A LESSON FROM MEXICO. |

Destruction of the Forests Has Brought Drought and Desolation.

The early conquerors of this country and their followers of today have been very wasteful and careless in the dispo- | sition of their forests, with the result of accelerating the date when they will be compelled to face a problem of forest | preservation at considerable cost to | themselves. Denizens of the northwest are familiar with the rapidity witb which the valuable timber areas have been denuded, until now there is scarce- ly a merchantable tree between Ar- kansas and the Canadian line.

Many |

notes of warnings accompanied this de- |

struction of the northern soft wood for- | ests, but they fell upon unwilling ears. Only after it was too late to atop the mischief did the country begin to recog- nize the indirect value of forests to agri- culture and that no high degree of civ- ilization can exist permanently with- out some systematic and adequate forest management. In India the destruction of the forests commenced 1,000 years ago, and that country, having at last

seen the folly of such waste, is now en- |

gaged in the expensive undertaking of reforesting large areas.

The effect upon rainfall and the pro- ductiveness of the cultivated tracts has already been acknowledged by investi- gators. When Cortes first saw the val- ley of Mexico, it was covered with woods, not dense, but abundant, from the timber line on the volcanoes down to the water’s edge. The reckless cut- ting down of the forests by the Span- iards in the first century following the conquest in 1521 increased evaporation, caused the lakes to dry up, led to fre quent droughts, followed by occasional ficods, and changed the climate of Anahuac.

Any old rancher will tell stories of streams that flowed when he was a boy and will show the dry arroyo now. They all claim that the tablelands had

timber in considerable quntities where

now there are barren deserts.

This government has taken some steps

in the matter, but it is also necessary for the landowners to assist work by planting trees and irrigating them for a few years until they have taken good root. By using good judg- ment in selecting the trees and in plant- ing in a few years the which are now so frequent of years of droughts will soon become fewer and fewer until they finally cease. —Mon- terey Globe.

BEAUTIFUL MAGIC LAKE.

The Present Which an Earthquake Meade to Tennessee.

Reelfoot lake, which lies mostly in

Obion county and partly in Lake, is the

largest sheet of water in Tennessee, it |

being 40 miles in length and from 8 to 5 in width.

This lake, which evokes rapturous comments from even the most indiffer-

ent observer, was formed in a few min- | utes by an earthquake, which, accord. '

ing to the best authorities, occurred be- tween 2 and o’clock on morning, Nov. 16, 1811. There were two terrific shocks about 30 minutes apart and many lighter ones between and after. a deafening noise like thunder struck terror to the ear, the atmosphere was heavily laden with something like smoke and vivid and almost constant

flashes of lightning illuminated ths sur- ; rounding country, and in less time than |

it takes to write it thousands of acres

Saturday

The earth rocked violently, |

of land bad sunk far below the level of |

the mighty Mississippi.

The Father of Waters rushed into the sunken country, and the suction was so great that for three hours the river ran up stream, and rafts and boats below the lake were torn from their moorings and went whirling into the seething, maddening vortex. As soon

as the newly formed lake was filled the | river went majestically on its usuul |

course, leaving to Tennessee one of tke finest fishing resorts in the country, which is annually the Mecca of thon- sands of sportsmen.—Cincinnati Com- mercial Tribune.

Students’ Pranks,

In The National Magazine VW. H. Leavitt tells some amusing stories of the pranks of American art students in Paris. Once the students in one atelier hazed a newcomer by taking all his money, putting him into a cab and givy- ing the driver instructions where to take him. penniless student alighted and stood on the curb. ‘‘ Will you be so good as to light a match?’’ said the student. ‘I dropped a napoleon in tize cab and can’t find it.” Whereupon the driver whip- ped up and was away in a hurry.

A new student from Algiers amused the studio for awhile by imitating the sounds of various wild beasts and birds. Then the fickle fellows tired of it. So one day, having prepared a big box with breathing holes in it, they pnt the mimic in it and kept him there three days, at the end of which time he per- formed only by request.

A Tough Colored Man.

A recent railroad wreck in North Carolina was caused in a peculiar way. A colored man wanted to get a ride and tried to jump a train of empty flat cars. He missed the car and fell across the track, where the wheels of several cars passed directly over bim. His body threw two of the cars off the track, and the strangest part of it is that after the cars had run over him the man was able to get upand walk away. As he looked around him he was heard to exclaim: ‘Well, well! | never see de like sence I wuzbo’n. I°]l bet my week’s wages dat railroad’ll sue me fer damages. ’’—At- lanta Constitution.

Very happy is Curran’s reply to bias pompeus antagonist in debate who bad

loftily asserted that be was the guarcian |

of his own bouor, *‘l] wish the honorable aud learned gentleman joy of his siue-
