100000 ACRES MORE ~
LAND FOR H0MESTEADERS

More than 1000, 900 acres Of the pub
lie lands which were included in the for
est domain have been thrown out anc
will be available for homestead set le
ment'by.. action CT President Taft when
he approved plans for the reclassifca-
ton Of forest lands which we're fcrmu-
lated by Clifford Pinchot.
II has been found that millions Of
acres Of land which were tillable were
being held back unintentionally in the
forest domain In the state of Idaho
alone more than 400, 600 acres were so
included. The plans for the elimination
Of these lands were formed by Mr.
Pinchot and started last summer.
The elimination is not yet complete,
and three tenths-of the total public for
ests are yet to be reciassified. II is i'm
possible to estimate how much move
land win be available for settlement
when the recassfcation Is complete.
1t cannot be stated at this time what
withdrawals will be made from the pub
lie lands for forest purposes in accord
ance with the policy Of classification.
The subject Is under consideration and
lands best adapted to forest purposes
will be added to the national forests,
but the matter has not reached con
crete form. The great area, it was
which would be eliminated
from the forests, is scattered Throughout
the reserves. Tracts in tire interior of
the forests and much land along the
edges will be lifted out Of the confines

greater exactness the boundaries of the
orcsts.
Some land eliminated is suitable for
Try farming, though the greater part

uitable for tilling and grazing than

laced TO profitable use instead of lying |

LIKE A MEDIEVAL CASTLE
Prof. Carr Gives His Impression Of
the University Of Missouri.

Prof. Carr Gives His Impression OF
the University Of Missouri.
Prof. NJ. C. Carr, an instructor in
the department of art, who has spent
many years abroad was asked to write
his impressions of the University and
Columbia. Prof. Carr is an English
man who only recently came to this
country. Here is what he wrote for
the University Missourian:
"You wish me to give you my i'm
pressions of Columbia-something l
see in it which perhaps you do not
see. Well, l am not newspaper
man, so if I miss your point don't
blame me. Here is my point:
Columbia, and by Columbia l mean
the University, is like Medieval
Castle, lifting it's towers to the sky.
and sheltering within its walls all
the beauty of Art and the nobility of
Science, while bidding the wisest and
best in the land to dwell within its
walls.
"The welcome it gives to thousands
of disciples, coming from cities filled
with the ruthless fight for material
advantage, is restful and dignifed. The
beauty and simplicity of the Univer-
sity grounds must greatly impress
every newcomer, and the steady, quiet
roads with their white houses peeping
out between the trees, seem to invite
one to stay.
Considering tbs newness and archi-
tectural crudeness of the Middle West
it cannot but strike one what charm
is contained in the excellently planned
buildings which rise on each side OF
the quadrangle.
Directly to the south, Academic
Hall rises as a fitting background to
the six Ionic columns, or is it that the
columns merely form unique fore
ground which to view the rising mass
of the hall crowned by its dome?
Here at all events is peace and
quiet, disturbed only by the passing
Of those who seek knowledge. It
seems in fitting harmony that the en-
ergies which stir the air enclosed by
these buildings SO vinegrown and
calm, should have no taste Of the mod
ern money market about them. but
rather, to reflect only the highest
ideals of the mind"

An unpreiudieed Juror.

In a southern county of Missouri
years ago, when the form of question
ling was slightly different from now,
much trouble was experienced in get
ting jury in murder trial.
Finally an old fellow answered every
question satisfactorily; he had no pre-
judices, was not opposed to capital
punishment, and was generally con-
sidered valuable find. Then the pros
|ecutor said solemnly:
Juror. look upon the prisoner; pris-
oner, look upon the juror"
The old man adjusted his spectacles
and peered at the prisoner for a full
half minute. Then, turning to the
court, he said:

Imposing on a Passenger.

j. Adam Bede Of Minnesota, the hu-
morist of the House, while he was in
it, and whose humor still bubbles, de-
spite the fact that he was elected to
stay at home, tells the following on a
friend OF his, who travels for a carpet
firm:
"My friend" said Bede, ''is of a saw
ing disposition, and he recently had to
make longish jaunt with two trunks.
Arriving at the station, he approached
stranger standing on the platform
and said: Are you going to Chicago
on this train?"
81 am"
Have you any baggage?"
"No.''
well. friend, you can do me favor,
and it won't cost you a cent. I've got
two good-sized trunks here and they al.
ways make me pay excess for one.
You can get one checked on your ticket
and save me some money"

Miss Nixon Wins a Prize.

The New York City Evening Tele.
gram of Saturday, April 18th, contains
a picture of Miss LILLIAN E. Nixon
daughter of Mr. and Mrs. r. NJ. Nixon
of this city, and after mentioning the
fact that Miss Nixon had won a $50
prize for short story printed in the
Telegram the day previous, says
Miss Nixon is not writer by profess
,ou or 10y avocation She is teacher,
and that work has seemed to her so far
to be as great or greater than any
other that she might be fitted for. She
taught for three years IN the University
of Minnesota, where she was graduated
with the degree of M. A. before she
came to New York Here she continued
her teaching IN st. Agatha's Academy,
while at the same time taking B. A.
and Phi. d. course in Columbia Uni
versity. Sh.- is still pursuing her
studies in Columbia, and literature is
one of her chief delights.
Though she had never published any
fiction before she wrote The Way of
the Transgressor," published in Fri
days Evening Telegram, Miss Nixon
admits that Il literary career has so
appealed to her that already she has
done considerable work on novel that
she hopes to have published some day.
