Good Return. From Public Forests.

The annual report of the forestry Commission of Minnesota brings out the fact that the American states have been extremely slow in going into the business of creating and maintaining. state forests although this is for va- able of enterprises for the state. Tho countries of Europe which maintain public forests get directly return Of from 2 to per cent on their invest ment from the forest products, be. sides affording the peorle a vast in direct beneft in health and pleasure in the maintainance of climatic equa- hiIitv and in the preservation of the flow of water in the streams.

 One day a fellow townsman heard this conversation between two Union guards Said one: Why don't you si- lence that old d---d Reb outthere? 'St- lence him, indeed" replied the other, they snatched him out of the pulpit for praying. and he continued to pray; we brought him hundreds of miles, and now we've starved him in prison for six months.

From there he was carried to St. Louis, where he was paroled and allowed to return home. At Corinth he was detained several days. He was there during the battle of Corirth | when Generals Price and Van Dorn | attacked the city.
 The room in which Dr. Mitchell was confined was riddled with bullets. In after years he often laughed. of how l he embraced the floor to escape the flying shot. He said the dust and filth | of the detention quarters was the most horrible experience of his arrest.
 Dr. Mitchell made the opening pray | CT at the first Confederate Convention held in Montgomery, at which MT Davis was made president of the Con federate States. He continued true tc the cause through the war in which he lost his only grown son.
 His arrest was affected by Col. John Harlan, in command of his regiment | of North Kentucky, then stationed al Florence. Ala. Col. Harlan is now ( judge of the Supreme Court of th' United States. He was defeated in tho race for governor of Kentucky, wher this blot on his military career wal published by his opponents. Hc wal afterwards made judge of the Guprem' Court.

THE LATE Gen. WHEELER

OF the late General Joseph Wheeler.
DIR. John w. Dinsmore. formerly on
the board of visitors to West Point,
says. in recalling his acquaintance and
friendship with that man of varied
career:
In 1893, / was appointed a visitor to
West Point. General Wheeler was a
member of the board. l took to him
from the first, and we became fast
friends Mckinley made him a gen.
eral in the army as he did F'itz-H Hugh
Lee and others. In my humble judg-
ment this was a mistake. 1t may
have been good politics. but it was bad
morals | was witness of very
painful scene in which these principle
were involved. It is the custom of the
board of visitors to West Point, as it
is of the board to Annapolis, of which
I was also once a member, to appoint
one of its members to give an address
to the cadet corps, especially to the
graduating class on the occasion of the
sra duatfon At West Point. in 1893.
Senator Cullom suggested to me that
il would be good thing to appoint

board. At the proper time I made the
nomination. We all sat round large
table. ten or twelve men, and the NOM
inatiOn was met with a strange sill
e1ce. After long silence, General Nc
Clurg, head of the great publishing
house of Chicago, and also a gallant
officer in the war, arose. The moment
was to him, as it was to US ALL very
trying He said, in substance: mo man
here more deeply appreciates the per-
Soual quantities of General Wheeler
than do, and no man more thoroughly
appreciates ms military genius; but a
the same time l must say that this
board can not appoint to speak to the
future officers of the army one who
having been educated here has done
Eis very best to destroy the country
and the government. Wheeler sat
by my side and bowed his head, saying
not one word. I hoped he would stand
up and decline the service, but he did
nothing, except sit still. For a time
nobody said anything. The silence be-
came oppressive Several appealed to
me, but l could do nothing as l had
nominated General Wheeler At last
somebody moved that Charles s Far
child, ex-Secretary of the Treasury, be
appointed to make the address. In
appointing men like Wheeler and F'itz-

Mckinley preferred men VINO had done

TESTS MADE
BY SHOREY
Oil in FulIerton's Cargo
Almost Up to
Standard.

| Acting FOR the agents, a test was
| made yesterday by Prof. Shorey of the
| oil delivered from the steamer Argyll
and the barkentine Fullerton, the sale
| of which in the Territory had not
been authorized by the Superintendent
of Public Works, the tests of his de-
partment showing a lower flash test
than the standard adopted by law for
oils sold here. The result of Prof
Shorey's work shows the oil from the
Fullerton to test 80 3-S degrees Fahren-
heit. only five-eights of a degree be-
low the required legal standard.
This oil is now stored in a separate
tank and will not be offered for sale
until enough of the gas contained has
passed off SO that the required test
can be obtained. The oil in question
is not a low grade oil, as has been
stated, but is a high grade oil, with
a low flash test according to the stand
ard set by the Superintendent of Public
Works. Answering the test below this
standard makes it more valuable for
many purposes than the oil complying
with the law, So much so that the
agent has already been approached
to sell part of the shipment by large
local consumer. The request will not
be complied with, however, as the
agents have no intention of disregard
ing the law. Oils answering to flash
test as low as 80 degrees are used on
the Southern Pacific railroad in pref
erence to heavier oils.
IT may be that this oil will be mixed
with other oil now in storage here
and the mixture made to comply with
the 100-degree flash test such as was
done some time ago with a cargo i'm |
ported for the other oil company.
Respecting the trouble over the car |
goes of the two oil boats, A. w. Van |
Valkenburg states that no further |
shipments of the kind will be sent here |
unless local consumers who require |
the grade are able to secure amend |
ments to the Territorial laws govern
ing the sale of oil on the islands The
oil answered the required tests on be- |
ing loaded at Port Hartford. although |
IL is we'll known that oil samples from
The same pipe, sometimes from the |
same sample subdivided, do not al
