to be shot down after the general had
first eaten a good meal. They began 10
talk about it so excitedly that some
one reported the matter to General
Morgan. Walking from his tent. he
ordered the prisoners to be drawn up
in line. Then, mounting his horse. he
rode to the center of the small column
and said to them that they must be
acquainted with his methods of getting

These are busy days at the mint.
preston in the big government build
ing at Seventeenth and Spring Garden
streets. This activity in that magnif-
cent structure is due to the unusual
coinage OF gold. Since the panic. the
New York assay Office has sent over
$50. 10000 in gold bullion to the Phil
adelphia mint to be coined.
Since the first of the current year the
inflow OF the glittcring metal has been
so great that 1T forced the officials OF
the mint to add more than forty women
adjusters to that department. The
mint turns out more than $500, 900

more than $4,000 900 has been coined,
which exceeds the amount coined all

Work Will Begin.

Regarding the probability of Con-
gressional action on the Appalachian
Park bill, Governor Smith Of Geor-
gia. who recently returned hcme
from Washington where he with a
number of other leading men from
many sections of the country went
to appear before the committee
which has the measure in hand, had
this to say in a published interview:
81 know we have made a strong
showing from a purely argumentive
and business basis. believe that the
committee will take up the matter
with earnestness and I have strong
reason to hope that the present
Congress will start the work. 1t is
necessary. it is urgent, it is vital.
and it will be accomplished. The
people are becoming aroused over
the demand for the preservation of
a large part of their forests, and
are understanding the questions as
they have never understood them
before. There can be no doubt Of
the movement. "
It is most gratifying to know that
Governor Smith feels so encouraged
over the prospects of getting the
foresty measure through Congress.
Governor Smith was the chairman
of the committee that went to
Washington. He made one of the
three addresses delivered before the
committee of Congress.
