NEW LIGHT SHOWN
 ON HANS EPISODE
The Identity Revealed of Hitherto Mysterious Witness.

New York, Aug. 27.-The name of
 the hitherto mysterious witness whd represented himself as ready to tes tify to having heard Annis boast of
 the conquest of Mrs. Peter c. Hains
 was revealed tonight after a colfer- ence between General P. c. Haias
 and the lawyers retained to defend 1 his two sons. P. c. Hains Jr.. and
 of Princeton, N. J.
 The general made public the fol- | lowing letter written to him by Cur
 tis, August IS, from Princeton:
 -Allow me to offer you and your
 family my best sympathy and in all | of your trouble I offer all the assis- tance in my power. Apropos of this letter I beg to say l heard Annis making boasts of his relations with your sons wife, on two occasions in clubs in New York. and once on a yacht near New York. Kindly keep all I have written from all except from your attorneys and family. as dislike notoriety. However, if it be- comes necessary, l will, of course testify to all the pertinent facts in your sons defense. I hope, however, this will not be necessary" The general made public the fact
 that two colored maids whom Mrs. Hains had in her employ during her husbands absence in the Philippines, will be called as witnesses for the defense.
 The correspondence between the general and Curtis eliminated in an interview at the Hotel Martinique. at which Curtis identified himself as the lawyer and former officer of vol unteers, descended from a military family.

MAGAZINE CHANGES TITLE
American Forestry Association Organ
 To Be Known as "Conservation"

Announcement is made by the American Forestry Association. Wash lington. D. C., that with the Septem- Der issue of the Associations monthly magazine it's title will be changed The magazine has heretofore appear ed under the title of Forestry and IT, rigation The Associations announce ment says:
 For some time it has seemed to those in charge of affairs hat tho title Forestry and Irrigation does not fully cover the ground; that the magazine, as well as the Association, stands for more than these two fea- lures of the broad plan of national conservation of natural resources. Forestry and irrigation are two vital points in the conservation program, but they are not the only points by any means. The broader idea of con servation embraces forestry and irri- gation, soil conservation, waterways and water power extension, conser- walton of mineral resources, and the various collateral branches of these general subjects.
 For this reason it has been decid- ed to change the title of the maga- zine, which. with the September issue with appear under the name, Con servation, with the explanatory sub title, Woods and Waters; Soils and Ores"
 The Association announces that many Improvements are to be made in the magazine. and that under it's new title it will be more nearly in line with the program of national conservation of natural resources which was so actively inaugurated at the conference of the governors with the president at the White House last May.
 There will be no change in the publication date of the magazine, which will be issued as heretofore on the first of each month. The maga- zine remains, of course, the property and under the full control of The American Forestry Association, the publication office being in Washing ton, D. C.

Ants Eat Sandalwood.

Out in Burma and the Far East where sandalwOOd is worth its weight in silver. the pestiferous ant is a valu- able assistant to the loggers of that ereciOus timber. The hard and fra grant heartwood alone has value. but as the tree grows this valuable heart is overlaid by a soft and worthless lay CT forming two thirds of the trunk When a tree is felled and cut into lengths the lOggers let the timber lie At once the ants begin work upon the soft wood, which is sappy and sweet enough to attract them. In a few weeks, less than a month in the case of the largest butts, the ants deliver the heartwood free of all the worthless sapwood.

A SMALL EIRE-

A SMALL FlRE.-A small fire oc- cured late Wednesday night on South Seventh avenue in q store run by Chinaman named Sing, the orig in of which was a mystery till yes terday morning when Marshal Moore made an investigation. It was found that hole had been cut in the wire screen Cf a window large enough to admit a bottle. Coal oil had been poured or the sill and some of it run down inside on the floor. The presence of many burned matches showed the efforts that had been made to start fire. The first flames were discovered by a child and Sing was warned in time to put out the blaze with q few buckets of water. The Chinaman is exceedingly uneasy as he can not decide who his enemy is, whether a member of the higl binders is on his trail, or if T tons war is in its incipiency.
