The V/hite Mountain Forests.
N occurrence of great importance was that in the
United States Senate recently , when Mr. Burnham ,
of New Hampshire , submitted the favorable report
of. the Committee on Forest Reservations on the bill
to establish a White Mountain forest reserve , a measure
which appropriates $5,000,000 , of which one-fifth becomes
Immediately available to establish a forest reserve of 1,000-
000 acres among the granite hills. The Senate ought to
pass it without question , and the House should concur as
heartily.
The scenic glory of New England is the magnificently-
wooded White Mountain region of Now Hampshire. But
how long could it continue to be so with the continuance
of the frightful slaughter of trees that has been going
on there ? Of all the States of the Union the cutting was
the greatest per acre in 3900 ; and it has lessened very little
since. Even now the ax is denuding the bases of great
mountains of their virgin forests , and spreading desolation
and ugliness in its wake. A strong hand must stop this
work or the beauty and charm of the locality will vanish ,
perhaps forever.
Nor is the question one of aesthetic pleasure only. Into
It comes the very practical matter of stream regulation
affecting very closely the Merrimac valley cities of New
Hampshire and Masw.ehusptts. The five important rivers
of the section either rise in the White Mountains or are
fed by tributaries that originate there. The New England
Congressmen should stand as a unit for this bill that means
so much for the people , and there Is no good reason why it
should not succeed. Boston Journal.
Vertical HaneJwriting.
Chicago Board of Education iias discussed the
THE of the system of vertical writing ,
taught in the city schools. This innovation , intro
duced throughout the country about ten years ago , is
a fad that should be dispensed with. It has no justification
in the reason of things. The whimsical notion is about as
silly as anything could be and .survive a whole decade.
What sort of sense is there In teaching a system of
writing in schools that must be unlearned and learned
again in practical life ? No business house cares to have
its books and accounts kept in the vertical style. Business
men will not have it. So that after the pupil gets through
public school he must go to a commercial school and learn
how to write a plain business hand.
The passing fancy of the faddist in the schools is the
cause of the poor penmanship of the younger generation.
In trying to effect a compromise between the ridiculous
vertical method and a sensible system , the chirogrnphy of
the average school boy resembles the manuscript of Horace
Greeley. How did the notion originate ? No one knows.
Probably the enterprising gentlemen who make and sell
writing books could give a hint. Our system of public
education is , in the last analysis , highly manipulated by
eur fellow citizens who manufacture school books for a
living. St. Louis World.
The Celebration of Birthdays.

WHY
day marks a diminution of the remaining span
and brings him nearer to the grave , and for that
reason , if living be worth while , each successive birthday
should be the occasion of profounder sorrow than the last.
If , on the contrary , life be not worth the living , why
should a man mark with a white stone the anniversary o'f
the day on which he commenced the journey through this
dark world and wide ? Why should he celebrate the event
of his being pitched into this tumultuous existence , thick
with troubles ?
Whatever horn of the dilemma he chooses , whether he
AN OCEAN MYSTERY.
Of all unexplained happenings , none
seems so mysterious as do those of the
sea , for the waves keep their secrets.
Among the many nautical mysteries
which have been the talk of seafaring
folk , that of the Mary Celeste has for
thirty years taken the lead. All sorts
of explanations have been attempted ,
and the incidents have been used as
the basis of a well-known sea novel ,
yet no satisfactory solution has been
offered. A writer in the New York
Evening Post has recently summed
up the facts of the case , and strange
ones they arc. The Mary Celeste was
unlucky from the first. She was
launched in 18(59. ( Bad fortune attend
ed her very start in the world , for , be
ing built of green timber , she stuck
on the ways and was floated only at
great expense. Her voyages were un
profitable , and after a few years her
captain , discouraged by continual loss ,
took his life.
On Dec. 4 , 187. ? , the Mary Celeste ,
bound for Genoa , was found by the
British vessel Dei Gratia about mid
way between the Azores and Lisbon ,
adrift and abandoned. She was run
ning under sail , her long boat was
gone , and the chronometer and the
ship's papers were missing. It was ev
ident she had been deserted in haste.
By the log book it was judged she
had been cruising without a crew for
eight or nine days.
The vessel was searched carefully ,
but the mystery only deepened. A
naked , dark-stained cutlass which was
found on the cabin floor for a time
caused a suspicion of mutiny , but a
later examination showed the stains
to be only rust. There wore no traces
of strife. On the cabin table lay cloth ,
needle , scissors and thimble evidences
of a woman's suddenly interrupted
sewing. The pumps were dry. tho car
go Intact , and nothing wrong with the
spars or rigging.
The brig was taken to Gibraltar and
investigations begun. There was an
attempt to prove that the captain in
tended to lose his ship on one of the
reefs of the Azores , but the caso fell
through. Obvious objections to this
theory were the presence of the cap
tain's wife and child on board and th
hold that life be or be not worth living , the man whc
rejoices on his birthday lacks logic. The true philosopher
sees in his birthday a suggestion for serious and rather sad
reflection on the purposes and the pursuits , the ideals and
the realizations of life. He compares his premise with his
performance , his hopes with his achievements , and the
comparison , in the case of an honest man who does not
lie to himself , is seldom cheering. '
What , indeed , is n birthday more than any other day :
Each clay adds twenty-four hours to the talc , and the natal
day is neither longer nor shorter than any of its 30 J
brethren. Lives are not righly measured by years , but by
achievements. The interval between birthdays is an arbi
trary unit. Not that we have survived another year , but
that we have done deeds worth while , is the important
matter. There is no glory and no reason for rejoicing
in merely not having died , yet what more than that do
most of us celebrate on our birthdays ? San Francisco
Bulletin.
Russia and India. .
USSIA cannot have the least interest in possessing
India , or even a part of it ; but a campaign against
India represents Russia's only means of defense in n
war with England. Of course , Russia does not wish j
to undertake another war ; it did not wish to go to vrnr j
with Japan , and it will not itself begin a war ; btit Russia
will , if it is attacked by England , seize naturally upon the
only possible diversion open to Russia , which is a cam
paign against India. If Russia has not seized upon this
diversion in England's former Avars , the reason thereof lay
in grounds which no longer exist. At that time Russia
had not gained a firm footing either in Central Asia or in j
Trans-Caucasia , the latter of which had not been brought j
under Russia's yoke at the time of t ie Crimean War. But \
now both those regions are stages in Russia's hands on its
line of advance towards India ; they are connected by a j
direct system of railways with the whole of Russia , and :
they serve as the points of concentration of troops which
are quite sufficient to undertake a campaign against India ,
and which , ns may be taken for granted , is completely
prepared for such a campaign. Naturally , it is just the
possibility , and not the impossibility , of a campaign against
India which at critical moments exercises on the British
Government that diplomatic restraint and carefulness
which are so displeasing to the English press and Chauvin
ists , but which are appreciated at their proper worth by
sensible Englishmen. London Globe.
The Wounded Eagle of Waterloo.
IGIITY-N1NE years have passed sinqe the great Na
poleon the incarnate god of war was defeated and
finally overthrown on the battlefield of Waterloo. In
this epoch-making battle French valor ahone brilliant
ly , and although the eagles of France went down in disaster
no dishonor attached to their defeat. Recently a monu
ment in memory of Napoleon's soldiers who fell at Water
loo was unveiled on the field of that historic struggle. The
monument was placed near the farmhouse where the "Old
Guard" made Its last stand. The design of the memorial
is a striking one a wounded eagle surmounting a tall
shaft. Since Waterloo the eagles of France have been
stricken even more grievously than they were by Welling
ton in 1815. In 1870 an army of 173,000 men surrendered
at Metz to the German .
conqueror. It is impossible to con
ceive of the first Napoleon giving up a fight with an army
of 171.000 valorous Frenchmen to follow his lead. The
"Old Guard" of 1815 was composed of men who were will
ing to die , but never to surrender. France honors herself
in honoring the vanquished heroes of Waterloo. Sentiment
is not extinct In the Gallic heart. It has survived Sedan
and Metz. The "Wounded "
Eagle" may one day recover
his strength and revive the glories of the "Old Guard. "
Baltimore Sun.
risking of all lives in the long boat ,
so far away from land.
The most possible solution is offered
by the writer in the Post. He believes
that the key Is to be found in the
nature of the cargo , in the quality of
wood in which it was cased , and in
the position of the fore hatch.
When the Mary Celeste was boarded ,
her sails gave evidence that she was
abandoned while running before a
strong breeze , and had boon rounded
to in order to launch the lifeboat. Her
fore hatch was lying bottom side up
on the deck. Her cargo was alcohol
stored in red oak barrels. Red oak
is very porous , and permits the es
cape of fumes under the pressure of
high temperature. These alcoholic
fumes mixing with the foul air of the
hold may have generated a gas which
blew off the fore hatch. Volumes of
vapor pouring out would have cnusod
the captain to believe the ship was on
fire. Accordingly , he lost no time in
taking to the boat , intending to lie out
at a safe distance. There was no firo ,
but the vessel , caught by the wind ,
sprang away , and left the long boat
to make a tantalizing and hopeless
stern chase , and finally , no doubt , to
sink beneath the waves. No one will
ever know , but this is what may have
happened.
The later adventures of the Mary
Celeste were quite in keeping with her
ill-starred early promise. She was sold
for debt , and proved a bad bargain.
Then she was wrecked off Haiti , and
her officers were arrested for intention
al destruction of the brig. The case
in barratry was dropped , but the sus
picion still lingers that the owners and
the ca'ptain had an understanding that
the vessel should never roach port.
NEW CURE FOR INSOMNIA.
Complaint Will Disappear if Yon PufF
on an Empty Pipe Before .Retiring.
Among the recent discoveries acci
dentally made is the fact that insom
nia may be cured if the person af
flicted will but spend a few minutes
before retiring each night puffing an
empty tobacco pipe. The remedy is
therefore available to those who do
not smoke , as well as to the devotees
of the habit , for it is not necessary
that the pipe shall have been used by
a tobacco smoker. To smokers the
remedy Involves no cost whatever , but
of non-smokers the capital outlay of
the price of a pipe is required. It
must be a Avoodcn pipe , and curved ,
not straight.
Having retired for the night , the sufi i
forer should lie perfectly flat on his
back , discarding pillow rests , and puff
steadily at an empty pipe until he feels
thoroughly drowsy. The desired re
sult usually is achieved after from
about sixty to 100 puffs have been i
made. The puffing should be done {
slowly , with a deep inhaling move- !
mont. During the eutire operation tho ;
pipe should not be removed , as each !
displacing and replacing movement |
tends to wakefulncss. '
Those capable of great concentration j
of thought should , if smokers , imagine
they see volumes of smoke , and those ,
who eschew the burning weed will be '
helped by counting the puffs.
As sloop is often successfully wooed j
while yet the pipe is in the mouth , ,
bowls of meershaum or clay are not '
recommended , since those are liable to .
be broken when the coming of slumber
allows tho pipe to slide from the
mouth. Nervous people may be re
assured that there is no danger in fall- !
ing asleep with the stem edge of a
curved pipe caught between one's
teeth. Sleep always occasions the grip !
to be removed. That may hold also j
of straight pipes , but for other and
obvious reasons these are less suitable
than those with curved stems.

Almost the entire day and a night ses
sion of the Senate Tuesday were spent
in consideration of the Indian appropria
tion bill , which finally was passed with
out division. After a lengthy debate on
the committee amendment prohibiting
the use of tribal funds in' the support of
seci rian schools , the provision was
amended by Mr. McCumber to permit
individual members of tribes to use their
proportion of funds in support of such
schools. Mr. Kearns of Utah made an
impassioned attack on the Mormon
church. Mr. IJailoy announced that he

ures. The Indian and postoflice appro
priation bills were sent to conference ,
and conference reports on the fortifica

The Senate on Thursday passed the
sundry civil appropriation bill , carrying
about § 08.000.000. and the hill for the
incorporation of the American Academy

its provision for abolishing the canal
commission , and another conference was
ordered. A conference on the river and
harbor bill was ordered , and the appro
priations committee reported the general
deficiency bill. Senator Ileyburn called
up the pur food bill , and Senator Platt
offored several amendments to th * meas
ure , which , he admitted , would leave lit
tle of the original bill. Senator Dolliver's
