TErRAzzlNl is STRICKEN.
Singer Undone by Boston Beans and
Brown Bread.

New York, April 16.-Mme. Louisa
Tetrazzini is a victim of Boston baked
beans and Boston brown bread, and
she is ill in her apartment in the
Knickerbocker hotel. Her digestion,
which she is proud to say has assimil-
ated every European dish. fell down
before Boston beans and Boston bread
on Sunday morning, and as a result
she had to delay her trip to Europe.
She was booked to sail Wednesday
on the Mauretania to open the opera
season at Covent Garden in London in
LA Traviata,' ION April 26. But at the
last moment Signor Bazelli, her man
ager, cancelled the passage. Nine.
Tetrazzini, who is as robust as most
prima donnas, had often told her
friends that she could eat anything,
and some of them told her to beware
Of Boston. She laughed.
After a breakfast of beans and
brown bread she ate box of sardiues
later in the day. While she might
have been able to handle the beans and
the brown bread, her stomach rebelled
when the sardines came along.

ger to Local Interests if Statewide
Prohibition is Adopted

ST. Louis, April 16.-Concentrated
cial, financial and manufacturing in
terests of st. Louis, to the submission
of the statewide prohibition amend
ment to the electorate of Missouri, be-
gan in earnest today, when four meet

attention to the fact that 10000 brew
cry workers would be thrown out Of
employment in this city alone, and

acres Of valuable lands to entry and

SelLlGlIlcut.
BY direction of the president the seq
retary of agriculture has given orders
for surveys in forest, reserves which
will enable him to take therefrom ev-
cry strip of untimbered land and all
lands fit for agricultural purposes.
These will be thrown into the public
domain and become the property of cit
liens of the United States who care to
enter them under the public land laws.
Forester Clifford Pinchot has been di-
rected to undertake surveys in the
state of Idaho at once, using members
of the forestry force as largely as pos
sible in running lines which will estab-
lish the exact locations Of the untin-
bered spots in the reserves. The state
of Idaho will have close to a million
acres of land returned to entry when
the surveys are made, and the presi-
dents proclamation finally goes into
effect. Colorado, Utah, Wyoming. New
Mexico, California, and all the great
coast states in which Mr.. Pinchot has
been maintaining his forest domains
comprising 196,000,000 acres, will be
given attention at an early date.
The order Of the secretary of agri-
culture is looked upon as practically a
victory for Senator Hepburn, of Idaho,
who ever since his advent to the sem
ate, has been carrying on a constant
warfare against the wholesale placing
of lands in forest reserves in the west,
During consideration of the agricul-
tural appropriation bill in the senate
in the session of the congress recently
closed he offered an amendment which
would confine the reserves to tree lands
alone and make it impossible for the
bureau Of forestry to place restrictions
upon the use of bare spots here and
there, and to keep them apart from en-
try under the homestead and other
land laws.
With the retirement of President
Roosevelt a more liberal policy toward
westerners was apparently put in
force for in the order of the secretary
of agriculture Senator Hepburn has Sc
cured practically what his defeated
amendment to the agricultural bill
called for.

Recovery in the Business Situation Is
Very Naturally Slow.
New York, April 16.-Dispatches to
Dun's Review, indicate we'll sustained
progress in the business situation al
tho recovery is naturally slow. Eastern

sections.

April are 44.0 per cent larger than a
year ago, and 2.S per cent in excess Of

trade was very active further i'm
provement compared with the two
preceding months. For the current
week, the total bank exchanges of the
leading cities are $2,564,s41,000. Com
pared with 1906, there is considerable
decrease at New York, Philadelphia,
Pittsburg and New Orleans, but at
Boston and most cities in the west
there are large gains. so that at the
leading cities outside of New York the
clearings this week are 1913 per cent
larger than in the corresponding week
