MUST USE MILL WASTE.
Inventors Should Save the Day for
 Wood Pulp

WASHINGTON, Oct. 29.-To insure pulp wood supply to meet adequately the future needs of the country seems one of the most important of the many forest problems of the United states. Statistics collected by government sx- pcrts, however. show that there arc possibilities in the field of invention for the relief of the drain on the country's remaining pulp wood forests by devising means of utilizing saw mill waste.
 II is estimated that there are 4k million cords of slabs destroyed ia refuse burners of the lumber mills of the country each year. The wood used for pulp last year amounted to approx. imatclv 1 million cords, about n quar. fer of which had to be imported. The mill waste estimate is based on re cent canvass of some of the larger mills of the country by the United States forest service, which establish cd the interesting fact that mills hay. ing m aggregate cut of 5.ii0 millios board feet had final waste of 1870. 900 cords of slabs after the best had been used for lath Assuming those mills ,o be representative, it is seen that there is still considerable waste ia forest products at the mill even after the earnest efforts of lumbermen dur. ing the last ten years to bring about a closer utilization of the whole tree
 These figures make it look as if American inventors, who are perform. ing wonderful feats in other fields, should get down to the considerations of methods to make these waste slabs available for the pulp makers Work along this line would also be likely to show the way for utilization of thous- ands of tons of sawdust which are now wasted each year.
 II K true that some utilization is being made of mill waste at present, but in most eases it k only tne larger and more modern plants that are even making any attempts in this line. Then. as ii is. the plants which use the waste slabs. after laths are made, often waste tho -awdust. and those which use the sawdust waste the slabs. Tho slab residue from the lumber cut of the country Is estimated to amount to about fl million cords. of whicn about million. with an average value of sl.i0 card, is sold for fuel. 3ia mil. lion burned by the mills for fuel, and iis millions sent to the refuse burn CTS. This last figure shows the enor- nous quantity of forest product that is pure waste.
 The iron furnace slag heaps havo been seized upon by the briekmaker, and the screening dump of the coal mines has become valuable source of raw material for the briquctte manu facturer Experts say that it may prove possible to make just as good use of the waste heaps of the lumber mills if slabs and sawdus, can bc con. verted into pulp.

SHOOTS FRIEND.
Deplorable Accident Takes Life of
 Member of Survey Corps.

YUMA. Oct. 2S.-Accidental death ss the way the coroner's jury reported on the death of young Buyard Hub hard, of Brawlsy, who was shot while hunting last Sunday on the Alamo River by his friend, K. Van Wagenen. The story of the shooting is short and was from only one witness, and he the one who neld the gun that fired the fatal shot. He was almost pros trste over the death of his friend.
 Three of the boys who had been working on the survey corps of the C.. ID. company, and who were the best of friends, started from Brawley last Sunday morning in A buck board. Two of them had guns while the other one stayed with the rig and team and was not armed. About eight miles from town the two having guns alighted and started into the river bottom for ducks aud it was only . few steps before one of them sank to his knees ia quickssud and called for help. The dead boy was not long in getting to his friend and took hold of tho muzzle esd of his gun in ordsr to aelp him out, aud he had hardly secured the hold before the gun was discharged and the poor fellow sank 10 his knees. The friend who was in tho sand asked if he was bit, but the boy only smiled and reached ts the point where tae shot entered.

KANGAROO NAVY.
Australia May Maintain It's Own
 Battleships.

LONDON, Oct. 2g.-The Lords of the Admiralty have at last given con sent that Australia shall have navy of her own, and wnile the Admiralty appeared reluctant in the matter, the rest of the government k dcvoutly thankful and fcrvently hopes that Canada, at least. may be inspired to follow Australians example. Wi.h Australia and Canada providing for their own defense, quite load would bc taken of the minds of those re. sponsibe for the naval policy of the empire.
 The idea of n colonial navy is abso- lutely unique, and the terms upon which Australia is to have one are of world wide interest. Control of tho Australia 1otilla is to rest with tho Australian commonwealth while it re- mains in Aust ralian waters. and whether it shall leave those waters ths commonwealth always will deciis. But officers and men will be subjse to the kings naval regulations ssi should the Australian fleet leave Aus tralian waters it will al once become subject 10 the command of the senior imperial officer.
 The naval world will now be inter osted in the class of vessels which Australia will build. The natural ss sumption might be that it would eos tent itself with purely coat -defsns, vessels, but down in Australia they are talking of fast cruiser. and battle ships of the Dresdnsught type The ambition of Australia for mod ern fighting craft is one upon whis. Great Britain might well look sskssse It might turn out 10 De an important step in the direction of complete AHs tralian independence. Aside from the sentimental bond. the only thing todd. | binding Australia Co the Empire s that the Empire relieves Austrsiiass of the need of providing for their ow. defense If the means of this defesss are to bs provided as part of the i'm perial policy, what is to prevent Aa. trslia, when she gets strong enough ts stand alone, from taking her plae.

TOM REED MINE
 HARASSED BY LITIGATION

KINGMAN, Oct. 2s.-Thc trial of the ease known as the Blue Ridge Tom Reed ease. was before the court sever. al days last week and resulted in the sustaining of the demurrer to the com plaint of the plaintifr on the grounds of lack of certainty in the complaint. Compliments were allowed thirty days to amend the complaint in this par. ticular, which would indicate the in. tontion of the court to try the ease on it's merits. Tho cause grew out of the sale of the Blue Ridge property un der execution and the subsequent talk ing over of the property by the Tom Reed company. of which latter compa ny the same board of directors arc in control. The suit is one that involves title to the Tom Reed and Ben Harri. son mines, the richest properties in the territory of Arizona. At present the mines are producing about s3.O00 daily with ten stamp mill. Judge Sales, Of Los Angeles, was leading counsel, and associated with him were r. F.. McClelland and Reese NJ. Ling. The cause promises ,o bc one of the hard. est fought legal battles in the history of Mohave county.
 James Carter was in two from his mines in the Tom Reed section of San Francisco district this week. He re. ports that he has shaft down over ninety feet on the mine and that drifts have been run of both ways on the vein. Splendid ore shows up in the vein at all points opened and he believes that he has one of the great properties of that section. Ii is thought that the mine will soon be taken over by n company and worked in large way.
 Tom Grant and !. T. Wallace have gone to the northern part of Graham county on prospecting trip. Many years ago MT. Wallace discovered q large vein of gold bearing ore on the headwaters of Black River and rcyis. tied the place 70 month or more ago. He believes hc has one of the best sh0wings for q big low grade proposl. ton in inc west and Mr Grant will make an examination Co see want there is in it

A Vexing Question.

What will be done with the present
historic old Statehouse and executive
building at Frankfort when the bust
ness of the State Government is trans
ferred to the handsome new Capitol is
a question that is being asked on all
sides, and is giving the members of the
Legislature as well as the people of
Frankfort much concern.
There was some talk of converting
the east wing, in which the various de-
partments of the State government
are now located, into a court house.
which Franklin county is in great need
of, the recent grand jury having con-
demned the present ramshacKle affair
which. docs duty as temple of justice.
. Now, however, new idea has been
advanced by prominent business men,
including DR.. h. E. Hume, Mayor of
Frankfort. Their object is to convert
the State buildings into a State Nor
NAL School, using the old pile which is
now used for the meetings of the Leg
islature, Court of Appeals chamber
and State Library for a law depart
ment. 1t is argued by the promoters
that a State law school with the ad-
vantages and surroundings that such
an institution would have would soon
become the equal of any in this
country

90 per cent. of the tobacco acreage has

Hayes Acted Within Rights.
Probably the British point OF view In

Of the games has not been better put
anywhere than In the following:
"A great deal mas been written as to
the beneficial effects of the Olympic

considerable doubt. The actions of the
American contingent viii scarcely serve
10 strengthen the good feeling existing
between them and the athletes of this
country. Nothing need be written as
to the successful protest OF Hayes
against DOrando in the Marathon race.
The Italian probably lost the prize
through the ili-iudged action OF the Of

might or might not have been able 10

TO decline TO take a chance of getting
the prize unless he could finish first for
it. but this was IA matter Of personal
feeling, and 40 one has a right to ques-
ton the action OF Hayes.
The final heat OF the 4O0-meter race

There seems 10 be a snesr at Hayes
