st. Petersburg, Oct. 6.--The twenty
four hour ended at noon yesterday
showed 141 new cases of cholera, 72
deaths, and l72 patients discharged as

This is a slight increase as compared

PHILADELPHIA 2a5 YEARS OLD.
Slow Town People Joyously Celebrated
The City's Birthday Yesterday.

Philadelphia, Oct. 6.-With the boom
ing of the guns of the American war
ships in the Delaware river of this city
at sunrise yesterday the second day in
the elaborate program for the celebra-
tion OF the 225 anniversary of the
founding of Philadelphia was ushered in
feature was the great parade of United
States regulars, sailors and marines,
and the entire division of the Penn
sylvania national guard.
One of the pretty ceremonies of the
day was the proclamation sounded by
neralds at the four entrances to city
hall at $3.50 O'Clock. The heralds, eight
in number and attired in medieval cos
tunes, rode on prancing horses from the
court yard in the centre of city hall to
the entrance facing the four winds, and
then they proclaimed to all people the
actual beginning of the days cere-
monies.
A half hour later in the beautiful re-
ception hall of the Office of the mayor
of Philadelphia there was struck the
first impression of the new city seal.
The new seal contains the date 1853 and
the motto Philadelphia Maneto" (Let
brotherly love continue). A public re-
ception followed
Later in the city hall court yard
came the unwilling of tablet TO mark
the camp of Comte de Rocbambeau,
commander in chief of the French army
in America, with 5000 patriots, in Sep
TENDER, 1871, while on their way to the
battle of the Revolution at Yorktown,
where they assisted Washington in cap
turing CORVALLIS.

have 90 years. supply. Assuming the
same conditions, with an annual growth
Of 40 billion feet, we have SO years sup
ply. With an annual use of $50 billion
feet these estimates become, respec-
lively. 13 and Is years.
Ii is apparent from these computa
tions why the national conservation
commission considers the census OF
timber so essential TO the preparation
OF It's inventory.
THE chief difference between the
methods now being employed by the
conservation commission and those the
bureau Of the census would use are,
that while the bureau would send out
enumerators to make personal visits to
on parts of the country, the commits
sion is aiming at the same results
through a tremendous amount of cor
respondenee. For instance, 3,100 let
ters have gone out TO county clerks,
asking for statements of forest areas
in their counties. Seven thousand lum-
b6rmen and timberland owners have
been asked to supply similar informa
don In all nearly 10000 letters have
been sent These letters also ask for
a wide variety Of information besides
the area and capacity Of forests, They
touch upon all phases not only Of the
numbering and milling industries but of
all others which are even indirectly de-
pendent upon the use of wood. The
purpose Of the commission is not mere
" to elam how much wood is growing
now, but how long it may be expected
to last and how the supply may be pro-
loneed by economy.
All government departments and bu
