Tho Nntional conservation commission hns cnuscd tho first comprohensivo nttempt at tho census of tho stnnding timber in tho United Stntca ever undcrtnkon. Tho commission needs tho informntion to help comploto its inventory of tho coun try's natural resources which it will include in its report to tho president, and since that report is to bo sub mitted on tho first of next year, it needs tho information at once. In con sequent tho work on tho census has been stnrtcd with a rush nnd is now well under way.

A loading authority has plnccd it as high ns 150,- 000,000,000 board feet. Assuming thnt stumpago of 1,400,000,000,000 bonrd feet, an nnnual uso of 100,000,000,000 board feet and neglecting growth in the calculation, tho exhaustion of our tim ber supply is indicated in 14 years, and assuming tho samo uso and stand with an. annual growth of 40,000,000,000 feet, a supply for 23 years is indicated.

Passencers on the Lake Shore Twentieth Century Lim ited thought they were taking break fast in a wreck as the tender trucks of the giant locomotive hauling the fast train left the tracks a half mile west of Gary at 8 A. M. yesterday. For a mile the wheels of the tender bumped over the ties, while the en gineer sought to halt the flyer, speed ing to Chicago at the rate of 60 miles an hour. The dining car and the smoker also left the raiTs. For what seemed to the passengers three or four minutes the train dashed ahead, but with slackening speed. Af ter about a mile it was brought to a stop and it was found that no one was injured. At the point where the ac cident occurred the tracks of the Lake Shore arc elevated so that an embank ment of eight or ten feet descending on either side promised a dangerous plunge if the bouncing cars left the rails. The airbrake on the diner, loosened from its fastenings, fell to the ground. This derailed the diner, the smoker and the tender. An angle-bar of the track was uprooted and tore through the floor of the diner, causing a panic among the passengers at breakfast. WRIGHTS LATEST WONDER. Beats World's Record With Passenger on Board.

With a French journalist by his side, ho remained in tho air for 55 minutes and 37 seconds, circling tho field 24 times and covering a distanco estimated at 58 kilometers, or about 36 miles. His best previous flight with a passenger was 11 minutes 35 2-5 seconds. By his feat Mr. Wright" practically fulfills tho conditions of a contract signed by him and Lazaro Weillcr, who represents n syndicate, whereby Mr. Wright receives $100,000, and tho syn dicate takos in return tho patent rights of the Wright mnchino for Frnnco and tho colonies, with tho privilege of man ufacturing aeroplanes on this model. Tho sun was setting when Mr. Wright nnd his passenger, started, and the flight was completed in tho moonlight. When thoy alighted, tho French jour nalist in his enthusiasm threw his nrms nround Mr. Wright's neck, nnd tho great crowd of spectators was hardly less demonstrative in its manifestations of dolight.
