so SADIE CAME BACK
STORY OF THE FAMILY HORSE,
 ONCE DISCARDED.
Battered, Lame and Starving, the Old Pet Was Recovered From the Peddler for the Plying
 Children.

Its Sadiel" shrieked the children. -Oh, papa, it's Sadiel"
 Attached to a heavy wagon. scared and battered. and with high bones projecting about the hips. yellowish horse. blind in one eye. swelling on one pastern, and a pronounced limp in a forefoot. wearily plodding along the street. and on the rusty wagon a man in a dirty sweater yelled something that might have been the word coal, :" since the wagon was loaded with fuel.
 -Oh. papa. it's Sadiel"
 The man took one look and saw that it was so Sadie. once the pet of the children and sold because of grow ing infirmities and increasing age. had seemingly not improved.
 "Oh. papaI" There was that in the three young voices that made the father think swiftly. He remembe how the children had wept when Sadie had gone and how he had hard ened his heart because the old horse was so utterly worthless and such an eyesore.
 Don't she look ba-ad? ?" the little boy asked in an awed tone. The two little girls broke into muf1ed sobs. The father could stand no more. He signaled to the driver, who pulled up the old mare at the curb.
 "Coal?" he asked. sneeringly. taking stock of the man before him.
 What value do you place oh that horse?" the father asked briefly. The driver stared at him and winked openly.
 She's worth a hundred dollars to me- he said My wife's that attached to her" The father turned away. the children followed silently in view of the look on his face. He had sold SadiG for $15, and had been glad to after him.
 Say, mister!" he shouted, maybe we can trade. What'n you give me for herr" The father turned.
 'I owned that horse once," he said in a tone that made the driver gasp. he had looked so mild. q sold her for S15. and she was worth ten. I'll give you s25 for her, spot cash. Take it or leave it."
 "Lemme drive my wagon to the yard?" the man asked, shrewdly.
 Pull it yourself" said the father sharply, noting a raw spot on the old mares neck.
 That goes," said the driver, clam bering down. ''Lemme see your money" Then he signed a receipt the father scribbled on a leaf of his notebook, threw the patched harness into the wagon, and disappeared. drag ging 1t after him.

It is a significant fact however. that Taunton. which was originally known by the Indian name of Cohannet, was spared the narrowing details of the war. but whether 1t was because of the treaty or because of the fact that the town with its surroundings had been the special hunting ground of King Philip, was never known.

 The turpentining of pine timber be- gan in New England with the pitch" :" or yellow pine, of that region, but 1t was in North Carolina that the first extensive development of the naval stores industry occurred. The records show that from 1768 to TITO the av- craze exports of naval stores to Eng land included 88,111 barrels of crude turpentine, 20,646 barrels of pitch and SS,366 barrels of tar. Most of the crude was shipped to England for dis tillation through the ports of Will mington and Newborn.
 The supplanting of the iron retort by the copper still in 1894 greatly increased the output of volatile oil and gave much impetus to the indus try. However, previous to 1S44 not over one-half of the production in North Carolina was distilled at home. Then, because of the poor market for resin, the stills were transferred from

the ports to the woods. and a heavy onslaught upon long-leaf pine forests of the south began.
 North Carolina reached it's maxi mum in naval stores production in 1879-80, with an exportation of 6,279-, 250 gallons of turpentine, and 663, ,967 barrels of resin. A comparison of this great exportation with total pro- duction in North Carolina in 1908 of 7S2,000 gallons of turpentine and 131,- 800 barrels of rosin tells the story of the exhaustion of the long-leaf pine in that state. South Carolina attained It's maximum output of naval stores in 1882, only two years after that of North Carolina. The invasion of new forests of virgin timber brought Geor- gia to the front few years later, but

Years ago when the Panhandle" rail road was in course of construction its progress was a matter of great inter est to the people of the region, says the Youths Companion. A farmer who sold provisions to the contractors often reached the place where the men were at work at meal time. He was greatly impressed at their voracity. The work was hard and when the din- ner bell rang every man made dash for the table and before one could be- neve 1t possible the food had disap- peared. One day a workman on his way to the table tripped on the root of a tree and fell. He lay quite still, making no attempt to rise The farm CT rushed to him in great concern Are you badly hurt?" he asked ''No." answered the man. Well. why don't you get up and go to dinner?"

 Yet the fact that alreaedy one-sev- enth of the entire output of naval stores is by those methods, and that in the newer fields and most up-to- date operations they are used most largely demonstrates that they have passed far beyond the experimental stage.

CUNNINGHAM CASE
DISTURBS FISHER

Complications have developed in con-

coal lands in Alaska that may further
delay action by the Secretary of the In
terror in this famous case The law
board of the General Land Office is di-
vided on the question as to whether
the testimony shows that the persons
who filed on the Cunningham claims
were guilty of attempted frauds on the
government
In the face of this difference of opinion

is undecided as to what recommendation
he shall make in the case to the Secre-
tary of the Interior. The facts will be
laid before Walter l.. Fisher. who will

have the case go to Secretary Fisher
with the recommendation that patents be
issued with a statement in the record

Cunningham claims. Action in such cir

WANT PHILIPPINE
STATUS DEFINED
Democratic House May Vote
Upon the Question.

Philippine independence is the latest
feature Of legislation to be suggested for
the consideration of Congress during the
extra session.
A number of Democrats who haze been
watching the contest of Representative
Martin. of Colorado. to obtain a con-
demnation of the policy of disposins Of
large tracts of friar lands to individuals
and corporations freely predict that his
efforts are leading up to the introduction
of a resolution dealing with the much
discussed attitude of this country in
regard to the islands. 1t will come. they
say. in a form which the Democratic
majority of the House cannot evade. and
1t will not result in harm.
VIII Lead to Revolution.
Although the Committee on Insular
Affairs of the House has voted to reject
Mr.. Martins contention that there has
been wrongdoing on the part of the Off
cials of the Philippine government. its
report contains statements as to the in
adequacy and ambiguity of the public
land laws of the Philippines which have
given the ColOradoan a loophole for a
further onslaught. Bills to amend these
laws are being prepared by Representa-
gestiOns contained in the report. 1t is
predicted that their discussion will lead
invariably to the introduction Of an in
dependent resolution. The Colorado Rep
reSentatve himself. ii is said, is already
receiving representations and experience
ing pressure from several quarters il. re-
gard to the introduction of a resUlu-
ton.
1t is not denied that the Anti-Imperial-
ISL T.aaa7la ha
possibly afforded by the installation of a
Democratic House and the existence in
the Senate of a coterie Of Republicans
which does not disdain to vote with
the Democrats on various questions II
is pushing the campaign. Outside Of this
quarter. however, tAere is said to be a
force of even greater strength which
can be counted upon to back apy effort
to secure an expression, at least, con-
cerning the Independence of the Philip
pines. and this comes from no less Il
source than the Philippine government
itself.
1t is known that certain American Of
ficials of the insular government who
are in this country would gladly welcome
the introduction and consideration of an
independence resolution for the settling
effect it would have on the politics of
the islands They point out that the
question of independence is continually
predominant in the Philippines, and that
no campaign is free from its discussion
The campaigns of candidates for the leg
islative assembly. they say. almost in
variably turn on their attitude as to the
freedom of the islands from American
rule, and the constant agitation on and
the continual holding out Of hope by
those who are elected to the assembly
rs having a detrimental effect on the
welfare of the country. Political quiet
will Immediately reign in the islands as
a result of the settlement of the ques-
ton by Congress, and the commercial
prosperity. which has had its beginning
recently, will go forward by leaps and
bounds.
