French Forest-Making.

A striking example of scientific for
estry is furnished by the coast of
France, chiefly in Gascony, where in
1898 tree-planting was begun in an at
tempt to fix the sand dunes, which the
winds were steadily pushing inland
over the vineyards. Pine forests have
now covered 275,0OO of the 350,0OO
acres of dunes About $2,000.000 has
been spent on the work, with 100000
more for forest administration, but
the state has received $4,000 more
than the cost, while the 125.000 acres
still retained have a value Of s10,000,-
900. Farther inland, about 100000
acres of worthless shifting sands and
marshes, in the triangular area Of the
Landes, have been converted into
profitable pine forests since the mid
Ole Of last century. This work, most
" done by the communes, has created
a property worth $10O,000,000, as val
ued from the present yield of pine
timber and resin.

RECEPTION TO THE PASTOR.
Address of Welcome, Music, and
Other Addresses.

The congregation of Miles Memoir
ial c. NJ E. Church did honor to the
pastor. DR.. L. z. B. Rosser. by giving
a reception at the church, Third Street,
between New York Avenue and L
Street, which welcomed his return to
the pastorate for the fifth year. The
celebration of this event was preceded
by a literary program, which was very
impressive. Invocation was offered by
Rev. S, H. Sterling, invoking the guild
ance of the Deity to all who came to
do honor to the occasion.
The welcome address was delivered
by Mr. J. F. Gems, which was pro
found and inspiring. pointing out in a
minute way some of the noble work
accomplished by the pastor. from a
financial point of view as well as spir-
itual The speaker proved BY figures
that DR.. Rosser had proven himself

tinancier the church has known as a
pastor. He showed how successf,,I11,
he I lRosser) had steered the ship over
the hlgh waves OF disappointments and
besetments and landed safe in the har-
Dor OF the fifth milestone. Tie re-
spOnse to this address was made bv
Rev W. NJ. Tautray, who made quite
a timely talk along the line of leader
ship, IN which he styled DR.. Rosser
the real Moses, to the extent that he
successfully leads his people.
These eulogistic expressions were
interspersed by solos and duets by
Miss Emily High, the Craig sisters
and others.
Miss A. d. Bell read a paper, The
Pastors Career" in which she paid
high tribute to DR.. Rosser as a high
toned Christian gentleman, congenial,
attable, and a pulpit orator Of no mean
repute, qualities and requirements that
has brought success to Miles Me
mortal.
We were very highly entertained by
an address by Judge E NJ Hulet, who
paid high tribute to DR.. Rosser as a
polished Christian gentleman, carrying
out the mandates OF a five years pre-
diction, made by himself, viz, DR..
Rosser will have a successful admins
tratiOn. He admonished us to follow
a leader whose traits Of character are
noble and who practices what he
breaches.
Mr.. Hulet is a leader of men and a
Christian gentlemaa, a lover of his
race, and loves to represent his people
in church or state.
Mrs. Matte Rosser, the wife of DR..
Rosser, IS in the city again, and IN
very eloquent speech pledged herself
to the upbuilding and we'll being of
the church. Her presence in our
church bespeaks greater achievements
for the church. The pastor, in a hui
morous way, closed this part of the
program, and the master of ceremo-
MES, Rev. Charles H. Posey, directed
that all persons resort to the lecture
room where awaited a table laden with
all the delicaCies of the season.
DR.. Rosser is a great preacher, and
is at his best at the eleven o'clock ser
vices. You should hear him. Since his
return from Augusta, Ga, as a dele
gate to the General Conference, he has
taken fresh courage.

KING EDWARDS CONDITION.
CONTINUED from Page ~

former American president at lun-
cheon or at dinner.
This hesitation had aroused spec
ulation and ruymor that the king
would avoid a meeting with the col
onel. The rumor was authoritative
ly denied.
Queen Alexandra, who has been
almost constantly in attendance on
the king, is worn out with her long
vigils at the bedside. She was
slightly Ill when she returned from
her Mediterranean cruise but in
spite of this, she sat up throughout
the night.
The queen retired today after she
had exacted a promise that she be
called at once should the kings con-
dition take turn for the worse.
The present illness of the king
overlook him Monday, although he
has been constantly indisposed since
last January.
A month ago Edward expressed a
desire to journey to Biarritz, his
usual place of refuge when sickness
or poor health attacks him.
The trip was taken but it did not
bring, the expected relief, Although
the physical resistance of the king
had been depleted by gradual fail
ing health, it is believed that the
present political crisis in England IS
mainly responsible for his collapse.
The king overtaxed himself in try
ing to unite warning factions of the
government and his partial failure
is believed to have been caused by
the worry which weakened his con-
stitution and brought about a physi-
cal breakdown.
The real seriousness of the con-
dition of King Edward was indi-
Gated this afternoon when a rumor
credited to a news agency, stated
that the king was dead. The re-
port caused excitement at the pal
ace. oficials promptly denied the
rumor.
The archbishop of Canterbury,
Lord Suffield and Colonel Seely were
admitted to the kings room for
few minutes this afternoon.
Upon emerging they refused to
discuss the kings condition but
their countenances were sad.
George, Pdince of Wales, did not
leave the palace all day.

COUNTY COURT
GRINDING ON
REGULAR GRIST

The county court convened this
morning and in addition to consider
ing the regular routine business it
also considered variety of other
matters of more or less general in
terest and Importance.
Several road petitions were pre-
sented to the board for action, and
they were discussed at length. One
of them was the Iver Christensen
road in Road District No. 16 and
against the, construction of which
remonstrance has been fled The
signers of the remonstrance contend
that the construction of the road as
petitioned for would do great deal
of damage to certain individuals
and that generally it would not
serve as a public benefit. The petit
toners for the road on the other
hand contended that it will be of a
great public benefit and are insist
ent that the court grant the petition.
Many Plats for Additions.
In addition to the road matters
there were also presented to the
court a number Of plats for addi-
tions to towns in the county and
plats for the establishment of fruit
tracts. Among them may be men
toned Dungan's addition to the
town of Jefferson; Geiser's addition
to the town of Silverton; plats for
the Mcdonald fruit tracts; Wise
Acre fruit tracts and Strong & Riggs
fruit tracts.
To Increase Voting Precinct.
Another matter considered is the
new territory lying east of the city
and which was made a part of it by
an election recently held. This ter
ritory prior to it's annexation was in
the East Salem voting precinct but

COUSIN KATE
HERE TONIGHT

Perhaps one reason why James
Russell is clever in the part Of
cousin Kate, in which she is star
ing this season, and will be seen at
the Grand Theatre on Friday night,
May 6, is that Kate Of the play is.a
novelist, and Miss Russell besides be-
ing an actress is a writer Of no small
ability. Some Of her sketches are
now making tremendous In vaude-
Vile, chief OF which are "a Lesson in
Whist" and "a Tail Of a Turkey"
Her latest work, "Emanuellay a
three act comedy. Is soon to be pro-
duced by Mr.. Charles Frohman. She
has attained considerable fame as
short story writer, therefore, It is not
surprising that Cousin Kate" should
come natural to her, and It is doubt
full If the country could be searched
and any one found who would be
more suitable to the role.
