TO PROTECT WATER SUPPLY Asks for Repeal or IttotflOcatiou of the Present Timber Laws' to Save the Timber. Washington, Nov. 3. The important feature of Land Commissioner Her mann's annual report, submitted today, is a recommendation for the immediate withdrawal from disposal of a part of all the public lands which are more valuable for forest purposes than for other uses. This step is urged in view of the heaw inroads being 'made upon the public timber ana the resulting damage to water supply. If this step cannot be taken, it is urged as absolute ly necessary that the timbor and stone act, passed 30 years ago, be either re pealed or materially modified. Two dollars and a half an acre for timber land is a mere nominal price, when the land is often worth $100 per acre. "If the timber and stone act is to con tinue in force." said Commissioner Hermann today, "it should be modi- fled to allow the Government to get a fair price for its timber lands. Since the enactment of the present law, 30 years ago, the Government has realized Jbnt $13,000,000, when the lands disposed of were wo'th $130,000,04Wat the lowest figure. I believe free use of public timber in limited quantities should be allowed settlers and miners for domes tic purposes, but all timber taken from the pub'io domain for commercial and manufacturing purposes should be pur chased at a fair price. Under the pres ent law timber valued at not lesaithan $100,000,000 has been stolen or de stroyed. Under a revised law, properly enforced by an adequate ranger force, this should not continue." The new rule of the department al lowing the Woolgrowers' Association to take charge of the allotment of sheep and range in forest reserves where sheep grazing was allewed fdurine the past season did not always prove satis factory, and caused more delays in is suing permits than under the former system. Investigations madeby forest inspectors indicate! that generally too many sheep were allowed in the re serves, and that the number must be materially decreased next year. Attempts to prosecute fraudulent en tryman have been greatly hampered be cause of the refusal of witnesses to give testimony before local land officers, I either from intimidation or other causes. To overcome this, the Commissioner renews bis recommendation for the en actment of a law compelling ?the at tendance of witnesses in such cases un der penalty. A forcible argument is made on the necessity of! extending - public surveys to Alaska. It is shown that tke lack of thepe surveys is greatly retarding the development of lumber ing, agricultural, coal and mineral de velopment. Homesteaders also are anxious to acquire lands in Alaska, but dare not without they can acquire title. Itii rural at the Stake. Sardis, Miss., Nov. 1. An unknown negro was burned at the stake at Par line, Miss., last night for the murder of E. O. Jackson and a millowner named Ruselle at Darling, Miss., Wednesday night. Two white men implicated by the negro in his dying confession were held but were liberated later by proving an alibi. The negro was burned by a mob of 4000 persons, both white and black. Just before the lighting of the funeral pyre, the negro confessed that he had committed the double murder with the assistance of two white ' men The motive was robbery, and a consid erable sum wbb secured, which the ne gro stated was divided among the three. ITIuat Take Sliver for Debt. Washington, Nor. 3 The United States Supreme Court today dismissed, on the ground that no Federal question was involved, the writ of error in the case of Fred A. Baker vs. Stephen Bald win, both of Michigan, involving the constitutionality of the Bland-Allison coinage act of 1878, providing for the coinage of silver dollars. The case arose out of a refusual on the part of Baker, to who Baldwin owed $328, to accept silver dollars. The case was de cided in Baldwin's favor by the Su preme court of Michigan, and Baker brought it to the United States Supreme court on a writ of error. The former decision was sustained by today's de cision, but the court did not enter into the merits of the controversy. French Airship. Paris, Nov. 3. It has been known for some time past that the Brothers Le baudy and an engineer named Julliot have been constructing a steerable bal loon, but such secrecy has been observ ed that little or nothing has been pub lished about the new flying machine. A newspaper reporter now claims to huVe witnessed the first experiment with the new baloon, which be says occured yesterday at Robert Lebaudy's Don't forget the old man with the fish on his back. For nearly thirty years he has been traveling around the world, and is still traveling, i ii.i i r bringing neaitn ana comiort wherever he goes. To the consumptive he brings the strength and flesh he so much needs. To all weak and sickly children he gives rich and strengthening food. To thin and pale persons he gives new firm flesh and rich red blood. Children who first saw the old man with the fish are now grown up and have children of their own. He stands for Scott's Emul sion of pure cod liver oil a delightful food and a natural tonic for children, for old folks and for all who need flesh and strength.

The bal loon ascended to a height of about 20 yards with two persons in the car. It wai held down by ropes, and the motor drove the airship against a stiff breeze. After maneuvers lasting half an hour, during which several circles of the park where the experiments were conducted were made, the airship was replaced in its shed. Watered Capital. London, Nov. 1. Severe comment on the alleged extravagant price at which the International Mercantile Marine Company bought the White Star Line appears in the financial columns of the London newspapers. It is predicted that it will be impossible to pay divi-, dends on cuch a watered ''capital, aid' the public is warned to avoids subscrib ing if shares are issued. Comparisons are drawn with the Hooley methods of company promoting. In an editorial article in the Daily Mail points out that the steamship City of Rome, which cost $ 1,500,000 in 1881, has just been sold for $85,000 to break up. The paper asks what is the precise value of Mr. Morgan's collection of second-hand liners, a majority of which are 10 years old. Crew at San 1'ranrlico. San Francisco, Nov. 1. The crew of the abandoned schooner Ottillia Teder sen arrived on the transport Sheridan from Nagssaki, leaving Captain J. C. Hanson, of the Tedersen, in Japan. The Pedereen was bound from What com for Hong Kong with a cargo of 600,000 feet of lumber, and on October 5, when GOO miles off the coast of Japan, lost her rudder in a gale, and began to leak. The leak was kept down by the crew, but the vessel, according to First Mate Scbeldrop, was entirely unman ageable without a rudder, and went on her beam ends. There was immediate prospect of the pchooner foundering when the American gunboat Princeton put in an appearance and took off Cap tain Hanson and his nine men. cv 'I'imr for Hare..
