RAMMED BY SCHOONER
THIMBLE SHOAL LIGHTHOUSE
Is DESTROYED.
Fire, Caused by Overturned Stove,
Consumes the Building-Keeper
and Assistants Rescued.

NEWPORT NEWS. Va, December 2S.--
Having been rammed and almost cut in
two by the four masted schooner Nal
colin Baxter jr., the Thimble Shoal light
house. located four miles almost due east
from Old Point Comfort and near the
tail of the horseshoe" in lower Chesa-
peake bay. caught fire and was destroyed
yesterday.
B. Thomas and T. L. Faulcher, put off
I'm lifeboat and We're subsequently pick
ed up by a rescue crew.
Vessel Off It's Course.
The schooner was inward-bound for
Hampton roads in ballast and was pro-
ceeding under sail. The strong westerly
wind and swift tide threw her off her
course and without warning she crashed
into the frame lighthouse. The house
crumbled before the vessel like box. and
in the smash-up the stove in the light
house was overturned. The hot Goals set
the building fire, and all efforts of
the occupants of the lighthouse to eX-
tinguish it we're futile. Seeing that the
flames must destroy the building, the
lighthouse men lowered q lifeboat and set
out for shore
After the collision the Malcolm .Bax-
ter veered off and anchored, but was
later lowed to Norfolk for repairs. The
vessel was damaged about the bow.
The flames could be seen from Old
Point, and several tugs started for the
scene, but the frame building was about
destroyed when they arrived. Immediate
" after the flames broke through the
roof of the building launch from the
Birmingham steamed for the lighthouse
at full speed and picked up the men from
the lighthouse.
The burning of the structure was re-
ported to the lighthouse board by wire
and a request has been made that a
Iightship be placed near the wreck until
a new lighthouse can be built.

acres of reserves are divided into 149
tracts Of territory, varying in size. and
are now under the care Of six district
foresters. selected for their ability and
experience. with headquarters at Mis-
soula. Denver, Albuquerque, Ogden, San
Francisco and Portland. These superin-

called, have the management Of the bust
ness under the general direction OF Sec

chief OF the forest service Of the Agrf-
cultural Department.
Care of the Forests.
Each of the 140 different forests is in
charge of supervisor, who is' selected
for his practical knowledge Of lumber
ing, grazing and other parts of the
business. He. in turn, has assistants
to look after the details Of the many
different lines Of work to be carried out.
He must have nurserymen Of experience
have cruisers OF experience to go about
through the woods and mark the mature
trees that can be. cut. and superintend
the. work Of the lumberman who have
been given contracts to cut and haul
them out. He must see that the measure
ments and scaling arc accurate, and
that the rules for logging are properly
observed. Rangers patrol the forests 90
prevent fire and trespass, and to see
that the privilege Of grazing granted to
cattle and sheep men liz not abused.
They must be hard-headed, brave. prac-

somewhat parallel to that Of q civil
engineer, but they must know botany
and the science Of numbering also.
The headquarters force at Washington
is composed of several divisions each
under the direction Of q trained and ex-
perienced specialist. The office of opera
ton employs engineers. miners and other
investigators. makes surveys and maps,
builds roads, trails. bridges. ranger sta

The Office of grazing looks after the
contracts with cattle and sheep men,
studies the best means OF preserving and
Of stamping out the poisonous plants
that are injurious to live stock.
The Office Of silvicuiture plants trees,
investigates botanical conditions ana all
problems connected with the life and
growth Of trees, and gives advice to pri-
vate companies and individuals who are
interested in similar lines Of work.
The office Of products disposes Of the
timber. and studies means to make the
business of forestry more economical and
profitable.
The work is now thoroughly organized,
and last year the expense of protecting,
improving and conducting the business
was done for about two mills per acre,
which includes building roads, trails.
range stations. telegraph and telephone
lines and other permanent improvements.

HIS SANITY RESTORED.
Man With Homicidal Tendencies
Repains His Reason.

ST. LOUIS, No, December 2s.-Patrol-
man Thomas F. Cuddihee returned to
his home yesterday and his sanity re-
stored He had been at the city hospi-
tai for three weeks. where part of his
skull had been removed.
Two years ago he was hit on the head
with a club by q negro The. blow
changed him from an officer Of the law
with a gold medal for bravery into a
man who sought to kill his wife and chill
dren.
He had been treated at the state insane
asylum and had been discharged as cured
when he again sought to harm his family.
1t was then decided that an operation
would be necessary. This was done and
the bone which had pressed on the brain
was removed. Cuddihee will rest at his
home for few weeks before returning
to his beat.

Growing Trees.

and purchas sing waste land for that pur-
pose. The Pennsylvania and several other
companies are also furnishing nursery
stock free of cost to farmers along their
lines who will plant oak, chestnut, cedar
and eucalyptus In order to furnish future

planted last year, probably. than any
other kind. and most of them in Califor-
mia.
II is interesting in this connection to
read of the great work which is being done
in Europe in replanting waste lands with
trees. Every year many thousands of
acres are reclaimed in this way and put
in condition preparatory to yielding a prof
liable harvest of poles, ties and lumber
to future generations. France has been
foremost in this work. and the govern

in the mountains. which il plants

increasing source Of revenue. but have
proven to be a powerful factor in con-

Up to January. 1907. the French govern
ment had planted $4,000 acres in this
way. and had furnished nursery stock for
the planting of :43.H0 additional acres by
local authorities. corporations and pri-
