SAVE TIMBER TREES,
THEY ARE VALUABLE
How Thoughtlessness and Wan.
ton Waste CharacteriZes
Clearing Land for Use.-

The high price of all timber and
timber lands is sufficient reason
for all persons who have good
trees or well timbered tracts of
land, to go slow in disposing
of the same. Only few years
ago, when II man wanted to open
up a farm he killed all the trees
on the land and burned the trunks
of the trees up in great log heaps.
In this way great and valuable
forests have been destroyed. The
coming of railroads, the erecting
large saw mills and the high prices
of mill products, enables the man
who owns land with trees on it, to
sell the trees standing on the land
for more money than the land is
worth when converted into a farm.
Timber men are securing this
country, hunting timber. The
Democrat warns every mai. who
has timbered land or even few
good trees, white oak, elm. cotton
wood, hickory or trees of any kind
that can be converted into lumber,
not to part with any that he has
without its value. We know of
a sale of trees, white oak trees.
made by Mr.. A. X. Watt near
Bonita, at the following prices:
Three choice white oak trees, $50
for three trees and forty-two white
oak trees for $500. All timber
that can, without too much cost
be got to a railroad, has a value
greater than any man ever
thought of before the railroads
came into this parish.-Mer
Rouge Democrat.
1t has often been a matter of
wonder that farmers who live
contiguous to railroads will dead
en- valuable trees in order to clear
land. Such destruction IS fire.
qnent. Thousands of dollars
worth of pine and hardwood are
thus annually wasted. We have
seen giant oaks, the growth of
century, whose outstretched
branches were fcstooned with
waving gray moss, these forests
prinaeval ruthlessly slaughtered.
Yet the country is filed with
men who are seeking just that
species of timber. which is inval-
liable for manufacturing purposes
and would gladly purchase it
standing. Do not kill the timber.
Every foot of it has value. Seek
out the dealers and dispose of il.
Thus secure some compensation
for it and save time and labor and
annoyance in getting rid of it.
Timber has become too valuable
to deaden it or burn it up as a log
heap. These ideas are worthy
consideration.
The Mississippi primary for
governor has resulted in the
nomination of Hon. K. 4. Noel
over Hon. Earl Brewster. Mr.
Noel is described as "dignified,
able, conservative and experi5
enced statesman"

MUST SEEK NEW PLACE.
Boys Can't Go Swimming or KonoId's
Dock Any More.

Boys and young men living in the
vicinity Of Ferry and Chapel streets
no longer have any place near home
where they can go swimming. The
end came teh other night when two Of
ficers, one who was on duty, and who
wore a uniform, and another who 1t is
thought came around because he felt so
inclined, appeared at Konold's dock
and ordered the swimmers to go and
not return.
Officer Nettleton, who is regularly on
duty in that section at the present time,
came down to the dock and spoke to
the boys, telling them that several
complaints had been made, and that
they would have to refrain from going
in swimming there for the present time.
At that the boys started to dress,
The other officer, who was in citi'
zen's clothes, came along and although
he saw that Officer Nettleton had ex-
planned the circumstances to the boys
said: Come on, get out Of here or II
throw your clothes overheard"
Several were standing, getting dried
at the time, and di not say anything
nor dkid they move. The officer then
said that he would take their clothes
up to the station if they did not hurry
After they had partly dried themselves

STOCK MARKET REVIEW.
Acute Weakness in steel Affects Entir,
Atmosphere Of the street.

atmosphere oil Inc street,
New York, July 17APrices Of stocks
were alternately up and down to-day
and the movement became feverish late
in the day with the quick transition
from rising to falling tendency. Deal
ings were not on an important scale
outside of a few issues. Union Pacific
was the prominent influence on the part
Of the advance and United States Steel
on the side of decline, the weakness of
the latter Overwhelming the late mark
ct.
The demand for Union Pacific was
persistent and determined and that
stock was generally regarded as the
center of organized operations to sup
port the market or to advance prices.
United States Steel was consistently
heavy throughout the day. It's weak
ness was directly traceable to the re-
port that orders were falling off and
would show, for July a decrease from
the showing for July of last year.
The wide decline in the price of cop
per- after being long arbitrarily held at
about % cents, is an example that feeds
anxiety over the iron situation, and the
fact that most other metal markets are
declining is an additional factor. The
copper stocks were weak in company
with United States Steel to-day, in
spite of violent rebound in the price
of copper warrants in London.
There was little change in the money
market, although foreign exchange rose
again. Mondays payment, $14OOOOO0
on account of Union Pacific convertible
bonds and Wednesdays of $4,000 OO(
for American Telephone stock are re.
quirements to be met in the early flu
ture.
The June foreign trade statement in.
dicates heavy increase in manufac-
turers exports for that month compar.
ed with June of last year, which is suf.
ficient to more than offset the heavy
! growth in value of imports for the same
period. The acute weakness in United
States Steel made the closing weak ant
disorderly at sharp losses.
Bonds were irregular. Total sales pal
value, $3.50, 900.
United states bonds were unchanged
on call.

PROGRESS Ar- NEwCnwANG.

PROGRESS AT NEWCTWANG.
 Chinese authorities are making good progress, says Daily Consular and Trade Reports, in establishing prop CT drainage system throughout the Chinese. city at Newchwang. Owing to strict sanitary rules the port has been free of epidemic diseases this year. The International Debating So- ciety at Newohwang, started two years ago by the Rev. James Webster, has for its object the promotion of friendly relations between foreigners and Chinese and is largely supported by subscriptions from the native off cials and merchants. Addresses on Chinese and foreign affairs are given daily in the Huo Shen Mao, or tenn pie of the god of fire and the principal Chinese newspapers are explained to several hundred people by experienced Chinese lecturers, while special lec- lures are given from time to time in the Chinese theaters. Constitutional Government" has been the topic for several months, studied with intense interest on the part of the students. rSc institution carries with it no re- ligious obligations and. the lectures and debates are open to all.
 Newchwang is buying its bean oil mill machinery (there are five large mills there) in Hongkong. A Japanese syndicate is building another mill in the same line Successful demonstra- ton has been made by a steam plough manufactured in Bedford, England. Its capability is twenty acres in twelve hours. The river waterway is to be improved by the construction of a dam seventy-hve miles north, at cost of $3O,0G0 gold.
