Pickering, Of this city. is the proud
owner OF a dog which spent 20 days
inside an abandoned cistern near the
Farragut house at Rye Beach.
A short time ago his owner placed
him in care Of man near the summer
hotel, where he only made trouble for
his owner and keeper. Suddenly Spot
disappeared.
No amount Of searching or whisting
could bring his dogship back TO his
keeper. Spot was given up as dead
and the only relic Of the Doctors pet
was his license record at the city hall.
After mourning Spot among the
missing for 20 days, the man who had
had him IN charge met two men near
the Farragut house.

case. IS the very spot where ! last

The examination at Sulphur Springs
was typical OF its class. It was in
charge Of G. E. Clement technical
assistant on the Pixies Peak forest re-
serve, one OF the largest reserves in
the country. The Is applicants who
lined up for work we're typical west
ern youths
The first day OF the examination
was given to "schoolhouse work" and
It is likely that this caused more gray
hairs to sprout than anything suggest
ed by the forestry expert in the sue
ceeding two days.
The second day the applicants
brought out their saddle horses. and,
at an early hour, started on the trail.
After proceeding FIVE or six miles IN
the mountains axes were given the
candidates, and they we're told TO
show their skill in cutting and seal
ing timber.
After all the candidates had been
examined as to their fitness with the
ak they we're given work IN following
blind trails and reading trail signs
on the third day the field tests were
continued. A brisk ride was made to
a water course, where camp was
pltched and notes made Of the man

make fires and prepare a temporary
resting place. In order to test the
accuracy Of the men in Judging dis
tances. the forestry expert rode over

men 10 pace Il. Indian fle. The candi-
dates we're then required 10 reduce
their estimates 20 feet, and then the
expert went over the course with a
surveyors tape anc compared the re-
suit with the estimates made by the
candidates. This is an important part
Of the work. as a forest ranger is
often required 10 estimate distances,
with no facilities but eye or stride.
One Of the most important tests
was that Of packing. A small pack
animal was brought out IN front OF
the hotel. and each candidate was
told 20 20 ahead and show what he
could do IN the way Of putting
load on the horses back.

cessfully passes the examination for
the position Of forest ranger, for that
the ordeal through which the bronzed
and hardy young fellows have to pass
in order to prove their fitness for the
work is testing OF the most search
ing kind those who have experienced
it are able to testify.
Uncle Sam is eager to recruit his
army Of forest rangers TO its complete
strength, and he is determined TO
have only the hardest and most fear
less riders, the best shots. the quick
est and most accurate lumbermen. and
withal the most trustworthy young
men he can find in the western coun-
try 10 guard the big forest reserves
that have been and are being set
aside in so many Of the western
states. With this end in view he
has established recruiting stations at
Sulphur Springs and other points in
Colorado as well as other states. and
the forestry experts are at the pres
ent time busy examining and testing
the recruits 70 prove their fitness TO
do the hard work required OF them.
This is work in which no weakling
dare seek TO enlist. for the most i'm
portant part Of the examination is
the field work. and a three-days
plunge into the timber soon tests
mans nerve and abilities and shows
what kind Of stuff he is made Of

must have a fair education, but the
man who IS a little short on book
learning and away ahead Of others in
throwing the diamond hitch in pack

trail Is the man who will have the
call with the civil service commission
when final judgment is rendered.
With view to securing the best
results in the field examinations, the
government sends its best grounded
forestry experts TO take charge Of the
work OF putting the recruits through
their PAGES. The examinations are
advertised for weeks before they are
held and as a result they attract

and prairie settlements-men who re-

All friends of China. and in parttcuIar r those interested in womens education Will be pleased to learn that since his return from abroad the newly an pointed governor general of Nanhing Tuan-F Fang, has devoted his attention to female education. He aroused in the capital the interest of the hsue-pin (ministry of education) for the sub- iect, and the latter has decreed the immediate establishment of girls schools throughout the empire. Yuan Fang Is of the opinion that the grad uates of the girls school and teachers seminaries could very well undertake the direction of elementary schools and klndergartens, and. what Is more Important still that owing to the con stantly growing number of educated women the children will have the great advantage Of being instructed at home by their mothers. As an evidence of the interest now manifested in this subject in tho North of China a Tientsin paper announces the opening of new school for girls in the French settlement. Tn this school. besides other modern sub iects, the Frence, English and Japanese languages are to be taught. The school has 200 pupils and thirteen teachers.
