The hattleship fleet left Manila on

of one case of smallpox on the
Georgia, which detached herself
from the fleet on Dec. and arrived

To Prevent Forest Fires.

The frequency and seriousness of for
est fires during the past autumn prove
that the present laws for the protection
of the forests are inadequate. We are
of the opinion that negligence or in
excusable carelessness is responsible for
the majority Of the fires, not merely in
the Adirondack regions, but also in the
fire-swept districts of Minnesota, Mich
igan, and Wisconsin. If this careless
ness be measured by the magnitude of
the disasters of which it is the original
cause, it takes on surely strong flavor
of criminality. For it is no excuse to
say that the hunter who fails to extin-
guish his campfire, or the settler who
leaves the edge of his clearing burning
through the night in proximity to in
fiammable forest timber, does so with
out any thought of the loss of life or
property which may result from his
careessness; for he is well aware of the
fact that such smouldering fires may,
and do, start great CONGREGATIONS, and
that in these CONGREGATIONS it frequently
happens that not one but many human
lives are sacrificed. If such carelessness
in the presence of this knowledge be not
criminal, new definition must be found
for this last last-named word.
Our attention has recently been drawn
to the fact that in Canada there is a
strong movement on foot, urging the
government to follow a more definite
course of action in the protection of the
forests, and to make the breach of the
forest protection laws punishable by inn
prisonment, without the option of any
fine. Tn, object aimed at by the sug-
gested legislation is, not merely to in
crease the number and enlarge the
powers of the forest wardens. but also tC
compel every camper to either eXtin
gush his fire or keep it under guard
to require every settler, railway contrac
tor, or railway, in clearing lands tC
maintain guard by night as well as by
day, so long as the stumps are burning
and to prevent any stumps or under
DTuSH DtlUS HItu WltillIl ItdoOildDi'
distance of the standing timber; anC
finally, to make the railways and factor
les whose tracks or works are within the
forest area responsible for the protection
of the forest to given distance on eacl
side of the railway track or factory
We commend this subject to the at
tention of the legislatures in those States
most nearly affected. 1t is certain tina
legislation bringing the careless starting
and neglect of fires within the range o
the criminal law would prove mos
speedy and effective check upon the pre-
sent annual destruction of life and prop
erty Scientific American.

BADLY CRIPPLED WITH

Good News for Motorists.

The interests of automobiling, whether
for pleasure or in business, are decidedly
looking up in the State Of New Jersey,
where there has been probably as much
need of their improvement as anywhere
in all the world.
A man long notorious for his defiance
of law and decency and for his persistent
imperling of lives has been expelled
from the New Jersey Auto and Motor
Vehicle Club, the influence of his wealth
and the specious plea of his own self
caused infirmity no longer availing to
protect him from the penalty which he
deserved.
Another, after killing man with his
machine and then running away to avoid
recognition, has been detected, arrested
and committed without bail ON a charge
of manslaughter.
Some fault has been found with New
Jersey because of the alleged illiberality
of her highway laws, and it is said that
many Automobiles have formed preiu
dice against the state on that account
