ENGLISH GIRLS
OECOYEO ABROAD
Hundreds of Young English Lassies
Are. lured to Foreign Countries,
Where Ruin Is Spelled.

LONDON, March 30.-Social work.
ers in England have for many years
been striving 20 cope with the very
grave scandal affecting the welfare of
hundreds of young English girls who
are induced to accept employment on
the continent and in the United States
and South America, but have always
been confronted with grave Difficult les,
which they recognize can only be re-
moved by the Introduction of cOmpre-
hensive legislation. Definite steps are
now being taken with the object of
achieving this end. Mrs. Bramwell
Booth is interesting herself very ac-
lively in the matter, and is writing to
"The TimS, addressing meetings and
writing letters to prominent persons
urging help. She says the home secre-
tary is making inquiries in o the mat
ter. Seamen are protected fro mrecep-
ton by he law which provides for
the presence of a board Of trade Off
cials when they sign their paper for
each voyage, and it is urged that these
girls be protected in the same way.

The Honolulu Chamber of Commerce is

week confiscated two vicious living
scorpions, the largest of which meas

were brought from Java by a local
scientist, who had no intention of let

takes no chances and both insects We're
summarily dispatched. Hawaii has
never had snake or other dangerous

INCREASE IN SALES OF PRODUCTS
FROM NATIONAL RESERVES
SHOW CONDITIONS.
One SaIeMade Was for $4,000, OOO
Board Feet-Many Are for Dead
Timber Fire Killed.

PORTLAND, March 3G-A good in
dication of the increasing use to which
the national forests of Oregon and
Washington are put by people Of the
northwest is the increase in the timber
sac work for the last three months
over the same period last year in the
district forest service headquarters in
this city where all the business con-
nected with the selling of national for
est timber is now handled. More than
40 sales Of stumpage have been initia-
ted. one sale is for 100000 board
feet, but most of the sales are for
smaller amounts.
Many Of he sales are wholly or in
part of dead timber, chiefly fire killed,
and all of the sales are SO conducted
that the forest is really benefited by
removing the timber. When green tim
Der is cut it is chiefly the over mature
or fully ripe timber that is taken. If
a clean cutting is made, as is usually
the method in the Douglas fir ty e, it
is done in such a way that reproduc-
ton will replace the stand that is re7
moved. Where a stand is not cut
clean the selection method is used and
only the mature and unthrifty trees
are taken. leaving perhaps half the
stand to grow and form the basis for
another similar cutting 20 or 80 years
from now.
A rather unusual sale is now pend
ing up near Lake Chelan, Washington,
and Douglas fir 100 10 400 feet wide
and II miles long is to be sold and
will be cut clean along the crest of a
high ridge The sale is made in this
way in order to provide a fire break
on the crest of this ridge, there being
great danger in this place of fire sweep
ing up one slope and running down
the other. Naturally the haul will vary.
hence a sliding scale of prices varying
from S1.00 20 50 90 per thousand feet
has been fixed according to the dis
lance from the lake.
Some of the prices received by the
forest service under competitive bid
ding show that loggers do not find it
costly or troublesome to log under the
restrictions imposed by the govern
ment. The following list gives some
sample prices that have been received
by the forest services:

UNITED STATES BUD.

EXPENDITURES.
Uncle Sam Is Second Only to
John Bull When it Comes
to Spending Money.

WASHINGTON, March 30-Prac-
tically every great nation is facing a
deficit in it's annual budget, and that
Of the United States is largest of all,
although Germany is not far behind
us in this respect.
In it's last budget year Great Britain
expended in round figures 1895, 900, 900
on it's army and navy and the United
States expended $220,0O0,000. We have
not handy the figures for Germany and
France, but assume that their combined
expenditures were equal to those of
the United States and Great Britain.
Here, then, are the four leading ma
tons of the world expanding annually
O. total of $1,000, 100000 for the MAIN
tenance of their armies and navies
These expenditures, it should be borne
in mind, are exclusive of the annual
requirements for pensions and interest
on public debt on account Of past wars.
IN the case of the United States these
two items of interest and pensions
amount to $163,7O0,000 annually If
this annual expenditure of $1,OOO,0OO,-
900 for maintenance of armies and
navies in time of peace were capital
| lied at five per cent it would mean
that the average net return of $4,000

FLYERS MOTOR IS DEAD
WRIGHT NARROWLY AvERTs BAD
 TUMBLE TO EARTH.
When Motor Ceases Operation, Avia- tor Qrabs Levers From Assis- taAt and Brings Machine
 tGently to Ground.

College Park, Md. Oct. 1s,--Motor troubles, the plague of the auto mobiiist. proved today also to be a plague of aviators. While fhe govern ment aeroplane was flying twenty feet above the earth with Lieutenant Frank P. Lahm operating the levers. the motors suddenly stopped. The the levers without delay and brought the machine safely to earth.
 The motors stoppage. which might have been followed by such an acci- dent as that at Fort Myer a year ago. when Lieutenant Selfridge was killed, proved to be the source of much amusement. After the machine was brought to earth. MT. Wright himself could not get a single 'chug" from the motors.
 1t was afterward discovered that the care-taixer of the machine had fail- ed to replenish the gasoline supply.
 Altogether five instruction flights were made today, two in the early morning and the other three after o'clock. Lieutenants Lahm and Hum- phreys each accompanied Mir. Wright on one of the morning flights. while Lieutenant Humphreys made two of the later flights. and Lieutenant Lahm the other.
 During one of the afternoon flights, when Lieutenant Humphreys was with the instructor, the aeropiane again raced with a railroad train. It seem ed to be moving faster than the train.
 Tn the last flight of the day. on which Mir. Wright was accompanied by Lieutenant Lahm. the machine re- mained aloft nineteen minutes and five seconds. being the longest flight that has been made at College Park.
 Lieutenant Benjamin D. Foulois will begin taking instructions from Mir. Wright within a short time and the aviation lessons at College Park will be concluded by the end of the month.
 Lieutenant Foulois today gave Mir. Wright the governments check for $20.000 as a part payment for the ma chine which was purchased from the Wright brothers for the signal corps. Another sio,o00. making the total price of $3o.000. will be paid when the two army officers who have been re- instructions are pronounced aviators.

vertiser.
 MT. W. T. sheehan of The Adyer. tiser. introduced Mrs. Killer to the au- dience. He said that this course would be distinct auvantage to all Mont. soniery ana that II mould in s measure equip the housekeepsr tu cope inteili- gently with the question or incvHlpe- tent negro servants.
 Mrs. ttiller before beginning her regular lesson, gave a most interest," ing account ot the cities in which she nas lectured. She said that when she gave her dourse in Denver last April that her audience numDered from 3,5O0 to 5.OUO persons. and that about 500 of that number were men.
 So much integest was manifested. |" said Mrs. Hitler, that we moved three times, seeking larger quarters, and finally occupied the National Demo- cratic Convention Hall. which is an immense place"
 Mrs. Killer said that at the age of 17 she married and left her home, go- ing to the far West to live. She was in absolute ignorance of things per- taintng to the home outside of the care of her personal belongings, and she found cooking a great problem. She then determined that if she ever had the opportunity she would found a School of Domestic Science for Women. She carried out her Idea. and establish ed the Chicago Domestic Science Train ing School.
 Her lecture yesterday afternoon was on "The Ideal Kitchen" and its appoint ments.
 A platform is arranged In the Audi torium to represent a kitchen; the floor Is covered with blue and white lino- leum, and the number of white enam- eled cooking vessels, and the gas range shown would delight any housewife.
The Montgomery advertiser., 1909-10-20

Mrs. Hitler said that domestic sci- ence is the science of right living. and that health and happiness depend on the Kitchen. which is the hub from which everything radiates.
 She said that heretofore . ban had been placed on the kitchen. but now 1t was being made so attractive that 1t Ia q pleasure. to work there. Mrs Hitler says the model kitchen should be well lighted and well ventilated. and have sunshine In Abundance. The walls and ceiling should be covered with sanitary coverings as ungiaxed paper. which may be varnished every two years with hard white varnish. or else art calcamine. which may be re- placed twice Q year If necessary. at . small cost.
 The floor should be covered with blue and inlaid linoleum. This will last az long as the floor itself. and is easiest to clean. and springs to the step.
 Sash curtains for the kitchen should be of crash or of grass linen in bsue and white. They should be on roes. and not strings. to prevent sagging in the middle sitxsen by eighteen feet. or fourteen by sixteen feet. Is a good size for the kitchen.
 She also gave interesting notes about the artificial lighting of the kitchen. where to place the kitchen table. and the proper utensils to use, also @ sys- tenn of measurements.
 Mrs. Hiller's next lecture will be this afternoon at 2:30 o'clock. when her subject will be Soups and Soup Gar nishings."

INDUSTRIES OF ALABAMA.
Good Roads Sentiment Adds to Prog-

Good Roads Sentiment Adds to Frog
 xess.
 Columbus, Ga. Oct. 19.---(Special.)-- The Georgia and Alabama Industrial Index will say tomorrow in its regular weekly issue:
 If the cheerful hum of industry and progress in Georgia and Alabama dur ing the past week were analysed 1t would be found to be an industrial and commercial medley in which so many good things entered that 1t would be difficult to classify them. The growth of the good roads sentiment as shown by various incidents, the formation of new business enterprises and the con- spicuously heavy investments In farm lands are features so prominent, how ever. that they cannot be overlooked. The real estate activity, which has been growing more and more pronounced In recent weeks, Is now assuRaing rather striking proportions. In one Georgia County, Sumter, about S20O,000 of farm lands has been sold during the past thirty days. the consideration being as high as $50 an acre in more than one Instance, and the present high price of cotton Is given as the principal reason for the large investments In planta- tions in that section of the State. At a saie of suburba nlots in Atlanta the sum of sI10.82o was realized. The Tennessee Coal. Iron and Railroad Com pany continues to acquire property in the vicinity of Birmingham. Ala. and during the week deeds to mineral lands for amounts aggregating S125.000 were filed, the price paid being $S90.62 per acre. A number of Iowa people have acquired a 5000 acre tract at Onion town, Ala, and will devote 1t to the growing of alfalfa.
 Surveys are being made for 6 rail- road which ir is planned to build through several of the Northeast 0eor- gia mountain counties. to facilitate the development of large timber tracts ac- uuired by New York State investors. A S1O0.000 real estate company was form ed at Gadsden, Ala. and a company Is being formed with ambitious plans for the development Of Fort Payne, Ala. on a large scale.
 "Just exactly twenty-six new corpo- rations were formed in Georgia and Alabama during the week and their minimum capital stock aggregates Sl,- a43,0O0. Cuthbert Ga, and Greenville. Ga, voted bonds for public improve ments. Dalton. Ga. reports a $1o0,oo0 mining and building material company. Tailadega Ala. a blaming mill. and Queenstown, near Birmingham. brick plant. A handsome passenger station Is to be erected at Waycross. Ga. Tus- caloosa County, Alabama. awarded the contract for a modern jail. Several of the larger hotels in the two States are to be substantially improved. Gaines vile, Ga, has organized Board of Trade, and Talladega, Ala. completed the organization of such an institution"

Anniston Has Found Latest Rain De-
 vefOper.
 Anniston. Oct. 19.--(Specia1)-T Is still something new under the sun, the latest evidence Of this fact being the discovery near Wellington. in this county, of q number of so-called "rain bugs" by 8. D. simpson. well known planter.
 Rome. Ga. recently glided into the limelight by the discovery in that city of raining tree,' but Mir. Simpson says that his discovery completely discounts the Rome freak, as. he says, the trees do not "rain" at all but that it is the bugs that rain" while they are in operation on the trees. and to prove this assertion, he brought a number of the young specimens to An- niston yesterday and placed them on exhibition.
 Those who have seen the rain bugs in operation say that as a novelty they have the trained fleas beat a city block, and there is some talk of culti- vating them for exhibition on the mid- ways of county and State fairs.
