Gilbert Breaks the Record.

Gilbert, the worlds champion, has
broken another pole-vaulting record. He
cleared thirteen feet in practice recently,
and there seems no likelihood of his de-
feat, unless the present plans of conduct
ing the vaulting and high jumping con-
tests are persisted in. The Americans con-
tend that vaulters must be allowed to dig
a hole for the pole and that the ground
on the farther side of the bars must be
dug up to lessen the shock of alighting.
The Canadians and others are Directing
to these conditions, asserting that there
should be no hole for the pole and that
the jumpers should alight on turf
The drawing for heats also has been the
cause of objection. The committee in
charge of this detail decided that the
drawings should be made by the selection
of slips bearing the names of the various

Rector. the Splinter, has shown Won
derful bursts of speed in practice, and
likewise has proved himself fast

as to whether he will be able to last 100

lance and 100 yards does not appear to be
much, but 1t is considerable for a finely
trained man who is accustomed to the
shorter sprint. The other American

Power House, Transmission Lines and

Seventy-tiye miles Of hard running

electric car made by a big electric
company is decided success. and it
promises to revolutionize railroading

an official one. A speed of sixty miles
an hour was made. Perfect control of
the speed was possible at all times.

combines the power house. transmits
sion lines. substations and all the ben
efts of electric traction without the

Two electric motors of sixty horse

are furnished current By 100 horse

Not even the exhausted gases are
wasted, for these are driven through

LEAP YEAR PROPOSAL.
Pretty Girl Dares East St. Louis
COMPTROLLER to Wed

Six pretty St. Louis girls and their
guest, a southern belle, have put a
leap year proposal up to City Comp
troller Frank B. Hanna of East St.

will make him stand by his recent dec
laration that he will marry the first

Miss Betty Sharpe of Norfolk.
Va, reputed to be an heiress, wrote
the letter of proposal while visiting
Misses Blanche, Hazel and Maude
Skinner at 1923 Virginia avenue, in st.

With six other girls Miss Sharpe
drew straWs to see who would storm,
the heart of Comptroller Hanna. After
each had solemnly pledged herself to
abide by the result Miss Sharpe drew
the fatal straw. Belle and Dorothy

Miss Lou Jackson of North Grand av-
enue were with the Skinner sisters
and Miss Sharpe when the drawing
took place.
Amid many giggles and suggestions
the letter to Hanna was penned Had
Miss Sharpe been so inclined she
could have added that she is a stun

OHI0AN's PLAN TO FREE THAW
Offers to Take the Prisoners Place
For $3,00O,000.

OF the thousands of letters received
ing the second trial of Harry Thaw,
charged with the murder of the late
Stanford White, the most amazing
came to the wife of the prisoner the
other day. says the New York Times.
The writer was man in Ohio, who
sent 600 page communication by reg
istered mail.
His proposition is to change places
with the prisoner for $3,OO0,O00, to be
placed in the hands of an intermedi-
ary he to run the risk of the death
chair or Matteawan The letter was
accompanied by photographs showing
a likeness between the writer and the
prisoner The letter is sanely written
and goes into minute details of the
proposed escape. The double, it is
proposed, is to visit ThaW wearing a
wig and a disguise that can be easily
changed from one to the other. The
writer says that he is not making the
proposition to kill time, as he is
married man and has a family. but
has been a failure in life. The COM
munication was turned over to her
husbands counsel by Mrs. Thaw.
One of the proposals made is that
from Staten Island hypnotist, who
offers for a sum of money to put
quietus on District Attorney Jerome
and ruin his summing up by telepathy
Another is from a ventriloquist who
for fee will sit in the courtroom and
when the foreman opens his mouth to
pronounce the verdict of the jury will
throw his voice in his direction and
pronounce Thaw not guilty. He guar
Tantees that this will at least result in
a mistrial.
Cranks anxious to marry Evelyn Nes-
bit Thaw if her husband goes to the
electric chair or to the madhouse have
put in 122 applications so far.

Finger Nail Pen.

Miss Lizzie Martin. an eighteen-year-
old Red Lion girl, has devised a finger
nail pen, with which she does all her
letter writing, says York (Pa.) dis
patch. The sight Of an old quill pen
gave Miss Martin the idea Of allowing
the nail of the index finger of her right
hand to grow to a proper length. The
nail was then trimmed to the shape Of
a pen and split. The girl declares that,
aside from its novelty. the new pen is
a decided improvement over the ordi-
nary sort.

MANAGING TIMBER LANDS.
Co operative Work In Which National!
Forest Service Is Engaged.


Forest Service Is Engaged.
That Uncle Sam believes thoroughly
in the conservative management Of
timber lands is shown by the fact that
he is practicing forestry on lands other.
than those contained in the national
forests in the west.
Besides cooperating with private.
owners of woodland in assisting them
to apply conservative management and
with various states in study of their
forest conditions. the United States
forest service co-operates also with
the other branches of the federal gov
eminent. Chief among these branches
is the war department.. The military
reservations which SO far have been
examined and reported upon are those
at West Point, n. Y; Fort Wingate.
N. NJ; the Rock Island arsenal in Hi
nois and the Picatinny arsenal in New
Jersey At West Point the forest con
sists of second growth hard woods and
for some time has in part supplied the
poles, tanbark and other forest prod
ucts. The forest service made a work
ing plan for this forest in 1908. and
since then cutting has been along con-
sentative lines with a view of per-
petuating the forest and at the same
time supplying the post with a definite
amount of wood each year. Similar
plans are in preparation for the for
ests of Rock Island and Picatinny
arsenals.
By far the largest piece Of co-opera-
tive work in which the service is now
engaged is that at Fort Wingate, N
NJ, where, under the supervision of
forest officers, the war department is
selling 25,00OO0O feet of western yei-
low pine This timber lies in the south
east corner of a reservation of 100
square miles, is inaccessible to the post
and was consequently offered for sale.
The top market price is being obtained
for it, and it is being cut under rigid
contract according to forestry princi-
pies. Under this contract no trees I'M
der sixteen inches in diameter can be
cut except those which are dead or de-
fective and those whose removal will
benefit the forest, and no tree can be
cut unless marked by forest officer.
Two trees sixteen inches or over in
diameter are left per acre when need
ed for seed, stumps must not exceed
eighteen inches in height and all mer-
charitable timber, both standing and
down, as indicated by the forest Off
Ger, must be removed. Failure to re-
move any timber so indicated and the
Intentional cutting of unmarked trees
are penalized by a stumpage charge
Of double the contract price.
All brush is being piled and burned,
and thus the danger of fire is consid-
erably lessened. The sale was start
ed last summer, and it Is expect
ed to continue through a period of
five years, with a cut of 100000 feet
a year Already about 100000 feet
have been marked for cutting by a for
est officer The sale is progressing
without friction between buyer and
seller, and from the start forest Of
ticer has been continuously on hand to
look out for Uncle Sam.
