UMPQUA FOREST RESERVE
HAS 2 FIRES IN 3 YEARS
♦----------------------------------------------- ♦
There have been but two small
fires this year in the Bohemia dis
trict of the Umpqua forest reserve
and these were the first fire in
three years. E. 8. Holderman is
head ranger in this district. One of
the fires, tho result of carelessness
on the part of a camper, burnt over
four acres. The other, a lightning
fire, burned but a half acre. The
damage iu both cases was but neg
ligible.
The Bohemia district comprises
167,351 acres of land on which five
and a half billion foot of timber is
standing. Four years ago thero wore
a large number of lightning fires
which burned over 600 acres.

WANTAD8 TELL STORY OF
UNCONCERN OF MANY WHO
LOSE VALUABLE ARTICLES
♦----------------------------------------------- ♦
The wantad columns illustrate tha
unconcern which many folks seem
to have for their property. Thero
seldom is a week that tho wantads
fail to contain notice of some arti
cle being found. Many of these are
left with the newspaper so that
they may be easily claimed by their
owners. Probably more than half
of such articles are never called
for. Bunches of keys are found al
most every week and, if The Sen
tinel did not get rid of those which
are kept for several weeks with no
owners claiming them, it probably
would have a bushel basket of keys
of every description.
It is rather odd that those who
lose keys seldom advertise the fact
and it is peculiar that keys are the
articles most unlikely to be claimed,
whereas it would seem that the
loser of a bunch of keys would be
anxious for their immediate return.
Often valuable articles of jewel
ry remain unclaimed.
Those losing articles can usually
insure their return by advertising
their loss, but if that is not dono no
loser of any articlo should fail to
read the wantads to see whether
somo honest person has found tho
lost article and advertised the fact.
DELEGATE WHO VOTES FOR

Coincidence was present at the
annual Oregon conference of the
Methodist Episcopal church last
week, when the eloction of dele
gates to the general conference to
be held next year was in progress.
Dr. Jones Lisle, one of the re
tired patriarchal ministers of the
church, voted Friday for Rev. Jo
seph Knotts to go to tho general

elected. That’s not unusual, of
course.
But 52 years ago at Des Moines,
la., Dr. JameH Lisle voted for Rev.
Joseph Knotts of thnt conference to
go to tho general conference and ho
won. The Rev. Joseph Knotts who
was elected Friday is not 52 years
old, so it wasn’t tho same man, nat
urally.
After Mr. Knotts was elected last
week Dr. Lisle approached him. “I
voted for a Joseph Knotts 52 years
ago at Des Moines, ’ ’ he said.
“Is that so,’’ Mr. Kuotts replied.
‘ ‘ He was my father. ’ ’—Oregonian.
