Prof. Balch of Harvard testified the
poison could have been taken in tea with
less likelihood of detection than in any
other manner.
The government contends the poison
| was given in tea and other beverages.
Prof. Whitney was called to the stand
to recount the result of his analysis
of the organs removed from the body oil
Admiral Eaton.
A letter written by Mrs. Eaton to
Prof. Whitney in 1900, while the chem
list was examining the digestive organs
of an adopted child of the Eatons, who
had died suddenly, was produced. The
latter follows:
"Will you kindly inform me how much
longer it will be before you can state
exactly what my dear little healthy
strong child died from? / am here alone
in tins isolated place with my husband,
Admiral j. G. Eaton, who / know to be
a dangerous insane man. My heart and
pity 90 out to this man who is so clever
that he fools the world at largel but
not me.
NOW plbNSe SedTCU iDT IUIelBH pois-
ons, as he has talked to me freely about
foreign poisons and he has all the clev-
erness of maniac and cunning enough
to use one that would be hard to de-
tect.
"He has been planning my death all
to-day and yet | am powerless, and ]
trust on the finding of poison to have
him examined for insanity and taken
care of. / don't want his money (sal-
aryl, he has no money, but | do want
the state to take charge of that dear
little life and him, for he is mad. Please
let me hear from you at an early date
and search for cholera subtle poison.
Respectfully,
Mrs. j. NJ. Eaton
"Also have a thorough examination
of his food and medicine, if it is a pois-
on it is q subtle one and he is familiar
with cholera and has spoken about pois-
on used for it and as much as said
they could not find it, it is so much like |
symptoms of cholera. So watch on these |
lines. | know he is insane"
Every organ in the admiral's body |
was permeated by arsenic, Prof. Whit |
ney reported as a result of his analysis. |
A total of 1857 grains of pure white |
arsenic was definitely ascertained as
present.

certain phases of the subject There
are probably about 1000 young men
studying in the forest schools. For
estry may therefore be considered an
established profession in the United
States. The character of the work
which the forester Is called upon to
do varies greatly under different con-
ditions. Some men spend the greater
part of their time In the more strictly
technical work of the profession.
They study such problems as the de-
termination OF the amount of mer-
charitable timber on a given tract. its
rate of growth, the best methods Of
cutting to secure a second crop with
out recourse to planting. and, In gen.
eral, all problems which deal with
the life history and production Of the
forest. Other men spend more time
on the business end of the work. in
devising methods of protecting the
forest from fire. In organizing an
efficient system Of administration, In
determining the cheapest and most
effective methods of numbering, and.
In general, in dealing with the prob
lem of the utilization of the forest
But most foresters, however, have to
deal with both the scientific aud the
business aspects of the profession.

During the last decade forestry In
the United States has developed with
remarkable rapidly. The Inaugural
ton Of forest management on the
national forests, the activity OF various
states In public forestry, and the in
creasing interest of private owners in
timber growing and protection have
resulted in a marked demand for
trained foresters.
When active work In forestry began
there were no forest schools in this
country, and those entering upon the
work were obliged to go to Europe
for technical training. Today there
are twenty-five institutions in the
United States which give courses lead
ins 10 a degree in forestry, and about
forty others which include forestry in
their curricula.
1t Is estimated that there are fully
500 men in the United States with a
greater or less degree of technical
training. in addition to 1900 forest
rangers who began without knowl-
edge of the technical side of forestry.
but many of whom, through their ex-
perience In national and state forest
work under technical direction. have
acquired considerable knowledge Of

Treating the surrounding atmos-

an elaborate plant near Arlington, Vir-
ginia, to test its efficacy.

New Man in Office.


Governor-elect Ferris has announced
that he will send the name of John
T. Winship, of Saginaw, to the SEN
ate for confirmation as insurance com.
missioner to succeed G. A. Palmer.
This position pays $4,000 annually
and is one OF the best plums that the
democratic chief executive will have
at his disposal. Winship has for years
been one of the democratic stalwarts
and was the democratic candidate for
United States senator against Charles
E. Townsend two years ago.
1t has also been definitely decided
that James Helme. of Adrian, will be
appointed dairy and food commissioner
the first of the year. Helme was ap.
pointed deputy dairy and food com.
missioner under Gilman Dame. Owing
to the fact that Helme was a demo-
crat, his appointment as deputy by
Gov. Osborn was entirely non-politi-
cal. Helme was picked because of his
fitness for the position and his expert
knowledge of the dairy business.
Ferris has officially decided upon
James Scully, of lonia, as the success
or to George w. Dickinson, OF Pom.
tiac, as a member of the state rail.
road commission. This is another Of
the choice pieces of patronage at the
disposal of the new governor, as Soul
ly's term will be for six years, and the
salary Is $4,000. When the railroad
commission was created four years
ago, Scully was appointed one of the
commissioners by Ex-Governor Fred
M. Warner.
Going Abroad.
When Governor Osborn retires from
the executive Office the first of the
year, it may be some time before he
steps foot on Michigan soil again, as
he says that he intends to spend much
of his time in travel and will prob
ably start for some foreign climate
at once.
The chief executive was "A news
paper publisher for great many years
and has worked as reporter on some
Of the largest papers in the country.

est newspapers and magazines in the

dreds Of blind children In the state
who are unable to gain admission ow-
ing to the limited facilities OF the In
stitution. ~
At recent session OF the legisla-
ture law was enacted requiring COM
puls0ry education for all blind child
rem In the state, and Superintendent
Holmes points to this as sufficient
reason why sufficient money should be
appropriated to. care 70 rthose who are
being neglected at present. It is point
ed out that in many cases the parents
of these children are unable, because
Of adverse financial conditions, to ed.
ucate them in private schools, and as
a result they grow up and become OBJ
jects Of charity, where they might be
developed into self supporting citizens
had they received the advantages af
forded at the Michigan School for the
Blind.
The educational course at the Mich
igan School for the Blind compares
fayorably with the advantages af.
forded in regular grammar and high
schools of the state, and in addition.
each pupil is taught some trade.
Superintendent Holmes wants to add
40 acres to the school property in or
der that course in agriculture may
be added to the curriculum. From OBJ
servation In other states he has
Learned that agriculture Is a pursuit
that may be followed to considerable
advantage by blind persons, and he
says that polltry arising is another
industry favorable to those who have
lost their sight. The legislature has
always dealt generously with the
School for the Blind and there Is
every reason to believe that the ar
guments of Superintendent Holmes
will carry considerable weight at the
coming session.
A Warm Election.
There Is sure to be a warm contset
over the election of secretary of the
senate to succeed E. V. Chilson, who
has announced his retirement after
serving in that capacity for number
OF essions past. Chilson says that his
business demands all his time and he
is forced to drop out of politics tenn.
porarily. The secretaryship of the SEN
ate is worth $40 per day and carries
with it considerable political prestige.
Consequently it is much sought after
and friends of the respective candi.
dates are already soliciting the sup
port of the various members of the
upper house.
Dennis E. Award, of Clare, for
publican state central committee is
being prominently mentioned for the
position. Award was secretary of the
senate for a great many years prev.
ious to Chilson's election and it Is
thought that his experience will mil
itate in his favor. During the last prt
mary campaign Award was defeated
for the republican nomination for con-
gress in the eleventh district.
Sidney Hall, of Detroit, who has
been journal clerk in the house dur
ing the past two sessions, announces
that he is in the race for secretary Of
the senate and calims to have the solid
support Of the Wayne delegation. The
election of secretary will be one Of
the first duties that the senate will be
called upon to perform and much wire
pulling Is expected before any of the
candidates secure the desired number
of votes.
