THE WOODRUFF INDUSTRY.
More than 100000 Cords Of Wood
Ground Up in 1900.

More than four million cords OF wood
were used in the manufacture Of wood
Pulp for paper making In the United
states in 1909 as shown by the annual
report on the industry issued to-day by
the census bureau, The cost of the trans
formation OF the wood. Of which there
were i,Ogc COO cords. was s34.47s,oo9 This
was an increase of about $4,000 cords
over the consumption OF 1905, but OF only
5000 over 1871
The advancing cost Of pulp wood of all
rpecic. Is clearly brought ou. in the re-
port The total consumption IN 1872
though exceeding that Of 1907 by less than
1000 cords, cost 100000 more. The cost
Tor 1909 exceeded that for 1905 to the ex-
tent OF more than 100000.
Probably the most noteworthy detail In
connection with the report Is the decrease
in the consumption OF spruce In the man
ufacture OF pulp. While that timber re-
mains by far the most popular pulp-mak-
ing wood there has been q gradual fall
ling Off the percentage Of that material
being COO in 1859; 6i,5 in 1908 and Gs.1 in
1907. The diminution OF spruce Is attribu-
ted to the increase III price which
amounted to more than dollar a cord
from 1907 to 100
A sight decrease in homlock is also noted,
whereas corresponding increases have
occurred In the consumption OF woods
heretofore little used rs pulp material,
such as balsam, white fir. and several
hard woods including birch, beech, maple,
gum, and Eastwood There also has been
an improved demand for white fir. which
has been found TO be very excellent pulp
wood. As much Of this variety OF tim
Der Is found In the national forests, tho
prediction is made that the discovery
will prove OF material benefit to the for
estry service.

ORION the Ludlow TribUEc.)
Tho State OF Vermont is spending $780,
go a year on her three normal schools.
and getting very little for her money in
the shape of trained teachers.
1t Is estimated that graduates from
these schools cost the State about $500
apiece. and 1t is an open question whether
many Of them remain in the profession
long enough after leaving the normal
school to give the state any auprecuhlc
return for what it expcnds f." their TT
ting.
Evidently there Is something wrong
about the present method on which the
state has to depend for its trained teach
crs. Several specially appointed commits
sions, of late Years, have reported in
favor Of "A change in the normal school
system; but. while q hue and cry has
been raised hiennlally on the subject Of
eXtravagancco IN appropriations, the re-
ports of these commissions have been
followed promptly by refusals on tho
part Of the Legislature to gu: down tho
appropriations or make any change in
the system
The present Legislature will be asked
to consider measure which. If enacted
into law, will reduce this cxtraVaEance
and provide our common schools with
what many of them sadly neod-prac-
tically trained teachers. This measure
would afford teacher training courses in
academies and high schools Of the State
50 situated as to AFFORD opportunity for
actua! schoolroom practice work In
grade schools. making available thorough
" trained teachers, AT greatly reduced
cost TO the state.
This bill should have careful at.en-
ton, and some change be made where

ENVEB BEY

Enyer Bey, the hero Of the Turkish Reyo-
tuition, is among ua. The boyishuess, the
modesty, the lack Of pose and withal the self
restraint OF the young Turkish loader have
greatly impressed all who have met him. Those
who remember Enver Bey in the early duys
uf the great revolution that dethroned the
Sultan are much impressed by his develop
ment since then. 1t is not SO long since the
Young Turk .conspirat0rs sent Enver Bay to
Nouastir with orders to raise Il flag Of reyO-
luton and 10 rally the troops to his side.
Other men had tried to do this more than
once before, but their end up TO then had
always been death on the spot, or a more
gruesome exit inside a sack iutO the Bos-
phorus. Where others had failed Enver
ecaceeded. PittirG LIS life as the stake,
he won, and from his triumph in Nonastir
came the dethronement of the Sultan and
the change in the political situation of
the Eastern world. Enver Bey is in Lon
don, practically as al informal ambassador
of the Young Turk Party. sent here 10
reassure the friends Of the movement, who
have been somewhat disappointed because
the radical and permanent reforms antici-
pated are not instantly seen. AS Enver
truly said, "a revolution is the work of q
moment, reform of a lifatime." Handsome,
with classical face, a slight, military figure,
a little dark moustache, cleaning eyes, and
winning manner, he is well calculated to set
at rest any doubts and besitatIons among
folk here.-Dajly MajL, March u.

MINES.
Remarkable I%ronfield with 81 Million Tons
of Ore.

The Newfoundland Government has Just
accomplished a notable feat IN Imperial fin
ance by securing from the Canadian COM
panies which are operating the IRON mines at
Wabana, Bell Island, some twelve miles from
St. Johns, a royalty of 38d. a ton per annum
on the total output for the next ten years,
and as the output is 100000 tons annually
the revenue viii benefit to the extent of
Gl5,000 annually.
What the gold reefs of Johannesburg ave
to the Transylal the Wabana IRON beds are
TO newfoundland. They form immense de-
posts Of rich red hematite ore, three miles
long and several hundred feet wide, and
showing $4,000 600 tons in sight above tho
water.
The deposit is one Of Dature's freaks. It
is Il perfect reproduction of a tiled foor
Countless millions of cubes of mineral are
laid out with rectangular precision, follow
ing the trend of the stratiticati0n, and these
seem TO have been cemented and forced
together by some giant machinery in pre-
historic days. Layer upon layer of these
cubes is seen i'll % vertical section of the
mine, and the lines of cleavage are as clearly
perfect as a child's box of blocks.
, 1910-04-09

The only difference is hat one cannot lift
one Of these mineral cubes with the fingers,
but a dynamite chlrge fixed in a portion
OF the deposit by a steam drill skaters it
for an area of many feet in every direction
and separates the solid mass into It's thou
sands Of little bricks each about three inches
square and as perfect in alignment as if
produced by an artist.
No mining, in the customary sense, is
needed. The deposit lies open 10 the sun.
and all the work involved is the looseDing

Of the fragments, which is done by men

WATER BOARD SESSION
LETTER FROM CANAL MAN

The Board Of Water Commission-
ers last night again took up the
subject of laying a new twenty-four-
inch main under the Raritan river
and it is probable that resolutions
will be passed shortly for a bond
issue to provide for the work Pres
ident Fraser broached the subject
He asked City Engineer Samuel ].
Mason about the advisability Of lay
ing the main, upon which the engi-
neer said 1T was certainly the proper
course to pursue.
Engineer Mason will render all
information possible, relative to
wells and springs at Runyon, to Will
liam F. r. Griffith, Junior engineer
of District No. /, U. S. Engineer
office, so as to protect the city's
water supply. Engineer Griffith,
through a communication which was
read last night, notified the board
that he is engaged in preparation of
plans and specifications for a canal
system through New Jersey, one of
the tentative lines Of which may
pass near the city's system Of wells
and springs. AS it is desired not to
disturb any part of the city's water
source, information relative to loca-
tion, etc, of parts of the water sys-
tenn has been requested.
A petition for a water main in
Baker place, signed by Hans A. Ras-
mussen and eight others, was re
ceiyed and referred to the commit
tee on pipe.
A communication was received
from Joseph Cottrell, engineer at
the Runyon water works, to the eff
feet that coal now supplied by G. M.
Peterson & Company is entirely
satisfactory. The communication
stated it shows a twenty per cent.

MANS BODY
ON HIS LINE
Charles N. Lynch Pulled Up
Corpse While Fishing Near
Yacht Club Buoy.
T0WED 1T TO SHORE
Unidentified at Coroner GAR
retson's Morgue-- Believed
to Be Boatman.
T0WED 1T TO SHORE

Fishing near the buoy off the
Rarftan Yacht Club about 10 o'clock
this morning, Charles M. Lynch,
manager of Paff's pool parlor at AZ
Smith street, pulled from the bottom
of the Staten Island Sound the body
of man apparently between twenty
and thirty years of age. One Of the
hooks on Lynch's line caught in the
suspender of the drowned man, and
believing he had bite, Lynch
hauled in the line until the CHASTITY,
crab-eaten face stared at him from
the water. He Immediately rowed
to the New York & New Jersey
Steamboat Company's dock at the
foot of Smith street, with the body
in tow.
There was nothing in the man s
pockets that might lead to his iden-
tity. On him were found two cents,
a sleeve garter, two keys and a pin,
one of the kind known as baby pins.
He was dressed In black shirt, dark
trousers and tan shoes He had
dark auburn hair and was smooth
shaven. 1t is believed, from the ap-
pearance, that he was a fireman on
tug or a deckhand on a schooner.
His finger nails were well worn, in
dicating that he was accustomed to
heavy work.
In the absence of Coroner Ferd
Garretson, who is today serving on
the grand jury in New Brunswick,
Recorder Pickersgill was called to
view the body. Lynch telephoned
from the steamboat dock to police
headquarters as soon as he landed,
and the coroner was notified from
there.
From the state OF the body, 1t is
believed that the man was drowned
about three or four days ago The
police have no report of anyone miss
Ing, nor do any. of the boatmen In
the vicinity of the steamboat dock
know of anyone not accounted for.
1t Is believed that the man fell from
boat in mid-stream and being un-
able to swim, was drowned.
Acting Coroner Pickersgill viewed
the remains and helped lift them in
to a wagon from Coroner -Garretson' S
morgue> 1t is now there awaiting
Identification.
