 Thief.
 London. Oct. 2A-Lady Save and Sele was the victim of a daringly con- ceiveJ and cleverIy executed jewel robbery at Reading station few evenings since.
 When the train on which she was travelling from the north arrived at the station soon after 6 p. nn., she saw her two trunks. one of which con tained jeweiry and family heirlooms valued at several thousand pounds. safely removed from the luggage van to tine platform.
 She returned after only a few min utes' absence to find that both trunks had disappeared. At 8 D. m. woman was arrested at Reading. charged with the theft of the jewels, which, it is believed. have all been recovered
 It appears that immediately follow ing their disappearance the trunks were relabelled for Henley. and put into another train. The woman re- turned to Reacing and was promptly arrested.
 While the police have recovered. it Is believed all the 5ewels,s other prop erty contained in taesttrunks is still missing. .a1 ti,,'S,s

 The states should do much work Each should employ c trained forester. establish state reserves. and have a wise system of fire wardens. New York. Pennsylvania, Connecticut. Mas sachusetts. North Carolina and New Jersey now lead In the forestry work. Farmers should take better , care of woodlotss and fumbermen should, cut lands so as to be able to use them re peatedly.
 This country learned the habit of wastefulness years ago. but we have got to get out of that habit Every acre should be productive of some thing, If not needed for agriculture, then let the forests grow.
 grAiabama is, naturally gifted with wonderful forest resources.
 Her old growth timber Is now near ly exhausted. LumberTnen say fifteen the state was one of the leading states In manufacturing timber. II has now dropped to fifteenth place in this ih- dustry due to the rapid exhaustion of timber. ~.S
 Numbering in future must be on. a small scale. The state. has 20.ooooco acres of forest land. With care of the growing timber the state should always be able to supply the local de- mand for timber, The people must learn the value of old field pine and allow 1t to grow to valuable timber. Tn the future the woodlots of fifty or 100 acres will be very valuable to the owners.
 "In 1907 the Legislature passed some wise laws which mark the change In the attitude of the people toward forest preservation County game wardens are made fire wardens and penalties are provided against set ting fires on land not one's own. An exemption Of taxes. is permitted on denuded lands for ten years. when the owner has made provision for plant ing or otherwise grow trees of suit able quality and kind.
 "A Commission of Forestry has been established to have charge of all forestry matters in the state These provisions are to be commended and the people of the state have made a long step in advance during the past year.
 Every citizen should endeavor to practice forestry on land not needed for agriculture, should stop burning ground to improve grazing and should carefully provide for raising the trees needed on his place for fenceposts. timber and fuel. A farm without a woodlot lacks an essential feature to make it valuable. We should provide that our children coming after may have the same advantages of. natural resources that we have today"

Birmingham. Oct 24-(SpeciaD-- United States Senator Joseph F.

In New York, they hate Roosevelt and they fear that Taft will be controlled and guided by him.

 The police theory Is that the man is some one mentally deficient, possibly some one who had lost a favorite child and endeavored to replace her in this strange way. The searchers are confident that the place where the girl was kept prisoner is somewhere close to the heart of the town, and that the long ride and walk were merely a blind to confuse the child.

German Author Has Great sebem. rO
 War. -

Berlin, Oct. 24-1err Rudolf Martin government councillor and author of ''The Coming War in the Air" who IS president of the recently formed Ger man League for Motor-Airshfp Navi- gation. fired the imagination of his hearers at a public meeting in Berlin with plan for the conquest of Eng land by airships.
 He asserted that the principal duty of aerial, naxigators was to induce the combined continental powers to con struct fleet of 10000 Zeppelin" each to, carry twenty soldiers, which should land and capture the sleeping Britons before they could realize what was taking place.
 Herr Martin disposed of the British fleet by predicting that they would turn tall and leave the coasts defence less aa Baen as the serial al4arniada hove in view in order to avoid beI4SE blown uD by the shells which would other wise be dropped on to them from the clouds sa4
 The aerial armada would assemble at leisure at points opposite the Ene- fish coast and begin their death-deai- ing voyage as soon as the weather was favorable.
 Herr Martin thought that artillery and cavalry could be landed in Eng land quite as easily as 100000 infan- try. Before he finished his alluring sketch of Great Britain's fall his audi anee was rocking wish merriment.

 Paris. Oct. 24--Another mysterious murder has been discovered at Autun. The body of rich cattle dealer, M. T1azare Leuthereau, of Dun-ies- Places, In the Nieyre Department, wrapped in a blanket. was found in a second class carriage of train from Paris to Autun. On his head were a num- Der of terrible wounds, which appear to have been inflicted by heavy ham mer.
 There was no trace of a struggle in the compa rtment. and the floors did not even show signs of blood.
 The pocket-book of the deceased containing a large sum of money, is missing. anu the police consequently believe that the motive for the crime was robbery. M. Leuthereau for the last twenty years had visited Paris every week on business.

Cotton Operative spinners Hold . Conference.

Confercnee.
 Manchester. Eng, Oct. 24 In ac- coFdance with the recommendation of the management committees of the Federation of Trade Unions, the ex- ecuttves of the Amalgamated Society of Cotton Operative Splnners and the Card and Blowing Operatives Amafgamation met In Manchester a few days ago for the purpose of dis cussing the situation. and If possible, of adjusting their grievances. espe- cially in regard to the spinners' claim for lockout benefit from the Fedora ton of Trade Unions.
 There was little prospect of agree ment being reached on this point, for the card-room workers allege that the spinners have let them down.
 The conference lasted for eight hours. but. owing to the known antag- onism between the two sections they did not discuss the situation together.
 The nature of the communications which passed between the respective sides shows that the proceedings were not of harmonious character.
 When the conference was over one of the cotton leaders said that, so far as he knew, the cotton war may con- tinue for months Altogether nearly twenty questions and replies passed between the two rooms in which the respective leaders were, and no agree meht could be arrived at The card1 room officials said that they were of the opinion that the spInners were not entitled to federation benefit
 The conference ended without any good purpose having been served. The claim of the spinners for lock -out ben- efits will be considered by the man agement committee later on. but there Is little prospect of the claim being granted.

FederatiOn of Trades Unions Issues q Manifesto. London, Oct. 24.-Tho management committee of the General Federation of Trade Unions has issued a manifesto on unemployment in which it is as- serted that something like 7,500.000 human beings in this country are suf- fering because the breadwinners are workless. It bases its total on the following calculations:
 There are five million skilled work men in Great Britain. of whom ten per cent are totally or partially un- employed. For every skilled workman out of employment two unskilled men. are workless. Each worker rep- resents a family of five.
 With facts it Is easy to produce the following summary:
 Skilled workers unemployed. 800. 900 Unskilled workers unemployed .00o ,O0O AHelf IaNliiies' .6,OO0, 900 The manifesto makes a number oY recommendations for dealing with the situation. These include the creation or minister of labor, with a seat in the cabinet. and the formation of a permanent unemployment board.
 1t also suggests that all public bodies should stipulate fin all their contracts for the total abolition of overtime, and that trade unions shouId give executive instructions to all thejr iHeihoers to refuse to work overtime.

MONTH OF VARIED WEATHER
Records for November Show a High
Temperature of 63 and Twenty
Inches of Snow.

The weather bureau Tuesday issued its
monthly bulletin dealing with conditions
during November. The record shows
some interesting facts: indeed, some o.
the phenomena were without precedent in
the history of the station. which ex-
tends over a period of thirty-five years.
The feature of the month. of course
was the remarkably heavy snowfall on
the 23d, 2th and 18th. Up to the 21st
there had not been a sign of condensed
moisture IN the atmosphere. On the list
there was a trace. The total snowfall
during the month was 20.7 inches of
which 10 inches remained ON the ground
at the end of the month. The precipita-
ton for the month was nearly two inches
and about one-half inch in excess of the
average for thirty-five years.
In view of the fact that twenty-five
days were dry, the amount of precipita-
ton is remarkable
The highest temperature was IS degrees
on the I'd: the lowest 10, on the 29th the
greatest daily range q. on the LIST; the
least daily range 5. on the oath. The
and the mean for the month in thirty
five years has been 40.6.
The prevailing wind was southeast.
There was a total movement of 265i
miles. The average hourly velocity was
81 miles: the maximum velocity for five
minutes was % miles an hour, from the
northwest or the 22d.
There were ten days when the sun
shine was 100 per cent: one day between
90 and 100: three between 50 and 80; three
between 20 and 50. There were three days
when no sunshine was recOrded-the sd.
