ThoHUbJcct of forest preservation In the
tcst forma an Important chapter of the
annual report of Prol. B. U. Fcrnow , chief
6t the division of forestry of the Agricultural
department. The stopi taken by the gover-
went under the act of March , 1S01 , Betting
aside forest lands OR reserves for public uses ,
ro horlously Impaired by a proviso grant
ing almost tinrostrloted use of limber lands
not so reserved. The main purpose of the
net was to protorvo timber lands from
\vholesalo denudation , but this com-
tnciuliibln icaturo is lamely annulled
by on arnnndmsnt tacked on
ot the eleventh hour , making It lawful for
any person to cut timber on public land for
"agricultural , mining , manufacturing or do
nii'stiii purposes. " In view of this condi
tion , Prof. Fornow urges that the broadest
possloio construction bo placed upon the low
ly the Department of Agriculture. "Thoro
can ImriJIy bo any doubt , " ho says , "ns to
What objects and considerations should bo
kept In view In reserving such lands and
withdrawing them from uriv.Ue occupancy.
Those are lirst nnd foremost of economic im
portance , not only for the present but moro
jpi'cl.ul.v for the future prosperity of the
jiooplo residing near mich reservations ,
namely , llrst , to assure u continuous torcst
cover of the soil on mountain Mono * nnd
crests for the nurposo of preserving or equal-
I/Ing watortlow In thu streams which nro to
ecrvo for purpose of Irrigation , rind to pre
vent formation of torrents and soil washing ;
tecond , to assure n continuous supply ot
\vood material from the limbered areas by
cutting Judiciously and with n view to repro
duction. Secondary oojecu , such as can und
will bo subserved' the sntno time with
these llrst cited , are those of nn iiMlholIu
iiulti 10 , namely , to preserve natural scenery ,
rrrnarltablo objects of interest , and to secure
places of retreat for those in quest of health ,
recreation und pleasure. Belli objects are
legitimate , hut tno llrst class is Infinitely
wore Important nnd the second is easily pro-
vldou for lu securing the llrst. "
The reserves already made by the govern
ment nro : The WliUo river plateau In Colorado
rado , embracing the head waters of the
White , Grand and Yumpa rivers ; another nt
the houd of Pccos river lu Now Mexico and
the enlargement of Yellowstone park.
In response to a petition from the Ameri
ca n Forestry association the department Is
examining the following tracts of public
Jnnd with the Intention of reserving them :
The Klathead and Marias river rcclon , oc
cupying the rugged and mountnmaus conti
nental dlvldo In northwestern Montana.
'rho rugged slopes of I'iko's Peak iu Cole
rado.
The mountain region northeast of bnnta
Fo , N. M. , it the head of the Pccos and Iho
Canadian rivers.
The Tutara region , comprising much of
the western slope of Iho Sierra Nevada
range In eastern nnd southern California.
The Crater lake region in soulhoaslern
Oregon.
The Turtle mountain region in Bottinpau
end Itoletto counltos. North Daltota.
Iho Lost parlt region in Colorado.
The unoccupied lands about the head
waters of the Mississippi river lu northern
Minnesota.
Surveys are also being made of several
pieces In Wyoming , some of whlcn will
doubtless bo reserved tbo present year.
, 'J he zeal of the government In this import
ant matter deserves the active support of all
true friends of western Interests. The sup
pression of timber thieves , the commercial
pirates of western forests , cannot bo accom
plished too soon. The future welfare of the
great region demands reasonable protection
for natural forests.
Prstrilctlvo Wnrk of It.ilil
The clfrnntlo Imld cnglo-i of Duncan's Mills
nnd Cuudoro , Cnl. , liavo bcon mnlcltiR it
very llvoly , accorilliig to nil accounts , for
certain kinds of llvo stock and fowls In that
vicinity. 1'lRs , full-Brown Shanghai chlcic-

in tuo talons of those great birds. All tbo
sportsmen of the vicinity are kcjplng tholr

William Montgomery of the American Ex-
obnngo , who has bcon u ( , ( Jiizadoro and Dun
can's Mills on n vacation , returned bora with
what probably was the klnc of the o
guys tbo San Franclsc'j ICxamlnor. It was
the result of Ills prowess In tbo Rroat redwoods
woods near Duncan's Mllln. Tbo wings
trutchod thlrtoen foot from tip to lip and Its
tnlons were a sight to behold. Aa
well sunpoao a lot of hay
could pot. away from an Improved
liorso pitchfork as thnt any prey
of those monstrous birds could I'lll from
their grasp. They were almost ns strong as
the grappling hooks sum. down iu a river tor
n heavy object. Mr. Moiitnomnry told how
the latent loss was that of an Italian iminod
Cnslno , from whom the eagles had taken a
couple of pig * .
"Hut what surprised mo moro than any
thing else , " ho added , "win the immense
( tire of their nests In the redwoods and lha
inutcriul they u.to. I saw a nest in u gigantic
redwood there that , bid sticks in It as big iis
n Icncu rail. How the ongloi over lilted
them anil inruingcil lliom was a grontsur-
jiriso to mo , especially till 1 cnula In close
view of the u.igliH. This ni'st 1 spu.ik of was
in a trro that towered at least 'MO feet high.
" 'I'M re o stlcl's of the size 1 have mentioned

ot a triangle. They were arranged at the
comers , one on the ether , just llko a rail
/once , and were perfectly solid und secure.
On this was piled very cbarsu sticks and
heavy brush , making a complete nest. The
ingenuity displayed was roniurkible. Kaqlas
nro Hying about tbo points 1 have mentioned
inoU all tbo lime. The towns are only snvcu
miles apart. 'Iho region is favorable for tbo
great birds and they are mailing the most of
it. \Viir will bo on in earnest , liowovrr , If
they do not ceusu capturing ttio sheep , pigs

ranchers will begin tbo work of extermina

IjUilit'.itctl Mormon I'ropnrty.
\Vhat U probably the lust step In the con
troversy between the fo.lcral government
And the Mormon church was tnksn In the

ment. The motion stated that the judgments
received were linnl , ns no appeal had beau
taken , Tnu attorney for the church usked
tbat no order bo made , u-s un appeal would bo

Tint property Involved Is vuluoii at iroro

gaverat hundred iierei of valuable coal lands
and mines , tithing houses and church ofhcos.
Under Iho luw thu property or thu proceeds
thereof will bu devoted tu the maintenance
of the public Bchools , U'ullo U has always
boon the policy of tlio Mormon church to
carry tbolr litigation to the leder.il supreme

plan for the establishment of a municipal
saloon to bo under the complete control of

Whereas , It is believed by n largo number
of our people thnt this plan odors a complete

with all other attendant evils , now , there
fore , bo It
Ko3olved , That In case the city shall de
cide to try the proposed plan , the state's at
torney for this coutty is hereby directed not
to interfere with it In any manner whatever ,
but to aid and abet it by all means in his
power.
Mr. Lyon explained his plan as follows :
"It is reported to mo , of course the innvor
dooiu't know anything of ttio facts , that
there are thirty or forty saloons in Sioux
Falls , Now what I propose is that this city
go into the saloon business. I will furnish
funds to try the experiment. It won't ' cost
the city a cout. Allot the thirty or forty
saloons must bo closed , and in their place wo
will run n city saloon which could bo regu
lated by the most stringent laws. That they
would bo obeyed goes without question.
Minors would not bo allowed in the saloon.
It would bo closed at a certain hour. liy
this moans the city could clear &J5.000 a year.
Purn liquor would bo sold at reasonable
rates. "
Kov. A. H. Grant said :

Thcro are few industries which hnvo de
veloped moro rapidly during the past few
years thau thu manufacture and sale of sum
mer drinks. Everyone remembers when
Icmonado ana homo-browed root boor formed
the ntaplo beverages of the summer season.
And on important occasions , such as circus
days and fair time , n novelty in the shape of
rod leraonado was introduced ana Imbibed
with prodigal relish by the thirsty rabble.
The facilities for furnishing such refresh
ments were limited to n plno board sup
ported by a couple of X-shapod braces , n
small tub with n dozen glasses , and a girl
with a calico dross nud sloovcs rolled up
above the elbows , who alternately dispensed
the ruby beverage ana smtlod sweetly upon
some especially favored swam.
But the rod lemonade disappeared like
bustles and hoopskirts nnd ether fashions ,
and society demanded a moro stylish caterer
to its thirst. Every season brings with it a
long list of additions to the symposium of
fashionable drinks , for there are styles lu
drinks as well ns lu spring bonnets nnd car
nages and everything else upon which the
world depends for enjoyment , The soda
water fountain furnishes thu nucleus for the
majority of summer beverages , but at the
moro fashionable resorts a list of fancy drinks
is furnished , the rola'.lvo merits of which
can onlv bo ascertained by long experience.
Every fountain has its quota of "specials , "
the composition of which Itioy guard ns Jeal
ously as n physician preserves Iho secrecy of
n favorite proscription.
The egg drinks consiltuto the greater part
of the so-called "fancy" drinks. Among
these which have appeared with the present
season uro a choice variety of egg-noggs.
Sherry egg-nogs , Harrison's ' cgg-nogg ,
Cleveland's cpg-nogg , and Catnwba nud
claret egg-noggs. Egg phosphates , ogp cof
fee , egg sherbort , egg orangeade ana egg
strawberry are some of the oge drinks most
popular lu Omaha. The Tokav flip is an
especially palatable drink which is ono of tlio
specialties of a well known resort. H Is com
posed of Tokay wlno , sirup , cronm and an
egg well shaken with shaved lee and served
with nutmeg.
Thu Boston flip Is n mixture of brandy ,
shaved Ice , sirup and cream , well shaken and
served with nulincg.
Ice cream soda Is the favorite bovorngo of
Omaha women. Ono of the downtown
llrms uses four gallons of Ice cream a day for
this purpose and on especially warm cl.iya
twice that quantity.
The proved fruit flavors are generally
called for , although many customers prefer
lemon , vanilla or chocolate. According to
thn Judgment of ono of the oldest soda foun
tain attendants in the city the only way to
servo an ice cream soda i ? to thoroughly mix
the sirup and carbonated water and then
add the ice cronm , as it is impossible toforco
a line stream of soda water through the ice
cream first. Ladlos' favorite , ocean foam ,
flowing streams and Siberian ilip are also
popular beverages with the fair sex The
last named is composed of n half tumbler
full of shaved Ice , nn 'ounce each of pine-
npplo and orange sirups , a dram of acid
phosphate and n couple qf. drops of Angos
tura Hitters. Afior being well shaken the
fflass Is filled with sodu water and a thin
sllco oanh of orange and pineapple added to
omnhaslzo tlio flavor.
The phosphates are tlio most popular with
Iho multitude of any single drink. Nearly
all the- larger resorts claim to soil nearly as
many phosphates as all the other drinks com
bined.
The pUosnhato Is of the class known ns
" .still" drinks , and Is composed of calcium
magnesia and phosphoric acid. It issaid to
bo the most healthful of all drinks , nnd is
especially 'palatable in tbo morning. Tbo
usual flavor Is blood orange , although lemon ,
wild-grapojxnd celery are often called for.
Zaina punch , orgest a la egg , nmycoso
and cocoa frappa are a few of the latest
drinks , but people who have any regard for
the laws of gastromomy prefer to adhere to
their old favorites rather man lo tamper
with bcvoragos whoso very numois sufllciont
to superinduce nn attack of dyspepsia.
To bo able to properly compound all these
mixtures requires both practice and experi
ence , aud the skillful utienuants at the soda-
fountains in the moro fashionable resorts
command good salaries. In this city their
salaries range from 310 to535 per week. Ex
Ofllcor McMahon of the police tnrco was one of
the most export soda mixers in town
and hence his sobriquet of ttio "soda water
pollcoman. " The soda water experts are
almost without exception of tlio maiculino
gender. The experiment of employing fe
male attendants has boon tried but without
success. Somehow or ether the task of
shaking together the mysterious ingrcdiontb
of an egg-nogg oa Siberian flln , and tossing
the frothing liquid Sack and forth from ono
glass lo another proved to bo too abstruse for
the fcmlnma mind to graso. And then the
girls did not like the worlc , for It was Impos
sible for them to appear graceful and altrao
live wbilo Iho shaking process was in pro
gress.

morning cocktail. As n cencrnl thing tlio
liquor Is not used In its pure form , but cer
tain sirups are impregnated with brandy ,
rum and various wines HO that none of the
ong'nal flavor is lost. Roman punch , club
punch , egg sour , royal cabinet and egg
bhoruy are u few of the beverages which
may bo flavored to suit the taste of the pur
chaser.
