Forestry and Fire.

From the Detroit Free Press.
Some reflections that were given
much publicity about the time the con-
gress of governors met last spring now
comes back to memory, hearing a
twisted look. We were all very virtu-
Gus just then. We had learned to our
surprise and horror that our progeni-
tors had been unpardonably reckless in
their dealings with the property they
should have left intact to us. We
scolded them vigorously because they
had cleaned off our forests until we
were within a quarter of a century of
national badness. The ghosts of those
pioneers must be holding their sides
when they look down on their success
sors In this supposedly inexhaustible
region of natural af1uence and behold
us figuring up our fire losses for this
summer. The bureau of forestry at
Washington estimates that the destruc-
ton in the forests so far would equal
the cost of a whole fleet of flrst-elass
battleships. That would probably
amount to more than 800, 900, 600. Eth
err our forefarthers were not as extrav-
agant as We have been calling them, or
we ourselves have not prof1ted by their
example, The offence is the more
grievous on our part since We realize
how easily our forests may be ex-
hausted. Our predecessors thought they
would last forever.

"Iapdogl" at onee cried the superstitious
hubby who made bee line to back the
horse that won the derby in 1926
The chance exclamation of the word
"Caraetaens'-a polite swear word in
some parts of the country-gave a Kent

Bessemer, September 26-tspeeial.)-The
main topic Of discussion on the streets
today has been the action of the city
council in the caucus of last night.
The greatest surprise of all was the
fact that J. B. Huston was defeated for
the assistant tax collectors place. This
can be readily appreciated when one
stops to- realize that Jim has been closely
associated with the politicians. business
men and the social set of Bessemer for
the last p years and for the past ten
years he has taken a prominent part in
everything political that has come up
before the pee pie and in every issue he
has worked hard and faithfully for the
side on which he lined up, fighting his
opponents open and above board and
through 1t all he has been an enthusiastic
democrat. Than him there is not more
popular man in Bessemer and that he
should be beaten in the caucus by a
man who though known to be a fine
character is almost a stranger politically
This caused considerable surprise
throughout the city

Loomis's Fate.

Morgan Robertson, in Success Magazine.
Charles Battell Loomis, the writer and
humorist, has as sorrowful a face as can
be found at funeral. He seldom smiles,
and then with a seeming effort that is
painful to behold. He was present last
winter at a theatre party given by Mark
Twain to all the Harper authors. After
the show the elder humorist greeted the
younger with a smile and handshake,
but the mournful visage of Loomis re-
manned unchanged.
We've met before Mr. Clemens he
said. IT attended your birthday dinner;
but l didn't suppose you'd remember my
face"
Remember your face?' responded

Celebrates Double Birthday.

The home of r. T. Jones at Brighton
was the scene today of a rather unique
birthday celebration.
His daughter, Zelma, is II years of age
today, and her grandmother, Mrs. Lu-
cinda Nicholas of Jonesboro, is 70 years
of age, and it has been custom for the
past II years for them to celebrate their
birthday together and although the date
has caught them far apart at times, they
have managed thus far to get together
and celebrate by having number of
their friends to dine with them.
When the party sat down to the dining
table which was heavily laden with good
things TO eat, many "reminiscences of the
past were discussed by members of the
party who had been present on previous
celebrations, and a most enjoyable day
was spent.
Miss Zelma is attending the Seminary
in Birmingham.
There were about Is relatives and
friends present many of whom brought
valuable gifts to both Miss Zelma and
Mrs. Nicholas.
