JANUARY'S PAPER OUTPUT.
Very Heavy Movement Of the News
Print Grade During the Month.

A very heavy movement of news print
paper. with a moderate decrease In stocks
on hand. is the feature of the January
statistics of the American Paper and Pulp
Association. as filed with the commits
sioner of corporations The months pro-
duction was 100, 163 tons. an increase of
1914 tons. Shipments were 40, 122 tons.
an increase of $50 tons. Stocks on hand
were :6.303 tons. as against 27,640 tons
at the close of December. 1911
The increase in production was partly
due TO the fact that January included
twenty-seven working days, the actual
output per day being fifty-nine tons less
than for December, at 1903 tons. The re-
turns cover iifty-one companies.
There was heavy increase in the pro-
duction of book paper i'll January, and
shipments also were large, but not suffi-
cient TO prevent an increase of nearly
200 tons in stocks.
Stocks of most other grades showed
moderate increases.

On a Lasting Strike.

A man in rags, who proved to be OF
good family and once a barrister at
the court of Marseilles, was arrested
in Paris the other morning for being
without visible means of support.
"Why don't O work." he was asked
by the magistrate. II do not like
work" was the ingenious reply. The
prisoner went on to say that although
he was a lawyer in a good position,
social obligations and the necessity OF
wearing good clothes became irksome
to him twenty years ago. He left Mar
settles, his family, his friends. and re-
s%pectability to tramp the roads OF
France. where he could breathe, ne
says, as he could not breathe IN the
trammels of convention. After some
years he got tired Of tramping and
enlisted in the Foreign Legion under
a false name. He remained with the
corps for ten years, and then came
back to France to tramp the roads
again, begging as he went. The magis
trate offered to find this incurable
vagabond food and lodging In a home
but he refused, and was therefore sem
to prison.

it was ordered that the summe OF

planting of trees in the wakes be paid

There is evidence that Raleigh, Just
