OUR FOREST RESERVATIONS.

In the list showing the area of
state forestry reservations, Potter
and Clinton counties are by far the
largest The area of state forestry
lands at the beginning of the pres
ent year was nearly $4,000 acres.
The area has been slightly increased
since then, as purchases of addition
al land were authorized at practical
ly each one of the monthly meetings
of the state forestry reservation com
mission.
The forestry reservations are dis
tributed through 26 counties, by far
the greater portion of the land being
in the Susquehanna valley. Not all
of the forestry reservations are forest
land, strictly speaking, for some of
the ground has been burned over so
frequently that it is bare of timber.
All of the ground is naturally forest
land, however, and well adapted to
such purposes, and where bare acres
exist they are being reforested as
speedily as possible, through the aid
of the several state nurseries.
The following table shows the area

APPRECIATIVE COMMENT
Chairman Griscom Says Governors
Elevation Will Be a Loss to the
Republican Party.

New York, April &c. - Timothy L.
Woodruff, chairman Of the Republi-
can state committee, refused to COM
lnent on the decision of Governor
Hughes to accept a supreme court
iusticeship.
Chairman Griscom of the Republi-
can county committee said: "Of
course this takes the governor out
of politics. That will mean a great
loss to the Republican party, Be-
cause of his great public work, Gov
ernor Hughes deserved this elevation
to the highest court in the land"
Otto r. Barnard, the Republican
candidate for mayor last year, said:
mo better appointment could have
been made and it will not only
strengthen the United States supreme
court but will increase the confidence
in that court. At the same time it
does seem too bad that Governor
Hughes has determined to take him
self out of active work in the future
for the Republican party"
Ex-Justice Hatch of the appellate
division, a Republican and partner
pf Alton b. Parker, said: "The coun'
try is to be congratulated on the ap-
polntment of Governor Hughes. He
will not be subservient to any one
or to any influence"

CHANGE OF VENUE FOR ALL
5lakeley viii Take Graft Gases Else
where If Juries Continue Bad

Pittsburg, April 26. - Jury condi-
tions have upset the program of the
district attorney to the serious extent
that it may be necessary to secure a
change OF venue in many of the re-
naming graft cases to be tried.
Iro"' ess from now on depends al
together on the estimate placed upon
juries by the Office of the district at
torney. If it becomes apparent that
il is impossible to secure IL men who
can agree upon a verdict, then change
of venue will be asked in all cases.
No more time will be wasted trying
cases before juries which, in the opin-
ion of the district attorney, are so con-
stituted that agreement is impossible,
regardless of what testimony and evi.
dence is offered in trial.
The district attorneys allegations
that a large sum of money has been
contributed for the defense of graft
crs also enters into the plans for try
ing the cases outside of Allegheny
county. Should Mr.. Blakeley be sat
lsfed in his own mind that it is i'm
possible TO pick 12 men who can be
brought to agreement by evidence in
court, he will ask, with his petition
for change of venue, that the court
withhold the place of trial until a
few days before the case is called, so
that the jury panel in those counties
cannot be tampered with.
1t is expected that these plans will
meet with storm of opposition on the
part of those yet to be tried. One of
the arguments advanced agains
general change Of venue will be the
increased cost of trying cases.
Another result of the charges of
jury-fxing will be move for new
legislation governing the selection of
jurymen, which is expected to be
made at the next session of legisla-
ture.

MARK TWAIN At REST
Buried InWoodIaWn, Elmira, Be
side Wife and Children.

Service Sunday Afternoon at the
House Of General Langdon, His
Brother.In-Law, Was Simple - The
Clergyman Prayed That the Light
Of Him Whose Body Was Now With
out Its Soul Shine For All Time
Through His Works.
While the rain fell copiously the
Rev. Samuel Eastman read passages
of Scripture at the bier of Samuel l..
Clemens Sunday afternoon in the
house of General Charles j. Iangdon
at Elmira, where the remains were
taken on their arrival. The house
was filed by important citizens who
had known Mark Twain in life. Gen
eral Langdon's sister was the late
Mrs. Clemens. There was no music.
The service, which began at $3.50
o'clock, continued until and then
the friends passed out, viewing the
remains which reposed in the parlor.
The services at the house were sim
pie. Just before the hour of the fu-
neral there arrived large floral design
with the following card attached:
From five hundred boys of Louis
vile, KY, male school, in remem-
brance of Samuel L. Clemens, who has
frightened their lives with innocent
laughter and taught them squareness
and grit and compassion for their
weak charges"
The clergyman prayed that the light
of him whose body was now without
its soul shine for all time through his
works. Mark Twain's final earthly
resting place was beside his lamented
wife.
On the grave of the beloved wife
of the late author these words, die
tated by him who adored her, are in
scribed in the stone marker: "In this
grave repose the ashes Of Olivia Lang
don, the beloved wife of Samuel l.
Clemens, who reverently raised this
stone to her memory. Elmira, N. Y,
Nov. 27, 1S45, Florence, Italy, June 5,
1904, Gott SIR dir gnadig on meme
wonne."
Adjoining the Langdon home, in
Winsner park, there stands a statue
of Thomas X. Beecher, brother of
Henry Ward Beecher. Mr.. Beecher
and Mark Twain were staunch friends.
1t was suggested today that a statue
of Mark Twain opposite the lamented
Beecher would be Elmira's fitting
tribute to Mr.. Clemens.

SOME IRREGULARITIES

Found by Superintendent In the Dutch
ess Insurance Co.
State Superintendent of Insurance
Hotchkiss gave out statement OF an
examination into the affairs of the
Duchess Fire Insurance company and
of its predecessor, the Duchess In
surance company, in which he finds
irregularities in the management OF
the latter company, which prior to
1907 had been ofhcered by the same
persons and did business from the
principal office of the Duchess Fire
Insurance company, which has been
seriously impaired by the San Fran
cisco conflagration.
Superintendent Hotchkiss said when
he gave out the statement: "The pres
ent company (Dutchess Fire lnsur'
ance company so far as we know is
solvent, but the directors of the old
company are pretty seriously in
volved."
"Is the situation such as to call for
action outside of the insurance de-
partment?" he was asked.
81 leave that for others to judge,
replied Mr.. Hotchkiss
The examination of the affairs OF
the Duchess Fire Insurance company
was begun by the state insurance de
partment on March 81. 1t is still In
progress and will not be completed
for a week or ten dave

NOT ALWAYS FRESH
vassar Graduates Object to Imitation
of College Seal on Candy Boxes.

Vassar college graduates object to
any suggestion that its students are
always fresh" or that they wear NOR
tar boards; allegations to this effect
are set forth in a suit filed in the
United States court here which seeks
to restrain the Loose-Wiles Biscuit
Co. from using the word "Vassar" on
certain brand of chocolates.
The official corporate seal of the
college has been initiated on the ad-
vertisement placed on the candy
boxes. On the face of the seal is re-
produced a woman with book and a
sprig of myrtle. In the background
is a Greek temple. Over all at the
top on the rim or the edge are words
"Vassar chocolates" substituted for
Vassar college.
At the bottom under female figure
where on the official seal purity and
wisdom" should be, the defendants
have placed the words always fresh. "
Quoting from the complaint, "The
words always fresh seem on the ficti-
tious seal to be applicable to the fe-
male figure above it and is matter
OF ridicule and reproach."
