THE MAHOGANY BUSINESS.

H. S. Schoppe of West Auburn, who
for many years has been buyer of ma
hogany for American lumber interests,
and is now in the service of Louisville
Ry.) firm, has just left Auburn for
New Orleans, whence he will sail for
Balize, British Honduras, four days by
steamer from New Orleans. But about
three mahogany trees are to be found to
an acre, he says, in British Honduras.
The trees will produce from SO to 1000
feet of mahogany each. For 18 years
Mr.. Schoppe has been prospecting for
mahogany in Nicaragua and other parts
OF Central America. In Nicaragua he
was required to plant twice as many
trees as he cut, but in British Honduras
there are no restrictions The logs are
cut in IA to IS feet lengths and shipped
by steamer to the States. The trees are
from 80 to so feet high, and the largest
tree that Mr.. Schoppe has encountered
was 20 feet in diameter, because of a
spur on the side, and four Indians were
four days chopping it down. One tree
of rare growth, known as birds-eye
mahogany, sold for $4,000, but this is
exceptional in the history of the trade.
AS high as So, 500 is sometimes paid in
the States for the logs of one tree. The
largest tree that Mr.. Schoppe ever mar
keted scaled 10, 900 feet.

REV. F. A. GILMORE
Pastor of the Unitarian Church in Madison.
Wisconsin.

Pastor of the Unitarian Church in Madison,
Wisconsin.
Wisconsin State Journal December q, 1870
This man, who is 46 today, comes of a
long line of seafaring ancestors and his
birthplace could therefore scarcely be
anywhere else than at Belfast, Maine.
The date was December 27, 1864. His
father had followed the family tradition
and was sea captain, and as soon as the
boy was old enough, which was at the
age of Is, he went to sea. His VOYAGES
for two years took him up and down the
Atlantic coast as far as Florida and he
learned something of the realistic side of
sea life as opposed to the romantic side
which had hitherto appealed to him.
Evidently realism did not appeal to him
so strongly, for he returned to shore life
and entered Colby College, for which he
had been previously fitted by a high
school course. He graduated from the
college in 1890 with the degree of A. B.
and then entered the Harvard school Of
Divinity, graduating from that institu-
ton in 1894 and obtaining at the same
time the degree of A. NJ. from Colby
college. He held a pastorate at Presque
Isle, Maine, for year during his theo-
logical course, and while there was mar
ried to Miss Marian Catchell of Win
throp. They returned together to Har-
ward, where he completed his course and
where upon his graduation Mr.. Gilmore
represented the divinity school in the
commencement exercises. He settled at
Haverhill, Mass, in the same year and
was pastor of the old First Unitarian
church there, which had been founded in
1850. For six years he remained there
and during that time wrote history of
the church which is now among the his
torical collections throughout the coun-
try, one being contained in the Madison
collection. Mr.. Gilmore came to Madi-
son in 1900 and during his residence here
has done much to make his church re-
ligious and moral force of the city. The
church, which was formerly an aided
church, has been placed upon self-sup-
porting basis and new parish house has
been built which will make possible an
enlargement of church activities Mr..
Glmore's literary labors are rather ex-
tensive, and he is the author of guide
book of Madison as we'll as contributor
to the Christian Register, the Unitarian
UNCONVENTIONAL organ. He is also an en-
thusiastic archeologist and has contribut-
ed articles to the Ohio State Archeologi-
cal Journal and was the speaker at the
unwilling of the tablet at Eagle Mound,
Mendoza. The various charities in which
the Madison Unitarian church is doing
most work include the gift of money and
supplies to the city hospital, the support
of pupils in the State deaf and dumb
school and various local charities. There
are four children in the Gilmore home, a
daughter in the High school, and three
sons.

Children Cry
FOR FLETCHER'S
Q a 3 TO RIA
The Prohibitory Law Defended.

J. R. Libby, the we'll known Portland
temperance advocate. recently addressed
large audience in the town hall at Dex-
ter, his subject being "Shall Maine Re-
turn to the License System?"
Mr.. Libby spoke under the auspices of
the W. CT. u, and in his address charg-
ed the Democratic party with entering
into an alliance with the National liquor
association to turn the State over to the
saloon interests. The speaker charged
that the Democratic campaign fund was
furnished by the liquor interests and that
high license in Maine.
Gov. Plaisted came in for severe ar
raignment owing to his reference to the
prohibitory law in his inaugural address
and the speaker predicted that the gov
ernor's statement that he was disguised
with the law would influence the supreme
court judges, the county attorneys and
other officials in their attitude toward
the liquor law.
While the speaker admitted that the
resubmission of the prohibitory law was
sure to come, he urged his hearers to
petition the Republican legislators to
stand by prohibition and refuse to assist
the Democrats in passing the resubmis-
sion bill.
Mr.. Libby predicted that the liquor in
terests are ready to spend 81, 900, 900 or
more in defeating the prohibitory law in
the campaign which will end with spec
ial election next September.
Mr.. Libby called the prohibitory law
good law and one that should remain in
the constitution. He charged that it
was unreasonable and unjust that the
W. c: T. U. and other prohibition socie-
ties should be called upon to enter into a
campaign at this time.
While he admitted that liquor was sold
in Portland, Lewiston, Bangor and other
Maine cities and towns, he stated that it
was necessary to 60 down dark alley
ways and to back doors to obtain it.
Should Maine vote for high license and
local option, Mr.. Libby declared that it
would be only short time before poll
tics in the State would be dominated by
the saloon interests.
