Putman of Eau Claire, Wiscon sin, has made a close study of the timber question in this eonntry. He gives a clear account of the present situation, and shows that carefal estimates, now being made in the great timber States, prove the approxi mate correctness of tne estimates made in 1880. Ths limitations of the pine supply in the Northwest were then pointed oat, with its practical exhaustion in a few years under the existing rate of destruction, and present figures show the tremendous inroads made on that supply daring the past eight years. In Wisconsin, for instance, the estimate of standing pine was forty-on bil!6n feet; the present appears to be less than ten billion! It is now claimed that Miohigan has less than thirty billion left, and the amount in Minne sota is probably no more than eight or ten billion. The southern . forrest lands hare enormously increased in value, and northern lumbermen have made heavy investments there. The Canadian lumber resources prove much less than was popularly supposed, and the Winnipeg region is now largely supplied from Minnesota. We are also exporting lumber largely to Australia, China, Japan and Mexico. The timber culture act is a failure in Min- j nesota. Dakota, Kansas and Nebraska, after j trial of ten years, the government giving away its valuable land in vain. Mr. Putman suggests that the proceeds of future sales in Wisconsin, Michigan and Minnesota should, in simple justioe, be given to those States for the establishment of schools of forestry, and the payment of trained foresters to take care of the forests; and that the same be done in the southern timber States, where govern ment timber lands, now selling at $3,25 per acre, could readily bring bouble that price. Mr. Putman'a suggestion is a good one. Unless something is done soon the timber supply of the United States will be brought down to suoh a condition of very undesirable leanness. It is being altogether too reck lessly used. A littie wisdom now in the matter will bring big returns. EDITORIAL MOTES. The outlook for the great cattle-raising in dustry of Wyoming, where the "round-ups" are now going on, is reported more promis ing than it has been for several years. From 65,000 to 75,000 head will be ready to ship by the end of Ootober, it is thought. Prioes are higher than for two years past, and more over the stockmen have learned not to over crowd the ranges and to take abundant pre caution against the severity of the winter season. There are at least thirteen people at Lenox who can afford to take a vacation. ' They and the figures of their fortunes are: D. W. Bishop $35,000,000, George W.Westinghouse $20,000,000, W. D. Sloane $18,000,000, Chas. Lanier $15,000,000, G. G. Haven $13,000,000, George A. Crocker $12,000,000, William H. Bradford $10,000,000, James L. Barolay $10, 000,000, Anson Phelps Stokes $3,000,000, Brayton Ives $6,000,000, Colonel Auohmnty $5,000,000, Mrs. Lawrence Turnure $5,000,- 000, Miss Furniss $4,000,000. According to the Iron Age, the longest straight reach of railroad in the world is on the new Argentine Pacific railroad from Buenos Ayres to the foot of (he Andes. For distance of 211 miles the line is laid with out a curve. ' The level nature of the coun try will be evident from the fact that there is neither a outting nor an- embankment whioh is deeper or higher than one yard. The entire absenee of wood on the plain aoross which the western end of the road passes has led to the extensive' use of metallic sleepers. Operations have already been begun on the mountain section of the road, whioh is to oross the Andes and to opes up communica tion with the Chilian line. The New York Press well shows the weak ness of the "average" artrument used by the Democrats in talking about the Mills bilL It saysr The real increase in the average rate is attributable almost entirely to the average ad valorem rate on sugar under a specific duty, to. the increase in the duty on foreign spirits - to 154 per cent. and of foreign tobacco and cigars to 84 per cent., and to nearly 100 per cent. duty on rice. Here we have nearly $100, 000,000 worth of Imports at rates varying from 78 to 154 per cent. In this way the high rates on these southern Industries and on foreign spirits, tobasoo, etc., are made to screen the 30 or 40 per cent, whioh has been indiscriminately taken off northern indus tries. ' . Joseph Weber of New York has reason to complain of the quality of Justioe adminis tered in that State. He was sent to the re formatory at El mira when he was a small boy. He remained there until lie was twenty-one, when he was released a pietty thor oughly reformed young man. For six years sinoe his release he has behaved himself and earned an honest living and the respect of all wh know him. More than that he has earn ed the affections of a yonng woman whom he has asked to marry him. Now under the New Tork law the authorities of the reform atory have a sort of supervisory power over the graduates until they are thirty years old. Some one notified them that Weber was about to get married and they ordered his ar rest and the judge before whom he was brought sends him back as a prisoner to EI. mira. It takes an English paper to deal accurate ly and intelligently with affairs in this coun try. Thus, the Birmingham Post, in its re marks on General Sheridan's death, says that he learned in the Franco-German war the lesson which .he afterward used to suoh ad vantage in our civil contest. ' "He had," says the Poet, "the good fortune to witness some of the most remarkable battles of the Franco German war when representing the Ameri can government at the German army during the invasion of France. There can be no doubt that he profited immensely by the les sons of that war and by the counsels and criticisms of the German strategists with whom he was in daily contact, and when the war crisis arose in his own country, there fore, he met it with a much better equip ment of knowledge and experience than most of his colleagues and contemporaries." This is good when it is remembered that our civil war ended five years before the war in Fronoe began. The contemplated Channel bridge, as out lined by French and English engineers, is ex pected to cost some two hundred million dol lars, the shortest distance being some twenty-two miles, that is, on the score of shallow ness. The depth of the Channel is declared to be much lees than is commonly supposed and there are two shallows those between Cran-aux-Aufs and Folkestone, where the depth is only twenty feet, and these, it is ex pected, will insure a material difference in laying the foundations and huge piles whioh will be required for such a gigantic structure. From the French coast to these shallows the depth is about one hundred feet and from the other Bhallow to Folkestone about one hundred feet. - The plan is to have a bridge with two slight bends, the first deviating a little to reach one shallow and the other fall ing back to reach Folkestone. The piles re quired would be blocks of concrete and ma. sonry 160 feet long by 100 broad, these to be placed at intervals of about 550 yards, these measurements to be possibly augmented in order to insure to the bridge a strength ca pable of bearing some twenty thousand tons weight. The causeway of the bridge will be about 160 feet above the sea level, or of suf ficient height to enable vessels of any class to pass freely beneath it. BGAGTIFCL.

Boy Makes Bis Troubles Known" to tne World. From the Boston Transcript. Tommy Cute, aged 1, having suffered as long as he oan stand it, writes to me in order that his grievances, being known to the pub lic, may immediately be cured. I object, he says, in the first place to being forced to adopt Farmer Jones' brindle eow for a foster mother. I object, also, to the existence of a like rel ationship between myself and ths condensed milk factory or the cornstarch mill. I object to having my stomach stuffed as a remedy for a mosquito bite on ' my little toe or a nasty pin in my back. I object to .personating a churn. I prefer to take my butter after the churning process is completed. I object to be kissed by all the women, old and young who coma near me. I prefer to wait a tew years, or at least until I shall be old enoagh to make my own selections. I obieot to having people ask about my age. It is an impertinenoe. Besides, grown people sometimes remember, and of ages they are apt in Keeping a record. I obiect to going hungry until company is served. Dor my part, I don't see what peo pie want company for. Company is a nuis ance, naamma ana papa nave aaia bo nun dreds of times in my hearine. I object to being obliged to go about with my neck and arms bare. When it is hot the flies and moquitoes bother me awfully, and when the air is chilly I feel aa though I were f reeling to aeatn. I obieot, when I go out to ride in my per ambulator, to having myself left alone in the sun while my maid sports with that long leg ged chap with the yellow mustache and ready made clothing. I obiect to being sent to bed when I am sleepy, and to having a nasty rubber tube stuok into my mouth every time l turn over in the nisht. - - I object to having strangers make faces at me They give me au awful start sometimes when they think they are amusing me. I object to be'spoken to by ceople with whom I am not acquainted. Why don't they wait for an introduction! I ebjeot to being the only child in the fam ily. It's awful lonesome not to have any brothers or siBters. 1 wian l Had been born when it was fashionable to have large f ami- ieg. I object to being called Tom, ust because my papa was called Tom, when he was a boy. Because his papa eave him a name he didn't like was Bo reason for giving me a tame I de test, l should think a boy ougnt to De al lowed to choose his own name. I object to wearing dresses and having my hair curled. Half the folks think I'm a I object to being bossed by women. A man ought to be his own master. I'm just sick of petticoat government. I object to being taught baby talk. What good does it do me? Af er I have become pro ficient in it I have to go to work and unlearn it and learns grown folks' language. Why don't they teach me that in the first place! I object to having folks bore me with their silly stories which I have heard so many times that they are veritable chestnuts. I object to having people humbug me all the time. They tell me what I should do and what I should not do. I notice they are not given to taking their own medioine. What dunces they are not to know that I learn more from, what I see than from what they tell me. There's lots of other things to whioh I ' ob ject but this will do for a starter. Strange Titles of tbe Bible. Amoiig the delusions of centuries few are more deep seated than that which would have us ascribe the publication of the Bible to the Reformation, the fact being that as many as a dozen editions were issued in Ger many some half century earlier than that mighty upheaval of religious thought. Now probably there are ten thousand or more edi tions in existence, and a late Duke succeeded in collecting about two thousand copies in almost every language under heaven. Many versions have become known by the quaint, est of titles. Thus we have the Breeches Bible, which is indebted for its strange so briquet to the translation "Adam and Eve made themselves breeches," etc. For this edition, which first appeared in 1560 in quar to form, we are indebted to the English re formers exiled at Genera; during the reign of Elizabeth it served as the regular family Bible, its popularity being mainly due to the Calvinistio comments which appeared freely on the margin. Then we have an edition, printed in 1717 at the Clarendon press, known as the Vine gar Bible, because the parable of the Vine yard in the title to the twentieth chapter of St. Luke iB printed "parable of the Vine gar." Matthew's Bible", printed in London in 1551, was nicknamed the Bug Bible, from the fifth verse of the ninety-first psalm being translated, "so that thou shalt not nede to be afraid for anv Busees by niffhte." The orig inal idea of the word terror is still to be' traced in bugbear, bugaboo. The Wioked Bible was printed in London in 1631, and was so called from the fact that the negation was omitted in certain of the command ments; the result being that the edition was suppressed and the printer fined three hun dred pounds by Archbishop Laud, the mon ey being, it is said, devoted to the purchase of a supply of Greek type for the use of the University of Oxford. The Whig or Placemaker'a Bible obtained its name from an error occurring in St. Mat thew v. 0, where "Blessed are the plaeema ker" is substituted for "peacemakers." The Treaole Bible has the passage iu Jeremiah, "Is. there no balm in GUead?" rendered, "Is there no treaole in Gilead?" and the Douay (Roman Catholic) version has been described as the Rosin Bible, because tbe same passage has the word rosin instead of treacle. Many years ago there existed in the Stowe library the book of gospels, on which the English kings, down to Edward the Sixth, took the coronation oath, with a huge brazen crucifix which -the monarohs kissed, on its cover. The binding was of ponderous oak boards an inch or so in thickness, fastened by huge leathern throngs. The .Printers' Bible makes David pathetically complain that printers in place of princes nave prosecuted him with out a cause." KITTEN AND PUPPY. AlPretty Game that Is O fierier Seen than Written About. From the Boston Transcript. Then the mastery of herself which a cat shows when, having been caught in a posi tion from whioh there is no escape, she calm ly sits down to face out the threats of a dog, is a marvelous thing. Everybody has seen a kitten on the street doorstep attacked by a dog ten times her size,- as apparently self possessed as if she were in her mistress' lap. If she turns tail and runs down the street she is lost; the dog will have a sure advantage of her. Even as it is, if he could get up courage enough to seize her on the spot he would be able to make short work of her. It is a case life and death, but the whole air and attitude of the cat is one of pare and confident brava do. 'You dare not touch me, and yon know it," is what her position tells the dog. But she is intensely on her guard, in spite of her air ot pertect oontent. tier legs, are con cealed under her fur, are ready for a spring, her claws are unsheathed; her eyes never move for a instant from tbe dog; as he bounds wildly from side to side, barking with comi cal fury, these glittering eyes of hers follow him with the keenest scrutiny. If he plucks up his couaage to grab her, she is ready; she will Bell her life dearly? She is watching her chance, and she does not miss it. - The dog tries Fabian tactics, and withdraws few feet, settling down upon his forepaws, growling ferociously as he does so. Just then the sound ot a dogs baric in tne next street attracts his eyes and ears for a moment, and when he looks bacs tlie kitten was eone! He looks down the street and start wildly in that direction, and reaches a high board fence just as a catatail a mon strous tail for suoh a little cat is vanishing over the top of it. He is beaten; the oat showed not only more courage than he had but a great deal more generalship. Makes tlio lives ot many people miserable, and often leads to self-destruction. Distress after eating, sour stomach, sick headache, heartburn, loss of appetite, a faint, " aU eone" feeling, bad taste, coated tongue, and irregu . larity ot the bowels, are DiStXGSS some of the moro common After symptoms. Dyspepsia does not get well of itself. It Eating requires careful, persistent attention, and a remedy like Hood's Sarsa parllla, which acts gently, yet surely and efficiently. It tones the stomach and other organs, regulates the digestion, creates a good appetite, and by thus . gllr overcoming the local symp toms removes the symparOaacnO thetlo effects of the disease', banishes the headache, and refreshes the tired mind. " I have been troubled with dyspepsia. I had but little appetite, and what I did eat Un. . distressed me, or did me tieaiT utUo good. In an hour burn after eating I would expe- . rieneo a faintness, or tired, all-gone feeling, as though I had not eaten anything. Mytrou ble, I think, was aggravated by my business, which is that of a painter, and from being more or less shut upTn a SOUT room with fresh paint. Last c . spring I took Hood's Sarsa- Oiomacn rflla took three bottles. It did me an Immense amount of good. It gave me an appetite, and my food relished and satisfied . the craving I had previously experienced." Gxobgb A Paqb, Watertown, Mass. Hood's Sarsaparilla Sold by all druggists. $1 ; six for fs.
