this Act, or to in any way impair the legal rights of any bona fide homestead settler who has or shall establish residence upon pu b l ic lands prior to their inclusion with in forest reserve.
 The following information has been received in regard to the above bill:
 1. That the Secretary of Agri- culture may use his discretion about examining and listing lands under the proposed law.
 2. Only lands chiefly valuable for agriculture and not needed for administrative purposes by the Forest Service or for some other public use will be classified and listed under this bill.
 3. Land covered with merchan- table growth of timber will not de beclared agricultural, excetp upon the strongest evidence of its value for agricultural purposes, both as to production and accessibility to market.
 4. Areas known to have been oc- cupied by actual settlers prior to January l, 1906, will be examnied first, and when such areas are found chiefly Va u a b e for agriculture they will be listed, in order that the occupants may make entry un der the Act. The mere fact that man has settled upon the land will, however, not influence the decision with respect to its agricultural character.
 5. Any one who was bona fide settler on land within a forest re- serve before January l, 1906, but who has already exercised or lost his homestead privilege, may, if otherwise qualified, make home stead entry under the provision of the proposed law. but must pay $2.50 per acre for any lands entered.
 6. The first preference right to enter lands classified and listed un- der the Act will be given to ger sons who settled upon such lands prior to January l, 1906. The sec ond preference right to enter any particular listed tract will be given to persons who apply to have the classification made, but this latter class should not apply for the clas- sification of tract occupied by a settler before that date; otherwise they might lose their preference rights.
 7. Supervisors are often absent from their headquarters, and so can not be reached at all times with equal certainty by all applicants. | To avoid any undue advantage of one applicant over an other due to this cause, all applications under this Act must be forwarded by mail to the Forester, Washington, D. c.

Greatest Cold Vet Known.

In the northern hemisphere the
greatest cold seems to have been OBJ
served at Werchojansk, in Siberia,
where it is stated that the thermome-
ter goes down as low as SO degrees
below zero.
However, according to the informa-
ton which has been brought by the
Russian artist Borrissoff, certain parts
of Nova Zembla seem to show at least
as low a temperature as the above.
The bulletin of the Societe Astronom-
ioue states that in an excursion which
M. Borrissoff made lately in the strait
of Matotchkin he discovered a box
containing two thermometers, one a
maximum and the other a minimum
recording thermometer. 1t is sup
posed that these Instruments belonged
to Hofer, an Austrian geologist. who
made an expedition to this spot il
1872.
One of the thermometers was founC
to have registered the temperature a
+59 degrees as a maximum, while th'
second instrument showed that tn,
greatest cold had been "a degrees be

ROOT OF ALL HUMAN SUCCESS
Struggle of the Race to Get Away
from Poverty.

The struggle to get away from pow

there been no necessity put upon him
to workAthe race would still be in
it's infancy. Civilization 1--WE more
to the perpetual struggle Of man to
get away from poverty than to any
thing else. 1t is not poverty itself,
but the effort to get away from it,
that makes the man. We are so con-
stituted that we make our greatest
efforts and do our best work while
struggling to attain that which the
heart longs for. Power is the result
of force overcome. The giant is made
strong in wrestling with difficulties.
1t is impossible for one who does not
have to struggle and to fight obstacles
to develop fiber or stamina. ITO live
without trial is to die but half a man"

merce of the Great Lakes, as it moved
majestically up, and down Lake HUI

a love for the lake region to which
he still clings with a marked fondness

native state equipped him for the vo-
cation Of teacher, which profession he
followed for five years. He then en-
tered the University Of Michigan at

timony of his skill and fidelity. In

elected, holding it continuously until
