competent to judge of its merits. The
proposed plan has some good features.
but it would be chiefly of benefit to
the big mail order houses who would
be able to get their small packages
delivered at a much smaller cost than
at present. OF course every one else
would enjoy the same rate of postage,
but the average man does not need
such a service very often, while the
Dig mail order house has thousands of
such packages to go by express or

CORNER Stone laid
FOR new MASONIC TEMPLE
AT WASHINGTON, DC.
President Roosevelt, a Member of
Fraternity, Made Principal Address
He Used Working Tools in Lay
ing the Stone President Washington
Worked With.

Washington, June 9.-President
Roosevelt, as a member of the blue
lodge of the Masonic fraternity, made
an address at the laying of the corner
stone Saturday afternoon of the Ma
sonic temple, which is to be erected
here at Thirteenth street and New
York avenue. A large crowd was pres
ent, including many prominent Ma
sons. The gavel and trowel used were
the same as those used by President
Washington in laying the corner
stone of the United States capitol,
September IS, 1898, and the Bible was
used by Fredericksburg lodge No. 4
of Virginia when President Washing
ton became a member of the frater-
nifty.
The president spread some cement
under the cornerstone with the trowel,
afterward shaking the hands of the
mechanics experimenting the work
and later was handed the gavel and
also the Bible, which he examined
closely as he turned the pages of the
sacred book Deposited in the corner
stone are steel portraits of President
Washington and Roosevelt, facsimile
copies of the Declaration of Independ-
ence and the Constitution of the Unit
ed States, jamestown exposition
medals and a newspaper account of
the death of President Garfield.

gun was exposed and made several at
tempts to cover it up. Finally he ap-
preciated the humor of the situation
and joined in the laughter which fol-
lowed the exposure of the revolver.

OFFICERS PlouED AT WOOD
Ayres Makes Statement in West Point
Sensation

AyreS Makes Statement in West Point
Sensation
West Point, N Y, June 11.-Warn-
i1gs that his friendship for General
Leonard Wood would cost him his
commission in the United States army
have been received repeatedly by
Lieutenant Colonel Charles G. Ayres,
according to a statement which he
made recently. In defending his wife,
Mrs. Elizabeth Ayres, from criticism
by officers of the military academy
and supporting her suit to collect
100000 in damages from these Off
GERS, Lieutenant Colonel Ayres said
that he had been tried on many charg-
es and that he has been told many
times that part of the luminosity to-
ward him has been caused by his
friendship with General Wood. That
officer himself, Lieutenant Colonel
Ayres says, has for years warned him
frequently to be careful. The lieuten-
ant said that he regarded General
Wood as one of the ablest men in the
country and that he was one of the
few officers who went to General
Woods camp to congratulate him
when he was promoted from colonel
to brigadier general.
The controversy at West Point
first attracted public attention at the
Easter parade of the cadets, when
Lieutenant Colonel Robert L. Howsee.
commondant of the cadets, sent a ser
geant to take away the cadets over
coats, which they had loaned to girl
spectators during a shower. Officers
OF the academy blamed Mrs. Ayres
for some of the criticism of the COM
mandant's action and for some further
public notice taken of it. Mrs. Ayres,
who then lived on the government
reservation, resented this and she left
West Point to reside in Highland
Falls, nearby.

RESTORATION OF COAL LANDS.
Release Of Corporation Grip Means
Much to the People.

Release Of Corporation Grip Means
Much to the People.
1t is good news that the investiga-
ton of land frauds in the west Is In
duciiag some of the big operators to re
linquish their grip on valuable coal
, areas in Wyoming. Colorado and Utah.
says the New York American. A prop
osition has been made to the depart
ment of Justice at Washington to re-
store to the United States government
large, sections of these lands. The res
toration of this coveted mineral area
will mean much to the American PEG
pie.
The coal deposits Of this continent
are being exhausted rapidly. We con-
sumo nearly 100000 tons every day
Last year more than S5O,O0000O tons
of coal were taken from this country $
mines. The recognized authorities
have shown that in hundred years
the American people will practically
be without coal. The most sangulne
estimate sets forth that the Pennsylva-
MIA anthracite fields will be exhausted
In q little more than fifty years from
today.
What good coal will remain will be
In deposits at great depths. The cost of
mining it will make 1t the fuel exclu-
sively Of the rich The children of the
present generation Will face grave
crisis when the price of coal becomes
prohlbitive in this country.
And 1t is estimated that In 1860 the
United States will have population
OF 2OO, 100000.
Nor can the American people have
recourse to wood as fuel. We have
wantonly wasted our forests. The
whole northern region Of this country
from New England to the Rockies was
forest. Yesterday little vessel load
ed with lumber sailed up the Hudson
and was moored at One Hundred and
Twenty ninth street It had brought
its csrgo Of timber from Florida. The
northern wilderness of wood has van
ished.
1t is predicted by close students Of
forestry that within twenty years there
will remain no marketable timber east
Of the Rocky mountains. The cities
and valleys Of this country are begin
ming to reap in disastrous floods the
result Of the distraction of forests
along the watersheds. Last year we
exported S17,o0O,OOO worth Of sawed
and hewn timber and logs. The recent
foods in Pittsburg alone destroyed
property valued at from $25,OOO,OO0 to
S5OOOOOOO.
