S700,O00,000 HIS
FORTUNE q

New York, Aug. 20.-Despite the
general slump in stocks caused by
reports of the serious illness of E.
H. Hartman. Standard Oil stock
reached new high mark today when
it was quoted on the curb at 712.
At the time of the panic In 1907,
Standard Oil fell rapidly, reaching
it's lowest mark on November 4, when
it was quoted at $50. The stock,
therefore, with today's mark, has
risen 1922 points since the panic.
Wall street experts today estimat-
ed that the rise has increased the
personal fortune of John D. Rookie
Teller by eighty million dollars. They
figure that today he has $700,000,-
600, despite the fact that he has
given to public charity one hundred
and thirty millions.
If John D. lives to be 80 years old
the statisticians declare he will have
a billion dollars. 1t is declared that
if Rockefeller should withdraw his
fortune from circulation it would
create a worldwide panic with most
serious results.

DICK ||C X AYLAN |! vs..

San Francisco, Aug. 20.-The 20
round fight between Dick Hyland
and Johnny Frayne, which Is to be
the feature in tonight's show at the
Mission Athletic club, is exciting a
lively interest in local sporting cir
cles. The two are regarded as evenly
matched and as both are fast and
clever fighters a lively contest is
anticipated. Both boys appear to be
in good shape to stand the hard
grind, having been in faithful train
ing ever since the articles were
signed.
Both Hyland and Frayne realize
that much depends upon the result
of their encounter. Hyland, who
regained a considerable part of his
lost reputation as a fighter by his
handy defeat of the much touted
Leach Cross, appreciates the fact that
his stock will be doomed still high
er If he disposes Of Frayne. The lat
ter, on the other hand, has left moth
ing undone to get himself into the
best possible shape for tonight's go,
knowing that If he whips Hyland he
will probably get a chance to meet

VALUABLE TIMBER
BURNED

Sedro- Woolley, Aug. 20.-Fierce
forest fires are destroying thousands
of dollars worth of valuable timber
in the Skagit valley and the atmos-
phere surrounding Sedro-Woolley is
dense with smoke. Forest rangers
and fire wardens, assisted by ranch
ers, mill owners and hired crews are
working night and day to check the
progress of the flames and this morn
ing it was reported that the biggest
fires are under control.
In the vicinity of Lyman and Ham
ilton the fire swept over hundreds
of acres of logged-off land, but was
checked before it reached the biggest
timber. Near Sedro- Woolley the
flames have been raging in the tim
Der of the Puget Mill company and
many of the giant frs and cedar are
reported destroyed.

GIRL IS VICTIM Of
WANDERLUST
is FOUND AFTER NINE MONTHS
DISAPPEARANCE PROWLING
ABOUT RAILROAD YARDS AT
WAUKESHA, WIS.

Pittsburg, Pa, Aug. 20.-Pos-
sessed of a wanderlust that neither
her family nor alienists who have
been called in consultation are able
to explain. Miss Mary Patterson, a
wealthy young woman of Pittsburg,
was today forcibly brought back to
the home of her mother after a per-
Tod of wandering lasting from
Thanksgiving day until she was taken
in custody at Waukesha, Wis. Satur-
day.
During her long nine months alb
sence the girl, plentifully supplied
with money from the estate of her
father, according to reports from
Waukesha and other cities and towns
in the middle west, scorned the COM
forts and luxury of Pullman and din
ing cars and chose the favored abode
of every true hobo-the box car, we'll
filled with damp excelsior and a
handout wherever it colud be pro-
cured
There were no home troubles to
explain her wanderings. Mrs. Mary
Patterson, her mother, Is a woman
of wealth and unquestioned social
position, as well as being an indulg-
ent parent The only explanation
the alienists have is that the lure of
the road called the girl and she an
swered.
The estate of her father was set
tied several days before Thanksgiv-
ing day The girl was at her home
the morning on which the president
Of the United States commands that
the people of the nation give thanks,
but when the family board groaned
with turkey and cranberry sauce
and the daughter was called to the
table there was no response. She
had departed for parts unknown.
For months no trace of the girl
could be discovered, although detect
i've agencies were employed in the
case. A few days ago. however, her
mother received long distance tele
phone call. The voice of her daugh-
ter could be plainly distinguished.
She sent her love to the family, but
refused to give them any information
as to her whereabouts.
Inquiries at the telephone ex-
change proved that the message came
from Chicago.
Last week the girl appeared at
Waukesha and registered at the
Spring City hotel as NJ. E. Graham
of Clinton. Iowa. The attention Of
the hotel attaches was attracted to
the young woman by her peculiar &C
tions, among them being a propen-
sity for sleeping on the floor of her
room and bringing up food from the
dining hall to eat cold.
The police authorities were noti-
fed. Then Miss Patterson disap-
peared Search by the police was
instituted and she was found prowl-
ing about the Milwaukee railroad
yards seeking convenient box car
She was taken in custody and i'm
prisoned in the home of the sheriff
Miss Patterson was indignant ana
demanded her release. Later she at
tempted to escape Asked as to her
identity and residence. she refused
to make any statement. but during
the questioning mentioned the name
of DR.. Seip of Pittsburg.
Through him her mother was mott
fed Force was necessary to COM
pei her return to Pittsburg.

ORIGIN OF THE ROD.
Used in Driving Oxen, It Came Handy
 in Measuring Land.

The origin of the rod, pole or perch as a lineal and superficial measure has, been traced to the rod. pole or goad used to urge and direct team of oxen pulling a plough So il came about it was used as n convenient and handy land measure in feudal times by the lords in allotting plots of land for az ricultural purposes to the yilleins and others.
 One rod wide and forty long 0. e.. one furrow long. deep) built up a qttar of an acre and same depth~-i. e.. forty poles. on c acre-was a convenient length for a furrow before turning the plough. Df course these lengths somewhat varied in different parts of the country where soils and agricul- ture varied. but gradually the slight variations grew less and finally the present accepted statutory acre was evolved.

He was a professor of astrono- my at Gresham college, London. and ingenously adapted it to facilitate deci- maj calculations in land measurements.

FORESTRY ATTRACTIVE WORK.
Supply of Good Men Not Equal to
 the Waiting Positions.

young man can become a for ester now just as he can become a lawyer. a minister or a doctor. ex- cept perhaps he may have to go farther to attend professional school. More trained men are need cd than the schools are turning out The national government, with it's 95,000,O0O acres of national forest area, employs about 2.000 foresters. rangers and guards. and needs a much larger force Timber land own CTS, lumber companies. educational institutions and states which are be- ginning to take up forestry are all seeking good men.
 To be a good forester a man should combine something of the naturalist with a good deal of the business man. He must have the power of observa- tion. a fondness for nature and the ability to penetrate her secrets. But if he is to succeed he must also have practical judgment and the abil- ity to handle mem A forester must combine vigorous mind with viz orous body. He must be of the kind that likes to get things done. and does not give up when things are not going his way. He will have to face difficulties and work out problems for himself. far from ont side help. relying solely upon his own resources, supported by his own courage. He ought to be hard to whip.
 The professional forester cannot hope for big fees and certain pleas ant surroundings of life which crown distinguished success in some other professions. He must \ be content without much luxury; he will have to spend good deal ef time out of the reach of the ordinary comforts. He must be able and willing to rough it without complaint. to sleep on hard beds. sometimes with only the
