Count ToIstoi's Tragedy.

The suggestion of a failing mental
ity is quite generally accepted in cx-
PLANTATION of Count Leo Tolstoi's
mysterious disappearance 1t is a sad
tragedy at the close of the career of
the famous Russian novelist and So
cial reformer. 1t has made a painful
impression in the reading public. That
TolStoi should desire to spend the last
days of his life in solitude surprises no
one who has watched his career, but
that he should desert his wife, who
had borne him nine children, is diff
cult of belief. even in the light OF his
wcll-known ecccntricitics. 1t is re-
ported that the countess has more
than once attempted to end her life
since the sudden lcave-taiihg of her
aged husband, but this is probably an
eXaGgcration of excited servants, who
are watching the lady in her distress
of mind.
In whatever light we may look at it
il is Il pitiablc condition for these aged
people who have devoted much of
their lives to the welfare Of til, poor
in the darkest districts of Russia 1t
is believed that Count Tolstoi pro.
cecded to an old monastery in the gov
eminent Of kaluga. In letter which
the count left for his wife. he wrote:
Il cannot continue longer to live sur
rounded by luxury, and, like many
other old men, l retire from the world
to complete my life in solitude.
ask that you do not seek my place of
SoJourn. and that YOU do not come to
it if 1t is discovered. | beg forgive
ness for the grief that l may cause
You"
The fortunes of mind OF the aged
countess may easily be imagined,
when 1t is remembered that she re-
tains all her faculties and full realizes
the mental condition of the count. For
years, the novelist has lived as a
peasant. while his family occupied a
substantial mansion. he dwelt in a
peasants hut partaking only of SIM
pie food and wearing rough cos
tune. OF late. he has had FREQUENT
falnting spells, and that he may be in
some rough place where he will not be
properly cared for is the thought
which bears most heavily upon the
countess

Save the Forests.

The causes and prevention of forest
fires are to be discussed at the Lake
States forest fires conference at st.
Paul, Dec. O.. 1t is to be hoped some
we'll defined plan will be reached for
the prevention of future destruction of
life and property. Investigations al
WAYS follow such disasters as occurred
this year and it is quite probable that
the discussion will become somewhat
heated over the cause. Recently it
was charged that that blaze which
destroyed Spoonsr and Baudette,
Mimi, and laid in waste thousands of
acres of land, was caused by sparks
from locomotive on Canadian rail-
road This was vehemently denied
by officials of the railroad, who in
turn claimed the settlers themselves
were to blame. 1t is expected that
this most recent of fires will be thor
oughly probed at the coming confer
ence and there is a chance that the
responsibility for it will be fixed.
The governors of Minnesota, Wis
consin and Michigan are to be pres
ent and address the conference. Some
Of the subjects will be The States
Duty in the Preservation of It's For
ests," "Michigans Forest Policy"
What the Forests Mean to the Peo-
pie" What the Forest Service Does
to Prevent Fires" The Forest Fire
Patrol System of the Western States.
Forest Protection in Canada" why
Our Forests Burn" Forest Protec-
tive Legislation Proposed by the State
|of Wisconsin," "Minnesota's Forest
Fire Warden System" THE Interest of
the Railroads in Protecting the For
csts," The Interest of the Lumber
men in Forest Fire Protection" Legal
Questions Involved in Forest Fire
Laws" Fire Protection on the Min
nesota State Reservations" etc.
Without doubt talk will be volumi-
nous but if the conference does not
result in some practical step it will be
useless. There is no questioning the
fact that many fires are caused by
neglect of railroads to clear their
right of way. They should also be
compelled to use spark arresters, or
oil should be burned in locomotives
J that run through the forest regions
Camp fires are another prolific source
Of disaster in the forest regions, and
campers must eventually be restricted
and held accountable from early
spring to late fall. The fire warden
system may be enlarged and improved
upon, but no save-at- the spigot policy
will prevent the recurrence of disas-
trouS forest conflagrations
