Government viii Buy White Mountain
Lands Direct.

Washington, D. c., Nov. 9.-Efforts by
land spectators to charge the govern
ment more for land desired for national
forests in the Appalachian and White
mountains than the land is worth viii be
met by refusal to consider such offers,
according to Secretary of Agriculture
Wilson. No lands will be examined or
recommended for purchase, he declared,
on which options have been obtained for
the purpose of selling to the government
at profit.
The Weeks law, passed last Febru-
ary, during the closing days of the sixty
first Congress, provides 100000 a
wear until 1915 for the purchase of APP
palachian and White mountain timber
lands. More than 100000 acres have
been offered, of which more than 100000
have been examined and agreements al.
ready have been reached with owners
of 100000 acres,
The secretary said yesterday the de-
partment desires to deal directly with
the owners rather than with others who
have obtained options. Only lands will
be bought which geological survey ex-
aminations now being made show will
promote or protect the navigation of the
streams in which watersheds they lie.

enty were able to pass the century
mark, thus obtaining one of the watch
fobs offered by the STAR to those who
roll scores of 100 or better. Both the
clever ones got tallies of 102, and both
turned the trick In spite Of being hand
icapped by a miss apiece. Joseph

modification. Then came the Happy

did fairly well. but Evers, who rolled
a score OF 8, was not in that class.
Then the Tuesday Nights had their
innings. Bernard's tally Of 1o2 fur
nished the feature. but Dremel IN in
for considerable attention for, after
hitting the headpin eleven times
straight for a score of 80, he found
that he needed a strike for a fob. This
fact seemed to upset him somewhat.
for he missed the head-pin on the
last try and finished with a score OF
80. Gotthard, with one miss, had 81.
The Tuesday Night c team went on
with the Montclair quintet. F1nnigan
rolled a score of 98. He had a miss In
the third game, but ran his score up
to 80 In the eleventh BOX. Then, with a
strike needed. he got eight pins on a
good hit. Ten Eyck had two misses
and rolled 30. Bien, with a pair Of err
