range from
the AK. A rich and powerful corpora
tion has now control of most of the
region, and its business is to go into
numbering, not TO deal in sentiment
or to furnish good bargains in land
for fund-raisers. As DR.. Hale says
truly no mites are wanted for this
purpose; good, robust sums of money
are indispensable if any real effect
is TO be made.
