refugees for game. Finally, the man
agement of the National Forests is de-
scribed.
Here it is that the great usefulness of
the forests is brought out most clearly
and strikingly; for the forests are man
aged by the people in their own inter-
ests, and every means is used to meet
the desires and wants of all forest users
half way by dealing with them in the
main directly on the ground and in all
cases with the utmost practicable dis
patch and freedom from red tape.
In a word, the special interest of this
manual lies in it's showing that the for
est policy of the government, both in
principle and in practice, is for the ben
eft of the ordinary man, for the benefit
of every citizen equally. There is still a
tendency to think of the National For
ests as preserve" closed to use, and
to leave the public lands exposed to un-
regulated individual exploitation Where
these misapprehensions still prevail The
Use of the National Forests will go far
to correct them
The book is written by Frederick E.
Olmsted, whose intimate knowledge of
conditions i'll the West and the policy
under which the National Forests are
managed especially fits INN to deal with
the subject.

SEVEN TROuCHS MINES
CLOSED AT PRESENT

All the mines of Seven Troughs have
closed down because of demand of the
local branch of the Western Federation
for an increase in wages from $3.50 to
$500 per day, and advices from the
camp are to the effect that mine owners
will not resume until the matter is adj
iusted satisfactorily. In fact, it is stated
that hereafter $500 will be the maxi
mum wages, and that if the Western
Federation members will not work for
the wages offered their places will be
filled by men who will.
Three weeks ago the Seven Troughs
union made demand for an increase of
81 90 per shift The men were then re-
ceiving $500 and g. so per day. The
demand was made that the increase go
into effect July 1st. The mine owners
refused and the men Withdrew their de-
mand The mine owners contend that
living is much less in Seven Troughs
than in any other camp, and that in
reality the men are better paid than the
miners of Goldfe1d. They refuse abso-
lutely to consider an advance of the
present scale.
One of the complaints made by the
delegation from the union is that the
food supply is not good. The mine
owners, it is said, were willing to estab-
lish commissary and furnish groceries
at cost and carriage.

HOW NATIONAL FORESTS
ARE SERVING THE PUBLIC

The Use of the National Forests, a
publication just printed by the Depart
ment of Agriculture, is a brief, clear
manual for public information as to the
forest policy of the national government.
1t is too true, as the short preface to
the public says, that many people do
not know what National Forests are.
Others may have heard much about
them, but have no idea of their true
purpose and use. : 1t is the object of
this publication to explain just what the
National Forests mean, what they are
for, and how to use them.
In the first place it is explained how
the forests are created and how their
boundaries are drawn Next. their di-
rect use and value are shown from the
point of view of the homeseeker, the
prospector and miner the uses of timber,
the uses of the ranger, the user of water
and other users of forest resources.
Third, it is shown how the forests are
intended for use, for the production of
disable products, and for the establish
on all of them the timber is protected
from fire, the water flow is kept steady
the forage on the range is increased and
guarded from abuse; and how, in addi-
ton, they serve as great public play
grounds and as breeding places and

suit Is the butt for a great deal Of
fun at the police station.
Tuesday night Brown saw two men
acting In what he supposed was sus-
picious manner on Temple street and
after watching them for time decided
to arrest them. He accosted them and
they submitted to q searching.
Brown brought to light two revolvers
and two blackjacks. He supposed he
had captured the two men who have
been guilty of so many holdups recent
ly and was greatly elated in conse-
quence. He continued the search and
at last brought to light two pairs Of
police handouts, and was still further
surprised when he found police badges
pinned on their suspenders.
The two men were Patrolmen May

DEAD MAN NOT
YET IDENTIFIED
No One Seems to Know Name of Vic-
tim of Heart FalIure-6ody
Still Awaits
Burial

Martin Siglie, proprietor of the saloon
at 639 East Third street, said yesterday
that the man who fell dead January Il
after asking for drink in a saloon near
Mr.. Siglie's place had not been in his
establishment, and denied that he or
any of his employees had heard of the
incident until he read in the morning
papers that a man had fallen dead after
securing several drinks.
The body was taken from the estab-
lishment of Eyraud & Mazet, a new
saloon at 700 East Third street. This
is located on the corner opposite Siglie's 8
place. According to the bartender
there, the man secured no drinks at
that place, although he asked for one
several times but was refused. He said
last night the man had entered that
place about O'clock. He had been
drinking. For this reason intoxicants
were refused him. A little later he
stood leaning against the bar and sud-
denly fell to the floor dead.
The police were notified and the
patrol wagon al. once went to the scene.
The body was taken to the receiving
hospital and little later removed to
the undertaking establishment of Pierce
Bros. 1t still remains there, and SO far
is unidentified.
The man was evidently about so years
of age. He was feet inches tall and
had blue eyes. sandy complexion and

DIED SUDDENLY
OF HEART DISEASE.

How frequently does head line SINH
lar to the above greet us In the news
papers. The rush, push and strenuous
ness of the American people has strong
tendency to lead up to valvular and other
affections Of the heart, attended by ir-
smothered sensations and other distress
ing symptoms.
Three of the prominent ingredients Of
which DR.. Pierce's Golden Medical Dis
covery Is made are recommended by some
Of the leading writers on MdtertG Medtcd
for the cure of just such cases. Golden
Seal root, for instance, is said by the
ard authority, "to impart tone and in
creased power to the hearts action"
Numerous other leading authorities rep
resent Golden Seal as an unsurpassed
tonic for the muscular system in general,
and as the heart is almost wholly com
posed OF muscular tissue, II naturally
follows that it must be greatly strength
ened by this superb, general tonic. But
probably the most important ingredient
Of ~Golden Medical Discovery" so far
as its marvellous cures of valvular and
other affections of the heart are con-
cerned. is Stone root. or ColltnsOniG Cam,

such cases. and in most instances effects

Stone root is also recommended by Drs.
Hale and Ellingwood, OF Chicago, for
valvular and other diseases OF the heart.
The latter says: "It is a heart tonic OF
direct and permanent influence"

WHILE MAN PRAYS
SHOTS ARE FIRED
STORY OFATTEMPTED MURDER
TOLD IN COURT
Aged Uncle of Prisoner Says He Was
Shot Four Times and Twice While
on His Knees Praying for
His Lie

Examination of William ]. Mckinley,
young man, on the charge of having
attempted to murder his uncle, Will
liam Reid, was commenced yesterday
before Justice Pierce In the township
court, but because of the absence of
witnesses the case was continued for
further hearing to February a.
The old man was assaulted at his
home just outside the city limits, west
of Pico Heights, on the night of De-
cember IA, and yesterday he told the
following story of the assault in court:
IL had gone to bed early and had
nearly gone to sleep when 1 heard a
knock at the door. arose and went to
the door and opened it, and my nephew
Mckinley entered. AS we had had
trouble because he wanted to get con-
troll of my property, l said nothing to
him, but started over to my bed, in
tending to go back to sleep.
II had taken about three steps when
my nephew fired at me with 22-cali-
ber revolver. One bullet entered on the
right side of my neck, the other on the
left, and 1 fell to the floor by my bed
and prayed.
TWO More Shots Fired
"Then he came over to me and as
he stood over me L prayed hard that
my life would be spared. He swung
me half around and fired twice in my
face, the bullets entering just below
my eyes and breaking through into my
mouth, and 1 spat them out as fell TO
the floor The small caliber of the
weapon probably saved my life.
MY nephew must have thought me
dead, for he walked out of the place,
leaving me on the floor. Two days
later | managed to crawl out to the
road and met a man there, who tele-
phoned for an officer. While the police
man was standing there getting the
facts of the case a buggy drove up
with a law and collection agent named
Williams, with whom 1 had also had
trouble. He was accompanied by my
nephew, and when / said That 1s the
man who shot me- the officer arrested
Mckinley and brought him to Los An
geles."
Mckinley was arrested twice before
on charges of having assaulted his
uncle. The first time 1t was alleged
he abused the old man and he was
warned by Justice Pierce to behave
himself. That warning held good for
a while. but a second time Mckinley
was arrested on the same charge. AT
that time he was placed under bonds
to keep the peace and the shooting oc-
Cured that night.
Reid is IA years of age and his
nephew is 40.
