San Francisco, March CID w.
Stevens, diplomatic advisor to the Ko-
rean counsel of state, was an arrival
yesterday On the Nippon Maru, return
ing on leave of absence after a SER
vice OF several years in Japan and
Corea.
Stevens says the Korean people
have been greatly benefited by Jap
anese protection and that they are be-
ginning to look more favorably on it.
He says the Japanese are doing for
the Koreans what America is doing
for the Philippines. Continuing, he
said: You can get some idea of the
condition Of Korea before the war
from the statement that the govern
ment was spending three million ven
annually on a standing army and so,
600 yen on public education. The peo-
pie are divided into two clauses, the
peasantry and the official classes. The
former were ground down until moth
ing but bare existence was left from
their labor. while the official class was
thoroughly corrupt.
The peasants have welcomed the
Japanese. while the official class has
not, but even the officials are begin.

country lies in a reorganization of

WIZARD OF THE CUE ACCEPTS

SUTTON FOR 1871 sALk LINE
CHAMPIONSHIP OF THE WORLD
b. AssoeI.ted Press.

New York, March 21.-Within six
weeks a match for the worlds cham
plonship at ISL balk line is likely to
be played in this city. Jacob Shaeffer
who holds the title, has covered the
forfeit Of $3.50 deposited by George
Sutton in support of his challenge to
the winner of the Shaeffer-Hoppe
match, which took place in Chicago
on March IL. Shaeffer had announ-
ced his intention Of retiring from the
held because of his poor health, burt
numerous protests from his friends
who urged him not to quit the game
in which he had been an important
factor for more than 80 years, have
had their effect and the preliminary
arrangements for the match have
been made. Schaffer has defended
the trophy successfully three times
in the last year. Sutton has held the
ISL emblem twice securing it both
times by forfeit.

Perry is the prosperous county seat
Of Taylor county in this state and the
growth OF the town during the past
two or three years has been almost
phenomenal; but Perry will cease to
be a drawing card for citizens OF a
desirable class who believe in law
and order unless she checks the
lynching spirit among her lawless ele-
ment. Taking unconvicted persons
from the Jail, tieing them to stakes
and shooting them to death, as was
done in Perry the other day by a
mob that didn't even take the trouble
to AFFECT disguise, doesn't help to ad-
Yertise the town as a good place in
which to invest money, establish
homes and raise families. In this
double lynching the excuse of crimi-
nal assault on woman was lacking
the charge was murder.

man Hobson, of Alabama. But for all
that there isn't an honester man in
congress, and while he is an enthus-

high sense of honor and duty has
been conspicuously displayed recent
ly in his public exposure of the effort
to bribe him by the promise of a

would lend his influence in favor of

his fads and his enthusiasms, but he

NEW ZEALAND s
HUGE FORESTS
TREES FROM UNITED STATES
EUROPE, AND AUSTRALIA ARE
BEING PLANTED TO REPLACE
THE NATIVE HUGE TIMBER or
THE COUNTRY.

Trees from the United States.
Europe, and Australia are being sys-
tematically introduced into the ma
tive forests of New Zealand. In the
climate of that country trees from
almost anywhere will thrive. and
this fact is taken advantage Of to
plant the most profitable species.
Eleven million larches, oaks, spruces,
Douglas frs and Eucalypts have been
set in plantations, and vast numbers
of seedlings are coming on in nur.
series. These are rapidly growing
species which also make excellent
timber
The reason given for introducing
foreign trees is that the native trees
OF New Zealand are too slow in
growth. Some Of them, as the kauTl
pine, grow 70 gigantic size and pro
duce excellent timber. but it takes
from 200 years up to do so. Success
full forestry demands quicker returns
More rapid changes in animal and
vegetable life are taking place in
New Zealand than almost anywhere
else in the world. The native Poly
nesian race is rapidly disappearing
before the European. The wild AMI
mails, native to the islands, amount
to little in the contest with animals
brought in, many Of which now run
wild The streams are full OF Amer
can and European trout, which grow
to enormous size. The very forests
are to be replaced, tree by tree. by
planting foreign specis as the native
woods disappear.
New Zealand has one million two
hundred thousand acres of forest,
with two hundred kinds of trees. II
is estimated that the native forests
will last, at the present rate Of CUT
ting, for seventy years. The replace
ment will therefore be gradual But
in the end, if the imported trees prove
to be more valuable economically
than the native ones, they will make
up the future forests of the country.
Forestry was taken up in New Yea
land over thirty years ago. but was
abandoned after few years. The
reason given for dropping il was that
it cost more than 1t was worth. AZ
ter several years of exploitation. It
was generally conceded that the
abandonment of forestry by the gov
eminent was a serious mistake, and II
was taken up again with renewed en-
ergy. Nurseries and plantations arc
