AERONAUT FELL 300 FEET.
ESCAPED Death and His Airship Prone
Uses to he n Success.

Ormond. Fla Jan 22.--Charlcs Hamil-
ton, an aeronaut, dropped 300 feet with
his airship yesterday and escaped fatal
injuries by very narrow margin Hami-
ton, when his airship dropped, was pitcn-
cd forward upon the board walk. He
struck heavily and lost console iiHcss
Later it was found no bones We're broken.
Although Hamilton was in the air not
more than three minutes. his flight was
regarded as a good deal of Il success,
The collapse was d1e to the insufficient
mower of an automobile used to do the
tov.ing. The combined weight of aero
nlane. man and 500 feet of rope was suf-
6cient to cause the car to slip backward
,,iehtlv when the chauffeur tried to in
crease his speed.
The acroplanc rose like bird with
the first pul. and in n fcw seconds was
900 feet in the air. When the speed of
tbo tow began to lessen the airship be-
gan to wabble like II kite ON stringc
nnd Hamilton by mistake dropped his
can. which was to have been the sig
nal to the tow driver to stop.
The acroplane at once began to tiuttor
downward with increasing speed until
the rope caught on top of II ilagpolo.
Then corner of the machine struck
the bath house piazza roof and wedGed
between the building and the tagpolc
and Hamilton was thrown out.

INCREASE OF VICE-CAUSE AND
EFFECT.

The report of commitments to the
State House Of Correction for the year
1906, and the figures showing the ire
mendous increase since 1892 in COM
nitments for intoxication, breaches of
the peace (nineteen out of every twen-
~ of which were doubtless due to
whiskey) and other misdemeanors
largely traceable to strong drink are
in line with the facts and figures here
tofore given in the police reports and
records of the county jails and poor
houses, all over the State. They show
that the results of licensing the sa-
looms and open bars have been what
were expected anG predicted, when the
state changed it's policy in regard to
the liquor traffic. Vastly more in
toxicating liquor has been consumed In
the State with the inevitable conse-
quence of great increase in drunk
enness, pauperism and crime,-over
crowded jails, over crowded House of
Correction, crowded poor houses,--and
heavy increase of the cost to the tax
payers of maintaining these insttu-
tions.
The evils resulting FROM freer rum
have been what was anticipated. How
about the benefits which the advocates
of license anticipated? Can any one
point to o branch of business, not con.
nected with the liquor traffic, that has
grown and prospered because of the
Increase in drinking, or OF the legis-
lation which makes it easy for drunk
ards to obtain liquor? Who is bene.
fitted when men spend over the bars
the wages which should go to the sup.
port of their families? These ant
other kindred questions must fore,
themselves on the minds of thinking
citizens nowadays.

THE FORESTRY SITUATION IN
VERMONT.

Yesterdays meeting of the Vermont
Forestry Association promises to mark
an important step toward the formula
tion of the ultimate forest policy of the
State The question of Vermont's per-
manent prosperity as a commonwealth is
most intimately bound up with her for
estry policy. More than half her
acreage is now given over to tree growth
tend to increase considerably in the next
quarter of a century There is appar-
emily no section of the United States
which eXcels our own in rapidly of the
natural growth of trees. We recently
learned from Charles f. Green, for years
the field superintendent of the Interna-
tional Paper CO.. that in his Judgment
as an expert lumbcrman the quality of
ash spruce and others of the valuable
native woods from the forests of the
Green Mountains is distinctly superior to
that from any other section of the coun-
try.
The future of Vermont as a State de-
ponds less upon the success of her great
local industries than upon the continued
prosperity and hearty development OF
the smaller villages. This in turn will
be fostered more surely by the wise care
and use of the local forest resources and
water powers than by any other variable
factor If this is admitted then the ques.
ton of what is the wlsest policy in fores,
management in Vermont must appeal tc
every public spirited citizen.
Some may argue that forest manage.
mcnt is simply business proposition anG
that those whose business it is will han,
die it satisfactorily without public con
Germ. A moments further thought shows
the fallacy of this idea. The peculiar
factor in the forestry problem is the tim,
element. The average lumbcrman see.
