A BoYHOop DREAM REALIZED
Tropical Birds and Flowers the one
Luxury of a boston MIL
lionaire.

Dreaming when a poor boy, working for
a mere pittance, Of large estate where
flowers would grow IN profusion and num-
erless species Of the feathered kingdom
would fit from tree to tree, Seth Borden
of Fall River, now a rich man, has come
to realize his hearts desire. for today this
captain of industry possesses flower
garden said to one Of the finest in this
country and a private aviary which is the
most extensive in the east.
The birds and flowers came from all
parts Of the world, for in his love for them
Mr.. Borden has spared no effort and no
expense.
Only a few days ago seventy-four Of the
most valuable English songbrds arrived
In Boston consigned to Mr.. Borden's estate.
They occupied a saloon stateroom and were
paid tho utmost care and attention.
In short time they will join their voices
with the other numerous occupants of Mr..
Borden's aviary, where awaiting the new
comers are already over 400 German and
English canaries and many other songsters
of the air.
1t was in his boyhood years that Mr..
Borden first conceived the plan which has
cost him many thousands of dollars to
bring into life.
Mr.. Bordens estate is famed throughout
the land. Artists flock there to seek in
spiration, naturalists come to study birds
and flowers, gardeners haunt the grounds
for practical hints to be applied in laying
out other estates all come there to admire
and to enjoy the picturesqueness and the
beauty OF the gardens, and all join In

WHAT FORESTRY HAS DONE
Activities of Old World Nations Con-
trasted with American
WastefuIneAs,

The forest service has published a crcu-
lar entitled, What Forestry Has Done"
in which the forest work Of foreign coun-
tries is reviewed. 1.-THE chief lessons which
may be learned from the reports are that
forestry pays and the need of timely ac-
tion, since forest waste can be repaired
only at a great cost" Tho The circular
tells of the necessity for forestry work, and
that every step of the way toward wise
forest use the world over has been made
at the sharp spur of want, suffering and
loss" Speaking Of results In other coun-
tries, the circular says: Take the case of
Germany. Starting with forests which were
in as bad shape as many of our own which
have been recklessly cut over, It raised the
average yield OF wood an acre from 20
cubic feet in 1890 to Go cubic feet in 1904
During the same period of time It trebled
the proportion OF saw timber got from the
average cut, which means, in other words,
that through the practice of forestry the
timber lands OF Germany are of three times
better quality today than when no system
was used. And in fifty-four years 1t in
creased the money returns from an average
acre of forest sevenfold." The state forests
of France, which are small in comparison
with national forests of this country, yield
a net revenue of more than A,7C0,OO0, al
though the sum spent on each acre for
management is more than 100 times greater
than that spent on the forests OF the United
States. Among the interesting figures given
are these: France and Germany together
have a population of 10O,0OO,OO0 in round
numbers, against our probable s5,OOO,OO0 and
state forests of 14.5OO.OOO acres. against our
6OOOO,OO0 acres of national forests; but
France and Germany spend on theE forests
S11.0OO.OOO a year and get from them in net
returns $SO,OO0OOo a year. while the United
States spent on the national forests last
year n.4OO,OOO and secured net return Of
less than $4,000.

Great Northern Notes

The Great Northern steel gang has
been busy this week laying 90-pound
steel in the local Yards There is still
quite a stretch of track in the Newport
district that is to be supplied with the
heavy steel. When the work is COM
pleted the track between Troy, Idaho,
and Spokane will have been furnished
with new steel.
The fill at the Meadows east of town
is now being used by all trains. They
also run through the new rock cut at
the east end of the fill, thus obviating
the grades and curves in that locality.
Improvements of needed character
have been made in the vicinity of the
Great Northern depot this week.
Division Superintendent Bowen, of
the road, was in Newport Tuesday, look
ing after the construction work at this
point.
A through Burlington freight is now
run daily over, the Great Northern, COM
mencing few days ago. These trains
come from Billings. Mont, via the new
line from Great Falls. When the new
passenger service will begin has not
been announced.
That the Great Northern's Oriental
Limited, trains No. l and 2 will run
through to Chicago beginning next
spring, is the latest. The time will be
cut seven hours between Chicago and
Seattle.

in Newport on Wednesday morning and
left on the steamer lone to look over
the work at points north of town. The
sub-contracts will be let in few days
and the actual work. of construction
started. 1t is expected that about 500
men will be employed at an early date
and this number will be increased if the
weather is favorable for the work.
No team work will be attempted this
winter as the conditions are not right
for this class of work. The four steam
shovels and the rock workers can prose-
ecute their work as we'll in the winter
as during other seasons OF the year.
The contract for furnishing the piing
for the trestle across Ashenfelter bay
and at other points has been let to the
D. & h. Mill Co.. and that company Is
now engaged in getting out the material,
having established a logging camp last
week.
Coulter & Button have secured the
contract for supplying all of the bridge
timbers necessary for use in construc-
ton, and their mill at Lenora Mill be
started running earlyin the season on the
contract, as we'll as to saw timber for
their trade.
The trestle across Ashenfelter bay
will he huilt substantial enough to carry
the heaviest trains and will not be filled
in at present, as was the Great North
ern treste at the Meadows east of town.
There will be a large amount OF heavy
rock work to be done near Newport and
near Blueslide. The balance of the line
does not present any great difficulties in
the way of construction. The public
does not know whether it has been de-
cided to construct the road along the
river front through the Calispel valley,

ARRESTED FOR FORGERY
Newport Girl Taken to Spokane
to Face Charges
She Has Had Checkered Caree,

Mrs. Winifred Daniels, better known
in this vicinity as Winifred Moter, the
adopted daughter of Rev. R. G. Moter,
OF this city, was arrested by Officer Ben.
nett on last Saturday afternoon, at the
instance of the Spokane police depart
ment. She was taken to Spokane the
same day by the officer and incarcer-
ated in the city Jail.
The charge against the young woman
ls that OF forgery. 1t is alleged that she
had passed several checks on Spokane
merchants recently for various sums for
materials purchased, and received the
difference between the amount of the
purchase and the amount of the check
in cash. The check that caused her
undolng was one for the sum of $25 that
she attempted to pass on the Hoyt
flower store in Spokane. The clerk was
suspicious of the check and said that he
would telephone the Old National Bank,
on which the check was drawn, and
ascertain whether or not it was good.
This was not to the young woman's
liking and she attempted to get possess
sion of the check, which bore the sigma
ture of her husband, Amos G. Daniels.
The clerk refused to surrender the
check and the woman left the store.
Shortly after she sent messenger boy
to the store for the check. The boy
told the clerk and detectives, who had
been called, where he was to deliver the
check. The officers followed, but when
they reached the place the woman had
gone.
On Friday last she passed check for
$500 on millinery house in the Temple
Court building, and it was on this charge
that she was arrested. She had pur-
chased $50 worth of headgear at the
place and received the balance of the
face of the check in money
Rev. Moter, the foster parent of the
alleged forger, went to Spokane to see
her on Monday. He announces that he

or whether it will run back to rhe foot
hills in that section. This matter will
probably be made public within the the
next few days.
President Blackwell, of the railroad,
has gone to New York and Chicago on
business connected with the road and
on his return more details will be OBJ
tainable
The letting of the contract will stimu-
late the business interests of Newport
and vicinity, Thousands of dollars Will
be expended in this district for wages
and supplies Sawmills that have not
operated for a year will start up and
give employment to many men In the
mills and woods. Tie contracts Will be
let to the ranchers along the route and
this will allow them to dispose of their
stock. The purchasing department of
the road is now preparing specifications
for ties and these will be posted down
the river as soon as finished.
In addition to the number OF men ac-
tually engaged on construction work on
the line, it is estimated that nearly as
many more residents of this district
will receive employment on account of
the starting of this work. Ranchers,
mill men, loggers, lumberjacks, steam
boat men, railroaders and others en-
gagged in getting out supplies will all be
busy. This, in turn, will increase the
number OF men engaged in other lines
of work in the city and vicinity and will
consequently prove benefit to all.
Now let everybody get together and
pull for Newport. With the proper
efforts several mills or factories should
be landed here. now that we have as
good railroad connections as any town
in the northwest. Stop the hammer
noise and blow the bazoo, should be the
cry of all loyal residents.
