PLAN TO BRING BODIES
FROM THE MAINE HERE
Arrangements Are Being Com.
pIeted for Transfer to
Arlington Cemetery.

In anticipation of the early uncover
ing of the battleship Maine. in the har-
Dor of Havana. arrangements have been
made for the transfer to the Arlington
national cemetery of all the bodies of men,
bers of the crew of the Maine that may
be recovered from the wreck. The naval
collier Leonidas has been sent to Havana
for that purpose. and is now lying near
the wreck. Capt. James D. Tilford of
the quartermaster's department, L. S. A.
is also on the scene to superintend the
transfer of the bodies He will be as
sisted in that work by several under
takers. including Oliver B. Jenkins of
303 Fl street northwest, who left here
yesterday afternoon for Havana.
Owing to the engineering difficulties
attending the pumping out of the cof-
ferdam and the actual uncovering OF the
hull of the Maine, as to permit of a
thorough search of the tangled masses
in the intricate interior, it is not likely
that the search for the bodies can be
completed for several weeks. There is
no reliable data as t. the number of
bodies in the wreck, and the Identified
tion of any bodies that may be found
is regarded practically impossible
Mast to Be Put in Cemetery.
The burial of the bodies at Arlington
was speclaiiy olrecteu Dy congress- anu
will be marked by appropriate mill
tary ceremonies. 1t is expected that
burial will be made near the graves of
their comrades. whose bodies were re-
covered soon after the disaster. That
plot of ground is now marked by beau
tiful monument. The act making ap-
preparation for the recovery of the
Maine provided also that the mast of
the Inflated warship be erected in
Arlington. That relic also will be
brought to this city on the Leonidas.

one. the present situation has decided
advantages. Furthermore. a forest large
ly composed of young growth can be
purchased at a much more reasonable
price than one containing timber of mer-
chantable size
THE probable cost of these lands can
only he approximated. The average for
the woodlands exclusive of timber would
probably not exceed $40 an acre. The
value of the merchantable timber based
on the average stand for the entire area
is approximately ST. an acre, giving an
average of S26 per acre for the land and
timber. Some of the land can be pur-
chased for much less than this, while
some, if included, will cost more. depend
ing upon location and the value of the
timber thereon

A national forest for Washington. The
creation of a spacious tract of wooded
land adjacent to the National Capital,
an idea conceived and earnestly advo-
Gated by William NJ. Ellicott of Balti-
more. is meeting with more and more
favor, and those interested In the project
have become encouraged to believe that
public sentiment is crystallizing in
such a manner that the vast park may
become a reality.
Authorities In forestry already have
pronounced the plan to be practicable,
and many men Of affairs have come to
realize the desirability of the construc-
tion Of such fitting background. worthy
of the dignity of the nations seat of
government.
Views of Thomas Nelson Page.
Thomas Nelson Page, commenting on
Mr.. Ellicotts proposition, said, in a let
ter to the author:
Your paper on a national forest ad-
jacent to the city of Washington ad-
vocates in clear and striking manner
what I think would be an admirable
measure if 1t could be carried through,
and l shall be glad to lend such little
aid as l can toward promoting the idea
Unless the project shall be carried
through within reasonable time there
will not be much forest about Washing
ton left to preserve. Twenty years ago.

was surrounded with the most beautiful
oak forest, nearly all of which has

Maryland. taken from the surveys. maps
and data in the Maryland forestry de-
partment, deals in an interesting man.

Besley states the area proposed for Il
national forest represents some of the
oldest settled lands of the country, in
which since its occupation $50 years
ago. many changes have taken place.
He says, further:
"A considerable portion of the land
under cultivation prior to the civil war
has since grown up in forest not alone
because of the scarcity of labor neces-
sary for its continued cultivation, but
because much of 1t was found better suit

Virgin Forests Remain.

These young forests of hardwood and
pine coming as a second growth have
attained considerable Importance, and by
proper management they can he nodded
into forests of great value. There are
still to be found in small tracts some Of
the virgin forests showing the magnifi-
cence of the original growth and further
illustrating future forest possibilities.
For the botanist and dendrologist. this
is one of the most interesting regions of
the eastern United States. Here on the
border Of two great Photographed di-
visions, the coastal plain and the Pied
mont plateau. the fiora of the north
a variety of species difficult to find in
any other area of equal size. AS a.
natural aboretum this region is unsur-
passed There are over sixty-five tree
species alone. to say nothing of a large
number of abOrescent shrubs. Most of
the valuable commercial species Of the
entire United States are represented here.
TIE great diversity of soils and forest
types offers exceptional advantages as a
demonstration field for applied forestry.
I'm establishing a national forest such
as is proposed 1t is very desirable to
include. as far as possible. lands that
are now largely wooded. The large wood
ed areas lying between Washington Bal
timore and Annapolis afford a rare OPP
portunity for carrying out such a plan.
OlucTcuCcS NOlGus
THE forests differ in character and
composition. dependent upon soil condi-
| tions. especially to moisture content,
and also dependent upon the extent of
previous cutting. On the few high gravel
| ridges along the edge OF the Piedmont
plateau the characteristic species are
rock. post and black oaks The higher
slopes generally throughout the area are

and chestnut while on the lower slopes
are found hickory, white oak and yellow

predominating trees. Along the streams

notably the maple, sycamore beech, ash,

Charles X Hamilton

Charles K Hamilton one of the most
prominent among American aviators.
was born in New Britain. Conn, May 2.
1881. He became Interested in aero
nautics about the time he became of
age and soon afterward he made several
towed flights on Israel Ludlows man
earring kite aeroplanes Then he be-
came we'll known as an operator of the
small American dirigible balloon. He
gave exhibitions in Japan and on the
same day Bleriot crossed the English
Channel the Aerican aviator crossed the
Bay of Osaki. Upon his return TO
America Mr.. Hamilton turned his at
tention to the aeroplane and was soon
making record flights on the Curtiss
machine. Exhibitions at various place
in the West were followed by his aero
plane flight from New York to Phila 3.
delphia, which was the browning feat
of his career. and up to that time the
most remarkable flight in the history of
aviation.
