"Re a good boy and go to sleep." ' I won 't go to tdoep, and I mu-t have the band." He had his way. The bandsmen were reused from their slep and ordered to serenade the little prince until he went to sleep. Another anecdote: Saying his pravcrs one night he ended by shouting Hur rah for find!

There was a rush to the White House. Soon Mr. Lincoln appear ed at the window over the front en trance. He replied to the demand for a speech, 1 well remember his closing words, which were: " 'There iM a song or tune which I used to hear with great pleasure be fore the war, but our friends across the river have appropriated it to their use during the last four years. It is the tune called "Dixie." Hut I think ie have captured it. At any rate, T onferred with the attornev general this morning, and. he expressed the pinion that.

EXPECT WAR IN CHINATOWN Peace Pact Expires To morrow -Was Entered Into lor New Year's Day SAX FRANCISCO, Cal.. Feb. 0. The dragon of war is showing his teeth in Chinatown today and there is a feel ing of uiieni-iitess among San Francisco celestials, owing to the fact that the peace pact entered into by the warring Suey Don ami On Yick tongs will ex pire tomorrow. As a result of the feud two On Yick members and one Suey Don man have already been killed, iii order that the Chinese Xew Year might be celebrated in peace anad amity, the rival tongs agreed to suspend further murderous activities until February 10. The temporary treaty of peace will be come ineffective tomorrow and further outbreaks of the murderous hatred that exists in the ranks of the two tongs are confidently anticipated. The Suey Dons allege that the On Yicks are cravens and cowards, nnd are not playing the game according to rule, because of the fact that the lat ter tong has appealed to the courts of the white devils to bring about the punishment of the Suey Dons respoii sible for the murder of the two On Yick men, Lew Hong and Wong Lung. The On Yicks have promised to assist the prosecuting attorney in bringing the assailants to justice, and have em ployed a prominent local attorney to fissist the prosecution. This action has aroused the Suey Dons to impotent wrat li, not unmixed with fear, and a permanent peace pact mav vet be agreed upon which will put an end to the warfare of the tongs and slop (he prosecution of the alleged murderers. Meanwhile, the Suey Dons are calling down upon the heads of the On Yicks all the malediction in the Chincscc vocabulary of cuss words, declaring that -their action in appealing to (he Cali fornia courts will put an end to the an cient nnd honorable profession of as sassination, so long the pastime of the rival longs.

ODE TO COMING OREGON SENATE KILLS USE OF TIMBER Sales in Year Increase 236 Per Cent -Amount Cut Has Doubled The actual use of the varied reHourern f the gover cut's lliS.OOO.OOU acres f national forest land is on the in crease, according to the report of the work for tint fiscal year 11WS. The re port ttays that from an administrative standpoint the most striking fact of the ir was the remarkable increase which k place in the volume of business t lansacted. Phis growth of business done by the Fnited States forest service last year over the previous year is partly brought out in the following tdntement showing percentages nt increase in the number of timber sales, -'Mi per cent; iit the amount of timber cut under sales, 102 per cent; in the number of free timber permits, 7li per cent; in the number -f grazing permits, II per cent, anil tu the number of special-use permits, (17 per cent. That the additions tu exist ing national forests and new creations caused this iucease only to a small ex tent is shown by the fact that Ihe area increased is only 11 per cent. In speak ing of this feature of the work of the forest service in his annual report, the secretary of agriculture says in part: Growth in Business. "The growth in the volume of busi ness arising from use of the forests has created a very serious administra tive problem. Last year 7S per cent of the time of (he administrative and pro tective force was taken up by the de mauds of national forest business. The average forest area to each officer supposedly available for pat rol duty was about 120,000 acres; but with more than t hree-fourt lis of the time of these ollicers occupied with timber-sale, urn 7. , ing and other business, the force actual ly available for patrol was equivalent to about one man to each r00,oi)0 acres. That under these circumstances the fire i looses in a year of exceptional danger were kept down to a very smalt figure in comparison with the value id' the j timber exposed and the damage from 1 forest fires elsewhere in a matter of 1 congratulation. "The risk incurred, however, is out of all proportion to the added cost which more adequate protection would ( involve. I am convinced that the pro- j vision made for the care and use of the national forests hat become inade quate to their needs, and I have there fore submitted estimates for the fiscal year ll'lo, which ask for a substan tial increase in the appropriation. YYitli the further growth in business which Is certain to take place during the present year, even less protection can be given lhan has been given in the past. In deed, the point has now nearly been reached at which it is not even a choice between providing f'T Ihe needs of those who would use the forests and protecting the forests themselves.
