The fire record also deserves mention. Since the

of fires are made for fiscal but for calendar years
During the calendar year 1907 the loss of timber by hre

This immunity from fires must be ascribed chiefly to
the results of consistent efforts made In the past to IN

the following statement:

Increase In number Of timber sales .......... 236
Increase in amount of timber observation-disclosures. 102
Increase in number Of freetimber permits 76

able timber alone forms, just it stands, asset
worth something like $SOoOOOOOo. while the very mod
crate grazing charge yielded the government last year
income of nearly $1O00000. 1t is safe prediction
that within 20 the forests will bring in from the

millions of dollars.

Queer stories come from Morocco
and none has been aueerer than that
relating to Sultan Mulai Hafid and his
treatment of 81 Roghi. the pretender
TO the throne. It has been alleged
that the sultan kept 81 Roghi prison
er In narrow cage in which he was
exposed to the multitude and subject
ed to gross insults and indignities.
This proceeding evoked protest
from the European powers. and the
sultan let up" on the prisoner. Now
comes the tale that the man in the
cage was not 81 Roghi at all. but an
impostor who impersonated the pre-
tender, while the latter was in collu-
sion with the sultan. to whom he paid
liberal sums OF money. and thus Sc
cured Immunity from trouble.
